Module @nymphjs/nymph - v1.0.0-beta.81

Nymph

Powerful object data storage and querying.

The Nymph core provides the base level classes and utilities to query the database, save data to it, and define different data types.

Installation

npm install --save @nymphjs/nymph

Drivers

To use Nymph, you need a database driver. Nymph.js provides a MySQL driver, a PostgreSQL driver, and a SQLite3 driver. They all provide the exact same functionality.

Usage

Here's an overview:

// main.ts
import { Nymph } from '@nymphjs/nymph';
import MySQLDriver from '@nymphjs/driver-mysql';
import TodoClass from './Todo';

const mysqlConfig = {
host: 'your_db_host',
database: 'your_database',
user: 'your_user',
password: 'your_password',
};

// Create a new instance of Nymph.
const nymph = new Nymph({}, new MySQLDriver(mysqlConfig));
// addEntityClass returns the class you should use for this instance of Nymph.
const Todo = nymph.addEntityClass(TodoClass);

// You are set up. Now you can use entity classes like `Todo` to store data,
// and Nymph's query methods like `getEntities` to retrieve them.

async function run() {
const myEntity = await Todo.factory();
myEntity.text = 'Get it done!';
await myEntity.$save();

const otherPendingTodos = await nymph.getEntities(
{ class: Todo },
{ type: '&', '!guid': myEntity.guid, equal: ['done', false] },
);

const total = otherPendingTodos.length;
const single = total === 1;
console.log(
`Besides the one I just created, there ${
single ? 'is' : 'are'
} ${total} pending todo${single ? '' : 's'} in the database.`,
);
}
// Todo.ts
import { Entity } from '@nymphjs/nymph';

export type TodoData = {
text: string;
done: boolean;
};

export default class Todo extends Entity<TodoData> {
static ETYPE = 'todo'; // This is used for the table name(s) in the DB.
static class = 'Todo'; // This is used to map references to their class.

constructor() {
super();

// Within the methods of an entity, you will use `this.$data` to access
// its data. Outside, you don't need the $data part.
this.$data.text = '';
this.$data.done = false;
}

async $getOtherTodos() {
// this.$nymph (or this.nymph in a static function) is the instance of Nymph
// this entity was loaded with. Creating transactions will create a new
// instance of Nymph, so it could be a transactional instance.
const otherTodos = await this.$nymph.getEntities(
{ class: Todo },
{ type: '!&', guid: this.guid },
);
return otherTodos;
}
}
