jsonjsdb 0.1.0

Python library for JSONJS database loading

jsonjsdb

Python library for JSONJS databases with full CRUD support and relational queries.

Features

• Read & Write: Full CRUD operations
• Typed API: Optional TypedDict support with autocompletion
• Relational queries: having.{table}(id) for one-to-many and many-to-many
• Filtering: where() with operators (==, !=, >, in, is_null, etc.)
• TypeScript compatible: Same file format as the TypeScript jsonjsdb library

Installation

pip install jsonjsdb

Quick Start

from jsonjsdb import Jsonjsdb

db = Jsonjsdb("path/to/db")

# Read
user = db["user"].get("user_1")
active = db["user"].where("status", "==", "active")

# Write
db["user"].add({"id": "u1", "name": "Alice", "tag_ids": []})
db["user"].update("u1", name="Alice Updated")
db.save()

Typed Access

from typing import TypedDict
from jsonjsdb import Jsonjsdb, Table

class User(TypedDict):
    id: str
    name: str
    tag_ids: list[str]

class MyDB(Jsonjsdb):
    user: Table[User]

db = MyDB("path/to/db")
user = db.user.get("user_1")  # Returns User | None (with autocompletion)

API Reference

CRUD

db.user.add({"id": "u1", "name": "Alice", ...})  # Add row (id required)
db.user.add_all([...])                           # Add multiple rows

db.user.get("u1")                                # → User | None
db.user.all()                                    # → list[User]

db.user.update("u1", name="New Name")            # Update fields
db.user.remove("u1")                             # → bool
db.user.remove_all(["u1", "u2"])                 # → int (count)

Filtering

db.user.where("status", "==", "active")          # Equality
db.user.where("age", ">", 18)                    # Comparison (>, >=, <, <=)
db.user.where("status", "in", ["a", "b"])        # In list
db.user.where("email", "is_null")                # Null check (is_not_null)

Relations

db.email.having.user("user_1")      # One-to-many: where user_id == "user_1"
db.user.having.tag("tag_1")         # Many-to-many: where tag_ids contains "tag_1"
db.folder.having.parent("folder_1") # Hierarchy: where parent_id == "folder_1"

Save / New Database

db.save()                # Save to original path
db.save("new/path")      # Save to new location

db = MyDB()              # Create empty in-memory DB
db.user.add({...})
db.save("path/to/db")    # Path required on first save

File Format

• __table__.json — Index of tables with metadata
• {table}.json — Data as array of objects
• {table}.json.js — Same data for browser (JavaScript)

Column Conventions

Column	Description
id	Primary key (always string)
xxx_id	Foreign key to table xxx
xxx_ids	Many-to-many (comma-separated in file, list[str] in API)
parent_id	Self-reference for hierarchies
