User friendly API query language

iris-ql

Iris is a safe and user-friendly query system for building flexible APIs with intuitive UIs to match. Built on top of human-schema and Sequelize. Check out the docs folder to get started!

Install

npm install iris-ql --save

Basic Example

import { Query } from 'iris-ql'

// Find all crimes by criminal 1 or 2 after 2017
const query = new Query({
  limit: 100,
  filters: {
    createdAt: { $gt: '2017-05-13T00:00:00.000Z' },
    $or: [
      { name: 'Criminal 1' },
      { name: 'Criminal 2' }
    ]
  },
  orderings: [
    { value: { field: 'createdAt' }, direction: 'desc' }
  ]
}, { model: crime })

const results = await query.execute()

Analytics Example

import { AnalyticsQuery } from 'iris-ql'

// get a time series of all 911 calls
const crimeTimeSeries = new AnalyticsQuery({
  filters: {
    data: {
      receivedAt: { $ne: null }
    }
  },
  aggregations: [
    { value: { function: 'count' }, alias: 'total' },
    {
      alias: 'day',
      value: {
        function: 'bucket',
        arguments: [
          'day',
          { field: 'data.receivedAt' }
        ]
      }
    }
  ],
  orderings: [
    { value: { field: 'day' }, direction: 'desc' }
  ],
  groupings: [
    { field: 'day' }
  ]
}, { model: emergencyCall })

const results = await crimeTimeSeries.execute()

/*
[
  { total: 20, day: '2017-05-13T00:00:00.000Z' },
  { total: 3, day: '2017-05-14T00:00:00.000Z' },
  { total: 2, day: '2017-05-15T00:00:00.000Z' }
]
*/

DB Support

Currently only works with Postgres 12+. Some features and specific functions may require newer versions. In the future, the database layer will be broken out into adapters and multiple stores will be supported.
