config file

the tweekdb config file can be generated by calling db.clone_config() and will create a tweekdb.json in your working directory. without this config file, settings will fall back to their defaults. this file is key to optimizing your db. should you have more than one db using the same config file, certain overrides can be set when calling new tweekdb('./db', overrides). by default the config file is set for speed optimization with most features disabled.

backup mode

the config.backup setting will enable db backups on save() and load from the backup file in the unlikely event of data corruption to the db. this setting can be used in conjunction with config.gzip to compress your backups. if you are using a large sized db config.turbo is recommended. db backups can also be called manually. this method is non blocking.

turbo mode

the config.turbo setting will debounce file writes in a non blocking way within the time-frame that you specify. for example, if you set config.turbo.ms to 100, all calls to .save() will have .val() stored to cache but the file write will be debounced for 100ms. if another call to .save() is detected within 100ms, the timeframe is reset and write is debounced again. out of all the consecutive writes you receive within 100ms of each other, only the last write will be written. this process is non blocking and will return/callback to the user at the point of .val() being updated. the speed gains of this feature should theoretically grow with the size of your db.

encryption

tweekdb supports encryption out of the box and can be configured at config.encryption. prior to enabling this feature an appropriately sized encryption key must be generated with the appropriate encoding. this can be created and returned by calling db.keygen(). this method is non blocking when used in conjunction with config.turbo.

gzip

the config.gzip setting will enable db compression should you wish to compress your db and or backup. if you are using a large sized db config.turbo is recommended. this method is non blocking when used in conjunction with config.turbo.

cron

the config.cron setting will enable you to set a recurring cron job to be carried out at the inteval in milliseconds you specify at config.cron.ms. the cron function has one arg which the current state of the db. an example function can be found in the settings section.

serialize/deserialize

by default, tweekdb will serialize/deserialize valid json. this can be customized via the serialize/deserialize functions so that tweekdb will serialize/deserialize from and to any format and or encoding. for example:

  // store db as json pretty
  const db = tweek(new tweekdb('./db.json',{
    serialize: function(data){
      return JSON.stringify(data,0,2)
    }
  }));

  // store db as byte array
  const db = tweek(new tweekdb('./db',{
    deserialize: function(data){
      return JSON.parse(Buffer.from(JSON.parse(data)).toString())
    },
    serialize: function(data){
      return JSON.stringify(Array.from(Buffer.from(JSON.stringify(data))))
    }
  }));

  // store db hex encoded
  const db = tweek(new tweekdb('./db',{
    serialize: function(data){
      return Buffer.from(JSON.stringify(data), 'utf8').toString('hex')
    },
    deserialize: function(data){
      return JSON.parse(Buffer.from(data, 'hex').toString())
    }
  }))

lodash

tweekdb is built using lodash. should you wish, you can create your own filtered lodash module and update the require() path at config.settings.lodash_path.

tweekdb uses all the same chain-able methods as lodash. be mindful that many of these methods will mutate your items in place while others will return a new item.

for example:

{
  "array": [1,2,3,4,5]
}

// remove value 2 from the array and mutates the array.
// this action will update the db cache
db.get('array').pull(2).val()
console.log(db.get('array').val()) // [1,3,4,5]

// remove value 2 from the array but returns a new array
// this action will not update the db cache but will return
// a new array without 2
let x = db.get('array').without(2).val()

console.log(db.get('array').val()) // [1,2,3,4,5]
console.log(x) // [1,3,4,5]
db.set('array',x).val()
console.log(db.get('array').val()) // [1,3,4,5]

examples

// db.load/db.fetch/db.cache will store your db to cache and should only be called once.

// db load from file to cache sync
db.load();

//db load from file to cache  async
db.load(function(err, data){
  if(err){return console.error(err)};
  // db. in now available outside of this scope
  console.log(data.val())
});

//load remode db to cache using the settings in your config file
db.fetch(function(err,data){
  if(err){return console.error(err)}
  // db. in now available outside of this scope
  console.log(data.val())
})

//manually set db cache from any source
db.cache({
  test: "scema"
})

// calling .save() will update cache state as well as write state to file.
// calling .val() will update only the cache state.

