RavenDB client for Node.js

Installation

npm install --save ravendb

Getting started

Require DocumentStore class from package

const {DocumentStore} = require('ravendb');

or

const DocumentStore = require('ravendb').default;

or (using ES6 / Typescript imports)

import DocumentStore from 'ravendb';

Initialize document store (this can be kept as a global object)

const store = DocumentStore.create('database url', 'default database name'); store.initialize();

Open a session

const session = store.openSession();

Call saveChanges() when you'll finish working with a session

session .load('Users/1-A') .then((user) => { user.password = PBKDF2('new password'); return session.store(user); }) .then(() => session.saveChanges()) .then(() => { // here you can finish request });

Supported asynchronous call types

You can use callbacks

session .load('Users/1-A', (user) => { user.password = PBKDF2('new password'); session.store(user, null, () => { session.saveChanges(() => { // here session is complete }); }); })

You can use promises as well

session .load('Users/1-A') .then((user) => { user.password = PBKDF2('new password'); return session.store(user); }) .then(() => session.saveChanges()) .then(() => { // here session is complete });

With co library or frameworks using it (such as AdonisJS) you can yield calls

const co = require('co'); // ... co(function * () { session = store.openSession(); let user = yield store.load('Users/1-A'); user.password = PBKDF2('new password'); yield session.store(user); yield session.saveChanges(); // here session is complete });

Also client is supporting async / await stuff

async () => { session = store.openSession(); let user = await store.load('Users/1-A'); user.password = PBKDF2('new password'); await session.store(user); await session.saveChanges(); // here session is complete })

CRUD example

Creating documents

let product = { title: 'iPhone X', price: 999.99, currency: 'USD', storage: 64, manufacturer: 'Apple', in_stock: true, last_update: new Date('2017-10-01T00:00:00') }; product = await session.store(product, 'Products/'); console.log(product.id); // will output Products/<some number>-<some letter (server node tag)> e.g. Products/1-A await session.saveChanges();

Loading documents

product = await session.load('Products/1-A'); console.log(product.title); // iPhone X console.log(product.id); // Products/1-A

Updating documents

product = await session.load('Products/1-A'); product.in_stock = false; product.last_update = new Date(); await session.store(product); await session.saveChanges(); product = await session.load('Products/1-A'); console.log(product.in_stock); // false console.log(product.last_update); // outputs current date

Deleting documents

product = await session.load('Products/1-A'); await session.delete(product); // or you can just do // await session.delete('Products/1-A'); await session.saveChanges(); product = await session.load('Products/1-A'); console.log(product); // undefined

Querying documents

Create DocumentQuery instance using query() method of session:

query = session.query({ collection: 'Products', // specify which collection you'd like to query // optionally you may specify an index name for querying // indexName: 'PopularProductsWithViewsCount' });

Apply conditions, ordering etc. Query supports chaining calls:

const {DocumentStore, QueryOperators} = require('ravendb'); // ... query .waitForNonStaleResults() .usingDefaultOperator(QueryOperators.And) .whereEquals('manufacturer', 'Apple') .whereEquals('in_stock', true) .whereBetween('last_update', new Date('2017-10-01T00:00:00'), new Date()) .orderBy('price');

Finally, you may get query results:

let documents = await query.all();

Condition value can be a string, number, boolean, null value or Date object:

type ConditionValue = string | number | boolean | Date | null;

Using ECMAScript 2015 classes as models instead of object literals

Define your model as class. Attributes should be just public properties:

class Product { constructor( id = null, title = '', price = 0, currency = 'USD', storage = 0, manufacturer = '', in_stock = false, last_update = null ) { Object.assign(this, { title, price, currency, storage, manufacturer, in_stock, last_update: last_update || new Date() }); } }

For store model just pass it's instance without specifying collection prefix (e.g. Products/). Collection name will be detected automatically by model's class name

let product = new Product( null, 'iPhone X', 999.99, 'USD', 64, 'Apple', true, new Date('2017-10-01T00:00:00') }; product = await session.store(product); console.log(product instanceof Product); // true console.log(product.id.includes('Products/')); // true await session.saveChanges();

When loading document, you need to use session.load() second options param. Pass class constructor as documentType option:

let product = await session.load('Products/1-A', {documentType: Product}); console.log(product instanceof Product); // true console.log(product.id); // Products/1-A

