Database Schema for "D" Entity Tracking

Core Tables:
1. `d_entities`: Stores base properties of each "D" unit.
2. `d_properties`: Dynamic key-value pairs for customizable attributes.
3. `user_interactions`: Logs actions (e.g., edits, deletions) with timestamps.
4. `d_versions`: Version history for rollback or auditing.

SQL Schema:

-- Create tables with constraints
CREATE TABLE d_entities (
entity_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
description TEXT,
created_at TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
updated_at TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
is_active BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE,
CONSTRAINT unique_name UNIQUE (name)
);

CREATE TABLE d_properties (
property_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
entity_id INTEGER REFERENCES d_entities(entity_id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
key VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
value JSONB NOT NULL,
data_type VARCHAR(50) CHECK (data_type IN ('string', 'number', 'boolean', 'json')),
CONSTRAINT unique_property UNIQUE (entity_id, key)
);

CREATE TABLE user_interactions (
interaction_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
entity_id INTEGER REFERENCES d_entities(entity_id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
user_id INTEGER NOT NULL, -- Assume users table exists
action VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL CHECK (action IN ('create', 'update', 'delete', 'view')),
details JSONB,
ip_address VARCHAR(45),
created_at TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);

CREATE TABLE d_versions (
version_id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
entity_id INTEGER REFERENCES d_entities(entity_id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
version_number INTEGER NOT NULL,
snapshot JSONB NOT NULL, -- Serialized state of the entity
changed_by INTEGER, -- User ID
change_reason TEXT,
created_at TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);

-- Indexes for performance
CREATE INDEX idx_d_properties_entity ON d_properties(entity_id);
CREATE INDEX idx_user_interactions_entity ON user_interactions(entity_id);
CREATE INDEX idx_d_versions_entity ON d_versions(entity_id);

Example Queries:

SELECT d.name, d.description, jsonb_object_agg(dp.key, dp.value) as properties
FROM d_entities d
LEFT JOIN d_properties dp ON d.entity_id = dp.entity_id
WHERE d.is_active = TRUE
GROUP BY d.entity_id;

- Fetch version history for a specific entity:

SELECT v.version_number, v.snapshot, v.created_at, u.username
FROM d_versions v
LEFT JOIN users u ON v.changed_by = u.user_id
WHERE v.entity_id = 123
ORDER BY v.version_number DESC;

Automated "D" Asset Generation with Command-Line Tools

Workflow 1: SVG Generation with Inkscape
Inkscape’s command-line interface (`inkscape`) can render SVG templates with dynamic attributes. The following bash script generates a set of "D" icons with varying sizes and colors.

Script (`generate_d_icons.sh`):

#!/bin/bash
