sqlshield for Zed

Schema-aware SQL diagnostics inside Zed, powered by sqlshield.

Install

This extension is intended to be installed from Zed's Extensions panel (zed: extensions) once published. Until then you can install it as a dev extension:

zed: install dev extension
# point at editors/zed/ inside this repo

The extension wraps the sqlshield-lsp binary. It looks for one in this order:

1. lsp.sqlshield.binary.path in your Zed settings (absolute path).
2. sqlshield-lsp on PATH (cargo install sqlshield-lsp).
3. A prebuilt binary downloaded from GitHub Releases matching your platform/architecture.

The recommended path today is cargo install sqlshield-lsp; the GitHub-release fallback only fires once the LSP project ships prebuilt binaries.

Configuration

Schema and dialect can be set under lsp.sqlshield.settings in your Zed settings, or via a .sqlshield.toml at the workspace root. Editor settings win per-field; the toml fills any gaps.

{
  "lsp": {
    "sqlshield": {
      "settings": {
        "schema": "schema.sql",
        "dialect": "postgres"
      }
    }
  }
}

Valid dialect values: generic, postgres, mysql, sqlite, mssql, snowflake, bigquery, redshift, clickhouse, duckdb, hive, ansi.

schema is resolved relative to the workspace root (or absolute).
