- Second step requires that you pip3 install the oracledb library:
sudo pip3 install oracledb --upgrade

Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable Collecting oracledb Downloading oracledb-1.4.2-cp310-cp310-manylinux_2_17_x86_64.manylinux2014_x86_64.whl (8.6 MB) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 8.6/8.6 MB 2.7 MB/s eta 0:00:00 Requirement already satisfied: cryptography>=3.2.1 in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (from oracledb) (3.4.8) Installing collected packages: oracledb Successfully installed oracledb-1.4.2 - Third step requires you write a Python program to test your connection to Oracle Database 23c Free, like:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
#!/usr/bin/python # Import the Oracle library. import oracledb try: # Create a connection to local Docker or Podman installation. db = oracledb.connect(user='c##student', password='student', dsn='localhost:51521/FREE') # Print a connection message. print("Connected to the Oracle", db.version, "database.") except oracledb.DatabaseError as e: error, = e.args print(sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Code:", error.code) print(sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Message:", error.message) finally: # Close connection. db.close()
The 51521 port is the recommended port when setting up Docker or Podman services, however, it can be set to any port above 1024.
It should print:
Connected to the Oracle 23.3.0.23.9 database.
- Fourth step requires you write a Python program to test querying data from an Oracle Database 23c Free instance. I created the following avenger table and seeded it with six Avengers.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
/* Conditionally drop the table. */ DROP TABLE IF EXISTS avenger; /* Create the table. */ CREATE TABLE avenger ( avenger_id NUMBER , first_name VARCHAR2(20) , last_name VARCHAR2(20) , character_name VARCHAR2(20)); /* Seed the table with data. */ INSERT INTO avenger VALUES (1,'Anthony','Stark','Iron Man'); INSERT INTO avenger VALUES (2,'Thor','Odinson','God of Thunder'); INSERT INTO avenger VALUES (3,'Steven','Rogers','Captain America'); INSERT INTO avenger VALUES (4,'Bruce','Banner','Hulk'); INSERT INTO avenger VALUES (5,'Clinton','Barton','Hawkeye'); INSERT INTO avenger VALUES (6,'Natasha','Romanoff','Black Widow');
Then, I extended the program logic to include a cursor and for loop to read the values from the avenger table:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32
#!/usr/bin/python # Import the Oracle library. import oracledb try: # Create a connection to local Docker or Podman installation. db = oracledb.connect(user='c##student', password='student', dsn='localhost:51521/FREE') # Create a cursor. cursor = db.cursor() # Execute a query. cursor.execute("SELECT character_name " + ", first_name " + ", last_name " + "FROM avenger " + "ORDER BY character_name") # Read the contents of the cursor. for row in cursor: print(row[0] + ':',row[2] + ',',row[1]) except oracledb.DatabaseError as e: error, = e.args print(sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Code:", error.code) print(sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Message:", error.message) finally: # Close cursor and connection. cursor.close() db.close()
The 51521 port is the recommended port when setting up Docker or Podman services, however, it can be set to any port above 1024.
It should print:
Black Widow: Romanoff, Natasha Captain America: Rogers, Steven God of Thunder: Odinson, Thor Hawkeye: Barton, Clinton Hulk: Banner, Bruce Iron Man: Stark, Anthony
- Fifth step requires you write a Python program to test querying data filtered by a local variable from an Oracle Database 23c Free instance. This example looks only for the Hulk among the six Avengers.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36
#!/usr/bin/python # Import the Oracle library. import oracledb try: # Create a connection to local Docker or Podman installation. db = oracledb.connect(user='c##student', password='student', dsn='localhost:51521/FREE') # Create a cursor. cursor = db.cursor() # Execute a query. stmt = "SELECT character_name " \ ", first_name " \ ", last_name " \ "FROM avenger " \ "WHERE character_name = :avenger " \ "ORDER BY character_name" # Execute with bind variable. cursor.execute(stmt, avenger = "Hulk") # Read the contents of the cursor. for row in cursor: print(row[0] + ':',row[2] + ',',row[1]) except oracledb.DatabaseError as e: error, = e.args print(sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Code:", error.code) print(sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Message:", error.message) finally: # Close cursor and connection. cursor.close() db.close()
It should print:
Hulk: Banner, Bruce
As always, I hope this puts everything together for setting up Python with Oracle Database 23c Free.
