@bajtos @raymondfeng , since we'll be adding other connectors in the available-connectors.json
, does it make sense to include this connector too?
Related to: https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-next/issues/3714
In https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-next/pull/4203, we decoupled lb4
CLI from loopback-workspace
, we are keeping the list of LB4 connectors in side loopback-next monorepo now. I am going to move this issue to loopback-next repository.
@xzessmedia would you like to contribute this change yourself? See Submitting a pull request to LoopBack 4 to get started.
Thanks @bajtos. It's good to know that we have a separate json for the connectors for LB4. https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-next/blob/master/packages/cli/lib/connectors.json
@bajtos I added the connector to the connectors.json which seem to work but there are some parameters missing to work correctly.
how do we set: server or servername which is ifxeglon_tcp in our case. protocol=olsoctcp;
So please can you at least provide all necessary parameters we need to specifiy to successfully connect loopback with our informix database?
IBM Informix Dynamic Server Version 11.50.FC9GE
Thank you for your help and all thumbs up to Loopback 4

I am afraid I know nothing about the Informix connector. The discussion about this issue is about adding Informix connector to the list of connectors recognized by lb4 datasource
.
Please ask in https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-connector-informix about those additional settings (e.g. open a new issue).
It's possible these options are not supported by the connector yet. Here is the code initializing connection options in case it helps you to better understand what is and what is not supported:
Referring to https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-connector-informix/issues/56
The Informix Connector is not part of the tooling. It should be available by default so informix users can take the advantage of using loopback with their systems
