SQL - Formatting tool
ยท One min read
When faced with legacy code, it is often useful to reformat it to make it readable. And from there, the study of the code can begin.
There are plenty of reformatting tools for json, php, javascript and other languages, but far fewer for a query written in SQL.
Just copy/paste SELECT LAT_N, CITY, TEMP_F FROM STATS, STATION WHERE MONTH = 7 AND STATS.ID = STATION.ID ORDER BY TEMP_F
in the tool and get
SELECT
LAT_N,
CITY,
TEMP_F
FROM
STATS,
STATION
WHERE
MONTH = 7
AND STATS.ID = STATION.ID
ORDER BY
TEMP_F
