Access SQL Server in [Link]

Learn how to access relational database MS SQL Server 2012 in [Link] application using [Link] in this section.

In order to access MS SQL database, we need to install drivers for it. There are many drivers available for SQL server in NPM. We will use mssql
driver here.

Install Driver
Install mssql driver using npm command, npm install mssql in the command prompt. This will add mssql module folder in node_modules folder in
your [Link] application. This tutorial uses mssql v2.3.1, which is latest version as of now.

After installing the driver, we are ready to access MS SQL server database. We will connect to a local SQLExpress database server and fetch all the
records from Student table in SchoolDB database shown below.

Database Table

Now, create [Link] and write the following code.

[Link]  Copy

var express = require('express');

var app = express();

[Link]('/', function (req, res) {

var sql = require("mssql");

// config for your database

var config = {
user: 'sa',
password: 'mypassword',
server: 'localhost',
database: 'SchoolDB'
};

// connect to your database

[Link](config, function (err) {

if (err) [Link](err);

// create Request object

var request = new [Link]();

// query to the database and get the records

[Link]('select * from Student', function (err, recordset) {

if (err) [Link](err)

// send records as a response

[Link](recordset);

});
});
});

var server = [Link](5000, function () {

[Link]('Server is running..');
});

In the above example, we have imported mssql module and called connect() method to connect with our SchoolDB database. We have passed config
object which includes database information such as userName, password, database server and database name. On successful connection with the
database, use [Link] object to execute query to any database table and fetch the records.

Run the above example using node [Link] command and point your browser to [Link] which displays an array of all students from
Student table.
