Unlocking the Power of MikroOrm: How to Retrieve a List of All Schemas in Your Database

When working with a MikroOrm database connection, understanding how to efficiently manage and retrieve data is essential for any developer. One of the common tasks you might encounter is the need to retrieve a list of all schemas in your database using mikro-orm.config.js. This process can sometimes be a bit tricky, especially if you are not familiar with the methods and tools available.

In this guide, we’ll walk through the problem and provide clear and straightforward solutions to help you get the schema list you need.

The Problem: Retrieving a List of Schemas

You may have tried using the following code snippet to get a list of schemas:

However, if you found that the result is always undefined, you’re not alone! This happens because the execute method on SchemaGenerator is intended for schema changes, not for retrieving selection queries.

The Solution: What You Need to Know

Option 1: Using the Driver's Execute Method

To effectively retrieve the list of schemas, you can use the execute method provided by the driver. Here’s how you can do it:

This approach works because the driver’s execute method is designed to handle SQL commands directly, allowing you to perform selection queries successfully.

Option 2: Using SchemaHelper for Direct Access

For an even more efficient solution, you can utilize the SchemaHelper.getNamespaces() method. This method gives you a direct list of existing schemas without the need for manual queries, simplifying your code significantly.

Here's how to implement it:

With this method, you benefit from the following:

Automatic Filtering: The method automatically ignores system schemas that are prefixed with pg_ and crdb_, as well as the information schema.

Simplicity: It abstracts away the complexity, allowing you to focus on developing your application without worrying about SQL under the hood.

Conclusion

In this guide, we explored how to retrieve a list of all schemas in a MikroOrm database connection. By using the driver’s execute method or leveraging the SchemaHelper.getNamespaces() method, you can easily manage your database schemas efficiently.

Whether you are a seasoned developer or just getting started with MikroOrm, mastering these techniques will enhance your database management skills and streamline your application development process.

Happy coding, and may your schemas be ever organized!
