<dd><p>The <code>Datastore</code> class is the main class of NeDB.</p></dd>
|
|
<dt><a href="#Persistence">Persistence</a></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>Under the hood, NeDB's persistence uses an append-only format, meaning that all
|
|
updates and deletes actually result in lines added at the end of the datafile,
|
|
for performance reasons. The database is automatically compacted (i.e. put back
|
|
in the one-line-per-document format) every time you load each database within
|
|
your application.</p>
|
|
<p>Persistence handles the compaction exposed in the Datastore [compactDatafileAsync](#Datastore+compactDatafileAsync),
|
|
[setAutocompactionInterval](#Datastore+setAutocompactionInterval).</p>
|
|
<p>Since version 3.0.0, using [Datastore.persistence](Datastore.persistence) methods manually is deprecated.</p>
|
|
<p>Compaction takes a bit of time (not too much: 130ms for 50k
|
|
records on a typical development machine) and no other operation can happen when
|
|
it does, so most projects actually don't need to use it.</p>
|
|
<p>Compaction will also immediately remove any documents whose data line has become
|
|
corrupted, assuming that the total percentage of all corrupted documents in that
|
|
database still falls below the specified <code>corruptAlertThreshold</code> option's value.</p>
|
|
<p>Durability works similarly to major databases: compaction forces the OS to
|
|
physically flush data to disk, while appends to the data file do not (the OS is
|
|
responsible for flushing the data). That guarantees that a server crash can
|
|
never cause complete data loss, while preserving performance. The worst that can
|
|
happen is a crash between two syncs, causing a loss of all data between the two
|
|
syncs. Usually syncs are 30 seconds appart so that's at most 30 seconds of
|
|
data. <a href="http://oldblog.antirez.com/post/redis-persistence-demystified.html">This post by Antirez on Redis persistence</a>
|
|
explains this in more details, NeDB being very close to Redis AOF persistence
|
|
with <code>appendfsync</code> option set to <code>no</code>.</p></dd>

<dt><a href="#query">query</a> : <code>Object.<string, *></code></dt>
|

<dd><p>Nedb query.</p>
|
|
<p>Each key of a query references a field name, which can use the dot-notation to reference subfields inside nested
|
|
documents, arrays, arrays of subdocuments and to match a specific element of an array.</p>
|
|
<p>Each value of a query can be one of the following:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><code>string</code>: matches all documents which have this string as value for the referenced field name</li>
|
|
<li><code>number</code>: matches all documents which have this number as value for the referenced field name</li>
|
|
<li><code>Regexp</code>: matches all documents which have a value that matches the given <code>Regexp</code> for the referenced field name</li>
|
|
<li><code>object</code>: matches all documents which have this object as deep-value for the referenced field name</li>
|
|
<li>Comparison operators: the syntax is <code>{ field: { $op: value } }</code> where <code>$op</code> is any comparison operator:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><code>$lt</code>, <code>$lte</code>: less than, less than or equal</li>
|
|
<li><code>$gt</code>, <code>$gte</code>: greater than, greater than or equal</li>
|
|
<li><code>$in</code>: member of. <code>value</code> must be an array of values</li>
|
|
<li><code>$ne</code>, <code>$nin</code>: not equal, not a member of</li>
|
|
<li><code>$stat</code>: checks whether the document posses the property <code>field</code>. <code>value</code> should be true or false</li>
|
|
<li><code>$regex</code>: checks whether a string is matched by the regular expression. Contrary to MongoDB, the use of
|
|
<code>$options</code> with <code>$regex</code> is not supported, because it doesn't give you more power than regex flags. Basic
|
|
queries are more readable so only use the <code>$regex</code> operator when you need to use another operator with it</li>
|
|
<li><code>$size</code>: if the referenced filed is an Array, matches on the size of the array</li>
|
|
<li><code>$elemMatch</code>: matches if at least one array element matches the sub-query entirely</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Logical operators: You can combine queries using logical operators:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>For <code>$or</code> and <code>$and</code>, the syntax is <code>{ $op: [query1, query2, ...] }</code>.</li>
|
|
<li>For <code>$not</code>, the syntax is <code>{ $not: query }</code></li>
|
|
<li>For <code>$where</code>, the syntax is:</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<pre class="prettyprint source"><code>{ $where: function () {
|
|
// object is 'this'
|
|
// return a boolean
|

} }

</code></pre>

</ul></dd>

<dt><a href="#projection">projection</a> : <code>Object.<string, (0|1)></code></dt>
|
|
<dd><p>Nedb projection.</p>
|
|
<p>You can give <code>find</code> and <code>findOne</code> an optional second argument, <code>projections</code>.
|
|
The syntax is the same as MongoDB: <code>{ a: 1, b: 1 }</code> to return only the <code>a</code>
|
|
and <code>b</code> fields, <code>{ a: 0, b: 0 }</code> to omit these two fields. You cannot use both
|
|
modes at the time, except for <code>_id</code> which is by default always returned and
|
|
which you can choose to omit. You can project on nested documents.</p>

