node-mssql

Microsoft SQL Server client for Node.js

Supported TDS drivers:

Tedious (pure JavaScript - Windows/macOS/Linux, default)
Microsoft / Contributors Node V8 Driver for Node.js for SQL Server (native - Windows only)

Installation

npm install mssql

Quick Example

const sql = require('mssql')

async () => {
    try {
        // make sure that any items are correctly URL encoded in the connection string
        await sql.connect('mssql://username:password@localhost/database')
        const result = await sql.query`select * from mytable where id = ${value}`
        console.dir(result)
    } catch (err) {
        // ... error checks
    }
}

If you're on Windows Azure, add ?encrypt=true to your connection string. See docs to learn more.

Parts of the connection URI should be correctly URL encoded so that the URI can be parsed correctly.

Documentation

Examples

Config

const config = {
    user: '...',
    password: '...',
    server: 'localhost', // You can use 'localhost\\instance' to connect to named instance
    database: '...',
}

Async/Await

const sql = require('mssql')

(async function () {
    try {
        let pool = await sql.connect(config)
        let result1 = await pool.request()
            .input('input_parameter', sql.Int, value)
            .query('select * from mytable where id = @input_parameter')
            
        console.dir(result1)
    
        // Stored procedure
        
        let result2 = await pool.request()
            .input('input_parameter', sql.Int, value)
            .output('output_parameter', sql.VarChar(50))
            .execute('procedure_name')
        
        console.dir(result2)
    } catch (err) {
        // ... error checks
    }
})()

sql.on('error', err => {
    // ... error handler
})

Promises

Queries

const sql = require('mssql')

sql.on('error', err => {
    // ... error handler
})

sql.connect(config).then(pool => {
    // Query
    
    return pool.request()
        .input('input_parameter', sql.Int, value)
        .query('select * from mytable where id = @input_parameter')
}).then(result => {
    console.dir(result)
}).catch(err => {
  // ... error checks
});

Stored procedures

const sql = require('mssql')

sql.on('error', err => {
    // ... error handler
})

sql.connect(config).then(pool => {
    
    // Stored procedure
    
    return pool.request()
        .input('input_parameter', sql.Int, value)
        .output('output_parameter', sql.VarChar(50))
        .execute('procedure_name')
}).then(result => {
    console.dir(result)
}).catch(err => {
    // ... error checks
})

Native Promise is used by default. You can easily change this with sql.Promise = require('myownpromisepackage').

ES6 Tagged template literals

const sql = require('mssql')

sql.connect(config).then(() => {
    return sql.query`select * from mytable where id = ${value}`
}).then(result => {
    console.dir(result)
}).catch(err => {
    // ... error checks
})

sql.on('error', err => {
    // ... error handler
})

All values are automatically sanitized against sql injection. This is because it is rendered as prepared statement, and thus all limitations imposed in MS SQL on parameters apply. e.g. Column names cannot be passed/set in statements using variables.

Callbacks

const sql = require('mssql')

sql.connect(config, err => {
    // ... error checks

    // Query

    new sql.Request().query('select 1 as number', (err, result) => {
        // ... error checks

        console.dir(result)
    })

    // Stored Procedure

    new sql.Request()
    .input('input_parameter', sql.Int, value)
    .output('output_parameter', sql.VarChar(50))
    .execute('procedure_name', (err, result) => {
        // ... error checks

        console.dir(result)
    })
})

sql.on('error', err => {
    // ... error handler
})

Streaming

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.

const sql = require('mssql')

sql.connect(config, err => {
    // ... error checks

    const 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', columns => {
        // Emitted once for each recordset in a query
    })

    request.on('row', row => {
        // Emitted for each row in a recordset
    })

    request.on('error', err => {
        // May be emitted multiple times
    })

    request.on('done', result => {
        // Always emitted as the last one
    })
})

sql.on('error', err => {
    // ... error handler
})

