Orm
A simple, yet extensible Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) library that allows you to interact with any key-value databse like LevelDB or Redis. It provides a clean and well-structured JavaScript API for performing database operations like Create, Read, Update, Delete (CRUD), indexing, and query searches. The package extends on the @basd/encoder
package and follows Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) and SOLID principles, making it easy to extend and adapt to various use cases.
Features
- Lightweight and efficient.
- Extensible architecture based on @basd/encoder.
- Dynamic index management.
- Query engine for advanced searching.
- Aggregator for optimized database interactions.
Installation
Install the package with:
npm install @plaindb/orm
Usage
First, import the Orm
library.
import Orm from '@plaindb/orm'
or
const Orm = require('@plaindb/orm')
Basic Example
Here is a simple example to demonstrate CRUD operations using the ORM:
const orm = new Orm(storage, {
User: {
name: 'string',
age: 'number'
}
})
// Create
const user = await orm.create('User', {
name: 'John Doe',
age: 30
})
// Update
await orm.update('User', user.id, {
age: 31
})
// Read
const fetchedUser = await orm.read('User', user.id)
// Delete
await orm.delete('User', user.id)
Advanced Example
This package allows more advanced use-cases, like list handling and relationships:
const orm = new Orm(storage, {
User: {
name: 'string',
posts: '...Post'
},
Post: {
content: 'string'
}
})
const user = await orm.create('User', {
name: 'John',
posts: [
{ content: 'First Post' },
{ content: 'Second Post' }
]
})
Extending
Since the library follows OOP principles, you can easily extend it. For example, to add a new query operation:
class CustomOrmModel extends OrmModel {
constructor(type, fields, config, codex) {
super(type, fields, config, codex)
// Custom logic
}
customFind(query) {
// Custom find logic
}
}
Configuration Options
The Orm
constructor accepts a configuration object that includes the following options:
classes
: Define custom classes for models, fields, lists, etc.parseField
: A function to parse field definitions.props
: Define id, created, and updated property names.
Documentation
OrmModel
The OrmModel
class encapsulates an entity type in the database. It allows you to perform CRUD operations, as well as indexing and searching.
Methods
create(data)
: Creates a new entity.update(id, update)
: Updates an existing entity by its ID.delete(id)
: Deletes an entity by its ID.read(id)
: Fetches an entity by its ID.
Orm
The Orm
class serves as a manager for different types of models and contains utility methods for global operations.
Methods
create(type, data)
: Creates a new entity of a given type.update(type, id, update)
: Updates an existing entity of a given type.delete(type, id)
: Deletes an entity of a given type.read(type, id)
: Reads an entity of a given type.
