Connecting Java and ParadeDB with ADBC

Instructions

Tip

If you already have a ParadeDB instance running, skip the steps to set up and clean up ParadeDB.

Prerequisites

1. Install Maven

2. Install dbc

Set up ParadeDB

1. Install Docker

2. Start a ParadeDB instance:

   docker run -d --rm --name paradedb -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password -p 5432:5432 paradedb/paradedb

Connect to ParadeDB

1. Install the PostgreSQL ADBC driver:

   dbc install postgresql

2. Customize the main method in Example.java

   • Change the connection arguments in the params.put() calls
     • Format uri according to the connection URI format used by PostgreSQL, or keep it as is
   • If you changed which database you're connecting to, also change the SQL SELECT statement in stmt.setSqlQuery()

3. Run the Java program:

   mvn compile exec:exec

Clean up

Stop the Docker container running ParadeDB:

docker stop paradedb
