BibleEngine can serve as a general purpose library for powering JavaScript bible projects. In it's core, the project makes use of the excellent datasets of Tyndale House to provide features like:

• automatic versification conversion across any bible version
• integrated up-to-date original language text with variants for all text forms
• automatic morphology for any bible version with strongs
• automatic source text matching (verse level), even for bibles without strongs
• integrated glosses for each original word, plus lemma, transliteration and Strong/BDB entries

Additional features:

• offline-first design with remote fallback
• compatible with (almost) all relational databases (via TypeORM)
• performant and space-efficient database design, focussed on bible study use cases
• plugin system to import any kind of bible format
• TypeScript - Intellisense for the win!

• @bible-engine/core: the brain of BibleEngine
• @bible-engine/client: client for reading from a BibleEngine database or server
• @bible-engine/importers: for creating a BibleEngine database and import data from different data sources
• @bible-engine/server: implementation example for a BibleEngine server

To set up a local database for testing, install docker-compose and run:

docker-compose up postgres-db

Install all packages:

yarn install

To generate a new migration to capture schema changes:

yarn typeorm migration:generate -n SomeMigrationName

To test a new migration, run:

yarn typeorm migration:run
