The idea behind this project is to connect individuals who are looking to get their blood donated. The result is a simple in-browser app that pushes user's entries into a SQL database.

Spin up the database (I've used ElephantSQL's free tier for demoing purposes)
touch elephantsql.js
var pg = require('pg');

var conString = "INSERT_YOUR_POSTGRES_URL_HERE" //Can be found in the Details page
var client = new pg.Client(conString);
client.connect(function(err) {
  if(err) {
    return console.error('could not connect to postgres', err);
  }
  client.query('SELECT NOW() AS "theTime"', function(err, result) {
    if(err) {
      return console.error('error running query', err);
    }
    console.log(result.rows[0].theTime);

    client.end();
  });
});
