Tedious (node implementation of TDS)

Tedious is a pure-Javascript implementation of the TDS protocol, which is used to interact with instances of Microsoft's SQL Server. It is intended to be a fairly slim implementation of the protocol, with not too much additional functionality.

NOTE: New columns are nullable by default as of version 1.11.0

Previous behavior can be restored using config.options.enableAnsiNullDefault = false. See pull request 230.

NOTE: Default login behavior has changed slightly as of version 1.2

See the changelog for version history.
