@pomgui/database v1.1.0

Database generic library

PiDatabase is a generic typescript library that provides an interface to execute the normal operations with a client database driver as connect, start transaction, commit, etc. for different database client drivers. (Currently it supports node-firebird and mysql drivers)

Advantages:

• All methods return promises.
• It uses query parameters like :id instead of ?.
• The parameters understand object's hierarchy, so it understands parameters like :entry.id.
• The returned rows also are preprocessed to return objects if needed (See Usage Example section).
• It maintains the same interface no matter the database, so it helps with the migration from different databases E.g. MySQL to Firebird or vice versa.

Installation

Use npm to install the library.

npm install @pomgui/database --save

Usage Example

Firebird usage example (using @pomgui/database-mysql)

const options = {
    host: 'localhost',
    port: 3050,
    user: 'sysdba',
    password: 'masterkey',
    database: 'test.fdb'
};

async work(){
    const pool = new PiFirebirdPool(options, 10);
    const db = await pool.get();
    await db.beginTransaction();
    try{
        const param = {entry: {id: 3}};
        const data = await db.query(`
            SELECT 
                e.entry_id "id", e.entry_date, 
                b.benef_id "benef.id", b.name "benef.name"
            FROM ENTRIES e JOIN BENEFICIARIES db ON b.benef_id = e.benef_id
            WHERE entry_id >= :entry.id
            LIMIT 0,10`, param);
        console.log(data);
        await db.commit();
    }catch(err){
        console.error(err);
        await db.rollback();
    }finally{
        await db.close();
    }
}

This will print something like:

[{  id: 3, 
    entryDate: 2020-08-01T00:00:00.000Z,
    benef: {
        id: 1,
        name: 'John Doe'
    }
},{  id: 4, 
    date: 2020-08-02T00:00:00.000Z,
    benef: {
        id: 1,
        name: 'Jane Doe'
    }
}, ...
]

MySQL usage example

const options = {
    host: 'localhost',
    user: 'user',
    password: 'secret',
    database: 'test'
};

async work(){
    const pool = new PiMySqlPool(options, 10);
    const db = await pool.get();
    await db.beginTransaction();
    try{
        const param = {entry: {id: 3}};
        const data = await db.query(`
            SELECT 
                e.entry_id "id", e.entry_date, 
                b.benef_id "benef.id", b.name "benef.name"
            FROM ENTRIES e JOIN BENEFICIARIES db ON b.benef_id = e.benef_id
            WHERE entry_id >= :entry.id
            LIMIT 0,10`, param);
        console.log(data);
        await db.commit();
    }catch(err){
        console.error(err);
        await db.rollback();
    }finally{
        await db.close();
    }
}

This will print something like:

[{  id: 3, 
    entryDate: 2020-08-01T00:00:00.000Z,
    benef: {
        id: 1,
        name: 'John Doe'
    }
},{  id: 4, 
    date: 2020-08-02T00:00:00.000Z,
    benef: {
        id: 1,
        name: 'Jane Doe'
    }
}, ...
