通过JDBC解决Python在ARM上的Oracle访问

Oracle Client是一套闭源的客户端，在哪个平台上可以使用完全由Oracle官方决定。如附录所示，Oracle Client并不直接支持ARM上的访问。

那么是不是Python等语言就无法在ARM上访问Oracle了呢？在Stackoverflow上也有人讨论了这样几个方法：

• 解析Oracle Client Interface 通讯协议，可以做但是成本高且有法律和升级失效等风险
• 使用X86作为中转，但是不纯粹且依赖链长
• 使用Python-JDBC，已经有成熟方案JayDeBeApi https://pypi.org/project/JayDeBeApi/，通过JPype启动一个JVM进行中转
  此外，还有通过pyarrow.jvm加速Python访问JDBC的方法，请参考我的上一篇转发文章https://blog.csdn.net/gikod/article/details/105189589 。

在Stackoverflow上，已经有人验证过树莓派ARM访问Oracle数据库。

$ pip install JayDeBeApi

>>> import jaydebeapi
>>> #conn = jaydebeapi.connect("org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver",
... #                          "jdbc:hsqldb:mem:.",
... #                          ["SA", ""],
... #                          "/path/to/hsqldb.jar",)
>>> conn=jaydebeapi.connect('oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver',
'[admin]/[root]@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=helloworld.com)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=hello42)))',
jars='/home/pi/ojdbc6.jar')
>>> curs = conn.cursor()
>>> curs.execute('create table CUSTOMER'
...                '("CUST_ID" INTEGER not null,'
...                ' "NAME" VARCHAR not null,'
...                ' primary key ("CUST_ID"))'
...             )
>>> curs.execute("insert into CUSTOMER values (1, 'John')")
>>> curs.execute("select * from CUSTOMER")
>>> curs.fetchall()
[(1, u'John')]
>>> curs.close()
>>> conn.close()
