This library provides an easy-to-use interface for working with MySQL databases in NestJS applications. It is built on top of the popular sequelize and sequelize-typescript libraries, and provides a set of convenient abstractions for working with these libraries.

To install this library, use either npm or yarn:

npm install @joktec/mysql
# or
yarn add @joktec/mysql

To use this library, you must first provide the necessary configuration. This can be done by creating a config.yml file in your application's root directory, with the following content:

mysql:
  host: localhost
  port: 3306
  user: my_user
  password: my_pass
  database: my_database

Replace the values with your actual database connection information.

Once you have provided the configuration, you can create a MysqlModule in your NestJS application:

import { CoreModule, Module } from '@joktec/core';
import { MysqlModule } from '@joktec/mysql';

@Module({
  imports: [CoreModule, MysqlModule],
})
export class AppModule {}

You can then use the MysqlService to interact with the database:

import { Injectable } from '@joktec/core';
import { MysqlService } from '@joktec/mysql';

@Injectable()
export class UserService {
  constructor(private readonly mysqlService: MysqlService) {}

  async getUsers() {
    const users = await this.mysqlService.getModel(User).findAll();
    return users;
  }
}

You can define a model using @joktec/mysql (based on interface of sequelize-typescript):

import { Table, Column, Model } from '@joktec/mysql';

@Table
export class User extends Model<User> {
  @Column
  name: string;

  @Column
  email: string;
}

You can create a repository for your model by extending the MysqlRepository class and providing the model type as a generic argument:

import { Injectable } from '@nestjs/common';
import { MysqlRepository } from '@joktec/mysql';
import { User } from './user.model';

@Injectable()
export class UserRepository extends MysqlRepository<User> {}

You can then use the repository in your service:

import { Injectable } from '@nestjs/common';
import { UserRepository } from './user.repository';

@Injectable()
export class UserService {
  constructor(private readonly userRepository: UserRepository) {}

  async getUsers() {
    const users = await this.userRepository.findAll();
    return users;
  }
}
