nedb-promise

A promise wrapper for NeDB.

Installation

Install with NPM:

$ npm i --save nedb-promise

Usage

Example using ES7 async/await:

import datastore from 'nedb-promise'

async function doDatabaseStuff() {
  let DB = datastore({
     // these options are passed through to nedb.Datastore

     filename: 'my-db.json',

     autoload: true // so that we don't have to call loadDatabase()
  })

  await DB.insert([{
    num: 1, alpha: 'a'
  }, {
    num: 2, alpha: 'b'
  }])

  let document = await DB.findOne({ num: 1 })

  // use NeDB cursors:
  let documents = await DB.cfind({})
    .projection({ num: 1, _id: 0 })
    .exec()
}

doDatabaseStuff()

API

datastore(options)

Returns an object that proxies to an internal nedb.Datastore instance (options are passed through to the NeDB constructor), with promisified methods.

It also includes extension methods cfind(...), cfindOne(...), and ccount(...) that return promisified cursors, so that you may do:

let results = await myDataStore.cfind({ moo: 'goo' })
  .projection({ moo: 1, _id: 0 }) // see NeDB cursor methods
  .exec()

datastore.fromInstance(nedbInstance)

Use this method if you already have a NeDB instance that you want to wrap with the promisified methods.

Testing

Run tests with mocha (after building):

$ mocha test.js
