modelar-oracle-adapter v3.0.5

Modelar-Oracle-Adapter

This is an adapter for Modelar to connect Oracle database.

Prerequisites

• NodeJS version higher than 4.0.0.

Install

npm install modelar-oracle-adapter --save

How To Use

const { DB } = require("modelar");
const { OracleAdapter } = require("modelar-oracle-adapter");

DB.setAdapter("oracle", OracleAdapter);

// then using the type 'oracle' in db.config
DB.init({
    type: "oracle",
    database: "XE",
    host: "127.0.0.1",
    port: 1521,
    user: "SYSTEM",
    password: "******"
});

A Tip

Be aware, the db.insertId will only be available with this adapter in three cases:

• the object is a Model instance
• the table has a field name id
• manually add returning <column_name> to :id at the end of SQL statements.

If you have problems with installation, please prepare you machine as node-orabledb documentation says. You could try to install node-orabledb before installing modelar-oracle-adapter, that may guarantee a successful installation.

Although this adapter supports NodeJS 4.X, but node-orabledb hasn't been pre-compiled for all versions of NodeJS, if you have installation problems, as I suggested above, go to the documentation for further help.

How To Test

Since the Linux build version of node-orabledb on Travis-CI always failed to be run, if you want to test this package, you need to do the following steps manually in your computer.

Prepare

Before testing this package, you must have an Oracle Database server installed in your machine, if you haven't, please visit the Downloads page for instructions, for a developer, the Express Edition is fine.

If you're not very familiar with Oracle Database, I suggest you do some research on it before doing the test and probably using it.

Test

git clone https://github.com/hyurl/modelar-oracle-adapter
cd modelar-oracle-adapter
npm install
vim test/config/db.js # edit the configuration to connect your database server
npm run init # will create neccesary tables, once tables are created,
npm test # you can run test as many times as you want, even change node versions

I have tested this package in NodeJS 4, 6 and 8, but not 10, the node-orabledb hasn't had a pre-build for NodeJS 10 yet on the day I did the test, you may want to do the test yourself.
