Querying multiple documents at once

Hello everyone, I'm sorry I don't have a lot of experience in BE development-- I'm mainly a frontend dev. Is it possible to query a set of documents from the db with the argument being an array of ids rather than just one?

If you have ids, map over them concurrently. It'll be real fast.

const docs = await Promise.all(ids.map(id => {
  return db.get(id)
}))

const docs = await Promise.all(ids.map(id => {
  return db.get(id)
}))

I'm sure there's an upper bound here, but I've done this with hundreds of ids without a problem. Also, no need to apologize for being a frontend dev here, I'm the same 🙂
