SQLFluff : A SQL Linter And Auto-Formatter For Humans

SQLFluff is a dialect-flexible and configurable SQL linter. Designed with ELT applications in mind, SQLFluff also works with jinja templating and dbt. SQLFluff will auto-fix most linting errors, allowing you to focus your time on what matters.

Getting Started

To get started, install the package and run sqlfluff lint or sqlfluff fix.

$ pip install sqlfluff
$ echo ” SELECT a + b FROM tbl; ” > test.sql
$ sqlfluff lint test.sql
== [test.sql] FAIL
L: 1 | P: 1 | L003 | Single indentation uses a number of spaces not a multiple of 4
L: 1 | P: 14 | L006 | Operators should be surrounded by a single space unless at the start/end of a line
L: 1 | P: 27 | L001 | Unnecessary trailing whitespace

You can also have a play using SQLFluff online.
