# barnacles-tds

**barnacles-tds** writes IoT data to a SQL Server database using TDS (Tabular Data Stream).

![Overview of barnacles-tds](https://reelyactive.github.io/barnacles-tds/images/overview.png)

**barnacles-tds** ingests a real-time stream of _raddec_ and _dynamb_ objects from [barnacles](https://github.com/reelyactive/barnacles/) which it writes to the specified SQL Server database as JSON. It couples seamlessly with reelyActive's [Pareto Anywhere](https://www.reelyactive.com/pareto/anywhere/) open source IoT middleware.

**barnacles-tds** is a lightweight [Node.js package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/barnacles-tds) that can run on resource-constrained edge devices as well as on powerful cloud servers and anything in between.

## Pareto Anywhere integration

A common application of **barnacles-tds** is to write IoT data from [pareto-anywhere](https://github.com/reelyactive/pareto-anywhere) to a SQL Server database. Simply follow our [Create a Pareto Anywhere startup script](https://reelyactive.github.io/diy/pareto-anywhere-startup-script/) tutorial using the script below:

```javascript
#!/usr/bin/env node

const ParetoAnywhere = require('../lib/paretoanywhere.js');

let pa = new ParetoAnywhere();

// Edit the options to match your SQL Server configuration
const BARNACLES_TDS_OPTIONS = {
config: {
server: '127.0.0.1',
authentication: {
type: 'default',
options: {
userName: 'admin',
password: 'admin',
},
},
options: {
database: 'reelyactive',
},
},
raddecTable: 'raddec',
raddecColumn: 'raddec',
dynambTable: 'dynamb',
dynambColumn: 'dynamb',
handleEventCallback: () => {},
};

// ----- Exit gracefully if the optional dependency is not found -----
let BarnaclesTDS;
try {
BarnaclesTDS = require('barnacles-tds');
} catch (err) {
console.log('This script requires barnacles-tds. Install with:');
console.log('\r\n "npm install barnacles-tds"\r\n');
return console.log('and then run this script again.');
}
// -------------------------------------------------------------------

pa.barnacles.addInterface(BarnaclesTDS, BARNACLES_TDS_OPTIONS);
```

## MS SQL Server Setup

Use the following query to setup the table that will store the dynamb messages.
The column name can be changed if desired, and is configurable through the options.

```
CREATE TABLE dynamb (
_storeId int NOT NULL IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY,
dynamb VARCHAR(8000) NOT NULL,
)
```

## Options

**barnacles-tds** supports the following options:

| Property | Default | Description |
| :----------- | :------------------ | :--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| config | { /_ See below _/ } | See [Tedious Connection config](https://tediousjs.github.io/tedious/api-connection.html) |
| raddecTable | "raddec" | Name of table in which to store raddecs |
| raddecColumn | "raddec" | Name of column in which to store raddec |
| dynambTable | "dynamb" | Name of table in which to store dynambs |
| dynambColumn | "dynamb" | Name of column in which to store dynamb |

The default config is as follows:

{
server: "127.0.0.1",
authentication: {
type: "default",
options: { userName: "admin", password: "admin" }
},
options: {
encrypt: false,
database: "pareto-anywhere"
}
}
