seneca-geteventstore-store

A Seneca.js data storage plugin

This module is a plugin for Seneca.js. It provides a storage engine that uses GetEventStore to persist data and is ready for production use. It may also be used as an example on how to implement a storage plugin for Seneca.

For a gentle introduction to Seneca itself, see the senecajs.org site.

Install

To install, simply use npm. Remember you will need to install Seneca.js seperately.

npm install seneca
npm install seneca-geteventstore-store

Test

To run tests, simply use npm:

npm run test

Quick Example

var seneca = require('seneca')()
seneca.use('geteventstore-store',{
  host:'127.0.0.1',
  port: 2113
})
 
seneca.ready(function(){
  var apple = seneca.make$('fruit')
  apple.name  = 'Pink Lady'
  apple.price = 0.99
  apple.save$(function (err,apple) {
    console.log( "apple.id = " + apple.id  )
  })
})
 
seneca.ready(function(){
  var apple = seneca.make$('fruit')
  apple.name  = 'Pink Lady'
  apple.price = 0.99
  apple.save$(function(err,apple){
    console.log( "apple.id = "+apple.id  )
  })
})

Usage

You don't use this module directly. It provides an underlying data storage engine for the Seneca entity API:

var entity = seneca.make$('typename')
entity.someproperty = "something"
entity.anotherproperty = 100
 
entity.save$(function (err, entity) { ... })
entity.load$({id: ... }, function (err, entity) { ... })
entity.list$({property: ... }, function (err, entity) { ... })
entity.remove$({id: ... }, function (err, entity) { ... })

Query Support

The standard Seneca query format is supported:

• .list$({f1:v1, f2:v2, ...}) implies pseudo-query f1==v1 AND f2==v2, ....

• .list$({f1:v1,...}, {sort$:{field1:1}}) means sort by f1, ascending.

• .list$({f1:v1,...}, {sort$:{field1:-1}}) means sort by f1, descending.

• .list$({f1:v1,...}, {limit$:10}) means only return 10 results.

• .list$({f1:v1,...}, {skip$:5}) means skip the first 5.

• .list$({f1:v1,...}, {fields$:['fd1','f2']}) means only return the listed fields.

Note: you can use sort$, limit$, skip$ and fields$ together.

Native Driver

As with all seneca stores, you can access the native driver, in this case, the geteventstore-clent client object using entity.native$(function (err, collection) {...}).
