node-mssql

An easy-to-use MSSQL database connector for Node.js.

There are some TDS modules which offer functionality to communicate with MSSQL databases but none of them does offer enough comfort - implementation takes a lot of lines of code. So I decided to create this module, that make work as easy as it could without losing any important functionality. node-mssql uses other TDS modules as drivers and offer easy to use unified interface. It also add extra features and bug fixes.

There is also co wrapper available - co-mssql.
If you're looking for session store for connect/express, visit connect-mssql.

Extra features:

Unified interface for multiple MSSQL modules
Connection pooling with Transactions and Prepared statements
Parametrized Stored Procedures in node-tds and Microsoft Driver for Node.js for SQL Server
Serialization of Geography and Geometry CLR types
Injects original TDS modules with enhancements and bug fixes

At the moment it support three TDS modules:

Tedious by Mike D Pilsbury (pure javascript - windows/osx/linux)
Microsoft Driver for Node.js for SQL Server by Microsoft Corporation (native - windows only)
node-tds by Chad Retz (pure javascript - windows/osx/linux)

What's new in 1.3.x (stable, npm)

Updated to latest Tedious 1.7.x
Tedious: Char and NChar types are now available as input parameters

Installation

npm install mssql

Quick Example

var sql = require('mssql'); 

var config = {
    user: '...',
    password: '...',
    server: 'localhost', // You can use 'localhost\\instance' to connect to named instance
    database: '...',
    
    options: {
        encrypt: true // Use this if you're on Windows Azure
    }
}

var connection = new sql.Connection(config, function(err) {
    // ... error checks
    
    // Query
	
    var request = new sql.Request(connection); // or: var request = connection.request();
    request.query('select 1 as number', function(err, recordset) {
        // ... error checks
        
        console.dir(recordset);
    });
	
    // Stored Procedure
	
    var request = new sql.Request(connection);
    request.input('input_parameter', sql.Int, 10);
    request.output('output_parameter', sql.VarChar(50));
    request.execute('procedure_name', function(err, recordsets, returnValue) {
        // ... error checks
        
        console.dir(recordsets);
    });
	
});

Quick Example with one global connection

var sql = require('mssql'); 

var config = {
    user: '...',
    password: '...',
    server: 'localhost', // You can use 'localhost\\instance' to connect to named instance
    database: '...',
    
    options: {
        encrypt: true // Use this if you're on Windows Azure
    }
}

sql.connect(config, function(err) {
    // ... error checks
	
    // Query
	
    var request = new sql.Request();
    request.query('select 1 as number', function(err, recordset) {
        // ... error checks

        console.dir(recordset);
    });
	
    // Stored Procedure
	
    var request = new sql.Request();
    request.input('input_parameter', sql.Int, value);
    request.output('output_parameter', sql.VarChar(50));
    request.execute('procedure_name', function(err, recordsets, returnValue) {
        // ... error checks

        console.dir(recordsets);
    });
	
});

Streaming example with one global connection

If you plan to work with large amount of rows, you should always use streaming. Once you enable this, you must listen for events to receive data.

var sql = require('mssql'); 

var config = {
    user: '...',
    password: '...',
    server: 'localhost', // You can use 'localhost\\instance' to connect to named instance
    database: '...',
    stream: true, // You can enable streaming globally
    
    options: {
        encrypt: true // Use this if you're on Windows Azure
    }
}

sql.connect(config, function(err) {
    // ... error checks
	
    var request = new sql.Request();
    request.stream = true; // You can set streaming differently for each request
    request.query('select * from verylargetable'); // or request.execute(procedure);
    
    request.on('recordset', function(columns) {
    	// Emitted once for each recordset in a query
    });
    
    request.on('row', function(row) {
    	// Emitted for each row in a recordset
    });
    
    request.on('error', function(err) {
    	// May be emitted multiple times
    });
    
    request.on('done', function(returnValue) {
    	// Always emitted as the last one
    });
});

