Query Smaregi Data as a SQL Server in Node.js

You can use CData Connect Server to query Smaregi data through a SQL Server interface. Follow the procedure below to create a virtual database for Smaregi in Connect Server and start querying using Node.js.

CData Connect Server provides a pure SQL Server interface for Smaregi, allowing you to easily build reports from live Smaregi data in Node.js — without replicating the data to a natively supported database. As you build visualizations, Node.js generates SQL queries to gather data. Using optimized data processing out of the box, CData Connect Server pushes all supported SQL operations (filters, JOINs, etc) directly to Smaregi, leveraging server-side processing to quickly return the requested Smaregi data.

Create a Virtual SQL Server Database for Smaregi Data

CData Connect Server uses a straightforward, point-and-click interface to connect to data sources and generate APIs.

1. Login to Connect Server and click Connections.
2. Select "Smaregi" from Available Data Sources.
3. Enter the necessary authentication properties to connect to Smaregi.

   In order to authenticate, specify the following:

   • ContractId: Enter the Contract ID of your account. You can also find it in the Reception setting section.
   • AccessToken: Enter the access token in the Reception setting section.

   Both values can be found after logging into Smaregi and navigating to Configurations -> System linkage -> Smart API setting.

4. Click Save Changes
5. Click Privileges -> Add and add the new user (or an existing user) with the appropriate permissions.

With the virtual database created, you are ready to connect to Smaregi data from Node.js.

Query Smaregi from Node.js

The following example shows how to define a connection and execute queries to Smaregi with the SQL Server module. You will need the following information:

• Host name, or address, and port: The address of your Connect Server instance and the port (1433)
• Username and password: The username and password of a user you authorized on Connect Server
• Database name: The database you configured for Smaregi (Smaregi1)

Connect to Smaregi data and start executing queries with the code below:

const sql = require('mssql');

const config = {
    user: 'your_connect_username', 
    password: 'your_connect_password', 
    server: 'connect_server_url', 
    port: 1433, // optional, defaults to 1433
    database: 'Smaregi1',
    authentication: {
        type: 'default'
    },
    options: {
        encrypt: true
    }
}

console.log("Starting...");
connectAndQuery();

async function connectAndQuery() {
    try {
        var poolConnection = await sql.connect(config);

        console.log("Reading rows from the table...");
        var resultSet = await poolConnection.request().query(`SELECT * FROM table_name`);

        console.log(`${resultSet.recordset.length} rows returned.`);

        // output column headers
        var columns = "";
        for (var column in resultSet.recordset.columns) {
            columns += column + ", ";
        }
        console.log("%s	", columns.substring(0, columns.length - 2));

        // ouput row contents from default record set
        resultSet.recordset.forEach(row => {
            console.log("%s	%s", row.CategoryName, row.ProductName);
        });

        // close connection only when we're certain application is finished
        poolConnection.close();
    } catch (err) {
        console.error(err.message);
    }
}
