Check mysql tabel for new data nodejs
Here is an example of how you can check a MySQL table for new data using Node.js:
const mysql = require('mysql');
// Create a connection to the database
const db = mysql.createConnection({
host: 'your_host',
user: 'your_user',
password: 'your_password',
database: 'your_database'
});
// Connect to the database
db.connect((err) => {
if (err) {
console.error('error connecting:', err);
return;
}
console.log('connected as id ' + db.threadId);
// Query the database to get the latest data
db.query('SELECT * FROM your_table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1', (err, results) => {
if (err) {
console.error('error running query:', err);
return;
}
const latestData = results[0];
// Check if there is new data
db.query('SELECT * FROM your_table WHERE id >?', latestData.id, (err, results) => {
if (err) {
console.error('error running query:', err);
return;
}
const newData = results;
// Process the new data
console.log('New data:', newData);
// Close the connection
db.end();
});
});
});
This code creates a connection to a MySQL database using the mysql
package, and then queries the database to get the latest data from a table. It then checks if there is new data by querying the database again with a condition that filters out any rows with an id
less than or equal to the latest id
. If there is new data, it is processed and logged to the console.
You can also use mysql-promise
package which is a promise-based wrapper around the mysql package, it makes it easier to work with mysql in node.js.
const mysql = require('mysql-promise');
// Create a connection to the database
const db = mysql.create({
host: 'your_host',
user: 'your_user',
password: 'your_password',
database: 'your_database'
});
// Query the database to get the latest data
db.query('SELECT * FROM your_table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1')
.then((results) => {
const latestData = results[0];
// Check if there is new data
db.query('SELECT * FROM your_table WHERE id >?', latestData.id)
.then((results) => {
const newData = results;
// Process the new data
console.log('New data:', newData);
// Close the connection
db.end();
})
.catch((err) => {
console.error('error running query:', err);
});
})
.catch((err) => {
console.error('error running query:', err);
});
You can also use async/await
syntax to make the code look more synchronous
async function checkForNewData() {
const db = mysql.create({
host: 'your_host',
user: 'your_user',
password: 'your_password',
database: 'your_database'
});
const latestData = await db.query('SELECT * FROM your_table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1');
const newData = await db.query('SELECT * FROM your_table WHERE id >?', latestData[0].id);
console.log('New data:', newData);
db.end();
}
checkForNewData();
Please note that you should replace your_host
, your_user
, your_password
, your_database
and your_table
with your actual database credentials and table name.
