Quick SQL is a markdown-like shorthand syntax that expands to standards-based Oracle SQL. It is useful to rapidly design and prototype data models. Take a look at the example below:

Previously, Quick SQL was only available within Oracle Application Express. This project reimplements the Quick SQL parser and translator into a JavaScript library which can be used in both NodeJS and the browser.

This repository also includes a Quick SQL to Entity Relationship Diagram module that can be used as seen in the example below:

npm install @oracle/quicksql

The Quick SQL to DDL translator is the product's core component, It allows users to transform a Quick SQL string into an Oracle SQL string.

The Quick SQL Syntax and Grammar are documented here

See below for examples of how to use this library.

NPXJS regitry already contains package with conflicting name. To disambiguate, please use command like this:

npx @oracle/quicksql test/apex/department_employees.qsql > output.sql

import { quicksql } from "@oracle/quicksql";
import fs from "fs";

try {
    const text = fs.readFileSync( './test/department_employees.quicksql' );
    console.log( new quicksql( text.toString() ).getDDL() );
} catch( e ) {
    console.error( e );
};

const { quicksql } = require( "@oracle/quicksql" );
const fs = require( "fs" );

try {
    const text = fs.readFileSync( './test/department_employees.quicksql' );
    console.log( new quicksql( text.toString() ).getDDL() );
} catch( e ) {
    console.error( e );
};

<script type="module">
    import { quicksql } from './dist/quick-sql.js';
    document.body.innerText = new quicksql(
`departments /insert 2
    name /nn
    location
    country
    employees /insert 4
        name /nn vc50
        email /lower
        cost center num
        date hired
        job vc255

view emp_v departments employees

# settings = { "prefix": null, "semantics": "CHAR", "DV": false }

`
    ).getDDL();
</script>

<script src="./dist/quick-sql.umd.cjs"></script>
<script>
    document.body.innerText = new quickSQL.quicksql(
`departments /insert 2
    name /nn
    location
    country
    employees /insert 4
        name /nn vc50
        email /lower
        cost center num
        date hired
        job vc255

view emp_v departments employees

# settings = { "prefix": null, "semantics": "CHAR", "DV": false }

`
    ).toDDL();
</script>
