Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

client-query

v0.1.3

Published

write mongodb queries in the client

Readme

Example

$ npm install client-query

server

Set up express like the example below

const { MongoClient, ObjectId } = require("mongodb")
const express = require("express")
const {postRouter} = require("client-query")
const cors = require('cors')

const url = process.env.DB_URL

const client = new MongoClient(url, { useUnifiedTopology: true })

const app = express()
app.use(cors())
app.use(express.json())

const port = process.env.PORT || 5000

client.connect().then(async () => {
    console.log("Connected correctly to server")
    const db = client.db("employees") //db name

    // here you only need one end point that returns postRouter
    app.post('/', async (req, res) => {
        console.log(req.body)

        return postRouter(req, res, db, ObjectId)

    })

    app.listen(port, () => {
        console.log("app running")
    })
})

client

This library uses the mongodb Node.js API. For more info refer to the mongodb docs

import {client} from "client-query"

const db = client({
        baseURL: "http://localhost:5000/",
        headers: {
            // Authorization: auth.getToken()
        }
    })
    

const addEmployee =  async ()=> {
  await db()
    .insertOne("employees", {firstName: "John", lasName:"Doe"})
    .then(data => {
      console.log(data)
    })
    .catch((err) => {
      console.log(err)
    })
}

const getEmployees = async ()=> {
  await db().find("employees", {firstName:"John"}).then(results => {
      console.log(results)
  }).catch((err) => {
    console.log(err);
  });
  console.log(this.data)
  this.loading = false;
},

query methods


insertOne(collectionName = String, data = Object) // inserts One document in a collection

insertMany(collectionName = String, data = Array) // inserts Many documents in a collection

find(collectionName = String, query = Object) // returns an array of documents in a collection

findOne(collectionName = String, query = Object) // returns a single document from a collection

findById(collectionName = String, id = String) // returns a single document from a collection based on the '_id'

updateMany(collectionName = String, query = Object, data = Object, options = Object) // updates many documents in a collection

updateOne(collectionName = String, query = Object, data = Object, options = Object) // updates a single document in a collection

updateById(collectionName = String, id = String, data = Object, options = Object) // updates a single document in a collection by it's '_id'

deleteMany(collectionName = String, query = Object) // deletes many documents in a collection

deleteOne(collectionName = String, query = Object) // deletes a single document in a collection

deleteById(collectionName = String, id = String) // deletes a single document in a collection by it's '_id'

aggregate(collectionName = String, query = Array) // returns aggregation results

Aggregation Example

Refer to mongoDB Docs for more info and examples on the aggregation pipeline


const getEmployees = async ()=> {
  return await db().aggregate("employees", [
                     { $match: { department: "HR" } },
                     { $group: { _id: "$gender" },
                     { $sort: { total: -1 } }
                   ]).toArray()
},
