aqs-typeorm is a tool that builds typeorm queries using aqs output. aqs is a query parser library that can parse advanced operators and also query logic, so when you use it together wit aqs-typeorm, you can create typeorm queries from query string.

Installation

npm install aqs-typeorm

Usage

First you need to parse query string using aqs:

import { parse } from 'aqs';
import { createConnection } from 'typeorm';
import { aqsToTypeorm } from 'aqs-typeorm';
import { User } from 'models/User';

const queryString = 'id{gt}4&name=joe';
const params = parse(queryString);

Then you can pass params to aqs-typeorm to build query using typeorm query builder:

createConnection({
    type: "postgres",
    host: "localhost",
    username: "***",
    password: "***",
    database: "***",
    schema: "public",
    entities: [ "User.ts" ]
})
    .then(connection => {
        let builder = connection.getRepository(User).createQueryBuilder('user');
        aqsToTypeorm(params, builder);
        console.log(builder.getSql());
        // output: SELECT * "public"."user" "user" WHERE "user"."id" > 4 AND "user"."name" = "joe"
    });

There are some more examples that you can find in exmaples folder.

Configurations

You can configure name of different field that could be passed in query string:

Option	Description	Default value
orderField	Name of field to be used as order parameter	order
orderByField	Name of field to be used as order_by field	orderBy
selectField	Name of field to be used to select output fields	select
limitField	Name of field to be used as limit field	limit
pageField	Name of field to be used for pagination	page
perPage	Number of results to be returned
selectJoin	Return joined relation in result or not	true
joinAliases	Alias of join operators (see typeorm docs)
selectAliases	Alias of selected fields (see typeorm docs)
