Custom client

[david-plugge]

New api!

Instead of using functions to create filters and more i decided to create a custom client instead.

"Code says more than words":

import type { Schema } from '../../example/Database.js';
import { eq, or } from '../filter.js';
import { TypedPocketBase } from '../client.js';

const db = new TypedPocketBase<Schema>('http://localhost:8090');
await db.admins.authWithPassword('[email protected]', 'secretpassword');

const res = await db.from('posts').getFullList({
	select: {
		id: true,
		content: true,
		owner: true,
		collectionName: true,
		expand: {
			owner: {
				username: true,
				email: true
			}
		}
	},
	filter: or(eq('content', 'bla'), eq('published', true)),
	sort: ['+id']
});

console.log(res);

You can now create your filters, sort and select values beforehand:

import type { Schema } from '../../example/Database.js';
import { eq, or } from '../filter.js';
import { TypedPocketBase } from '../client.js';

const db = new TypedPocketBase<Schema>('http://localhost:8090');
await db.admins.authWithPassword('[email protected]', 'secretpassword');

const sort = db.from('posts').createSort('+id');

const filter = db
	.from('posts')
	.createFilter(or(eq('content', 'bla'), eq('published', true)));

const select = db.from('posts').createSelect({
	id: true,
	content: true,
	owner: true,
	collectionName: true,
	expand: {
		owner: {
			username: true,
			email: true
		}
	}
});

const res = await db.from('posts').getFullList({
	filter,
	select,
	sort
});

console.log(res);

I personally think this is the way to go. The main benefits are:

• less imports
• no need for expand
• view base and auth collections are correctly typed!

There is an issue regarding auth responses as they are wrapped in an object. This makes typing it kind of annoying. I'll try to find a good way to solve this, but maybe i'll delay this so i can release version 0.1.0 later this week.

I noticed an issue with sorts and filters. It seems the npm package is somehow inconsistent:
in dist/index.js the sort code is still the old version. in src/client.ts the code is correct.

Also the assignment of filters seems to be missing in prepareOptions so filters are not doing anything right now.
