I was using the Instance Viewer today and ran into the drill down for Storage.

Instance Viewer, whiz-bang!

Let’s take a closer look at that report.

Some of this isn’t going to work in a CLI…

I like this report enough, that I want to be able to run it in SQLcl. SQLcl is a command-line interface, so I’ll have to make a few changes.

The links won’t work, boo. Those are easy to fix up – just remove the SQLDev:Link code. The Used (proportion) column is a Gauge, so that probably won’t work either…

Side bar:

Adding Commands/Reports to SQLcl

I’m going to use the ALIAS feature to create a ‘SPACE’ command.

I’m going to need some SQL first, so I clear the Statements log panel, and run the report again to get the raw SQL.

The Statements panel is only available for Oracle THIN JDBC connections.

Now that I have the base SQL, the main thing is to handle the Gauge. So I go with a Nested Case, and I’ll use some Pipe (|) characters to denote the green, orange, and red areas.

In SQLcl, it’s easy to make this report a new command.

You can use binds too if you want…

No worries, the code is below if you want to skip a few steps.

But now I can run it:

Tip: use a fixed width font when typing and whitespace matters!

Let’s blow that up a bit…

Not sophisticated, but it’ll work.

My Question/Challenge To You

Are you using SQLcl?

If so, have you used the Alias feature?

If your answers are anything but ‘yes’ and ‘yes’ – why not? And if so, share what you’ve built, we’d love to see it!

    Hi
    I have noticed slight shift in proportion buckets. The first one is 15 percent, the last on is 5 and the rest are 10. Why is that?

    • With autoextend, it’s almost a moot issue, but in my head, i didn’t really care until it hit 95% vs 91%.

      It’s your SQL at this point, so you can trash it, change it, or whatever.

      This post was an attempt to share with readers about 4-5 concepts in SQLDev and SQLcl in hopes they would use their imagination to do even cooler things with it in their every day work lives.
