From GUI to CLI: Transforming my query workflow with usql and jq

1

usql

Since some of the databases I was interacting were postgres, I started to play around with psql. It felt amazing, it had a great integration with the terminal, no visual pollution, I could also use vim as my query editor, and it was blazing fast. The problem was that only some of the databases I was interacting were postgres. I needed something that could connect to multiple databases, something universal, so I don't have to invest time in new tooling all the time. So I searched on github "universal sql" and I felt in love with usql.

DBeaver

I usually deal with data spread across multiple databases and my tool for the job of inspecting resources and test some simple queries was dbeaver, which is great, but it can be overwhelming in terms of visual information (specially on my use case). I needed speed, I needed something in the terminal, I needed vim.
