SQL chart

Draw chart for any SQL queries

What is this?

A simple web application to visualize data from any arbitrary SQL query.

How it is working?

• set DB_CONNECTION string either in env variable or in config file
• Start the application by running run.sh. Visit 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/index.html'
• Enter the SQL query in the text box and submit.
• available columns in the data will be shown in UI. visualize the data by dragging columns into required axis. Also choose requied aggregation function for pivot table
• Entire state of the graph ( SQL, columns in each axis, aggregation function etc ) is stored in the URL ( in URL hash ) so that we can reload the page without loosing the data.

How to run this

git clone https://github.com/harish2704/sql-chart
cd sql-chart
pip2 install -r requirements.txt --user
# Edit config file and set database connection url. For details, refer https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/latest/core/engines.html
./run.sh
