npdynamodb

Forked from noppoMan/npdynamodb. This fork intends primarily to maintain the migration capabilities of the original package. No testing, beyond the original unit tests, is done on any area besides the migrator.

A Node.js Simple Query Builder and ORM for AWS DynamoDB.

Motivation

When I visited here for the first time, I closed it in a moment. Because it is too long and hard to see to understand. So I decided to make client to handle DynamoDB more easier and it doesn't take waste of time to read documentation for it.

Services that are used in Production

Supported DynamoDB Api Versions

• 2012-08-10

Installation

npm install @jitterbit/npdynamodb

Why is the Pure AWS-SDK in Node.js NOT good?

Parameters are like Chant of the magic. http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaScriptSDK/latest/AWS/DynamoDB.html

Overview

Npdynamodb has modern interfaces to handle AWS DynamoDB. We release you redundancy codes and see simple syntax. Of course, will not see callback hell!

Npdynamodb has the following functions

• Simple QueryBuilder
• Light ORM(Active Record Model Like)
• DynamoDB Migrator
• Command Line Interface

List of npdynamodb apis

• QueryBuilder Apis
• ORM Apis
• Migration Apis

Usage of QueryBuilder

Initialization

var npdynamodb = require('npdynamodb');
var AWS = require('aws-sdk');

var dynamodb = new AWS.DynamoDB({
  apiVersion: '2012-08-10'
});

var npd = npdynamodb.createClient(dynamodb);

// Or can take options
var npd = npdynamodb.createClient(dynamodb, {
  timeout: 3000,
  initialize: function(){
    // Some Initialization here.
  }
});

Get by hash key (getItem operation)

npd().table('users')
.where("id", 1)
.first()
.then(function(data){

  console.log(data)
  // => {Item: {id: 1, name: 'Tonny'}, Count: 1, ScannedCount: 1}

})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

Get rows with where (query operation)

npd().table('users')
.where('name', 'tonny') //hash key
.then(function(data){

  console.log(data)
  // => {Items: [{id: 1, name: 'Tonny'}], Count: 1, ScannedCount: 1}

})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

Get multiple rows with where, filter and descending order

npd().table('chats')
.where('room_id', 'room1') // hash key
.where('timestamp', '>', 1429454911) // range key
.filter('user_name', 'tonny') // non index key
.desc()
.then(function(data){
  console.log(data);
})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

whereIn

whereIn call batchGetItem instead of query operation.

Single Key Usage

npd().table('chats')
.whereIn('room_id', ['room1', 'room2', 'room3'])
.then(function(data){
  console.log(data);
})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

Multiple Kyes Usage

npd().table('chats')
.whereIn(['room_id', 'timestamp'], [['room1', 1429454911], ['room2', 1429454912], ['room3', 1429454913]])
.then(function(data){
  console.log(data);
})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

Limit and offset

npd().table('chats')
.where('room_id', 'room1')
.limit(10)
.offset(ExclusiveStartKey)
.then(function(data){
  console.log(data);
})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

Count

npd().table('chats')
.where('room_id', 'room1')
.count()
.then(function(data){
  console.log(data.Count);
})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

Extra options

You can set extra options in callback of feature method. All options are transformed from property to method, But its name (camelized) and arguments are same as pure AWS-SDK for node.js.

npd().table('users')
.where('name', 'tonny')
.feature(function(f){ // f is raw feature object.
  f.consistentRead(true);
  f.returnConsumedCapacity('TOTAL');
})
.then(function(data){
  console.log(data);
})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

create (Make Overwrite all of values, if key[s] have already existed.)

npd().table('users')
.create({ // Also can save collection.
  id: 2,
  name: 'rhodes',
  company: {
    name: 'Stark Industry',
    tel: '123456789',
    zip: '123456789',
    address: 'foo-bar-123'
  }
})
.then(function(data){
  console.log(data);
})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

Update

npd().table('users')
.set("company", "PUT", {
  name: 'moved company',
  tel: '123-456-789',
  zip: '123-456-789',
  address: 'foo-bar-456'
})
.set("suite_color", "ADD", 1)
.update()
.then(function(data){
  console.log(data);
})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

