Create a MySQL Table in Node.js

Create a table using “CREATE TABLE”

First, we create a table named customers

	var mysql = require('mysql');
var con = mysql.createConnection({

  host: "localhost",

  user: "yourusername",

  password: "yourpassword",

  database: "mydb"

});
con.connect(function(err) {

  if (err) throw err;

  console.log("Connected!");

  var sql = "CREATE TABLE customers (name VARCHAR(255), address VARCHAR(255))";

  con.query(sql, function (err, result) {

    if (err) throw err;

    console.log("Table created");

  });

});

Save the file as “demo_create_table.js” and then run it

node demo_create_table.js

If successful, the following will appear

Connected!

Table created
