Learn how to integrate Cvent with JetBrains RubyMine using the CData JDBC Driver for live SQL based access to Cvent data.

CData JDBC Driver for Cvent offer standardized JDBC connectivity to 200+ data sources, allowing developers to treat SaaS and cloud APIs as relational databases. By integrating these drivers into JetBrains RubyMine, user can connect IDE directly to external systems like CRM or ERP platforms, enabling SQL based data access and real-time querying.

RubyMine is a advanced IDE for Ruby and Rails development that offers advanced coding assistance, debugging, and database tools. Through CData JDBC integration, developers can link RubyMine with Cvent for easy access to live Cvent data.

Overview

Here is a quick overview of the integration process:

  1. Set Up Environment: Configure the Ruby interpreter in RubyMine
  2. Install JDBC Driver: Add the CData JDBC Driver for Cvent to RubyMine's database configuration
  3. Connect: Establish a live connection to Cvent and begin querying Cvent data

Configure the Ruby Interpreter in RubyMine

After installing the Ruby interpreter, open RubyMine and configure the environment.

  1. Create a New Empty Project
  2. Select the interpreter for example, C:\Ruby34-x64\bin uby.exe
  3. Click Create to initialize the project

Add the CData JDBC Driver for Cvent

Next, configure the CData JDBC Driver for Cvent within RubyMine.

  1. Go to View, select Tool Windows and click Database to open the database panel
  2. Click the "+" icon and choose Driver from the dropdown
  3. In the Data Sources and Drivers window:
    • Provide a Name for the driver (e.g., CData Cvent JDBC)
    • Click "+" in the Driver Files section and select Custom JARs
    • Locate and open the cdata.jdbc.cvent.jar file
    • Set the Class to cdata.jdbc.cvent.CventDriver

Create the Cvent data source

  1. Click Create Data Source and choose the newly created driver
  2. In the connection window, confirm that the selected driver is correct
  3. Enter your connection details:
    • Name: Cvent Connection
    • URL: jdbc:cvent:User=username;Password=password;
    • Username and Password: User Cvent credentials
  4. Click Test Connection. If successful, click OK to save

Query live Cvent data

Once the connection is established, you can query live Cvent data directly within RubyMine.

  1. Open the Database Console
  2. Run SQL queries, for example:
    SELECT * FROM Cvent data_Table LIMIT 10;

Developers can now easily access and manipulate Cvent data using SQL inside RubyMine bridging code development and live data access in one unified environment.
