Thinky

JavaScript ORM for RethinkDB.
Note: Beta release

Quick start

Install:

npm install thinky

Use

var thinky = require('thinky');
thinky.init({});

// Create a model
var Cat = thinky.createModel('Cat', {name: String, idHuman: String}); 

// Create custom methods
Cat.define('hello', function() { console.log("Hello, I'm "+this.name) });

// Join models
var Human = thinky.createModel('Human', {name: String}); 
Cat.hasOne(Human, 'owner', {leftKey: 'idHuman', rightKey: 'id'})

// Create a new object
kitty = new Cat({name: 'Kitty'});
michel = new Human({name: Michel});
kitty.owner = michel;

kitty.hello(); // Log "Hello, I'm Kitty
kitty.save({saveJoin: true}, function(err, result) {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log("Kitty and Michel have been saved in the database");
    /*
    console.log(kitty);
    {
        id: "0e4a6f6f-cc0c-4aa5-951a-fcfc480dd05a",
        name: "Catou",
        idHuman: "3851d8b4-5358-43f2-ba23-f4d481358901",
        owner: {
            id: "3851d8b4-5358-43f2-ba23-f4d481358901",
            name: Michel
        }

Roadmap

• Clean/reorganize tests and add more tests.
• Add examples on how to use Thinky.
• Let Thinky cache results so objects so there are no copies of the same document.
• Joins with lambda functions.
• Decide what to do with null (does it throw when checked against a Number?)
• Do not drain the pool when poolMin/poolMax are changed
• Promises?
• Need something? Just ask :-)
