Usage
-----
The program takes one argument: a SQLAlchemy database URL of the form:
``dialect+driver://username:password@host:port/database`` (see
`the SQLAlchemy docs on database URLs
`_ for
more info). You may need to install additional packages for your database
driver of choice (e.g.: mysql-python, psycopg2, pymssql, etc.)
Here's some basic usage::
$ sqlalchemy_sql_shell
usage: sqlalchemy_sql_shell [-h] url
sqlalchemy_sql_shell: error: too few arguments
$ sqlalchemy_sql_shell sqlite:///
SQL> CREATE TABLE people ( first_name VARCHAR(128), last_name VARCHAR(128) );
SQL> INSERT INTO people VALUES ( 'John', 'Doe' ), ('Mike', 'Smith'), ('Guido', 'van Rossum');
result.rowcount = 3
SQL> SELECT * FROM people;
+------------+------------+
| first_name | last_name |
+============+============+
| John | Doe |
| Mike | Smith |
| Guido | van Rossum |
+------------+------------+
Multi-line queries are supported; A semi-colon signifies the end of the query::
SQL> SELECT *
...> FROM people
...> ;
+------------+------------+
| first_name | last_name |
+============+============+
| John | Doe |
| Mike | Smith |
| Guido | van Rossum |
+------------+------------+
You can also pipe queries into the command for quick one-liners::
$ echo "SELECT 1 + 2;" | sqlalchemy_sql_shell sqlite:///
+-------+
| 1 + 2 |
+=======+
| 3 |
+-------+
Or redirect stdin::
$ cat samples/queries.sql
SELECT 1 + 2;
SELECT 3 + 4;
SELECT 5 + 6;
$ sqlalchemy_sql_shell sqlite:/// < samples/queries.sql
+-------+
| 1 + 2 |
+=======+
| 3 |
+-------+
+-------+
| 3 + 4 |
+=======+
| 7 |

| 5 + 6 |
