database-types

A type generator for Postgres.

Example usage

Generating Flow types

export DATABASE_TYPES_DATABASE_CONNECTION_URI=postgres://postgres:password@127.0.0.1/test
export DATABASE_TYPES_COLUMN_FILTER="return !['raster_overviews', 'raster_columns', 'geometry_columns', 'geography_columns', 'spatial_ref_sys'].includes(tableName)"
export DATABASE_TYPES_DIALECT=flow

database-types generate > ./types.js

This generates file containing Flow type declartions in the following format:

export type ReservationSeatRecordType = {|
  +createdAt: string,
  +id: number,
  +reservationId: number,
  +seatId: number
|};

export type TicketTypeRecordType = {|
  +cinemaId: number,
  +id: number,
  +name: string,
  +nid: string,
  +policy: string | null
|};

// ...

CLI

npm install database-types -g

Options:
  --help                        Show help                              [boolean]
  --column-filter               Function used to filter columns. Function is
                                constructed using `new Function`. Function
                                receives table name as the first parameter and
                                column name as the second parameter (parameter
                                names are "tableName" and "columnName").[string]
  --property-name-formatter     Function used to format property name. Function
                                is constructed using `new Function`. Function
                                receives column name as the first parameter
                                (parameter name is "columnName"). The default
                                behaviour is to (lower) camelCase the column
                                name.                                   [string]
  --type-name-formatter         Function used to format type name. Function is
                                constructed using `new Function`. Function
                                receives table name as the first parameter
                                (parameter name is "tableName"). The default
                                behaviour is to (upper) CamelCase the table name
                                and suffix it with "RecordType".        [string]