Documentation

Configuration

var config = {
    user: '...',
    password: '...',
    server: 'localhost',
    database: '...',
    pool: {
        max: 10,
        min: 0,
        idleTimeoutMillis: 30000
    }
}

Basic configuration is same for all drivers.

driver - Driver to use (default: tedious). Possible values: tedious, msnodesql or tds.
user - User name to use for authentication.
password - Password to use for authentication.
server - Server to connect to. You can use 'localhost\instance' to connect to named instance.
port - Port to connect to (default: 1433). Don't set when connecting to named instance.
domain - Once you set domain, driver will connect to SQL Server using domain login.
database - Database to connect to (default: dependent on server configuration).
connectionTimeout - Connection timeout in ms (default: 15000).
requestTimeout - Request timeout in ms (default: 15000).
stream - Stream recordsets/rows instead of returning them all at once as an argument of callback (default: false). You can also enable streaming for each request independently (request.stream = true). Always set to true if you plan to work with large amount of rows.
pool.max - The maximum number of connections there can be in the pool (default: 10).
pool.min - The minimun of connections there can be in the pool (default: 0).
pool.idleTimeoutMillis - The Number of milliseconds before closing an unused connection (default: 30000).

Tedious

options.instanceName - The instance name to connect to. The SQL Server Browser service must be running on the database server, and UDP port 1444 on the database server must be reachable.
options.useUTC - A boolean determining whether or not use UTC time for values without time zone offset (default: true).
options.encrypt - A boolean determining whether or not the connection will be encrypted (default: false) Encryption support is experimental.
options.tdsVersion - The version of TDS to use (default: 7_4, available: 7_1, 7_2, 7_3_A, 7_3_B, 7_4).
options.appName - Application name used for SQL server logging.

More information about Tedious specific options: http://pekim.github.io/tedious/api-connection.html

Microsoft Driver for Node.js for SQL Server

This driver is not part of the default package and must be installed separately by npm install msnodesql. If you are looking for compiled binaries, see node-sqlserver-binary.

options.instanceName - The instance name to connect to. The SQL Server Browser service must be running on the database server, and UDP port 1444 on the database server must be reachable.
connectionString - Connection string (default: see below).
options.trustedConnection - Use Windows Authentication (default: false).
options.useUTC - A boolean determining whether or not to use UTC time for values without time zone offset (default: true).

Default connection string when connecting to port:

Driver={SQL Server Native Client 11.0};Server={#{server},#{port}};Database={#{database}};Uid={#{user}};Pwd={#{password}};Trusted_Connection={#{trusted}};

Default connection string when connecting to named instance:

Driver={SQL Server Native Client 11.0};Server={#{server}\\#{instance}};Database={#{database}};Uid={#{user}};Pwd={#{password}};Trusted_Connection={#{trusted}};

node-tds

This driver is not part of the default package and must be installed separately by npm install tds.

This module update node-tds driver with extra features and bug fixes by overriding some of its internal functions. If you want to disable this, require module with var sql = require('mssql/nofix').

Errors (synchronous)

EARGS (RequestError) - Invalid number of arguments.
EINJECT (RequestError) - SQL injection warning.

query(command, [callback])

Execute the SQL command. To execute commands like create procedure or if you plan to work with local temporary tables, use batch instead.

Arguments

command - T-SQL command to be executed.
callback(err, recordset) - A callback which is called after execution has completed, or an error has occurred.

Example

var request = new sql.Request();
request.query('select 1 as number', function(err, recordset) {
    // ... error checks
    
    console.log(recordset[0].number); // return 1
	
    // ...
});

Errors

ETIMEOUT (RequestError) - Request timeout.
EREQUEST (RequestError) - Message from SQL Server
ECANCEL (RequestError) - Canceled.
ENOCONN (RequestError) - No connection is specified for that request.
ENOTOPEN (ConnectionError) - Connection not yet open.
ENOTBEGUN (TransactionError) - Transaction has not begun.

