Adonis Search

This is repo is a AdonisJs provider for simplicity work with search in adonis-lucid

Install

npm i --save adonis-search

Registering provider

The provider is registered inside start/app.js file under providers array.

const providers = [
  'adonis-query/providers/QueryProvider'
]

That's all! Now you can use the mail provider as follows.

Sample

Request url is GET /users?search=mark&page=2&order=-email

const Route = use('Route')
const Query = use('Query')
const User = use('App/Models/User')
 
Route.get('/users', async ({ request, response }) => {
  const query = new Query(request, { order: 'id' })
  const order = query.order()
  
  const users = await User.query()
    .where(query.search([
      'first_name',
      'last_name',
      'email'
    ]))
    .orderBy(order.column, order.direction)
    .paginate(query.page(), query.limit())
    
  response.json(users)
})

Usage

Default values

{
  "page": 1,
  "limit": 30,
  "search": ""
}

You can change defaults by send second argument in Query constructor

cosnt query = new Query(request, {
  limit: 50
})

Search

Note 1. Search not fire where clause if search variable is empty.

Note 2. All search columns and values will be translated to lowercase.

For basic usage you need add columns where you make search

const query = new Query(request, { order: 'id' })
const users = await User.query()
  .where(query.search([
    'first_name',
    'last_name',
    'email'
  ]))

If you need search in INT columns, you need set first argument as object with columns types:

const query = new Query(request, { order: 'id' })
const users = await User.query()
  .where(query.search({
    id: Query.INT,
    first_name: Query.STRING,
    last_name: Query.STRING,
    email: Query.STRING
  }))

Paginate

You can get parsed values from uri as page and limit. Variables are optional.

Route.get('/users', async ({ request, response }) => {
  const query = new Query(request)
  const users = await User.query()
    .paginate(query.page(), query.limit())
    
  response.json(users)
})

Order by

For use order by you need set default value order by column for query

const query = new Query(request, { order: 'id' })
const order = query.order()
const users = await User.query()
  .orderBy(order.column, order.direction)
  .fetch()

Reverse sort are supported by set first symbol - before name column. Sample uri as /users?order=-email It's native support for AngularJS applications.
