En caso de que su texto esté comprimido dentro del blob usando el algoritmo DEFLATE y sea bastante grande, puede usar esta función para leerlo
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE read_gzipped_entity_package AS
FUNCTION read_entity(entity_id IN VARCHAR2)
RETURN VARCHAR2;
END read_gzipped_entity_package;
/
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY read_gzipped_entity_package IS
FUNCTION read_entity(entity_id IN VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
l_blob BLOB;
l_blob_length NUMBER;
l_amount BINARY_INTEGER := 10000; -- must be <= ~32765.
l_offset INTEGER := 1;
l_buffer RAW(20000);
l_text_buffer VARCHAR2(32767);
BEGIN
-- Get uncompressed BLOB
SELECT UTL_COMPRESS.LZ_UNCOMPRESS(COMPRESSED_BLOB_COLUMN_NAME)
INTO l_blob
FROM TABLE_NAME
WHERE ID = entity_id;
-- Figure out how long the BLOB is.
l_blob_length := DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(l_blob);
-- We'll loop through the BLOB as many times as necessary to
-- get all its data.
FOR i IN 1..CEIL(l_blob_length/l_amount) LOOP
-- Read in the given chunk of the BLOB.
DBMS_LOB.READ(l_blob
, l_amount
, l_offset
, l_buffer);
-- The DBMS_LOB.READ procedure dictates that its output be RAW.
-- This next procedure converts that RAW data to character data.
l_text_buffer := UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_VARCHAR2(l_buffer);
-- For the next iteration through the BLOB, bump up your offset
-- location (i.e., where you start reading from).
l_offset := l_offset + l_amount;
END LOOP;
RETURN l_text_buffer;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('!ERROR: ' || SUBSTR(SQLERRM,1,247));
END;
END read_gzipped_entity_package;
/
Luego ejecuta seleccionar para obtener texto
SELECT read_gzipped_entity_package.read_entity('entity_id') FROM DUAL;
Espero que esto ayude a alguien.