You can enable multiple recordsets in queries with the request.multiple = true command.

var request = new sql.Request();
request.multiple = true;

request.query('select 1 as number; select 2 as number', function(err, recordsets) {
    // ... error checks
    
    console.log(recordsets[0][0].number); // return 1
    console.log(recordsets[1][0].number); // return 2
});

batch(batch, [callback])

Execute the SQL command. Unlike query, it doesn't use sp_executesql, so is not likely that SQL Server will reuse the execution plan it generates for the SQL. Use this only in special cases, for example when you need to execute commands like create procedure which can't be executed with query or if you're executing statements longer than 4000 chars on SQL Server 2000. Also you should use this if you're plan to work with local temporary tables (more information here).

NOTE: Table-Valued Parameter (TVP) is not supported in batch.

Arguments

batch - T-SQL command to be executed.
callback(err, recordset) - A callback which is called after execution has completed, or an error has occurred.

Example

var request = new sql.Request();
request.batch('create procedure #temporary as select * from table', function(err, recordset) {
    // ... error checks
});

Errors

ETIMEOUT (RequestError) - Request timeout.
EREQUEST (RequestError) - Message from SQL Server
ECANCEL (RequestError) - Canceled.
ENOCONN (RequestError) - No connection is specified for that request.
ENOTOPEN (ConnectionError) - Connection not yet open.
ENOTBEGUN (TransactionError) - Transaction has not begun.

You can enable multiple recordsets in queries with the request.multiple = true command.

bulk(table, [callback])

Perform a bulk insert.

Arguments

table - sql.Table instance.
callback(err, rowCount) - A callback which is called after bulk insert has completed, or an error has occurred.

Example

var table = new sql.Table('table_name'); // or temporary table, e.g. #temptable
table.create = true;
table.columns.add('a', sql.Int, {nullable: true});
table.columns.add('b', sql.VarChar(50), {nullable: false});
table.rows.add(777, 'test');

var request = new sql.Request();
request.bulk(table, function(err, rowCount) {
    // ... error checks
});

IMPORTANT: Always indicate whether the column is nullable or not!

TIP: If you set table.create to true, module will check if the table exists before it start sending data. If it doesn't, it will automatically create it.

TIP: You can also create Table variable from any recordset with recordset.toTable().

Errors

ENAME (RequestError) - Table name must be specified for bulk insert.
ETIMEOUT (RequestError) - Request timeout.
EREQUEST (RequestError) - Message from SQL Server
ECANCEL (RequestError) - Canceled.
ENOCONN (RequestError) - No connection is specified for that request.
ENOTOPEN (ConnectionError) - Connection not yet open.
ENOTBEGUN (TransactionError) - Transaction has not begun.

cancel()

Cancel currently executing request. Return true if cancellation packet was send successfully.

Example

var request = new sql.Request();
request.query('waitfor delay \'00:00:05\'; select 1 as number', function(err, recordset) {
    console.log(err instanceof sql.RequestError);  // true
    console.log(err.message);                      // Canceled.
    console.log(err.code);                         // ECANCEL
	
    // ...
});

request.cancel();

Transactions

Important: always use Transaction class to create transactions - it ensures that all your requests are executed on one connection. Once you call begin, a single connection is acquired from the connection pool and all subsequent requests (initialized with the Transaction object) are executed exclusively on this connection. Transaction also contains a queue to make sure your requests are executed in series. After you call commit or rollback, connection is then released back to the connection pool.

var transaction = new sql.Transaction(/* [connection] */);

If you omit connection argument, global connection is used instead.

Example

var transaction = new sql.Transaction(/* [connection] */);
transaction.begin(function(err) {
    // ... error checks

    var request = new sql.Request(transaction);
    request.query('insert into mytable (mycolumn) values (12345)', function(err, recordset) {
        // ... error checks

        transaction.commit(function(err, recordset) {
            // ... error checks
            
            console.log("Transaction commited.");
        });
    });
});

Transaction can also be created by var transaction = connection.transaction();. Requests can also be created by var request = transaction.request();.

