Added toObjectAsync and toObjArrayAsync. #228
Conversation
These functions will not block the event loop compared to the original toObject function. They also return from a promise instead of a callback. These functions are really useful when dealing with big data as return value. Performances are similar to the original method.

I've added this since i have been looking for a way to unblock my event loop for a couple of days now, originally looking into worker threads but node-java does not support them yet (don't know if they ever will). This is a solution to that problem and i'm sure others would like to use it aswell. |

Can you please merge it? @jasonozias |
Hey Tomas, you can still use the same idea but with a wrapper while waiting for this PR to be accepted. The solution i provided seem to slow down the event loop on bigger request, but it's still better then having it completely stop. I ended up running my biggest query with pyodbc in a worker node because i wanted faster results. But this may work quite well for your application. If you need any support, you can contact me via email. |