When streaming large sets of data you want to back-off or chunk the amount of data you're processing to prevent memory exhaustion issues; you can use the Request.pause() function to do this. Here is an example of managing rows in batches of 15:

let rowsToProcess = [];
request.on('row', row => {
  rowsToProcess.push(row);
  if (rowsToProcess.length >= 15) {
    request.pause();
    processRows();
  }
});
request.on('done', () => {
    processRows();
});

function processRows() {
  // process rows
  rowsToProcess = [];
  request.resume();
}

Connection Pools

Using a single connection pool for your application/service is recommended. Instantiating a pool with a callback, or immediately calling .connect, is asynchronous to ensure a connection can be established before returning. From that point, you're able to acquire connections as normal:

const sql = require('mssql')

// async/await style:
const pool1 = new sql.ConnectionPool(config);
const pool1Connect = pool1.connect();

pool1.on('error', err => {
    // ... error handler
})

async function messageHandler() {
    await pool1Connect; // ensures that the pool has been created
    try {
    	const request = pool1.request(); // or: new sql.Request(pool1)
    	const result = request.query('select 1 as number')
    	console.dir(result)
    	return result;
	} catch (err) {
        console.error('SQL error', err);
	}
}

// promise style:
const pool2 = new sql.ConnectionPool(config)
const pool2Connect = pool2.connect()

pool2.on('error', err => {
    // ... error handler
})

function runStoredProcedure() {
    return pool2Connect.then((pool) => {
		pool.request() // or: new sql.Request(pool2)
		.input('input_parameter', sql.Int, 10)
		.output('output_parameter', sql.VarChar(50))
		.execute('procedure_name', (err, result) => {
			// ... error checks
			console.dir(result)
		})
    }).catch(err => {
        // ... error handler
    })
}

Awaiting or .thening the pool creation is a safe way to ensure that the pool is always ready, without knowing where it is needed first. In practice, once the pool is created then there will be no delay for the next operation.

ES6 Tagged template literals

new sql.ConnectionPool(config).connect().then(pool => {
    return pool.query`select * from mytable where id = ${value}`
}).then(result => {
    console.dir(result)
}).catch(err => {
    // ... error checks
})

All values are automatically sanitized against sql injection.

Configuration

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

General (same for all drivers)

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). NOTE: msnodesqlv8 driver doesn't support timeouts < 1 second. When passed via connection string, the key must be request timeout
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.
parseJSON - Parse JSON recordsets to JS objects (default: false). For more information please see section JSON support.
pool.max - The maximum number of connections there can be in the pool (default: 10).
pool.min - The minimum of connections there can be in the pool (default: 0).
pool.idleTimeoutMillis - The Number of milliseconds before closing an unused connection (default: 30000).

Complete list of pool options can be found here.

Formats

In addition to configuration object there is an option to pass config as a connection string. Two formats of connection string are supported.

Classic Connection String

Server=localhost,1433;Database=database;User Id=username;Password=password;Encrypt=true
Driver=msnodesqlv8;Server=(local)\INSTANCE;Database=database;UID=DOMAIN\username;PWD=password;Encrypt=true

Connection String URI

mssql://username:password@localhost:1433/database?encrypt=true
mssql://username:password@localhost/INSTANCE/database?encrypt=true&domain=DOMAIN&driver=msnodesqlv8

Drivers

Tedious

Default driver, actively maintained and production ready. Platform independent, runs everywhere Node.js runs. Officially supported by Microsoft.

Extra options:

beforeConnect(conn) - Function, which is invoked before opening the connection. The parameter conn is the configured tedious Connection. It can be used for attaching event handlers like in this example:
```
require('mssql').connect(...config, beforeConnect: conn => {
conn.once('connect', err => { err ? console.error(err) : console.log('mssql connected')})
conn.once('end', err => { err ? console.error(err) : console.log('mssql disconnected')})
}})
```
- options.instanceName - The instance name to connect to. The SQL Server Browser service must be running on the database server, and UDP port 1434 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: true).
- 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.
- options.abortTransactionOnError - A boolean determining whether to rollback a transaction automatically if any error is encountered during the given transaction's execution. This sets the value for XACT_ABORT during the initial SQL phase of a connection.
More information about Tedious specific options: http://tediousjs.github.io/tedious/api-connection.html

Microsoft / Contributors Node V8 Driver for Node.js for SQL Server

Requires Node.js 0.12.x or newer. Windows only. This driver is not part of the default package and must be installed separately by npm install msnodesqlv8. To use this driver, use this require syntax: const sql = require('mssql/msnodesqlv8').

