Installation

1. Install Docker and Node.js

2. Create a new app project:

   npm create vite

3. Add a PHP backend

   Optional, for authentication and synchronization features.

   npx add-php-backend

4. Install the local database:

   npm install pouchdb-mysql

5. Create or extend the vite.config.js file:

   export default {
     define: {
       global: {}
     }
   }

SQL Schema

Required columns and primary key for SQL tables which should be synchronized:

CREATE TABLE `tableName` (
  `$key` varchar(36) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
  `$deleted` int(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
  `$updated` bigint(14) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
  `$synchronized` bigint(14) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
  ...
);

Usage

Import the module

import useDB from 'pouchdb-mysql'

Initialize a database

// Initialize with default database name and API endpoint
const db = useDB()

// Initialize with custom database name and default API endpoint
const db = useDB('customDatabaseName')

// Initialize with custom database name and API endpoint
const db = useDB('customDatabaseName', 'https://example.com/api.php')

Create collections

// Local only
const collection = db.collection('collection')

// Local with full sync to and from remote
const collection = db.collection('collection', 'table')

// Local with full sync to and filtered sync from remote
const collection = db.collection('collection', 'table?filter=column,eq,something')

// Local with full sync to and column filtered sync from remote
const collection = db.collection('collection', 'table?include=firstColumn,secondColumn')

// Local with full sync to remote
const collection = db.collection('collection', 'to:table')

// Local with full sync from remote
const collection = db.collection('collection', 'from:table')

// Local with filtered sync from remote
const collection = db.collection('collection', 'from:table?filter=column,eq,something')

Manage documents

// Add a new doc with given $key or automatic UUIDv4 key
const doc = await collection.add(docWithOrWithoutKey)

// Update a doc with given $key
const doc = await collection.update(key, updates)

// Remove a doc with a given $key
await collection.remove(keyOrDocWithKey)

List documents

// List all documents
const docs = await collection.list()

// List all documents
const docs = await collection.list()

// List all documents, callback initially and on any change
collection.list(onChangeCallback(docs))

// List all documents, with callback, include deleted documents
collection.list(onChangeCallback(docs), true)

// List all documents, no callback, include deleted documents
const docs = await collection.list(null, true)

// Document from a collection, returns null if not found or deleted
const doc = await collection.get(key)

// Document from a collection, returns null if not found
const doc = await collection.get(key, true)

Manage authentication

For the API configuration, please refer to the PHP CRUD API documentation.

// Get details for the current user
const user = await db.me()

// Register a new user
const user = await db.register(username, password)

// Login an existing user
const user = await db.login(username, password)

// Change the password
const user = await db.password(username, password, newPassword)

// Logout
await db.logout()
