tts-orm (Tiny TypeScript ORM)

Lightweight TypeScript ORM.

NOTICE: May not be production ready.

Installation

npm: npm install @tinyts/tts-orm Yarn: yarn add @tinyts/tts-orm

Usage

Details of usage can also be found in the integration tests. See __tests__/integration.

Connecting to a database.

Create a class which implements the ConnectionInterface. Initialize tts-orm using your connection class. See initialization steps below.

import { ConnectionInterface } from '@tinyts/tts-orm';

export class Connection implements ConnectionInterface {
    ...
}

Initializing tts-orm

The EntityManager instance returned upon initialization can be used to save and delete models. It's automatically connected to the ActiveModel class upon initialization.

import { init } from '@tinyts/tts-orm'
import { Connection } from './your_connection_file';

const entityManager: EntityManager = init({
    connection: new Connection()
});

Defining models

If you're using the active record implementation, make sure your models extend ActiveModel.

import { Model, Column, ActiveModel } from '@tinyts/tts-orm';

@Model({table: 'People'})
class Person extends ActiveModel {
    @Column({primary: true, autoIncrements: true})
    private id: number;
    
    // Define the column name if your property name is not the same.
    @Column({name: 'first_name', nullable: false})
    private firstName: string;
    
    // Columns are nullable by default.
    @Column({name: 'last_name', nullable: false})
    private lastName: string;
    
    @Column()
    private height: number | null;
}

Active Record

Use Active Record pattern by extending ActiveModel.

import { Person } from './person'; // See `Defining Models` for this definition.

const p = new Person();
person.firstName = 'John';
person.lastName = 'Doe';

// Save and delete
await p.save();
await p.delete();

// Querying
const johns = await Person.where('first_name', 'John', '=').all();

Repository

Encapsulate model read operations inside of repository classes.

import { AbstractRepository } from '@tinyts/tts-orm';
import { entityManager } from './my_initialization_file';
import { MyModel } from './my_model_file';

class MyModelRepository extends AbstractRepository {
    constructor() {
        super(MyModel, entityManager);
    }
    
    findAll(): Promise<MyModel[]> {
        const query = {
            sql: 'SELECT * FROM MyModels';
            parameters: []
        };
        
        // Results from this.query are instances of the model.
        return this.query(query) as Promise<MyModel[]>;
    }
}
