You dont like the ways 'ORM' are on node for pg?
Do you wish it was simpler?

I never quite liked the ones ready at the moment so i started to use in my projects a structure tha i realized could become a project, and so i made the pg-connection.

A small postgres wrapper to simplify its use you devopment.

Requirements

Requires .env for configuration

How to use

It has basic 3 steps to use:

• Add the following props to your .env: PG_USER,PG_URL, PG_DATABASE, PG_PASSWORD, PG_SCHEMA; If you like or need you cand add PG_SSL, if not set the value is false, PG_PORT if not set the value is 5432.
• At your Model, Entity, Table, or whatever you like to call it, extends @schirrel/pg-connection/Model and:
  • call super with the table name;
  • Use `super.addColumn('propName', 'COLUMN_NAME');
• At your data layer, i call it repositories but you can call whatever you like, extends @schirrel/pg-connection/Repository and call the super with your model reference.

Example

.env

PG_USER=postgres
PG_URL=localhost
PG_DATABASE=postgres
PG_PASSWORD=postgres
PG_SCHEMA=mercado_alencar
PG_SSL=true

Model

`const Model = require('@schirrel/pg-connection/Model');
class User extends Model{
constructor(args = {}){
super("USER");
this.addColumn('email', 'EMAIL');
this.addColumn('name', 'NAME');
this.addColumn('password', 'PASSWORD');
this.addColumn('active', 'ACTIVE', true);
this.setValues(args);
}
}

module.exports = User;`

Repository

`const Repository = require('@schirrel/pg-connection/Repository');
const User = require('../models/User');

class UserRepository extends Repository{
constructor(){
super(User);
}
}

module.exports = UserRepository;`

It already have built in: get(id), create(model), update(model),delete(id), list(), search(options)

The project is only on the start, i will be glad if you could share points of improvement and bugs
