AlaSQL JavaScript API

Normal ussage:

• alasql(stringWithSQL)
• alasql.compile(stringWithSQL) - Pre compile statements

Please see more info about the alasql object here

SQL driven data insert

    alasql(‘CREATE DATABASE test01’);
    alasql(‘USE test01’);
    alasql(‘CREATE TABLE one (a INT)’);
    alasql(‘INSERT INTO one VALUES (10)’):
    var res = alasql(‘SELECT * FROM one’);

JavaScript driven data insert

    var data = [{a:1}, {a:2}, {a:3}];
    alasql(‘SELECT * FROM ? WHERE a >= ?’, [data, 2]);

    // or
    var db = new alasql.Database();
    db.exec(“select * from one”, function(data) {
        console.log(data.length);
    });

Promises

AlaSQL supports promises with alasql.promise(sql,params) function. It returns a standard A/+ promise:

    alasql.promise('SELECT * FROM test')
    }).then(function(res){
        // Process data
    }).catch(function(err){
        // Process errors
    });

new database

    var db = new alasql.Database(‘mydb’);
    db.exec(‘SELECT * FROM City”);

JavaScript classes as SQL data types

    alasql.fn.Date = Date;
    alasql('CREATE order (orderno INT, orderdate Date)');

NB. Classes are case-sensitive

NEW (like JavaScript ‘new’ operator)

Register class as alasql type

    alasql.fn.Date = Date;

Use NEW

    alasql(‘SELECT NEW Date(yr,mn-1,dy) FROM orderdates’)
