A Seneca.js data storage plugin
This module is a plugin for Seneca.js. It provides a storage engine that uses JSON files to persist data. This module is not appropriate for production usage, it is intended for very low workloads, and as a example of a storage plugin code base.
For a gentle introduction to Seneca itself, see the senecajs.org site.
Supports Seneca versions 1.x - 3.x
All Seneca data store supported functionality is implemented in seneca-store-test as a test suite. The tests represent the store functionality specifications.
To install, simply use npm. Remember you will need to install Seneca.js separately.
npm install seneca
npm install seneca-jsonfile-storeYou don't use this module directly. It provides an underlying data storage engine for the Seneca entity API:
var entity = seneca.make$('typename')
entity.someproperty = "something"
entity.anotherproperty = 100
entity.save$(function (err, entity) { ... })
entity.load$({ id: ... }, function (err, entity) { ... })
entity.list$({ property: ... }, function (err, entity) { ... })
entity.remove$({ id: ... }, function (err, entity) { ... })var seneca = require('seneca')()
seneca.use('jsonfile-store', {
folder:'/path/to/my-db-folder'
})
.use('entity')
var apple = seneca.make$('fruit')
apple.name = 'Pink Lady'
apple.price = 0.99
apple.save$(function (err, apple) {
console.log("apple.id = " + apple.id )
})The standard Seneca query format is supported:
-
.list$({f1:v1, f2:v2, ...})implies pseudo-queryf1==v1 AND f2==v2, .... -
.list$({f1:v1,...}, {sort$:{field1:1}})means sort by f1, ascending. -
.list$({f1:v1,...}, {sort$:{field1:-1}})means sort by f1, descending. -
.list$({f1:v1,...}, {limit$:10})means only return 10 results. -
.list$({f1:v1,...}, {skip$:5})means skip the first 5. -
.list$({f1:v1,...}, {fields$:['fd1','f2']})means only return the listed fields.
Note: you can use sort$, limit$, skip$ and fields$ together.
