Configuration

There are two ways to use configuration files.

• Set personal configuration file(~/.config/sql-language-server/.sqllsrc.json)
• Set project configuration file on your project root(${YOUR_PROJECT/.sqllsrc.json})
• Use workspace/configuration according to LSP specification

Example for personal configuration file

• Examples

{
  "connections": [
    {
      "name": "sql-language-server",
      "adapter": "mysql",
      "host": "localhost",
      "port": 3307,
      "user": "username",
      "password": "password",
      "database": "mysql-development",
      "projectPaths": ["/Users/joe-re/src/sql-language-server"],
      "ssh": {
        "user": "ubuntu",
        "remoteHost": "ec2-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com",
        "dbHost": "127.0.0.1",
        "port": 3306,
        "identityFile": "~/.ssh/id_rsa",
        "passphrase": "123456"
      }
    },
    {
      "name": "postgres-project",
      "adapter": "postgres",
      "host": "localhost",
      "port": 5432,
      "user": "postgres",
      "password": "pg_pass",
      "database": "pg_test",
      "projectPaths": ["/Users/joe-re/src/postgres_project"]
    },
    {
      "name": "sqlite3-project",
      "adapter": "sqlite3",
      "filename": "/Users/joe-re/src/sql-language-server/packages/server/test.sqlite3",
      "projectPaths": ["/Users/joe-re/src/sqlite2_project"]
    }
  ]
}

Please restart sql-language-server process after create .sqllsrc.json.

Parameters of connections

SSH

Personal confuguration file

Personal configuration file is located on ~/.config/sql-language-server/.sqllsrc.json. sql-language-server will try to read when it's started.

Project confuguration file

Project configuration file is located on ${YOUR_PROJECT_ROOT}/.sqllsrc.json.

All setting items are similarly to personal configuration file, with some exceptions:

• Specify under connection property element directly(you don't need to set array)
• You don't need to set project path.(if you set it it will be ignored)
• It's merged to personal configuration if you have it.

Example:

{
  "name": "postgres-project",
  "adapter": "postgres",
  "host": "localhost",
  "port": 5432,
  "user": "postgres",
  "database": "pg_test"
}

And also if you have set personal configuration and both of them's names are matched, it's merged automatically.

Personal configuration example:

{
  "connections": [{
    "name": "postgres-project",
    "password": "password",
    "ssh": {
      "user": "ubuntu",
      "remoteHost": "ec2-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com",
      "dbHost": "127.0.0.1",
      "port": 5432,
      "identityFile": "~/.ssh/id_rsa",
      "passphrase": "123456"
    }
  }]
}

It will merge them as following:

{
  "name": "postgres-project",
  "adapter": "postgres",
  "host": "localhost",
  "port": 5432,
  "user": "postgres",
  "database": "pg_test",
  "password": "password",
  "ssh": {
    "user": "ubuntu",
    "remoteHost": "ec2-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com",
    "dbHost": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 5432,
    "identityFile": "~/.ssh/id_rsa",
    "passphrase": "123456"
  }
}

workspace/configuration

Parameters of workspace configuration

• connections: It's the same as connections params of personal config file
• lint: It's the same as configuration of sqlint.

Example of workspace configuration

• coc.nvim

  }
}

Inject envitonment variables

${env:VARIABLE_NAME} syntax allows you to replace configuration value with enviroment variable. This is useful when you don't want to write actual value on the configuration file.

example

{
  "adapter": "mysql",
  "host": "localhost",
  "port": 3307,
  "user": "username",
  "password": "${env:DB_PASSWORD}",
  "database": "mysql-development",
  "ssh": {
    "user": "ubuntu",
    "remoteHost": "ec2-xxx-xxx-xxx-xxx.ap-southeast-1.compute.amazonaws.com",
    "dbHost": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 3306,
    "identityFile": "~/.ssh/id_rsa",
    "passphrase": "${env:SSH_PASSPHRASE}"
  }
}

Switch database connection

If you have multiple connection information on personal config file, you can swtich database connection.

VSC extension provides Switch database connection command.

Raw RPC param:

method: workspace/executeCommand
command: switchDataBaseConnection
arguments: string(project name)

SQLite3 Notes

If you get error when you use sqlite3 connection, you may need to rebuild sqlite3 on your environment.

VSC extension provides the command to rebuild it.(Name: Rebuild SQLite3 Client)

If you're using sql-language-server directly, after go to the directry of it and call npm rebuild sqlite to rebuild it.

Lint

You can use lint rules that are provided sqlint. Please refer this to know how to use and how to configure to make them be matched your case.

Also you can use it to fix your problem if it's possible.

Raw RPC param:

method: workspace/executeCommand
command: fixAllFixableProblems
arguments: string(document uri)
