pg-structure

# Class: Db

Class which represent a database. Provides attributes and methods for details of the database.

# Hierarchy

  • Db

# Properties

# Readonly id

• id: number = Math.random()

Defined in src/pg-structure/db.ts:75

Random assigned id to db.

# Readonly name

• name: string

Defined in src/pg-structure/db.ts:78

Name of database.

# Readonly schemas

• schemas: IndexableArray‹Schema, "name", "oid", true› = IndexableArray.throwingFrom([], "name", "oid")

Defined in src/pg-structure/db.ts:104

All schemas in the database as an {@link IndexableArray indexable array} ordered by their name.

# Example

const schemaArray  = db.schemas;
const isAvailable  = db.schemas.has('another_schema');
const public       = db.schemas.get('public');
const name         = public.name;
const names = db.schemas.map(schema => schema.name);

# Accessors

# entities

• get entities(): IndexableArray‹Entity, "name", "oid", true›

Defined in src/pg-structure/db.ts:143

All entities of the database. Two PostgreSQL schemas may have same named entity. get method of {@link IndexableArray https://www.npmjs.com/package/indexable-array} returns first one. You may also use getAll or get(1234, { key: oid }).

Returns: IndexableArray‹Entity, "name", "oid", true›

# indexes

• get indexes(): IndexableArray‹Index, "name", "oid", true›

Defined in src/pg-structure/db.ts:163

All indexes of the database. Two PostgreSQL schemas may have same named index. get method of {@link IndexableArray https://www.npmjs.com/package/indexable-array} returns first one. You may also use getAll or get(1234, { key: oid }).

Returns: IndexableArray‹Index, "name", "oid", true›

# relationNameCollisions

• get relationNameCollisions(): CollisionsByTable | undefined

Defined in src/pg-structure/db.ts:201

Name colisions of table relations if there are any, otherwise undefined.

Returns: CollisionsByTable | undefined

# tables

• get tables(): IndexableArray‹Table, "name", "oid", true›

Defined in src/pg-structure/db.ts:133

All tables of the database. Two PostgreSQL schemas may have same named table. get method of {@link IndexableArray https://www.npmjs.com/package/indexable-array} returns first one. You may also use getAll or get(1234, { key: oid }).

Returns: IndexableArray‹Table, "name", "oid", true›

# types

• get types(): IndexableArray‹Type, "name", "oid" | "classOid", true›

Defined in src/pg-structure/db.ts:153

All types of the database. Two PostgreSQL schemas may have same named type. get method of {@link IndexableArray https://www.npmjs.com/package/indexable-array} returns first one. You may also use getAll or get(1234, { key: oid }).

Returns: IndexableArray‹Type, "name", "oid" | "classOid", true›

# Methods

# get

▸ get(path: string): Schema | Entity | Column

Defined in src/pg-structure/db.ts:186

Returns schema, table or column for given path. Path should be in dot (.) notation. If no schema is provided looks into public schema as PostgreSQL does.

Note for TypeScript users: Since get() could return one of the many possible types, you may need to specify your expected type using as. i.e. const result = db.get("public") as Schema;

# Example

const schema   = db.get('public');               // Returns public schema.
const table    = db.get('public.contact');       // Returns contact table in public schema.
const table2   = db.get('contact');              // Returns contact table in public schema.
const column   = db.get('public.contact.name');  // Returns name column of the contact table in public schema.
const column2  = db.get('contact.name');         // Returns name column of the contact table in public schema.

Parameters:

Name Type Description
path string is the path of the requested item in dot (.) notation such as public.contact

Returns: Schema | Entity | Column

requested database object.

# serialize

▸ serialize(): string

Defined in src/pg-structure/db.ts:67

Serializes object.

CAVEATS:

  • Serialized data may or may not be deserialized with another version of pg-structure. (Even between minor verisons are not guaranteed).
  • Serialized data is not direct stringified version of objects.
  • Ignores relation name function provided using relationNameFunctions args, if it is not a builtin function.

# Example

import pgStructure, { deserialize } from "pg-structure";
const db = await pgStructure({ database: "db", user: "u", password: "pass" });
const serialized = db.serialize();
const otherDb = deserialize(serialized);

Returns: string
