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.
