Sequelize Demo 001

A Simple Demo for Node, Express (4), mySQL2, Sequelize and body-parser

The master branch contains just the base dependencies, this README, and a .gitignore.

Subsequent Branches represent successive builds of the example. Explore those branches to see this app evolves.

Installed NPM packages:

• "body-parser": "^1.18.3"
• "express": "^4.16.3",
• "mysql2": "^1.6.1",
• "sequelize": "^4.38.0"

body-parser extracts the entire body portion of an incoming request stream and exposes it on req. body . The middleware was a part of Express.js earlier but now is installed separately. This module parses the JSON, buffer, string and URL encoded data submitted using HTTP POST request.

The MySQL2 project is a continuation of MySQL-Native. Protocol parser code was rewritten from scratch and api changed to match popular mysqljs/mysql. MySQL2 team is working together with mysqljs/mysql team to factor out shared code and move it under mysqljs organisation

Sequelize is a promise-based ORM for Node.js v4 and up. It supports the dialects PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite and MSSQL and features solid transaction support, relations, read replication and more.
