Running

Please note that this is a prototype made for a jam, and not a finished app. It has bugs and we know it. If it works for you, great!

You will need a recent version of Go. We used Go 1.17, but older versions should work too.

Simply run:

go run main.go

sqljam's Issues

almost empty screen

I started the application using go run main.go after cloning the repo, but there's only an almost empty screen.
What am I missing?

Please add LICENSE for this repository

Thank you @bvisness for creating such a great visual tool! 🎆 👍🏼 I think it's the perfect solution for exploring and querying certain databases.

Can you please add a LICENSE to this repository such as the GNU GPLv3 or similar? This is super easy, just follow the GitHub instructions here.

building using docker

Thanks for this great application!

It would be great to teach students in a classroom if this was a web application rather than a native X11 application.

I had some trouble building this, and got the build working in docker with some effort.

Here are my steps to build this in Ubuntu 22.04:

git clone https://github.com/bvisness/SQLJam.git

docker run -ti --rm -v ${PWD}/SQLJam:/build ubuntu:jammy bash

# You are now inside the docker image
apt update
apt install git golang

apt install libx11-dev libxcursor-dev libxrandr-dev libxinerama-dev \
            libxi-dev libgl1-mesa-dev

cd /build
go build -buildvcs=false

strip SQLJam
