ReadonlyfieldsThe logical fields the row key is composed from, in order. The order is load-bearing: it is both the byte order the key sorts in and the order the portable cursor carries key values in.
Optional ReadonlyprefixA constant prefix prepended to every row key of this entity.
Optional ReadonlyseparatorThe separator joining the fields. Defaults to '#'. Ignored for a
single-field key, which is the field's own string form.
How an entity's logical fields compose its single row key.
Bigtable's row key is one lexicographically-sorted string, and composing it from several logical fields is the platform's standard practice. That is a MAPPING concern rather than the composite-key CONTRACT concern M79 added: the repository still addresses a row by an
EntityKey, and this decides how that key becomes bytes.Example
