Usage

PostgresModule

PostgresModule is the primary entry point for this package and can be used synchronously

@Module({
  imports: [
    PostgresModule.forRoot({
        connectionString: 'postgresql://[user]:[password]@[host]/[nameDb]',
        // or 
        // host: 'localhost',
        // database: [:databaseName],
        // password: [:passwordDb],
        // user: [:userDb],
        // port: 5432,
    }),
  ],
})

or asynchronously

@Module({
  imports: [
    PostgresModule.forRootAsync({
      useFactory: () => ({
        connectionString: 'postgresql://[user]:[password]@[host]/[nameDb]',
        // or 
        // host: 'localhost',
        // database: [:databaseName],
        // password: [:passwordDb],
        // user: [:userDb],
        // port: 5432,
      }),
    }),
  ],
})

Example of use

UsersService:

import { Client } from 'pg';
import { InjectClient } from 'nest-postgres';

@Injectable()
export class UsersService {
  constructor(@InjectClient() private readonly pg: Client) {}

  public async findAll(): Promise<User[]> {
    const users = await this.pg.query('SELECT * FROM users');
    return users.rows;
  }
}

UsersController:

import { Controller, Get } from '@nestjs/common';
import { UsersService } from './users.service';

@Controller()
export class UsersController {
  constructor(private readonly usersService: UsersService) {}

  @Get()
  async getAllUsers(): Promise<User[]> {
    return await this.usersService.findAll();
  }
}

Multi Connections Database

@Module({
  imports: [
    PostgresModule.forRoot(
      {
        connectionString: 'postgresql://postgres:pass123@localhost:5432/nest1',
        // or 
        // host: 'localhost',
        // database: [:databaseName],
        // password: [:passwordDb],
        // user: [:userDb],
        // port: 5432,
      },
      'db1Connection',
    ),
    PostgresModule.forRoot(
      {
        connectionString: 'postgresql://postgres:pass123@localhost:5434/nest2',
      },
      'db2Connection',
    ),
  ],
  controllers: [],
  providers: [],
})
export class AppModule {}

Usage example with Multi Connection

PostService:

import { Client } from 'pg';
import { InjectConnection } from 'nest-postgres';
import { CreatePostDto } from './dto/create-post.dto';
import { Post } from './interfaces/post.interface';

@Injectable()
export class PostService {
  constructor(
    @InjectConnection('db2Connection')
    private dbConnection: Client,
  ) {}

  public async findAll(): Promise<Post[]> {
    const users = await this.dbConnection.query('SELECT * FROM posts');
    return users.rows;
  }

  public async create(createPostDto: CreatePostDto): Promise<Post[]> {
    try {
      const user = await this.dbConnection.query(
        'INSERT INTO posts (title, description)  VALUES ($1, $2) RETURNING *',
        [createPostDto.title, createPostDto.description],
      );
      return user.rows;
    } catch (err) {
      throw new HttpException(err, HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST);
    }
  }
}

UsersService:

import { Client } from 'pg';
import { InjectConnection } from 'nest-postgres';
import { CreateUserDto } from './dto/create-user.dto';
import { User } from './interfaces/user.interface';

@Injectable()
export class UsersService {
  constructor(
    @InjectConnection('db1Connection')
    private dbConnection: Client,
  ) {}

  public async findAll(): Promise<User[]> {
    const users = await this.dbConnection.query('SELECT * FROM users');
    return users.rows;
  }

  public async create(createUserDto: CreateUserDto): Promise<User[]> {
    try {
      const user = await this.dbConnection.query(
        'INSERT INTO users (firstName, lastName)  VALUES ($1, $2) RETURNING *',
        [createUserDto.firstName, createUserDto.lastName],
      );
      return user.rows;
    } catch (err) {
      throw new HttpException(err, HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST);
    }
  }
}
