Databse connection timeout

[willrnch]

Keeping connection open cause problems with services (like cleardb) that kill the connection after a few times.

You mean auto-reconnect right?

I'm working on something but for now it's just for mysql, I still have to see how the other drivers can handle it.

Usage:

orm.settings.set("connection.reconnect", true);
orm.connect("...", function (err, db) {
    // ...
});

This option automatically reconnects (only mysql for now) when connection drops. I'm not sure this is what you're looking for. Perhaps you're better with the pool option, which only connects (if needed) when a query is required:

orm.connect("mysql://..../database?pool=true", function (err, db) {
    // ...
});
