What is @aws-sdk/client-rds-data?
@aws-sdk/client-rds-data is an AWS SDK for JavaScript package that allows you to interact with Amazon RDS Data Service. This service enables you to run SQL statements on Amazon Aurora Serverless clusters through a secure HTTP endpoint without managing database connections.
What are @aws-sdk/client-rds-data's main functionalities?
Execute SQL Statements
This feature allows you to execute SQL statements on your Amazon Aurora Serverless cluster. The code sample demonstrates how to set up the client, define the parameters, and execute a SQL statement to retrieve data from a table.
const { RDSDataClient, ExecuteStatementCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-rds-data');
const client = new RDSDataClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const params = {
resourceArn: 'arn:aws:rds:us-west-2:123456789012:cluster:my-aurora-cluster',
secretArn: 'arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:my-secret',
sql: 'SELECT * FROM my_table',
database: 'my_database'
};
const run = async () => {
try {
const data = await client.send(new ExecuteStatementCommand(params));
console.log(data);
} catch (err) {
console.error(err);
}
};
run();
Batch Execute SQL Statements
This feature allows you to execute a batch of SQL statements in a single request. The code sample demonstrates how to set up the client, define the parameters, and execute multiple SQL insert statements in a batch.
const { RDSDataClient, BatchExecuteStatementCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-rds-data');
const client = new RDSDataClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const params = {
resourceArn: 'arn:aws:rds:us-west-2:123456789012:cluster:my-aurora-cluster',
secretArn: 'arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:my-secret',
sql: 'INSERT INTO my_table (id, name) VALUES (:id, :name)',
database: 'my_database',
parameterSets: [
[
{ name: 'id', value: { longValue: 1 } },
{ name: 'name', value: { stringValue: 'John' } }
],
[
{ name: 'id', value: { longValue: 2 } },
{ name: 'name', value: { stringValue: 'Jane' } }
]
]
};
const run = async () => {
try {
const data = await client.send(new BatchExecuteStatementCommand(params));
console.log(data);
} catch (err) {
console.error(err);
}
};
run();
Begin Transaction
This feature allows you to begin a new transaction. The code sample demonstrates how to set up the client, define the parameters, and begin a transaction on your Amazon Aurora Serverless cluster.
const { RDSDataClient, BeginTransactionCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-rds-data');
const client = new RDSDataClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const params = {
resourceArn: 'arn:aws:rds:us-west-2:123456789012:cluster:my-aurora-cluster',
secretArn: 'arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:my-secret',
database: 'my_database'
};
const run = async () => {
try {
const data = await client.send(new BeginTransactionCommand(params));
console.log(data);
} catch (err) {
console.error(err);
}
};
run();
Commit Transaction
This feature allows you to commit a transaction. The code sample demonstrates how to set up the client, define the parameters, and commit a transaction on your Amazon Aurora Serverless cluster.
const { RDSDataClient, CommitTransactionCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-rds-data');
const client = new RDSDataClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const params = {
resourceArn: 'arn:aws:rds:us-west-2:123456789012:cluster:my-aurora-cluster',
secretArn: 'arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:my-secret',
transactionId: 'your-transaction-id'
};
const run = async () => {
try {
const data = await client.send(new CommitTransactionCommand(params));
console.log(data);
} catch (err) {
console.error(err);
}
};
run();
Rollback Transaction
This feature allows you to roll back a transaction. The code sample demonstrates how to set up the client, define the parameters, and roll back a transaction on your Amazon Aurora Serverless cluster.
const { RDSDataClient, RollbackTransactionCommand } = require('@aws-sdk/client-rds-data');
const client = new RDSDataClient({ region: 'us-west-2' });
const params = {
resourceArn: 'arn:aws:rds:us-west-2:123456789012:cluster:my-aurora-cluster',
secretArn: 'arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-west-2:123456789012:secret:my-secret',
transactionId: 'your-transaction-id'
};
const run = async () => {
try {
const data = await client.send(new RollbackTransactionCommand(params));
console.log(data);
} catch (err) {
console.error(err);
}
};
run();
Other packages similar to @aws-sdk/client-rds-data
mysql
The 'mysql' package is a popular Node.js client for MySQL databases. It allows you to connect to a MySQL database, execute queries, and manage transactions. Unlike @aws-sdk/client-rds-data, it requires you to manage database connections and is not specific to AWS services.
