Node.js CLI Demo

This demonstrates a small Node.js CLI client opening a database, connecting PowerSync and running live queries.

This demo is configured to talk to an example backend you can host yourself. To get started:

  1. Start one of the Node.js backend examples from the self-host-demo repository.
  2. If necessary, change .env to point to the started backend and sync service.
  3. Run pnpm install and pnpm build:packages in the root of this repo.
  4. In this directory, run pnpm run start.

This opens the local database, connects to PowerSync, waits for a first sync and then runs a simple query. Results from the query are printed every time it changes. Try:

  1. Updating a row in the backend database and see changes reflected in the running client.
  2. Enter add('my list') and see the new list show up in the backend database.

For more details, see the documentation for the PowerSync node package and check other examples:
