Accessors

connected

get connected(): boolean

Whether a connection to the PowerSync service is currently open.

Returns

boolean

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:180


database

get database(): DBAdapter

The underlying database.

For the most part, behavior is the same whether querying on the underlying database, or on AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.

Returns

DBAdapter

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:173


schema

get schema(): Schema< SchemaType >

Schema used for the local database.

Returns

Schema< SchemaType >

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:164

Methods

_initialize()

abstract _initialize(): Promise< void >

Allows for extended implementations to execute custom initialization logic as part of the total init process

Returns

Promise< void >

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:229


close()

close(options): Promise< void >

Close the database, releasing resources.

Also disconnects any active connection.

Once close is called, this connection cannot be used again - a new one must be constructed.

Parameters

ParameterTypeDefault value
optionsPowerSyncCloseOptionsDEFAULT_POWERSYNC_CLOSE_OPTIONS

Returns

Promise< void >

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:402


connect()

connect(connector, options?): Promise< void >

Connects to stream of events from the PowerSync instance.

Parameters

ParameterType
connectorPowerSyncBackendConnector
options?PowerSyncConnectionOptions

Returns

Promise< void >

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:317


disconnect()

disconnect(): Promise< void >

Close the sync connection.

Use connect to connect again.

Returns

Promise< void >

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:347


disconnectAndClear()

disconnectAndClear(options): Promise< void >

Disconnect and clear the database. Use this when logging out. The database can still be queried after this is called, but the tables would be empty.

To preserve data in local-only tables, set clearLocal to false.

Parameters

ParameterTypeDefault value
optionsDisconnectAndClearOptionsDEFAULT_DISCONNECT_CLEAR_OPTIONS

Returns

Promise< void >

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:363

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:543


executeBatch()

executeBatch(sql, parameters?): Promise< QueryResult >

Execute a write query (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE) multiple times with each parameter set and optionally return results. This is faster than executing separately with each parameter set.

Parameters

ParameterType
sqlstring
parameters?any[][]

Returns

Promise< QueryResult >

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:553


generateBucketStorageAdapter()

Type parameters

Type parameter
T

Parameters

ParameterType
sqlstring
parameters?any[]

Returns

Type parameters

Type parameter

Parameters

ParameterType
sqlstring
parameters?any[]

Returns

Promise< T[] >

Source

getCrudBatch()

getCrudBatch(limit): Promise< null | CrudBatch >

Get a batch of crud data to upload.

Returns null if there is no data to upload.

Use this from the PowerSyncBackendConnector.uploadData callback.

Once the data have been successfully uploaded, call CrudBatch.complete before requesting the next batch.

Use limit to specify the maximum number of updates to return in a single batch.

This method does include transaction ids in the result, but does not group data by transaction. One batch may contain data from multiple transactions, and a single transaction may be split over multiple batches.

Parameters

ParameterType
limitnumber

Returns

Promise< null | CrudBatch >

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:453


getNextCrudTransaction()

getNextCrudTransaction(): Promise< null | CrudTransaction >

Get the next recorded transaction to upload.

Returns null if there is no data to upload.

Use this from the PowerSyncBackendConnector.uploadData callback.

Once the data have been successfully uploaded, call CrudTransaction.complete before requesting the next transaction.

Unlike getCrudBatch, this only returns data from a single transaction at a time. All data for the transaction is loaded into memory.

Returns

Promise< null | CrudTransaction >

Source

packages/common/src/client/AbstractPowerSyncDatabase.ts:489


getOptional()

getOptional<T>(sql, parameters?): Promise< null | T >

Execute a read-only query and return the first result, or null if the ResultSet is empty.
