### Mapping
|
||||
|
||||
Before calling `watch` or `get` (or the single variants), you can use `map` to transform
|
||||
the result.

### Deferring get vs watch
|
||||
If you want to make your query consumable as either a `Future` or a `Stream`,
|
||||
you can refine your return type using one of the `Selectable` abstract base classes;
|
||||
```dart
|
||||
// Exposes `get` and `watch`
|
||||
MultiSelectable<Todo> pageOfTodos(int page, {int pageSize = 10}) {
|
||||
return select(todos)..limit(pageSize, offset: page - 1);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Exposes `getSingle` and `watchSingle`
|
||||
SingleSelectable<Todo> todoById(int id) =>
|
||||
select(todos)..where((t) => t.id.equals(id));
|
||||
|
||||
// Exposes `getSingleOrNull` and `watchSingleOrNull`
|
||||
SingleOrNullSelectable<Todo> todoFromExternalLink(int id) =>
|
||||
select(todos)..where((t) => t.id.equals(id));
|
||||
```
|
||||
These base classes don't have query-building or `map` methods, signaling to the consumer
|
||||
that they are complete results.
|
||||
|
||||
If you need more complex queries with joins or custom columns, see [this site]({{ "../Advanced Features/joins.md" | pageUrl }}).
