mariadb¶

This page explains how to use ts-sql-query with the mariadb driver. It covers two approaches: using a connection pool or using a single connection directly.

Supported databases

Tested with

mariadb ^3.5.2

This information reflects the driver version pinned in this project's devDependencies and exercised by the CI suite. Other compatible versions may work but are not actively tested.

Do not share connections between requests

A ts-sql-query connection object — along with the query runner instances passed to its constructor — represents a dedicated connection to the database.

Therefore, you must not share the same connection object between concurrent HTTP requests. Instead, create a new connection object for each request, along with its own query runners.

Even if the query runner internally uses a connection pool, the ts-sql-query connection still represents a single active connection, acquired from the pool. It must be treated as such and never reused across requests.

Using a connection pool¶

Enables executing queries through a mariadb connection obtained from a pool.

import { createPool } from "mariadb";
import { MariaDBPoolQueryRunner } from "ts-sql-query/queryRunners/MariaDBPoolQueryRunner";

const pool = createPool({
    host: 'mydb.com', 
    user: 'myUser', 
    password: 'myPwd',
    database: 'myDB',
    connectionLimit: 5
});

async function main() {
    const connection = new DBConnection(new MariaDBPoolQueryRunner(pool));
    // Do your queries here
    connection // ...
}

Using a single connection¶

Enables executing queries through a dedicated mariadb connection.

import { createPool } from "mariadb";
import { MariaDBQueryRunner } from "ts-sql-query/queryRunners/MariaDBQueryRunner";

const pool = createPool({
    host: 'mydb.com', 
    user: 'myUser', 
    password: 'myPwd',
    database: 'myDB',
    connectionLimit: 5
});

async function main() {
    const mariaDBConnection = await pool.getConnection();
    try {
        const connection = new DBConnection(new MariaDBQueryRunner(mariaDBConnection));
        // Do your queries here
        connection // ...
    } finally {
        mariaDBConnection.release();
    }
}
