sqlite-glance

A terminal interface to quickly see the contents of an SQLite database file.

Installation:

cargo install --locked sqlite-glance

Usage:

sqlite-glance my_db.sqlite

sqlite-glance my_db.sqlite table

With only one argument, it presents the database structure in a (hopefully) readable format. Given a table (or view) name, it will show the contents of the first few rows.

Integration with shell tab completion is available in the completions/ directory of the git repository.
