mongoose-dynamic-querybuilder

A utility library for building dynamic queries with Mongoose, featuring enhanced capabilities such as dynamic searching, exclusion of fields, and additional filtering.

Installation

Install using npm:

npm i mongoose-dynamic-querybuilder

Or using Yarn:

yarn add mongoose-dynamic-querybuilder

Usage

Here's how you can use the QueryBuilder with a Mongoose model:

import QueryBuilder from "mongoose-dynamic-querybuilder";

// Initialize QueryBuilder with a Mongoose query and request query parameters
const userQuery = new QueryBuilder(User.find({}), req.query);

const [data, totalData] = await Promise.all([
  userQuery
    .filter()
    .extraFilter({ role: { $ne: "admin" } })
    .search(["email", "username", "profile.fullname"])
    .sort()
    .paginate()
    .fields()
    .exclude("password")
    .applyExclusions().modelQuery,
  userQuery.countTotal(),
]);
