This is a Typescript client for Tile38 that allows for a type-safe interaction with the worlds fastest in-memory geodatabase Tile38.
- fully typed
- lazy client
- optional build-in leader/follower logic
- easy to use and integrate
- no external dependencies other than redis
- build in auto-pagination
"node": ">=20.x"
"ioredis" ">=5.0.0"yarn add @iwpnd/tile38-tsimport { Tile38 } from '@iwpnd/tile38-ts';
const tile38 = new Tile38('leader:9851');When it comes to replication, Tile38 follows a leader-follower model. The leader receives all commands that SET data, a follower on the other hand is read-only and can only query data. For more on replication in Tile38 refer to the official documentation.
This client is not meant to setup a replication, because this should happen in your infrastructure. But it helps you to specifically execute commands on leader or follower. This way you can make sure that the leader always has enough resources to execute SETs and fire geofence events on webhooks.
For now we allow for one follower URI to bet set alongside the leader URI.
const tile38 = new Tile38('leader:9851', 'follower:9851');Once the client is instantiated with a follower, commands can be explicitly send
to the follower, but adding .follower() to your command chaining.
await tile38.follower().get('fleet', 'truck1').asObjects();We expose ioredis RedisOptions.
new Tile38(
'leader:9851',
'follower:9851',
// e.g. to set a retry strategy
{
retryStrategy: (times) => {
return Math.min(times * 50, 2000);
},
}
);We expose ioredis Events.
new Tile38()
.on('connect', () => console.log('connected'))
.on('error', console.error);Tile38 has hidden limits set for the amount of objects that can be returned in one request. For most queries/searches this limit is set to 100. This client gives you the option to either paginate the results yourself by add .cursor() and .limit() to your queries, or it abstracts pagination away from the user by adding .all().
Let's say your fleet in Berlin extends 100 vehicles, then
await tile38.within('fleet').get('cities', 'Berlin').asObjects();will only return 100 vehicle objects. Now you can either get the rest by setting the limit to the amount of vehicles you have in the city and get them all.
await tile38.within('fleet').limit(10000).get('cities', 'Berlin').asObjects();Or, you can paginate the results in multiple concurrent requests to fit your requirements.

Intersects searches a key for objects that are fully contained within a given bounding area, but also returns those that intersect the requested area.
When used to search a collection of keys consisting of Point objects (e.g. vehicle movement data) it works like a .within() search as Points cannot intersect.
When used to search a collection of keys consisting of Polygon or LineString it also returns objects, that only partly overlap the requested area.

A geofence is a virtual boundary that can detect when an object enters or exits the area. This boundary can be a radius or any search area format, such as a bounding box, GeoJSON object, etc. Tile38 can turn any standard search into a geofence monitor by adding the FENCE keyword to the search.
Geofence events can be:
inside(object in specified area),outside(object outside specified area),enter(object enters specified area),exit(object exits specified area),crosses(object that was not in specified area, has enter/exit it).
Geofence events can be send on upon commands:
setwhich sends an event when an object is.set()delwhich sends a last event when the object that resides in the geosearch is deleted via.del()dropwhich sends a message when the entire collection is dropped
Creates a webhook that points to a geosearch (NEARBY/WITHIN/INTERSECTS). Whenever a commands creates/deletes/drops an object that fulfills the geosearch, an event is send to the specified endpoint.
// sends event to endpoint, when object in 'fleet'

Similar to setHook(), but opens a PUB/SUB channel.
// Start a channel that sends event, when object in 'fleet'
// enters the area of a 500m radius around
// latitude 33.5123 and longitude -112.2693
await tile38
.setChan('warehouse')
.nearby('fleet')
.point(33.5123, -112.2693, 500)
.exec();Now add a receiving channel and add an event handler.
const channel = await tile38.channel();
channel.on('message', (message) => console.log(message));
// also as of tile38 v1.33.1 followers can open a channel
const followerChannel = await tile38.follower().channel();
followerChannel.on('message', (message) => console.log(message));Now that channel can:
// be subscribed to
await channel.subscribe('warehouse');
// or pattern subscribed to
await channel.pSubscribe('ware*');
// also as of tile38 v1.33.1 followers can open a channel
await followerChannel.subscribe('warehouse');
// or pattern subscribed to
await followerChannel.pSubscribe('ware*');Every set .set() results in:
await tile38.set('fleet', 'bus').point(33.5123001, -112.2693001).exec();
// event =
