+# Datasource Mapping Feature
+
+## Overview
+
+The `datasourceMapping` feature provides a centralized mechanism to configure which datasources (drivers) are used by different parts of your application. Instead of configuring `datasource` on every individual object, you can define routing rules based on:
+
+- **Namespace**: Route all objects from a package namespace to a specific datasource
+- **Package ID**: Route all objects from a specific package to a datasource  
+- **Object Pattern**: Route objects matching a name pattern (glob-style) to a datasource
+- **Default**: Fallback rule for objects that don't match any other rules
+
+This feature is inspired by industry-proven patterns from Django's Database Router and Kubernetes' StorageClass.
+
+## Priority Resolution
+
+The system resolves datasources in the following priority order (first match wins):
+
+1. **Object's explicit `datasource` field** (if set and not 'default')
+2. **DatasourceMapping rules** (evaluated in order or by priority)
+3. **Package's `defaultDatasource`** (from manifest)
+4. **Global default driver**
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Basic Example
+
+```typescript
+// apps/server/objectstack.config.ts
+import { defineStack } from '@objectstack/spec';
+import { DriverPlugin } from '@objectstack/runtime';
+import { TursoDriver } from '@objectstack/driver-turso';
+import { InMemoryDriver } from '@objectstack/driver-memory';
+import CrmApp from '../../examples/app-crm/objectstack.config';
+import TodoApp from '../../examples/app-todo/objectstack.config';
+
+export default defineStack({
+  manifest: {
+    id: 'com.objectstack.server',
+    name: 'ObjectStack Server',
+    version: '1.0.0',
+  },
+  
+  plugins: [
+    new ObjectQLPlugin(),
+    new DriverPlugin(new TursoDriver({ url: 'file:./data/system.db' }), 'turso'),
+    new DriverPlugin(new InMemoryDriver(), 'memory'),
+    new AppPlugin(CrmApp),    // namespace: 'crm'
+    new AppPlugin(TodoApp),   // namespace: 'todo'
+  ],
+  
+  // 🎯 Centralized datasource routing configuration
+  datasourceMapping: [
+    // System core objects → Turso (persistent storage)
+    { objectPattern: 'sys_*', datasource: 'turso' },
+    { namespace: 'auth', datasource: 'turso' },
+    
+    // CRM application → Memory (dev/test environment)
+    { namespace: 'crm', datasource: 'memory' },
+    
+    // Todo application → Turso (production storage)
+    { namespace: 'todo', datasource: 'turso' },
+    
+    // Temporary/cache objects → Memory
+    { objectPattern: 'temp_*', datasource: 'memory' },
+    { objectPattern: 'cache_*', datasource: 'memory' },
+    
+    // Default fallback → Turso
+    { default: true, datasource: 'turso' },
+  ],
+});
+```
+
+### Advanced: Priority-Based Rules
+
+```typescript
+datasourceMapping: [
+  // High priority rules (lower number = higher priority)
+  { objectPattern: 'sys_*', datasource: 'turso', priority: 10 },
+  { namespace: 'auth', datasource: 'turso', priority: 10 },
+  
+  // Medium priority rules
+  { package: 'com.example.crm', datasource: 'memory', priority: 50 },
+  { namespace: 'crm', datasource: 'memory', priority: 50 },
+  
+  // Low priority rules
+  { objectPattern: 'temp_*', datasource: 'memory', priority: 100 },
+  
+  // Default fallback (lowest priority)
+  { default: true, datasource: 'turso', priority: 1000 },
+]
+```
+
+### Package-Level Configuration
+
+You can also set a default datasource at the package level:
+
+```typescript
+// examples/app-crm/objectstack.config.ts
+export default defineStack({
+  manifest: {
+    id: 'com.example.crm',
+    namespace: 'crm',
+    version: '3.0.0',
+    defaultDatasource: 'memory',  // All CRM objects use memory by default
+  },
+  
+  objects: Object.values(objects),  // All objects inherit 'memory'
+  // ...
+});
+```
+
+## Rule Types
+
+### 1. Namespace Matching
+
+Routes all objects from a specific namespace to a datasource:
+
+```typescript
+{ namespace: 'crm', datasource: 'memory' }
+```
+
+All objects in the `crm` namespace (e.g., `crm__account`, `crm__contact`) will use the `memory` datasource.
+
+### 2. Package Matching
+
+Routes all objects from a specific package to a datasource:
+
+```typescript
+{ package: 'com.example.analytics', datasource: 'clickhouse' }
+```
+
+All objects defined in the `com.example.analytics` package will use the `clickhouse` datasource.
