MySQL with Node.js

Question

I\'ve just started getting into Node.js. I come from a PHP background, so I\'m fairly used to using MySQL for all my database needs.

How can I use MySQL with Node.js

Answer 1

Here is production code which may help you.

Package.json

{
  "name": "node-mysql",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "dependencies": {
    "express": "^4.10.6",
    "mysql": "^2.5.4"
  }
}

Here is Server file.

var express   =    require("express");
var mysql     =    require('mysql');
var app       =    express();

var pool      =    mysql.createPool({
    connectionLimit : 100, //important
    host     : 'localhost',
    user     : 'root',
    password : '',
    database : 'address_book',
    debug    :  false
});

function handle_database(req,res) {

    pool.getConnection(function(err,connection){
        if (err) {
          connection.release();
          res.json({"code" : 100, "status" : "Error in connection database"});
          return;
        }   

        console.log('connected as id ' + connection.threadId);

        connection.query("select * from user",function(err,rows){
            connection.release();
            if(!err) {
                res.json(rows);
            }           
        });

        connection.on('error', function(err) {      
              res.json({"code" : 100, "status" : "Error in connection database"});
              return;     
        });
  });
}

app.get("/",function(req,res){-
        handle_database(req,res);
});

app.listen(3000);