<p>To reference subfields, you can use the dot-notation.</p></dd>

### new Datastore(options)
|
|
<p>Create a new collection, either persistent or in-memory.</p>
|
|
<p>If you use a persistent datastore without the <code>autoload</code> option, you need to call [loadDatabase](#Datastore+loadDatabase) or
|
|
[loadDatabaseAsync](#Datastore+loadDatabaseAsync) manually. This function fetches the data from datafile and prepares the database.
|
|
<strong>Don't forget it!</strong> If you use a persistent datastore, no command (insert, find, update, remove) will be executed
|
|
before it is called, so make sure to call it yourself or use the <code>autoload</code> option.</p>
|
|
<p>Also, if loading fails, all commands registered to the [executor](#Datastore+executor) afterwards will not be executed.
|
|
They will be registered and executed, in sequence, only after a successful loading.</p>
|
|
|
|
**Params**
|
|
|
|
- options <code>object</code> | <code>string</code> - <p>Can be an object or a string. If options is a string, the behavior is the same as in
|
|
v0.6: it will be interpreted as <code>options.filename</code>. <strong>Giving a string is deprecated, and will be removed in the
|
|
next major version.</strong></p>
|
|
- [.filename] <code>string</code> <code> = null</code> - <p>Path to the file where the data is persisted. If left blank, the datastore is
|
|
automatically considered in-memory only. It cannot end with a <code>~</code> which is used in the temporary files NeDB uses to
|
|
perform crash-safe writes. Not used if <code>options.inMemoryOnly</code> is <code>true</code>.</p>
|
|
- [.inMemoryOnly] <code>boolean</code> <code> = false</code> - <p>If set to true, no data will be written in storage. This option has
|
|
priority over <code>options.filename</code>.</p>
|
|
- [.modes] <code>object</code> - <p>Permissions to use for FS. Only used for Node.js storage module. Will not work on Windows.</p>
|
|
- [.fileMode] <code>number</code> <code> = 0o644</code> - <p>Permissions to use for database files</p>
|
|
- [.dirMode] <code>number</code> <code> = 0o755</code> - <p>Permissions to use for database directories</p>
|
|
- [.timestampData] <code>boolean</code> <code> = false</code> - <p>If set to true, createdAt and updatedAt will be created and
|
|
populated automatically (if not specified by user)</p>
|
|
- [.autoload] <code>boolean</code> <code> = false</code> - <p>If used, the database will automatically be loaded from the datafile
|
|
upon creation (you don't need to call <code>loadDatabase</code>). Any command issued before load is finished is buffered and
|
|
will be executed when load is done. When autoloading is done, you can either use the <code>onload</code> callback, or you can
|
|
use <code>this.autoloadPromise</code> which resolves (or rejects) when autloading is done.</p>
|
|
- [.onload] [<code>NoParamCallback</code>](#NoParamCallback) - <p>If you use autoloading, this is the handler called after the <code>loadDatabase</code>. It
|
|
takes one <code>error</code> argument. If you use autoloading without specifying this handler, and an error happens during
|
|
load, an error will be thrown.</p>
|
|
- [.beforeDeserialization] [<code>serializationHook</code>](#serializationHook) - <p>Hook you can use to transform data after it was serialized and
|
|
before it is written to disk. Can be used for example to encrypt data before writing database to disk. This
|
|
function takes a string as parameter (one line of an NeDB data file) and outputs the transformed string, <strong>which
|
|
must absolutely not contain a <code>\n</code> character</strong> (or data will be lost).</p>
|
|
- [.afterSerialization] [<code>serializationHook</code>](#serializationHook) - <p>Inverse of <code>afterSerialization</code>. Make sure to include both and not
|
|
just one, or you risk data loss. For the same reason, make sure both functions are inverses of one another. Some
|
|
failsafe mechanisms are in place to prevent data loss if you misuse the serialization hooks: NeDB checks that never
|
|
one is declared without the other, and checks that they are reverse of one another by testing on random strings of
|
|
various lengths. In addition, if too much data is detected as corrupt, NeDB will refuse to start as it could mean
|
|
you're not using the deserialization hook corresponding to the serialization hook used before.</p>
|
|
- [.corruptAlertThreshold] <code>number</code> <code> = 0.1</code> - <p>Between 0 and 1, defaults to 10%. NeDB will refuse to start
|
|
if more than this percentage of the datafile is corrupt. 0 means you don't tolerate any corruption, 1 means you
|
|
don't care.</p>
|
|
- [.compareStrings] [<code>compareStrings</code>](#compareStrings) - <p>If specified, it overrides default string comparison which is not
|
|
well adapted to non-US characters in particular accented letters. Native <code>localCompare</code> will most of the time be
|
|
the right choice.</p>
|
|
|
|
<a name="Datastore+inMemoryOnly"></a>
|
|
|
|
### neDB.inMemoryOnly : <code>boolean</code>
|
|
<p>Determines if the <code>Datastore</code> keeps data in-memory, or if it saves it in storage. Is not read after
|
|
instanciation.</p>