pg
The 'pg' package is a PostgreSQL client for Node.js. It provides a way to connect to PostgreSQL databases, execute SQL queries, and handle transactions. Similar to the 'mysql' package, it requires manual connection management and is not tailored for AWS services.
sequelize
Sequelize is a promise-based Node.js ORM for various SQL databases, including MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. It provides a higher-level abstraction for database operations, including model definitions and query building. Unlike @aws-sdk/client-rds-data, it is not specific to AWS and offers more advanced ORM features.
knex
Knex.js is a SQL query builder for Node.js that supports multiple database types, including MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. It provides a flexible and powerful way to build and execute SQL queries. Unlike @aws-sdk/client-rds-data, it is not specific to AWS and requires manual connection management.

Description
AWS SDK for JavaScript RDSData Client for Node.js, Browser and React Native.
RDS Data API
Amazon RDS provides an HTTP endpoint to run SQL statements on an Amazon Aurora DB cluster. To run these
statements, you use the RDS Data API (Data API).
Data API is available with the following types of Aurora databases:
-
Aurora PostgreSQL - Serverless v2, provisioned, and Serverless v1
-
Aurora MySQL - Serverless v2, provisioned, and Serverless v1
For more information about the Data API, see
Using RDS Data API
in the Amazon Aurora User Guide.
Installing
To install this package, simply type add or install @aws-sdk/client-rds-data
using your favorite package manager:
npm install @aws-sdk/client-rds-data
yarn add @aws-sdk/client-rds-data
pnpm add @aws-sdk/client-rds-data
Getting Started
Import
The AWS SDK is modulized by clients and commands.
To send a request, you only need to import the RDSDataClient
and
the commands you need, for example BeginTransactionCommand
:
const { RDSDataClient, BeginTransactionCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-rds-data");
import { RDSDataClient, BeginTransactionCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-rds-data";
Usage
To send a request, you:
- Initiate client with configuration (e.g. credentials, region).
- Initiate command with input parameters.
- Call
send
operation on client with command object as input. - If you are using a custom http handler, you may call
destroy()
to close open connections.
const client = new RDSDataClient({ region: "REGION" });
const params = {
};
const command = new BeginTransactionCommand(params);
Async/await
We recommend using await
operator to wait for the promise returned by send operation as follows:
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
} catch (error) {
} finally {
}
Async-await is clean, concise, intuitive, easy to debug and has better error handling
as compared to using Promise chains or callbacks.
Promises
You can also use Promise chaining
to execute send operation.
client.send(command).then(
(data) => {
},
(error) => {
}
);
Promises can also be called using .catch()
and .finally()
as follows:
client
.send(command)
.then((data) => {
})
.catch((error) => {
})
.finally(() => {
});
Callbacks
We do not recommend using callbacks because of callback hell,
but they are supported by the send operation.
client.send(command, (err, data) => {
});
v2 compatible style
The client can also send requests using v2 compatible style.
However, it results in a bigger bundle size and may be dropped in next major version. More details in the blog post
on modular packages in AWS SDK for JavaScript
import * as AWS from "@aws-sdk/client-rds-data";
const client = new AWS.RDSData({ region: "REGION" });
try {
const data = await client.beginTransaction(params);
} catch (error) {
}
client
.beginTransaction(params)
.then((data) => {
})
.catch((error) => {
});
client.beginTransaction(params, (err, data) => {
});
Troubleshooting
When the service returns an exception, the error will include the exception information,
as well as response metadata (e.g. request id).
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
} catch (error) {
const { requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId } = error.$metadata;
console.log({ requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId });
}
