mysql-connector

A TypeScript-friendly MySQL helper library (v2.0.6) built on top of the popular mysqljs/mysql package. It provides Promise-based async/await support for connections, queries, and transactions, along with fluent query builders for SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE, and other operations. The library emphasizes ease of use with DbContext and automatic transaction commit/rollback. Key differentiators include built-in TypeScript type definitions, a simple query builder API, and a focus on reducing boilerplate for common MySQL operations. However, it is not actively maintained (last release 2019) and has limited community adoption compared to alternatives like mysql2 or knex.
