This project includes scripts for retrieving a list of databases and tables from SQL Server and saving this information to a text file. Additionally, batch files are provided for installing dependencies and running the script.
This Node.js script performs the following actions:
- Connects to SQL Server using the configuration specified in the script.
- Executes an SQL query to retrieve a list of all databases (excluding system databases) and tables within them.
- Saves the results to a text file named
databases_and_tables.txt. - Outputs the information to the console with color formatting.
This script performs:
- Checks for the presence of Node.js and NPM.
- Creates a
package.jsonfile if it does not exist. - Installs dependencies using NPM.
This script runs the main Node.js script listDatabasesAndTables.mjs.