Events

begin - Dispatched when transaction begin.
commit - Dispatched on successful commit.
rollback - Dispatched on successful rollback.

begin([isolationLevel], [callback])

Begin a transaction.

Arguments

isolationLevel - Controls the locking and row versioning behavior of TSQL statements issued by a connection. Optional. READ_COMMITTED by default. For possible values see sql.ISOLATION_LEVEL.
callback(err) - A callback which is called after transaction has began, or an error has occurred. Optional.

Example

var transaction = new sql.Transaction();
transaction.begin(function(err) {
    // ... error checks
});

Errors

ENOTOPEN (ConnectionError) - Connection not yet open.
EALREADYBEGUN (TransactionError) - Transaction has already begun.

commit([callback])

Commit a transaction.

Arguments

callback(err) - A callback which is called after transaction has committed, or an error has occurred. Optional.

Example

var transaction = new sql.Transaction();
transaction.begin(function(err) {
    // ... error checks
    
    transaction.commit(function(err) {
        // ... error checks
    })
});

Errors

ENOTBEGUN (TransactionError) - Transaction has not begun.
EREQINPROG (TransactionError) - Can't commit transaction. There is a request in progress.

rollback([callback])

Rollback a transaction.

Arguments

callback(err) - A callback which is called after transaction has rolled back, or an error has occurred. Optional.

Example

var transaction = new sql.Transaction();
transaction.begin(function(err) {
    // ... error checks
    
    transaction.rollback(function(err) {
        // ... error checks
    })
});

Errors

ENOTBEGUN (TransactionError) - Transaction has not begun.
EREQINPROG (TransactionError) - Can't rollback transaction. There is a request in progress.

PreparedStatement

Important: always use PreparedStatement class to create prepared statements - it ensures that all your executions of prepared statement are executed on one connection. Once you call prepare, a single connection is aquired from the connection pool and all subsequent executions are executed exclusively on this connection. Prepared Statement also contains a queue to make sure your executions are executed in series. After you call unprepare, the connection is then released back to the connection pool.

var ps = new sql.PreparedStatement(/* [connection] */);

If you omit the connection argument, the global connection is used instead.

Example

var ps = new sql.PreparedStatement(/* [connection] */);
ps.input('param', sql.Int);
ps.prepare('select @param as value', function(err) {
    // ... error checks

    ps.execute({param: 12345}, function(err, recordset) {
        // ... error checks

        ps.unprepare(function(err) {
            // ... error checks
            
        });
    });
});

IMPORTANT: Remember that each prepared statement means one reserved connection from the pool. Don't forget to unprepare a prepared statement!

TIP: You can also create prepared statements in transactions (new sql.PreparedStatement(transaction)), but keep in mind you can't execute other requests in the transaction until you call unprepare.

input(name, type)

Add an input parameter to the prepared statement.

Arguments

name - Name of the input parameter without @ char.
type - SQL data type of input parameter.

Example

var ps = new sql.PreparedStatement();
ps.input('param', sql.Int);
ps.prepare('select @param as value', function(err) {
    // ... error checks
    
    ps.execute({param: 12345}, function(err, recordset) {
        // ... error checks
        
        console.log(recordset[0].value); // return 12345
    });
});

You can enable multiple recordsets by ps.multiple = true command.

var ps = new sql.PreparedStatement();
ps.input('param', sql.Int);
ps.prepare('select @param as value', function(err) {
    // ... error checks
    
    ps.multiple = true;
    ps.execute({param: 12345}, function(err, recordsets) {
        // ... error checks
        
        console.log(recordsets[0][0].value); // return 12345
    });
});

You can also stream executed request.

var ps = new sql.PreparedStatement();
ps.input('param', sql.Int);
ps.prepare('select @param as value', function(err) {
    // ... error checks
    
    ps.stream = true;
    request = ps.execute({param: 12345});
    
    request.on('recordset', function(columns) {
    	// Emitted once for each recordset in a query
    });
    
    request.on('row', function(row) {
    	// Emitted for each row in a recordset
    });
    
    request.on('error', function(err) {
    	// May be emitted multiple times
    });
    
    request.on('done', function(returnValue) {
    	// Always emitted as the last one
    });
});

    // ... error checks

    ps.unprepare(function(err) {
        // ... error checks
        
    });
});

Errors

ENOTPREPARED (PreparedStatementError) - Statement is not prepared.

