models.sequence_number module

class models.sequence_number.SequenceNumber(timestamp=None)

Bases: object

Implementation of the ‘SequenceNumber’ model.

Sequence Number for each change for MongoDB Entity.

Attributes:

timestamp (long|int): Timestamp field of the change event.

Mongodb associates each change with a timestamp type which is a 64 bit value where: The most significant 32 bits are a time_t value (seconds since the Unix epoch), the least significant 32 bits are an incrementing ordinal for operations within a given second. Note that the timestamps of events are not consecutive numbers and also we can have multiple colocated changes entries for same timestamp.

classmethod from_dictionary(dictionary)

Creates an instance of this model from a dictionary

Args:

dictionary (dictionary): A dictionary representation of the object as obtained from the deserialization of the server’s response. The keys MUST match property names in the API description.

Returns:

object: An instance of this structure class.
