Node-RED Oracle Database nodes

Forked version with updated drivers to support latest node versions

node-red-contrib-oracledb-mod is a Node-RED package that connects directly to an Oracle database server. It currently contains a query and a configuration node to connect to Oracle databases for Node-RED storage.

It uses the oracledb library for the Oracle database connectivity.

Installation

If you have installed Node-RED as a global node.js package (you use the command node-red anywhere to start it), you need to install node-red-contrib-oracledb-mod as a global package as well:

$[sudo] npm install -g node-red-contrib-oracledb-mod

If you have installed the .zip or cloned your own copy of Node-RED from github, you can install it as a normal npm package inside the Node-RED project directory:

<path/to/node-red>$ npm install node-red-contrib-oracledb-mod

Overview

This is a Node-Red Oracle database input/output node. The function it provides depends on the query that is sent to the oracle database. An INSERT query stores data in the database and a SELECT query can send data to another node.

To get started, you must install an Oracle Instant Client on the server. Follow the directions for your OS and note the path in which you installed the Instant Client.

If you are going to use a TNS Name (with a "Wallet" connection - such as with Autonomous DB), install your wallet contents in the /network/admin subdirectory of your Instant Client.
