What are the best practices for designing efficient queries in a TinyDB database?
* Use indexes to speed up queries on frequently accessed attributes. Indexes can be created using the create_index()
method.
* Minimize the number of nested queries, as these can be slower to execute. Instead, use multiple queries to retrieve the necessary data and then combine the results as needed.
* Use the search()
method instead of get()
when searching for data based on a specific attribute value. The search()
method is more efficient for larger datasets.
* Avoid using regular expressions in queries, as these can be slow to execute. Instead, use exact matches or partial matches with the contains()
method.
* Consider the size and complexity of the database when designing queries. In some cases, it may be more efficient.