Update with expressions

npd().table('users')
.feature(function(f){
  f.updateExpression('SET #gt = if_not_exists(#gt, :one)');

  f.expressionAttributeNames({
    '#gt': 'gender_type'
  });

  f.expressionAttributeValues({
    ':one': 1
  });

  f.returnValues('UPDATED_NEW');
})
.update()
.then(function(data){
  console.log(data);
})
.catch(function(err){
  console.err(err);
});

Usage of ORM

Initialization

var npdynamodb = require('npdynamodb');
var AWS = require('aws-sdk');

var npd = npdynamodb.createClient(new AWS.DynamoDB({
  apiVersion: '2012-08-10'
}));

var Chat = npdynamodb.define('chats', {
  npdynamodb: npd,

  hashKey: 'id',

  rangeKey: 'timestamp'
});

Fast get with hash_key

Chat.find(1).then(function(chat){  // where('id', '=', 1)
  // Get value of id key
  console.log(chat.get('id'));

  // Get attribute keys
  console.log(chat.keys());

  // Get attribute values
  console.log(chat.values());

  // Pick specified key and value pairs
  console.log(chat.pick('chat_id', 'timestamp'));

  // Transform as json string.
  console.log(chat.toJson());
});

fetch with multiple conditions

Chat.where('id', 1)
// complex conditions
.query(function(qb){
  qb.whereBeteen('timestamp', 1429212102, 1429212202);
})
.fetch()
.then(function(data){

  // Check query result is empty?
  console.log(data.isEmpty());
  // => false

  // Get First Item
  console.log(data.first().get('id'));
  // => 1

  // Get Last Item
  console.log(data.last().get('id'));
  // => 1

  // Seequence(Also supported map, find, etc....)
  data.each(function(item){
    console.log(item.get('id'));
  });

  // Pluck specific column values.
  console.log(data.pluck('id'));

  // Get as object.
  console.log(data.toArray());
  // => [{id: 1, name: 'tonny', company: {....}}]

});

Save

// As Static
Chat.save({
  room_id: 'room1',
  ....
})
.then(function(chat){
  console.log(chat.get('room_id'));
});

// As Instance
var chat = new Chat({
  room_id: 'room1',
  user_id: 1
});
chat.set('message', 'This is a message.');

chat.save()
.then(function(chat){
  console.log(chat.get('room_id'));
});

Destroy

chat.destroy()
.then(function(data){
  console.log(data);
});

Custom Methods and Properties

var Chat = npdynamodb.define('chats', {
  npdynamodb: npd,

  hashKey: 'id',

  rangeKey: 'timestamp',

  customProtoTypeConstant: 1,

  customProtoTypeMethod: function(){
    return this.get('id') === 1;
  }

},

{
  customStaticConstant: 1,

  customStaticMethod: function(){
    return this.where('room_id', 'room1')
      .query(function(qb){
        qb.filter('timestamp', '>', 1429212102);
      })
      .fetch();
  }
});

// prototype
Chat.find(1).then(function(chat){
  console.log(chat.customProtoTypeConstant);
  console.log(chat.customeProtoTypeMethod());
});


// static
console.log(Chat.customStaticConstant);

Chat.customStaticMethod().then(function(data){
  console.log(data);
});

Migration

We support schema migration for Dynamodb.

First, initialize your project to run migration.

npm install -g npdynamodb
# cd /path/to/your/project
npd init
# created npdfile.js

npdfile.js

'use strict';

var AWS = require('aws-sdk');

var dynamodb = new AWS.DynamoDB({
  apiVersion: '2012-08-10',
  accessKeyId: "AWS_KEY",
  secretAccessKey: "AWS_SECRET",
  region: "ap-northeast-1"
});

module.exports = {

  // Specify migration file path. Default is `./migrations`
  // migration: {
  //  migrationFilePath: './npdynamodb_migrations'
  // },

  development: {
    dynamoClient: dynamodb,
    migrations: {
      ProvisionedThroughput: [10, 10],
      tableName: 'npd_migrations'
    }
  },

  staging: {
    dynamoClient: dynamodb,
    migrations: {
      ProvisionedThroughput: [10, 10],
      tableName: 'npd_migrations'
    }
  },

  production: {
    dynamoClient: dynamodb,
    migrations: {
      ProvisionedThroughput: [10, 10],
      tableName: 'npd_migrations'
    }
  }
};

