database: 'test'
}, function(err, result) {
/* result = {
tables: {
person: {
name: 'person',
columns: {
'id': { name: 'id', notNull: true, primaryKey: true, type: 'integer', length: '11' },
'name': { name: 'name', notNull: true, type: 'varchar', length: '255' },
'email': { name: 'email', notNull: false, type: 'varchar', length: '100' },
