install

npm install modella-glint

usage

setup

var model = require('modella');
var Storage = require('modella-glint');
var Adapter = require('glint-adapter');
var Ajax = require('glint-adapter-ajax');
 
var adapter = Adapter(Ajax()).db('myDb');
var storage = Storage(adapter);
 

model definition (schema)

 
var User = model('user')
  .attr('id')
  .attr('name')
  .attr('email')
  .attr('password');
 
User.use(storage);
 

model instance

var user = new User;
 
user.id('hanswurst')
  .name('hans')
  .email('[e-mail]')
  .password('grischuna');
 
user.save(function(err) {
  console.log(user.toJSON());
});
 

model functions

load(id, fn)

called on model

User.load('hanswurst', function (err, model) {
  var json = model.toJSON();
  // json.name == 'hans'
});

find(query, fn)

called on model query is dependent on the used adapter. e.g. for glint-adapter-fs, use the mingo syntax.

User.find({name: 'hans'}, function (err, model) {
 
  Object.keys(model).forEach(function (key) {
    var item = model[key].json();
    // item.name == 'gruyere'
    // item.email == '[e-mail]'
  });
 
});

instance functions

save(fn)

called on instance note: unlike described in the adapter plugin guide, this implementation requires the id to be set manually. if the id() aka primary() is not set, it will throw an Error.

user.save(function (err, model) {
  var json = model.toJSON();
  // json.id == 'hanswurst'
});

remove(fn)

called on instance note: modella only supports remove, but NOT delete, as it is used with glint-adapter.

user.remove(function (err, model) {
  var json = model.toJSON();
  // json.id == 'hanswurst'
});
