javascript - Connecting to compose.io rethinkDB server with thinky.io

Question

I am trying to connect to a hosted rethinkDB server on compose.io using thinky.io

According to the docs I can connect with the following using r.connect:

const r = require('rethinkdb');
const fs = require('fs');
fs.readFile('../cacert', function(err, caCert) {
  r.connect({
    authKey: 'MY_KEY',
    host: 'aws-us-east-1-portal.5.dblayer.com',
    port: 11190,
    ssl: {
      ca: caCert
    }
  }, function(error, conn) {
    r.dbList().run(conn, function(err, results) {
      console.log(results);
    })
  })
});

However when using thinky.io it will not take an SSL certificate, and I would connect using the following which does not work:

const thinky = require('thinky')({
  authKey: 'MY_KEY',
  host: 'aws-us-east-1-portal.5.dblayer.com',
  port: 11190,
});

Is there any way I can connect to compose using thinky.io or connect using r.connect() and then use that existing connection with thinky.io?

My node.js server is hosted on heroku.

Thanks

使用同步 readFile

使用同步readFile的解决方案：

在设置rethinkdb数据库时使用thinky.io和compose.io的一种方法是在设置 thinky.io 连接之前读取 ca 证书时使用同步 readFile方法。

const fs = require('fs');
const config = require('../config')

const caCert = fs.readFileSync('cacert')

const thinky = require('thinky')({
  authKey: config.authKey,
  host: 'aws-us-east-1-portal.5.dblayer.com',
  port: 11190,
  ssl: {
    ca: caCert
  }
});

module.exports = thinky;
