## Sqlcmd

The `sqlcmd` project aims to be a complete port of the native sqlcmd to the `go` language, utilizing the [go-mssqldb](https://github.com/denisenkom/go-mssqldb) driver. For full documentation of the tool, see https://docs.microsoft.com/sql/tools/sqlcmd-utility

### Breaking changes

- The `SQLCMDPASSWORD` environment variable
- The `:CONNECT` command
- When prompted, the user can type the password to complete a connection (pending [#50](https://github.com/microsoft/go-sqlcmd/issues/50))
- When prompted, the user can type the password to complete a connection
- `-r` requires a 0 or 1 argument
- `-R` switch will be removed. The go runtime does not provide access to user locale information, and it's not readily available through syscall on all supported platforms.
- `-I` switch will be removed. To disable quoted identifier behavior, add `SET QUOTED IDENTIFIER OFF` in your scripts.
- `-N` now takes a string value that can be one of `true`, `false`, or `disable` to specify the encryption choice. (`default` is the same as omitting the parameter)
- If `-N` and `-C` are not provided, sqlcmd will negotiate authentication with the server without validating the server certificate.
- If `-N` is provided but `-C` is not, sqlcmd will require validation of the server certificate. Note that a `false` value for encryption could still lead to encryption of the login packet.
- If both `-N` and `-C` are provided, sqlcmd will use their values for encryption negotiation.
- More information about client/server encryption negotiation can be found at <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/openspecs/windows_protocols/ms-tds/60f56408-0188-4cd5-8b90-25c6f2423868>

- `-u` The generated Unicode output file will have the UTF16 Little-Endian Byte-order mark (BOM) written to it.
- Some behaviors that were kept to maintain compatibility with `OSQL` may be changed, such as alignment of column headers for some data types.
- All commands must fit on one line, even `EXIT`. Interactive mode will not check for open parentheses or quotes for commands and prompt for successive lines. The ODBC sqlcmd allows the query run by `EXIT(query)` to span multiple lines.

### Azure Active Directory Authentication

This version of sqlcmd supports a broader range of AAD authentication models, based on the [azidentity package](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/azidentity). The implementation relies on an AAD Connector in the [driver](https://github.com/denisenkom/go-mssqldb).
