dyna4JDBC

A JDBC driver for running alternative JVM language scripts and external programs.

Introduction

dyna4JDBC is a JDBC driver, that allows running alternative JVM language scripts (Groovy, JavaScript, Scala, Jython, Clojure, BeanShell, R (Renjin), JRuby etc.) or external console-oriented programs via the JDBC API.

Mainly targeted at allowing JDBC-enabled business intelligence applications to run various scripts instead of SQL easily, dyna4JDBC captures and parses the output of scripts/external programs and presents that as a standard JDBC ResultSet, allowing the output to be processed further for various purposes like building complex reports quickly and analysis with other tools.

Sample

NOTE: This is just a sample - the project's primary goal is empowering Java Reporting and ETL applications to call dynamic script langauges through the JDBC API, and NOT programmatic usage.

package sample;

import java.sql.*;

public class HelloWorldSample {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException {

        String url = "jdbc:dyna4jdbc:scriptengine:JavaScript";

        try (Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url)) {

            try (Statement statement = connection.createStatement()) {

                statement.executeUpdate(" var msg = 'Hello World'; ");
                try (ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery(" print(msg); ")) {
                    while (resultSet.next()) {
                        String string = resultSet.getString(1);

                        System.out.println(string);
                    }
                }

            }
        }
    }
}
