Introducing New Features in Crudify: Streamline Your API Development

Are you tired of writing the same CRUD operations repeatedly for your Mongoose models? Say hello to Crudify! This NestJS library is designed to make your life easier by automatically generating RESTful CRUD endpoints for your Mongoose models. And now, with the latest updates, it’s even better! Let’s dive into what’s new in Crudify and how it can transform your development process.

🚀 What's New in Crudify

1. Advanced Query Parser

The new Query Parser in Crudify transforms URL query parameters into MongoDB-compatible queries. This feature supports:

• Filtering with operators like eq, ne, gt, lt, in, and more.
• Sorting results by multiple fields.
• Pagination with skip and limit.
• Population of references with nested options for filtering and sorting.

Here’s an example:

/users?name[starts]=John&age[gte]=30&sort=-createdAt&limit=10

This query fetches users whose names start with "John," are 30 years or older, sorted by creation date in descending order, and limited to 10 results.

2. Custom Decorators for Enhanced Flexibility

Easily add custom decorators to your routes, whether globally or individually. Use this feature to apply guards, add Swagger documentation, or manage authorization seamlessly.

@Crudify({
  model: { type: User },
  routes: {
    config: {
      findAll: {
        decorators: [
          ApiOperation({
            summary: 'Retrieve all users',
            description: 'Fetches all users from the database.',
          }),
        ],
      },
    },
  },
})
@Controller('users')
export class UserController {}

3. Integrated Logger Module

Debugging is now simpler with the new CrudifyLoggerModule. It intercepts uncaught errors and logs them for you. Configure it to suit your project’s needs, ensuring you never miss an important detail.

@Module({
  imports: [
    CrudifyLoggerModule.forRoot({
      uri: process.env.MONGODB_URI,
      dbName: process.env.MONGODB_LOGDB,
    }),
  ],
})
export class AppModule {}

4. Bulk Operations

Streamline your batch processing with new bulk endpoints:

• POST /your-model/bulk: Create multiple records.
• PATCH /your-model/bulk: Update multiple records.
• DELETE /your-model/bulk: Delete multiple records.

5. Authorization Made Simple

Combine UseGuards with Crudify to manage route access control effectively. Protect specific routes or entire controllers with your custom authorization logic.

@Crudify({
  model: { type: User },
  routes: {
    config: {
      create: {
        decorators: [UseGuards(AuthGuard)],
      },
    },
  },
})
class UserController {}
