Datomic 新手问题 - 当一个事实发生变化时对相关事实进行建模

Question

如果我有一个客户实体，并且他们在时间 t1 从具有以下事实的地址移动：

address_line_1 = "唐宁街 10 号"
address_line_2 = "Westminster"
城市="London"

到新地址和时间 t2，这些事实：

address_line_1 = "1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW"
城市="Washington DC"

如何避免 t2 之后的地址看起来像：

address_line_1 = "1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW"
address_line_2 = "Westminster"
城市="Washington DC"

我能想到的选项：

在 t2 断言 address_line_2 = "" 以重置或清除它。
将地址作为它自己的实体指向一个新地址实体，该实体只有两个事实：address_line_1 = "1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW" 和 city = "Washington DC" 断言。
在 t2 断言一个新事实，例如 "moved_house" = true 来表示他们的地址不同。

我的想法：

选项 1 似乎依赖于 "knowing" 之前一直设置的可能不再正确的内容，因此您可以将其删除。
选项 2 似乎最好 - 但确实意味着定义的网络比我预期的要多。
选项 3 看起来很糟糕！

任何其他人对此的想法将不胜感激:)

Answer 1

您可以使用选项 2 作为组件实体。

这是一个示例：

;; schema
;;
(d/transact conn [{:db/ident      :client/address
                  :db/cardinality :db.cardinality/one
                  :db/valueType   :db.type/ref
                  :db/isComponent true}
                  {:db/ident      :address/line1
                  :db/valueType   :db.type/string
                  :db/cardinality :db.cardinality/one}
                  {:db/ident      :address/country
                  :db/valueType   :db.type/string
                  :db/cardinality :db.cardinality/one}])

;; create a new client with address - 1 Main Street
;;
(d/transact conn [{:db/id         (d/tempid :db.part/user -1)
                  :client/address {:address/line1   "1 Main Street"
                                   :address/country "USA"}}])

;; datomic will return you two entity id.  One is for :client/address
;; and another one for :address/line1 and :address/country
;;
(d/q '[:find (pull ?e [*])
      :where [?e :client/address]]
    (d/db conn))
;; => [[{:db/id 17592186045418, :client/address {:db/id 17592186045419, :address/line1 "1 Main Street", :address/country "USA"}}]]

;; now update its client address to 9 Kings Road.
;;
(d/transact conn [{:db/id          17592186045418
                  :client/address {:address/line1 "9 Kings Road"}}])

;; 17592186045418 will then have a :client/address 
;; pointing to a new entity with the new address
;;
(d/q '[:find (pull ?e [*])
      :where [?e :client/address]]
    (d/db conn))
;; => [[{:db/id 17592186045418, :client/address {:db/id 17592186045421, :address/line1 "9 Kings Road"}}]]
