Breeze Data Management for JavaScript Clients
Breeze is a library that helps you manage data in rich client applications. If you store data in a database, query and save those data as complex object graphs, and share these graphs across multiple screens of your JavaScript client, Breeze is for you.
Client-side querying, caching, dynamic object graphs, change tracking and notification, model validation, batch save, offline … all part of rich data management with Breeze. Breeze clients communicate with any remote service that speaks HTTP and JSON.
Breeze lets you develop applications using the same powerful idioms on the client and server. You can
- query with a rich query syntax
- navigate the graph of related entities
- track changes as you add/change/delete entities
- perform client-side validation
- save all changes in a single transaction
- use the same entity model on the server and client
Install from npm
npm install breeze-client
or
npm install breeze-client@cjs
The version tagged
cjs uses an older Angular Package Format, and includes ES5 and ES2015 versions, as well as UMD bundles.
The version tagged
latest (and
mjs) uses updated
Angular Package Format and ES2022 .mjs modules. It has
esm2022 and
fesm2022 folders, but no UMD
bundles folder.
If you want the latest module format, and don't care about UMD bundles, use
breeze-client.
If you need UMD bundles, or need backward compatibility with ES5 or ES2015, use
breeze-client@cjs.
