@collectai/node-waitfordb v0.2.1

node-waitfordb

Install

npm install @collectai/node-waitfordb

Run

The installer puts the scripts in the node_module/.bin folder, so those can be run from there:

node $(npm bin)/waitfordb- wait for database (or database instance) to be created

node $(npm bin)/createdb- create database(s) database instance

Parameters

Environment variables

• POSTGRES_URL is used as default source for connection string, but further connection strings can be added as commandline arguments for both the waitfordb and createdb scripts.

• WAIT_FOR_INSTANCE the waitfordb script uses only. If set to true, it checks if the instance is up and ignoring the set database name in the connection string(s).

• DEBUG domain root for the log library (see https://github.com/collectai/node-logger )

Examples

it's recommended to set up in your project's package.json. Example:

"scripts": {
  "waitfordb": "POSTRGES_URL=postgres://dbuser@dbhostname.com:5432/databasename DEBUG=app* node $(npm bin)/waitfordb"
},

then it can be run as: npm run waitfordb
