Promised WebSQL

A lightweight wrapper for WebSQL implementations to make them support promises.

Tested with:
- Chrome's WebSQL
- Expo SDK's expo-sqlite
- React Native's react-native-sqlite-storage

While not tested, it should work with Cordova's cordova-sqlite-storage and any WebSQL implementation
in accordance with this standard.

Why

I know WebSQL is deprecated and will not be developed, but it is still used widely and remains the only
SQL option on React Native/Cordova projects. I had to use SQL in one and wanted to write it with promises,
that is why I created this package.

Installation

npm install promised-websql --save or yarn add promised-websql.

Usage

javascript

import * as SQLite from 'expo-sqlite';

import PromisedWebSQL from 'promised-websql';



// Setup

const db = SQLite.openDatabase('test.db');

const promised_db = PromisedWebSQL(db);



// Usage

promised_db.sql(

  'CREATE TABLE AWESOME_PACKAGES(' +

  'ID INT PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, ' +

  'NAME TEXT NOT NULL, ' +

  'URL TEXT NOT NULL);')

  .then(([transaction, result]) => {

    console.log('Table created!');

  })

  .catch((error) => {

    console.error(error);

  });





API Reference

####

PromisedWebSQL(db)



- Arguments:

    -

db: object

 - a DB-like object that conforms to the WebSQL specification,

    most notably, has a

#transaction

 function.

- Returns:

    -

{sql: function, sqls: function}

 - an object that exposes the api, listed below

 

####

PromisedWebSQL#sql(sql_query, paramerters?)





Execute an SQL query on the database, optionally interpolate with parameters.

- Arguments:

    -

sql_query: string

 - an SQL query to execute

    -

parameters?: Array

 - an optional array of parameters to

    interpolate

? symbols in sql_query

.

- Returns:

    -

Promise<[transaction: SQLTransaction, result: ResultSet]>

 - 

    A promise which resolves when the transaction is executed. Resolves with an array,

    where the first element is the transaction itself and the second is the response from

    the database api. If rejected, rejects with an array where the first element is the 

    transaction itself, and the second is the error returned from the database api.

    

####

PromisedWebSQL#sqls(sql_queries)





Execute multiple SQL queries on the database, optionally interpolate with parameters.

- Arguments:

    -

sql_queries: Array>

 - an array of arrays. Each array represents an SQL query, 

    where the first string is the SQL query itself, the rest is parameters, if there are any.

- Returns:

    -

Promise>

 - 

    A promise which resolves when all the transactions are executed. Resolves with an array of arrays,

    where each array represents a transaction (in the same order as passed in

#sqls`). The first item is the
transaction itself, the second one is the result.
