# IndexedDB Promised
This is a tiny library that mirrors IndexedDB, but replaces the weird `IDBRequest` objects with promises, plus a couple of other small changes.
# Installation
If you're using Rollup/Webpack or similar:
```sh
npm install idb
```
Then in your JS:
```js
import { openDb, deleteDb } from 'idb';
await openDb(…);
```
Or include [the script](https://github.com/jakearchibald/idb/blob/master/build/idb.js) as it is, and `idb` will exist on the global scope.
# Changes from 2.x
The library is now a module. To take advantage of this, importing has changed slightly:
```js
// Old 2.x way:
import idb from 'idb';
idb.open(…);
idb.delete(…);
// New way:
import { openDb, deleteDb } from 'idb';
openDb(…);
deleteDb(…);
```
# Examples
## Keyval Store
This is very similar to `localStorage`, but async. If this is *all* you need, you may be interested in [idb-keyval](https://www.npmjs.com/package/idb-keyval), you can always upgrade to this library later.
```js
const dbPromise = openDb('keyval-store', 1, upgradeDB => {
upgradeDB.createObjectStore('keyval');
});
const idbKeyval = {
async get(key) {
const db = await dbPromise;
return db.transaction('keyval').objectStore('keyval').get(key);
},
async set(key, val) {
const db = await dbPromise;
const tx = db.transaction('keyval', 'readwrite');
tx.objectStore('keyval').put(val, key);
return tx.complete;
},
async delete(key) {
const db = await dbPromise;
const tx = db.transaction('keyval', 'readwrite');
tx.objectStore('keyval').delete(key);
return tx.complete;
},
async clear() {
const db = await dbPromise;
const tx = db.transaction('keyval', 'readwrite');
tx.objectStore('keyval').clear();
return tx.complete;
},
async keys() {
const db = await dbPromise;
return db.transaction('keyval').objectStore('keyval').getAllKeys(key);
},
};
```
### Usage
```js
idbKeyval.set('foo', {hello: 'world'});
// logs: {hello: 'world'}
idbKeyval.get('foo').then(val => console.log(val));
```
## Set of objects
Imagine we had a set of objects like…
```json
{
"id": 123456,
"data": {"foo": "bar"}
}
```
### Upgrading existing DB
```js
const dbPromise = openDb('keyval-store', 2, upgradeDB => {
// Note: we don't use 'break' in this switch statement,
// the fall-through behaviour is what we want.
switch (upgradeDB.oldVersion) {
case 0:
upgradeDB.createObjectStore('keyval');
case 1:
upgradeDB.createObjectStore('objs', {keyPath: 'id'});
}
});
```
### Adding
```js
dbPromise.then(db => {
const tx = db.transaction('objs', 'readwrite');
tx.objectStore('objs').put({
id: 123456,
data: {foo: "bar"}
});
return tx.complete;
});
```
### Getting all
```js
dbPromise.then(db => {
return db.transaction('objs')
.objectStore('objs').getAll();
}).then(allObjs => console.log(allObjs));
```
### Getting by ID
```js
dbPromise.then(db => {
return db.transaction('objs')
.objectStore('objs').get(123456);
}).then(obj => console.log(obj));
```
# Limitations
## Transaction lifetime
An IDB transaction will auto-close if it doesn't have anything to do once microtasks have been processed. As a result, this works fine:
```js
dbPromise.then(async db => {
const tx = db.transaction('keyval', 'readwrite');
const store = tx.objectStore('keyval');
const val = await store.get('counter') || 0;
store.put(val + 1, 'counter');
return tx.complete;
});
```
But this doesn't:
```js
dbPromise.then(async db => {
const tx = db.transaction('keyval', 'readwrite');
const store = tx.objectStore('keyval');
const val = await store.get('counter') || 0;
// The transaction will auto-close while the fetch is in-progress
const newVal = await fetch('/increment?val=' + val)
store.put(newVal, 'counter');
return tx.complete;
});
```
## Promise issues in older browsers
Some older browsers don't handle promises properly, which causes issues if you do more than one thing in a transaction:
```js
dbPromise.then(async db => {
const tx = db.transaction('keyval', 'readwrite');
const store = tx.objectStore('keyval');
const val = await store.get('counter') || 0;
// In some older browsers, the transaction closes here.
// Meaning this next line fails:
store.put(val + 1, 'counter');
return tx.complete;
});
```
All modern browsers have fixed this. [Test your browser](https://simple-idb-demo.glitch.me/microtask-issue.html).
You can work around this in some versions of Firefox by using a promise polyfill that correctly uses microtasks, such as [es6-promise](https://github.com/jakearchibald/es6-promise).
# API
## `idb`
This is your entry point to the API. It's exposed to the global scope unless you're using a module system such as browserify, in which case it's the exported object. If you are using native ES modules, the functions are provided as individual exports, so you can `import * as idb from 'idb'` or `import { openDb, deleteDb } from 'idb'`.
### `openDb(name, version, upgradeCallback)`
This method returns a promise that resolves to a `DB`.
`name` and `version` behave as they do in `indexedDB.open`.
