d2plugin: Plugin for importing Postgres schema as CSV

[alixander]

Can auto-create a SQL table diagram

[nhooyr]

Can you elaborate on how this plugin would work? And why it'd be a plugin?

[alixander]

yeah scratch the plugin part. maybe d2 convert my_schema.csv schema_diagram.d2?

[nhooyr]

is there any indication within the .csv that it's a postgres schema? Perhaps we can automatically compile to svg.

like d2 my_schema.csv generates my_schema.svg

then to generate a .d2 file you do:

d2 --output-format=d2 my_schema.csv

Same method for handling .dot and .mmd files.

This way D2 is a drop in compiler for .dot and .mmd.
