Last year, I wanted to learn a bit about how easy it would be to deploy a python app via web assembly to the browser and decided to make a wrapper around the amazing sqlglot by Toby Mao and the rest of the team. The tool lets you paste in Sql queries and translate them between the available sql dialects in sqlglot. It also gives you parse diagnostics and the ability to easily share queries via storing all the state in the url. The stack that was used is typescript for the UI and pyodide to integrate with Sqlglot, which does the heavy lifting. It's more of a toy app but I've found some use…

I have been working on SQL Explorer, an open source, Django-based reporting and query tool for (gulp!) almost ten years. It's a tool that fits just right for me and many others, and I love and use almost every day. Write SQL, share results, do some analysis, get insight. No surprises. A live demo instance is here (no login or anything required): https://demo.sqlexplorer.io/ And here's a fairly unprofessional, but very enthusiastic, video tour: https://sql-explorer.s3.amazonaws.com/Sql+Explorer+5.mp4 The UI is constrained enough that there's very little to learn,…

Hi HN, I built py-sql-cleaner, a CLI for formatting SQL embedded in Python files. Python formatters handle Python syntax. They do not format SQL written inside Python code. On the other hand, SQL formatters usually target SQL files or raw SQL text, not SQL embedded inside a Python file. Still, I think it is not uncommon to find long SQL queries inside Python codebases. py-sql-cleaner detects embedded SQL inside Python files and works only on that SQL. The main things it can do are: find the SQL, format it in place, or extract it into a .sql file. It avoids rewriting SQL that depends on…

Hey Hacker News! I wanted to share the open source project I have been working on during the last year: SQLPage, a tool to build small web applications entirely in SQL. Building web applications with just SQL isn't as crazy as it seems. Most simple applications can be expressed declaratively as just data queries that fill pre-defined web components. I'd love to hear your feedback and thoughts on it. Would you potentially use it? How can it be improved? Website: https://sql.ophir.dev/ Github: https://github.com/lovasoa/SQLpage Example app:…

Hey all, I just released v2.0.0 of FilterQL, a query language and TypeScript library. This version adds support for Operations, which allow you to transform the data after filtering. If you think this would be useful in a project you're working on, give it a try and let me know what you think!
