Storing Reports in ORACLE Database

By default Sahi stores its reports in a H2 database which is bundled in Sahi. Sahi reports can now also be logged in ORACLE database. To store in a ORACLE database, do the following:

Create a Database Connection

Create a database connection in Oracle using any Oracle client (Oracle SQL Developer). Let us assume that the name of the database connection is sahireports

To achieve database connection to sahireports follow the below steps,

Assuming you have installed Oracle Database and Oracle Client (Oracle SQL Developer).

Connect to SYSTEM and run the below query to create, connect and grant privileges to the user.

CREATE USER sahireports IDENTIFIED BY Sahipro1;
GRANT CONNECT TO sahireports;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES TO sahireports IDENTIFIED BY Sahipro1;

Now, you can successfully connect to sahireports

Add ORACLE Driver Jars to Sahi Classpath

Download the ORACLE Connector, extract and copy ojdbc.jar file to sahi/userdata/extlib folder (create if needed).

Point Sahi to use the ORACLE Database

Add the following to userdata.properties in sahi/userdata/config folder

# Specifies database type.
# The inbuilt options are "mysql", "h2", "mssql" and "oracle"
# Change jdbc parameters accordingly
db.type=oracle

#JDBC parameters for oracle database
db.driver_name=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
db.jdbc_url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:oracle
db.user_name=sahireports
db.password=Sahipro1

Change the db.user_name and db.password as required.

Restart and Run

Restart Sahi. This will create the required tables in the database.

Run a script and check!
