|

smartdata is an ODM that adheres to TypeScript practices and uses classes to organize data.
|
||||
It uses MongoDB or NeDb as persistent storage.
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
Use TypeScript for best in class instellisense.
|
||||
|
||||
## Intention
|
||||
There are many ODMs out there, however when we searched for an ODM that uses TypeScript,
|
||||
acts smart while still embracing the NoSQL idea we didn't find a matching solution.
|
||||
This is why we started smartdata.
|
||||
For further information read the linked docs at the top of this README.

MongoDB term | smartdata class
|
||||
--- | ---
|
||||
Database | smartdata.Db
|
||||
Collection | smartdata.DbCollection
|
||||
Document | smartdata.DbDoc
|
||||
|
||||
### class Db
|
||||
represents a Database. Naturally it has .connect() etc. methods on it.
|
||||
Since it is a class you can have multiple DBs defined.
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
import * as smartdata from 'smartdata'
|
||||
|
||||
// mongodb
|
||||
let myDb1 = new smartdata.Db('someConnectionUrl')
|
||||
let myDb2 = new smartdata.Db('someConnectionUrl')
|
||||
|
||||
// nedb
|
||||
let myDb3 = new smartdata('/some/path/for/persistence', 'nedb') // you may set first argument to null for just in memory db
|
||||
|
||||
myDb1.connect()
|
||||
myDb2.connect()
|
||||
|
||||
// continues in next block...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### class DbCollection
|
||||
represents a collection of objects.
|
||||
A collection is defined by the object class (that is extending smartdata.dbdoc) it respresents
|
||||
|
||||
So to get to get access to a specific collection you document
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// continues from the block before...
|
||||
|
||||
@Collection(myDb1)
|
||||
class myObject extends smartdata.DbDoc<myObject> { // read the next block about DbDoc
|
||||
@smartdata.svDb() property1: string // @smartdata.svDb() marks the property for db save
|
||||
property2: number // this one is not marked, so it won't be save upon calling this.save()
|
||||
constructor(optionsArg:{
|
||||
property1: string,
|
||||
property2: number
|
||||
}) {
|
||||
super()
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
let myCollection = myDb1.getCollectionByName<myObject>(myObject)
|
||||
|
||||
// start to instantiate classes from scratch or database
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> Alert: You NEVER instantiate a collection.
|
||||
This is done for you!!!
|
||||
|
||||
### class DbDoc
|
||||
represents a individual document in a collection
|
||||
and thereby is ideally suited to extend the class you want to actually store.
|
||||
|
||||
DbDoc extends your class with the following methods:
|
||||
|
||||
* `.save()` will save (or update) the object you call it on only. Any referenced non-savable objects will not get stored.
|
||||
* `.saveDeep()` does the same like `.save()`.
|
||||
In addition it will look for properties that reference an object
|
||||
that extends DbDoc as well and call .saveDeep() on them as well.
|
||||
Loops are prevented
|
||||
|
||||
So now we can **store** instances of classes to Db...
|
||||
How do we **get** a new class instance from a Doc in the DB?
|
||||
|
||||
## TypeScript
|
||||
How does TypeScript play into this?
|
||||
Since you define your classes in TypeScript and types flow through smartdata in a generic way
|
||||
you should get all the Intellisense and type checking you love when using smartdata.
|
||||
smartdata itself also bundles typings.
|
||||
So you don't need to install any additional types when importing smartdata.
