| 1 | +# Many2Many |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +This plugin lets you manage many-to-many relationships. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +## Installation |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +Install the plugin: |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +```bash |
| 10 | +npm i @adminforth/many2many |
| 11 | +``` |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## Setting up |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Let's say we want to implement a relationship where every apartment can have many realtors and each realtor can have many apartments. |
| 16 | +We'll also need a junction resource to connect realtors and apartments. |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +First, create the `realtors` table and the junction table `realtorsAparts`: |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +```ts title="./schema.prisma" |
| 22 | +//diff-add |
| 23 | +model realtors { |
| 24 | + //diff-add |
| 25 | + id String @id |
| 26 | + //diff-add |
| 27 | + name String |
| 28 | + //diff-add |
| 29 | + surname String |
| 30 | + //diff-add |
| 31 | +} |
| 32 | +//diff-add |
| 33 | +model realtorsAparts { |
| 34 | + //diff-add |
| 35 | + id String @id |
| 36 | + //diff-add |
| 37 | + realtorId String |
| 38 | + //diff-add |
| 39 | + apartmentId String |
| 40 | + //diff-add |
| 41 | +} |
| 42 | +``` |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +Migrate the Prisma schema: |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +```bash |
| 47 | +npm run makemigration -- --name add-realtors-and-realtorsAparts; npm run migrate:local |
| 48 | +``` |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +Now create a resource for the realtors: |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +```ts title="./resources/realtors.ts" |
| 53 | +import { AdminForthDataTypes, AdminForthResourceInput } from 'adminforth'; |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +export default { |
| 56 | + dataSource: 'maindb', |
| 57 | + table: 'realtors', |
| 58 | + resourceId: 'realtors', |
| 59 | + label: 'Realtors', |
| 60 | + recordLabel: (r) => ` ${r.name}`, |
| 61 | + columns: [ |
| 62 | + { |
| 63 | + name: 'id', |
| 64 | + type: AdminForthDataTypes.STRING, |
| 65 | + label: 'Identifier', |
| 66 | + showIn: { |
| 67 | + list: false, |
| 68 | + edit: false, |
| 69 | + create: false, |
| 70 | + }, |
| 71 | + primaryKey: true, |
| 72 | + fillOnCreate: ({ initialRecord, adminUser }) => Math.random().toString(36).substring(7), |
| 73 | + }, |
| 74 | + { |
| 75 | + name: 'name', |
| 76 | + required: true, |
| 77 | + showIn: { all: true }, |
| 78 | + type: AdminForthDataTypes.STRING, |
| 79 | + maxLength: 255, |
| 80 | + minLength: 3, |
| 81 | + }, |
| 82 | + { |
| 83 | + name: "surname", |
| 84 | + required: true, |
| 85 | + showIn: { all: true }, |
| 86 | + type: AdminForthDataTypes.STRING, |
| 87 | + maxLength: 100, |
| 88 | + minLength: 3, |
| 89 | + } |
| 90 | + ], |
| 91 | + options: { |
| 92 | + listPageSize: 12, |
| 93 | + allowedActions: { |
| 94 | + edit: true, |
| 95 | + delete: true, |
| 96 | + show: true, |
| 97 | + filter: true, |
| 98 | + }, |
| 99 | + }, |
| 100 | +} as AdminForthResourceInput; |
| 101 | +``` |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +And one for the junction table `realtorsAparts`: |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +```ts title="./resources/realtorsAparts.ts" |
| 106 | +import { AdminForthDataTypes, AdminForthResourceInput } from 'adminforth'; |
| 107 | + |
| 108 | +export default { |
| 109 | + dataSource: 'maindb', |
| 110 | + table: 'realtorsAparts', |
| 111 | + resourceId: 'realtorsAparts', |
| 112 | + label: 'Realtors-aparts', |
| 113 | + columns: [ |
| 114 | + { |
| 115 | + name: 'id', |
