@wuguishifu/mongodb-schema-applier v1.0.0

@wuguishifu/mongodb-schema-applier

This package makes it easy to apply index specification schemas to existing mongodb applications. One major use-case is using a schema file to ensure that indexes exist on a mongodb slice on startup of a backend server.

Installation

using npm:

npm install @wuguishifu/mongodb-schema-applier

Usage

Applying Schemas

1. Create an Applier object.
2. Use the apply() function to asynchronously apply the schema.

import Applier, { Schema } from '@wuguishifu/mongodb-schema-applier';
const schema: Schema = { ... };
const applier = new Applier('localhost:27017', 'my-db', { w: 'majority', retryWrites: true });
applier.apply(schema);

Clearing Schemas

1. Create an Applier object.
2. Use the clear() function to asynchronously drop indexes

import Applier, { Schema } from '@wuguishifu/mongodb-schema-applier';
const schema: Schema = { ... };
const applier = new Applier('localhost:27017', 'my-db', { w: 'majority', retryWrites: true });
applier.clear(schema);

Usage with schema file

schema.json

see full example in schema-example.json.

{
  "collections": {
    "my-collection": {
      "indexes": [
        {
          "field": "myUniqueIndex",
          "type": "default",
          "indexSpec": {
            "pattern": 1
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

index.ts

import Applier, { Schema } from '@wuguishifu/mongodb-schema-applier';
import _schema from './schema.json';
const schema = _schema as Schema;

const applier = new Applier('localhost:27017', 'my-db', { w: 'majority', retryWrites: true });

// add indexes
try {
    await applier.apply(schema);
} catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    process.exit(1);
}

// delete indexes
try {
    await applier.clear(schema);
} catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    process.exit(1);
}
