how can i create a derived collection ?

[ymolists]

Hi Folks.

I am trying to create a derived collection from my posts. ie. a collection with less fields while keeping the original intact. For example i need a collection that contains all posts but with only the title and slug fields. i need this to be generated every time i run velite just like other collections. I understand i can augment the collection but i have not seen a way to reduce the number of fields in a collection and generate thus a new collection that will have its own type and schema.

My first though was to make a script that reads the posts.json and then generates json files in the same directory but i figured you folks might know a better way to do it :-)

Thank you

If it were me, I would try to define a fake collection schema, provide the type, and then fill it in the prepare hook
