arangorizeSchema

[ltwlf]

Great project! I wanted to created exactly the same. I'm going to use it for a software product and would be glad to contribute.

I this PR I added an arango schema generator. The generators adds the all directives and can also create the db, doc & edge collections and indexes.

I also updated typescript, arangojs and other packages. With the current setting I had to remove node 8 support.

The tests are integrations tests and start and stop an arangodb docker container. So running the tests requires docker.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Best wishes,
Christian

I apologize for not responding sooner, I must have missed the notification for this PR. This is certainly a significant contribution and I really appreciate you taking the time. I'm going to merge another smaller fix in a moment, do a bit of cleanup on the main branch, then I'll take a look.

It's been a minute since I worked on this library or with Arango in general, so I may need some time to review this and test it out.

Ok, I updated this repo with som QOL improvements. Running tests in CI now. Will review in a moment.

This is a really great streamlining feature and I'd be happy to include it!

Two things to discuss before approval:

• I think I'd prefer tests which utilize integration with Docker to run separately from standard unit tests. Can you add a new npm script test-integration which runs Jest with a separate config, and move the test suite into __integration_tests__? In fact there's already an old Jest config in the root dir which will accommodate this.
• How attached are you to the name? I'd prefer makeArangoSchema to be consistent with the makeSchema naming convention, since this function is replacing that usage I think that would be intuitive.