When querying documents, pass class constructor to documentType option of session.query({ ... }):

let products = await session.query({ collection: 'Products', documentType: Product }).all(); products.forEach((product) => { console.log(product instanceof Product); // true console.log(product.id.includes('Products/')); // true });

Also you can set global models class resolver (something like class autoloader in PHP). It should be a callback function accepting a name of the model class and returning its constructor:

store.conventions.addDocumentInfoResolver({ resolveConstructor: (className) => require(`./relative/path/to/models/${className}`)[className] }); session = store.openSession(); let product = await session.load('Products/1-A'); console.log(product instanceof Product); // true console.log(product.id); // Products/1-A let products = await session.query({ collection: 'Products' }).all(); products.forEach((product) => { console.log(product instanceof Product); // true console.log(product.id.includes('Products/')); // true });

Usage with TypeScript

All datatype definitions you can find in lib/ravendb-node.d.ts. An example of CRUD operations and querying documents you may find below:

// file models/Product.ts export class Product { constructor( public id: string = null, public title: string = '', public price: number = 0, public currency: string = 'USD', public storage: number = 0, public manufacturer: string = '', public in_stock: boolean = false, public last_update: Date = null ) {} } export default Product; // file app.ts import {DocumentStore, IDocumentStore, IDocumentSession, IDocumentQuery, DocumentConstructor, QueryOperators} from 'ravendb'; const store: IDocumentStore = DocumentStore.create('database url', 'database name'); let session: IDocumentSession; store.initialize(); store.conventions.addDocumentInfoResolver({ resolveConstructor: (typeName: string): DocumentConstructor => <DocumentConstructor>require(`./models/${typeName}`)[typeName] }); (async (): Promise<void> => { let product: Product = new Product( null, 'iPhone X', 999.99, 'USD', 64, 'Apple', true, new Date('2017-10-01T00:00:00') ); product = await session.store<Product>(product); console.log(product instanceof Product); // true console.log(product.id.includes('Products/')); // true await session.saveChanges(); product = await session.load<Product>('Products/1-A'); console.log(product instanceof Product); // true console.log(product.id); // Products/1-A let products: Product[] = await session .query<Product>({ collection: 'Products' }) .waitForNonStaleResults() .usingDefaultOperator(QueryOperators.And) .whereEquals<string>('manufacturer', 'Apple') .whereEquals<boolean>('in_stock', true) .whereBetween<Date>('last_update', new Date('2017-10-01T00:00:00'), new Date()) .whereGreaterThanOrEqual<number>('storage', 64) .all(); products.forEach((product: Product): void => { console.log(product instanceof Product); // true console.log(product.id.includes('Products/')); // true }); })();

Working with secured server

Fill auth options object. Pass contents of the pem/pfx certificate, specify its type and (optionally) passphrase:

const {DocumentStore, Certificate} = require('ravendb'); const certificate = ` -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- ... -----END CERTIFICATE----- -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- ... -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- `; let authOptions = { certificate: certificate, type: Certificate.Pem, password: 'my passphrase' // optional  };

Pfx certificates content should be passed as Buffer object:

const {DocumentStore, Certificate} = require('ravendb'); const fs = require('fs'); const certificate = './cert.pfx'; let authOptions = { certificate: fs.readFileSync(certificate), type: Certificate.Pfx, password: 'my passphrase' // optional  };

Pass auth options as third argument of DocumentStore.create:

let store = DocumentStore.create( 'database url', 'default database name', authOptions ); store.initialize();

Auth exceptions

if no auth options was provided and you're trying to work with secured server, an NotSupportedException will be thrown during store initialization
if certificate is invalid or doesn't have permissions for specific operations, an AuthorizationException will be thrown during working with sessions/querying/sending operations

Advanced features

Attachments support

You can attach binary files to documents.