Geography and Geometry

node-mssql has built-in serializer for Geography and Geometry CLR data types.

select geography::STGeomFromText('LINESTRING(-122.360 47.656, -122.343 47.656 )', 4326)
select geometry::STGeomFromText('LINESTRING (100 100 10.3 12, 20 180, 180 180)', 0)

Results in:

{ srid: 4326,
  version: 1,
  points: [ { x: 47.656, y: -122.36 }, { x: 47.656, y: -122.343 } ],
  figures: [ { attribute: 1, pointOffset: 0 } ],
  shapes: [ { parentOffset: -1, figureOffset: 0, type: 2 } ],
  segments: [] }
  
{ srid: 0,
  version: 1,
  points: 
   [ { x: 100, y: 100, z: 10.3, m: 12 },
     { x: 20, y: 180, z: NaN, m: NaN },
     { x: 180, y: 180, z: NaN, m: NaN } ],
  figures: [ { attribute: 1, pointOffset: 0 } ],
  shapes: [ { parentOffset: -1, figureOffset: 0, type: 2 } ],
  segments: [] }

Table-Valued Parameter (TVP)

Supported on SQL Server 2008 and later. You can pass a data table as a parameter to stored procedure. First, we have to create custom type in our database.

CREATE TYPE TestType AS TABLE ( a VARCHAR(50), b INT );

Next we will need a stored procedure.

CREATE PROCEDURE MyCustomStoredProcedure (@tvp TestType readonly) AS SELECT * FROM @tvp

Now let's go back to our Node.js app.

var tvp = new sql.Table()

// Columns must correspond with type we have created in database.
tvp.columns.add('a', sql.VarChar(50));
tvp.columns.add('b', sql.Int);

// Add rows
tvp.rows.add('hello tvp', 777); // Values are in same order as columns.

You can send table as a parameter to stored procedure.

var request = new sql.Request();
request.input('tvp', tvp);
request.execute('MyCustomStoredProcedure', function(err, recordsets, returnValue) {
    // ... error checks
    
    console.dir(recordsets[0][0]); // {a: 'hello tvp', b: 777}
});

TIP: You can also create Table variable from any recordset with recordset.toTable().

Errors

There are three type of errors you can handle:

ConnectionError - Errors related to connections and connection pool.
TransactionError - Errors related to creating, commiting and rolling back transactions.
RequestError - Errors related to queries and stored procedures execution.
PreparedStatementError - Errors related to prepared statements.

Those errors are initialized in node-mssql module and its original stack can be cropped. You can always access original error with err.originalError.

SQL Server may generate more than one error for one request so you can access preceding errors with err.precedingErrors.

Error Codes

Each known error has code property.

Type	Code	Description
`ConnectionError`	ELOGIN	Login failed.
`ConnectionError`	ETIMEOUT	Connection timeout.
`ConnectionError`	EDRIVER	Unknown driver.
`ConnectionError`	EALREADYCONNECTED	Database is already connected!
`ConnectionError`	EALREADYCONNECTING	Already connecting to database!
`ConnectionError`	ENOTOPEN	Connection not yet open.
`ConnectionError`	EINSTLOOKUP	Instance lookup failed.
`ConnectionError`	ESOCKET	Scoket error.
`TransactionError`	ENOTBEGUN	Transaction has not begun.
`TransactionError`	EALREADYBEGUN	Transaction has already begun.
`TransactionError`	EREQINPROG	Can't commit/rollback transaction. There is a request in progress.
`RequestError`	EREQUEST	Message from SQL Server
`RequestError`	ECANCEL	Canceled.
`RequestError`	ETIMEOUT	Request timeout.
`RequestError`	EARGS	Invalid number of arguments.
`RequestError`	EINJECT	SQL injection warning.
`RequestError`	ENOCONN	No connection is specified for that request.
`PreparedStatementError`	EARGS	Invalid number of arguments.
`PreparedStatementError`	EINJECT	SQL injection warning.
`PreparedStatementError`	EALREADYPREPARED	Statement is already prepared.
`PreparedStatementError`	ENOTPREPARED	Statement is not prepared.

