Appwrite indexes creation solution

in src/models/server/question.collection.ts, we can add a delay to ensure attributes are fully propagated before indexing;

await Promise.all([
    databases.createStringAttribute(db, questionCollection, "title", 100, true),
    databases.createStringAttribute(db, questionCollection, "content", 10000, true),
    databases.createStringAttribute(db, questionCollection, "authorId", 50, true),
    databases.createStringAttribute(db, questionCollection, "tags", 50, true, undefined, true),
    databases.createStringAttribute(db, questionCollection, "attachmentId", 50, false),
]);

console.log("Attributes created successfully");

// Adding a delay to ensure attributes are fully available before indexing
await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 2000));

await Promise.all([
    databases.createIndex(db, questionCollection, "title", IndexType.Fulltext, ["title"], ["asc"]),
    databases.createIndex(db, questionCollection, "content", IndexType.Fulltext, ["content"], ["asc"]),
]);

console.log("Indexes created successfully");

You are almost correct. While we are creating the attributes, we are using a promise. Until the promise resolves or reject the inner code, it won't move further. So, adding a delay is not a good solution.
