An open source Oracle CLI, Yet Another SQL*Plus Replacement serves as a substitute for SQL*Plus.
The YASQL project is a powerful open source command line interface for Oracle that provides users with a much easier and friendlier interface than SQL*Plus. It is a complete replacement solution for SQL*Plus, specifically designed for ad hoc queries and general database interfacing.
With "Yet Another SQL Plus Replacement," users can take advantage of several key features, including full ReadLine support for command history and tab completion, alternate output methods such as tables, lists, and CSV formats, as well as the ability to redirect and pipe query results.
Additional functionalities include query editing and scripting capabilities, as well as easy administrative data dictionary commands. The newest release of YASQL addresses several minor issues, while also introducing several new features such as the ability to run tty-less, new makefile targets, and command completion for select, update, insert, delete, execute, and more.
Other new improvements include table.column name completion, command_complete_list feature and config option, and the addition of 'show user' and 'show uid' commands. Some popular operating systems have unique bugs, but YASQL has a workaround for SunOS's alarm() bug, and users can redirect their output with >, >>, or |.
Overall, YASQL is an excellent tool for anyone who needs to interact with Oracle databases, especially for those who work with ad hoc queries or require a more user-friendly interface than SQL*Plus provides.
