This Bookshelf.js plugin enables you to define masks on your models and serialize to JSON based on its fields using the json-mask API.

Install the package via npm:

$ npm install --save bookshelf-mask

Require and register the bookshelf-mask plugin:

var bookshelf = require('bookshelf')(knex);
var mask = require('bookshelf-mask');
bookshelf.plugin(mask);

Define masks on your models with masks class property:

var Author = bookshelf.Model.extend({
  posts: {
    return this.hasMany(Post);
  },
  tableName: 'Author'
}, {
  masks: {
    custom: 'id,name'
  }
});

If you're using ES6 class syntax, define masks as static property:

class Author extends bookshelf.Model {
  get tableName() {
    return 'Author';
  }
  posts() {
    return this.hasMany(Post);
  }
  static masks = {
    custom: 'id,name'
  }
}

Use the mask method to serialize the registered masks or pass the fields directly:

Author
  .forge({ name: 'foo' })
  .fetch({ withRelated: 'posts' })
  .then(function(model) {
    console.log(model.mask('custom'));
    // => { id: 1, name: 'foo' }
    console.log(model.mask('name,posts(title,body)'));
    // => { name: 'foo', posts: [{ title: 'biz', body: 'baz' }, { title: 'qux', body: 'qix' }]}
  });

The mask method can be applied to collections and the same options accepted in toJSON can also be provided.

$ eslint src test

Please follow these advices to simplify the pull request workflow:

• If you add or enhance functionality, an update of README.md usage section should be part of the PR.
• If your PR fixes a bug you should include tests that at least fail before your code changes and pass after.
• Keep your branch rebased and fix all conflicts before submitting.
• Make sure Travis build status is ok.
