PostgreSQL for Javascript

This library is a implementation of the PostgreSQL backend/frontend protocol in javascript. It uses the node.js tcp and event libraries. A javascript md5 library is included for servers that require md5 password hashing (this is default).

This library allows for the correct handling of server-side prepared queries.

Nested DB calls will be executed in the order of definition.

Example use

var sys = require("sys");
var pg = require("postgres-pure");

var db = new pg.connect("pgsql://test:12345@localhost:5432/template1");
db.query("SELECT * FROM sometable", function (data) {
    console.log(data);
});
db.close();

Example use of Parameterized Queries

var sys = require("sys");
var pg = require("postgres-pure");

var db = new pg.connect("pgsql://test:12345@localhost:5432/template1");
db.query("SELECT * FROM yourtable WHERE id = ?", 1, function (data) {
    console.log(data);
});
db.close();

Example use of Prepared Queries

var sys = require("sys");
var pg = require("postgres");

var db = new pg.connect("pgsql://test:12345@localhost:5432/template1");
db.prepare("SELECT * FROM yourtable WHERE id = ?", function (stmt) {
    stmt.execute(1, function (rs) {
        console.log(rs[0]);
    });
});
db.close();