+
+### 3. Pattern Matching (Glob-Style)
+
+Routes objects matching a name pattern to a datasource:
+
+```typescript
+{ objectPattern: 'sys_*', datasource: 'turso' }
+{ objectPattern: 'temp_*', datasource: 'memory' }
+{ objectPattern: 'cache_*', datasource: 'redis' }
+```
+
+Supports wildcards:
+- `*` matches any characters
+- `?` matches a single character
+
+### 4. Default Fallback
+
+Catches all objects that don't match any other rules:
+
+```typescript
+{ default: true, datasource: 'turso' }
+```
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### 1. System vs Application Data Separation
+
+```typescript
+datasourceMapping: [
+  // System/core data → PostgreSQL (ACID, durable)
+  { objectPattern: 'sys_*', datasource: 'postgres' },
+  { namespace: 'auth', datasource: 'postgres' },
+  
+  // Application data → Memory (fast, ephemeral)
+  { default: true, datasource: 'memory' },
+]
+```
+
+### 2. Multi-Environment Setup
+
+```typescript
+datasourceMapping: [
+  // Development: use memory for speed
+  { namespace: 'crm', datasource: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production' ? 'turso' : 'memory' },
+  
+  // Production: persistent storage
+  { default: true, datasource: 'turso' },
+]
+```
+
+### 3. Performance Optimization
+
+```typescript
+datasourceMapping: [
+  // Hot data → Redis (cache)
+  { objectPattern: 'cache_*', datasource: 'redis' },
+  { objectPattern: 'session_*', datasource: 'redis' },
+  
+  // Analytics → ClickHouse (OLAP)
+  { namespace: 'analytics', datasource: 'clickhouse' },
+  
+  // Regular data → PostgreSQL (OLTP)
+  { default: true, datasource: 'postgres' },
+]
+```
+
+### 4. Testing Isolation
+
+```typescript
+datasourceMapping: [
+  // Test objects → In-memory (no persistence)
+  { objectPattern: 'test_*', datasource: 'memory' },
+  
+  // Production objects → Turso
+  { default: true, datasource: 'turso' },
+]
+```
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **Centralized Configuration**: All datasource routing in one place
+2. **No Object Modification**: Change datasources without touching object definitions
+3. **Environment-Specific**: Different datasources per environment (dev/test/prod)
+4. **Pattern-Based**: Flexible glob patterns for batch configuration
+5. **Explicit Override**: Objects can still override with explicit `datasource` field
+
+## Migration from Individual Configuration
+
+### Before (Manual Configuration)
+
+```typescript
+// Every object needs datasource field
+const Account = defineObject({
+  name: 'account',
+  datasource: 'memory',  // Repeated everywhere
+  fields: { /* ... */ },
+});
+
+const Contact = defineObject({
+  name: 'contact',
+  datasource: 'memory',  // Repeated everywhere
+  fields: { /* ... */ },
+});
+```
+
+### After (Centralized Configuration)
+
+```typescript
+// Configure once at stack level
+datasourceMapping: [
+  { namespace: 'crm', datasource: 'memory' },
+]
+
+// Objects are clean
+const Account = defineObject({
+  name: 'account',
+  // No datasource field needed
+  fields: { /* ... */ },
+});
+```
+
+## Debugging
+
+Enable debug logging to see datasource resolution:
+
+```typescript
+// ObjectQL will log:
+// "Resolved datasource from mapping: object=crm__account, datasource=memory"
+// "Resolved datasource from package manifest: object=task, package=com.example.todo, datasource=turso"
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Use Specific Rules First**: Place high-priority rules at the top
+2. **Always Have a Default**: Include a default fallback rule
+3. **Group by Purpose**: Organize rules by function (system, cache, analytics, etc.)
+4. **Document Decisions**: Add comments explaining why each rule exists
+5. **Test Thoroughly**: Verify that objects route to expected datasources

+# Datasource Mapping Feature - Implementation Summary
+
+## Overview
+
+Successfully implemented a centralized datasource mapping mechanism that allows developers to configure which datasources (drivers) different parts of the application use, without modifying individual object definitions.
