SQL Minifier — Compact SQL Query Workspace

generic-text workspace — document honest handler; use IDE sql-formatter for production SQL minify

How to Use This Tool

  1. Paste SQL source into generic-text textarea.
  2. Click Transform — passthrough for sql-minifier slug today.
  3. Run pgFormatter or IDE sql-formatter for production minify.
  4. Preserve string literals — naive whitespace removal breaks quotes.
  5. Copy workspace draft for manual comment stripping if urgent.
  6. Clear textarea after queries containing schema names on shared machines.

About This Tool

Embedded analytics queries, ORM log snippets, and migration scripts sometimes ship minified — comments stripped and whitespace collapsed — to reduce log noise or fit size limits. VSPIC sql-minifier maps to generic-text client kind in missing-tools-handlers.generated.ts: textarea plus Transform with slug-aware transformText.

The slug sql-minifier does not match minify or compress rules in transformText today — Transform returns input unchanged. Real SQL minification needs parser-aware tools respecting string literals and dollar-quoted blocks — use sql-formatter plugins, pgFormatter CLI, or IDE extensions. This page documents passthrough honestly.

Common use cases

  • Inspect HTTP headers and user-agent strings
  • Analyze email headers for phishing investigation
  • Generate strong passwords for staging environments

Why use VSPIC for ?

  • Honest generic-text passthrough documentation.
  • Browser staging area for SQL review before CI format.
  • Client-side paste — unreleased schema queries stay local.
  • Copy output for ticket attachments.
  • Pairs with sql-pretty-printer sibling for format SEO vocabulary.
  • Free workspace without account.

SQL minify in production pipelines

CI pipelines invoke sqlfluff, pgFormatter, or dialect-specific formatters. Parser-aware minify respects single-quoted strings and block comments.

Browser paste tools cannot replace parser minify without breaking WHERE clause string literals.

generic-text passthrough for sql-minifier

sql-minifier slug lacks transformText matches. Output mirrors input on Transform until dedicated minify rules or proxy widget ships.

Relationship to sql-pretty-printer

sql-pretty-printer is sibling generic-text passthrough with pretty-print SEO framing. Both need IDE formatters for real SQL transform.

Relationship to sql-query-builder

sql-query-builder is generic-text workspace for query drafts. Minify after building queries in proper builder or IDE.

Comment stripping risks

Deleting -- line comments naively can truncate when -- appears inside strings. Parser tools respect string boundaries.

Embedded query size limits

Some BI tools cap embedded SQL length. Minify after validation in dialect-specific linter.

Client-side privacy

Unreleased schema queries stay in browser on paste. No server-side SQL storage for generic-text slugs.

Future dedicated SQL minify proxy

Registry may proxy client SQL parser minifier. Update this page when missing-tools-handlers.generated.ts changes.

Dialect awareness

PostgreSQL dollar quoting, T-SQL brackets, and MySQL backticks differ. Minifiers must target your engine dialect.
