# DAL
**Data Access Layer**
DAL is a proxy layer for SQL databases with a MongoDB inspired query interface.
It can be used as a Go or NodeJS package (requires compiler) to create your own proxy and apply custom middlewares.
**Note:** This project is still in early alpha. You need to build it yourself and use at your own risk.
**Note:** At the time only SQLite is implemented. However, other drivers might work.
**Use cases**
- For IOT networks when MySQL/PG are too heavy.
- If you need a layer between your application and the database (i.e. for caching).
- If you want a MongoDB-like query interface for your SQL.
## Usage
### Server
The most efficient way to use DAL is to run the server as a standalone service.
Build:
```bash
go build -o server
```
Run:
```bash
export SQLITE_DIRECTORY=/opt/data
./server
2024/08/21 22:01:54 Starting server on port 8118
2024/08/21 22:01:54 Using directory: /opt/data
```
### Client
Install:
```bash
pnpm add git+git@github.com:nesterow/dal.git
```
### Query Interface
| Method | Description | SQL |
| ---------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| In(table: string) | Select table | `SELECT * FROM table` |
| Find(filter: object) | Filter rows | `SELECT * FROM table WHERE filter` |
| Fields(fields: string[]) | Select fields | `SELECT fields, FROM table` |
| Sort(sort: string) | Sort rows | `SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY sort` |
| Limit(limit: number) | Limit rows | `SELECT * FROM table LIMIT limit` |
| Offset(offset: number) | Offset rows | `SELECT * FROM table OFFSET offset` |
| Join({ $for: "table_2", $do: { "t.a": "b" } }) | Join tables | `SELECT * FROM table t JOIN table_2 ON t.a = b` |
| Insert({name: "Julian"}, {name: "Bob"}) | Insert row | `INSERT INTO table (name,) VALUES ('Julian', 'Bob')` |
| Set({name: "Julian"}) | Update row (Find(filter).Set({})) | `UPDATE table SET name = 'Julian' WHERE filter` |
| Delete() | Delete row (Find(filter).Delete()) | `DELETE FROM table WHERE filter` |
| As(DTO) | Map rows to a DTO | `SELECT * FROM table` |
| Rows() | Get rows iterator | `SELECT * FROM table` |
| Exec() | Execute query (update, insert, delete) | `SQL RESULT` |
| Query() | Query database | DTO array |
| Tx() | Run in trasaction | |
### Filters
| Filter | Description | SQL |
| --------------------------- | ---------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| {id: 1, num: 2} | Equals, default filter | `WHERE id = 1 AND num = 2` |
| {id: { $eq: 1 }} | Equals, explicit | `WHERE id = 1` |
| {id: { $gt: 1 }} | Greater than | `WHERE id > 1` |
| {id: { $gte: 1 }} | Greater than or equal | `WHERE id >= 1` |
| {id: { $lt: 1 }} | Less than | `WHERE id < 1` |
| {id: { $lte: 1 }} | Less than or equal | `WHERE id <= 1` |
| {id: { $ne: 1 }} | Not equal | `WHERE id != 1` |
| {id: { $in: [1, 2] }} | In | `WHERE id IN (1, 2)` |
| {id: { $nin: [1, 2] }} | Not in | `WHERE id NOT IN (1, 2)` |
| {id: { $like: "a" }} | Like | `WHERE id LIKE '%a%'` |
| {id: { $nlike: "a" }} | Not like | `WHERE id NOT LIKE '%a%'` |
| {id: { $between: [1, 2] }} | Between | `WHERE id BETWEEN 1 AND 2` |
| {id: { $nbetween: [1, 2] }} | Not between | `WHERE id NOT BETWEEN 1 AND 2` |
| {id: { $glob: "\*son" }} | Glob | `WHERE id GLOB '*son'` |
### Example
```typescript
import { DAL } from "@nesterow/dal";
class UserDTO {
id: number = 0;
name: string = "";
data: string = "";
age: number | undefined;
}
const db = new DAL({
database: "test.sqlite",
url: "http://localhost:8111",
});
const rows = db
.In("test t")
.Find({
name: { $glob: "*son" },
age: { $gte: 18 },
}) // SELECT * FROM test t WHERE name GLOB '*son' AND age >= 18
.As(UserDTO) // Map every row to DTO
.Rows(); // Get iterator
for await (const row of rows) {
console.log(row); // Jason, Jackson
}
```