Extra options:
- beforeConnect(conn) - Function, which is invoked before opening the connection. The parameter conn is the connection configuration, that can be modified to pass extra parameters to the driver's open() method.
- connectionString - Connection string (default: see below).
- 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.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}};


## Connections

Internally, each `ConnectionPool` instance is a separate pool of TDS connections. Once you create a new `Request`/`Transaction`/`Prepared Statement`, a new TDS connection is acquired from the pool and reserved for desired action. Once the action is complete, connection is released back to the pool. Connection health check is built-in so once the dead connection is discovered, it is immediately replaced with a new one.

**IMPORTANT**: Always attach an `error` listener to created connection. Whenever something goes wrong with the connection it will emit an error and if there is no listener it will crash your application with an uncaught error.

```javascript
const pool = new sql.ConnectionPool({ /* config */ })

Events

error(err) - Dispatched on connection error.

connect ([callback])

Create a new connection pool. The initial probe connection is created to find out whether the configuration is valid.

Arguments

callback(err) - A callback which is called after initial probe connection has established, or an error has occurred. Optional. If omitted, returns Promise.

Example

const pool = new sql.ConnectionPool({
    user: '...',
    password: '...',
    server: 'localhost',
    database: '...'
})

pool.connect(err => {
    // ...
})

Errors

ELOGIN (ConnectionError) - Login failed.
ETIMEOUT (ConnectionError) - Connection timeout.

ESOCKET (ConnectionError) - Socket error.

close()

Close all active connections in the pool.

Example

pool.close()

Request

const request = new sql.Request(/* [pool or transaction] */)

If you omit pool/transaction argument, global pool is used instead.

Events

recordset(columns) - Dispatched when metadata for new recordset are parsed.
row(row) - Dispatched when new row is parsed.
done(returnValue) - Dispatched when request is complete.
error(err) - Dispatched on error.
info(message) - Dispatched on informational message.

execute (procedure, [callback])

Call a stored procedure.

Arguments

procedure - Name of the stored procedure to be executed.
callback(err, recordsets, returnValue) - A callback which is called after execution has completed, or an error has occurred. returnValue is also accessible as property of recordsets. Optional. If omitted, returns Promise.

Example

const request = new sql.Request()
request.input('input_parameter', sql.Int, value)
request.output('output_parameter', sql.Int)
request.execute('procedure_name', (err, result) => {
    // ... error checks

    console.log(result.recordsets.length) // count of recordsets returned by the procedure
    console.log(result.recordsets[0].length) // count of rows contained in first recordset
    console.log(result.recordset) // first recordset from result.recordsets
    console.log(result.returnValue) // procedure return value
    console.log(result.output) // key/value collection of output values
    console.log(result.rowsAffected) // array of numbers, each number represents the number of rows affected by executed statemens

    // ...
})

EABORT (TransactionError) - Transaction was aborted (by user or because of an error).

input (name, [type], value)

Add an input parameter to the request.

Arguments

name - Name of the input parameter without @ char.
type - SQL data type of input parameter. If you omit type, module automatically decide which SQL data type should be used based on JS data type.
value - Input parameter value. undefined ans NaN values are automatically converted to null values.

Example

request.input('input_parameter', value)
request.input('input_parameter', sql.Int, value)

JS Data Type To SQL Data Type Map

String -> sql.NVarChar
Number -> sql.Int
Boolean -> sql.Bit
Date -> sql.DateTime
Buffer -> sql.VarBinary
sql.Table -> sql.TVP

Default data type for unknown object is sql.NVarChar.

You can define your own type map.

sql.map.register(MyClass, sql.Text)

You can also overwrite the default type map.

sql.map.register(Number, sql.BigInt)

Errors (synchronous)

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

NB: Do not use parameters @p{n} as these are used by the internal drivers and cause a conflict.

output (name, type, [value])

Add an output parameter to the request.

Arguments

name - Name of the output parameter without @ char.
type - SQL data type of output parameter.
value - Output parameter value initial value. undefined and NaN values are automatically converted to null values. Optional.

