Squeakql: The Fluent SQL Builder for JavaScript

Squeakql is a SQL query builder and utility library that combines best practices, security, and a fluent API for effortlessly building SQL queries. Optimized for TypeScript, Squeakql is designed to be simple, efficient, and powerful, making database interactions more robust and developer-friendly.

Features

• Type Safety: Full TypeScript support for static type checking.
• Fluent API: Effortlessly chain methods to build SQL queries.
• SQL Injection Prevention: Enhanced security measures to protect against SQL injections.
• String Interpolation: Utilize JavaScript template literals for cleaner code.
• Built-In Helper Functions: Easily insert, update, and select records with minimal code.

Quickstart

installation

bun add squeakql
# or
npm install squeakql

quick usage

import { sql } from "squeakql";

const query = sql`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id=${userId}`;

API Highlights

SQL Insert Helper

const [queryStr, values] = insert("users", { username: "johndoe", age: 25 });

Generates: INSERT INTO users (username, age) VALUES ($1, $2) RETURNING *

Template Tag

Squeakql uses template string literals to interpolate values safely preventing sql injection while allowing you to write readable sql!

const query = sql`SELECT * FROM table WHERE a=${val} and b=${val2}`;

Example SQL Injections prevention

Squeakql protects against SQL injections both in literals and values.

injectCode = "abc' OR 1=1;--";
const query = sql`SELECT * from tables WHERE col=${injectCode}`.render();

Will return a properly escaped query:

SELECT * from tables WHERE col='abc'' OR 1=1;--'

sql helpers

• insert(table: string, vals: Dictionary|Dictionary[], ignorConflict = false)
• update(table: string, vals: Dictoinary, id: string)
• sql.basicSelect()
• sql.unsafe()
• sql.merge()
• sql.values()
• sql.setters()
• sql.columns()
• sql.insert()
• sql.basicUpdate()
• sql.updateMany()

Query Builder

Use query builder to build sql selects:

import { sql } from "squeakql";

qb = new QueryBuilder("table_name");
console.log(qb.compile().render());
// returns> SELECT t.* FROM ONLY table_name AS t

Use for out-of-order query building

qb = new QueryBuilder("table_name");
qb.addOrderBy(sql`created_ts DESC`);
qb.addWhereClause(sql`a = ${one}`);
qb.addSelectableColumn("created_ts");
console.log(qb.compile().render());

query builder functions

qb.addSelectableColumn(column: string | SqueakqlQuery, as?: string)
qb.addWhereClause(clause: SqueakqlQuery)
qb.addHavingClause(clause: SqueakqlQuery)
qb.addWithClause(name: string, clause: SqueakqlQuery)
qb.addDistinctColumn(column: string | SqueakqlQuery)
qb.addSearchTerm(clause: SqueakqlQuery) // basically a where clause, but gets "OR"d
qb.addOrderBy(orderBy: SqueakqlQuery)
qb.addRawJoin(sqlJoinClause: SqueakqlQuery)
qb.joinTables(
    tableA: BaseTable,
    tableB: BaseTable,
    joinColumnOfTableB: string,
    useLeft = true
  )
qb.addGroupBy(groupByClause: SqueakqlQuery)
qb.baseTable.tableName // "table_name"
qb.baseTable.alias // "t"
