Table of Contents

Introduction

Db3 replaces SQL queries in your code with simple, clean and readable calls. Its aim is to provide shorthand methods for basic and most used SQL patterns, rather than trying to cover the whole SQL specification. It may be useful for those who doesn't know or doesn't want to use SQL, but still interested in using mysql as backend db. Db3 is based on excellent node-mysql lib. For PHP alternative check out the Medoo project.

Installation

npm install db3

Connecting

var db3 = require('db3')
var db = db3.connect({host: 'example.org', user: 'bob', password: 'secret', database : 'test'})

connection options object passed directly to mysql.createPool

Disconnecting

//db.end(cb)
db.end(err => {
  console.log('all connections closed gracefully')
})

Creating table

SQL: create table ...

//db.createTable(table, fields, callback)
/*
create table `person` (
  id bigint primary key auto_increment,
  name text,
  gender text
);
*/
db.createTable('person', ['id', 'name', 'gender'], (err, data) => {
  console.log('created table `person` with field `id`, `name`, `gender`')
})

all fields will be of text type, except id (will be 'bigint primary key auto_increment') and fields matching /Id$/, like userId (will become bigint)

Droping table

SQL: drop table ...

//db.dropTable(table, callback)
//drop table `person`;
db.dropTable('person', () => {
  console.log('table `person` dropped')
})

Truncating table

SQL: truncate table ...

//db.truncateTable(table, callback)
//truncate table `person`;
db.truncateTable('person', () => {
  console.log('table `person` truncated')
})

Copying table

SQL: create table ... like ... insert

//db.copyTable(from, to, callback)
//create table `personCopy` like `person`; insert `personCopy` select * from `person`;
db.copyTable('person', 'personCopy', () => {
  console.log('copied table `person` and all its data to table `personCopy`')
})

Renaming table

SQL: rename table ...

//db.renameTable(from, to, callback)
//rename table `person` to `nosrep`;
db.renameTable('person', 'nosrep', () => {
  console.log('renamed table `person` and all its data to table `nosrep`')
})

Checking if table exists

//db.tableExists(table, callback)
db.tableExists('person', (err, exists) => {
  if (exists)
    console.log('table `person` exists')
  else
    console.log('table `person` does not exist')
})

Inserting

SQL: insert ...

//db.insert(table, data, callback)
//insert `person` set `name` = 'Bob';
db.insert('person', {name: 'Bob'}, (err, data) => {
  console.log('inserted row into table `person` with id ' + data.insertId + ' and `name` set to "Bob"')
})

Updating

SQL: update ...

//db.update(table, condition, data, callback)
//update `person` set `name` = 'Bob' where `name` = 'Alice';
db.update('person', {name: 'Bob'}, {name: 'Alice'}, (err, data) => {
  console.log('updated table `person`: ' + data.changedRows + ' rows named "Bob" changed name to "Alice"')
})

Deleting

SQL: delete from ...

//db.delete(table, condition, callback)
//delete from `person` where `name` = 'Alice';
db.delete('person', {name: 'Alice'}, (err, data) => {
  console.log('deleted ' + data.affectedRows + ' rows named "Alice" from table `person`')
})

Saving

SQL: insert ... on duplicate key update ...

//db.save(table, data, callback)
//insert `person` set `id` = 1, `name` = 'Bob' on duplicate key update `id` = 1, `name` = 'Bob';
db.save('person', {id: 1, name: 'Bob'}, (err, data) => {
  console.log('saved row with id ' + data.insertId + ' with name set to "Bob" into table `person`')
})
//db.save(table, data, field, callback)
//insert `person` set `id` = 1, `name` = 'Bob', gender = 'male' on duplicate key update `gender` = 'male';
db.save('person', {id: 1, name: 'Bob', gender: 'male'}, 'gender', (err, data) => {
  console.log('saved row with id ' + data.insertId + ' and gender set to "male" into table `person`')
})

