DbAgile – SQL Databases with Agility

DbAgile aims at providing agile tools around databases, and relational/sql databases in particular.

Motivation

Have you ever dreamed of having one central point for keeping your database access infos?

  sh$ dba db:list
  sh$ dba db:use my_contacts

Or displaying a SQL table (say, ‘contacts’) in one shell command?

  sh$ dba sql:show contacts

Or to output the result of any SQL query to yaml, json, csv, ruby, … or even xml?

  sh$ dba bulk:export --yaml "SELECT name, mail FROM contacts" 

Or to have a Restful server on top of SQL databases?

  dba web:tools

Making similar things, … in Ruby?

  DbAgile::dba do |dba|
    # Override environment default values (~/.dbagile, STDOUT)
    dba.repository_path  = ...      # your application database repository
    dba.output_buffer     = ...     # keep output in any IO object
  
    # Start using dbagile commands
    dba.bulk_export %w{--yaml contacts}  # each line pushed in output_buffer
  end

The Rack middleware for the restful server (config.ru):

  #!/usr/bin/env rackup --require dbagile/restful/middleware -p 8711
  app = DbAgile::Restful::Middleware.new{|env|
    #
    # Set the environment!
    #
    # WARNING: Always use ::File instead of File because constants are
    #          resolved in Rack scope, which contains a File class. Not
    #          doing this may mead to bugs in certain ruby versions.
    #
    env.repository_path  = ::File.expand_path('../dbagile', __FILE__)
  }
