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

$ pip install sqlfluff
$ echo ” SELECT a + b FROM tbl; ” > test.sql
$ sqlfluff lint test.sql