Generate migration file.

npd migrate:generate create_users
# => /migrations/20150406083039_create_users.js

Edit migration file

exports.up = function(migrator){
  return migrator().createTable('chats', function(t){
    t.string('room_id').hashKey();
    t.number('timestamp').rangeKey();
    t.provisionedThroughput(100, 100); // read, write

    t.globalSecondaryIndex('indexName1', function(t){
      t.string('user_id').hashKey();
      t.provisionedThroughput(100, 100); // read, write
      t.projectionTypeAll(); //default is NONE
    });

    t.localSecondaryIndex('indexName2', function(t){
      t.string('room_id').hashKey();
      t.number('user_id').rangeKey();
      t.projectionTypeAll(); //default is NONE
    });
  });
};

exports.down = function(migrator){
  return migrator().deleteTable('chats');
};

UpdateTable Usage

exports.up = function(migrator, config){
  return migrator().updateTable('test_table1', function(t){
    t.globalSecondaryIndexUpdates(function(t){

      t.create('indexName3', function(t){
        t.string('hash_key2').hashKey();
        t.provisionedThroughput(100, 100);
        t.projectionTypeAll();
      });

      t.delete('indexName2');

      t.update('indexName1', function(t){
        t.provisionedThroughput(150, 100);
      });

      t.provisionedThroughput(200, 200);

    });
  }).then(function(){
    // wait until tables state will be ACTIVE.
    return migrator().waitUntilTableActivate('test_table1');
  });
};

QueryBuilder Callbacks

You can be hooked several events and their can be taken promise.

Mechanism of Callbacks and Events

operation called.
      ↓
callbacks: beforeQuery
      ↓
events: beforeQuery
      ↓
Sending Request to Dynamodb
      ↓
Getting Response from Dynamodb
      ↓
callbacks: afterQuery
      ↓
events: afterQuery

// Register callbacks globally
var npd = npdynamodb.createClient(dynamodb, {
  initialize: function(){
    this.callbacks('beforeQuery', function(){
      if(this._fature.params['hash_key'] !== 1) {
        return Promise.reject(new Error('invalid value'));
      }
    });

    this.callbacks('afterQuery', function(result){
      return npd().table('related').create({
        foo_id: result.Items[0]['hash_key'],
        bar: 'string value'
      });
    });
  }
});

// Register callbacks at only this time.
npd().table('foo').callbacks('beforeQuery', Func).create({
  hoo: 'hoo',
  bar: 'bar'
});

Plugin and Extending

Npdynamodb can be extended via plugins.

npdynamodb.plugin(function(Klass){

  // Extend QueryBuilder
  Klass.QueryBuilder.extend({
    protoFn: function(){
      console.log('foo');
    }
  },
  {
    staticFn: function(){
      console.log('bar');
    }
  });

  // Extend Orm Collection
  Klass.Collection.extend({
    protoFn: function(){
      console.log('foo');
    }
  },
  {
    staticFn: function(){
      console.log('bar');
    }
  });

  // Extend Orm Model
  Klass.Model.extend({
    protoFn: function(){
      console.log('foo');
    }
  },
  {
    staticFn: function(){
      console.log('bar');
    }
  });

});

Available Plugins

• npdynamodb-typecast For casting hash and range key to actual attribution type

Upgrading and Release Note

Upgrading 0.1x -> 0.2x

QueryBuilder

There should be a minor change for QueryBuilder. 0.2x QueryBuilder can take options as second argument of createClient.

• 0.2.0: timeout option supported.
• 0.2.6: initialize option and callbacks supported.
• 0.2.7: whereIn method supported.

ORM

There should be a major change for ORM. 0.2x ORM constructor need to pass the npdynamodb instance instead of pure dynamodb instance.

• 0.2.7: Supported to parse whereIn results.
