We recently reviewed 'external authentication' and 'proxy connections' support in node-oracledb and did a few tweaks that will appear in the future node-oracledb 3.1. You can use 'external authentication' to connect without requiring a password being stored in your Node.js applications. This is useful, for example, to authenticate via LDAP or use an Oracle Wallet. The idea of a proxy connection is to create a schema in one database user name. Privilege is granted on that...

The Oracle Linux group is pushing forward hard and their latest news is that Instant Client RPMs for Oracle Linux are downloadable for Oracle Linux 7 and Oracle Linux 6 without needing a click-through. This means you can now more easily provision systems using an automated install process. Sergio's blog post has the announcement and steps to use the packages. Our Instant Client 18.3 Dockerfile has also been updated. As you'd expect, 'docker build' now does the download and...

The JavaScript JSON.parse() and JSON.stringify() methods make it easy to work with JavaScript objects in Node.js and store them in Oracle Database using the node-oracledb module. I'll start with some examples showing a simple, naive, implementation which you can use with all versions of Oracle Database. Then I'll go on to show some of the great JSON functionality introduced in Oracle Database 12.1.0.2. The examples below use the async/await syntax available in Node 7.6, but...

Some of our node-oracledb users recently commented they have moved from REST to GraphQL so I thought I'd take a look at what it is all about. I can requote the GraphQL talking points with the best of them, but things like "Declarative Data Fetching" and "a schema with a defined type system is the contract between client and server" are easier to undstand with examples. In brief, GraphQL: Provides a single endpoint that responds to queries. No need to create multiple endpoints...

Native Oracle Database Continuous Query Notification (CQN) code has landed in the node-oracledb master branch on GitHub. If you want to play with it, but don't want to wait for the next binary node-oracledb release, you can compile node-oracledb yourself and play with this demo. [Update: node-oracledb 2.3 has been released and binaries are now available.] Some of you may already be using CQN via its PL/SQL APIs. The new, native support in node-oracledb makes it all so...
