Tiny but powerful Promise based PostgreSQL client for node.js

designed for easy use with ES7 async/await.


Based on [node-postgres](https://github.com/brianc/node-postgres) (known as `pg` in npm registry).

Can use `pg` or native `pg-native` backend.



## Example



```js

import PgAsync, {SQL} from 'pg-async';



// using default connection

const pgAsync = new PgAsync();



const userTable = 'user';

const sqlUserByLogin = (login) => SQL`

  select id

  from $ID${userTable}

  where login = ${login}

`;



async function setPassword(login, newPwd) {

  const userId = await pgAsync.value(sqlUserByLogin(login));

  // userId is guaranted here,

  // pgAsync.value requires query yielding exactly one row with one column.

  await pgAsync.query(SQL`

    update $ID${userTable} set

      passwd = ${newPwd}

    where userId = ${userId}

  `);

}



```



## Install



```

$ npm install --save pg-async

```



## API



#### Configuring Connection Options

```js

new PgAsync([connectionOptions], [driver])

```



* The default export of `pg-async` is `PgAsync` class which let you configure connection options

* Connection options defaults to [`pg.defaults`](https://github.com/brianc/node-postgres/wiki/pg#pgdefaults)

* Optional `driver` let you choose underlying library

* To use the [native bindings](https://github.com/brianc/node-pg-native.git) you must `npm install --save pg-native`



```js

import PgAsync from 'pg-async';



// using default connection

const pgAsync = new PgAsync();



// using connection string

const pgAsync = new PgAsync({connectionString: 'postgres://user:secret@host:port/database'});



// using connection object

const pgAsync = new PgAsync({user, password, host, port, database, ...});



// using default for current user, with native driver

// install pg-native package manually

const pgAsync = new PgAsync(null, 'native');

const pgAsync = new PgAsync(null, require('pg').native);

```



---



#### ```await pgAsync.query(SQL`...`) -> pg.Result```

#### `await pgAsync.query(sql, values...) -> pg.Result`

#### `await pgAsync.queryArgs(sql, [values]) -> pg.Result`



* Execute SQL and return `Result` object from underlying `pg` library

* Interesting properties on `Result` object are:

  * `rowCount` Number ­– returned rows

  * `oid` Number ­– Postgres oid

  * `rows` Array ­– Actual result of `pgAsync.rows()`

  * `rowAsArray` Boolean

  * `fields` Array of:

    * `name` String ­– name or alias of column

    * `tableID` Number ­– oid of table or 0

    * `columnID` Number ­– index of column in table or 0

    * `dataTypeID` Number ­– oid of data type

    * `dataTypeSize` Number ­– size in bytes od colum, -1 for variable length

    * ­`dataTypeModifier` Number 



---



#### ```await pgAsync.rows(SQL`...`) -> array of objects```

#### `await pgAsync.rows(sql, values...) -> array of objects`

#### `await pgAsync.rowsArgs(sql, [values]) -> array of objects`



* Execute SQL and return array of key/value objects (`result.rows`)



---



#### ```await pgAsync.row(SQL`...`) -> object```

#### `await pgAsync.row(sql, values...) -> object`

#### `await pgAsync.rowArgs(sql, [values]) -> object`



* Execute SQL and return single key/value object.

  If query yields more than one or none rows, promise will be rejected.

* Rejected promise throw exception at **`await`** location.



---



#### ```await pgAsync.value(SQL`...`) -> any```

#### `await pgAsync.value(sql, values...) -> any`

#### `await pgAsync.valueArgs(sql, [values]) -> any`



* Same as row, but query must yields single column in single row, otherwise throws.



---



#### `await pgAsync.connect(async (client) => innerResult) -> innerResult`



* Execute multiple queries in sequence on same connection. This is handy for transactions.

* `asyncFunc` here has signature `async (client, pgClient) => { ... }`

* provided `client` has async methods:

  * `query`, `rows`, `row`, `value` as above

  * `queryArgs`, `rowsArgs`, `rowArgs`, `valueArgs` as above

  * `startTransaction`, `commit`, `rollback` - start new transaction manually. Use `pgAsync.transaction` when possible

* `client` itself is shorthand for `query`



---



#### `await pgAsync.transaction(async (client) => innerResult) -> innerResult`



Transaction is similar to `connect` but automatically start and commit transaction,

rollback on throwen error

__Example:__



```js

const pgAsync = new PgAsync();



function moveMoney(fromAccount, toAccount, amount) {

  return pgAsync.transaction(async (client) => {

    let movementFrom, movementTo, movementId;

    const sql = `

      INSERT INTO bank_account (account, amount)

      VALUES ($1, $2)

      RETURNING id

    `;

    movementFrom = await client.value(sql, [fromAccount, -amount]);

    movementTo = await client.value(sql, [toAccount, amount]);

    return {movementFrom, movementTo}

  });

}



async function doTheWork() {

  // ...

  try {

    const result = await moveMoney('alice', 'bob', 19.95);

    // transaction is commited

  } catch (err) {

    // transaction is rollbacked

  }

  // ...

}

```



---



#### `await pgAsync.getClient([connectionOptions]) -> {client, done}`



* Get unwrapped `pg.Client` callback based instance.


  You should not call this method unless you know what are you doing.

* Client must be returned to pool manually by calling `done()`



---



#### `pgAsync.closeConnections()`



* Disconnects all idle clients within all active pools, and has all client pools terminate.

  See [`pool.end()`](https://node-postgres.com/api/pool#pool-end)

* This actually terminates all connections on driver used by Pg instance



---



## Features



 * [x] `pg` driver support

 * [x] `pg.native` driver support

 * [x] [`debug`](https://github.com/visionmedia/debug#readme) — Enable debugging with `DEBUG="pg-async"` environment variable

 * [x] Transaction API wrapper - Postgres does not support nested transactions

 * [x] Template tag SQL formatting

 * [ ] Transaction `SAVEPOINT` support

 * [ ] Cursor API wrapper
