| 541331755 | MDExOlB1bGxSZXF1ZXN0MzU2MDA0MjQy | 653 | allow leading comments in SQL input field | 418191 | closed | 0 | 8 | 2019-12-21T14:19:52Z | 2020-02-05T02:35:41Z | 2020-02-05T02:13:25Z | CONTRIBUTOR | simonw/datasette/pulls/653 | this changes the SQL validation to allow for lines that are commented out my main use case for this is that I like to write a succession of queries when trying to solve a problem. In most native SQL clients there is a key binding that will run just the current highlighted query or the program is smart enough to run just the query that the cursor is in if it's properly delimited with a ';'. Typically my workflow will start with a single simple query and I'll copy/paste it to a new query below when I want to make big changes while debugging. This makes it easy to go back to a working version above when the query doesn't work. Since datasette sends the whole query to the DB I have to comment out the older queries by prefixing each line with `--`. This gets caught by the validators when I use my typical strategy of copy/pasting each successive query below the last one. so this is just a simple fix to allow for a query to be sent to the DB with leading comments. | 107914493 | pull | {"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/653/reactions", "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} | 0 |
