Waterline adapter for Cloudant.
0.0.1 - Initial version of the adapter, its a adaptation from sails-couchdb-orm that is no longer being maintained
Add this module to your sails.js project:
$ npm install sails-cloudant-orm --save
var db = {
adapter: 'sails-cloudant-orm', // adapter module
host: 'localhost', // server address
port: '443', // database port
username: process.env.DB_USER, // database user name
password: process.env.DB_PASSWORD, // database password
database: 'mixblog', // the database name
migrate: 'safe', // 'safe' is safe for production, 'drop' will drop the database every time, 'alter' will add / delete columns
https: true // if server is http or https
}
Besides the usual Waterline stuff, this adapter also provides the class methods merge
, authenticate
and session
.
TODO docs
Merge some attributes into one document.
Example:
var someAttributes = {
lastName: 'Simpson',
favoriteFood: 'beer'
};
var id = '[email protected]';
User.merge(id, someAttributes, function(err, homer) {
// ...
});
Authenticate against the Cloudant user database (_users
).
Example:
var username = req.param('username');
var password = req.param('password');
Users.authenticate(username, password, function(err, sessionId, username, roles) {
// ...
});
Get the Cloudant session object.
Example:
var sessionId = req.cookies.sid;
Users.session(sessionId, function(err, session) {
// ...
});
Waterline is a brand new kind of storage and retrieval engine.
It provides a uniform API for accessing stuff from different kinds of databases, protocols, and 3rd party APIs. That means you write the same code to get users, whether they live in MySQL, LDAP, MongoDB, or Facebook.
The sails-couchdb-orm adapter was published in npm by Daniel Duan - https://www.npmjs.com/~danielduan , many thanks to him And thanks so much to Pedro Teixeira(@pgte) for building this adapter (as written in other package readme).
