NestJS Database Integration
SQL (Sequelize)
This chapter applies only to TypeScript
WARNING*In this article, you’ll learn how to create a `DatabaseModule` based on the Sequelize package from scratch using custom components. As a consequence, this technique contains a lot of overhead that you can avoid by using the dedicated, out-of-the-box `@nestjs/sequelize` package. To learn more, see [here](https://docs.nestjs.com/techniques/database#sequelize-integration).*
Sequelize is a popular Object Relational Mapper (ORM) written in a vanilla JavaScript, but there is a sequelize-typescript TypeScript wrapper which provides a set of decorators and other extras for the base sequelize.
Getting started#
To start the adventure with this library we have to install the following dependencies:
$ npm install --save sequelize sequelize-typescript mysql2
$ npm install --save-dev @types/sequelize
yarn add --save sequelize sequelize-typescript sqlite3
yarn add @nestjs/sequelize
yarn add -D @types/sequelize
`import { Sequelize } from 'sequelize-typescript';
import { Cat } from '../cats/cat.entity';
export const databaseProviders = [
{
provide: 'SEQUELIZE',
useFactory: async () => {
const sequelize = new Sequelize({
dialect: 'mysql',
host: 'localhost',
port: 3306,
username: 'root',
password: 'password',
database: 'nest',
});
sequelize.addModels([Cat]);
await sequelize.sync();
return sequelize;
},
},
];`
