Usage with Zod (and rather complex discriminated unions)

[severi]

Im trying to find a way to integrate Electrodb to our application. Currently we use zod for handling typing/data validation. Our data models can be rather complex and we for example quite extensively use discriminated unions.

If we want to take Electrodb into use we would need somewhat duplicate our model definitions (zod + electrodb entity attributes). Does anyone else have experience with this, and are there any ways to reduce the amount of copy paste needed.

Would there for example be some simple way to only define some basic set of attributes for electrodb entities (for example those used for partition keys, sortkeys, etc, but also allow "any other elements" to be stored to the object (currently they are removed automatically).

Wondering which route you took @severi, care to share you experience?
