Installation

The easiest way to install linkfuture-pg-api is with npm.

npm install linkfuture-pg-api

Usage

const $config = {
    "connection":"postgres://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<dbname>",
    "tables":{
        "user":{
            delete:false,//disable delete operation on user table, other operation will be available as default. 
         }
    }
}
const $pgConnector = require("linkfuture-pg-api");
// access through Restful API
const $pgApi = $pgConnector.api($config);
app.use("/api/db/",$pgApi);  
// access through NodeJs
const $pgQuery = $pgConnector.query($config);
let result = await $pgQuery.select("user",{$where:{user_id:1}});

Query

SELECT (GET)

Select by Primary Key

    GET http://[host]/api/db/[table-name or view-name]/[id]
    GET http://[host]/api/db/user/1

Select by JSON Query

    GET http://[host]/api/db/[table-name or view-name]?$q=[JSON QUERY]
    GET http://[host]/api/db/user?$q={"$where":{"id":{"$any":[1,2,3]}}}

Configuration

For security reason, sometimes you may want to disable the operation on specific table, like disable delete operation on user table. You can leverage following configuration to reslove this issue.
By default, the API will enable all operations(select,delete,insert,update) on all tables and views

const $config = {
    "connection":"postgres://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<dbname>",
    "tables":{
        "user":{ 
            select:true,
            delete:false,//disable delete operation on user table,
            max_limit:5000, //set default select max results, by default is 1000
            limit:12 //set default select limit, by default is 10
         }
    },
    "composites":{
        "type_struct":false //disable type_struct composite query, 
    },
    "enum":{
        "type_gender":false //disable type_gender enum query, 
    },
    "events":{
        onRequest:function () {
            $logger.info("onRequest =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
        },
        on_select_city_request:function () {
            $logger.info("on_select_city_request =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
        },
    }
    "custom":{ //custom query, you can define your own script with transaction 
            "find-user":{
                "query":[
                    "select * from public.user where account_id=${id};",
                    "select * from public.city where id=${cityId}",
                    "insert into public.user(account,display_name) VALUES(${name1},${display_name1}),(${name2},${display_name2}) returning account_id",
                    "update public.user set display_name = ${updated_display_name} where account=${name1}",
                    "delete from public.user where account=${deletename}",
                ],
                "method":["GET","post"]
            }
     }
}

Events

Events life cycle, you can catch on either global level (i.e onRequest) or specific action level(i.e on_select_city_request).
Request => Build => Query => Complete

Request: when api load
Build: before build TSQL and verify column and parameters
Query: before db operation
Complete: after DB operation

        "events":{
            onRequest:function () {
                $logger.info("onRequest =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },
            on_city_request:function () {
                $logger.info("on_city_request =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },
            on_select_city_request:function () {
                $logger.info("on_select_city_request =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },
            onBuild:function () {
                $logger.info("onBuild =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },
            on_city_build:function () {
                $logger.info("on_city_build =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));

                $logger.info("on_select_city_build =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },
            onQuery:function () {
                $logger.info("onQuery =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },
            on_city_query:function () {
                $logger.info("on_city_query =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },            
            on_select_city_query:function () {
                $logger.info("on_select_city_query =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },
            onComplete:function () {
                $logger.info("onComplete =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },
            on_city_complete:function () {
                $logger.info("on_select_city_complete =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },            
            on_select_city_complete:function () {
                $logger.info("on_select_city_complete =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));
            },
            on_delete_city_complete:function () {
                $logger.info("on_delete_city_complete =>",JSON.stringify(arguments));

Notice

Column name it will be ignore if the column name does not exist in current table, but the query will be continue.
Bit Bool type will auto convert to bit if the column type is bit.
Node 7+ Only The library is writen on Node 7+, heavily use await/async.
