mongodb-utils

MongoDB utils library for node

Installation

npm install --save @terrajs/mongodb-utils

Usage

MongoDB utils overide the collection class by adding an utils object that will expose all the MongoDB utils methods:

const mongoUtils = require('@terrajs/mongodb-utils')

const collection = mongoUtils(db.collection('users'))

// We can now access to mongodb-utils method from .utils
const user = await mongoUtils.utils.get({ usermane: 'terrajs' })

Utils

get

get(query = { key: value } || string || ObjectID, fields = {}): Promise<doc>

Return a document that match the specific identifier (_id by default) or the query:

// Get the document that match the query { _id: ObjectID('59c0de2dfe8fa448605b1d89') }
collection.utils.get('59c0de2dfe8fa448605b1d89')

// Get the document that match the query { username: 'terrajs' }
collection.utils.get({ username: 'terrajs' })

// Get the document that match the query & return only its _id
collection.utils.get({ username: 'terrajs' }, { _id: 1 })
// Get the document that match the query & return only its _id (works with array too)
collection.utils.get({ username: 'terrajs' }, ['_id'])

create

create(doc): Promise<doc>

Insert a document into the collection and add createdAt and updatedAt properties:

// Add a document into the collection and return the created document
const user = await collection.utils.create({ username: 'terrajs' })

update

update(query = { key: value } || string || ObjectID, doc): Promise<doc>

Update a specific document and update the updatedAt value

// Update the document that match the query { _id: ObjectID('59c0de2dfe8fa448605b1d89') } and update its username
await collection.utils.update('59c0de2dfe8fa448605b1d89', { username: 'terrajs2' })

// Update the document that match the query { username: 'terrajs2' } and update its username
await collection.utils.update({ username: 'terrajs2' }, { username: 'terrajs' })

remove

remove(query = { key: value } || string || ObjectID): Promise<boolean>

Remove a document that match the specific identifier (_id by default) or the query:

// Remove the document that match the query { _id: ObjectID('59c0de2dfe8fa448605b1d89') }
const result = collection.utils.remove('59c0de2dfe8fa448605b1d89')

// Remove the document that match the query { username: 'test' }
collection.utils.remove({ username: 'test' })

find

find(query = { key: value } || string || ObjectID, [options = { fields: ..., limit: ..., offset: ..., sort: ... }]): Promise<cursor>

The find method return a mongo cursor from a specific query and options.

Options:

• fields: Array of keys (['username', ...]) to return OR a MongoDB projection ({ field1: 1, ... }), default: {}
• limit: Nb of docs to return, no limit by default
• offset: Nb of docs to skpi, default: 0
• sort: Sort criteria (same as sort method from mongo cursor), default: {}

// We find document that match the query { username: new RegExp(/^test/g) }, options with { username: 1, createdAt: 1 } projection and limit at 1 element
const request = await userCollection.mono.find({
  username: new RegExp(/^test/g)
}, {
  fields: ['username', 'createdAt'],
  limit: 1
})
