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 🙏

Readme

sqltomango

Build Status npm version

A simple Node.js library that converts Structured Query Language (SQL) into CouchDB Mango / Cloudant Query JSON objects. Mango is the code name for the query language used in Apache CouchDB and IBM Cloudant. It uses JSON to represent queries. This tool converts SQL strings into Mango objects, to allow users to interact with CouchDB/Cloudant database with SQL queries.

Installation

Use sqltomango in your project with:

npm install --save sqltomango

Import the library into your code:

var sqltomango = require('sqltomango');

Usage

The sqltomango library is a single function that accepts one argument - a string containing the SQL you wish to convert to a query object:

var q = sqltomango.parse("SELECT * FROM dogs WHERE owner = 'glynn'")

It returns an object which can be used to to query a CouchDB or Cloudant database:

{
  "table": "dogs",
  "selector": {
    "owner": {
    "$eq": "glynn"
    }
  }
}

This works for more complex queries too:

var q = sqltomango.parse("SELECT _id, age, breed FROM dogs WHERE owner = 'glynn' OR (name='towser' AND colour='white') ORDER BY age DESC LIMIT 500,1500")
// produces...
{
  "table": "dogs",
  "fields": [
    "_id",
    "age",
    "breed"
  ],
  "selector": {
    "$or": [
      {
        "owner": {
          "$eq": "glynn"
        }
      },
      {
        "$and": [
          {
            "name": {
              "$eq": "towser"
            }
          },
          {
            "colour": {
              "$eq": "white"
            }
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  },
  "sort": [
    {
      "age": "desc"
    }
  ],
  "limit": 1500,
  "skip": 500
}

Errors

An exception is thrown if the SQL does not parse or contains SQL features not supported by Mango including:

  • GROUP BY
  • SUM/COUNT/AVG/DISTINCT
  • UNION
  • JOIN
