How to Connect Your Node.js App on Cloud Run to Cloud SQL Using Sequelize

Deploying applications in the cloud can be a tedious process, especially when it comes to configuring connections with databases. One common scenario developers encounter is connecting a Node.js app running on Google Cloud Run to a Cloud SQL database using Sequelize ORM. If you're having trouble with this configuration, you’re not alone. In this guide, we'll address this common problem, explain the nuances of the connection process, and provide a clear solution.

The Problem

You have a Node.js application that needs to connect to a Cloud SQL MySQL database using Sequelize as the Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) layer. While the application works seamlessly with a local proxy during development, deploying it on Google Cloud Run presents certain challenges. Specifically, the application fails to locate the database instance when deployed.

Here’s a brief look at the issues being faced:

You attempt to set the host property in the connection configuration but face connection timeouts.

Using the public IP results in the app timing out every time.

Misplacement of UNIX socket paths in the configuration.

Understanding the Solution

Diagnose the Misconfiguration

Often, issues like this stem from a common misconception regarding configuration settings. The key takeaway from the original question is that specifying the correct properties in your Sequelize configuration is crucial.

Correct Configuration for Sequelize

Instead of assigning the UNIX socket path to the host property, you need to utilize the socketPath property nested within the dialectOptions. Below are the steps to correctly configure the Sequelize connection:

Connection Configuration:
Make adjustments to your Sequelize configuration. Here’s how it should look:

Verify the Connection-Name:
Ensure that <connection-name-here> is correctly set to your Cloud SQL instance's connection name. This is usually formatted as project-id:region:instance-id.

Deploy and Test:
After modifying the configuration, redeploy your service in Google Cloud Run and test if your application can connect to Cloud SQL without issues.

Additional Troubleshooting Steps

If you still encounter issues:

Check IAM Roles: Ensure that your Cloud Run service account has the required roles to access Cloud SQL.

Networking: Verify that the correct network settings are applied for your Cloud SQL instance.

Logs: Examine logs in Google Cloud Console to identify errors during connection attempts.

Conclusion

By addressing the simple misconfiguration of the Sequelize connection properties, you can easily connect your Node.js application deployed on Google Cloud Run to your Cloud SQL database. Following the outlined steps will not only boost your productivity but also save you from the frustrations commonly cited by many developers encountering similar issues.

With the correct configuration, your app can robustly access data stored in Cloud SQL, allowing you to focus on what matters most — building amazing features for your users!
