What is reheat?

Reheat is an ORM for RethinkDB, built for the Node.js platform.

Benefits of using reheat:

• Less code to write
• Less code to test
• Less code to maintain
• Less code that can break
• Improved sense of well-being

Features:

• Connection pool
• Easy Model lifecycle setup/access (beforeUpdate(), afterDestroy(), etc.)
• Robust and flexible Schema definition for your Models
• Automatic validation based on Schema
• Convert req.query to ReQL query (great for your app's API).
• Query builder (it's just ReQL, easy!)
• Connection and Schema can each be used on their own
• Relationships/Associations

Roadmap:

• Transactions (and rollbacks)
• Migrations
• You tell me!

Quick, what is RethinkDB?

From the RethinkDB website:

An open-source distributed database built with love.

Enjoy an intuitive query language, automatically parallelized queries, and simple administration.

Table joins and batteries included.

RethinkDB is awesome and ReQL makes data access fun, but still, who loves writing tons of code to pull data into and out of a database? Reheat exists to eliminate boilerplate and level up your RethinkDB experience!

Install reheat

npm install reheat --save

Go!

var reheat = require('reheat');

var connection = new reheat.Connection({
	db: 'local'
});

var Post = reheat.defineModel('Post', {
	tableName: 'post',
	connection: connection
});

var post = new Post({
	author: 'Jason Dobry',
	title: 'How to reheat your app'
});

post.isNew(); // true

post.save().then(function (post) {
	post.toJSON();  //  {
					//      id: '1c83229b-1628-4098-a618-abc05af1ebdb',
					//      author: 'Jason Dobry',
					//      title: 'How to reheat your app'
