source command parse error

[hosseinalipour]

I got a parse error when I want to source a file in a query:
var result = await connection.query(source "${modelPath}");

I tried putting quotes around it, changing / to \ or \ but no luck. although it does work in the console I wonder why it doesn't work?

ER_PARSE_ERROR: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'source "D:\workspace\all.model.ddl"' at line 1

source is a command in the mysql.exe command line tool. Since it is not SQL, your MySQL server is rejecting that. The message you are seeing it coming from your MySQL server itself, not this module.
