sqlfluff/sqlfluff 0.2.1

First Alpha Release 🙌 - Templating FTW

on GitHub

This is the first Alpha release of sqlfluff. Thanks especially to @mrshu @barrywhart & @nolanbconaway who have helped get the tool to this stage.

Version 0.2.1 mainly brings templating ability to sqlfluff. For a full treatment of why that's a great thing, check out one of the pages in the new docs, about how sql is used in the real world analytics stack. The short version of what's new in this release is:

• Templating support for jinja2 and python format(). The fix command also works sensitively around templated sections so as not to destroy the templating.
• Configuration files both for templating and for rule configuration.
• Launching docs on readthedocs.
• Several new rules, in particular several around whitespace near operators and aliasing.
• A whole host of extensions to parsing for a much more meaningful experience with more complicated queries.
