execute()

execute<T>(sql, parameters?): Promise<QueryResult<T>>;

Execute a SQL write (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE) query and optionally return results.

When using the default client-side JSON-based view system, the returned result's rowsAffected may be 0 for successful UPDATE and DELETE statements. Use a RETURNING clause and inspect result.rows when you need to confirm which rows changed.

Type Parameters

Type Parameter	Default type
T	SqliteRecord

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
sql	string	The SQL query to execute
parameters?	any[]	Optional array of parameters to bind to the query

Returns

Promise<QueryResult<T>>

The query result as an object with structured key-value pairs

Inherited from

BasePowerSyncDatabase.execute

---

executeBatch()

executeBatch(sql, parameters?): Promise<QueryResult<never>>;

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

Parameter	Type	Description
sql	string	The SQL query to execute
parameters?	any[][]	Optional 2D array of parameter sets, where each inner array is a set of parameters for one execution

Returns

Promise<QueryResult<never>>

The query result

Inherited from

BasePowerSyncDatabase.executeBatch

---

executeRaw()

executeRaw(sql, parameters?): Promise<RawQueryResult>;

Execute a SQL write (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE) query directly on the database without any PowerSync processing. This bypasses certain PowerSync abstractions and is useful for accessing the raw database results.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
sql	string	The SQL query to execute
parameters?	any[]	Optional array of parameters to bind to the query

Returns

Promise<RawQueryResult>

The RawQueryResult representing each row as an array.

Inherited from

BasePowerSyncDatabase.executeRaw

---

get()

get<T>(sql, parameters?): Promise<T>;

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

Type Parameters

Type Parameter
T

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
sql	string	The SQL query to execute
parameters?	any[]	Optional array of parameters to bind to the query

Returns

Promise<T>

The first result matching the query

Throws

Error if no rows are returned

Inherited from

BasePowerSyncDatabase.get

---

getAll()

getAll<T>(sql, parameters?): Promise<T[]>;

Execute a read-only query and return results.

Type Parameters

Type Parameter
T

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
sql	string	The SQL query to execute
parameters?	any[]	Optional array of parameters to bind to the query

Returns

Promise<T[]>

An array of results

Inherited from

BasePowerSyncDatabase.getAll

---

getClientId()

getClientId(): Promise<string>;

Get an unique client id for this database.

The id is not reset when the database is cleared, only when the database is deleted.

Returns

Promise<string>

A unique identifier for the database instance

Inherited from

BasePowerSyncDatabase.getClientId

---

getCrudBatch()

getCrudBatch(limit?): Promise<CrudBatch | null>;

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 the limit parameter 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

Parameter	Type	Description
limit?	number	Maximum number of CRUD entries to include in the batch

Returns

Promise<CrudBatch | null>

A batch of CRUD operations to upload, or null if there are none

Inherited from

BasePowerSyncDatabase.getCrudBatch

---

getCrudTransactions()

getCrudTransactions(): AsyncIterable<CrudTransaction, null>;

Returns an async iterator of completed transactions with local writes against the database.

This is typically used from the PowerSyncBackendConnector.uploadData callback. Each entry emitted by the returned iterator is a full transaction containing all local writes made while that transaction was active.

Unlike CommonPowerSyncDatabase.getNextCrudTransaction, which always returns the oldest transaction that hasn't been CrudTransaction.completed yet, this iterator can be used to receive multiple transactions. Calling CrudTransaction.complete will mark that and all prior transactions emitted by the iterator as completed.

This can be used to upload multiple transactions in a single batch, e.g with:

let lastTransaction = null;
let batch = [];

for await (const transaction of database.getCrudTransactions()) {
  batch.push(...transaction.crud);
  lastTransaction = transaction;

  if (batch.length > 10) {
    break;
   }
}

If there is no local data to upload, the async iterator complete without emitting any items.

Note that iterating over async iterables requires a polyfill for React Native.

Returns

AsyncIterable<CrudTransaction, null>

Inherited from

BasePowerSyncDatabase.getCrudTransactions

---

getNextCrudTransaction()

getNextCrudTransaction(): Promise<CrudTransaction | null>;

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

Returns

Promise<CrudTransaction | null>

A transaction of CRUD operations to upload, or null if there are none

Inherited from

BasePowerSyncDatabase.getNextCrudTransaction

---

getOptional()

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

This is preferred over CommonPowerSyncDatabase.watchWithCallback when multiple queries need to be performed together when data is changed.

Note that the onChange callback member of the handler is required.

Parameters

This method requires an active or connecting sync client connected with a CheckpointMode set to requests and PowerSync service version 1.24.0 or later.

It can throw for connection, mode, authentication, or service request failures.

resolveTables()

resolveTables(
   sql, 
   parameters?,

When a priority target is set, the promise may complete when all buckets with the given (or higher) priorities have been synchronized. This can be earlier than a complete sync.

Returns
