Ravel DatabaseProvider for MySQL

GitHub license npm version Dependency Status npm Build Status Test Coverage

ravel-mysql-provider is a DatabaseProvider for Ravel, wrapping the powerful node mysql library. It supports connection pooling as well as Ravel's transaction system (including rollbacks).

Example usage:

Step 1: Import and instantiate the MySQLProvider

app.js

const app = new require('ravel')();
const MySQLProvider = require('ravel-mysql-provider');
app.registerProvider(MySQLProvider);
// ... other providers and parameters
app.scan('./modules');
app.scan('./resources');
// ... the rest of your Ravel app
app.start();

Step 2: Access connections via @transaction

resources/posts_resource.js

const Ravel = require('ravel');
const autoinject = Ravel.autoinject;
const Resource = Ravel.Resource;
const transaction = Resource.transaction;
 
@Resource('/post')
@autoinject('posts')
class PostsResource {
  /**
   * Retrieve a single post
   */
  @transaction('mysql')
  get(ctx) {
    // Best practice is to pass the transaction object through to a Module, where you handle the actual business logic.
    return this.posts.getPost(ctx.transaction, ctx.params.id)
    .then((posts) => {
      ctx.body = posts;
    });
  }
}

Step 3: Use connections to perform queries

modules/posts.js

const Ravel = require('ravel');
const Module = Ravel.Module;
 
@Module('posts')
class Posts {
  getPost(transaction, id) {
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
      const mysql = transaction['mysql'];
      // for more information about the mysql connection's capabilities, visit the docs: https://github.com/mysqljs/mysql
      mysql.query(
        `SELECT * from posts WHERE \`id\` = ?`,
        [id],
        (err, results) => {
          if (err) { return reject(err); }
          resolve(results);
        }
      );
    });
  }
}

Step 4: Configuration

Requiring the ravel-mysql-provider module will register a configuration parameter with Ravel which must be supplied via .ravelrc or app.set():

.ravelrc

{
  "mysql options": {
    "host": "localhost",
    "port": 3306,
    "user": "root",
    "password": "a password",
    "database": "mydatabase"
  }
}

All options for a mysql connection are supported, and are documented here.

Additional Notes

Multiple Simultaneous Providers

ravel-mysql-provider also supports multiple simultaneous pools for different mysql databases, as long as you name them:

app.js

const app = new require('ravel')();
const MySQLProvider = require('ravel-mysql-provider');
app.registerProvider(app, 'first mysql');
app.registerProvider(app, 'second mysql');
// ... other providers and parameters
app.start();

.ravelrc

{
  "first mysql options": {
    "host": "localhost",
    "port": 3306,
    "user": "root",
    "password": "a password",
    "database": "myfirstdatabase"
  },
  "second mysql options": {
    "host": "localhost",
    "port": 3307,
    "user": "root",
    "password": "another password",
    "database": "myseconddatabase"
  }
}

resources/posts_resource.js

const Ravel = require('ravel');
const Resource = Ravel.Resource;
const transaction = Resource.transaction;
 
@Resource('/post')
class PostsResource {
  // ...
  @transaction('first mysql', 'second mysql')
  get(ctx) {
    // can use ctx.transaction['first mysql']
    // and ctx.transaction['second mysql']
  }
}
