What is moltyjs?

A tiny ODM for MongoDB with multy tenancy support and Elasticsearch integration.

MoltyJS allow you all what you expect from an object database modeling library plus multy tenancy support and Elasticsearch integration behind the scene.

NOTE: THIS LIBRARY IS NOT SUITABLE FOR A PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT, IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCCTIONS AND MIGTH BE BREAKING CHANGES FROM ONE COMMIT TO ANOTHER. PLEASE, USE IT CAREFULLY AND CHECK THE DOCUMENTATION AND THE CHANGELOG IN EACH VERSION RELEASE. THANK YOU!

Install

$ npm install moltyjs --save

Usage

const { connect } = require('moltys');

// ES2015
import { connect } from ('moltyjs');

Connect to a DB

To connect to a database use the "connect()" function passing trough 'options' payload all the settings required:

Molty.connect(options)

const { connect } = require('moltys');

const options = {
  connection: {
    engine: 'mongodb', // By default
    uri: 'mongodb://localhost:27017/test',
    max: 100, // By default
    min: 1, // By default
  },
  tenants: {
    noListener: false, // By default
    returnNonCachedInstance: false, // By default
  },
  elasticSearch: {
    host: 'localhost:9200',
  },
};

const connection = connect(options);

"connect()" will return a connection instance which will allow you to perform all the actions availables on the DB.

Options settings allowed are:

  • connection: Object to set up the connection parameters to the MongoDB instance and the connection pool settings:
    • engine: {String} By default 'mongodb', and for the time being MoltyJS only supports Mongo Databases.
    • uri: {String} Mongo connection URI, to get more information about this take a look to the official documentation
    • max: {Number} By default 100, set the maximum connection simultaneasly to the DB.
    • min: {Number} Bu default 1, set the minimum connection simultaneasly to the DB.
  • tenants: Object to set up the db instance configuration
    • noListener: {Boolean} By default false, do not make the db an event listener to the original connection. Keep it false if you are using MoltyJS in a multy tenancy architecture since MongoDB propagate all the events throug all the db instances oppened.
    • returnNonCachedInstance: {Boolean} By default false, control if you want to return a cached instance or have a new one created
  • elasticSearch: Object to set up the connection parameter to the Elasticsearch instance
    • host: {String} Host of the Elasticsearch instance

Drop a DB

.dropDatabase(database)

const res = await connection.dropDatabase('test');
// true

Create a new Schema

Molty Schema are based on Mongoose Schema structure with some changes on the declaration of the inherit schema options. I even keep some field options name to make the Molty integration as easier as posible in those project are currently running Mongoose.

To create a new Schema use the "Schema()" constructor passing the schema and the options:

new Schema(schema, options)

const { Schema } = require('moltys');

const newSchema = Schema(
  {
    email: {
      type: String,
      required: true,
      unique: true,
      maxlength: 100,
    },
    password: {
      type: Number,
      required: true,
    },
    name: {
      type: String,
      default: '',
    },
    age: {
      type: Number,
    },
    tests: {
      type: [Schema.types().ObjectId],
      ref: 'ReferenceSchema',
    },
  },
  {
    timestamps: true,
    inheritOptions: {
      discriminatorKey: '__kind',
    },
  },
);

The schema field properties alowed are:

  • type: Is the only one which is mandatory and could be a String, Number, Boolean, Buffer, Date, Array, Object, ObjectId or an array [] of any of them.
  • ref: Optional and should be the Model name associated to the collection you want to refeer. The type of areference field must be ObjectId or [ObjectId].
  • required: Optional and only allow Boolean values.
  • unique: Optional and only allow Boolean values.
  • default: Optional, only allows values of the same type which is set on the type property. You also can assigna a function to it which return a value with the correct type.
  • match: Optional, allows either RegExp or String to validate the value of the field.
  • enum: Optional, and must be an array of values of the same type is set on type.
  • min: Optional, minimum number allowed.
  • max: Optional, maximum number allowed.
  • maxlength: Optional, maximum length of a String
  • validate: Optional, function to perform a custom validation. Document is passing through the function arg:
const { Schema } = require('moltys');

const otherSchema = Schema({
  job: {
    type: String,
    validate: async doc => {
      if (doc.field === 'exist') return true;

      return false;
    },
  },
});

And the schema options allowed are:

  • timestamps: Optional, set automatically in the documents saved or updated in the DB the fields: createdAt and updatedAt
  • inheritOptions: Optional, used for inherit from a parent Schema
    • discriminatorKey: Required once "inheritOptions" is set
    • merge: Optional, must be an array with a combination of these three values ['methods', 'preHooks', 'postHooks'], depending of what you want to merge from the parent Schema.
  • elasticSearchIndexes: Optional, used for set the Schema field will be indexed by the Elasticsearch server and in which type: 'text', 'keyword', 'date', 'long', 'double', 'boolean', 'ip', 'object', 'nested'
const { Schema } = require('moltys');

const schemaOptions = {
  timestamps: true,
  inheritOptions: {
    discriminatorKey: 'kind',
  },
  elasticSearchIndexes: {
    version: {
      type: 'text',
    },
  },
};

const elasticSearchSchema = Schema(
  {
    version: {
      type: String,
    },
    counter: {
      type: Number,
    },
  },
  schemaOptions,
);

Static methods

You can extend the functionality of Document class adding static method to work with the documents instances:

newSchema.methods.comparePassword = async function(candidatePassword) {
  const user = this._data;
  return candidatePassword === user.password;
};

const TestModel = new Model(newSchema, 'TestModel');

newDoc = TestModel.new({
  email: 'test@moltyjs.com',
  password: '1321321',
  name: 'Michael Scott',
});

// You can call static methods from the document itself
newDoc.comparePassword('000000'); // false

Hooks middleware

All hooks have binded the connection instance and the tenant name beside the document or the query depending of the hook.

