@pgsql/types

@pgsql/types is a TypeScript library providing type definitions for PostgreSQL AST nodes, primarily used in conjunction with pgsql-parser. It offers a comprehensive and type-safe way to interact with the AST nodes generated by PostgreSQL query parsing.

Installation

Install the package via npm:

npm install @pgsql/types

Usage

@pgsql/types provides TypeScript type definitions for PostgreSQL Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) nodes. These types are useful for constructing, analyzing, or manipulating ASTs in a type-safe manner.

Here are a few examples of how you can use these types in your TypeScript projects:

Validating AST Nodes

You can use the types to validate AST nodes, ensuring they conform to the expected structure:

import { CreateStmt } from '@pgsql/types';

function validateCreateStmt(stmt: CreateStmt) {
  if (!stmt.relation || !stmt.tableElts) {
    throw new Error('Invalid CreateStmt: missing required fields');
  }
  // Add more validation logic as needed
  console.log('CreateStmt is valid');
}

// Example usage
validateCreateStmt(createStmtObject);

Constructing AST Nodes

Types help ensure that you construct AST nodes correctly:

import { CreateStmt, ColumnDef, Constraint } from '@pgsql/types';

const newColumn: ColumnDef = {
  colname: 'id',
  typeName: { names: [{ String: { str: 'int4' } }] },
  constraints: [{ Constraint: { contype: 'CONSTR_PRIMARY' } }],
};

const createStmt: CreateStmt = {
  relation: { relname: 'new_table' },
  tableElts: [newColumn],
};

console.log(createStmt);

Versions

Our latest is built with PostgreSQL 17 AST types.
