BucketDB

Personal convenience wrapper around LevelDB with a minimal CRUD-based API.

Installation

npm install --save bucketdb

Usage

 
var bucketdb = require('bucketdb')('/path/to/your/database');
 
var bucket = bucketdb('bucket-name');
 

API

bucketdb(bucketName)

This is a factory method which will create a bucket for the given entity name. Please note that the storage layer will create a new entity namespace if not available.

bucket.insert(record, callback)

Will insert a new record. Please note that this method will create a new id for this record.

var bucket = bucketdb('account');
var user = {name: 'André König'};
 
function onInsert (err, user) {
    if (err) {
        return console.error('Meh: ' + err.toString());
    }
 
    console.log(user.id); // => 6016dfffa938f0a1dcb66d4630a975925fc4309b
}
 
bucket.insert(user, onInsert);

Important note: This method does not distinguish between several different objects. Means, if you pass an already persisted object this method will store a second record with a different id in the database.

bucket.update(record, callback)

Will update an existing record:

var bucket = bucketdb('account');
var user = {
    id: '6016dfffa938f0a1dcb66d4630a975925fc4309b',
    name: 'André König'
};
 
function onUpdate (err, user) {
    if (err) {
        return console.error('Meh: ' + err.toString());
    }
 
    console.log('Updated!!');
}
 
bucket.update(user, onUpdate);
 

bucket.remove(id, callback)

Will delete an existing record.

 
var bucket = bucketdb('account');
 
function onRemove (err) {
    if (err) {
        return console.error('Meh: ' + err.toString());
    }
 
    console.log('Removed!!');
}
 
bucket.remove('6016dfffa938f0a1dcb66d4630a975925fc4309b', onRemove);
 

bucket.query(q, callback)

Possibility to send queries to the persistence store. This method supports the notation of the MongoDB query language.

 
var bucket = bucketdb('account');
 
var query = {
    id: {
        $in: ['6016dfffa938f0a1dcb66d4630a975925fc4309b', 'f5f0431efda54374889553f27a6710cfc48a69e7'];
};
 
function onQuery (err, results) {
    if (err) {
        return console.error('Meh: ' + err.toString());
    }
 
    console.log(results); // An array with the results (even when there is only one record; empty array when no results are available).
}
 
bucket.query({id: {$in: ids}, onQuery);
