# @push.rocks/smartclickhouse
an odm for talking to clickhouse
## Install
To install `@push.rocks/smartclickhouse`, use the following command with npm:
```sh
npm install @push.rocks/smartclickhouse --save
```
Or with yarn:
```sh
yarn add @push.rocks/smartclickhouse
```
This will add the package to your project's dependencies.
## Usage
`@push.rocks/smartclickhouse` is an ORM (Object Relational Mapping) module specifically designed for interacting with ClickHouse databases efficiently and effectively. Leveraging TypeScript, it offers strong typing and intelligent code completion, making database operations more intuitive and less error-prone.
### Setting Up and Starting the Connection
First, you need to establish a connection with the ClickHouse database. This involves creating an instance of `SmartClickHouseDb` and starting it:
```typescript
import { SmartClickHouseDb } from '@push.rocks/smartclickhouse';
// Create a new instance of SmartClickHouseDb with your ClickHouse database details
const dbInstance = new SmartClickHouseDb({
url: 'http://localhost:8123', // URL of ClickHouse instance
database: 'yourDatabase', // Database name you want to connect
username: 'default', // Optional: Username for authentication
password: 'password', // Optional: Password for authentication
unref: true // Optional: Allows service to exit while awaiting database startup
});
// Start the instance to establish the connection
await dbInstance.start();
```
### Working with Time Data Tables
`smartclickhouse` allows handling of time-series data through `TimeDataTable`, automating tasks such as table creation and data insertion.
#### Creating or Accessing a Table
To create a new time data table or access an existing one:
```typescript
const tableName = 'yourTimeDataTable'; // Name of the table you want to access or create
const table = await dbInstance.getTable(tableName);
```
#### Adding Data to the Table
Once you have the table instance, you can insert data into it:
```typescript
await table.addData({
timestamp: Date.now(), // Timestamp in milliseconds
message: 'A log message.', // Arbitrary data field
temperature: 22.5, // Another example field
tags: ['tag1', 'tag2'] // An example array field
});
```
`addData` method is designed to be flexible, allowing insertion of various data types and automatically managing table schema adjustments.
### Advanced Usage and Custom Data Handling
`smartclickhouse` supports custom data types and complex data structures. For instance, to add support for nested objects or custom data processing before insertion, you might need to extend existing classes or contribute to module development for broader use cases.
### Complete Feature Set Overview
While the above examples cover basic usage, `@push.rocks/smartclickhouse` offers a wide range of functionalities, including but not limited to:
- Robust error handling and reconnection strategies
- Efficient bulk data insertion mechanisms
- Support for ClickHouse specific features like materialized views and aggregating MergeTree engines
- Techniques for managing and querying large time-series datasets
