## README
TypeORM is an [ORM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-relational_mapping)
that can run in Node.js, Browser, Cordova, Ionic, React Native, NativeScript, Expo, and Electron platforms
and can be used with TypeScript and JavaScript (ES2021).
Its goal is to always support the latest JavaScript features and provide additional features
that help you to develop any kind of application that uses databases - from
small applications with a few tables to large-scale enterprise applications
with multiple databases.
TypeORM supports more databases than any other JS/TS ORM: [Google Spanner](./docs/docs/drivers/google-spanner.md), [Microsoft SqlServer](./docs/docs/drivers/microsoft-sqlserver.md), [MySQL/MariaDB](./docs/docs/drivers/mysql.md), [MongoDB](./docs/docs/drivers/mongodb.md), [Oracle](./docs/docs/drivers/oracle.md), [Postgres](./docs/docs/drivers/postgres.md), [SAP HANA](./docs/docs/drivers/sap.md) and [SQLite](./docs/docs/drivers/sqlite.md), as well we derived databases and different drivers.
TypeORM supports both [Active Record](./docs/docs/guides/1-active-record-data-mapper.md#what-is-the-active-record-pattern) and [Data Mapper](./docs/docs/guides/1-active-record-data-mapper.md#what-is-the-data-mapper-pattern) patterns, unlike all other JavaScript ORMs currently in existence, which means you can write high-quality, loosely coupled, scalable, maintainable applications in the most productive way.
TypeORM is highly influenced by other ORMs, such as [Hibernate](http://hibernate.org/orm/),
[Doctrine](http://www.doctrine-project.org/) and [Entity Framework](https://www.asp.net/entity-framework).
## Features
- Supports both [DataMapper](./docs/docs/guides/1-active-record-data-mapper.md#what-is-the-data-mapper-pattern) and [ActiveRecord](./docs/docs/guides/1-active-record-data-mapper.md#what-is-the-active-record-pattern) (your choice).
- Entities and columns.
- Database-specific column types.
- Entity manager.
- Repositories and custom repositories.
- Clean object-relational model.
- Associations (relations).
- Eager and lazy relations.
- Unidirectional, bidirectional, and self-referenced relations.
- Supports multiple inheritance patterns.
- Cascades.
- Indices.
- Transactions.
- Migrations and automatic migrations generation.
- Connection pooling.
- Replication.
- Using multiple database instances.
- Working with multiple database types.
- Cross-database and cross-schema queries.
- Elegant-syntax, flexible and powerful QueryBuilder.
- Left and inner joins.
- Proper pagination for queries using joins.
- Query caching.
- Streaming raw results.
- Logging.
- Listeners and subscribers (hooks).
- Supports closure table pattern.
- Schema declaration in models or separate configuration files.
- Supports MySQL / MariaDB / Postgres / CockroachDB / SQLite / Microsoft SQL Server / Oracle / SAP Hana / sql.js.
- Supports MongoDB NoSQL database.
- Works in Node.js / Browser / Ionic / Cordova / React Native / NativeScript / Expo / Electron platforms.
- TypeScript and JavaScript support.
- ESM and CommonJS support.
- Produced code is performant, flexible, clean, and maintainable.
- Follows all possible best practices.
- CLI.
And more...
With TypeORM, your models look like this:
```typescript
import { Entity, PrimaryGeneratedColumn, Column } from "typeorm"
@Entity()
export class User {
@PrimaryGeneratedColumn()
id: number
@Column()
firstName: string
@Column()
lastName: string
@Column()
age: number
}
```
And your domain logic looks like this:
```typescript
const userRepository = MyDataSource.getRepository(User)
const user = new User()
user.firstName = "Timber"
user.lastName = "Saw"
user.age = 25
await userRepository.save(user)
const allUsers = await userRepository.find()
const firstUser = await userRepository.findOneBy({
id: 1,
}) // find by id
const timber = await userRepository.findOneBy({
firstName: "Timber",
lastName: "Saw",
}) // find by firstName and lastName
await userRepository.remove(timber)
```
Alternatively, if you prefer to use the `ActiveRecord` implementation, you can use it as well:
```typescript
import { Entity, PrimaryGeneratedColumn, Column, BaseEntity } from "typeorm"
@Entity()
export class User extends BaseEntity {
@PrimaryGeneratedColumn()
id: number
@Column()
firstName: string
@Column()
lastName: string
@Column()
age: number
}
```
And your domain logic will look this way:
```typescript
const user = new User()
user.firstName = "Timber"
user.lastName = "Saw"
user.age = 25
await user.save()
const allUsers = await User.find()
const firstUser = await User.findOneBy({
id: 1,
})
const timber = await User.findOneBy({
firstName: "Timber",
lastName: "Saw",
})
await timber.remove()
```
