Show HN: Lotad, an Open-Source DuckDB Differ for Data Exploration
Lotad makes comparing DuckDB files effortless. Get started with a simple setup command that generates a config YAML file tailored to your needs.
The tool creates a comprehensive DuckDB output file containing:
High-level change summaries per table
Detailed table deltas
Complete schema difference analysis
For tables with drift, Lotad generates dedicated comparison tables that preserve the original schema while adding an observed_in column to track data origins.
Lotad is under active development, with support for additional database types on the roadmap.
It's actively being worked on and I do have expanding the number of supported Databases on the roadmap.
