About

js-mysql is a set of MySQL UDF (user-defined function) functions to execute JavaScript within an SQL query.

Example

Start MySQL Server using --plugins_dir argument

mysqld --plugin_dir=path/to/plugin/directory

Then add javascript function to MySQL Server

mysql> CREATE FUNCTION javascript RETURNS STRING SONAME "libmysql-js.so";
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0,00 sec)

Then you may use any exported function form script.js file.

//script.js
exports.myJSFunc = function (fname,lname)
{
    return lname.charAt(0)+'.'+fname; 
}
mysql> SELECT javascript("myJSFunc" , FirstName , LastName) FROM Persons;

myJSFunc catch FirstNameand LastName from every row in Persons table and perform a concat operation and return.

Dependencies

js-mysql is build as a shared library ( e.g libmysql-js.so) and link with mysqld and a set of v8 static libraries.

It depends on:

  • v8 a JavaScript Engine developed by Google and used in Chrome and NodeJS.
  • depot_tool build tool used by v8
  • CMake projects generator

Build

First, make sure you have MySQL Server and build toolchain installed. Install CMake tool.

building v8

v8 comes with a seperate build file. use build-v8.sh to build on Mac OSX and Linux. It will run for 15min to 1hour depending on your system configuration and Internet connexion.

building js-mysql

$ git clone https://github.com/ayoubserti/js-mysql.git
$ ./build-v8.sh  
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make

Install

Install js-mysql into usual MySQL Server Plugin directory.

$ make install

will copy libmysql-js.so, icudtl.dat, Loader.js, script.js ,natives_blob.bin and snapshot_blob.bin into /usr/local/mysql/lib/plugin/.

Tools

This repository came with a utility to deploy JS script into MySQL. First you need nodejs/npm installed. Install the utility script

   npm install 
    $ deployjs --help
    Usage: deployJS [options] <filename.js>
           --src               optional; for filename.js
           --help      -h      show this help
           --user      -u      mysql user name or current os user if ommited
           --password  -p      mysql password or prompt for it
           --database  -d      mysql database or test if ommited

Then deploying JS script become straightforward:

    $ deployjs -u root -d test --src script.js -p
    $ Enter password:

You will be prompted to enter MySQL user password.

Tips:

  • the MySQL user need to have right to alter mysql.func table
  • the current system user need write permission on mysql plugin directory
