Data source management

In the process of using database packages, we often have multi-database connection and management requirements. Different databases have certain differences in connection pool management, connection status, and usage methods.

Although we can use the service factory to abstract, whether it is semantics or some functions, it is slightly different from the service factory, such as the ability to load entity classes, which is unique to the data source.

For this reason, Midway provides DataSourceManager abstraction to facilitate the management of data sources.

Take mysql2 as an example to implement a mysql2 connection pool management class.

The following is the official example of mysql2, as a preparatory work.

// get the client
const mysql = require('mysql2');

// create the connection to database
const connection = mysql.createConnection({
host: 'localhost',
user: 'root',
database: 'test'
});

// simple query
connection.query (
'SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE `name` = "Page" AND `age` > 45',
function(err, results, fields) {
console.log(results); // results contains rows returned by server
console.log(fields); // fields contains extra meta data about results, if available
}
);

Similar to service factories, we need to implement some fixed methods.

    1. Method of creating a data source
    1. check the connection method

Implement data source manager

The data source manager is also a common export class in midway, for example, we can also put it in src/manager/mysqlDataSourceManager.ts.

1. Create a data source interface

We only need to inherit the built-in DataSourceManager class to implement a data source manager.

DataSourceManager contain a generic type, you need to declare the data type of the data source.

import { DataSourceManager, Provide, Scope, ScopeEnum } from '@midwayjs/core';
import * as mysql from 'mysql2';

@Provide()
@Scope(ScopeEnum.Singleton)
export class MySqlDataSourceManager extends DataSourceManager<mysql.Connection> {
// ...
}

Since it is an abstract class, we need to implement several basic methods.

import { DataSourceManager, Provide, Scope, ScopeEnum } from '@midwayjs/core';
import * as mysql from 'mysql2';

@Provide()
@Scope(ScopeEnum.Singleton)
export class MySqlDataSourceManager extends DataSourceManager<mysql.Connection> {
// Create a single instance
protected async createDataSource(config: any, dataSourceName: string): Promise<mysql.Connection> {
return mysql.createConnection(config);
}

getName(): string {
return 'mysql';
}

async checkConnected(dataSource: mysql.Connection): Promise<boolean> {
// Pseudocode
return dataSource.status === 'connected';
}

async destroyDataSource(dataSource: mysql.Connection): Promise<void> {
if (await this.checkConnected(dataSource)) {
await dataSource.destroy();
}
}
}

2. Provide initialization configuration

You can use the @Init decorator and the @Config decorator to provide initialization configurations.

import { DataSourceManager, Provide, Scope, ScopeEnum, Init, Config } from '@midwayjs/core';
import * as mysql from 'mysql2';

@Provide()
@Scope(ScopeEnum.Singleton)
export class MySqlDataSourceManager extends DataSourceManager<mysql.Connection> {

@Config('mysql')
mysqlConfig;

@Inject()
baseDir: string;

@Init()
async init() {
// It should be noted that the second parameter here needs to pass in an entity class scan address
await this.initDataSource(this.mysqlConfig, this.baseDir);
}

// ...
}


In the src/config/config.default, we can provide the configuration of multiple data sources to create multiple data sources.

For example:

// config.default.ts
export const mysql = {
dataSource: {
dataSource1: {
host: 'localhost',
user: 'root',
database: 'test'
},
dataSource2: {
host: 'localhost',
user: 'root',
database: 'test'
},
dataSource3: {
host: 'localhost',
user: 'root',
database: 'test'
},
}
// Other configurations
}

Data sources are naturally designed for multiple instances. Unlike service factories, there is no difference between single and multiple configurations.

Entity binding

The most important part of the data source is the entity class, each data source can have its own entity class. For example, orm frameworks such as typeorm are designed based on this.

1. Explicitly associate entity classes

Entity classes are generally the same class as the table structure.

For example:

// src/entity/user.entity.ts
// Here is the pseudo code, the decorator needs to implement it by itself.
@Entity()
export class SimpleUser {
@Column()
name: string;
}

@Entity()
export class User {
@Column()
name: string;

@Column()
age: number;
}

The data source manager binds these entity classes to the data source through a fixed configuration.

// config.default.ts
import { User, SimpleUser } from '../entity/user.entity';

export default {
mysql: {
dataSource: {
dataSource1: {
host: 'localhost',
user: 'root',
database: 'test',
entities: [User]
},
dataSource2: {
host: 'localhost',
user: 'root',
database: 'test',
entities: [SimpleUser]
},
// ...
}
}
}

The entities configuration of each data source can add its own entity class.

2. Directory Scan Associated Entities

In some cases, we can also replace it with a matching path, such:

// config.default.ts
import { User, SimpleUser } from '../entity/user.entity';

export default {
mysql: {
dataSource: {
dataSource1: {
host: 'localhost',
user: 'root',
database: 'test',
entities: [
User
SimpleUser
'entity', // specific directory (equivalent to directory wildcard)
'**/abc/**', // Only get files in directories containing abc characters
'abc/**/*.ts', // specific directory + wildcard
'abc/*.entity.ts', // match suffix
'**/*.entity.ts', // wildcard plus suffix match
'**/*.{j,t}s', // suffix match
]
},
// ...
// ...
}
}
}
attention

Attention

    1. When filling in the directory string, use the second parameter of the initDataSource method as a relative path search, and the default is baseDir (src or dist)
    1. If the suffix is matched, the path of entities should include the js and ts suffixes, otherwise the entity will not be found after compilation
    1. The writing method of the string path does not support [single-file build deployment](./deployment#single-file build deployment) (bundle mode)

2. Obtain the data source according to the entity

Generally, our API is on data source objects, such as connection.query.

So in many cases, such as custom decorators, you need a method to get data source objects from entities.

// The following is the pseudo code
import { SimpleUser } from '../entity/user.entity';

class UserService {
// A Model corresponding to the entity class will be injected here, including adding, deleting, modifying and checking methods.
@InjectEntityModel(SimpleUser)
userModel;

}

If the entity class corresponds to only one data source, we can obtain the data source by getDataSourceNameByModel.

this.mysqlDataSourceManager.getDataSourceNameByModel(SimpleUser);

// => dataSource1

In the case of multiple data sources, the data source obtained by this method may not be accurate, and the last set data source will be obtained.

In this case, users are generally required to manually specify the data source, such:

// The following is the pseudo code
import { SimpleUser } from '../entity/user.entity';

class UserService {
@InjectEntityModel(SimpleUser, 'dataSource2')
userModel;
}

The default data source can also be specified explicitly via the defaultDataSourceName configuration.

// config.default.ts
export const mysql = {
dataSource: {
dataSource1: {
// ...
},
dataSource2: {
// ...
},
dataSource3: {
// ...
},
}
defaultDataSourceName: 'dataSource2',
}

Get data source

By injecting the data source manager, we can get the data source through the above methods.

import { MySqlDataSourceManager } from './manager/mysqlDataSourceManager';
import { join } from 'path';

@Provide()
export class UserService {

@Inject()
mysqlDataSourceManager: MySqlDataSourceManager;

async invoke() {

const dataSource = this.mysqlDataSourceManager.getDataSource('dataSource1');
// TODO

}
}

In addition, there are some other methods.

// Whether the data source exists
this.mysqlDataSourceManager.hasDataSource('dataSource1');
// Get all data source names
this.mysqlDataSourceManager.getDataSourceNames();
// Whether the data source is connected
this.mysqlDataSourceManager.isConnected('dataSource1')
