# smartdata
|
|
|
|
smartdata is a ODM that adheres to TypeScript practices and uses classes to organize data.
|
|
It uses MongoDB as persistent storage.
|
|
|
|
## Intention
|
|
There are many ODMs out there, however when we searched for a ODM that uses TypeScript,
|
|
acts smart while still embracing an easy the NoSQL idea we didn't find a matching solution.
|
|
This is why we started smartdata
|
|
|
|
How MongoDB terms map to smartdata classes
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
```typescript
|
|
import * as smartdata from 'smartdata'
|
|
|
|
let myDb1 = new smartdata.Db('someConnectionUrl')
|
|
let myDb2 = new smartdata.Db('someConnectionUrl')
|
|
|
|
myDb1.connect()
|
|
myDb2.connect()
|
|
|
|
// continues in next block...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### class Collection
|
|
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
|
|
```typescript
|
|
// continues from the block before...
|
|
|
|
class myObject extends smartdata.DbDoc {
|
|
property1:string
|
|
property2:number
|
|
constructor(optionsArg:{
|
|
queryArg?:any,
|
|
dataArg?:{
|
|
property1:string,
|
|
property2:number
|
|
}
|
|
}) {
|
|
super(this,optionsArg)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
let myCollection = myDb1.getCollection(myObject)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> Alert: You NEVER instantiate a collection.
|
|
This is done for you!!!
|
|
|
|
### class DbDoc
|
|
represents a individual document in a collection.
