database-manager-ff v1.0.0

Database Manager FF

This module allow access to mongodb collections which was previously on parse-server.

A couple of changes has been made to make this module compatible with existing record.

1. Modification of mongoose objectId prototype to not type cast
2. Plugins to auto generate reference (i.e foreign keys)
3. Auto generate models and schema from existing records

Usage

let  DBM = require("database-manager-ff");
let  databaseManager = await  DBM({
	onConnectionSucess: () => {
		console.log("Connection successful");
	},
	onConnectionError: (e) => {
		console.log('Error connecting', e)
	},
	generateSchemas: true,
	generatorOptions: {
	    log: false, // to log?
	    overwriteModels: false  // true will create new model files... all changes to models will be lost
	},
	cleanUp: true, // do close connection default=true
	databaseUrl: process.env.DEFAULT_DATABASE_URI  // database url
});

const { Meeting } = databaseManager.models

Availalble Options

Note

generateSchemas: true requires that parse credentials are available. Required Credentials.

process.env.PARSE_SERVER_URL
process.env.PARSE_CLIENT_KEY
process.env.PARSE_MASTER_KEY

Performing Populate Queries

See: https://mongoosejs.com/docs/populate.html

Due to some changes to support existing data, you'll need to explicitly pass the getter true for populate to work

let record = await Meeting.findOne({ "_id": parseId })
        .populate({ 
            path: '_p_user', 
            options: { 
                getters: true 
            }, 
            select: "fullName meetingSettings"
        });
// records now contains user object as record._p_user
