SQL Fiddle

THIS VERSION IS NOT IN USE ANY MORE

SQL Fiddle has been implemented with a new codebase - see https://github.com/jakefeasel/sqlfiddle2 for those details

Getting the project up and running

Fork the code on github to a local branch for youself.

If you haven't already got Maven, install it now.

From the root of your working copy, run this:

mvn jetty:run

Once everything downloads and runs, the app will be running on localhost:8080. Watch for this message in your console:

[INFO] Started Jetty Server

You can now access your local server at localhost:8080.

You should now have a functional copy of SQL Fiddle running locally. Out of the box, the only database "servers" you have are SQLite instances (since those actually run in your browser). Setting up others requires separate work for each one (and isn't really necessary for most development work).

The document root being served is src/main/webapp. You can edit the files under there and see the changes immediately upon refresh (no need to restart the jetty server).

##Optional

You should set the Railo Admin passwords. Here are the links to get to both admin contexts, once you have Jetty running:

Local Railo Web Admin Local Railo Server Admin

The simplest thing to do would be to set the password just to "password" (no quotes). This is the default password in the config. If you choose to use another Railo admin password, you must set it in the file src/main/webapp/config/development/settings.cfm and update the CFAdminPassword. Once you set the admin password, you don't need to do anything else in the Railo Administrator.

sqlfiddle's Issues

PostgreSQL error messages

Detail not shown correctly; instead you get a meaningless message about transactions.

Figure out what's wrong with openid library and openid.se

Bootstrap based UI upgrade

Overhaul UI to use Bootstrap framework

Execution plans

Ability to display execution plans for each query

Update sample fiddles to be more interesting

Maven build file for project setup

Build account details page, including feature to link to SO account

Use H2 for management database

Will be an easier dependency to include than PostgreSQL for building up an environment with Maven.

New output formats

Output the results in various formats (CSV, TSV, INSERT statements, maybe Excel).

Add "suggested donation" after results of query are displayed

Once logged in, remember settings

Retain things such as database type, output format

return full content when page is requested without hashbang

https://developers.google.com/webmasters/ajax-crawling/docs/specification

SQLite support

Need to add support for sqlite

Update about page

Update tech stack details to reflect latest changes. Add section for notes on the various differences between database backends.

Nagios monitoring

Install and configure http://www.nagios.org/ on the servers

PostgreSQL query plans improved

with http://explain.depesz.com/

Add feature to check for standard SQL usage

http://developer.mimer.com/validator/index.htm

Markdown format for fiddle results, suitable for use on SO/dba.se

CSV / TSV to DDL

Build a tool that will make it easier to translate text format tables to valid DDL

Text to DDL needs to use specified query terminator

When an alternate query terminator is selected, the ddl_builder code needs to generate DDL that reflects that selection.

Add paypal link to the top nav bar

DB2 support

Add hook for Travis-CI

Depends on first getting code maven-ized, and unit tested

Add more contrib libraries to postgres instances

Add description of WHAT sqlfiddle is

The readme describes how it was built but what does it do?

QUnit tests for text to ddl, expanded support for input formats

Update UI to reflect suggestions made for query terminator

http://ux.stackexchange.com/q/23853/16609

Test mechanism to validate results

Something like QUnit that can make assertions about the result sets, associated with the sample fiddle. Then we can see if the results pass or fail the assertion.

Blank DDL bugs

Users can use a blank schema, but there are some bugs when trying to load a query that is based on a blank schema.

Show SQL statement directly with result set

Useful to prevent needing to jump back up to the query panel when reading long results

Multiple result sets

Display multiple result sets from queries

User accounts just like JS Fiddle

It'd be good if we could have user accounts to associate all the SQL Fiddles with a given user name. This is useful so that one can access them anywhere...

MXUnit tests for CFWheels code

Include test evaluation as part of maven build

Fix about page ToC

Appears to be missing bootstrap plugin js

More complete sample schemas

Something like AdventureWorks for each database type, so there is more to work with initially.

Restructure CSS to use LESS

Look into names/titles for fiddles

link to download .sqlplan files for SQL Server

SQL Server's execution plans are hugely verbose as difficult to interpret. Provide a link to download them as .sqlplan files so they can be opened in a user's local copy of SSMS. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189298.aspx

Use maven to automatically copy environment.cfm.example to environment.cfm

Of course, only if it doesn't already exist. This will eliminate yet one more set in the build process.

Running malformed SELECTs throws bad error message

Writing a SELECT with an error (typo, etc) throws an inappropriate error message, instead of the concrete error it shows the following error:

"DDL and DML statements are not allowed in the query panel for MySQL; only SELECT statements are allowed. Put DDL and DML in the schema panel."

It does the same thing with commented out selects, like /* SELECT * FROM xxx; */

Break up fiddle_backbone.js into AMD files

REQ: ability to print

It would be nice if we could print our work directly from sqlfiddle. I'm guessing just adding print formatting CSS would work well enough.

Firebird Support

Need to add support for firebird

Support alternate (non-OpenID) login methods

Specifically OAuth (FB, Twitter, Github) and Persona

Non-flash fallback for Oracle xplan display

Not all devices support flash (for example, iOS) and it would be nice to show them something if they attempt to view an Oracle execution plan. Raw XML?

Add How-To section in about.html for use on other sites

Include an example of embedding a fiddle within iframe and also loading via AJAX requests like so: http://jsfiddle.net/S3DR9/. Possibly a full explanation of the REST-ish "API" that is available for extensions, plus a suggestion that interested ruby/python/whatever developers build a nice database abstraction layer for use in web sandboxes.

QUnit tests for all javascript code

Include test evaluation with PhantomJS as part of maven build

Usage statistics

Build a page that shows site usage (possibly a read-only version of Google Analytics)

Expand requirejs plugin to include CSS resources and maybe handlebars templates

Add a "Learn SQL" wiki

Possibly using this? http://canvas.riaforge.org/
