You can make it more explicit by renaming the import to something like "shell_exec". Tagged templates are already pretty common in TS projects for things like gql or sql queries.
- throwaway290 8mo agotagged template does not cause execution of given string. tagged template is just a function and in this case it's simply a proxy for console.log() which also doesn't cause execution of given string. so how does it get executed? unless it was just an example and you are supposed to switch in $ from some third party library... which is another dependency in addition to deno... and which can be shai-huluded anytime or you may be offline and cannot install it when you run the script?
- supernes 8mo agoYes, it's another dependency (dax). The example with console.log is just that, an example. Standard dependency management practices apply, e.g. pinning a version/commit hash.
- throwaway290 8mo agoThat explains it:) Maybe the original article deserves a clarification

- tracker1 8mo agoI've either imported or created a sql template function that does exactly that... takes the parameters, forms a parameterized query against the database and returns the results back. Easy enough to add Typescript types that should match your expected results (though not enforced/checked) still helpful.
- throwaway290 8mo agoI know. My point was that the original text of the article gave no explanation next to that example as to how $ executes given string. So either there is some magic or the example was wrong. Author added explanation after my comment
- tracker1 8mo agoI understood it pretty clearly with the import statement.
