Package Exports

loopback-softdelete-mixin-with-count

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (loopback-softdelete-mixin-with-count) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

SoftDelete

This module is designed for the Strongloop Loopback framework. It allows entities of any Model to be "soft deleted" by adding a deletedAt attribute. Queries following the standard format will not return these entities; they can only be accessed by adding { deleted: true } to the query object (at the same level as where, include etc).

This is a fork from loopback-softdelete-mixin. The only real difference is that this module does not use the _isDeleted property on a model.

Install

  npm install --save loopback-softdelete-mixin-with-count

Configure

To use with your Models add the mixins attribute to the definition object of your model config.

  {
    "name": "Widget",
    "properties": {
      "name": {
        "type": "string",
      },
    },
    "mixins": {
      "SoftDelete" : true,
    },
  },

There are a number of configurable options to the mixin. You can specify an alternative property name for deletedAt, as well as configuring deletion to "scrub" the entity. If true, this sets all but the "id" fields to null. If an array, it will only scrub properties with those names.

  "mixins": {
    "SoftDelete": {
      "deletedAt": "deleted_at",
      "scrub": true,
    },
  },

Retrieving deleted entities

To run queries that include deleted items in the response, add { deleted: true } to the query object (at the same level as where, include etc).
