First you have to define the Schema (the body of your database)

import { DB } from "github-gist-database";

// Define your schema
interface Product {
  name: string;
  price: number;
}

// Initialize the database
const productSchema = new DB<Product>(
  {
    name: "String",
    price: "Number",
  },
  {
    githubToken: process.env.GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN!,
    schemaName: "productSchema",
    projectName: "test",
    gistId: "48ec463b54be5973729a108297860555",
    timeStamps: true,
  }
);

 {
    name: "String",
    price: "Number",
  },
