I really like JetBrains products. I use DataGrip all the time in my role as a DBA. I’m in the process of switching our company over the Active Directory logins and wanted to take things for a spin.
DataGrip is a multi-engine database environment. It supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Sybase, DB2, SQLite, HyperSQL, Apache Derby and H2. It includes an editor that provides intelligent coding assistance for editing SQL code such as auto-completion, analysis and navigation. I am having trouble using the LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE statement in Datagrip. Suppose I have sourcedata.csv such as: rating,statement -2,'I'm hungry!' 5,'I'm satisfied.' 1,'Ok, but could be better.' After running the following code block in DataGrip.
Being that most of my work is done on a Mac, DataGrip is pretty much the best tool available for working with a database. This How-To should work on any OS, I just haven’t tested it on any others (yet).
Enough talk: time for action.
The main library you’ll be working with is ADAL4J (https://github.com/AzureAD/azure-activedirectory-library-for-java/wiki/ADAL4J-Basics). The simplest way to do this step, in my opinion, is to use a barebones Maven pom.xml. That way you don’t have to compile from source and find all the dependencies manually. Horray!
If you don’t have Maven (https://maven.apache.org/) installed you’ll need it. If you prefer Gradle, I’m sure the same can be accomplished with that.
This is what my pom.xml looks like:
Now run this command wherever your pom.xml is at:
It will create a “lib” directory containing all the jars you need.
1. In the Data Sources and Drivers
window (File menu), select the Azure (Microsoft)
driver. In the Driver files
pane, click the +
button and select “Custom JARs...
”
2. Navigate to the JARs fetched in Step 1. Select all of them.
Your screen should look something like this (aside from the fancy blurs to hide my super secret info).
There is only one thing you need to change for Active Directory authentication. The authentication method. It’s really easy.
At this point, I’m assuming you have an existing connection. If not, create one and select the Azure (Microsoft)
driver.
Navigate to the Advanced
tab. I like to sort the options by Name. However you do it, find the setting named “authentication
.”
Click in the Value column and select ActiveDirectoryPassword
(if you’re on Windows™ and use integrated AD… select ActiveDirectoryIntegrated
).
I imagine I don’t have to tell you to “click OK or Apply.”
At this point you should be able to log in to your database instance. Of course, that assumes your credentials and hostname are correct. I hope this helps!
