Feature: Make --ns and --db arguments optional in command-line REPL about surrealdb

[clawcastle]

I would love to have a go at helping with this one, if no one else is currently working on it!

Just saw the comments on #58 about disabling kv-tikv in cargo.toml - I will try that today :)

Should the arguments only be optional for the sql subcommand, or also for the import and export subcommands?

[tobiemh]

Hi @sunero4 awesome news! The import and export subcommands will always need to have the argument supplied. It's just the sql subcommand which should be optional (because you can specify a database using the USE statement once you have connected!

[clawcastle]

@tobiemh Okay, that makes sense! I'll take a look at this some time after work today.

@tobiemh I'm having some trouble running the project on my machine (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS in WSL). I get a CMake error when trying to build the dependency grpcio-sys:
