This is a postgres client that does auto-completion and syntax highlighting.

Fork of: https://github.com/dbcli/pgcli/ which is an amazing project

• Presetup all the DBs, their env and project path, so launching it is faster and smarter
• Have history be project based instead of global
• Output to JSON and open up in text editor / IDE of choice

• Using ASDF for python version management + Poetry for depedency management
• recommend adding an alias with something like

alias db='/Users/jordan/Library/Caches/pypoetry/virtualenvs/pgcli-QfguHkLv-py3.10/bin/python /Users/jordan/code/misc/pgcli/pgcli/main.py'

• You can see your python path with poetry env info, under the 'Virtualenv/executable'
• Create a config csv at: ~/.cust_db_cli_config.csv like

project,env,db_url,path
web,local,<local_web_postgres_db_string>,/Users/jordan/code/web
web,dev,<dev_web_postgres_db_string>,/Users/jordan/code/web
catapult,local,<local_catapult_postgres_db_string>,/Users/jordan/code/catapult

Example if current working directory was /Users/jordan/code/web :

db to open up the CLI with <local_web_postgres_db_string>

db --env=dev to open up the CLI with <dev_web_postgres_db_string>

db --project=catapult to open up the CLI with <local_catapult_postgres_db_string>

update EDITOR_COMMAND in pgcli/main.py to be whatever editor you like ex: vim

Format with: poetry run black .
