Oracle database
-
Is it possible to query an Oracle database from Pytonista?
-
@gdcs - Unfortunately, the python Oracle client cx_Oracle includes libraries as it's closed source. Python modules that load external libraries aren't allowed in iOS - they'd have to be compiled into Pythonista as a static whole (which isn't possible for Oracle's client as they don't provide the source). There's no pure python client for Oracle and likely never will be. Even wonderful third-party toolsets like SQLalchemy still rely on cx_Oracle underneath to do the actual communication to the Oracle database servers.
TL;DR: Nope.
