I tried to install the node-red-contrib-oracledb node so I could read/write to our Oracle DB. I have setup the oracledb node module (see install instructions here: https://github.com/oracle/node-oracledb/blob/master/INSTALL.md) using traditional node applications in the past and the issue is that it needs access to a couple of oracle provided libraries to complete the install. I assume this means I would need command line access to the groovBox to be able to make this install work… is command line access an option on the groovBox or is there another possible solution to this?
