Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

The package supports a custom relational system.

Where can I get this?

Code Docs

init(connectionParams, dbSchema)

  • connectionParams is an object containing the host, port, user, password and name of the database
  • dbSchema is the object containing the schema to be created by the package, see the Schema header for more information

Example

const db = require('mysql_interface');
const fs = require("fs");
db.init({host: "127.0.0.1", port: 3306, user: "myUser", password: "myPassword", database: "myDatabase"}, JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('schema.json', 'UTF-8')));

Database Schema The package requires a schema to create the database, this should be supplied by your application in the dbSchema argument. The schema file is organised into the following structure:

{
    "tableName": {
        "fields": {
            "column":{
                "type": "columnType",
                "flags": "column flags",
                "default": "'default value'",
                "transform": null
            }
        },
        "pk": "column"
    }
}

Descriptions:

  • tableName is the name of the table to be created, must be single words
  • column is the name of the column
  • type is the type of column (bigint, varchar, etc)
  • flags are the flags attached to this column (unsigned, NOT NULL, AUTO_INCREMENT) should be space seperated.
  • default is the default value for that column, strings should be enclosed in single quotes
  • pk is an optional property that just states which column is the primary key.

Select data

db.tableName.get(query)

  • tableName is the name of the table
  • query is the object containing what is being searched (see example)

Example:

db.users.get({
    username: "myUsername"
})

Update data

db.tableName.update(fields, where)

  • tableName is the name of the table
  • fields is the object containing what fields are being updated (see example)
  • where is the object containing the search method (see example)

Example:

db.users.update({
    fields: {
        age: 18,
    },
    where: {
        field: "username",
        value: "myUsername",
        operator: "="
    }
})

Insert data

db.tableName.create(data)

  • tableName is the name of the table
  • data is the object containing the fields

Example:

db.users.create({
    username: "myUsername",
    password: "myPassword",
    age: 20
})

Delete data

db.tableName.delete(query)

  • tableName is the name of the table
  • query is the object containing what is being searched (see example)

Example:

db.users.delete({
    username: "myUsername"
})

Relations This package does support relationships, both single and multiple. This can be done by adding a few more things to the schema.

Single Relationship Example

"car": {
    "type": "bigint",
    "flags": "unsigned",
    "default": null,
    "transform": null,
    "related": {
        "table": "users",
        "field": "id"
    },
    "relation": "single"
}

In the return for a get statment, there will be the data from the linked row.

Multiple Relationship Example

"keys": {
    "type": "string",
    "flags": "",
    "default": null,
    "transform": null,
    "related": {
        "table": "keys",
        "field": "id"
    },
    "relation": "multiple"
}

The data for this column should be stored in a stringified array: "[keyID1,keyID2,keyID3]" In a get statment the returned data will be in an array for each item. If the package fails to find a refrenced row, it will return null in its place.
