inheritedem

em: EM

The global EntityManager instance. If you are using RequestContext helper, it will automatically pick the request specific context under the hood

Accessors

inheritedentityGenerator

  • Shortcut for orm.getEntityGenerator()

    Returns IEntityGenerator

inheritedmigrator

  • Shortcut for orm.getMigrator()

    Returns IMigrator

inheritedschema

  • get schema(): ReturnType<ReturnType<D[getPlatform]>[getSchemaGenerator]>

  • Shortcut for orm.getSchemaGenerator()

    Returns ReturnType<ReturnType<D[getPlatform]>[getSchemaGenerator]>

inheritedseeder

  • Shortcut for orm.getSeeder()

    Returns ISeedManager

Methods

inheritedcheckConnection

  • checkConnection(): Promise<{ ok: true } | { error?: Error; ok: false; reason: string }>

  • Checks whether the database connection is active, returns .

    Returns Promise<{ ok: true } | { error?: Error; ok: false; reason: string }>

inheritedclose

  • close(force): Promise<void>

  • Closes the database connection.

    Parameters

    • force: boolean = false

    Returns Promise<void>

inheritedconnect

  • Connects to the database.

    Returns Promise<MongoDriver>

inheriteddiscoverEntities

  • discoverEntities(): Promise<void>

  • Returns Promise<void>

inheriteddiscoverEntitiesSync

  • discoverEntitiesSync(): void

  • Returns void

inheriteddiscoverEntity

  • discoverEntity<T>(entities, reset): void

  • Allows dynamically discovering new entity by reference, handy for testing schema diffing.

    Parameters

    • entities: T | T[]
    • optionalreset: string | string[]

    Returns void

inheritedgetEntityGenerator

  • getEntityGenerator<T>(): T

  • Gets the EntityGenerator.

    Returns T

inheritedgetMetadata

  • Gets the MetadataStorage.

    Returns MetadataStorage

inheritedgetMigrator

  • getMigrator<T>(): T

  • Gets the Migrator.

    Returns T

inheritedgetSchemaGenerator

inheritedgetSeeder

  • getSeeder<T>(): T

  • Gets the SeedManager

    Returns T

inheritedisConnected

  • isConnected(): Promise<boolean>

  • Checks whether the database connection is active.

    Returns Promise<boolean>

inheritedreconnect

  • reconnect(options): Promise<void>

  • Reconnects, possibly to a different database.

    Parameters

    Returns Promise<void>

staticinit

  • init<D, EM>(options): Promise<MikroORM<D, EM>>

  • Initialize the ORM, load entity metadata, create EntityManager and connect to the database. If you omit the options parameter, your CLI config will be used.

    Parameters

    Returns Promise<MikroORM<D, EM>>

staticinitSync

  • initSync<D, EM>(options): MikroORM<D, EM>

  • Synchronous variant of the init method with some limitations:

    • database connection will be established when you first interact with the database (or you can use orm.connect() explicitly)
    • no loading of the config file, options parameter is mandatory
    • no support for folder based discovery
    • no check for mismatched package versions

    Parameters

    Returns MikroORM<D, EM>
