|
`@tdengine/websocket` is the official Node.js client library for TDengine. Node.js developers can develop applications to access the TDengine instance data.
|
|
|
|
The source code for the Node.js client library is hosted on [GitHub](https://github.com/taosdata/taos-connector-node/tree/main).
|
|
|
|
## Connection types
|
|
|
|
Node.js connector supports only websocket connection through taosAdapter.
|
|
|
|
For a detailed introduction of the connection types, please refer to: [Establish Connection](../../../develop/connect/#establish-connection)
|
|
|
|
## Supported platforms
|
|
|
|
Node.js client library needs to be run with Node.js 14 or higher version.
|
|
|
|

## Installation Steps
|
|
|
|
### Pre-installation preparation
|
|
|
|
- Install the Node.js development environment, using version 14 or above. Download link: https://nodejs.org/en/download/
|
|
|
|
### Install Node.js client library via npm
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install @tdengine/websocket
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Verify
|
|
|
|
After installing the TDengine client, use the `nodejsChecker.js` program to verify that the current environment supports Node.js access to TDengine.
|
|
|
|
Verification in details:
|
|
|
|
- Create an installation test folder such as `~/tdengine-test`. Download the [nodejsChecker.js](https://github.com/taosdata/TDengine/tree/main/docs/examples/node/websocketexample/nodejsChecker.js) to your local machine.
|
|
|
|
- Execute the following command from the command-line.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm init -y
|
|
npm install @tdengine/websocket
|
|
node nodejsChecker.js host=localhost
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- After executing the above steps, the command-line will output the result of `nodejsChecker.js` connecting to the TDengine instance and performing a simple insert and query.
|
|
|
|
## Establishing a connection
|
|
|
|
Install and import the `@tdengine/websocket` package.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: After using the Node.js client library, it is necessary to call taos.destroy() Release connector resources.
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
const taos = require("@tdengine/websocket");
|
|
|
|
//database operations......
|
|
|
|
taos.destroy();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
WSConfig configures the Websocket parameters as follows:
|
|
getToken(): string | undefined | null;
|
|
setToken(token: string): void;
|
|
getUser(): string | undefined | null;
|
|
setUser(user: string): void;
|
|
getPwd(): string | undefined | null;
|
|
setPwd(pws: string): void;
|
|
getDb(): string | undefined | null;
|
|
setDb(db: string): void;
|
|
getUrl(): string;
|
|
setUrl(url: string): void;
|
|
setTimeOut(ms: number): void;
|
|
getTimeOut(): number | undefined | null;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
{{#include docs/examples/node/websocketexample/sql_example.js:createConnect}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage examples
|
|
|
|
### Create database and tables
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
{{#include docs/examples/node/websocketexample/sql_example.js:create_db_and_table}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note**: If you do not use `USE power` to specify the database, all subsequent operations on the table need to add the database name as a prefix, such as power.meters.
|
|
|
|
### Insert data
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
{{#include docs/examples/node/websocketexample/sql_example.js:insertData}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> NOW is an internal function. The default is the current time of the client's computer.
|
|
> `NOW + 1s` represents the current time of the client plus 1 second, followed by the number representing the unit of time: a (milliseconds), s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours), d (days), w (weeks), n (months), y (years).
|
|
|
|
### Querying data
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
{{#include docs/examples/node/websocketexample/sql_example.js:queryData}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> Discovered data structure
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
wsRow:meta:=> [
|
|
{ name: 'ts', type: 'TIMESTAMP', length: 8 },
|
|
{ name: 'current', type: 'FLOAT', length: 4 },
|
|
{ name: 'voltage', type: 'INT', length: 4 },
|
|
{ name: 'phase', type: 'FLOAT', length: 4 },
|
|
{ name: 'location', type: 'VARCHAR', length: 64},
|
|
{ name: 'groupid', type: 'INT', length: 4 }
|
|
]
|
|
wsRow:data:=> [
|
|
[ 1714013737536n, 12.3, 221, 0.31, 'California.SanFrancisco', 3 ]
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Execute SQL with reqId
|
|
|
|
<RequestId />
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
{{#include docs/examples/node/websocketexample/sql_example.js:sqlWithReqid}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Writing data via parameter binding
|
|
|
|
The Node.js client library provides a parameter binding api for inserting data. Similar to most databases, TDengine currently only supports the question mark `?` to indicate the parameters to be bound.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: Do not use `db.?` in prepareStatement when specify the database with the table name, should directly use `?`, then specify the database in setTableName, for example: `prepareStatement.setTableName("db.t1")`.
|
|
|
|
Sample Code:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
{{#include docs/examples/node/websocketexample/stmt_example.js}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The methods to set TAGS values or VALUES columns:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
setBoolean(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setTinyInt(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setUTinyInt(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setSmallInt(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setUSmallInt(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setInt(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setUInt(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setBigint(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setUBigint(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setFloat(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setDouble(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setVarchar(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setBinary(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setNchar(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setJson(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setVarBinary(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setGeometry(params: any[]): void;
|
|
setTimestamp(params: any[]): void;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note**: Only TAG supports JSON types
|
|
|
|
### Schemaless Writing
|
|
|
|
TDengine supports schemaless writing. It is compatible with InfluxDB's Line Protocol, OpenTSDB's telnet line protocol, and OpenTSDB's JSON format protocol. For more information, see [Schemaless Writing](../../schemaless/).
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
{{#include docs/examples/node/websocketexample/line_example.js}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Schemaless with reqId
|
|
|
|
This reqId can be used to request link tracing.
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
await wsSchemaless.schemalessInsert([influxdbData], SchemalessProto.InfluxDBLineProtocol, Precision.NANO_SECONDS, ttl, reqId);
|
|
await wsSchemaless.schemalessInsert([telnetData], SchemalessProto.OpenTSDBTelnetLineProtocol, Precision.NANO_SECONDS, ttl, reqId);
|
|
await wsSchemaless.schemalessInsert([jsonData], SchemalessProto.OpenTSDBJsonFormatProtocol, Precision.NANO_SECONDS, ttl, reqId);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Data Subscription
|
|
|
|
The TDengine Node.js client library supports subscription functionality with the following application API.
|
|
|
|
#### Create a Topic
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
{{#include docs/examples/node/websocketexample/tmq_example.js:create_topic}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Create a Consumer
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
{{#include docs/examples/node/websocketexample/tmq_example.js:create_consumer}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Parameter Description**
|
|
|
|
- taos.TMQConstants.CONNECT_USER: username.
|
|

|
## Usage limitations
|
|
|
|
- Node.js client library (`@tdengine/websocket`) supports Node.js 14 or higher.
|
|
- It supports only WebSocket connection, so taosAdapter needs to be started in advance.
|
|
- After using the connect, you need to call taos.destroy(); Release connector resources.
|
|
|
|
## Frequently Asked Questions
|
|
|
|
1. "Unable to establish connection" or "Unable to resolve FQDN"
|
|
|
|
**Solution**: Usually, the root cause is an incorrect FQDN configuration. You can refer to this section in the [FAQ](../../../train-faq/faq/#2-how-can-i-resolve-the-unable-to-establish-connection-error) to troubleshoot.
