I am trying to load my oracle external table dynamically with multiple .csv files. I am able to load one .csv file but as soon as I alter with new .csv file name, the table gets rewritten.
I have multiple .csv files in a folder which changes everyday with a prefix of the date. Eg file name FileName1_20200607.csv, FileName2_20200607.csv
I dont think there is a way to write 'FileName*20200607.csv' to pick all the files for that date?
My code:
......
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
( TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY "DATA_DIR_PATH"
ACCESS PARAMETERS
( RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE BADFILE CRRENG_ORA_APPS_OUT_DIR
: 'Filebad' DISCARDFILE DATA_OUT_PATH :
'Filedesc.dsc' LOGFILE DATA_OUT_PATH :
'Filelog.log' SKIP 0 FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED
BY '"' AND '"' MISSING FIELD VALUES ARE NULL REJECT ROWS WITH ALL NULL
FIELDS )
LOCATION
( 'FileName1_20200607.csv',
'FileName2_20200607.csv'
)
);
But I want to populate these file name dynamically. It should pick up all the file names from the DATA_DIR. There are about 50 other file names. I can add Unix script if need be.
