Wishlist: SQL-Query generator about erd-editor

[dineug]

What an interesting feature!
It wasn't on the roadmap.
I'll add it.

Thanks for letting me know.

It's easy for anyone to use it
It's a standard web interface.
It was the use case I thought.

An example of that was vscode extension.

But I think it's not enough if you don't fully support reverse engineering with SQL DDL.

The https://github.com/mWater/jsonql you told me about
I'll refer to it when I develop it. Thank you!

Sorry, this may be OT, but I thought, I use this issue to link interesting stuff related to this here.

https://github.com/danielrearden/sqlmancer

Sqlmancer is a Node.js library that empowers you to effortlessly and efficiently translate GraphQL queries into SQL statements.
Multiple dialect support. Sqlmancer supports Postgres, MySQL, MariaDB and SQLite, enabling you to incorporate it into existing projects regardless of what flavor of SQL you’re using.
Performance. Avoid the N+1 problem by building a single SQL…

I do not want to distract you from your current great work, quite on the contrary, keep it up :-)

Intermediate json format does not exist

The conversion pipeline may be implemented externally.

What I'm thinking right now is...

sql-ddl-to-json-schema contributing
or
syntax-parser use

Or to take advantage of the existing grammar.
WebAssembly is thinking, too.

I haven't thought about this yet, so I think it'll be clear when it's developed.

https://github.com/xnuinside/simple-ddl-parser also defines a DDL dialect agnostic json schema

A possible use case I was thinking about was to use it in superset https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset instead of or in addition to e.g: https://superset.apache.org/sqllab.html

Do you know of https://github.com/mWater/jsonql? This seems to be a nice intermediate format/API specification (alternatives may be available, that is just the only one I could find)

[cleder]

But I think it's not enough if you don't fully support reverse engineering with SQL DDL.

Is there an intermediate JSON format?

Does the full DDL to VUERD conversion pipeline have to be implemented here?

I can think of existing introspection tools that may be adopted to spit out some well-defined JSON.

The 'SQL DDL to JSON Schema converter' looks promising, I like the compact format. Another pro for a format like this would be that the target could also be an ORM like SQLalchemy, Hibernate or typeorm.io - many others are also available
