nosql-constraints

Helpers to manage constrants (i.e. cascade delete) in a NoSQL database

in progress, expect breaking changes

README file may not be up to date with the functionality, refer to the test files

Supported schema packages

Adding and building constraints

function buildConstraints() {
	const factory = new ConstraintsFactory();
	factory.addDocumentSchema('container1', zod(testCaseSchemas.container1));
	factory.addDocumentSchema('container2', zod(testCaseSchemas.container2));
	factory.addConstraint<Container2Doc1, Container1Doc1>(
		// Referencing document
		{ containerId: 'container2', refDocType: { type: 'C2A' } },
		// Constraint details with mapping of properties (referencing.buddyId -> referenced.id)
		{ refProperties: { buddyId: 'id' }, cascadeDelete: true },
		// Referenced document
		{ containerId: 'container1', refDocType: { type: 'C1A' } }
	);
	factory.addConstraint<Container2Doc3, Container1Doc1>(
		{ containerId: 'container2', refDocType: { type: 'C2C' } },
		{ refProperties: { id: 'id' }, cascadeDelete: true },
		{ containerId: 'container1', refDocType: { type: 'C1A' } }
	);
	factory.addCompoundConstraint<Container2Doc3>(
		{ containerId: 'container2', refDocType: { type: 'C2C' } },
		{
			refProperties: {
				compoundId: 'id'
			},
			cascadeDelete: true
		}
	);
	factory.addConstraint<Container2Doc, Container1Doc1>(
		{ containerId: 'container2' },
		{ refProperties: { 'somePartitionKey.someBuddyId': 'id' }, cascadeDelete: true },
		{ containerId: 'container1', refDocType: { type: 'C1A' } }
	);
	factory.addConstraint<Container1Doc1, Container1Doc2>(
		{ containerId: 'container1', refDocType: { type: 'C1A' } },
		{ refProperties: { id: 'id' }, cascadeDelete: true },
		{ containerId: 'container1', refDocType: { type: 'C1B' } }
	);
	factory.addConstraint<Container1Doc2, Container2Doc2>(
		{ containerId: 'container1', refDocType: { type: 'C1B' } },
		{ refProperties: { id: 'id' } },
		{ containerId: 'container2', refDocType: { type: 'C2B' } }
	);
	// This will also validate constraints
	// Currently:
	//    A graph of constraints (referenced -> referencing) must not have cycles
	//    a constraint that have cascadeDelete = true, must have all following children with cascade delete = true
	//      otherwise an exception is thrown
	const constraints = factory.build();
	return constraints;
}

Querying constraints

// All direct constraints from the document (referenced) to other documents (referencing)
let directConstraints = constraints.getDirectCascadeDeleteConstraints<Container2Doc>('container2', {
	type: 'C2C'
});
// All direct constraints from the document (referenced) to other documents (referencing) that have cascade delete = true
let directConstraints = constraints.getDirectCascadeDeleteConstraints<Container1Doc1>(
	'container1',
	{
		type: 'C1A'
	}
);
// All direct constraints from the document (referenced) to other documents (referencing) that have cascade delete = false/undefined
let directConstraints = constraints.getDirectCascadeDeleteConstraints<Container1Doc1>(
	'container1',
	{
		type: 'C1A'
	}
);
