Dynamic DB connections - Will they work in 3.5.0+?

Wappler General

I use SC data bindings to set connection settings for a dynamic connection at the moment. With the new Global approach, will this still work?

A bit more detail:
I have two database connections in each SC Action file. One for a test DB (fixed host, user and pw) and the other for dynamic connection details using data bindings (from a previous query). I use the test DB connection when adjusting queries/testing but then switch to the dynamic connection for each query/update/insert when publishing.

The test DB has the same structure as the customers’ ones (synchronised structures) so I can populate schema etc.

I don’t want to update and find everything breaks as I appreciate I’m not doing the same as the vast majority (if not all) of other Wappler users.

Hi @george,
Do you know if bound values in DB connections will work with the Global approach in 3.5+? I’m holding off upgrade as I need to be sure it won’t cause problems.

I am using bindings in my db.json file on my nodejs project.

Everything is working fine.

Thanks Jonas,
I use PHP but can’t think of a reason it would behave differently to Nodejs. I might just bite the bullet and give it a go. I might be begging @sitestreet for 3.4.2 if I need to revert…
