Ideally, we want the songs to be idempotent, so create is not a good player in this regard. Why not extending create_or_update with a noupdate argument?

Because a noupdate record shouldn't be updated.

BTW, idempotence is guaranteed by the if not record condition.

👍 with @guewen You can extending create_or_update function.
noupdateflag don't indicate that we never want to update a record.
It indicates we don't want update the record automatically with a module update.
Here, you call "manually" the create_or_update function, so if you don't want to update an existing record, just don't call the create_or_update function if record already exists.

Also, I would like to understand why you need this feature here.

  • If you need a "module" record with noupdate, you create it directly in your module with noupdate.
  • If you need an external record like __setup__.***, you just need to check in your script if the record exists before create it.

It makes sense to me that a noupdate field can't be updated, I created a dedicated function for that reason. But that's not a big deal, I'll do whatever you want me to do.