Example

request.output('output_parameter', sql.Int)
request.output('output_parameter', sql.VarChar(50), 'abc')

Errors (synchronous)

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

pipe (stream)

Sets request to stream mode and pulls all rows from all recordsets to a given stream.

Arguments

stream - Writable stream in object mode.

Example

const request = new sql.Request()
request.pipe(stream)
request.query('select * from mytable')
stream.on('error', err => {
    // ...
})
stream.on('finish', () => {
    // ...
})

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. Optional. If omitted, returns Promise.

Example

const request = new sql.Request()
request.query('select 1 as number', (err, result) => {
    // ... error checks

    console.log(result.recordset[0].number) // return 1

    // ...
})

Errors

ETIMEOUT (RequestError) - Request timeout.
EREQUEST (RequestError) - Message from SQL Server
ECANCEL (RequestError) - Cancelled.
ENOCONN (RequestError) - No connection is specified for that request.
ENOTOPEN (ConnectionError) - Connection not yet open.
ECONNCLOSED (ConnectionError) - Connection is closed.
ENOTBEGUN (TransactionError) - Transaction has not begun.
EABORT (TransactionError) - Transaction was aborted (by user or because of an error).

    // ... error checks

    console.log(result.recordset[0].number) // return 1
    console.log(result.recordsets[0][0].number) // return 1
    console.log(result.recordsets[1][0].number) // return 2
})

NOTE: To get number of rows affected by the statement(s), see section Affected Rows.

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. Optional. If omitted, returns Promise.

Example

const request = new sql.Request()
request.batch('create procedure #temporary as select * from table', (err, result) => {
    // ... error checks
})

Errors

ETIMEOUT (RequestError) - Request timeout.
EREQUEST (RequestError) - Message from SQL Server
ECANCEL (RequestError) - Cancelled.
ENOCONN (RequestError) - No connection is specified for that request.
ENOTOPEN (ConnectionError) - Connection not yet open.
ECONNCLOSED (ConnectionError) - Connection is closed.
ENOTBEGUN (TransactionError) - Transaction has not begun.
EABORT (TransactionError) - Transaction was aborted (by user or because of an error).

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

bulk (table, [options,] [callback])

Perform a bulk insert.

Arguments

table - sql.Table instance.
options - Options object to be passed through to driver (currently tedious only). Optional. If argument is a function it will be treated as the callback.
callback(err, rowCount) - A callback which is called after bulk insert has completed, or an error has occurred. Optional. If omitted, returns Promise.

Example

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

const request = new sql.Request()
request.bulk(table, (err, result) => {
    // ... 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. You can specify primary key columns by setting primary: true to column's options. Primary key constraint on multiple columns is supported.

TIP: You can also create Table variable from any recordset with recordset.toTable(). You can optionally specify table type name in the first argument.

Errors

ENAME (RequestError) - Table name must be specified for bulk insert.
ETIMEOUT (RequestError) - Request timeout.
EREQUEST (RequestError) - Message from SQL Server
ECANCEL (RequestError) - Cancelled.
ENOCONN (RequestError) - No connection is specified for that request.
ENOTOPEN (ConnectionError) - Connection not yet open.
ECONNCLOSED (ConnectionError) - Connection is closed.
ENOTBEGUN (TransactionError) - Transaction has not begun.
EABORT (TransactionError) - Transaction was aborted (by user or because of an error).

cancel()

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

Example

const request = new sql.Request()
request.query('waitfor delay \'00:00:05\'; select 1 as number', (err, result) => {
    console.log(err instanceof sql.RequestError)  // true
    console.log(err.message)                      // Cancelled.
    console.log(err.code)                         // ECANCEL

    // ...
})

request.cancel()

Transaction

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. After you call commit or rollback, connection is then released back to the connection pool.

const transaction = new sql.Transaction(/* [pool] */)

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

Example

const transaction = new sql.Transaction(/* [pool] */)
transaction.begin(err => {
    // ... error checks

    const request = new sql.Request(transaction)
    request.query('insert into mytable (mycolumn) values (12345)', (err, result) => {
        // ... error checks

        transaction.commit(err => {
