localdb's Issues

db.insert should return auto-generated id

If id key is required for further interactions with that "document", whether db.insert() must throw an exception or generate a random id (as it does now) but return that auto-generated id if we omit that field.

Where is API documentation?

Where is the API documentation? Simple .insert, query and remove is on the README.md but we need full API.

A

Insert with preferred id

Hi,

The document reads as follows
If object has an .id property,
However, if I have id or _id or .id it always generate id its own. It is possible to create with my own id?

db.insert with `id` field doesn't work

db.insert({my: 'value'});

works and generates a random id, but following call is not working at all:

db.insert({id: 'hello', my: 'value'});

How to clear whole database?

I created a database with

foo = new DB('foo');
bar = new DB('bar');

and now I need to purge/delete/vanish whole foo database but keep bar database. How can I do that?

Upsert functionality

Hi,

I like to have upsert function something like the below. Can this be added, please?

This code will take json as param, and then will check if already exists, if not it will do the insert operation based on the given id. If already exist, then it will upate.

  upsert(object) {
    if(object.id === undefined)
    {
      object.id = guid()
    }
    const foundObjects = sift({id: object.id}, JSON.parse(localStorage[this.name]));
    if(foundObjects.length==0)
    {
      let table = JSON.parse(localStorage[this.name])
      table.push(object)
      localStorage[this.name] = JSON.stringify(table)
      this.emit('$insert',object)
      this.emit('$create',object)
      return object
    }
    return this.update({id: object.id}, object);
  }
