Missing key value in the case of simple key/value pairing

[Thisisjuke]

I wanted to do a simple key value to handle common error strings inside my forms:

keystatic.config.js

formCommon: collection({
            label: 'Form Common Texts',
            path: 'src/modules/keystatic/content/form-common/*/',
            slugField: 'key',
            schema: {
                key: fields.text({
                    label: 'Key',
                    validation: { length: { min: 1 } },
                }),
                value: fields.text({
                    label: 'Value',
                    validation: { length: { min: 1 } },
                }),
            },
        }),

When log the content of my data, I have :

I updated my package.json to:

    "@keystatic/core": "^0.0.98",
    "@keystatic/next": "^0.0.7",

Now, I have to do this:

const col = await reader.collections[resource].read(slug)
if (col && 'key' in col && col?.key === null) {
    col.key = slug
}
return col

It's easy to remap it because I just asked .read(slug) .

Expected Behavior

I want to have the slug by default when I ask for a key + value object so I don't have to set the key (slug) by myself.

Current Behavior

Slug is null.

Hey!

The slug is not part of the data generated by Keystatic — since it's effectively stored as the file/folder name.

A common approach here when gathering data for a collection is to "augment" the object with something that stores the slug, if you need it:

const col = await reader.collections[resource].read(slug)
return { ...col, key: slug }

That way the key property will be available alongside the rest of the data.

Hope it helps!
