MemoryPersistence<T>

Persistence component that stores data in memory.

Implements: IConfigurable, IReferenceable, IOpenable, ICleanable

Description

The MemoryPersistence class allows you to create persistence components that store data in memory.

Important points

  • This is the most basic persistence component that is only able to store data items of any type.
  • Specific CRUD operations over the data items must be implemented in child classes by accessing the this._items property and calling the save method.
  • The component supports loading and saving items from another data source. This allows to use it as a base class for file and other types of persistence components that cache all data in memory.

Configuration parameters

options:

  • max_page_size: maximum number of items returned in a single page (default: 100)

References

  • *:logger:*:*:1.0 - (optional) (../../../components/log/ilogger) components to pass log messages

Constructors

Creates a new instance of the memory persistence component.

public constructor(loader: ILoader, saver: ISaver)

  • loader: ILoader - (optional) loader used to load items from an external datasource.
  • saver: ISaver - (optional) saver used to save items to an external datasource.

Fields

_logger

Logger.

protected _logger: CompositeLogger

_items

Items to load/save.

protected _items: T[]

_loader

Loader.

protected _loader: ILoader

_saver

Saver.

protected _saver: ISaver

_opened

Boolean that indicates whether the compent is open or not.

protected _opened: boolean = false

_maxPageSize

Maximum amount of items per page.

protected _maxPageSize: number = 100

Instance methods

clear

Clears the component’s state.

public clear(correlationId: string): Promise<void>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.

configure

Configures the component by passing its configuration parameters.

public configure(config: ConfigParams): void

  • config: ConfigParams - configuration parameters to be set.

create

Creates a data item.

public create(correlationId: string, item: T): Promise<T>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.
  • item: T - item to be created.
  • returns: Promise<T> - created item

deleteByFilter

Deletes data items that match to a given filter. This method shall be called by a public deleteByFilter method from a child class that receives FilterParams and converts them into a filter function.

protected deleteByFilter(correlationId: string, filter: any): Promise<void>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.
  • filter: any - (optional) filter function used to filter items.

getCountByFilter

Gets the number of items retrieved by a given filter.

This method shall be called by a public getCountByFilter method from a child class that receives FilterParams and converts them into a filter function.

protected getCountByFilter(correlationId: string, filter: any): Promise<number>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.
  • filter: any - id of the item to be deleted
  • returns: Promise<number> - number of data items that satisfy the filter.

getListByFilter

Gets a list of data items retrieved by a given filter and sorted according to sorting parameters.

This method shall be called by a public getListByFilter method from a child class that receives FilterParams and converts them into a filter function.

protected getListByFilter(correlationId: string, filter: any, sort: any, select: any): Promise<T[]>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.
  • filter: any - (optional) filter function used to filter items
  • sort: any - (optional) sorting parameters
  • select: any - (optional) projection parameters (not used yet)
  • returns: Promise<T[]> - data list of filtered results.

getOneRandom

Gets a random item from items that match to a given filter.

This method shall be called by a public getOneRandom method from a child class that receives FilterParams and converts them into a filter function.

protected getOneRandom(correlationId: string, filter: any): Promise<T>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.
  • filter: any - (optional) a filter function to filter items.
  • returns: Promise<T> - random item.

getPageByFilter

Gets a page of data items retrieved by a given filter and sorted according to sorting parameters.

This method shall be called by a public getPageByFilter method from a child class that receives FilterParams and converts them into a filter function.

protected getPageByFilter(correlationId: string, filter: any, paging: PagingParams, sort: any, select: any): Promise<DataPage>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.
  • filter: any - filter function used to filter items
  • paging: PagingParams - (optional) paging parameters
  • sort: any - (optional) sorting parameters
  • select: any - (optional) projection parameters (not used yet)
  • returns: Promise<DataPage> - data page with filterd results.

isOpen

Checks if the component is open.

public isOpen(): boolean

  • returns: boolean - True if the component is open and False otherwise.

load

Loads items.

protected load(correlationId: string): Promise<void>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.

open

Opens the component.

public open(correlationId: string): Promise<void>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.

save

Saves items to an external data source using a configured saver component.

public save(correlationId: string): Promise<void>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.

setReferences

Sets the component’s references. References must match configured dependencies.

public setReferences(references: IReferences): void

Examples

class MyMemoryPersistence extends MemoryPersistence<MyData> {
     
    public async getByName(correlationId: string, name: string): Promise<MyData> {
        let item = this._items.find((d) => d.name == name);
        return item;
    }); 
  
    public set(correlatonId: string, item: MyData): Promise<MyData> {
        this._items = this._items.find((d) => d.name != name);
        this._items.push(item);
        await this.save(correlationId);
        return item;
    }
  
}
let persistence = new MyMemoryPersistence();
    
let item = await persistence.set("123", { name: "ABC" });
item = await persistence.getByName("123", "ABC");
console.log(item);                   // Result: { name: "ABC" }