            // ... error checks

            console.log("Transaction committed.")
        })
    })
})

Transaction can also be created by const transaction = pool.transaction(). Requests can also be created by const request = transaction.request().

Aborted transactions

This example shows how you should correctly handle transaction errors when abortTransactionOnError (XACT_ABORT) is enabled. Added in 2.0.

const transaction = new sql.Transaction(/* [pool] */)
transaction.begin(err => {
    // ... error checks

    let rolledBack = false

    transaction.on('rollback', aborted => {
        // emited with aborted === true

        rolledBack = true
    })

    new sql.Request(transaction)
    .query('insert into mytable (bitcolumn) values (2)', (err, result) => {
        // insert should fail because of invalid value

        if (err) {
            if (!rolledBack) {
                transaction.rollback(err => {
                    // ... error checks
                })
            }
        } else {
            transaction.commit(err => {
                // ... error checks
            })
        }
    })
})

Events

begin - Dispatched when transaction begin.
commit - Dispatched on successful commit.
rollback(aborted) - Dispatched on successful rollback with an argument determining if the transaction was aborted (by user or because of an error).

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. If omitted, returns Promise.

Example

const transaction = new sql.Transaction()
transaction.begin(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. If omitted, returns Promise.

Example

const transaction = new sql.Transaction()
transaction.begin(err => {
    // ... error checks

    transaction.commit(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. If the queue isn't empty, all queued requests will be Cancelled and the transaction will be marked as aborted.

Arguments

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

Example

const transaction = new sql.Transaction()
transaction.begin(err => {
    // ... error checks

    transaction.rollback(err => {
        // ... error checks
    })
})

Errors

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

Prepared Statement

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 acquired from the connection pool and all subsequent executions are executed exclusively on this connection. After you call unprepare, the connection is then released back to the connection pool.

const ps = new sql.PreparedStatement(/* [pool] */)

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

Example

const ps = new sql.PreparedStatement(/* [pool] */)
ps.input('param', sql.Int)
ps.prepare('select @param as value', err => {
    // ... error checks

    ps.execute({param: 12345}, (err, result) => {
        // ... error checks

        // release the connection after queries are executed
        ps.unprepare(err => {
            // ... error checks

        })
    })
})

IMPORTANT: Remember that each prepared statement means one reserved connection from the pool. Don't forget to unprepare a prepared statement when you've finished your queries!

You can execute multiple queries against the same prepared statement but you must unprepare the statement when you have finished using it otherwise you will cause the connection pool to run out of available connections.

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

ps.input('input_parameter', sql.Int)
ps.input('input_parameter', sql.VarChar(50))

Errors (synchronous)

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

output (name, type)

Add an output parameter to the prepared statement.

Arguments

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

Example

ps.output('output_parameter', sql.Int)
ps.output('output_parameter', sql.VarChar(50))

Errors (synchronous)

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

prepare (statement, [callback])

Prepare a statement.

Arguments

statement - T-SQL statement to prepare.
callback(err) - A callback which is called after preparation has completed, or an error has occurred. Optional. If omitted, returns Promise.

Example

const ps = new sql.PreparedStatement()
ps.prepare('select @param as value', err => {
    // ... error checks
})

Errors

ENOTOPEN (ConnectionError) - Connection not yet open.
EALREADYPREPARED (PreparedStatementError) - Statement is already prepared.
ENOTBEGUN (TransactionError) - Transaction has not begun.

execute (values, [callback])

Execute a prepared statement.

Arguments

values - An object whose names correspond to the names of parameters that were added to the prepared statement before it was prepared.
callback(err) - A callback which is called after execution has completed, or an error has occurred. Optional. If omitted, returns Promise.

