Relatedly, PRQL is a lovely pipe-oriented syntax for SQL DBs: https://prql-lang.org/ https://prql-lang.org/
Their syntax is a lot cleaner, because it's a new language -- it's not backwards-compatible with SQL. But then again, they don't have the resources of Google behind them.
- systems 2y agoif its not backward compatible with SQL, is not pipe syntax for SQL its just a new Query language most DBMS have proprietary extension to SQL, its messy, real success would be adding the new syntax to the standard and have implemented across multiple DBMSs
- Taikonerd 2y agoWell, OK. PRQL is "for SQL DBs" in the sense that you can translate it to SQL on the client side, and then execute it on regular Postgres, MySQL, etc.
- RyanHamilton 2y agoThat's exactly what qstudio offers: https://www.timestored.com/qstudio/prql-ide https://www.timestored.com/qstudio/prql-ide a desktop client that translates prql to run against many databases.
