Python bindings for sqlparser-rs

sqloxide

sqloxide wraps rust bindings for sqlparser-rs into a python package using pyO3.

The original goal of this project was to have a very fast, efficient, and accurate SQL parser I could use for building data lineage graphs across large code bases (think hundreds of auto-generated .sql files). Most existing sql parsing approaches for python are either very slow or not accurate (especially in regards to deeply nested queries, sub-selects and/or table aliases). Looking to the rust community for support, I found the excellent sqlparser-rs crate which is quite easy to wrap in python code.

Installation

The project provides manylinux2014 wheels on pypi so it should be compatible with most linux distributions. Native wheels are also now available for OSX and Windows.

To install from pypi:

pip install sqloxide

Usage

from sqloxide import parse_sql

sql = """
SELECT employee.first_name, employee.last_name,
       call.start_time, call.end_time, call_outcome.outcome_text
FROM employee
INNER JOIN call ON call.employee_id = employee.id
INNER JOIN call_outcome ON call.call_outcome_id = call_outcome.id
ORDER BY call.start_time ASC;
"""

output = parse_sql(sql=sql, dialect='ansi')

print(output)

Benchmarks

We run 4 benchmarks, comparing to some python native sql parsing libraries:

• test_sqloxide - parse query and get a python object back from rust
• test_sqlparser - testing sqlparse, query -> AST
• test_mozsqlparser - testing moz-sql-parser, full roundtrip as in the docs, query -> JSON
• test_sqlglot - testing sqlglot, query -> AST

To run them on your machine:

poetry run pytest tests/benchmark.py

Example

The depgraph example reads a bunch of .sql files from disk using glob, and builds a dependency graph of all of the objects using graphviz.

poetry run python ./examples/depgraph.py --path {path/to/folder/with/queries} 

Develop

1. Install rustup

2. poetry install will automatically create the venv, compile the package and install it into the venv via the build script.
