Python Database TUI
Summary
sqlit is an open‑source, terminal‑based UI for interacting with a wide range of SQL databases. Built in Python, it offers connection management, SSH tunneling, vim‑style editing, query history, schema browsing and autocomplete, all configurable via pip installation.
Highlights
- Supports many databases out of the box: PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, SQLite, MariaDB, Oracle, DuckDB, CockroachDB, Supabase, Turso, etc.
- Fully keyboard‑driven with a Lazygit‑style interface, including connection manager UI and built‑in SSH tunnels.
- Features vim‑style modal editing, context‑aware help, theming (Tokyo Night, Nord, …), and automatic ODBC driver detection.
- Persists query history per connection; searchable, sortable, and available in both interactive TUI and CLI modes.
- Easy installation via `pip install sqlit-tui`; no external configuration required to start querying.