Selecting

//db.select(table, condition, field, callback)
//select `name`, `gender` from `person` where `name` = 'Bob';
db.select('person', {name: 'Bob'}, ['name', 'gender'], (err, data) => {
  console.log('selected name, gender fields from table `person`, where `name` = "Bob"')
  console.log(data)
  //[{name: 'Bob', gender: 'male'}, {name: 'Bob', gender: 'male'}, {name: 'Bob', gender: 'female'}, ...]
})
//if condition value is an array, its converted to in () statement
//select * from `person` where `name` in ('Bob', 'Alice');
db.select('person', {name: ['Bob', 'Alice']}, (err, data) => {
  console.log('selected all fields table `person`, where `name` is "Bob" or "Alice"')
  console.log(data)
  //[{id: 1, name: 'Bob', gender: 'male'}, {id: 2, name: 'Alice', gender: 'female'}]
})
//if condition is number or string or array, then its treated as condition on id field
//select * from `person` where `id` = 1;
db.select('person', 1, (err, data) => {
  console.log('selected all fields from table `person`, where `id` = 1')
  console.log(data)
  //{id: 1, name: 'Bob', gender: 'male'}
  //if id is set then row object is being returned, instead of array
})
//select * from `person` where id in (1, 2);
db.select('person', [1, 2], (err, data) => {
  console.log('selected all fields from table `person`, where `id` is 1 or 2')
  console.log(data)
  //[{id: 1, name: 'Bob', gender: 'male'}, {id: 2, name: 'Alice', gender: 'female'}]
})
//select `name` from `person` where gender = 'male';
db.select('person', {gender: 'male'}, 'name', (err, data) => {
  console.log('selected `name` of all male persons')
  console.log(data)
  //['Bob', 'Bill', 'Bob', ...]
  //if field is string then returned array contains this field value instead of row object
})
//select `name` from `person` where id = 1;
db.select('person', 1, 'name', (err, data) => {
  console.log('selected `name` of person with `id` = 1')
  console.log(data)
  //'Bob'
  //if id is set and field is string then the field value returned, instead of array
})

Aggregate functions

Supported functions: count, min, max, avg, sum

//db[functionName](table, condition, field, callback)
//select count(*) from `person` where `name` = 'Bob';
db.count('person', {name: 'Bob'}, (err, count) => {
  console.log('there are ' + count + ' persons named "Bob"')  
})
//select min(id) from `person` where `name` = 'Bob';
db.min('person', {name: 'Bob'}, (err, min) => {
  console.log('first "Bob" has id ' + min)  
})
//select name, avg(age) from `person` where `name` = 'Bob';
db.avg('person', {name: 'Bob'}, ['age'], (err, avg) => {
  console.log('Bob average age is ' + avg)  
})
//select name, sum(income) from `person` where `city` = 'Hong Kong' group by name;
db.sum('person', {city: 'Hong Kong', year: '2015'}, ['name', 'income'], (err, data) => {
  console.log('total income of HK citizens by name for 2015')  
  console.log(data)
  //[{name: 'Yun', sum: someNumber}, {name: 'Tony', sum: someNumber}, {name: 'Donnie', sum: someNumber}, ...]
})

SQL query

Proxied to the underlying node-mysql lib, but with swapped 'err' and 'data' arguments (more info here)

db.query('select ??, count(*) as count from ?? group by ?? order by id limit 10', ['gender', 'person', 'gender'], (err, data) => {
  console.log(data)
  //[{gender: 'male', count: someNumber}, {gender: 'female', count: someNumber}, ...]
})

Streaming

Without callback select and insert functions return readable and writeable streams respectively. They can be used to pipe data to other streams (useful for big amounts of data).

//streaming select, outputs all rows in the table
db.select('person').on('data', console.log)
//streaming from select to insert, selects all rows from one table and inserts them to the other table
db.select('person').pipe(db.insert('nosrep'))
//streaming from select to save, selects all rows from one table and saves them to the other table
db.select('person').pipe(db.save('nosrep'))
//streaming from select to delete, selects all rows from one table and deletes them from the other table
db.select('person').pipe(db.delete('nosrep'))
//streaming from select to csv (using fast-csv lib), selects all rows from the table and converts them to csv
db.select('person').pipe(csv.format({headers: true}))
//raw query can be streamed too
db.query('select * from person').on('data', console.log)
//streaming from csv file to insert, inserts csv file into the table
csv.fromPath('my.csv').pipe(db.insert('person'))
//streaming from csv stream to insert, inserts csv formatted readable stream content into the table
csv.fromStream(readableStream).pipe(db.insert('person'))

Query string

SQL query in JSON format
