# Tds.Ecto
MSSQL / TDS Adapter for Ecto
## Example
```elixir
# In your config/config.exs file add MSSQL connection options
# By default it use port 1433, different port can be specified with
# port: 1434
# option and named instance with
# instance: "instance_name"
config :my_app, Repo,
  database: "ecto_simple",
  username: "mssql",
  password: "mssql",
  hostname: "localhost"
# In your application code
defmodule Repo do
  use Ecto.Repo,
    otp_app: :my_app,
    adapter: Tds.Ecto
end
defmodule Weather do
  use Ecto.Model
  schema "weather" do
    field :city     # Defaults to type :string
    field :temp_lo, :integer
    field :temp_hi, :integer
    field :prcp,    :float, default: 0.0
  end
end
defmodule Simple do
  import Ecto.Query
  def sample_query do
    query = from w in Weather,
          where: w.prcp > 0 or is_nil(w.prcp),
         select: w
    Repo.all(query)
  end
end
```
## Usage
Add Tds as a dependency in your `mix.exs` file.
```elixir
def deps do
  [{:tds_ecto, "~> 0.2"}]
end
```
You should also update your applications list to include both projects:
```elixir
def application do
  [applications: [:logger, :tds_ecto, :ecto]]
end
```
To use the adapter in your repo:
```elixir
defmodule MyApp.Repo do
  use Ecto.Repo,
    otp_app: :my_app,
    adapter: Tds.Ecto
end
```
For additional information on usage please see the documentation for [Ecto](http://hexdocs.pm/ecto).

## Contributing
To contribute you need to compile Tds from source and test it:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/livehelpnow/tds_ecto.git
$ cd tds_ecto
$ mix test
```
The tests require an addition to your hosts file to connect to your sql server database.
<IP OF SQL SERVER>	mssql.local
Additionally SQL authentication needs to be used for connecting and testing. Add the user `test_user` with access to the database `test_db`. See one of the test files for the connection information and port number.
