    Can't you just give some love to the issue https://github.com/pganalyze/libpg_query/issues/44 instead ? As I said before this would be very helpful for the community because there are a lot of libraries that use libpg_query and cannot be used on windows (f.e see https://github.com/lelit/pglast/issues/7).

    It seems that the only problem for fixing the problem is:

    > Thanks for the offer, but the problem is our team being time limited / having an engineer with a Windows machine ready to take this on, not that we wouldn't want to pay someone to work on it :)

    (https://github.com/pganalyze/libpg_query/issues/44#issuecomm...)

    Hosting the LSP elsewhere is really needed since if people wanted to go that way they could use Remote ssh (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/ssh) to host the whole dev environment on linux and connect to it.

    Thank you

    There are even table-valued functions.

    These things are not widespread, and differ by implementation, and the way these are used by clients are copy-and-paste. Something as thoughtful as ZetaSQL https://github.com/google/zetasql does not have mechanisms for structuring (modules, packages, interfaces). SQL will not, cannot evolve into such a direction (or, anything that evolves, will not be recognizable as SQL).

  • goccy/bigquery-emulator: BigQuery emulator server implemented in Go
    2 projects | /r/bigquery | 17 Oct 2022
    Hi, I develop a BigQuery emulator ( https://github.com/goccy/bigquery-emulator ) from early 2022. It is written in Go, but can be used from bq command line tool and other language's (e.g. Python ) client SDK after installing docker image or released binary. It currently supports over 200 of the nearly 330 standard functions in BigQuery and all data types except GEOGRAPHY ( see https://github.com/goccy/go-zetasqlite#status for details ). ZetaSQL ( https://github.com/google/zetasql ) is used to parse and analyze queries.

    If you don't want to do it yourself, there's this:

    Parsing is huge but it's amazing how small a part of the job it is. This library isn't even the half of it.

    I mean the postgres parser (and semantic changes) for ZetaSQL. The zetasql parser is in a file called zetasql/parser/bison_parser.y, I strongly suspect they now have a file called something like zetasql/pgparser/bison_parser.y as well (and much more pervasive changes to support the deeper differences in the dialects).

    This is the lexical structure and syntax docs for the new postgres inteface to cloud spanner:

    https://cloud.google.com/spanner/docs/postgresql/lexical

    And this is the zetasql lexical structure and syntax docs:

    https://github.com/google/zetasql/blob/master/docs/lexical.m...

    Notice that the new PG docs are an edit of the Zeta ones - evidence that my hypothesis is correct.
