beanie VS deno_std

I recently came across Beanie. A Python ORM for MongoDb. A pleasure to work with and integrates well with FastAPI, the tests document the code well, and at this point it’s only as complicated as it needs to be.

Beanie (https://beanie-odm.dev) is an ODM using Pydantic BaseModel :)

You may want to look at swapping mongoengine for beanie. That supports native pydantic data structures and has async support.

Other link patterns are not supported for now. If you need something more specific for your use-case, please leave an issue on the GitHub page - https://github.com/roman-right/beanie

Today I want to introduce to you a new Beanie feature. MongoDB projections are supported now. It helps to reduce database load and makes your services more efficient.

Beanie - Python ODM (Object Document Mapper) for MongoDB.

Beanie - Python ODM (Object Document Mapper) for MongoDB, based on Pydantic and Motor.

For reference (for the issues you mentioned): 1. This issue was opened almost immediately to solve the weird .only function not working https://github.com/denoland/deno_std/issues/2979 2. That looks weird to me, will get back to you on this one since it should work I think 3. Generally polluting the global namespace isn't great, but because we're only polluting the namespace of a module (and we choose what parts to import), I personally find it quite freeing. I entirely understand how that might feel awkward. 4. you CAN specifying only writing to certain directories! --allow-write=/path/to/dir would allow that!

At least for the ones related to trees, it's just a renaming. Below is a link to the PR. When I initially implemented these trees, I chose the names BSTree and RBTree to keep the names short. I'm guessing the person that proposed renaming them did so to make it more obvious what they are.

https://github.com/denoland/deno_std/pull/2400

The standard library is separate from the runtime. It wouldn't break backward compatibility if you were to update. For example, if you were importing RBTree and upgraded Deno to the latest release, it would keep working just fine. You would only really need to switch to using RedBlackTree instead if there was a change made to it that you wanted.

I think the only time you would need to update your standard module imports to be able to use newer versions of the Deno runtime if the standard module were depending on runtime APIs that have a breaking change.

It is like Demo deprecating fs.exists().[1]

This was fun to read through.

I would need to profile the code, but the startup time being bad for Deno seems like maybe a combination of the code in here being unoptimized:

https://github.com/denoland/deno_std/blob/0ce558fec1a1beeda3...

(Ex. Lots of temporaries)

And usage of the readFileSync+TextDecoder API instead of readTextFile (which is also a docs issue since it's suggests the first one). It seems the code loads the 100MB into memory, then converts to another 100MB of utf8, then parses with that inefficient csv decoder. The rust and go versions look to be doing stream/incremental processing instead.

But it there's some talk to reconsider it

Sorry to hear that. I want to provide expect API in deno_std in the future: https://github.com/denoland/deno_std/issues/1779

I just migrated the module to Deno and rewrote the test cases using the Deno test runner. Also contributed a bug fix to the test runner that I encountered during the migration. An npm version is still available and automatically generated from the Deno code via a small bash script (rewriting imports, adding an index.ts, etc.).

Much of Node.js is written in C, yet it's still called Node.js.

Deno has some JavaScript/TypeScript in it. On GitHub https://github.com/denoland/deno is 22.8% JavaScript and 13.2% TypeScript, and https://github.com/denoland/deno_std is 68.2% JavaScript and 31.6% TypeScript.

So to me it's misleading about the name, but not about what Deno is written in.
