# Qute Bookshelf Repository
A simple repository that manages a single
bookshelf-modelbase model which is in turn a bookshelf model.
This repository provides many commonly used methods that are found in repository classes / objects
This repository should be used as as abstraction layer between the bookshelf model and services to prevent the bookshelf models from leaking into services (i.e. encourages loose coupling)
This module should be extended / inherited to add additional functionality
qute-bookshelf-repository
will return JSON objects by default. This behaviour can be controlled by the bConvertResultToJson
(defaults to true
) variable that is passed to every method in the API . If bConvertResultToJson
is set to false
, the bookshelf model will be returned.
Unless there is a really good reason to do so, you should not be returning the
bookshelf model
which is passed to each method
### NOTE
This module wraps the original bookshelf-modelbase/ bookshelf errors with quantal-errors. The reason being that it makes
handling certain bookshelf-modelbase / bookshelferrors easier e.g. (Collection.EmptyError
and Model.NotFoundError
are simply coerced to NotFoundError
)
Install
npm install quantal-base-model
Example Usage
The bookshelf model
// giphy-model.js
'use strict'
const bookshelf = require('./../../db')
const ModelBase = require('bookshelf-modelbase')(bookshelf)
const Giphy = ModelBase.extend({
tableName: 'giphys',
idAttribute: 'giphy_id'
})
module.exports = bookshelf.model('Giphy', Giphy)
The repository to manage the model
// giphy-repository.js
'use strict'
const BaseRepository = require('qute-bookshelf-repository')
const GiphyModel = require('./models/giphy-model')
class GiphyRepository extends BaseRepository {
/**
* Repositories must call BaseRepository constructor
*/
constructor () {
super(GiphyModel)
}
}
module.exports = GiphyRepository
The usage of the repository
// giphy-service.js
'use strict'
const GiphyRepository = require('./giphy-repository')
const giphyRepository = new GiphyRepository()
module.exports = Object.freeze({
findOrCreate (data) {
return giphyRepository.findOrCreate(data)
}
})
