SQL parser in JavaScript

This project provides a PEG.js grammar for SQL syntax. Why? I wanted to properly parse SQL in JavaScript, knocking down yet another thing in that long list of things that will be reimplemented in JavaScript one day.

See the ./sql.pegjs file, or...

• http://github.com/steveyen/sqld3/blob/master/sql.pegjs

Unlike previous hand-coded attempts at SQL parsing in JavaScript, such as my previous http://code.google.com/p/trimpath/wiki/TrimQuery, the parsing here is grammar (PEG) based.

SQL syntax

The SQL syntax follows sqlite 3.7 documented syntax, specifically from...

• sqlite's art/syntax/bubble-generator-data.tcl
• http://www.sqlite.org/docsrc/artifact?name=a7001f134e2f341c3b46fad9623556260530904b
