I am currently trying to make a little Discord Bot using the mysql2 package for Database Connection. When I set up my DB like this:
const con = mysql.createConnection({
host: process.env.DB_HOST,
user: process.env.DB_USER,
database: process.env.DB_DATABASE,
password: process.env.DB_PASSWORD,
port: process.env.DB_PORT
});
(the data from my .env file is 100% right) and then do a query like this:
client.database.query("SELECT * FROM `guilds_settings` WHERE `guild` = ?", [message.guild.id], (err, results) => {
if(err) {
return client.log.error("Failed loading language for guild " + message.guild.id + ": " + err);
}
message.reply(results[0].language);
});
(client.database
= con
) This just gives me the error "Not database selected", even though I selected the database when creating the connection.
Thanks to a little tip from esqew I was able to fix it. In my case it was caused my the string for the database was undefined, because I did the stuff to load the .env
file after creating the connection. Be sure to always put stuff like this at the beginning! :)