Metadata

Recordset metadata are accessible through the recordset.columns property.

var request = new sql.Request();
request.query('select convert(decimal(18, 4), 1) as first, \'asdf\' as second', function(err, recordset) {
    console.dir(recordset.columns);
	
    console.log(recordset.columns.first.type === sql.Decimal); // true
    console.log(recordset.columns.second.type === sql.VarChar); // true
});

Columns structure for example above:

{ first: { index: 0, name: 'first', length: 17, type: [sql.Decimal], scale: 4, precision: 18 },
  second: { index: 1, name: 'second', length: 4, type: [sql.VarChar] } }

Data Types

You can define data types with length/precision/scale:

request.input("name", sql.VarChar, "abc");               // varchar(3)
request.input("name", sql.VarChar(50), "abc");           // varchar(50)
request.input("name", sql.VarChar(sql.MAX), "abc");      // varchar(MAX)
request.output("name", sql.VarChar);                     // varchar(8000)
request.output("name", sql.VarChar, "abc");              // varchar(3)

request.input("name", sql.Decimal, 155.33);              // decimal(18, 0)
request.input("name", sql.Decimal(10), 155.33);          // decimal(10, 0)
request.input("name", sql.Decimal(10, 2), 155.33);       // decimal(10, 2)

request.input("name", sql.DateTime2, new Date());        // datetime2(7)
request.input("name", sql.DateTime2(5), new Date());     // datetime2(5)

List of supported data types:

sql.Bit
sql.BigInt
sql.Decimal ([precision], [scale])
sql.Float
sql.Int
sql.Money
sql.Numeric ([precision], [scale])
sql.SmallInt
sql.SmallMoney
sql.Real
sql.TinyInt

sql.Char ([length])
sql.NChar ([length])
sql.Text
sql.NText
sql.VarChar ([length])
sql.NVarChar ([length])
sql.Xml

sql.Time ([scale])
sql.Date
sql.DateTime
sql.DateTime2 ([scale])
sql.DateTimeOffset ([scale])
sql.SmallDateTime

sql.UniqueIdentifier

sql.Binary
sql.VarBinary ([length])
sql.Image

sql.UDT
sql.Geography
sql.Geometry

To setup MAX length for VarChar, NVarChar and VarBinary use sql.MAX length.

SQL injection

This module has built-in SQL injection protection. Always use parameters to pass sanitized values to your queries.

var request = new sql.Request();
request.input('myval', sql.VarChar, '-- commented');
request.query('select @myval as myval', function(err, recordset) {
    console.dir(recordset);
});

Verbose Mode

You can enable verbose mode by request.verbose = true command.

var request = new sql.Request();
request.verbose = true;
request.input('username', 'patriksimek');
request.input('password', 'dontuseplaintextpassword');
request.input('attempts', 2);
request.execute('my_stored_procedure');

Output for the example above could look similar to this.

---------- sql execute --------
     proc: my_stored_procedure
    input: @username, varchar, patriksimek
    input: @password, varchar, dontuseplaintextpassword
    input: @attempts, bigint, 2
---------- response -----------
{ id: 1,
  username: 'patriksimek',
  password: 'dontuseplaintextpassword',
  email: null,
  language: 'en',
  attempts: 2 }
---------- --------------------
   return: 0
 duration: 5ms
---------- completed ----------