//save cached db state to file sync
db.save();

//save cached db state to async
db.save(function(err){
  if(err){return console.error(err)};
});

//save a remode db using the settings in your config file
db.sync(function(err){
  if(err){return console.error(err)}
  console.log('done')
})

// add defaults to base db schema and save state to cache.
db.defaults({
  collection:[{"test":"ok"}],
  array:[],
  key: 'val'
}).val()

// add defaults to base db schema and save state to db file.
db.defaults({
  collection:[{"test":"ok"}],
  array:[1,2,3,4,5],
  key: 'val'
}).save()


// create a key val pair and save state to cache.
db.set('key', 'value').val();

// create an array named array and save state to cache.
db.set('array', []).val();

// create a collection named collection
db.set('collection', [{test:'working'}]).val();

// create object and save state to cache
db.set('obj', {test:'working'}).val()

// append an object to a collection
db.get('collection').push({ id: db.uuid()}).val()

// append a value then prepend a value to an array
db.get('array').push(1).unshift(2).val()

// prepend an object to a collection
db.get('collection').unshift({ id: db.uuid()}).val()

// prepend a value and append a value to an array
db.get('collection').unshift({ id: db.uuid()}).push({ id: db.uuid()}).val()

// remove an object from a collection and add a new object
db.get('collection').remove({"test":"working"}).push({"test":"working2"}).val()

// remove a value from an array and append a new value
db.get('array').pull('test').unshift('test2').val()

// find an object in a collection
console.log(
  db.get('collection').find({"test":"working"}).val()
) // {test:'working'}

// find index of an object in a collection
console.log(
  db.get('collection').findIndex({"test":"working"}).val()
) // 0


// return first item in a collection or array
console.log(
  db.get('array').head().val()
) // 1

// return first item in a collection or array
console.log(
  db.get('array').tail().val()
) // 5

// return last item in a collection or array
console.log(
  db.get('collection').head().val()
) // {test:'working'}

static method

tweekdb can also be used as a dev tool to generate json files by calling .static('filename') from your db items.

db.set('blog_posts', [{
    id: 1,
    title: "post 1",
    author: "x",
  },{
    id: 2,
    title: "post 2",
    author: "x"
  },{
    id: 3,
    title: "post 3",
    author: "x"
  },{
    id: 4,
    title: "post 4",
    author: "x"
  },{
    id: 5,
    title: "post 5",
    author: "x"
  }]
)

// create a json file for each post in the config.static.dest folder
let x = db.get('blog_posts').val();
for (let i = 0; i < x.length; i++) {
  db.get('blog_posts['+ i +']').static('post_'+ x[i].id)
}

utils

config.settings.crypto_utils will add the following utils to the build.

//create config file in cwd
db.clone_config();

//create new cryptographically secure secret
db.keygen();

//generate uuidv4
db.uuid();


/**
 *  encrypt a string
 *  @param {string} data ~ data to be encrypted
 *  @param {string} secret ~ optional / fallback to config file
 **/

 db.encrypt(data,secret);

 /**
  *  decrypt a string
  *  @param {string} data ~ data to be encrypted
  *  @param {string} secret ~ optional / fallback to config file
  **/

  db.decrypt(data,secret);

/**
 *  hmac a string
 *  @param {string} data ~ data for hmac
 *  @param {string} secret ~ optional / fallback to config file
 **/

 db.hmac(data,secret)

/**
  *  hash a string
  *  @param {string} data ~ data for hash
  **/

  db.hash(data);

/**
 *  random bytes
 *  @param {integer} len ~ length
 *  @param {string} encode ~ hex/base64 ...
 **/

 db.rnd(len,encode)

mixins

you can create your own custom chain-able methods using db._.mixin();

// mixin to replace an object within a collection

db._.mixin({
  replaceRecord: function(arr, current_object, new_object) {
    return arr.splice( _.findIndex(arr, current_object), 1, new_object)
  }
})

// use mixin like so.

db.get('collection').replaceRecord({"test":"working"}, {"test":"working2"}).val();
