airkv

AirKV is a key-value database storage library built on top of Airtable.

[!CAUTION] Note: This project was developed in my free time to learn more about creating npm packages. However, Airtable recently introduced a soft limit of 1000 API requests per month for free accounts, which can restrict the package’s functionality for high-demand use cases.

Version 0.0.1

Features

• Easy Storage: Store and retrieve key-value pairs in Airtable without needing direct Airtable API calls.
• Seamless Setup: Just provide your Airtable token and workspace ID.
• Automatic Record Handling: Automatically creates and updates records as needed.

Installation

Install AirKV using npm:

npm install airkv

Quick Start

// const {AirKV} = require("airkv");
import {AirKV} from "airkv";

const airkv = new AirKV({
        token : "..." ,
        workspaceId : "...",
        logging : true
    });

(async()=>{
    const base = await airkv.airbase("example");    
    await base.set("key1" , "value1");
    const value = await base.get("key1");
    await base.delete()
})();

Initialization

To start using AirKV, initialize it with your Airtable credentials:

import { AirKV } from 'airkv';

const airkv = new AirKV({
    token: 'airtable_api_token',
    workspaceId: 'workspace_id',
    logging: true // optional, false by default
});

Methods

airbase(name)

Creates or retrieves an Airbase instance used to store key-value pairs.

const base = await airkv.airbase('example');

get(key)

Description: Retrieves the value associated with a given key.

const value = await base.get('username');
console.log(value); // value associated with 'username' or `null` if not found

set(key , value)

Description: Stores or updates a key-value pair in the base.

await base.set('username', 'shivzee');

exists(key)

Description: Checks if a given key exists in the base.

const exists = await base.exists('username');
console.log(exists); // true or false

delete(key)

Description: Deletes a key-value pair from the base.

await base.delete('username');

Logging

Enable logging by setting the logging option to true when creating an AirKV instance. This will log interactions with the Airtable API for debugging purposes.
