Compatible with the official client

Cbjs is compatible with the official client.
The main goal of Cbjs is to bring TypeScript support. Cbjs also bring more sound and consistent behaviour, sometimes leading to small runtime changes. See runtime changes.

KeyValue Supercharged Types

Once you have defined your Cluster Types, you will unlock many powers.

Inferred return type

const { content: book } = await collection.get(bookId);
const { content: [firstAuthor], } = await collection.lookupIn(bookId).get('authors[0]');

     

IDE Autocompletion

const {
  content: [title],
} = await collection
      .lookupIn(bookId)
      .get('ti
');

const {
  content: [quaterSales],
} = await collection
      .lookupIn(bookId)
      .get('qua
');

   
 
 
 
 

You can learn more about this topic on the page dedicated to Cluster Types.

Discriminated Unions

Because Cbjs uses discriminated unions, type guards emerge naturally.

Sub-document lookup

// The official library would give you : { value?: any; error: Error | null }
// With Cbjs you get :
const { content: [title] } = await collection.lookupIn(bookId).get('title');

if (title.error) {
  throw new Error('Failed to retrieve the title.');
}

// Because of the discriminated union, the previous condition acts as a type guard.
console.log(title);

 

Callbacks

// Check the type of `res` before the condition and after ✨
const result = await collection.get(bookId, (err, res) => {
  if (err) return;
  console.log(res);
});

Better overall result types

Another example of what Cbjs does for you.

const { expiryTime } = await collection.get(bookId);



const { expiryTime } = await collection.get(bookId, { withExpiry: true });
