@bahatron/mercurios v3.1.4

Mercurios

Event Sourcing != Async Messaging

Notes

• Event ordering is not guaranteed. However, it's possible to use expectedSeq when publishing to control the order of events in a stream

Getting Started

npm install --save @bahatron/mercurios

import mercurios from "@bahatron/mercurios";

let client = mercurios.connect({ url: "postgres://postgres:5432" });

// appends an event to topic
let event = await client.append("myTopic", {
    data: { foo: "bar" },
    expectedSeq: 5,
});

// fetch an event by sequence
let event = await client.read("myTopic", 2);

// filter topic events
let events = await client.filter("myTopic", {
    from: 1,
    to: 5,
    before: "2021-09-01",
    key: "a_key",
});

// lists topics
let topics = await client.topics({
    like: "user.*",
    withEvents: {
        after: "2021",
    },
});
