install the tds modul manually by copying the tds folder into the node_modules folder (npm coming soon) edit default.js, configure your database connection
module.exports = {
ConnectionString : {
/** database server */
Server:'yourServer',
/** database user's name */
Login: 'yourUser',
/** name of database to connect */
Database: 'yourDatabase',
/** database user's password */
Password: 'yourPassword',
/** database port */
Port: 1433,
/** socket-connection timeout */
Timeout:10000
},
/** number of connections to use in connection pool
0 will disable connection pooling
*/
poolSize: 0,
/** duration of node-pool timeout */
poolIdleTimeout: 30000000,
/** port on that the tds server is listen */
tdsServerPort: 8888
}- open a commad shell
- navigate to your node folder (i.e. "c:\program files\nodejs")
cd node_modulescd tds4node- start the tds server:
node tds_server
normally tds_server listen at port 8888
to test your installation, start your browser and fire a simple request like:
http://localhost:8888/tds?select getdate() as d
on a working system the response of the example request looks like the following JSON data with the actual date:
{
"result": [
{
"colData": [
{
"value": "d",
"precision": null,
"scale": null,
"type": 61
}
],
"rows": [
[
"2012-11-02T16:15:48.716Z"
]
],
"outputParams": [ ],
"returnStatus": null
}
],
"error": {
"sqlErrNo": null,
"message": ""
}
}notice: make sure, that your browser is able to handle http-headers
with 'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=utf-8', for Firefox you can use JSONView
after install you are able to run the tests
- change to your node folder
cd node_modulescd tds4nodenode tds_test
