To select data from a table in MySQL, use the "SELECT" statement.
example:
Select all records from the "customers" table, and display the result object:
var mysql = require('mysql');
var con = mysql.createConnection({
host: "localhost",
user: "yourusername",
password: "yourpassword",
database: "mydb"
});
con.connect(function(err) {
if (err) throw err;
con.query("SELECT * FROM customers", function (err, result, fields) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(result);
});
});
SELECT * will return all columns
