Using the go-ora database driver

The scraper supports compiling with the go-ora database driver. By default, it compiles with the godror database driver, which uses CGO and Oracle Instant Client. The go-ora driver is useful when you need a pure-Go binary without Oracle Instant Client.

Configuring go-ora

Because go-ora does not use Oracle Instant Client, provide connection string options in each database url property:

databases:
  go_ora_db:
    username: myuser
    password: ******
    url: my_tnsname?wallet=/path/to/wallet&ssl=1

Build with go-ora

To build using go-ora instead of godror, set TAGS=goora CGO_ENABLED=0:

make go-build TAGS=goora CGO_ENABLED=0