+
+## What Was Implemented
+
+### 1. Schema Definitions (packages/spec/src/stack.zod.ts)
+
+- **DatasourceMappingRuleSchema**: Zod schema defining routing rules with support for:
+  - `namespace`: Match objects by namespace (e.g., 'crm', 'auth')
+  - `package`: Match objects by package ID (e.g., 'com.example.crm')
+  - `objectPattern`: Match objects by name pattern with glob support (e.g., 'sys_*', 'temp_*')
+  - `default`: Fallback rule for unmatched objects
+  - `datasource`: Target datasource name
+  - `priority`: Optional priority for rule ordering (lower = higher priority)
+
+- **ObjectStackDefinitionSchema**: Added `datasourceMapping` field to accept an array of routing rules
+
+### 2. Manifest Extension (packages/spec/src/kernel/manifest.zod.ts)
+
+- **ManifestSchema**: Added `defaultDatasource` field to allow package-level default datasource configuration
+
+### 3. ObjectQL Engine Logic (packages/objectql/src/engine.ts)
+
+- **Storage**: Added private fields for `datasourceMapping` rules and `manifests` registry
+- **setDatasourceMapping()**: Public method to configure mapping rules
+- **getDriver()**: Updated to implement 4-tier resolution priority:
+  1. Object's explicit `datasource` field (if not 'default')
+  2. DatasourceMapping rules (namespace/package/pattern matching)
+  3. Package's `defaultDatasource` from manifest
+  4. Global default driver
+- **resolveDatasourceFromMapping()**: Evaluates rules in priority order and returns matched datasource
+- **matchPattern()**: Implements glob-style pattern matching supporting `*` and `?` wildcards
+- **registerApp()**: Updated to store manifests for defaultDatasource lookup
+
+### 4. Runtime Integration (packages/runtime/src/app-plugin.ts)
+
+- **AppPlugin.start()**: Calls `ql.setDatasourceMapping()` when `datasourceMapping` is present in the stack definition
+
+### 5. Tests (packages/objectql/src/datasource-mapping.test.ts)
+
+Created comprehensive test suite covering:
+- Namespace-based routing
+- Pattern-based routing (glob wildcards)
+- Priority ordering
+- Default fallback rules
+- Explicit object datasource overrides
+
+### 6. Documentation
+
+- **DATASOURCE_MAPPING.md**: Complete feature documentation with examples and use cases
+- **IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md**: This file
+
+## Architecture Highlights
+
+### Priority Resolution Order
+
+```
+1. Object.datasource (explicit) 
+   ↓ if 'default' or undefined
+2. datasourceMapping rules
+   ↓ if no match
+3. Manifest.defaultDatasource
+   ↓ if not set
+4. Global default driver
+```
+
+### Pattern Matching
+
+The glob-style pattern matcher supports:
+- `*` (matches any characters): `sys_*` → `sys_user`, `sys_role`, etc.
+- `?` (matches single character): `temp_?` → `temp_1`, `temp_a`, etc.
+- Exact matches: `account` → only `account`
+
+### Industry Inspiration
+
+This implementation draws from proven patterns:
+- **Django's Database Router**: Multi-database routing based on app labels
+- **Kubernetes StorageClass**: Declarative storage backend selection
+- **Salesforce External Objects**: Datasource routing by object suffix

+  manifest: {
+    id: 'com.objectstack.server',
+    name: 'ObjectStack Server',
+    version: '1.0.0',
+  },
+  
+  plugins: [
+    new ObjectQLPlugin(),
+    new DriverPlugin(new TursoDriver({ url: 'file:./data/system.db' }), 'turso'),
+    new DriverPlugin(new InMemoryDriver(), 'memory'),
+    new AppPlugin(CrmApp),
+  ],
+  
+  datasourceMapping: [
+    // System objects → Turso
+    { objectPattern: 'sys_*', datasource: 'turso' },
+    { namespace: 'auth', datasource: 'turso' },
+    
+    // CRM → Memory
+    { namespace: 'crm', datasource: 'memory' },
+    
+    // Default → Turso
+    { default: true, datasource: 'turso' },
+  ],
+});
+```
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **Centralized Configuration**: All datasource routing in one place
+2. **No Object Modification**: Change datasources without touching object definitions  
+3. **Environment Flexibility**: Different datasources per environment (dev/test/prod)
+4. **Pattern-Based Batch Config**: Configure multiple objects with one rule
+5. **Backward Compatible**: Existing explicit `datasource` fields still work and take priority
+
+## Testing
+
+The test suite validates:
+- ✅ Namespace matching works correctly
+- ✅ Pattern matching with wildcards works correctly
+- ✅ Priority ordering is respected
+- ✅ Default fallback rules are applied
+- ✅ Explicit object datasource overrides mapping rules
+
+## Next Steps (Optional Enhancements)
+
+1. Add read/write operation filtering (like Django's `db_for_read` vs `db_for_write`)
+2. Support for conditional rules based on environment variables
+3. Performance metrics for datasource routing decisions
+4. Admin UI for visualizing datasource routing
+5. Migration tools to help convert from explicit to centralized configuration
+
+## Compatibility
+
+- ✅ Fully backward compatible with existing code
+- ✅ Objects with explicit `datasource` field continue to work
+- ✅ No breaking changes to existing APIs
+- ✅ TypeScript types are properly exported