`upgradeCallback` is called if `version` is greater than the version last opened. It's similar to IDB's `onupgradeneeded`. The callback receives an instance of `UpgradeDB`.
```js
openDb('keyval-store', 2, upgradeDB => {
// Note: we don't use 'break' in this switch statement,
// the fall-through behaviour is what we want.
switch (upgradeDB.oldVersion) {
case 0:
upgradeDB.createObjectStore('keyval');
case 1:
upgradeDB.createObjectStore('stuff', {keyPath: ''});
}
}).then(db => console.log("DB opened!", db));
```
### `deleteDb(name)`
Behaves like `indexedDB.deleteDatabase`, but returns a promise.
```js
deleteDb('keyval-store').then(() => console.log('done!'));
```
## `DB`
Properties:
* Same as equivalent properties on an instance of `IDBDatabase`:
* `name`
* `version`
* `objectStoreNames`
Methods:
* `close` - as `idbDatabase.close`
* `transaction` - as `idbDatabase.transaction`, but returns a `Transaction`
## `UpgradeDB`
As `DB`, except:
Properties:
* `transaction` - this is a property rather than a method. It's a `Transaction` representing the upgrade transaction
* `oldVersion` - the previous version of the DB seen by the browser, or 0 if it's new
Methods:
* `createObjectStore` - as `idbDatabase.createObjectStore`, but returns an `ObjectStore`
* `deleteObjectStore` - as `idbDatabase.deleteObjectStore`
## `Transaction`
Properties:
* `complete` - a promise. Resolves when transaction completes, rejects if transaction aborts or errors
* Same as equivalent properties on an instance of `IDBTransaction`:
* `objectStoreNames`
* `mode`
Methods:
* `abort` - as `idbTransaction.abort`
* `objectStore` - as `idbTransaction.objectStore`, but returns an `ObjectStore`
```js
openDb('keyval-store', 1, upgradeDB => {
switch (upgradeDB.oldVersion) {
case 0:
upgradeDB.createObjectStore('keyval');
}
}).then(db => {
const tx = db.transaction('keyval', 'readwrite');
tx.objectStore('keyval').put('hello', 'world');
return tx.complete;
}).then(() => console.log("Done!"));
```
## `ObjectStore`
Properties:
* Same as equivalent properties on an instance of `IDBObjectStore`:
* `name`
* `keyPath`
* `indexNames`
* `autoIncrement`
Methods:
* Same as equivalent methods on an instance of `IDBObjectStore`, but returns a promise that resolves/rejects based on operation success/failure:
* `put`
* `add`
* `delete`
* `clear`
* `get`
* `getAll`
* `getAllKeys`
* `count`
* Same as equivalent methods on an instance of `IDBObjectStore`, but returns a promise that resolves with a `Cursor`:
* `openCursor`
* `openKeyCursor`
* `deleteIndex` - as `idbObjectStore.deleteIndex`
* Same as equivalent methods on an instance of `IDBObjectStore`, but returns an `Index`:
* `createIndex`
* `index`
* `iterateCursor` - see below
* `iterateKeyCursor` - see below
### `iterateCursor` & `iterateKeyCursor`
Due to the microtask issues in some browsers, iterating over a cursor using promises doesn't always work:
```js
const tx = db.transaction('stuff');
tx.objectStore('stuff').openCursor().then(function cursorIterate(cursor) {
if (!cursor) return;
console.log(cursor.value);
return cursor.continue().then(cursorIterate);
});
tx.complete.then(() => console.log('done'));
```
So in the mean time, `iterateCursor` and `iterateKeyCursor` map to `openCursor` & `openKeyCursor`, take identical arguments, plus an additional callback that receives an `IDBCursor`, so the above example becomes:
```js
const tx = db.transaction('stuff');
tx.objectStore('stuff').iterateCursor(cursor => {
if (!cursor) return;
console.log(cursor.value);
cursor.continue();
});
tx.complete.then(() => console.log('done'));
```
The intent is to remove `iterateCursor` and `iterateKeyCursor` from the library once browsers support promises and microtasks correctly.
## `Index`
Properties:
* Same as equivalent properties on an instance of `IDBIndex`:
* `name`
* `keyPath`
* `multiEntry`
* `unique`
Methods:
* Same as equivalent methods on an instance of `IDBIndex`, but returns a promise that resolves/rejects based on operation success/failure:
* `get`
* `getKey`
* `getAll`
* `getAllKeys`
* `count`
* Same as equivalent methods on an instance of `IDBIndex`, but returns a promise that resolves with a `Cursor`:
* `openCursor`
* `openKeyCursor`
* `iterateCursor` - as `objectStore.iterateCursor` but over the index
* `iterateKeyCursor` - as `objectStore.iterateKeyCursor` but over the index
## Cursor
Properties:
* Same as equivalent properties on an instance of `IDBCursor`:
* `direction`
* `key`
* `primaryKey`
* `value`
Methods:
* Same as equivalent methods on an instance of `IDBCursor`, but returns a promise that resolves/rejects based on operation success/failure:
* `update`
* `delete`
* Same as equivalent methods on an instance of `IDBCursor`, but returns a promise that resolves with a `Cursor`:
* `advance`
* `continue`
* `continuePrimaryKey`
