@arki/db

Drizzle ORM repositories and database helpers for ARKI. Provides:

• Two runtime entry points (node-postgres pool by default, Bun-native SQL via the bun export condition, embedded PGlite via ./runtime-local).
• An env-aware connection pool reader (getDbConnectionOptions).
• A typed projection builder (initDb.schema(...).create(...).projection) for event-sourced read models.
• A branded-ID factory (createPrefixedId) for stable, type-safe IDs.

Installation

npm install @arki/db
# or
bun add @arki/db
# or
pnpm add @arki/db

Usage

Initialize a database from environment

import { createDb } from '@arki/db/init';
import { defineRelations } from '@arki/db/orm';
import { schema } from './schema';
 
export const db = createDb({
  relations: defineRelations(schema, builder => ({
    user: { posts: builder.many('post') },
    post: { author: builder.one('user') },
  })),
});

createDb reads DB_URL and the pool tuning vars (DB_POOL_MIN, DB_POOL_MAX, DB_POOL_IDLE_TIMEOUT, DB_POOL_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT, DB_STATEMENT_TIMEOUT, …) from process.env and throws on missing DB_URL.

Embedded local development (PGlite)

import { initDbRuntimeLocal } from '@arki/db/runtime-local';
 
const { db, pglite } = await initDbRuntimeLocal(
  { dataDir: './.local/db' },
  { relations },
);

Projections (event sourcing read models)

import { initDb } from '@arki/db/builder';
 
const d = initDb
  .schema(schema)
  .create({ connectionString: env.DB_URL, isDev: true });
 
const userProjection = d.projection
  .named('user-projection')
  .on(['UserRegistered'])
  .handle(async (events, { db, repo: _repo }) => {
    // ...
  });

Branded IDs

import { createPrefixedId, createIdFactory } from '@arki/db/id';
 
const userId = createPrefixedId('usr_'); // 'usr_…'
const idFactory = createIdFactory('post_');
const postId = idFactory.next();

Subpath exports

• @arki/db / @arki/db/init — createDb, initDb, initDbWithOptions. Under Bun, ./init resolves to a Bun-native SQL driver.
• @arki/db/factory — createDb + connection-option helpers.
• @arki/db/builder — typed projection builder.
• @arki/db/runtime-local — PGlite-backed embedded runtime.
• @arki/db/env — validated env object.
• @arki/db/id, @arki/db/id-factory — CUID-based prefixed-ID helpers.
• @arki/db/orm — re-exports of drizzle-orm + drizzle-orm/zod schema helpers.
• @arki/db/pg — re-export of drizzle-orm/pg-core.
• @arki/db/bun — Bun-SQL driver entry (also routed via the bun condition on ./init).
• @arki/db/client — types-only client surface reserved for future Tier-3 sync work.
