This section provides a walk-through to writing ODBC data access code to Amazon Redshift in Node.js, using the node-odbc package.

Connecting from Node.js

See Getting Started for the prerequisite information you need to deploy the driver and configure the connection to Amazon Redshift.

Dependencies describes the necessary steps to install the node-odbc package. Once it is installed, refer to Connecting to connect to Amazon Redshift.

Executing SQL

Use node-odbc functions to execute SQL on Amazon Redshift:

• See Querying Data to execute SELECT statements and iterate over the results.
• See Modifying Data to execute other SQL data manipulation statements.
• See Parameterized Statements to execute parameterized statements. Parameterized statements provide a means to efficiently execute queries more than once and to mitigate SQL injection attacks.

Executing Stored Procedures

See Executing Stored Procedures to execute stored procedures as SQL statements.
