tinySQL Command Variants

This repo ships multiple binaries under cmd/ for different use-cases.

• demo

  • A simple demo that creates tables, inserts sample data, and runs example queries.
  • Build: go build ./cmd/demo
  • Run: ./demo -dsn "mem://?tenant=default"

• repl

  • Interactive SQL REPL on top of database/sql. Supports multiple output formats (table, csv, tsv, json, yaml, markdown), echo mode, and optional HTML output.
  • Build: go build ./cmd/repl
  • Run: ./repl -dsn "mem://?tenant=default"
  • Flags: -dsn, -echo, -format <table|csv|tsv|json|yaml|markdown>, -beautiful, -html, -errors-only

• server

  • HTTP JSON API and gRPC (JSON codec) server with optional federation across peers.
  • Build: go build ./cmd/server
  • Run: ./server -http :8080 -grpc :9090 -dsn "mem://?tenant=default" -peers "host1:9090,host2:9090"
  • Flags: -dsn, -http <addr>, -grpc <addr>, -auth <token>, -peers <addr,...>, -tenant <name>, -v
  • HTTP Endpoints:
    • POST /api/exec {tenant, sql}
    • POST /api/query {tenant, sql}
    • GET /api/status
    • POST /api/federated/query {tenant, sql}

• tinysql

  • SQLite-compatible CLI with file-based and in-memory database support. Accepts a filename as the database path (:memory: for in-memory), optional inline SQL as a positional argument, and supports utility subcommands (tables, schema, insert, query, export).
  • Build: go build ./cmd/tinysql
  • Run interactive REPL: ./tinysql mydb.dat
  • Run inline SQL: ./tinysql mydb.dat "SELECT * FROM users"
  • Flags: -tenant, -mode <column|list|csv|json|table>, -header, -echo, -cmd <sql>, -batch, -output <file>

• sqltools

  • SQL utility toolkit: format (beautify), validate, explain, list templates, and an interactive REPL with schema browsing and query history.
  • Build: go build ./cmd/sqltools
  • Run: ./sqltools beautify "select * from users where id=1"
  • Subcommands:
    • beautify [-upper=true] <sql> – format a SQL statement
    • validate <sql> – check SQL syntax
    • explain <sql> – show a query execution plan
    • templates – list built-in query templates
    • repl [-tenant=default] – interactive SQL tools shell

• tinysqlpage

  • HTTP server that renders SQL-driven web pages. Each URL path maps to a .sql file in the pages directory; query results are turned into HTML components and served via a template.
  • Build: go build ./cmd/tinysqlpage
  • Run: ./tinysqlpage -addr :8080 -pages ./cmd/tinysqlpage/pages -seed ./cmd/tinysqlpage/sample_data.sql
  • Flags: -addr <listen>, -pages <dir>, -seed <sql-file>, -css <file>, -template <file>
  • Health check: GET /healthz

• studio

  • Desktop GUI application built with Wails. Provides a native window for running SQL queries against tinySQL.
  • Requires Wails CLI: go install github.com/wailsapp/wails/v2/cmd/wails@latest
  • Build: cd cmd/studio && wails build
  • Dev mode: cd cmd/studio && wails dev

• wasm_browser

  • Builds tinySQL to WebAssembly for browsers. A modern UI is provided in web/.
  • Build & serve: cd cmd/wasm_browser && ./build.sh then open http://localhost:8080
  • Manual build: cd cmd/wasm_browser && GOOS=js GOARCH=wasm go build -o web/tinySQL.wasm . && cp "$(go env GOROOT)/lib/wasm/wasm_exec.js" web/

• wasm_node

  • Builds tinySQL to WebAssembly for Node.js and provides a Node runner.
  • Build & run demo: cd cmd/wasm_node && ./build.sh
  • Manual build: cd cmd/wasm_node && GOOS=js GOARCH=wasm go build -o tinySQL.wasm . && cp "$(go env GOROOT)/lib/wasm/wasm_exec.js" ./
  • Run: node wasm_runner.js or node wasm_runner.js query "SELECT 1"

• query_files

  • Query CSV, JSON, and XML files using SQL via a web UI or CLI. See cmd/query_files/README.md for full documentation.
  • Build: go build -o query_files ./cmd/query_files
  • Web mode: ./query_files -web -port 8080 -datadir ./data
  • CLI mode: ./query_files -query "SELECT * FROM users" users.csv

• query_files_wasm

  • WebAssembly build of the query_files tool for use directly in the browser. Exposes importFile, executeQuery, listTables, and exportResults JavaScript functions.
  • Build: cd cmd/query_files_wasm && ./build.sh
  • Open index.html in a browser (requires a local HTTP server due to WASM MIME type).

• catalog_demo

  • Demonstrates the tinySQL catalog and job scheduler APIs by registering tables and scheduling SQL jobs.
  • Build: go build ./cmd/catalog_demo
  • Run: ./catalog_demo

• debug

  • Minimal program that exercises BOOL column handling via the raw tinySQL API. Intended as a development/debugging aid, not an end-user tool.
  • Build: go build ./cmd/debug
  • Run: ./debug

Notes:

• The in-memory DSN is mem://?tenant=default. Files can be persisted using file:/path/to/db.dat?tenant=<name>&autosave=1.
• The server, REPL, and tinysql CLI all rely on the internal driver registration (_ ".../internal/driver").