Example

const ps = new sql.PreparedStatement()
ps.input('param', sql.Int)
ps.prepare('select @param as value', err => {
    // ... error checks

    ps.execute({param: 12345}, (err, result) => {
        // ... error checks

        console.log(result.recordset[0].value) // return 12345
        console.log(result.rowsAffected) // Returns number of affected rows in case of INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE statement.
        
        ps.unprepare(err => {
            // ... error checks
        })
    })
})

You can also stream executed request.

const ps = new sql.PreparedStatement()
ps.input('param', sql.Int)
ps.prepare('select @param as value', err => {
    // ... error checks

    ps.stream = true
    const request = ps.execute({param: 12345})

    request.on('recordset', columns => {
        // Emitted once for each recordset in a query
    })

    request.on('row', row => {
        // Emitted for each row in a recordset
    })

    request.on('error', err => {
        // May be emitted multiple times
    })

    request.on('done', result => {
        // Always emitted as the last one
        
        console.log(result.rowsAffected) // Returns number of affected rows in case of INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE statement.
        
        ps.unprepare(err => {
            // ... error checks
        })
    })
})

TIP: To learn more about how number of affected rows works, see section Affected Rows.

    })
})

Errors

CLI

Before you can start using CLI, you must install mssql globally with npm install mssql -g. Once you do that you will be able to execute mssql command.

Setup

Create a .mssql.json configuration file (anywhere). Structure of the file is the same as the standard configuration object.

{
    "user": "...",
    "password": "...",
    "server": "localhost",
    "database": "..."
}

Example

echo "select * from mytable" | mssql /path/to/config

Results in:

[[{"username":"patriksimek","password":"tooeasy"}]]

You can also query for multiple recordsets.

echo "select * from mytable; select * from myothertable" | mssql

Results in:

[[{"username":"patriksimek","password":"tooeasy"}],[{"id":15,"name":"Product name"}]]

If you omit config path argument, mssql will try to load it from current working directory.

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.

const tvp = new sql.Table() // You can optionally specify table type name in the first argument.

// 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.

const request = new sql.Request()
request.input('tvp', tvp)
request.execute('MyCustomStoredProcedure', (err, result) => {
    // ... error checks

    console.dir(result.recordsets[0][0]) // {a: 'hello tvp', b: 777}
})

TIP: You can also create Table variable from any recordset with recordset.toTable(). You can optionally specify table type name in the first argument.

Affected Rows

If you're performing INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE in a query, you can read number of affected rows. The rowsAffected variable is an array of numbers. Each number represents number of affected rows by a single statement.

Example using Promises

const request = new sql.Request()
request.query('update myAwesomeTable set awesomness = 100').then(result => {
    console.log(result.rowsAffected)
})

Example using callbacks

const request = new sql.Request()
request.query('update myAwesomeTable set awesomness = 100', (err, result) => {
    console.log(result.rowsAffected)
})

Example using streaming

const request = new sql.Request()
request.stream = true
request.query('update myAwesomeTable set awesomness = 100')
request.on('done', result => {
    console.log(result.rowsAffected)
})

JSON support

SQL Server 2016 introduced built-in JSON serialization. By default, JSON is returned as a plain text in a special column named JSON_F52E2B61-18A1-11d1-B105-00805F49916B.

Example

SELECT
    1 AS 'a.b.c',
    2 AS 'a.b.d',
    3 AS 'a.x',
    4 AS 'a.y'
FOR JSON PATH

Results in:

recordset = [ { 'JSON_F52E2B61-18A1-11d1-B105-00805F49916B': '{"a":{"b":{"c":1,"d":2},"x":3,"y":4}}' } ]

You can enable built-in JSON parser with config.parseJSON = true. Once you enable this, recordset will contain rows of parsed JS objects. Given the same example, result will look like this:

recordset = [ { a: { b: { c: 1, d: 2 }, x: 3, y: 4 } } ]

IMPORTANT: In order for this to work, there must be exactly one column named JSON_F52E2B61-18A1-11d1-B105-00805F49916B in the recordset.

More information about JSON support can be found in official documentation.

Errors

There are 4 types of errors you can handle:

ConnectionError - Errors related to connections and connection pool.
