Pure Node.js implementation of PostgreSQL's createdb and dropdb tools.

Only supports connection options and database name at the moment.

npm install --save -g pgtools

createdbjs my_awesome_db --user=admin --password=admin

var pgtools = require('pgtools');

// This can also be a connection string
// (in which case the database part is ignored and replaced with postgres)

const config = {
  user: 'postgres',
  password: 'some pass',
  port: 5432,
  host: 'localhost'
}

pgtools.createdb(config, 'test-db', function (err, res) {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err);
    process.exit(-1);
  }
  console.log(res);

  pgtools.dropdb(config, 'test-db', function (err, res) {
    if (err) {
      console.error(err);
      process.exit(-1);
    }
    console.log(res);
  });
});
// a promise API is also available if cb is omitted

pgtools.createdb(config, dbname [, cb(err)])

pgtools.dropdb(config, dbname [, cb(err)])

• object config

  An object with user, password, port, and host properties. This can also be a node-postgres compatible connection string.

• string dbname

  The name of the database to create.

• function cb

  A callback that takes an error argument. If cb is omitted the function will return a Promise.

pgtools installs two useful binaries:

• createdbjs: which emulates pgtools' createdb functionality.
• dropdbjs: which emulates pgtools' dropdb functionality.

Rather than manually running npm version <patch|minor|major>, instead run:

npm run release

This will automatically generating a CHANGELOG, and bump your package version based on the angular commit format.
