I assume Firebird was installed from source or from tar.gz and in a linux instance
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v4.6.0/node-v4.6.0.tar.gz tar -zxvf node-v4.6.0.tar.gz cd node-v4.6.* ./configure sudo make installNext is time to install the firebird module (Firebird was installed from source in /opt/firebird2.5.x)
git clone git://github.com/xdenser/node-firebird-libfbclient.git cd node-firebird-lib export PATH=$PATH:/opt/firebird2.5.x/binfbclient/ npm -g install
create firebird db and test table in /tmp/nodedb.fdb with isql or isql-fb
SQL>CREATE DATABASE "localhost:/tmp/nodedb.fdb" user 'SYSDBA' password '*********'; SQL> CREATE TABLE TEST (ID INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, NAME VARCHAR(20)); SQL> create generator gen_test_id; SQL> SET GENERATOR gen_test_id TO 10; SQL> set term !! ; SQL> CREATE TRIGGER TEST_BI FOR TEST CON> ACTIVE BEFORE INSERT POSITION 0 CON> AS CON> BEGIN CON> if (NEW.ID is NULL) then NEW.ID = GEN_ID(GEN_TEST_ID, 1); CON> END!! SQL> set term ; !!
Then write the test.js script to connect to it
you can observe that the id is auto incremented if you run it multiple time
node test.js [ { ID: 5, NAME: 'new one' }, { ID: 11, NAME: 'new one' }, { ID: 12, NAME: 'new one' }, { ID: 13, NAME: 'new one' }, { ID: 14, NAME: 'new one' } ]
also in the name you can put later the
browser or the ip in one of the columns
We build now the version for the web modifying the hello world version adding the firebird database glue
you can run it with
node firebird_example.js
