In this article, we would like to show you how to use SQL FULL OUTER JOIN in Node.js.

Note: at the end of this article you can find database preparation SQL queries.

const { Client } = require('pg');

const client = new Client({
    host: '127.0.0.1',
    user: 'postgres',
    database: 'database_name',
    password: 'password',
    port: 5432,
});

const fetchUserDepartments = async () => {
    const query = `SELECT * 
                   FROM "users" 
                   FULL OUTER JOIN "departments" ON "departments"."id" = "users"."department_id"`;
    try {
        await client.connect();                     // gets connection
        const { rows } = await client.query(query); // sends queries
        console.table(rows);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error(error.stack);
    } finally {
        await client.end();                         // closes connection
    }
};

fetchUserDepartments();

Output:

	"department_name" VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
	"location" VARCHAR(50) NULL,
	PRIMARY KEY ("id")
);

CREATE TABLE "users" (

	"name" VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
	"surname" VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
	"department_id" INTEGER,
	PRIMARY KEY ("id"),