| 116 | + type: AdminForthDataTypes.STRING, |
| 117 | + label: 'Identifier', |
| 118 | + showIn: { |
| 119 | + list: false, |
| 120 | + edit: false, |
| 121 | + create: false, |
| 122 | + }, |
| 123 | + primaryKey: true, |
| 124 | + fillOnCreate: ({ initialRecord, adminUser }) => Math.random().toString(36).substring(7), |
| 125 | + }, |
| 126 | + { |
| 127 | + name: 'realtorId', |
| 128 | + foreignResource: { |
| 129 | + resourceId: 'realtors', |
| 130 | + searchableFields: ['name'], |
| 131 | + searchIsCaseSensitive: true |
| 132 | + } |
| 133 | + }, |
| 134 | + { |
| 135 | + name: 'apartmentId', |
| 136 | + foreignResource: { |
| 137 | + resourceId: 'aparts', |
| 138 | + searchableFields: ['title'], |
| 139 | + searchIsCaseSensitive: true |
| 140 | + } |
| 141 | + }, |
| 142 | + ], |
| 143 | + options: { |
| 144 | + listPageSize: 12, |
| 145 | + allowedActions: { |
| 146 | + edit: true, |
| 147 | + delete: true, |
| 148 | + show: true, |
| 149 | + filter: true, |
| 150 | + }, |
| 151 | + }, |
| 152 | +} as AdminForthResourceInput; |
| 153 | +``` |
| 154 | + |
| 155 | +Now add the plugin resources to the main config file: |
| 156 | + |
| 157 | +```ts title="./index.ts" |
| 158 | + |
| 159 | +//diff-add |
| 160 | +import realtorsResource from './resources/realtors.js'; |
| 161 | +//diff-add |
| 162 | +import realtorsApartsResource from './resources/realtorsAparts.js'; |
| 163 | + |
| 164 | + ... |
| 165 | + |
| 166 | + |
| 167 | +dataSources: [ |
| 168 | + { |
| 169 | + id: 'maindb', |
| 170 | + url: `${process.env.DATABASE_URL}` |
| 171 | + }, |
| 172 | + ], |
| 173 | + resources: [ |
| 174 | + ... |
| 175 | + //diff-add |
| 176 | + realtorsResource, |
| 177 | + //diff-add |
| 178 | + realtorsApartsResource |
| 179 | + ] |
| 180 | + |
| 181 | + ... |
| 182 | + |
| 183 | + menu: [ |
| 184 | + |
| 185 | + ... |
| 186 | + //diff-add |
| 187 | + { |
| 188 | + //diff-add |
| 189 | + label: 'Realtors', |
| 190 | + //diff-add |
| 191 | + resourceId: 'realtors' |
| 192 | + //diff-add |
| 193 | + }, |
| 194 | + //diff-add |
| 195 | + { |
| 196 | + //diff-add |
| 197 | + label: 'Realtors-aparts', |
| 198 | + //diff-add |
| 199 | + resourceId: 'realtorsAparts' |
| 200 | + //diff-add |
| 201 | + }, |
| 202 | + |
| 203 | + ... |
| 204 | + |
| 205 | + ] |
| 206 | + |
| 207 | +``` |
| 208 | + |
| 209 | +Finally, add the plugin to the `apartments` resource: |
| 210 | + |
| 211 | + |
| 212 | +```ts title="./resources/apartments.ts" |
| 213 | +//diff-add |
| 214 | +import Many2ManyPlugin from '@adminforth/many2many'; |
| 215 | + |
| 216 | + ... |
| 217 | + |
| 218 | + plugins: [ |
| 219 | + ... |
| 220 | + |
| 221 | + //diff-add |
| 222 | + new Many2ManyPlugin({ |
| 223 | + //diff-add |
| 224 | + linkedResourceId: 'realtors', |
| 225 | + //diff-add |
| 226 | + }) |
| 227 | + |
| 228 | + ... |
| 229 | + ] |
| 230 | + |
| 231 | + ... |
| 232 | + |
| 233 | +``` |
| 234 | + |
| 235 | + |
| 236 | +The plugin is set up. Create some records in the `realtors` table: |
| 237 | + |
| 238 | +Now, when creating an apartment, you can select (link) one or more realtors. |
| 239 | + |
| 240 | +After saving the record, rows in the junction table are created automatically: |
| 241 | + |
| 242 | + |
| 243 | + |
| 244 | +## Disable automatic cleanup of the junction table |
| 245 | +By default, when you delete a realtor or an apartment, all related rows in the junction table are deleted automatically. To avoid this behavior, add: |
| 246 | + |
| 247 | +```ts |
| 248 | + |
| 249 | + ... |
| 250 | + |
| 251 | + new Many2ManyPlugin({ |
| 252 | + linkedResourceId: 'realtors', |
| 253 | + //diff-add |
| 254 | + dontDeleteJunctionRecords: true, // prevents automatic deletion of related junction rows |
| 255 | + }) |
| 256 | + |
| 257 | + ... |
| 258 | + |
| 259 | +``` |
