Overview

RSQL (RESTful Service Query Language) is an extention of apache's FIQL (Feed Item Query Language). It is very simple and yet capable to express complex queries within a HTTP URI string. It is very well adopted as a generic query language for searching RESTful service endpoints.
An open source implementation convert RSQL to LoopBack queries for LoopBack Framework. Providing this adapater for LoopBack queries makes RSQL a natural choice for query RESTful APIs that backended with LoopBack models.

HowTos

// install rsql-to-loopback in your project
npm i -S rsql-to-loopback

// import RSQL to LoopBack model
var rsql2loopback = require('rsql-to-loopback');

// convert RSQL string to LoopBack query where clause
var loopbackQuery = rsql2loopback.convert(rsqlString);

// convert RSQL string to loopBack query where clause,
// check RSQL string only contains keys defined in keys map
loopbackQuery = rsql2loopback.convert4keys(rsqlString, keys);

Examples

This project convert RSQL query to where clouse of LoopBack query:

# basic equality
firstName==John -> 
{
    "where": {
        "firstName": "John"
    }
}

# basic inequality
firstName!=John -> 
{
    "where": {
        "firstName": {
            "neq": "John"
        }
    }
}

# basic greater than
createDate>'2016-01-01' -> 
createDate=gt='2016-01-01' -> 
{
    "where": {
        "createDate": {
            "gt": "2016-01-01"
        }
    }
}

# basic greater than or equal
createDate>='2016-01-01' -> 
createDate=ge='2016-01-01' -> 
{
    "where": {
        "createDate": {
            "gte": "2016-01-01"
        }
    }
}

# basic less than
createDate<'2016-06-06' ->
createDate=lt='2016-06-06' -> 
{
    "where": {
        "createDate": {
