node-jdbc-connection

A simple node.js wrapper around a Java application that provides easy access to databases via jdbc. The main goal is to allow easy installation without the requirements of installing and configuring odbc or freetds. You do however have to have java 1.5 or newer installed. (rewrite from https://github.com/moononournation/node-sybase-charset-tz.git)

requirements

java 1.8+

install

git

git clone https://github.com/moononournation/node-jdbc-connection.git
cd node-jdbc-connection
node-gyp configure build

npm

npm install node-jdbc-connection

quick example

charset: Please refer to [Sybase webpage] for supported charset. Please use the value in "JDK byte converter" column
timezone: Please refer to [Wiki] for supported TZ database name, empty string means no timezone information in datetime string format

var NodeJdbcConnection = require('node-jdbc-connection'),
	jdbc = new NodeJdbcConnection();

jdbc.connect(
  // 'jdbc:sybase:Tds:host:port/db', // connect to Sybase DB server connect with JConnect Type 4 Driver
  // 'jdbc:jtds:sybase://host:port/db;charset=Big5_HKSCS', // connect to Sybase DB server connect with jTDS Driver
  // 'jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://host:port/db;charset=Big5_HKSCS', // connect to MS SQL DB server connect with jTDS Driver
  'connectionString',
  'username',
  'password',
  'timezone',
  function (dbId, err) {
  if (err) return console.log(err);

  console.log("Connected.");

  jdbc.query(dbId, 'select * from user where user_id = 42', function (dbId, err, result) {
    if (err) console.log(err);
    
    console.log(result);

    jdbc.close(dbId, function (dbId, err) {
      if (err) console.log(err);

      console.log("Connection closed.");
    });
  });
});

The java Bridge now optionally looks for a "sybaseConfig.properties" file in which you can configure jconnect properties to be included in the connection. This should allow setting properties like:

ENCRYPT_PASSWORD=true
