Stored procedure support about node-ibm_db

[RocketRooster]

You can call SPs by formatting your SQL query accordingly, ie "exec my_sp(?, ?....?)" or "call schema.proc(?...?)" or whatever convention your DBM uses.

How to call a DB2 stored proc which has input as well as output params? I checked for examples but there aren't any for the same. Can someone highlight how to use the same? This sp has just 1 out param .
If I just use call schema.samplesp(), i am getting error :
No authorized routine named "schema.SAMPLESP" of type "PROCEDURE" having compatible arguments was found. SQLSTATE=42884\n',
state: '42884' }

You can't call a SP with one or more params by not specifying parameters. SQL isn't javascript.

Thanks for pointing that out. I was able to call SP by CALL schema.samplesp(?) . If the samplesp has no out params, it is working fine. But if the SP has an out param, its failing with same error as above. Please let me know on how to handle out param while calling SP.

Are you using nodeodbc? It doesn't support out params (yet). Declare a cursor for return if you want to retrieve values from your SP.

I'm getting the same issue as fetchMode:4. I am trying to call stored Proc with out parameters. How do I know if i am using nodeodbc. I havent installed any seperate driver. I just did the npm install ibm_db. Im using a mac so i had to DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=<node_modules_dir>/ibm_db/installer/clidriver/lib/icc:$DYLD_LIBRARYPATH

Code changes related to Stored Procedure support is pushed on github and will be released soon. You can get it by using npm install git+https://[email protected]/ibmdb/node-ibm_db.git command.
To know how to pass OUT and INPUT parameters for SP, see the test examples which is calling stored procedure synchronously and asynchronously : https://github.com/ibmdb/node-ibm_db/blob/master/test/test-call-stmt.js
https://github.com/ibmdb/node-ibm_db/blob/master/test/test-call-async.js

Code is currently under testing.. if you face any issue, please report here. This issue will get closed once we release a new version with support of SP. Thanks.
