ORACLE RANDOM Synonym

[capitantyler]

I am working with a sample in a Oracle ODBC.

con <- DBI::dbConnect(
  drv = odbc::odbc(), 
  dsn = "oracle_dsn"
)

my_table <- tbl(con, in_schema("my_schema", "my_table"))

n <- 100
my_table  %>% slice_sample(n = n) %>% show_query()

Showing this query

SELECT
  "column 1",
  "column 2",
   ....
FROM (
  SELECT
      "column 1",
     "column 2",
       ....,
    ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY **RANDOM()**) AS "q02"
  FROM ("my_schema"."my_table") 
) "q01"
WHERE ("q02" <= 100)

But ORACLE does not recognize RANDOM without the package prefix dbms_random (that statement works replacing RANDOM() by dbms_random.RANDOM()).

I do not have privileges to make that synonym in my Oracle database, but I thought should do not assume a synonym.

Could you add the prefix or show me how to? Thanks.

I added a PR to fix this. Can you confirm that this fixes the issue? You can install it via remotes::install_github("tidyverse/dbplyr#1002").

It already works. Thanks!
