This project contains script-language containers for the user-defined functions (UDF's) that can be used in the EXASOL database (version 7.0.0 or later). Using script-language containers, user can extend the UDF's with additional libraries and tools, such as Python or R packages and their dependencies.
A script language container consists of a Linux container with a complete Linux distribution and all required libraries and a script client. The script client is responsible for the communication with the database and for executing the UDF code.
We provide in this repository several flavors of script-language containers, such as the current standard implementation of the script client with support for Python 2/3, R und Java. A flavor contains the build description of a container. We will show below how to customize and build the different script-language containers.
You can find pre-built containers in the release section of this repository. If you are interested in the script client you find more details here.
