Oracle Database Connector

This is an Arrow connector to Oracle Database.

Prerequisites

This connector requires Oracle Instant Client installed. To install it, please follow the instructions for your environment here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/instant-client/index-097480.html

The connector also depends on the 'node-oracledb' module. To be able to properly install the connector, please check the prerequisites here: https://github.com/oracle/node-oracledb#-installation

Installation

To install the connector use:

$ appc install connector/appc.oracledb

Configuration

Create appc.oracledb.default.js in <your_project>/conf directory.

Example appc.oracledb.defaults.js content:

module.exports = {
    connectors: {
        'appc.oracledb': {
            // Your connection credentials.
            user: 'hr',
            password: 'welcome',
            connectString: 'localhost/XE',
            // Create models based on your schema that can be used in your API.
            generateModelsFromSchema: true,
            // Whether or not to generate APIs based on the methods in generated models.
            modelAutogen: true
        }
    }
};

This example connector configuration will automatically generate models based on your database schema. If you want to create a custom model, set generateModelsFromSchema: false and reference the documentation for more information how to create models.

Unit Tests

Run the tests:

npm test

The tests will automatically create their own table named "TEST_Post".
