TypeScript SQLite Wrapper (Object Relation Mapper)

Use this package to use sqlite commands in a generic way. The package automatically creates your database, you just need to specify the create table command. You can specify the file name of the database file via your package.json or in the constructor as the last parameter.

Installation

Install this package either via npm or the TypeScript Module Manager (tsmm).

npm:

npm install tssqlite --save

TypeScript Module Manager (tsmm):

tsmm install https://github.com/JanPeter/TypeScriptSQLite.git

API

class Sqlite

$3

You need to provide either the filePath parameter in the constructor or you can use the databasePath key in your package.json like that:

{
"name": "yourpackagename",
"databasePath": "yourdatabasefile.db"
...
}

Without one of this options, the package will not be able to create your database. If you didn't provide one of this, your callback will get an Error with the message no databasePath provided.

constructor(createCmd: string, map: (row: any) => T, callback?: (error: Error) => void, filePath?: string)

* createCommand string, the create table command (I highly recommend to use CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS...)
* map function(row: any) => T, used to map the database row to your object of your class T
* row any, database row object (access with row["colname"] or row.colname)
* callback optional function, called when the database and the table is created
* error Error
* filePath optional string, location of your database file (will be created if not exists)

Example (TypeScript)

import Sqlite = require('sqlite');

class User {
constructor(public id: number, public name: string) { }
}

var database = new Sqlite('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS user (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL)',
(row) => {
return new User(row.id, row.name);
});

$3

all(callback: (error: Error, elements: T[])

* callback function will be called after execution of all function
* error Error
* elements T[], list of all objects from table

Example (TypeScript)

import Sqlite = require('sqlite');

class User {
constructor(public id: number, public name: string) { }
}

var database = new Sqlite('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS user (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL)',
(row) => {
return new User(row.id, row.name);
}, function(error: Error) {
if (error === null) {
database.all(function(error: Error, users: User[]) {
if (error === null) {
console.log(users);
} else {
console.log(error);
}
}
} else {
console.log(error);
}
});

$3

where(select: string, params: any[], callback: (error: Error, elements: T[]) => void)

* select string, sql select command
* params any[], values to be inserted in the where clause
* callback function will be called after where function is executed
* error Error
* elements T[], list of selected objects

Example (TypeScript)

import Sqlite = require('sqlite');

class User {
constructor(public id: number, public name: string) { }
}

var database = new Sqlite('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS user (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL)',
(row) => {
return new User(row.id, row.name);
}, function(error: Error) {
if (error === null) {
database.where('SELECT * FROM user WHERE name = ?', ['karl'], function(error: Error, users: User[]) {
if (error === null) {
console.log(users);
} else {
console.log(error);
}
}
} else {
console.log(error);
}
});

$3

get(select: string, params: any[], callback: (error: Error, element: T) => void)

* select string, sql select command
* params any[], values to be inserted in the where clause
* callback function will be called after where function is executed
* error Error
* element T, first selected object

Example (TypeScript)

import Sqlite = require('sqlite');

class User {
constructor(public id: number, public name: string) { }
}

var database = new Sqlite('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS user (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL)',
(row) => {
return new User(row.id, row.name);
}, function(error: Error) {
if (error === null) {
database.get('SELECT * FROM user WHERE name = ?', ['karl'], function(error: Error, user: User) {
if (error === null) {
console.log(user);
} else {
console.log(error);
}
}
} else {
console.log(error);
}
});

$3

insert(cmd: string, params: any[], callback: (error: Error) => void)

* cmd string, sql insert command
* params any[], values to be inserted
* callback function will be called after insert command is executed
* error Error

Example (TypeScript)

import Sqlite = require('sqlite');

class User {
constructor(public id: number, public name: string) { }
}

var database = new Sqlite('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS user (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL)',
(row) => {
return new User(row.id, row.name);
}, function(error: Error) {
if (error === null) {
database.insert('INSERT INTO user (name) VALUES (?)', ['karl'], function(error: Error) {
if (error === null) {
console.log('successfully inserted karl');
} else {
console.log(error);
}
}
} else {
console.log(error);
}
});

$3

delete(cmd: string, params: any[], callback: (error: Error) => void)

* cmd string, sql delete command
* params any[], values to be inserted in the where clause
* callback function will be called after delete command is executed
* error Error

Example (TypeScript)

import Sqlite = require('sqlite');

class User {
constructor(public id: number, public name: string) { }
}

var database = new Sqlite('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS user (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL)',
(row) => {
return new User(row.id, row.name);
}, function(error: Error) {
if (error === null) {
database.insert('INSERT INTO user (name) VALUES (?)', ['karl'], function(error: Error) {
if (error === null) {
database.insert('DELETE FROM user WHERE name = ?)', ['karl'], function(error: Error) {
if (error === null) {
console.log('successfully deleted karl');
} else {
console.log(error);
}
}
} else {
console.log(error);
}
}
} else {
console.log(error);
}
});

$3

You can explicitly close the database connection with this function.

close(callback?: (error: Error) => void))

* callback function will be called after database is closed
* error Error

Example (TypeScript)

import Sqlite = require('sqlite');

class User {
constructor(public id: number, public name: string) { }
}

var database = new Sqlite('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS user (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT NOT NULL)',
(row) => {
return new User(row.id, row.name);
}, function(error: Error) {
if (error === null) {
database.close(function(error: Error) {
if (error === null) {
// Any further executed functions to the database object won't work now
database.all(function(error: Error, users: User[]) {
// error object should not be null now
});
} else {
console.log(error);
}
});
} else {
console.log(error);
}
});
