Examples

The following example creates the stamps database and the hobbies database, and then moves the stamps database into the hobbies database:

try
{
    Field<RefV> refField = Field.At("ref").To<RefV>();

    Value stamps = await client.Query(
        CreateDatabase(Obj("name", "stamps"))
    );
    Value hobbies = await client.Query(
        CreateDatabase(Obj("name", "hobbies"))
    );
    Value result = await client.Query(
        MoveDatabase(stamps.Get(refField), hobbies.Get(refField))
    );
    Console.WriteLine(result);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"ERROR: {e.Message}");
}
