Tiny DB

Tiny DB is a JSON document store database.

The API is based on MongoDB, however it may not stay compatible forever.

Getting started

The configuration is prety straitforward, this is one of the most important aspect of TinyDB: Easy to install, easy to use.

The client will try to connect to the service using a single url parameter. To start either choose null for an in-memory database or a local directory to use as storage. For more option refer to the section named scalling service.

I will present here the most useful function that you need to start using your new database.

Connection

// Connection URL
var url = null; // Use in-memory database
// Use connect method to connect to db service
ClientDb.connect(url, function(err, db) {
  // ...
})

Insertion

Inserts a document or documents into a collection.

The method take either a simple object or an array of object. The second argument can be an option object with some settings, and the last argument is a callback to call at the end of the query.

// Get the documents collection
var collection = db.collection('documents')
// Insert some documents
collection.insert([
    {a : 1}, {a : 2}, {a : 3}
  ], function (err, res) {
    // ...
  })

Options are:

• writeConcern : See Safe Writes.
• ordered : Should the items inserted in given order or in parralel.

Update

// Get the documents collection
var collection = db.collection('documents')
// Insert some documents
collection.update(
  { a : 2 },
  { $set: { b : 1 } },
  function (err, res) {
    // ...
  })

Delete

// Get the documents collection
var collection = db.collection('documents')
// Insert some documents
collection.update(
  { a : 3 },
  function (err, res) {
    // ...
  })

Find

// Get the documents collection
var collection = db.collection('documents')
// Insert some documents
collection.find({}).toArray(function (err, docs) {
    // ...
  })
