A Laravel 4 & 5 Artisan SQL Interactive Interface, plus a handful of Artisan commands to execute SQL queries.
It's like tinker for SQL, just run
php artisan sqli
And execute whatever sql query you like in your sql:
postgresql:laravel> select email from users;
And you should see it this way:
+----+------------------------------+
| id | email |
+----+------------------------------+
| 1 | arnold@schwarzenegger.com |
| 2 | danny@devito.com |
+----+------------------------------+
Executed in 0.0602 seconds.
You can get a list of your tables by running:
postgresql:laravel> tables count
count option is optional:
+--------------+-----------------------------+-----------+
| table_schema | table_name | row_count |
+--------------+-----------------------------+-----------+
| public | firewall | 2 |
| public | migrations | 3 |
| public | sessions | 1 |
| public | users | 1 |
| public | actors | 3431326 |
| public | movies | 1764727 |
+--------------+-----------------------------+-----------+
You can view a list of databases:
postgresql:laravel> databases
+-----------------+--------+--------------------------+-----------+
| Connection Name | Driver | Database | Host |
+-----------------+--------+--------------------------+-----------+
| postgres | pgsql | production | localhost |
| tracker | mysql | tracker | localhost |
+-----------------+--------+--------------------------+-----------+
You can change your current database connection by:
postgresql:laravel> database mysql
mysql:staging>
You can list all commands by executing
postgresql:laravel> help
+----------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| command | description |
+----------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| quit | Exit interface. |
| tables | List all tables. Use "tables count" to list with row count. |
| help | Show this help. |
| database | Change the current database connection. Usage: "database [connection name]". |
+----------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
To exit, just type CTRL-C, CTRL-D or quit.
You don't need to enter sqli to execute commands, you have access to the most common DML commands via direct Artisan commands:
select
insert
update
delete
A special DML command, to execute whatever else you may needd:
sql
And a command for listing tables:
tables
The syntax could not be simpler, just execute
php artisan select email, first_name, last_name from users
And you should get a result like:
+----+------------------------------+----------------+----------------+
| id | email | first_name | last_name |
+----+------------------------------+----------------+----------------+
| 1 | arnold@schwarzenegger.com | Arnold | Schwarzenegger |
| 2 | danny@devito.com | Danny | DeVito |
+----+------------------------------+----------------+----------------+
Create a very small alias for Artisan:
alias a='php artisan'
And it'll be as if you where in your sql interface:
a select * from posts where post_id < 100
a update posts set author_id = 1
a delete from posts
a sql call removeOldPosts()
The command
php artisan tables --count
Will give you a list of your tables with an optional row count:
+--------------+-----------------------------+-----------+
| table_schema | table_name | row_count |
+--------------+-----------------------------+-----------+
| public | firewall | 2 |
| public | migrations | 3 |
| public | sessions | 1 |
| public | users | 1 |
| public | actors | 3431326 |
| public | movies | 1764727 |
+--------------+-----------------------------+-----------+
Use the less command to help you with that:
a select * from users | less -S
Should give you a scrollable view of your table:
+----+------------------------------+-------------+-----------+--------------------------------------------+---------------------+---------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------+----------------+----------------+----------------------------+----------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+-----------+-------------+-----------+-----------+-------------+------------+--------------+------------------+-------------------+-----------------+-------------------+-----------------+-----------------+
| id | email | permissions | activated | activation_code | activated_at | last_login | persist_code | reset_password_code | first_name | last_name | created_at | updated_at | password | gender_id | middle_name | nick_name | birth_day | birth_month | birth_year | early_signup | imported_from_id | registration_time | registration_ip | registrated_by_id | activation_time | beta_invitation |
+----+------------------------------+-------------+-----------+--------------------------------------------+---------------------+---------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+---------------------+----------------+----------------+----------------------------+----------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+-----------+-------------+-----------+-----------+-------------+------------+--------------+------------------+-------------------+-----------------+-------------------+-----------------+-----------------+

When passing arguments to scripts Linux based systems may remove quotes and misunderstand your parentheses in queries, you if you need to use them you'll have to double quote it:
a insert "into users (email, first_name, last_name, created_at, updated_at) values ('clint@eastwood.com', 'Clint', 'Eastwood', 'NOW', 'NOW')"
or just the parts that have them:
a insert into users "(email, first_name, last_name, created_at, updated_at)" values "('clint@eastwood.com', 'Clint', 'Eastwood', 'NOW', 'NOW')"
But you can also escape them with \
a update users set created_at = \'NOW\'
All SQL commands, connections, tables names and columns are present in completion, just use TAB to complete your commands.
