like-mysql

Simple and intuitive ORM for MySQL

const mysql = require('like-mysql')

// create a pool easily with good defaults
const db = mysql('127.0.0.1:3306', 'root', 'secret', 'myapp')

// wait until a connection is established
await db.ready()

// INSERT INTO `ips` (`addr`, `hits`) VALUES (?, ?)
const id = await db.insert('ips', { addr: req.ip, hits: 0 })

// SELECT `addr`, `hits` FROM `ips` WHERE addr = ?
const rows = await db.select('ips', ['addr', 'hits'], 'addr = ?', req.ip)

// SELECT `addr`, `hits` FROM `ips` WHERE addr = ? LIMIT 1
const row = await db.selectOne('ips', ['addr', 'hits'], 'addr = ?', req.ip)

// SELECT EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM `ips` WHERE addr = ? LIMIT 1)
const exists = await db.exists('ips', 'addr = ?', req.ip)

// SELECT COUNT(1) FROM `ips` WHERE addr = ?
const count = await db.count('ips', 'addr = ?', req.ip)

// UPDATE `ips` SET `hits` = ? WHERE addr = ? LIMIT 1
await db.update('ips', { hits: 1 }, 'addr = ? LIMIT 1', req.ip)

// UPDATE `ips` SET `hits` = hits + ? WHERE addr = ?
await db.update('ips', [{ hits: 'hits + ?' }, 1], 'addr = ?', req.ip)

// DELETE FROM `ips` WHERE addr = ? LIMIT 1
await db.delete('ips', 'addr = ? LIMIT 1', req.ip)

// getConnection, beginTransaction, callback, commit/rollback, release
await db.transaction(async function (conn) {
  const id = await conn.insert('users', { username: 'lukks', ... })
  await conn.insert('profiles', { owner: id, ... })
})

// execute
const [res, fields] = await db.execute('SELECT * FROM `ips` WHERE `addr` = ?', [req.ip])

// query
const [res, fields] = await db.query('SELECT * FROM `ips` WHERE `addr` = "8.8.8.8"')

// end pool
await db.end()

Install

npm i like-mysql

Description

node-mysql2 is used to create the MySQL pool.
like-sql is used to build the SQL queries.
Operations are prepared statements made by execute.
Promise version. All custom methods are also promised.

Automatic WHERE when find argument doesn't start with:
ORDER BY, LIMIT or GROUP BY

Examples

constructor

// host:port
const db = mysql('127.0.0.1:3306', 'root', 'secret', 'mydb')

// socketPath
const db = mysql('/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock', 'root', 'secret', 'mydb')

ready

Wait for database started by docker-compose, etc.

// default timeout (15s)
await db.ready() // will throw in case is not able to connect

// custom timeout
await db.ready(5000)

insert

// with autoincrement id:
const insertId = await db.insert('ips', { addr: req.ip, hits: 0 })
console.log(insertId) // => 1336

// otherwise it always returns zero:
const insertId = await db.insert('config', { key: 'title', value: 'Database' })
console.log(insertId) // => 0

select

const rows = await db.select('ips', ['*'], 'addr = ?', req.ip)
console.log(rows) // => [{ id: 2, addr: '8.8.4.4', hits: 2 }]

const rows = await db.select('ips', ['addr', 'hits'], 'ORDER BY hits DESC')
console.log(rows) // => [{ addr: '8.8.8.8', hits: 6 }, { addr: '8.8.4.4', hits: 2 }, ...]

selectOne

const row = await db.selectOne('ips', ['addr', 'hits'], 'addr = ?', req.ip)
console.log(row) // => { addr: '8.8.4.4', hits: 2 }

const row = await db.selectOne('ips', ['addr', 'hits'], 'addr = ?', '0.0.0.0')
console.log(row) // => undefined

exists

const exists = await db.exists('ips', 'addr = ?', req.ip)
console.log(exists) // => true

count

const total = await db.count('ips', 'addr = ?', req.ip)
console.log(total) // => 2

update

const changedRows = await db.update('ips', { hits: 1 }, 'addr = ?', req.ip)
console.log(changedRows) // => 1

const changedRows = await db.update('ips', [{ hits: 'hits + ?' }, 1], 'addr = ?', req.ip)
console.log(changedRows) // => 1

delete

const affectedRows = await db.delete('ips', 'addr = ?', req.ip)
console.log(affectedRows) // => 1

transaction

Normally with a pool you do something like:

• conn = pool.getConnection()
• conn.beginTransaction()
• conn.execute('INSERT INTO users (username, password) VALUES (?, ?)')
• conn.execute('INSERT INTO profile (owner, name) VALUES (?, ?)')
• conn.commit()
• conn.release()

Also checking different catchs to release and/or rollback.

This method simplifies all that and you just do the important part:

await db.transaction(async function (conn) {
  const id = await conn.insert('users', { username: 'lukks', ... })
  await conn.insert('profiles', { owner: id, ... })
})

You can also return a custom value:

const result = await db.transaction(async function (conn) {
  await conn.insert(...)
  return 'custom value'
})

console.log(result) // => 'custom value'

end

await db.end()

Tests

Start a database instance

docker run --rm -p 3305:3306 -e MYSQL_ROOT_USER=root -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=secret -d mysql:8.0

Run tests

npm test

Stop container and due --rm will be auto deleted

docker ps
docker stop cc6
