Code Generation for SQLite Stored Procedures

1 post · Oct 2020

What this trail covers

Meta has developed CG/SQL, a code generation system for SQLite that allows developers to write stored procedures in a variant of T-SQL and compile them into C code. This system includes features for schema management, testing, query plan analysis, and interfacing with other languages. The CQL compiler enforces strong typing and hundreds of compile-time errors to prevent runtime SQL issues, ensuring correct and consistent use of SQLite APIs. It also automates database schema upgrades and generates unit tests for stored procedures.

  1. CG/SQL: Easy, accurate code generation for SQLiteIntroduced CG/SQL, a code generation system for SQLite that compiles T-SQL variants into C code. Key features include a strongly-typed CQL compiler with compile-time error checking, automated schema upgrade capabilities, and generation of unit tests and query plans for stored procedures. The system aims to simplify the creation of complex, well-tested data access layers for SQLite.
