usql

usql is a powerful, universal command-line interface designed for interacting with a vast array of SQL and NoSQL databases, including PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, SQLite3, Microsoft SQL Server, and many others. Modeled after the familiar psql interface, it provides database administrators and developers with a consistent, intuitive tool for managing diverse database environments. Key features include: - Broad Compatibility: Supports virtually any database with a Go standard library-compatible SQL driver. - psql-like Experience: Implements core psql features such as variables, backticks, and backslash commands. - Enhanced Functionality: Offers features beyond standard psql, including syntax highlighting, context-based command completion, and terminal graphics. - Data Management: Enables easy copying of data between different database instances. - Flexible Installation: Available via Homebrew, AUR, Go, Docker, and direct binary releases. - Extensible Build System: Users can customize their build using Go tags to include or exclude specific database drivers, allowing for lightweight or feature-rich installations depending on requirements. usql is highly versatile, allowing users to connect via standard DSN/URL strings, execute scripts from files, and manage multiple connections simultaneously. It is an ideal replacement for fragmented command-line clients, providing a unified workflow for complex data infrastructures.
