basex-stream

basex-stream

BaseX client for nodeJS using streams and promises.

Usage

var basex = require("basex-stream");
var session = basex({
	host: "127.0.0.1",
	port: 1984,
	user: "admin",
	pass: "admin"
});

Create

Create new databases with

session.create("test");

Commands

Issue a database command with

session.command("LIST")
.spread(function (output, info) {
	console.log(output);
});

or get a streamable response by using the promise's out property

var p = session.command("LIST");
p.out.pipe(process.stdout);
p.then(function (output, info) {
	// Now that the output stream is consumed output is null
	console.log("The string was consumed, thus output is " + output);
});

Resources

Add new resources to a database with

session.store("test.txt", "Hello World!");

or pipe in a Readable stream directly

var fs = require("fs");
var input = fs.createReadStream("test.txt");

session.store("test.txt", input);

Queries

session.query("1 to 1000")
.then(function (q) {
	return q.results(function (type, data) {
		console.log(type, data.toString());
	})
	.then(function (results) {
		console.log("Found " + results.count + " results.");
	})
	.then(function () {
		q.close()
	});
})
.catch(function (error){
	console.error(error);
});
