Ryan Graham a798377f98 test: skip cardinality, update sub_part Index cardinality is actually a metric that is based on MySQL analyzing the table contents, so its value here has more to do with whether the tests are running against a new table, an old table, or whether it has any data in it. The Sub_part field is similarly unimportant for the purposes of these tests since it refers to indexing internals based on data type and partial indexing.

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.

Setup dependencies in package.json:

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

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.
