Package Exports

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 (typeorm-adapter) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

TypeORM Adapter

TypeORM Adapter is the TypeORM adapter for Node-Casbin. With this library, Node-Casbin can load policy from TypeORM supported database or save policy to it.

Based on Officially Supported Databases, the current supported databases are:

MySQL
PostgreSQL
MariaDB
SQLite
MS SQL Server
Oracle
WebSQL
MongoDB

You may find other 3rd-party supported DBs in TypeORM website or other places.

Installation

npm install typeorm-adapter

Simple Example

import { newEnforcer } from 'casbin';
import TypeORMAdapter from 'typeorm-adapter';

async function myFunction() {
    // Initialize a TypeORM adapter and use it in a Node-Casbin enforcer:
    // The adapter can not automatically create database.
    // But the adapter will automatically and use the table named "casbin_rule".
    // I think ORM should not automatically create databases.  
    const a = await TypeORMAdapter.newAdapter({
        type: 'mysql',
        host: 'localhost',
        port: 3306,
        username: 'root',
        password: '',
        database: 'casbin',
    });


    const e = await newEnforcer('examples/rbac_model.conf', a);

    // Load the policy from DB.
    await e.loadPolicy();

    // Check the permission.
    await e.enforce('alice', 'data1', 'read');

    // Modify the policy.
    // await e.addPolicy(...);
    // await e.removePolicy(...);

    // Save the policy back to DB.
    await e.savePolicy();
}

Simple Filter Example

import { newEnforcer } from 'casbin';
import TypeORMAdapter from 'typeorm-adapter';

async function myFunction() {
    // Initialize a TypeORM adapter and use it in a Node-Casbin enforcer:
    // The adapter can not automatically create database.
    // But the adapter will automatically and use the table named "casbin_rule".
    // I think ORM should not automatically create databases.  
    const a = await TypeORMAdapter.newAdapter({
        type: 'mysql',
        host: 'localhost',
        port: 3306,
        username: 'root',
        password: '',
        database: 'casbin',
    });


    const e = await newEnforcer('examples/rbac_model.conf', a);

    // Load the filtered policy from DB.
    await e.loadFilteredPolicy({
        'ptype': 'p',
        'v0': 'alice'
    });

    // Check the permission.
    await e.enforce('alice', 'data1', 'read');

    // Modify the policy.
    // await e.addPolicy(...);
    // await e.removePolicy(...);

    // Save the policy back to DB.
    await e.savePolicy();
}

Custom Entity Example

Use a custom entity that matches the CasbinRule or MongoCasbinRule in order to add additional fields or metadata to the entity.

import { newEnforcer } from 'casbin';
import {
  CreateDateColumn,
  UpdateDateColumn,
} from 'typeorm';
import TypeORMAdapter from 'typeorm-adapter';

@Entity('custom_rule')
class CustomCasbinRule extends CasbinRule {
  @CreateDateColumn()
  createdDate: Date;

  @UpdateDateColumn()
  updatedDate: Date;
}

async function myFunction() {
    // Initialize a TypeORM adapter and use it in a Node-Casbin enforcer:
    // The adapter can not automatically create database.
    // But the adapter will automatically and use the table named "casbin_rule".
    // I think ORM should not automatically create databases.  
    const a = await TypeORMAdapter.newAdapter({
        type: 'mysql',
        host: 'localhost',
        port: 3306,
        username: 'root',
        password: '',
        database: 'casbin',
      },
      {
        customCasbinRuleEntity: CustomCasbinRule,
      },
    );

    const e = await newEnforcer('examples/rbac_model.conf', a);

    // Load the filtered policy from DB.
    await e.loadFilteredPolicy({
        'ptype': 'p',
        'v0': 'alice'
    });

    // Check the permission.
    await e.enforce('alice', 'data1', 'read');

    // Modify the policy.
    // await e.addPolicy(...);
    // await e.removePolicy(...);

    // Save the policy back to DB.
    await e.savePolicy();
}

Custom Database Table Name Example

If you want to use a custom table name for the casbin rules, you need to: Create a custom entity class that inherits from CasbinRule and uses the @Entity decorator with your table name. Pass the custom entity class to the entities array of the data source constructor. Pass the custom entity class to the customCasbinRuleEntity option of the typeorm-adapter constructor.

import { newEnforcer } from 'casbin';
import {
  CreateDateColumn,
  UpdateDateColumn,
} from 'typeorm';
import TypeORMAdapter from 'typeorm-adapter';

@Entity('custom_rule')
class CustomCasbinRule extends CasbinRule {
  @CreateDateColumn()
  createdDate: Date;

  @UpdateDateColumn()
  updatedDate: Date;
}

async function myFunction() {
    // Initialize a TypeORM adapter and use it in a Node-Casbin enforcer:
    // The adapter can not automatically create database.
    // But the adapter will automatically and use the table named "casbin_rule".
    // I think ORM should not automatically create databases.  

    const datasource = new DataSource({
        type: 'mysql',
        host: 'localhost',
        port: 3306,
        username: 'root',
        password: '',
        database: 'casbin',
        entities: [CustomCasbinRule],
        synchronize: true,
    });

    await TypeORMAdapter.newAdapter(
      { connection: datasource },
      {
        customCasbinRuleEntity: CustomCasbinRule,
      },
    );

    const e = await newEnforcer('examples/rbac_model.conf', a);

    // Load the filtered policy from DB.
    await e.loadFilteredPolicy({
        'ptype': 'p',
        'v0': 'alice'
    });

    // Check the permission.
    await e.enforce('alice', 'data1', 'read');

    // Modify the policy.
    // await e.addPolicy(...);
    // await e.removePolicy(...);

    // Save the policy back to DB.
    await e.savePolicy();
}
