3. absurd-sql

Implements a backend for sql.js (sqlite3 compiled for the web) that treats IndexedDB like a disk and stores data in blocks there. That means your sqlite3 database is persisted. And not in the terrible way of reading and writing the whole image at once -- it reads and writes your db in small chunks.

sqlite3 in ur indexeddb (hopefully a better backend soon)

This is an absurd project.

It implements a backend for sql.js (sqlite3 compiled for the web) that treats IndexedDB like a disk and stores data in blocks there. That means your sqlite3 database is persisted. And not in the terrible way of reading and writing the whole image at once -- it reads and writes your db in small chunks.

It basically stores a whole database into another database. Which is absurd.

See the demo. You can also view an entire app using this here.

You should also read this blog post which explains the project in great detail.

If you like my work, feel free to buy me a coffee!

How do I use it?

You can check out the example project to get started. Or follow the steps below:

First you install the packages:

yarn add @jlongster/sql.js absurd-sql.js-backend

Right now you need to use my fork…

A boilerplate for Node.js web applications.

If you have attended any hackathons in the past, then you know how much time it takes to get a project started: decide on what to build, pick a programming language, pick a web framework pick a CSS framework. A while later, you might have an initial project up on GitHub and only then can other team members start contributing. Or how about doing something as simple as Sign in with Facebook authentication? You can spend hours on it if you are not familiar with how OAuth 2.0 works.

When I started this project, my primary focus was on simplicity and ease of use I also tried to make it as generic and reusable as possible to cover most use cases of hackathon web apps without being too specific. In the worst case,…
