postgresorm v5.1.1

PostgresORM

A very basic ORM for PostgreSQL

Install

npm i postgresorm

Setup

• Setup database configuration in configuration file, eg config.js config.js

const configObject = {
    connectionString: "postgres://username:password@host:port/database",
    max: config.max,
    idleTimeoutMillis: config.idleTimeoutMillis,
    connectionTimeoutMillis: config.connectionTimeoutMillis
}

• Initialize the database in your app.js file

app.js

initializeDatabase(configObject);` <br />

ORM Commands

To use in model file, import module first

const pg = require('postgresorm')

const db = pg.db()

OR

const pg = require('postgresorm')

const client = await pg.pool.connect();

const db = pg.db(client)

And after using the particular database context, release it back into the pool

await db.release();

• db.create('table', data) - Creates a new record in table. Similar to the INSERT command 'table': Name of table to create record in data: Object of table values

  data = {
      name: 'Meena',
      piece: 'Rook',
      level: 20
  }

• db.list('table', conditions) - Lists records in table 'table': Name of table from which to list records

  conditions: Optional Filters records. eg, _id = 1, price < 200.

• db.paginate('table', paginateparams, conditions) - Paginates records from a table.

  • 'table': Table to fetch records from
  • paginateparams: Contains options for the paginate function

  paginateparams = {
      sortby: _ASC_ or _DESC_,
      limit: An integer eg _10_,
      page: current page of pagination. Also an integer
  }

  • conditions: Optional Filters records.

• db.findone('table', conditions)

  • conditions = { column1: 'value', column2: 'othervalue'} will search for and record a single record where column1 = value and column2 = `othervalue'
  • You know the drill..

• db.findonerandom('table', conditions)

• db.onetomanycreate('table', columns, values)
• db.update('table', conditions, newValues)
• db.customquery(querytext, parameters)
  • querytext: SQL query string.
  • parameters: values. Optional

    Keep your application safe by using parameterized queries. Do this:

  querytext = `SELECT * from example_table where username = $1;`
  parameters = ['sampleuser']

  And never this:

  querytext = `SELECT * from example_table where username = 'sampleuser';`

• db.transaction(callback) In callback, write your SQL queries For example:

    await db.transaction(client => {
        let newUser = await db.create('users', {email: 'meena@rook.com', name: 'Meena'}, client);
        let newWallet = await db.create('wallets', {user_id: newUser.id, balance: 0}, client);
    });
