This repository and the associated npm package are currently in a π£ pre-release state and are being used for testing π§ͺ purposes. They are subject to change without notice π. Users are encouraged to use this driver with caution β and not in production environments until the official release.
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running π on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
- Docker: We use Docker π³ to run the Scylla database easily without the need for a complex local setup.
- Node.js: Make sure you have Node.js installed on your system to run JavaScript code.
-
Start ScyllaDB in Docker:
Run a ScyllaDB instance using the following Docker command:
docker run --name scylladb -d --rm -it -p 9042:9042 scylladb/scylla --smp 2
This command pulls the Scylla image if it's not already present on your system, and starts a new π container with the Scylla database.
-
Use the JavaScript Driver:
Here's a simple script to connect to the database and execute a query:
import { Cluster } from "@lambda-group/scylladb"; const cluster = new Cluster({ nodes: ["127.0.0.1:9042"], }); const session = await cluster.connect("system_schema"); const result = await session .execute("SELECT * FROM scylla_tables limit ?", [1]) .catch(console.error); console.log(result);
This script connects to the ScyllaDB instance running on your machine, performs a query, and logs the result.
To install this package, use the following command:
npm install @lambda-group/scylladb
Reference wise you can guide yourself through the examples/ folder in the repo.
- Thanks to the developers of ScyllaDB for creating such a high-performance database.
