sql-utils

Various SQL utilities for Node.js

Installation

$ npm i -s @allnulled/sql-utils

Usage

const SQLUtils = require("sql-utils");
const whereSQL = SQLUtils.whereToSQL({
	name: "somename",
	password: "somepassword"
});
const query = `SELECT * FROM user WHERE ${whereSQL}`;

whereToSQL function

SQLUtils.whereToSQL(...) allows to obtain SQL WHERE expressions from:

• Object: where each property is a column, and each value, a SQL (escaped) value.
• Array: where each item represents:
  • 2 values: SQL column and value, bound by =
  • 3 values: SQL column, SQL logic operators, and value
• String: inline SQL injections are allowed by the framework, to fully customize what is going on WHERE SQL expressions.

This function also allows you to use in and not in operators with Arrays of values (that will be safely escaped).
