I am trying to connect to a SAP HANA database from a Linux Dockerfile. Currently having trouble with installing the HDBODBC Driver in the Dockerfile or finding resources for it.
Note: I am familiar with connecting to SAP HANA without docker and on Windows using a connection string
Dockerfile currently:
FROM --platform=linux/amd64 node:16.13.0
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm install
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y unixodbc unixodbc-dev
RUN apt-get install odbcinst
COPY . .
EXPOSE 8080
CMD ["node", "src/index.js"]
When I run my code with just the connection string I am seeing:
[Error: [odbc] Error connecting to the database] {
odbcErrors: [
{
state: '01000',
code: 0,
message: "[unixODBC][Driver Manager]Can't open lib 'HDBODBC' : file not found"
}
]
}
Which makes me think I don't have the driver installed
You need the HANA Client. Try here: https://tools.hana.ondemand.com/#hanatools
