vertica-nodejs is free software. If you encounter a bug with the library please open an issue on the GitHub repo. If you have questions unanswered by the documentation please open an issue pointing out how the documentation was unclear and we will address it as needed.
When you open an issue please provide:
- version of Node
- version of Vertica
- smallest possible snippet of code to reproduce the problem
See the examples directory for sample applications showing how to use the vertica-nodejs client driver.
- Clone the repo
- From your workspace root run
yarnand thenyarn lerna bootstrap - Ensure you have a Vertica instance running with
- Ensure you have the proper environment variables configured for connecting to the instance (
V_HOST,V_PORT,V_USER,V_PASSWORD,V_DATABASE,V_BACKUP_SERVER_NODE) - Run
yarn testto run all the tests, or runyarn testfrom within an individual package to only run that package's tests
If using VS Code, you can install the Remote - Containers extension and it will use the configuration under the .devcontainer folder to automatically create dev containers, including Vertica. See here for more information on developing in containers using VS Code. This process will complete steps 2 to 4 above.
