Fully Open Source qStudio

[ryanhamilton]

qStudio could currently be described as Free and Open core, in 2022 I did a large conversion of a lot of the code but gave up from sheer boredom. To make sure there is demand and to motivate myself, I am going to convert at least one file for every user that posts here.

Please

1. Star the project.
2. Comment on this page.
3. I will then open source at least one source file and reply back.

The greater the demand, the faster it get's done :)

in 2022 I did a large conversion of a lot of the code but gave up from sheer boredom.

What is involved in "converting" the code? For me, this would be git add .

I have to read each file before adding as:

1. I've added clients and users names/emails in comments places where a fix was specific to their issue.
2. I want to ensure comments don't contain anything I don't want public. When I wrote them, they were definitely written only to be read by me and one other person.
3. One niche database is charged for, I need to move that code to a separate package.
4. The signing keys are in my own personal source repo. I need to workout github secrets and how to do a build with those keys.
   That's the ones I can think of. I'm more worried about what I can't remember.

I just heard about qStudio and am anxious to give it a shot. Pretty cool how it's cross platform and supports the OLAP databases I use.

Thank you for the insane amount of effort and love! Would love to be able to use this in Databricks SQL Warehouses and might just be tempted to help add that as well, if possible.

Brilliant idea! Boredom is the number 1 productivity killer for everyone including open-source devs and community can certainly help with motivation and support! This is a cool project, which I might use personally. Keep up the good work!

I already star'ed the repo - a while back. But I'm really happy now that qStudio includes PRQL. It lets me write fancy PRQL queries that generate a ton of SQL without knowing a heckuva lot about the SQL language. I edit the query, hit Cmd-E (Ctl-E on Windows) and Presto! I can see if the query did what I expected. I'm looking forward to more enhancements. Thanks!

[ryanhamilton]

Restarting on this effort NOW.

Great news.

I just want to say how much fun I've had (and the good work I've been able to accomplish) using qStudio and PRQL together. As I mentioned, I'm documenting some of it in my qStudio PRQL Quick Start. There are still hitches/infelicities (see Lesson 3), but it's working great once you learn to avoid them. Thanks.
