tap-oracle-godzilla 0.1.0

Singer tap for tap-oracle, built with the Meltano Singer SDK.

tap-oracle

Singer tap for Oracle, built with the Meltano Singer SDK.

This connector is intended as a modern replacement path for legacy Oracle taps. It supports Python 3.10+ and uses oracledb with SQLAlchemy reflection.

Features

• Automatic stream discovery from Oracle schemas and tables.
• Oracle connection support with either service_name (preferred) or sid.
• Schema and table filtering for faster discovery on large instances.
• Oracle-aware type mapping for common types such as NUMBER, CLOB, and BLOB.
• Compatible with Meltano pipelines and standard Singer targets.

Requirements

• Python 3.10+
• Network access to Oracle listener (VPN may be required in corporate networks)
• Oracle credentials with read access to the target schema(s)

Installation

Local editable install (recommended for development)

pip install -e .

Verify installation

tap-oracle --about

Meltano usage

Add this extractor from a local checkout:

meltano add extractor tap-oracle --custom

Example project-level invocation:

meltano invoke tap-oracle --about
meltano invoke tap-oracle --discover > catalog.json

Select schema streams:

meltano select tap-oracle "nightly_platerforme-*" "*"

Run pipeline with a target loader:

meltano run tap-oracle target-postgres

Oracle notes

• If you see DPY-6003 / ORA-12505, verify whether your database expects service_name or sid.
• service_name is preferred and supported explicitly by this connector.
• Warnings for unknown Oracle-specific types (for example XMLTYPE, SDO_GEOMETRY) during discovery are usually non-fatal.
