today I tried node.js mysql snippet from w3schools:
var mysql = require('mysql');
var con = mysql.createConnection({
host: "localhost",
user: "roots", // WRONG USER
password: ""
});
con.connect(function(err) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log("Connected!");
/*Create a database named "mydb":*/
con.query("CREATE DATABASE mydb", function (err, result) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log("Database created");
});
});
I wanted to learn how to handle mysql errors, because my app require mysql. But after I started app.js file this error showed up:
Why can't I throw an error?
if (err) throw err;
with this lineif (err) console.log("Oops... Something went wrong");
