@bryopsida/nest-couchdb

NestJS CouchDB

A CouchDB module for NestJS

Installation

$ npm i @bryopsida/nest-couchdb nano

Usage

@bryopsida/nest-couchdb uses nano as a data provider for CouchDB and the Repository pattern to handle all documents related operations.

First, let's create an Entity:

import { Entity, CouchDbEntity } from '@bryopsida/nest-couchdb'

@Entity('cats')
export class Cat extends CouchDbEntity {
  name: string
}

Where cats is the CouchDB database name.

The CouchDbEntity is a base class which has some common properties:

class CouchDbEntity {
  _id: string
  _rev: string
}

Then, we need to import CouchDbModule in our ApplicationModule:

import { Module } from '@nestjs/common'
import { CouchDbModule } from '@bryopsida/nest-couchdb'

@Module({
  imports: [
    CouchDbModule.forRoot({
      url: 'http://localhost:5984',
      username: 'couchdb',
      userpass: 'password',
      requestDefaults: { jar: true },
    }),
  ],
})
export class ApplicationModule {}

In our CatsModule we need to initiate repository for our Cat entity:

import { Module } from '@nestjs/common'
import { CouchDbModule } from '@bryopsida/nest-couchdb'
import { CatsService } from './cats.service'
import { CatsController } from './cats.controller'
import { Cat } from './cat.entity'

@Module({
  imports: [CouchDbModule.forFeature([Cat])],
  providers: [CatsService],
  controllers: [CatsController],
})
export class CatsModule {}

And here is the usage of the repository in the service:

import { DocumentListResponse } from 'nano';
import { Injectable } from '@nestjs/common';
import { InjectRepository, Repository } from '@bryopsida/nest-couchdb';
import { Cat } from './cat.entity';

@Injectable()
export class CatsService {
  constructor(
    @InjectRepository(Cat)
    private readonly catsRepository: Repository<Cat>,
  ) {}

  findAll(): Promise<DocumentListResponse<Cat> {
    return this.catsRepository.list();
  }
}

Test

$ docker-compose up -d
$ npm test
