how to insert sharepoint list to Oracle DB using Powershell

I would like to retrieve some list items 开发者_如何学Gofrom a sharepoint list and then load it into an Oracle table.Is this feasible using powershell. Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks ** What would be the best way to prepare the table in powershell before inserting into Oracle?

I've done this with SharePoint and SQL Server. There's two parts first you'll want to query a SharePoint list as documented in my blog post:

Second you'll want insert into a table. In SQL Server I would use the SQLBulkCopy class, there's a similar class for Oracle, but its probably just as easy to generate and execute insert statements from the DataTable returned from SharePoint. This piece will require a bit of work. Take a look at $dt variable and generate insert statemens. As an example

$dt | foreach {"INSERT myOracleTable VALUES ('$($.Field1)','$($.Field2)');"}

You could generate a file and use SQLPLus to execute the file:

$dt | foreach {"INSERT myOracleTable VALUES ('$($.Field1)','$($.Field2)');"} >> ./out.sql

Or, I've got a two-part series for querying Oracle from Powershell here:

Edit addded example:

#Select
$connString = ‘Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;WSS;IMEX=2;RetrieveIds=Yes; DATABASE=http://sharepoint.acme.com/IT/DBAdmin/;LIST={a113df9b-e56e-49d2-b786-03d170d18dbc};‘
$spConn = new-object System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection($connString)
$spConn.open()
$qry=‘Select * from list’
$cmd = new-object System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand($qry,$spConn)
$da = new-object System.Data.OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter($cmd)
$dt = new-object System.Data.dataTable
$da.fill($dt) > $null
$dt

You could also use Sharepoint web services to retrieve the information, I've described it somewhat here. I don't have much experience in accessing databases from Powershell, but found a nice blog post here that should fit the bill.
