library0.13.5jsnpmunverified

MySQL storage plugin and persistence layer for Modella ORM. Current version 0.13.5 (pre-1.0), last published in 2014, no recent releases. Provides MySQL persistence for Modella models with CRUD operations, pagination support, and relationship definitions (hasMany, belongsTo, hasAndBelongsToMany). Compared to other Modella backends, it uses node-mysql and offers event hooks for save/update lifecycle. However, the package is unmaintained, has no TypeScript support, and relies on outdated dependencies. Suitable only for legacy projects still using Modella.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

modella-mysql
✓ var mysql = require('modella-mysql');
✗ import mysql from 'modella-mysql';
Package is CommonJS only, no ESM support. Use require().
Modella
✓ var modella = require('modella');
✗ import { Modella } from 'modella';
Modella itself is also CommonJS. ESM import will fail.
plugin usage
✓ User.use(mysql({ database: 'mydb', user: 'root' }));
✗ User.use(new mysql({...}))
mysql() returns a plugin function, not an instance. Do not use 'new'.

Sets up a Modella model with MySQL persistence, defines attributes, and executes a query with pagination support.

var modella = require('modella'); var mysql = require('modella-mysql'); var User = modella('User'); User.attr('name', { required: true }); User.attr('city', { required: true }); User.use(mysql({ database: 'mydb', user: 'root', password: process.env.MYSQL_PASSWORD || '' })); User.all({ where: { city: 'San Francisco' } }, function(err, result) { if (err) return console.error(err); console.log(result.data); });
Debug
Known issues
gotchaPackage is unmaintained since 2014. No security updates, compatibility issues with modern Node.js runtimes.
fix
Consider migrating to an active ORM like Sequelize, TypeORM, or Prisma.

breakingNode.js >= 0.8 only. Uses deprecated Buffer API and other legacy patterns. Will not work on Node >= 10 without polyfills.
fix
Use Node 8.x or lower, or migrate to a maintained alternative.
affects: >=10.0.0
deprecatedThe `all` method with pagination is marked as experimental. API may change in future releases.
fix
No fix available since library is abandoned. Avoid relying on pagination behavior.
