Package Exports

oracledb

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (oracledb) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Example: Simple SELECT statement implementation in node-oracledb

var oracledb = require('oracledb');

oracledb.getConnection(
  {
    user          : "hr",
    password      : "welcome",
    connectString : "localhost/XE"
  },
  function(err, connection)
  {
    if (err) {
      console.error(err.message);
      return;
    }
    connection.execute(
      "SELECT department_id, department_name "
    + "FROM departments "
    + "WHERE department_id = :did",
      [180],
      function(err, result)
      {
        if (err) {
          console.error(err.message);
          return;
        }
        console.log(result.rows);
      });
  });

With Oracle's sample HR schema, the output is:

[ [ 180, 'Construction' ] ]

There are more examples in the examples directory.