## Persistence
|
|
<p>Under the hood, NeDB's persistence uses an append-only format, meaning that all
|
|
updates and deletes actually result in lines added at the end of the datafile,
|
|
for performance reasons. The database is automatically compacted (i.e. put back
|
|
in the one-line-per-document format) every time you load each database within
|
|
your application.</p>
|
|
<p>Persistence handles the compaction exposed in the Datastore [compactDatafileAsync](#Datastore+compactDatafileAsync),
|
|
[setAutocompactionInterval](#Datastore+setAutocompactionInterval).</p>
|
|
<p>Since version 3.0.0, using [Datastore.persistence](Datastore.persistence) methods manually is deprecated.</p>
|
|
<p>Compaction takes a bit of time (not too much: 130ms for 50k
|
|
records on a typical development machine) and no other operation can happen when
|
|
it does, so most projects actually don't need to use it.</p>
|
|
<p>Compaction will also immediately remove any documents whose data line has become
|
|
corrupted, assuming that the total percentage of all corrupted documents in that
|
|
database still falls below the specified <code>corruptAlertThreshold</code> option's value.</p>
|
|
<p>Durability works similarly to major databases: compaction forces the OS to
|
|
physically flush data to disk, while appends to the data file do not (the OS is
|
|
responsible for flushing the data). That guarantees that a server crash can
|
|
never cause complete data loss, while preserving performance. The worst that can
|
|
happen is a crash between two syncs, causing a loss of all data between the two
|
|
syncs. Usually syncs are 30 seconds appart so that's at most 30 seconds of
|
|
data. <a href="http://oldblog.antirez.com/post/redis-persistence-demystified.html">This post by Antirez on Redis persistence</a>
|
|
explains this in more details, NeDB being very close to Redis AOF persistence
|
|
with <code>appendfsync</code> option set to <code>no</code>.</p>

|

<a name="query"></a>
|
|
|
|
## query : <code>Object.<string, \*></code>
|
|
<p>Nedb query.</p>
|
|
<p>Each key of a query references a field name, which can use the dot-notation to reference subfields inside nested
|
|
documents, arrays, arrays of subdocuments and to match a specific element of an array.</p>
|
|
<p>Each value of a query can be one of the following:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><code>string</code>: matches all documents which have this string as value for the referenced field name</li>
|
|
<li><code>number</code>: matches all documents which have this number as value for the referenced field name</li>
|
|
<li><code>Regexp</code>: matches all documents which have a value that matches the given <code>Regexp</code> for the referenced field name</li>
|
|
<li><code>object</code>: matches all documents which have this object as deep-value for the referenced field name</li>
|
|
<li>Comparison operators: the syntax is <code>{ field: { $op: value } }</code> where <code>$op</code> is any comparison operator:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><code>$lt</code>, <code>$lte</code>: less than, less than or equal</li>
|
|
<li><code>$gt</code>, <code>$gte</code>: greater than, greater than or equal</li>
|
|
<li><code>$in</code>: member of. <code>value</code> must be an array of values</li>
|
|
<li><code>$ne</code>, <code>$nin</code>: not equal, not a member of</li>
|
|
<li><code>$stat</code>: checks whether the document posses the property <code>field</code>. <code>value</code> should be true or false</li>
|
|
<li><code>$regex</code>: checks whether a string is matched by the regular expression. Contrary to MongoDB, the use of
|
|
<code>$options</code> with <code>$regex</code> is not supported, because it doesn't give you more power than regex flags. Basic
|
|
queries are more readable so only use the <code>$regex</code> operator when you need to use another operator with it</li>
|
|
<li><code>$size</code>: if the referenced filed is an Array, matches on the size of the array</li>
|
|
<li><code>$elemMatch</code>: matches if at least one array element matches the sub-query entirely</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Logical operators: You can combine queries using logical operators:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>For <code>$or</code> and <code>$and</code>, the syntax is <code>{ $op: [query1, query2, ...] }</code>.</li>
|
|
<li>For <code>$not</code>, the syntax is <code>{ $not: query }</code></li>
|
|
<li>For <code>$where</code>, the syntax is:</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<pre class="prettyprint source"><code>{ $where: function () {
|
|
// object is 'this'
|
|
// return a boolean
|
|
} }
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>

<a name="projection"></a>
|
|
|
|
## projection : <code>Object.<string, (0\|1)></code>
|
|
<p>Nedb projection.</p>
|
|
<p>You can give <code>find</code> and <code>findOne</code> an optional second argument, <code>projections</code>.
|
|
The syntax is the same as MongoDB: <code>{ a: 1, b: 1 }</code> to return only the <code>a</code>
|
|
and <code>b</code> fields, <code>{ a: 0, b: 0 }</code> to omit these two fields. You cannot use both
|
|
modes at the time, except for <code>_id</code> which is by default always returned and
|
|
which you can choose to omit. You can project on nested documents.</p>
|
|
<p>To reference subfields, you can use the dot-notation.</p>

## serializationHook ⇒ <code>string</code>
|
|
<p>The <code>beforeDeserialization</code> and <code>afterDeserialization</code> callbacks are hooks which are executed respectively before
|
|
parsing each document and after stringifying them. They can be used for example to encrypt the Datastore.
|
|
The <code>beforeDeserialization</code> should revert what <code>afterDeserialization</code> has done.</p>
