How do I do a bulk insert in mySQL using node.js

How would one do a bulk insert into mySQL if using something like https://github.com/felixge/node-mysql

Answer 1

Few things I want to mention is that I'm using mysql package for making a connection with my database and what you saw below is working code and written for insert bulk query.

const values = [
  [1, 'DEBUG', 'Something went wrong. I have to debug this.'],
  [2, 'INFO', 'This just information to end user.'],
  [3, 'WARNING', 'Warning are really helping users.'],
  [4, 'SUCCESS', 'If everything works then your request is successful']
];

const query = "INSERT INTO logs(id, type, desc) VALUES ?";

const query = connection.query(query, [values], function(err, result) {
  if (err) {
    console.log('err', err)
  }

  console.log('result', result)
});