For attach a file, use PutAttachmentOperation. Pass document id, attachment name (it can be just a file name), content type and file contents as an Buffer object:

const {DocumentStore, PutAttachmentOperation} = require('ravendb'); const path = require('path'); const fs = require('fs'); // ... const fileName = './iphone-x.png'; await store.operations.send( new PutAttachmentOperation( 'Products/1-A', path.basename(fileName), fs.readFileSync(fileName), 'image/png' ) );

For read an attachment, use GetAttachmentOperation. Pass document id and attachment name. File contents will be stored as an Buffer object inside stream property of response:

const {DocumentStore, PutAttachmentOperation, AttachmentTypes} = require('ravendb'); const fs = require('fs'); // ... const fileName = 'iphone-x.png'; let attachmentResult = await store.operations.send( new GetAttachmentOperation( 'Products/1-A', fileName, AttachmentTypes.Document ) ); fs.writeFileSync(`./${fileName}`, attachmentResult.stream);

For delete an attachment, use DeleteAttachmentOperation. Pass document id and attachment name.

const {DocumentStore, DeletAttachmentOperation} = require('ravendb'); // ... const fileName = 'iphone-x.png'; await store.operations.send( new DeleteAttachmentOperation( 'Products/1-A', fileName ) );

Custom document id property

By default document id is stored onto id property of document. But you can define which name of id property should be for specific document types.

Define custom document id property name resolver as callback function. It accepts document type and should return id property name:

// models.item.js class Item { constructor(Id = null, Title = "", Options = []) { this.Id = Id; this.Title = Title; this.Options = Options; } } exports.Item = Item; // index.js const {DocumentStore} = require('ravendb'); const {Item} = require('./models/item'); const resolveIdProperty = (typeName) => { switch (typeName) { case Item.name: return 'Id'; // ...  } };

Pass this callback to resolveIdProperty option of conventions.addDocumentInfoResolver:

store.conventions.addDocumentInfoResolver({ resolveIdProperty });

Now client will read/fill Id property with document id while doing CRUD operations:

let session = store.openSession(); await session.store(new Item(null, 'First Item', [1, 2, 3])); await session.saveChanges(); console.log(item.Id); // Items/1-A session = store.openSession(); let item = await session.load('Items/1-A'); console.log(item.Id); // Items/1-A console.log(item.Title); // First Item console.log(item.Options); // [1, 2, 3]

Custom attributes serializer

You can define custom serializers if you need to implement your own logic for convert attributes names/values for specific document types.

Define your serializer as object with onSerialized / onUnserialized methods:

const serializer = { onSerialized: (serialized) => { }, onUnserialized: (serialized) => { } };

Where serialized attribute has the following structure:

interface ISerialized<T extends Object = IRavenObject> { source: object | T; target?: object | T; originalAttribute: string; serializedAttribute: string; originalValue: any; serializedValue: any; attributePath: string; metadata?: object; nestedObjectTypes?: IRavenObject<DocumentConstructor>; }

Store target attribute name/value into the serializedAttribute/serializedValue properties of serialized parameter:

function capitalize(string) { return string.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + string.substring(1); } function uncapitalize(string) { return string.charAt(0).toLowerCase() + string.substring(1); } const serializer = { onSerialized: (serialized) => { switch (serialized.metadata['Raven-Node-Type']) { case Item.name: serialized.serializedAttribute = uncapitalize(serialized.originalAttribute); if ('Items' === serialized.originalAttribute) { serialized.serializedValue = serialized.originalValue.join(","); } break; // ...  } }, onUnserialized: (serialized) => { switch (serialized.metadata['Raven-Node-Type']) { case Item.name: serialized.serializedAttribute = capitalize(serialized.originalAttribute); if ('items' === serialized.originalAttribute) { serialized.serializedValue = serialized.originalValue.split(",").map(parseInt); } break; // ...  } } };

Pass your serializer object to conventions.addAttributeSerializer:

const {DocumentStore, GetDocumentCommand} = require('ravendb'); store.conventions.addAttributeSerializer(serializer); let sesssion = store.openSession(); await session.store(new Item(null, 'First Item', [1, 2, 3])); await session.saveChanges(); session = store.openSession(); let item = await session.load('Items/1-A'); console.log(item.Id); // Items/1-A console.log(item.Title); // First Item console.log(item.Options); // [1, 2, 3] let response = await store.getRequestExecutor().execute(new GetDocumentCommand('Items/1-A')); let rawDocument = response.Results[0]; console.log(rawDocument['@metadata']['@id']); // Items/1-A console.log(rawDocument.title); // First Item console.log(rawDocument.options); // "1,2,3"
