Services - Operations

Eicrud's services offer the following CRUD methods out of the box. Check out the client page to call them from your front end.

Warning

In the following examples CRUD methods are called directly from CrudServices, this means Security rules are not enforced and Validations/Transforms are not applied. All these checks happen at the controller level.

Create Operations

$create

Create a new entity.

const newProfile: Partial<Profile> = {
    userName: "Jon Doe",
    owner: ctx.userId
}
await profileService.$create(newProfile, ctx);

$createBatch

Create new entities.

const newProfiles: Partial<Profile>[] = [
    {
    userName: "Jon Doe",
    owner: '507f1f77bcf86cd799439011'
    },
    {
    userName: "Sarah Doe",

    },
]

await profileService.$createBatch(newProfiles, ctx);

const query: Partial<Profile> = {
    astroSign: "Aries"

const ids = ['4d3ed089fb60ab534684b7e9', '4d3ed089fb60ab534684b7ff']

$patchOne will throw if the queried entity doesn't exist.

$patch

Update every entity that matches a query.

const query: Partial<Profile> = {
    astroSign: "Aries"
}
const update: Partial<Profile> = {
    bio: "Is passionate and motivated."
}
await profileService.$patch(query, update, ctx);

await profileService.$patch(query, update, ctx);

$patchBatch

        data: {
            bio: "Is generous."

await profileService.$patchBatch(updates, ctx);
