Dexie.js
Dexie.js is a wrapper library for indexedDB - the standard database in the browser. https://dexie.org
Why?
Dexie solves three main issues with the native IndexedDB API:
- Ambiguous error handling
- Poor queries
- Code complexity
Dexie provides a neat database API with a well thought-through API design, robust error handling, extendability, change tracking awareness and extended KeyRange support (case insensitive search, set matches and OR operations).
Hello World
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/dexie@latest/dist/dexie.js"></script>
<script>
//
// Declare Database
//
var db = new Dexie("FriendDatabase");
db.version(1).stores({
friends: "++id,name,age"
});
//
// Manipulate and Query Database
//
db.friends.add({name: "Josephine", age: 21}).then(function() {
return db.friends.where("age").below(25).toArray();
}).then(function (youngFriends) {
alert ("My young friends: " + JSON.stringify(youngFriends));
}).catch(function (e) {
alert ("Error: " + (e.stack || e));
});
</script>
</head>
</html>Yes, it's that simple.
An equivalent modern version (works in all modern browsers):
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="module">
import Dexie from "https://unpkg.com/dexie@latest/dist/modern/dexie.mjs";
//
// Declare Database
//
const db = new Dexie("FriendDatabase");
db.version(1).stores({
friends: "++id,name,age"
});
//
// Manipulate and Query Database
//
try {
await db.friends.add({name: "Josephine", age: 21});
const youngFriends = await db.friends.where("age").below(25).toArray();
alert (`My young friends: ${JSON.stringify(youngFriends)}`);
} catch (e) {
alert (`Error: ${e}`);
}
</script>
</head>
</html>Performance
Dexie has kick-ass performance. Its bulk methods take advantage of a lesser-known feature in IndexedDB that makes it possible to store stuff without listening to every onsuccess event. This speeds up the performance to a maximum.
