## Class AuditDSGenerator

- com.isomorphic.datasource.AuditDSGenerator

-     public class AuditDSGenerator

  This class implements a `DynamicDSGenerator` which generates an audit `DataSource` based on a `DataSource` which has auditing enabled.

  An audit `DataSource` is a `DataSource` which basically inherits from the original `DataSource` and adds some additional metadata which allows storing the timestamp, revision, user and operation type in addition to record field values on each add, update and remove operations.

  In order to enable audit for a `DataSource` you have to specify the audit=true property.

  There are additional properties which can be specified in order to control how the new fields are named:

  - auditUserFieldName - specify the field name used to store the user who performed the operation. If empty string is specified as value, then this field won't be created. Default value is user.
  - auditRevisionFieldName - specify the field name used to store the revision information. If empty string is specified as value, then this field won't be created. Default value is revision.
  - auditTimeStampFieldName - specify the field name used to store the timestamp of the operation. If empty string is specified as value, then this field won't be created. Default value is timestamp.
  - auditTypeFieldName - specify the field name used to store the operation type. If empty string is specified as value, then this field won't be created. Default value is type.
  - auditDataSourceID - the id of the generated `DataSource`. Default value is audit_[OriginalDSID].

  In addition to this, setting audit=false property on a field will disable tracking on that field. In effect, the field won't be stored in the audit `DataSource`
