Usage

JSONliteDB currently features three external functions. All use similar parameters which will be described below:

The Functions

Here are the three external functions that JSONlitDB currently offers:

readCollectionData

The GET function, used to pull data already recorded to the database. You will have a JSON with your data returned.

This function has two mandatory parameters:

1. colName
2. docName

Example:

let serverId = 9021042069 
let docName = “bdayevent” 

readCollectionData(serverId, docName)

writeCollectionData

The PUSH function, used to record data to the database, you will have a status message returned on successful or unsuccessful writes. Note, this function also acts as an initializer for collections, if the collection name you provide is new, it will be created and your data will be written under that newly created collection.

This function has three mandatory parameters:

1. colName
2. docName
3. data

Example:

let serverId = 9021042069 
let docName = “bdayevent” 
let data = { Inuarashi: 100 } 

writeCollectionData(serverId, docName, data)

deleteCollectionData

The DELETE function, used to delete data from the database. you will have a status message returned on successful or unsuccessful deletions.

This function has two mandatory parameters:

1. colName
2. docName

Example:

let serverId = 9021042069 
let docName = “bdayevent” 

deleteCollectionData(serverId, docName)
