Scriptella 1.5 is released

Scriptella 1.5 is now available. This is a focused compatibility and usability release with a Java 17 baseline.

Highlights

• First-class PostgreSQL and MariaDB adapters with canonical JDBC URL autodetection.
• An experimental --check command for loading and statically checking ETL configuration without opening configured connections or executing it.
• Credential-safe diagnostics for missing, broken, or URL-incompatible JDBC drivers.
• Updated MySQL driver support, plus recorded validation for PostgreSQL, MariaDB, H2, and a targeted MySQL 8.4.11 / Connector/J 26.7.0 lane.
• Maintained optional integrations: Apache Velocity Engine 2.4.1, Commons Lang 3.20.0, and Spring Framework 7.0.9.
• Release validation on JDK 17 and JDK 25 while Scriptella artifacts retain Java 17 bytecode.

Oracle and SQL Server remain adapter-level, provisional support without a real-server validation matrix. Vendor JDBC drivers are supplied by the application or connection classpath.

Install

Download the binary, source, or examples archives from GitHub Releases. The binary archive includes the packaged launcher and examples.

For a user-local installation:

curl -fsSL https://scriptella.org/install.sh | sh

Scriptella requires Java 17 or newer. If Java 8 compatibility is required, use Scriptella 1.3.

Maven

Add Scriptella Core from Maven Central:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.scriptella</groupId>
  <artifactId>scriptella-core</artifactId>
  <version>1.5</version>
</dependency>

Add org.scriptella:scriptella-drivers:1.5 when using the packaged driver module, and provide vendor JDBC drivers separately as required by your connections.
