Interface: QueryClientContract

Shape of the query client, that is used to retrieve instances of query builder

Properties

Property	Modifier	Type	Description
connectionName	readonly	string	The name of the connection from which the client was originated
debug	public	boolean	Is debug enabled on the connection or not. Also opens up the API to disable debug for a given client
dialect	readonly	DialectContract	The database dialect in use
emitter	public	Emitter<any>	-
from	public	FromTable<DatabaseQueryBuilderContract<any>>	Same as query(), but also selects the table for the query. The from method doesn't allow defining the return type and one must use query to define that.
isTransaction	readonly	boolean	Tells if client is a transaction client or not
mode	readonly	"read" | "dual" | "write"	The client mode in which it is execute queries
schema	public	SchemaBuilder	Returns schema instance for the write client
table	public	<ReturnColumns>(table: string) => InsertQueryBuilderContract<ReturnColumns[]>	Same as insertQuery(), but also selects the table for the query. The table method doesn't allow defining the return type and one must use insertQuery to define that.
transaction	public	TransactionFn	Get instance of transaction client
