README.md

loopback-connector-mysql

loopback-connector-mysql is the MySQL connector module for loopback-datasource-juggler.

For complete documentation, see StrongLoop Documentation | MySQL Connector.

Installation

npm install loopback-connector-mysql --save

Basic use

To use it you need loopback-datasource-juggler.

  1. Setup dependencies in package.json:

    {
      ...
      "dependencies": {
        "loopback-datasource-juggler": "latest",
        "loopback-connector-mysql": "latest"
      },
      ...
    }
    
  2. Use:

        var DataSource = require('loopback-datasource-juggler').DataSource;
        var dataSource = new DataSource('mysql', {
            host: 'localhost',
            port: 3306,
            database: 'mydb',
            username: 'myuser',
            password: 'mypass'
        });
    

    You can optionally pass a few additional parameters supported by node-mysql, most particularly password and collation. Collation currently defaults to utf8_general_ci. The collation value will also be used to derive the connection charset.

Running Tests

The tests in this repository are mainly integration tests, meaning you will need to run them using our preconfigured test server.

  1. Ask a core developer for instructions on how to set up test server credentials on your machine
  2. npm test
