[FEATURE]Data dictionary generation

Open amoroccoire opened this issue 4 months ago • 1 comments

I would like to specify, when creating a field in a new table, not only the short name (which would be used in the database, for example, with abbreviations), also a full or descriptive name for the field. This would complement the comment, which is currently editable.

With this information, it would be possible to automatically generate a data dictionary, for example through a dedicated view or report, or perhaps export it as CSV, JSON, or other formats. This would facilitate database documentation and standardization.

Thanks in advance.

how would this field be used in drawdb other than existing? would be reflected in the sql? or do you want to name fields differently than in the sql?
