I am new to Unix scripting. I have an oracle DB which has a username, password, hostname, port and servicename. I want to connect the database and run the query and in the end the result should be email to me or other people. Result should be displayed in the body of an email.

This is a sample shell script to connect through SQL*Plus, SPOOL the output and send it as email in the message body.
#!/bin/sh -- or bash or ksh
sqlplus -s /nolog <<EOF
CONNECT username/password@sid
SPOOL /u01/spool.csv
--do something
SPOOL OFF
EXIT;
EOF
mail -s "Subject" [email protected] < /u01/spool.csv

PFB functionality breakup to connect oracle, email query result(as body) using shell Script with example :
- Connect to Oracle Database
- Set Headers for formatted output
- Run sql query and store result to temp file(query_output.dat)

Send output as body. Ex
mailx -s "subject" mail_address <query_output.dat rm query_output.dat
