Fetch Data
This method requires a readonly key or fullaccess API key gotten from datasquirel. It uses a basic https get request paired with some query params.
const datasquirel = require("datasquirel");
const getData = await datasquirel.get({
key: "aldhkf89asdflksdafh908asdfjkhasdf", // Readonly API Key
db: "my_database", // Database name slug (Eg. Db Name => My Database, Db Slug => my_database)
query: "SELECT * FROM blog_posts", // SQL Query
});Datasquirel uses all conventional SQL query commands. However you can only use the SELECT command when using a readonly API key.
Post Data
This method requires a fullaccess API key gotten from datasquirel. You can perform a basic fetch with this method, as well as more complex operations like UPDATE, DELETE and INSERT.
const datasquirel = require("datasquirel");
const postData = await datasquirel.post({
key: "aldhkf89asdflksdafh908asdfjkhasdf", // Fullaccess API Key
payload: {
action: "insert", // OR "update" OR "delete" OR "select"
data: {
user_id: "19aisdn123",
user_first_name: "John",
user_last_name: "Doe",
},
table: "users",
},
});You can simply replace the payload object with an SQL string and it does everything you provide in the SQL command.
const datasquirel = require("datasquirel");
const postData = await datasquirel.post({
key: process.env.FULL_ACCESS_API_KEY,
payload: "SELECT * FROM blog_posts WHERE user_id='as09d7nasd90'",
});You can add a condition to the payload object to filter the results
const datasquirel = require("datasquirel");
const postData = await datasquirel.post({
key: process.env.FULL_ACCESS_API_KEY,
payload: {
action: "delete",
condition: `WHERE user_id='21adwei9jewr' AND type='buyers'`,
table: "users",
},
});You can use identifierColumnName and identifierValue when updating an entry.
const datasquirel = require("datasquirel");
const postData = await datasquirel.post({
key: process.env.FULL_ACCESS_API_KEY,
payload: {
action: "update",
table: "users",
identifierColumnName: "id",
