🍮 PuddySQL

PuddySQL is a modular and extensible SQL toolkit for Node.js — designed to make dynamic queries, filters, pagination, and tag-based searches easy, safe, and powerful.

Built with composability in mind, each part of PuddySQL focuses on one job while integrating smoothly with the others. Whether you're working with SQLite or PostgreSQL, this package helps you build robust, readable, and scalable query logic.

📦 Installation

🧭 Modules Menu

The PuddySql class is the main access point to all core features of the library. You should not instantiate it directly — instead, use PuddySql.Instance.

Here's a quick overview of what's available:

| 📦 Static Property | 🔍 Description | | ------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | PuddySql.Instance | 🎮 Main SQL client class for managing databases (PostgreSQL or SQLite3) | | PuddySql.Query | 🧠 Query builder and smart search engine with advanced filtering | | PuddySql.Tags | 🏷️ Flexible tag system parser (with support for JSON arrays, boosts, etc.) | | PuddySql.Events | 🎯 Event manager to attach lifecycle hooks to query logic | | PuddySql.Utils | 🛠️ Useful utilities (object flattening, merge helpers, SQL formatters) | | PuddySql.pg | 🐘 PostgreSQL database engine (pg wrapper) | | PuddySql.sqlite3 | 📀 SQLite3 engine for local/in-memory usage (sqlite3 wrapper) |

🚀 Quick Example

Here’s how to get started using PuddySQL:

import path from 'path';
import { fileURLToPath } from 'url';
import PuddySql from 'puddysql';

const __filename = fileURLToPath(import.meta.url);
const __dirname = path.dirname(__filename);

// 🎮 Create a new SQL instance
const db = new PuddySql.Instance();

// 📡 Run queries
(async () => {
  await db.initSqlite3();

  // Insert a new user
  const table = await db.initTable({ name: 'tinytest', id: 'id' }, [
      ['id', 'TEXT', 'PRIMARY KEY'],
      ['prompt', 'TEXT'],
      ['yay', 'BOOLEAN']
  ]);

  console.log('Set');
  console.log(await table.set('1', { prompt: 'pudding', yay: true }));
  console.log(await table.set('2', { prompt: 'cookie', yay: true }));
  console.log(await table.set('3', { prompt: 'brigadeiro', yay: true }));
  console.log(await table.set('4', { prompt: 'banana', yay: false }));
  console.log(await table.set('5', { prompt: 'chocolate', yay: true }));

  console.log('Get All');
  console.log(await table.getAll());

  // Find a user by ID
  console.log('Get');
  const user = await table.get(1);
  console.log(user); // → { id: 1, prompt: 'pudding', yay: true }

  // Get a paginated list
  console.log('Search');
  const data1 = await db.getTable('tinytest').search({
      q: {
        group: 'AND',
        conditions: [{ column: 'prompt', value: 'pudding' }],
      },
    });

  const data2 = await table.search({
      q: {
          group: 'OR',
          conditions: [
            { column: 'prompt', value: 'pudding' },
            { column: 'yay', value: false },
          ],
      },
    });

  console.log(data1); 
  console.log(data2); 
})();
