SQL queries formatting, syntactic and semantic validation

sqlvalidator

SQL queries formatting, syntactic and semantic validation

Work In Progress!

Command line usage

For formatting SQL:

sql.py

def fun():
    return "select col1, column2 from table"  # sqlformat

Command line:

$ sqlvalidator --format sql.py
reformatted sql.py (1 changed SQL)
1 file reformatted (1 changed SQL queries).

sql.py

def fun():
    return """
SELECT
 col1,
 column2
FROM table
"""  # sqlformat

The sqlformat comment is required to indicated to sqlvalidator that this string should be formatted.

One can verify also that the file would be reformatted or not:

$ sqlvalidator --check-format sql.py
would reformat sql.py (1 changed SQL)
1 file would be reformatted (1 changed SQL queries).

$ sqlvalidator --format sql.py
reformatted sql.py (1 changed SQL)
1 file reformatted (1 changed SQL queries).

$ sqlvalidator --check-format sql.py
No file would be reformatted.

$ sqlvalidator --format sql.py
No file reformatted.

--check-format won't write the file back and just return a status code:

• Status code 0 means nothing would change.
• Status code 1 means some files would reformatted.

API

Formatting

import sqlvalidator

formatted_sql = sqlvalidator.format_sql("SELECT * FROM table")

Validation

import sqlvalidator

sql_query = sqlvalidator.parse("SELECT * from table")

if not sql_query.is_valid():
    print(sql_query.errors)

Warning: only limited test cases are currently handled by the validation

Details:

To be implemented yet, but should become the main added-value of this lib.

Ideally, this package should provide a basic SQL validation:

• not using a missing column
• existing functions
• correct aggregations
• schemaless (not assume that table names and columns in those exist)
• types correctness in functions

(only on SELECT-statements)
