I'm looking for a library that allows node.js to connect to ODBC on windows. All the libraries I have found thus far seem to work with UnixODBC but not windows, can someone please suggest a library that will work with Windows?
Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) is a protocol that you can use to connect a Microsoft Access database to an external data source such as Microsoft SQL Server. This article contains general information about ODBC data sources, how to create them, and how to connect to them by using Microsoft Access.
Although the readme only mentions UnixODBC, this project: https://github.com/wankdanker/node-odbc will actually install and work on windows.
You can install it on windows with:
npm install odbc
but you will need the various requiements for building native modules on windows:
