SoDB

Support for database encryption and automatic compression. The most cost effective database solution. Free to use, and simple to set up.

Data is stored as documents. Documents are sets of attributes linked under one key. Documents are stored in individual JSON files for maximum read speeds.

After a set time of no interaction with a document, it is compressed for more efficient storage. Once it is read or edited again, the timer resets.

Installation

npm install @sojs_coder/sodb

const so_db = require("@sojs_coder/sodb");

Usage

const { Database } = require('@sojs_coder/sodb');

// Create a new database
const myDB = new Database('myTable',{
  encrypt: true
});

// Add a new document
myDB.addDoc('document1', {property1: 'value1', property2: 'value2'})
    .then((document) => console.log(document))
    .catch((err) => console.error(err));

// Update an existing document
myDB.updateDoc('document1', {property1: 'newValue1'})
    .then(() => console.log('Document updated'))
    .catch((err) => console.error(err));

// Get a document
myDB.getDoc('document1')
    .then((document) => console.log(document))
    .catch((err) => console.error(err));

// Delete a document
myDB.deleteDoc('document1')
    .then(() => console.log('Document deleted'))
    .catch((err) => console.error(err));

// Dump all documents
myDB.dump()
    .then((documents) => console.log(documents))
    .catch((err) => console.error(err));


// Encrypt all documents
myDB.encryptDocs()


// Decrypt all documents
myDB.unencryptDocs()

Class Database

new Database(table_name, options)

Creates a new Database instance.

• table_name: the name of the table for the database. This will be used as the name of the directory in which the documents will be stored.
• options: JSON object to improve database performance and optimize for your use case.
  • encrypt: defualt false. If true, data in the data base will be encypted using AES encrytion. Set an enviroment variable called SO_DB_KEY for this to work (do not share this with anyone, it will allow them to decrypt your database)
  • timeToCompress: defualt 24. The quantity of time (in hours) that an untouched document takes to compress. A document is considered touched when it is created, modified, or read from.

addDoc(id, obj)

Adds a new document to the database.

• id: the unique identifier for the document to be updated.
• obj: the updated content of the document, in the form of a JavaScript object.

updateDoc(id, obj)

Updates an existing document in the database, and returns the contents of the updated document as a promise.

• id: the unique identifier for the document to be updated.
• obj: the updated content of the document, in the form of a JavaScript object.

deleteDoc(id)

Deletes a document from the database.

• id: the unique identifier for the document to be deleted.

dump()

• Retrieves all documents from the database.

encryptDocs

• Encrypts database completely, useful for changing from decrypted database to encrypted

unencryptDocs

• Completely decrypts database, useful for viewing encrypted data (use at your own risk)
