Oracle support

[ahjulstad]

Would there be interest in adding support for Oracle databases? At work, I interface a large Oracle database quite a lot, and compositional queries in an interactive (but performant) language like Julia would be nice.

I threw an AI agent at the problem: my fork, and it ended up requiring some changes to Oracle.jl as well. Oracle.jl fork.

Perhaps Oracle is too much of a mess to include, or support, in the main FunSQL codebase?

Oracle support is certainly within the scope of FunSQL. Do you know if Oracle has a free, or at least cheap version that can be used for testing?

There is a free version available. My testing setup is here, where everything runs in devcontainers with docker compose.
