Connect

import redink from 'redink';
import * as schemas from './schemas';
 
redink()
 
  // connect to the RethinkDB instance and register the schemas
  .connect({
    schemas,
    db: `${db}`,
    host: `${host}`,
    verbose: true,

  // yay
  .then(() => console.log('Connected!'))
 
  // damn
  .catch(console.error);

API

Comprehensive documentation coming soon. The following examples assume that Redink has already been connected.

Model

The Model is Redink's entry point, and it exposes methods for creating and retrieving Resources.

.fetchResource(id, options = {}) -> Resource async

Fetches the resource with id id.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').fetchResource('1', {
  include: { blogs: true },
  without: { password: true },
}).then(user => {
  // Resource
});

.find(options = {}) -> ResourceArray async

Finds resources that match the options criteria.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').find({
  filter: r.row('age').gt(10),
  without: { password: true },
 
  // merge the `pets` and `blogs` relationships, but limit the blogs to 25 and only get the ones
  // with 'javascript' in the title
  include: {
    pets: true,
    blogs: {
      filter: r.row('title').contains('javascript'),
      limit: 25,
    },
  },
}).then(users => {
  // ResourceArray
});

.findOne(options = {}) -> Resource

Finds the first resource that matches the options criteria.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').findOne({
  filter: r.row('name').contains('smith'),
  include: { blogs: true },
}).then(user => {
  // Resource
})

.findByIndex(index, value, options = {}) -> ResourceArray async

Finds resources that match value using an index.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
// roughly equivalent to r.table('user').getAll(20, { index: 'age' })
model('user').findByIndex('age', 20).then(users => {
  // ResourceArray
});

.findOneByIndex(index, value, options = {}) -> Resource async

Finds the first resource that matches value using an index.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').findOneByIndex('email', 'johndoe@gmail.com').then(user => {
  // Resource
});

.findRelated(id, relationship, options = {}) -> Resource|ResourceArray async

Finds either a resource or resource array that's related by relationship.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').findRelated('1', 'company').then(company => {
  // Resource
});
 
model('user').findRelated('1', 'blogs').then(blogs => {
  // ResourceArray
});

.create(record, options = {}) -> Resource async

Creates a resource. The relationships in record must be an array of ids or a single id.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').create({
  name: 'Von Miller',
  email: 'mvp@gmail.com',
  createdOn: Date.now(),
  company: '1',
  tags: ['1', '2', '3'],
}).then(user => {
  // Resource
});

ModelArray

If multiple arguments are present in model, Redink will return a ModelArray that can be mapped over. The value following a colon in an argument is interpreted as an alias, which is expected to be the key name in the argument of map.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('teacher', 'student:students').map({
  teacher(model) {
    // model === model('teacher')
    return model.fetchResource('1');
  },
 
  students(model) {
    // model === model('student')
    return model.find({
      filter: r.row('grade').gt(9).and(r.row('gpa').gt(3.7)),
    });
  },
}).then(results => {
  const teacher = results.teacher; // Resource
  const students = results.students; // ResourceArray
 
  return teacher.push('students', students);
}).then(teacher => {
  // Resource
});

Resource

Unlike a Model, which describes the appearance of a RethinkDB document, a Resource is an abstraction over an actual, existing document.

.update(fields, options = {}) -> Resource async

Updates attributes of a resource.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').fetchResource('1').then(user => {
  return user.update({
    name: 'Demarcus Ware',
    age: user.attribute('age') + 1,
  });
}).then(user => {
  // Resource
});

.fetch(relationship, options = {}) -> Resource|ResourceArray async

Retrieves the resources related by relationship.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').fetchResource('1').then(user => {
  return user.fetch('blogs');
}).then(blogs => {
  // ResourceArray
});

.put(relationship, data, options = {}) -> Resource async

Updates the resource's hasOne relationship. The data argument is either a string id or a Resource.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').fetchResource('1').then(user => {
  return user.put('company', '1');
}).then(user => {
  // Resource
});

.remove(relationship, options = {}) -> Resource async

Removes the resource's hasOne relationship.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').fetchResource('1').then(user => {
  return user.remove('company', '1');
}).then(user => {
  // Resource
});

.push(relationship, data, options = {}) -> Resource async

Appends data to the resource's hasMany relationship. The data argument is either an array of string ids or a ResourceArray.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').fetchResource('1').then(user => {
  return user.push('pets', ['1', '2']);
}).then(user => {
  const newPets = user.relationship('pets'); // will include pets with ids '1' and '2'
});
 
model('user', 'animal:pets').map({
  user(model) {
    return model.fetchResource('1');
  },
  pets(model) {
    return model.find({ filter: { name: 'Lassy' } }),
  },
}).then(results => {
  const { user, pets } = results;
  return user.push('pets', pets);
}).then(user => {
  const newPets = user.relationship('pets'); // will include pets with name of 'Lassy'
});

.splice(relationship, data, options = {}) -> Resource async

Removes data from the resource's hasMany relationship. The data argument is either an array of string ids or a ResourceArray.

import { model } from 'redink';
 
model('user').fetchResource('1').then(user => {
  return user.splice('pets', ['1', '2']);
}).then(user => {
  const newPets = user.relationship('pets'); // will not include pets with ids '1' and '2'
});
 
model('user', 'animal:pets').map({
  user(model) {
    return model.fetchResource('1');
  },
  pets(model) {
    return model.find({ filter: { name: 'Lassy' } }),
  },
}).then(results => {
  const { user, pets } = results;
  return user.splice('pets', pets);
}).then(user => {
  const newPets = user.relationship('pets'); // will not include any pets with the name 'Lassy'
});
