Datastore.persistence is undefined.

Datastore.persistence is undefined.

This is still an issue 4.0. Couldn't either access after create with .persistence or didn't grok how except via .__original.persistence

So decided to extend your class for easier access

Maybe some/all worthy of incorporating?

class DataStore extends NEDBP {
  constructor(opts){
    super(opts)
  }

  indexes () {
    return this.__original.indexes
  }

  compact () {
    this.__original.persistence.compactDatafile()
  }

  autoCompact(interval) {
    this.__original.persistence.setAutocompactionInterval(interval)
  }

  async get (id) {
    let doc = await this.findOne({_id:id})
    return doc[id] ? doc[id] : doc
  }

  nedb() {
    return this.__original
  }
}

Hey there!
Sorry for the delayed answer, I have been busy.
It's been a long time and by now it is probably irrelevant but this should be fixed with 1.1.2's new Datastore.create method. If you want to, check out that version and see if this issue can be closed or not.

Same issue in 4.1.0 with TypeScript.

I use the following code to work correctly

import Nedb from "nedb-promises";

let nedb = new Nedb({...});

let nedbAny: any = nedb;
nedbAny.__original.persistence.setAutocompactionInterval(1);

Can you elaborate what is and what isn't working? Is it the autocompletion? Does typescript not compile because it thinks persistence is not a property of the datastore? What's the issue here exactly?
Because in pure node JS using Datastore.create I can access persistence without any problem:

datastore.persistence.mov

It's just the autocompletion problem 😑! The index.d.ts file caused this problem.

Thanks to @catmade the typescript definition file was fixed in #36 and published to npm in 4.1.1. This should not be an issue from now on.
