Aurora Data API Client

Master npm (scoped)

Summary

Aurora Data API Client is an abstraction of the RDSDataService that implements the Data API for Aurora Serverless.

Query requests are simplified; instead of expecting clunky query params it expects only a JSON object:

// using AuroraDataAPI
await auroraDataAPI.query('SELECT * FROM users where id = :id', { id: 42 })
// using RDSDataService
await rdsDataService.executeStatement({
  sql: 'SELECT * FROM users where id = :id',
  includeResultMetadata: true,
  parameters: [{
    value: {
      longValue: 42
    }
  }]
}).promise()

Results are also simplified by transforming the records into a ready-to-use JS object:

// response from AuroraDataAPI#query
{
  rows: [
    {
      id: 7,
      name: 'Filip J Fry'
    },
    {
      id: 9,
      name: 'Bender Bending Rodriguez'
    }
  ],
  metadata: {
    id: {
      tableName: 'users',
      name: 'id',
      typeName: 'int8',
      // ...everything else from columnMetadata
    },
    name: {
      tableName: 'users',
      name: 'name',
      typeName: 'varchar',
      // ...
    }
  },
  // ...includes the original result payload too
}
// response from RDSDataService#executeStatement
{
  records: [
    [
      {
        longValue: 7
      },
      {
        stringValue: 'Filip J Fry'
      }
    ],
    [
      {
        longValue: 9
      },
      {
        stringValue: 'Bender Bending Rodriguez'
      }
    ]
  ],
  columnMetadata: [
    {
      tableName: 'users',
      name: 'id',
      typeName: 'int8',
      // ...everything else from columnMetadata
    },
    {
      tableName: 'users',
      name: 'name',
      typeName: 'varchar',
      // ...
    }
  ]
}

Data API for Aurora Serverless Suite

This library is part of the Data API for Aurora Serverless Suite, a monorepo that includes libraries, Serverless Framework plugins and development tools to simplify and enhance the development, deployment and use of the Data API for Aurora Serverless on Amazon Web Services.

Installation

$ npm install aurora-data-api --save

Usage

import * from AuroraDataAPI
const auroraDataAPI = new AuroraDataAPI({ ...config })
auroraDataAPI.query('SELECT * FROM users').then(console.log)

AuroraDataAPI#constructor

new AuroraDataAPI(
  config: AuroraDataAPI.Config
) => AuroraDataAPI

Constructs a new instance of AuroraDataAPI.

Query Params

Query params are, to put simply, just a JS object of names and values. The name is attributed to the placeholder in your SQL statement, for instance:

query('SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = :id', { id: 99 })

The SQL statement with the placeholder :id will be interpreted as SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = 99.

The Data API for Aurora Serverless however, expects parameters to be defined like so:

[
  {
    name: 'id',
    value: {
      longValue: 99
    }
  }
]

AuroraDataAPI transforms your query params by inspecting the type of the value. If you need more control, for instance, when inserting JSON, you can define your params using AWS's structure, for example:

query('UPDATE users SET json_data = :jsonData WHERE id = :id', {
  id: 99,
  jsonData: {
    typehint: 'json',
    value: {
      stringValue: JSON.stringify({ foo: 'bar' })
    }
  }
})

Note that name is omitted from the object because it is defined by the key.

See The docs on RDSDataService#executeStatement and the SqlParameter documentation for more information on how to structure your parameter in the "RDSDataService way".

How values are transformed

Value Type Transformed Field
string { stringValue: value }
boolean { booleanValue: value }
number (integer) { longValue: value }
number (float) { doubleValue: value }
string[] { arrayValue: { stringValues: values } }
boolean[] { arrayValue: { booleanValues: values } }
number[] (integer) { arrayValue: { longValues: values } }
number[] (float) { arrayValue: { doubleValues: values } }
instanceof Buffer { blobValue: value }
instanceof Uint8Array { blobValue: value }

Multidimensional arrays are also transformed recursively:

// these AuroraDataAPI Query parms...
{
  threeDimensions: [
    [
      ['1.1.1', '1.1.2'],
      ['1.2.1', '1.2.2']
    ],
      ['2.1.1', '2.1.2'],
      ['2.2.1', '2.2.2']
  ]
}

// are transformed into these RDSDataService parameters...
[
  {
    name: 'threeDimensions',
    value: {
      arrayValue: {
        arrayValues: [
          {
            arrayValues: [
              {
                arrayValues: {
                  stringValues: ['1.1.1', '1.1.2']
                }
              },
              {
                arrayValues: {
                  stringValues: ['1.2.1', '1.2.2']
                }
              }
            ],
            arrayValues: [
              {
                arrayValues: {
                  stringValues: ['2.1.1', '2.1.2']
                }
              },
              {
                arrayValues: {
                  stringValues: ['2.2.1', '2.2.2']
                }
              }
            ]
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
]

Custom value classes

Support for CustomValue classes make it easy to "DRY" your code. They offer a way to encapsulate your values so they can be transformed into an SqlParameter. Here is an example of a uuid value:

class UUIDValue implements AuroraDataAPI.CustomValue {
  private value: string

  constructor (value: string) {
    this.value = value
  }

  toSqlParameter (): AuroraDataAPI.SqlParameter {
    return {
      typeHint: 'uuid',
      value: {
        stringValue: this.value
      }
    }
  }
}

await query(
  'SELECT * FROM users WHERE uuid = :uuid',
  { uuid: new UUIDValue(req.params.uuid) }
)

// it works with arrays too:
await query(
  'SELECT * FROM users WHERE uuid = ANY(:uuids)',
  { uuids: req.params.uuids.map((uuid) => new UUIDValue(uuid)) }
)

A few predefined custom values are available: AuroraDataAPI.JSONValue and AuroraDataAPI.BlobValue, for more information please take a look at src/customValues.ts.

Value Transformer

When includeResultMetadata is true, the Data API response payload includes metadata for each of the columns in the result set. In cases such as timezone, json or jsonb columns, the column value will be returned as a stringValue (or stringValues in the case of an array).

By default AuroraDataAPI some types (such as those described above) into the expected objects. e.g. a timezone column will be parsed with new Date, a jsonb column will parsed using JSON.parse.

You can override and/or extend the default behavior by providing your own valueTransformer like so:

const valueTransformer = (
  value: any,
  metadata: RDSDataService.ColumnMetadata,
  next: Function
) => {
  if (
    metadata.typeName === 'varchar' &&
    typeof value === 'string'
  ) {
    return value.toUpperCase()
  }
  return next() // remove this line to disable the default value transformer
}

// construct AuroraDataAPI with your new value transformer
const client = new AuroraDataAPI({
  ...config,
  valueTransformer
})

// or add it to the options argument on #query or transaction#query
const result = await client.query(
  'SELECT email FROM users',
  undefined,
  { valueTransformer }
) // => { rows: [{ email: 'EXAMPLE@EXAMPLE.COM' }] }
