Managing relationships between tables is a significant part of dealing with SQL databases. In this article, we continue learning to use Drizzle ORM with NestJS and implement many-to-one relationships. Check out this repository if you want to see the full code from this article. The many-to-one relationship With many-to-one relationships, a row from the first […]
When building a database, the tables we set up often connect to each other. Managing these relationships is one of the crucial parts of working with databases. In the previous article, we learned how to use NestJS with Drizzle to set up a simple project with PostgreSQL. This time, we go further and write more […]
Drizzle is a lightweight TypeScript ORM that lets us manage our database schema. Interestingly, it allows us to manage our data through a relational API or an SQL query builder. In this article, we learn how to set up NestJS with Drizzle to implement create, read, update, and delete operations. We also learn how to […]
As a business grows, there is a high chance that it will expand to multiple different countries. The developers must ensure the application is available in different languages to accommodate that. Fortunately, we don’t have to create a separate version of our application in each language. Instead, we can use tools that let us dynamically […]
Web applications are becoming increasingly complex. While that’s the case, we must ensure the interface is intuitive and easy to use. By allowing our users to drag and drop elements across the screen, we can simplify many tasks, such as reordering lists or grouping items. In this article, we learn how to implement the drag-and-drop […]
As our application grows, the amount of data we receive through our REST API grows as well. We often need to split the data into parts and load them separately to avoid performance issues. A common pattern is implementing infinite scrolling that loads more content when the user scrolls down. In this article, we implement […]
Our applications sometimes include features that allow users to select files from their hard drives, and some functionalities might let users download files. Implementing End-to-End tests that ensure that everything works as expected might not seem straightforward at first. In this article, we create a simple React application that lets users choose a JSON file […]
With End-to-End testing (E2E), we test a fully working application where different parts of our application work together in real-life scenarios from start to finish. The End-to-End tests might also act as regression tests that check if our latest changes haven’t broken any previous features. We might also use them as smoke tests that ensure […]
Unit testing is handy for testing how our React components behave when the user interacts with them. However, this might not be enough. Besides testing the logic behind a particular component, we should also test if our user interface changes unexpectedly. We can use snapshot testing to detect unintended modifications to how our components render. Introduction to […]
When a NestJS application starts, it creates instances of various classes, such as controllers and services. By default, NestJS treats those classes as singletons, where a particular class has only one instance. NestJS then shares the single instance of each provider across the entire application’s lifetime, creating a singleton provider scope. If you want to […]
