    SPyQL is really cool and its design is very smart, with it being able to leverage normal Python functions!

    As far as similar tools go, I recommend taking a look at DataFusion[0], dsq[1], and OctoSQL[2].

    DataFusion is a very (very very) fast command-line SQL engine but with limited support for data formats.

    dsq is based on SQLite which means it has to load data into SQLite first, but then gives you the whole breath of SQLite, it also supports many data formats, but is slower at the same time.

    OctoSQL is faster, extensible through plugins, and supports incremental query execution, so you can i.e. calculate a running group by + count while tailing a log file. It also supports normal databases, not just file formats, so you can i.e. join with a Postgres table.

    Ah, I wondered if they rolled their own SQL parser, but no, I now see the sqlite.go in the repo and all is made clear

    I am currently evaluating dsq and its partner desktop app DataStation. AIUI, the developer of DataStation realised that it would be useful to extract the underlying pieces into a standalone CLI, so they both support the same range of sources.

    What's annoying about this is that the PR doesn't even say it's trying to run tests. It says everything is passing and just doesn't list the actions.

    For a second I thought someone must have deleted the actions yaml files.

    This is a dangerous failure mode.

  • Xlite: Query Excel, Open Document spreadsheets (.ods) as SQLite virtual tables
    6 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 25 Jun 2022
    This is a cool project! But if you query Excel and ODS files with dsq you get the same thing plus a growing standard library of functions that don't come built into SQLite such as best-effort date parsing, URL parsing/extraction, statistical aggregation functions, math functions, string and regex helpers, hashing functions and so on [1].