Document middleware is supported for the following functions.
  • insertOne
  • insertMany

In document middleware functions, this refers to the document or to the array of documents.

Examples:

// Pre hooks on insertOne
newSchema.pre('insertOne', function(connection, tenant, next) {
  // this refers to the document
  console.log(this);
  return next();
});

// Post hooks on insertOne
newSchema.post('insertOne', function(connection, tenant, next) {
  // From any pre or post hook of Document middleware
  // you can call to any of the static methos associated
  // to the docuemnt
  this.staticMethod();
  return next();
});

// Pre hooks on insertMany
newSchema.pre('insertMany', function(connection, tenant, next) {
  // this refers to the array os documents since the method that
  // trigger this hook is 'insertMany'
  console.log(this); // [{Document}, {Document}]
  return next();
});

// Post hooks on insertMany
newSchema.post('insertMany', async function(connection, tenant, next) {
  // We can perform any action against the DB with the
  // connection instance and the tenant name
  const newDoc = TestModel.new({
    email: 'test@moltyjs.com',
    password: 'ababababa',
    name: 'Pam Beesley',
  });
  const res = await connection.insertOne('tenant_test', newDoc);
  return next();
});
Query middleware is supported for the following functions.
  • updateOne
  • updateMany
  • delete

In query middleware functions, this refers to the query.

Examples:

// Pre hooks on update
newSchema.pre('updateOne', function(connection, tenant, next) {
  // this refers to the update query
  console.log(this); // Ex. { $set: {jobTitle: 'Test' }} => update query
  return next();
});

// Post hooks on delete
newSchema.post('delete', async function(connection, tenant, next) {
  console.log(this); // Ex. {_id: 5a57b7e35f142544ec0e68dc} => filter query
  return next();
});

Create a new Model

Once we have created our schema we need to register as a model so we can start to create, find, updete and delete documents. To do this you must provide the a proper schema and a model name. The model name will be the collection name on the DB so use the criteria you want since Molty does not make any accomodation on them like auto plurilize.

new Model(schema, discriminatorName)

const { Model } = require('moltys');

const TestModel = new Model(newSchema, 'TestModel');

Create a Model discriminator

You can also create models which inherits from other models and you can decide in which fashion you wan to do it. You have to make sure that the discriminator key of the child models are the same than the parents and also set what you want to merge from the parent model.

.discriminator(schema, discriminatorName)

const { Schema } = require('moltys');

const newSchemaDiscriminator = Schema(
  {
    job: {
      type: String,
      default: '',
    },
    position: {
      type: String,
    },
  },
  {
    timestamps: true,
    inheritOptions: {
      discriminatorKey: '__kind',
      merge: ['methods', 'preHooks', 'postHooks'],
    },
  },
);

TestModelDiscriminator = TestModel.discriminator(
  newSchemaDiscriminator,
  'TestModelDiscriminator',
);

The merge option must be an array with the element you want to merge from the parent model, teh options are:

  • methods: which corresponds to the static methods.
  • preHooks: which corresponds to the hooks that are executed before performing actions on the DB
  • postHooks: which corresponds to the hooks that are executed after performing actions on the DB

Create a new document

Once we have already set up the Schema and registered the Model with it we can start creating document from that Model as follow:

.new(payload) {Promise}

const { Model } = require('moltys');

const TestModel = new Model(newSchema, 'TestModel');

newDoc = await TestModel.new(
  {
    email: 'test@moltyjs.com',
    password: '1321321',
    name: 'Michael Scott',
  },
); // Document // Error

Referencing Documents

MoltyJS support referencing document that later on you wil be able to populate on find queries. To make a refference to another Model just add a new field on the Schema with the type ObjectId and the "ref" propertie with the Model name referenciated.

const { Schema } = require('moltys');

const referenceSchema = new Schema(
  {
    email: {
      type: String,
      required: true,
      unique: true,
      maxlength: 100,
    },
    password: {
      type: String,
      required: true,
      unique: true,
      maxlength: 150,
      default: () => crypto.randomBytes(20).toString('hex'),
    },
    accountExpiration: {
      type: Date,
      default: () =>
        moment()
          .add(24, 'hours')
          .utc()
          .format(),
    },
    status: {
      type: String,
      required: true,
      enum: ['pending', 'accepted', 'error'],
      default: 'pending',
    },
    model: {
      type: Schema.types().ObjectId,
      ref: 'TestModel',
    },
  },
  {
    timestamps: true,
  },
);

You can use an array of ObjectId also as type ([ObjectId]). Noticed that to get the proper ObjectId type you must tu get it from the Schema.types() method object is returned.
