IdentifiableJsonPostgresPersistence<T extends IIdentifiable<K>, K>

Abstract persistence component that stores data in PostgreSQL in JSON or JSONB fields and implements a number of CRUD operations over data items with unique ids.

Extends: IdentifiablePostgresPersistence<T, K>,

Description

The IdentifiableJsonPostgresPersistence class allows you to create persistence components used to store data in PosgreSQL databases in JSON or JSONB fields and implement a number of CRUD operations over data items with unique ids.

Important points

  • The data items must implement the IIdentifiable interface.
  • In basic scenarios child classes shall only override the getPageByFilter, getListByFilter or deleteByFilter operations with a specific filter function.
  • All other operations can be used out of the box.
  • In complex scenarios child classes can implement additional operations by accessing this._collection and this._model properties.

Configuration parameters

  • table: (optional) PostgreSQL table name
  • schema: (optional) PostgreSQL schema name

connection(s):

  • discovery_key: (optional) key used to retrieve the connection from IDiscovery
  • host: host name or IP address
  • port: port number (default: 27017)
  • uri: resource URI or connection string with all parameters in it

credential(s):

  • store_key: (optional) key to retrieve the credentials from ICredentialStore
  • username: (optional) username
  • password: (optional) user’s password

options:

  • connect_timeout: (optional) number of milliseconds to wait before timing out when connecting a new client (default: 0)
  • idle_timeout: (optional) number of milliseconds a client must sit idle in the pool and not be checked out (default: 10000)
  • max_pool_size: (optional) maximum number of clients the pool can contain (default: 10)

References

  • *:logger:*:*:1.0 - (optional) ILogger components to pass log messages
  • *:discovery:*:*:1.0 - (optional) IDiscovery services
  • *:credential-store:*:*:1.0 - (optional) credential stores to resolve credentials (ICredentialStore)

Constructors

Creates a new instance of the persistence component.

public constructor(tableName: string, schemaName?: string)

  • tableName: string - (optional) a table name.
  • schemaName: string - (optional) a schema name.

Instance methods

convertFromPublic

Converts object value from public to internal format.

protected convertFromPublic(value: any): any

  • value: any - object in public format to convert.
  • returns: any - converted object in internal format.

convertToPublic

Converts object value from internal to public format.

protected convertToPublic(value: any): any

  • value: any - object in internal format to convert.
  • returns: any - converted object in public format.

ensureTable

Adds DML statement to automatically create a JSON(B) table

protected ensureTable(idType: string = ‘TEXT’, dataType: string = ‘JSONB’)

  • idType: string - type of the id column (default: TEXT)
  • dataType: string - type of the data column (default: JSONB)

updatePartially

Updates only few selected fields in a data item.

public update_partially(correlationId: string, id: K, data: AnyValueMap): Promise<T>

  • correlationId: string - (optional) transaction id used to trace execution through the call chain.
  • id: any - id of the data item to be updated.
  • data: AnyValueMap - map with fields to be updated.
  • return: Promise<T> - updated item

Examples

class MyPostgresPersistence extends IdentifiablePostgresJsonPersistence<MyData, string> {
    public constructor() {
        super("mydata", new MyDataPostgresSchema());
    }
    
    protected defineSchema(): void {
        this.clearSchema();
        this.ensureTable();
        this.ensureIndex(this._tableName + '_json_key', { "(data->>'name')": 1 }, { unique: true });
    }
    
    private composeFilter(filter: FilterParams): any {
        filter = filter || new FilterParams();
        let name = filter.getAsNullableString('name');

        let filterCondition: string = "";
        if (name != null)
            filterCondition += "data->>'name'='" + name + "'";
        return filterCondition;
    }
    
    public getPageByFilter(correlationId: string, filter: FilterParams,
        paging: PagingParams): Promise<DataPage<MyData>> {
        return super.getPageByFilter(correlationId, this.composeFilter(filter), paging, null, null);
    }
}

let persistence = new MyPostgresPersistence();
persistence.configure(ConfigParams.fromTuples(
    "connection.host", "localhost",
    "connection.port", 5432,
    "credential.username", "mysql",
    "credential.password", "mysql",
    "connection.database", "mytestobjects"
));

await persitence.open("123");

let item = await persistence.create("123", { id: "1", name: "ABC" });
let page = await persistence.getPageByFilter(
  "123",
  FilterParams.fromTuples("name", "ABC"),
  null
);

console.log(page.data);          // Result: { id: "1", name: "ABC" }
item = await persistence.deleteById("123", "1");
