MySQL Connector

This is an Arrow connector to MySQL.

Installation

$ appc install connector/appc.mysql

A configuration file is generated for you. By default we use a host of localhost, a user of root and an empty password to connect. However, you must set a database in your configuration.

Usage

Reference the connector in your model.

var Account = Arrow.Model.extend('Account',{
	fields: {
		Name: { type: String, required: true, validator: /[a-zA-Z]{3,}/ }
	},
	connector: 'appc.mysql'
});

If you want to map a specific model to a specific table, use metadata. For example, to map the account model to the table named accounts, set it such as:

var Account = Arrow.Model.extend('account',{
	fields: {
		Name: { type: String, required: false, validator: /[a-zA-Z]{3,}/ }
	},
	connector: 'appc.mysql',
	metadata: {
		'appc.mysql': {
			table: 'accounts'
		}
	}
});