TransactionError - Errors related to creating, committing 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 may 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 name, code and message properties.

Name	Code	Message
`ConnectionError`	ELOGIN	Login failed.
`ConnectionError`	ETIMEOUT	Connection timeout.
`ConnectionError`	EDRIVER	Unknown driver.

Detailed SQL Errors

SQL errors (RequestError with err.code equal to EREQUEST) contains additional details.

err.number - The error number.
err.state - The error state, used as a modifier to the number.
err.class - The class (severity) of the error. A class of less than 10 indicates an informational message. Detailed explanation can be found here.
err.lineNumber - The line number in the SQL batch or stored procedure that caused the error. Line numbers begin at 1; therefore, if the line number is not applicable to the message, the value of LineNumber will be 0.
err.serverName - The server name.
err.procName - The stored procedure name.

Informational messages

To receive informational messages generated by PRINT or RAISERROR commands use:

const request = new sql.Request()
request.on('info', info => {
    console.dir(info)
})
request.query('print \'Hello world.\';', (err, result) => {
    // ...
})

Structure of informational message:

info.message - Message.
info.number - The message number.
info.state - The message state, used as a modifier to the number.
info.class - The class (severity) of the message. Equal or lower than 10. Detailed explanation can be found here.
info.lineNumber - The line number in the SQL batch or stored procedure that generated the message. Line numbers begin at 1; therefore, if the line number is not applicable to the message, the value of LineNumber will be 0.
info.serverName - The server name.
info.procName - The stored procedure name.

Metadata

Recordset metadata are accessible through the recordset.columns property.

const request = new sql.Request()
request.query('select convert(decimal(18, 4), 1) as first, \'asdf\' as second', (err, result) => {
    console.dir(result.recordset.columns)

    console.log(result.recordset.columns.first.type === sql.Decimal) // true
    console.log(result.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,
        nullable: true,
        caseSensitive: false
        identity: false
        readOnly: true
    },
    second: {
        index: 1,
        name: 'second',
        length: 4,
        type: [sql.VarChar],
        nullable: false,
        caseSensitive: false
        identity: false
        readOnly: true
    }
}

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.UDT
sql.Geography
sql.Geometry

To setup MAX length for VarChar, NVarChar and VarBinary use sql.MAX length. Types sql.XML and sql.Variant are not supported as input parameters.

SQL injection

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

const request = new sql.Request()
request.input('myval', sql.VarChar, '-- commented')
request.query('select @myval as myval', (err, result) => {
    console.dir(result)
})

Known issues

Tedious

If you're facing problems with connecting SQL Server 2000, try setting the default TDS version to 7.1 with config.options.tdsVersion = '7_1' (issue)
If you're executing a statement longer than 4000 chars on SQL Server 2000, always use batch instead of query (issue)

msnodesqlv8

msnodesqlv8 has problem with errors during transactions - reported.
msnodesqlv8 doesn't support detailed SQL errors.

4.x to 5.x changes

Moved pool library from node-pool to tarn.js
ConnectionPool.pool.size deprecated, use ConnectionPool.size instead
ConnectionPool.pool.available deprecated, use ConnectionPool.available instead
ConnectionPool.pool.pending deprecated, use ConnectionPool.pending instead
ConnectionPool.pool.borrowed deprecated, use ConnectionPool.borrowed instead

3.x to 4.x changes

Library & tests are rewritten to ES6.
Connection was renamed to ConnectionPool.
Drivers are no longer loaded dynamically so the library is now compatible with Webpack. To use msnodesqlv8 driver, use const sql = require('mssql/msnodesqlv8') syntax.
Every callback/resolve now returns result object only. This object contains recordsets (array of recordsets), recordset (first recordset from array of recordsets), rowsAffected (array of numbers representig number of affected rows by each insert/update/delete statement) and output (key/value collection of output parameters' values).
Affected rows are now returned as an array. A separate number for each SQL statement.
Directive multiple: true was removed.
Transaction and PreparedStatement internal queues was removed.
ConnectionPool no longer emits connect and close events.
Removed verbose and debug mode.
Removed support for tds and msnodesql drivers.
Removed support for Node versions lower than 4.
