Description

Knexjs module for Nest framework (node.js) 😻

Installation

First install the module via yarn or npm or pnpm and do not forget to install the driver package as well:

`
or

`bash
$ yarn add nest-knexjs knex mysql # for mysql/mariadb
$ yarn add nest-knexjs knex pg # for postgresql
$ yarn add nest-knexjs knex sqlite # for sqlite
$ yarn add nest-knexjs knex oracledb # for oracledb
`
or

`bash
$ pnpm add nest-knexjs knex mysql # for mysql/mariadb

Usage

$3

KnexModule is the primary entry point for this package and can be used synchronously

`typescript
@Module({
imports: [
KnexModule.forRoot({
config: {
client: 'mysql',
version: '5.7',
connection: {
host: '127.0.0.1',
user: 'root',
password: 'root',
database: 'test',
},
},
}),
],
})
`
or asynchronously

`typescript
@Module({
imports: [
KnexModule.forRootAsync({
useFactory: () => ({
config: {
client: 'mysql',
version: '5.7',
connection: {
host: '127.0.0.1',
user: 'root',
password: 'root',
database: 'test',
},
},
}),
}),
],
})
`

Example of use

UsersService:

`typescript
import { Injectable } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Knex } from 'knex';
import { InjectConnection } from 'nest-knexjs';

@Injectable()
export class UsersService {
constructor(@InjectConnection() private readonly knex: Knex) {}

async findAll() {
const users = await this.knex.table('users');
return { users };
}
}
`

UsersController:

`typescript
import { Controller, Get } from '@nestjs/common';
import { UsersService } from './users.service';

@Controller()
export class UsersController {
constructor(private readonly usersService: UsersService) {}

@Get()
async getAllUsers() {
return await this.usersService.findAll();
}
}
`

Multi Connections Database

`typescript
@Module({
imports: [
KnexModule.forRootAsync(
{
useFactory: () => ({
config: {
client: 'mysql',
version: '5.7',
useNullAsDefault: true,
connection: {
host: '127.0.0.1',
user: 'root',
port: 3306,
password: 'root',
database: 'test1',
},
pool: {
min: 2,
max: 10,
},
},
}),
},
'db1Connection',
),
KnexModule.forRootAsync(
{
useFactory: () => ({
config: {
client: 'mysql',
version: '5.7',
useNullAsDefault: true,
connection: {
host: '127.0.0.1',
user: 'root',
port: 3307,
password: 'root',
database: 'test2',
},
pool: {
min: 2,
max: 10,
},
},
}),
},
'db2Connection',
),
],
controllers: [],
providers: [],
})
export class AppModule {}
`

Usage example with Multi Connection

PostService:

`typescript
@Injectable()
export class PostService {
constructor(
@InjectConnection('db2Connection')
private knexConnection: Knex,
) {}

async create(createPostDto: CreatePostDto) {
try {
const post = await this.knexConnection.table('posts').insert({
title: createPostDto.title,
description: createPostDto.description,
});

return post;
} catch (err) {
throw new HttpException(err, HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST);
}
}

async findAll() {
const posts = await this.knexConnection.table('posts');
return { posts };
}
}
`

UsersService:

`typescript
@Injectable()
export class UsersService {
constructor(
@InjectConnection('db1Connection')
private knexConnection: Knex,
) {}

async findAll() {
const users = await this.knexConnection.table('users');
return { users };
}

async create(createUserDto: CreateUserDto) {
try {
const users = await this.knexConnection.table('users').insert({
firstName: createUserDto.firstName,
lastName: createUserDto.lastName,
});

return { users };
} catch (err) {
throw new HttpException(err, HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST);
}
}
}
`


In knexfile.js update with your database configuration settings:

`javascript
module.exports = {
development: {
client: 'mysql',
version: '5.7',
connection: {
name: 'db1Connection',
host: '127.0.0.1',
user: 'root',
port: 3306,
password: 'root',
database: 'test1',
},
migrations: {
directory: './migrations/users',
tableName: '[:name_file_migrations_users]',
},
},
developmentTwo: {
client: 'mysql',
version: '5.7',
connection: {
name: 'db2Connection',
host: '127.0.0.1',
user: 'root',
port: 3307,
password: 'root',
database: 'test2',
},
migrations: {
directory: './migrations/posts',
tableName: '[:name_file_migrations_posts]',
},
},
};
`

Run Migrations:

`bash
$ npx knex migrate:latest --env development

$ npx knex migrate:latest --env developmentTwo
`

Create Migrations

`bash
$ npx knex init
$ npx knex migrate:make [name_migrations]
`

Example file migrations:

`typescript
exports.up = function(knex) {
return knex.schema
.createTable('users', function(table) {
table.increments('id');
table.string('firstName', 255).notNullable();
table.string('lastName', 255).notNullable();
})
.createTable('products', function(table) {
table.increments('id');
table.string('name', 255).notNullable();
table.decimal('price').notNullable();
});
};

exports.down = function (knex) {
return knex.schema.dropTable('products').dropTable('users');
};
`

Run Migrations

In knexfile.js update with your config settings:

`javascript
module.exports = {
development: {
client: 'mysql',
connection: {
host: '127.0.0.1',
user: 'root',
password: 'root',
database: 'test',
},
},
}
`

then we run the following command from the terminal

`bash
$ npx knex migrate:latest
`

Create Seeds

`bash
$ npx knex seed:make [name_seed]
`

Example file seeds

`javascript
exports.seed = function (knex) {
return knex('users')
.del()
.then(function () {
return knex('users').insert([
{ id: 1, firstName: 'firstName#1', lastName: 'lastName#1' },
{ id: 2, firstName: 'firstName#2', lastName: 'lastName#2' },
{ id: 3, firstName: 'firstName#3', lastName: 'lastName#3' },
]);
});
};
`

Run Seeds

`
$ npx knex seed:run
`
