• Multiple Languages: Python, Ruby, and JavaScript output formats
• Automatic Type Detection: Converts numbers, booleans, strings, and null values
• Usage Examples: Optional code comments with usage examples
• Clean Syntax: Properly formatted and indented code
• Smart Parsing: Extracts column names and data from SQL dumps
• File Download: Save as .py, .rb, or .js file

How to Use

1. Input SQL Data: Paste your SQL CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements or upload a .sql file
2. Choose Format: Select Python, Ruby, or JavaScript output format
3. Configure Options: Toggle comments and usage examples
4. Copy or Download: Use the Copy or Download button to save your code

Output Formats

Python (List of Dictionaries):

• List containing dictionary objects
• String keys with proper quoting
• None for null values
• True/False for booleans
• Perfect for data processing and analysis

Ruby (Array of Hashes):

• Array containing hash objects
• Symbol keys for better performance
• nil for null values
• true/false for booleans
• Ideal for Rails applications and Ruby scripts

JavaScript (Array of Objects):

• Array containing object literals
• Property names without quotes (when valid)
• null for null values
• true/false for booleans
• Perfect for Node.js and web applications

Example Conversion

SQL Input:

CREATE TABLE mtg_cards (
  id INT,
  name VARCHAR(100),
  mana_cost VARCHAR(20),
  card_type VARCHAR(50)
);

INSERT INTO mtg_cards VALUES (1, 'Lightning Bolt', '{R}', 'Instant');
INSERT INTO mtg_cards VALUES (2, 'Serra Angel', '{3}{W}{W}', 'Creature - Angel');

Python Output:

# Magic: The Gathering card data from mtg_cards
# Python dictionary format

mtg_cards_data = [
    {
        'id': 1,
        'name': 'Lightning Bolt',
        'mana_cost': '{R}',
        'card_type': 'Instant',
    },
    {
        'id': 2,
        'name': 'Serra Angel',
        'mana_cost': '{3}{W}{W}',
        'card_type': 'Creature - Angel',
    }
]

# Usage example:
# for card in mtg_cards_data:
#     print(f"{card['id']} - {card['name']}")

Ruby Output:

# Magic: The Gathering card data from mtg_cards
# Ruby hash format

mtg_cards_data = [
  {
    id: 1,
    name: 'Lightning Bolt',
    mana_cost: '{R}',
    card_type: 'Instant',
  },
  {
    id: 2,
    name: 'Serra Angel',
    mana_cost: '{3}{W}{W}',
    card_type: 'Creature - Angel',
  }
]

# Usage example:
# mtg_cards_data.each do |card|
#   puts "#{card[:id]} - #{card[:name]}"
# end

JavaScript Output:

// Magic: The Gathering card data from mtg_cards
// JavaScript object format

const mtgCardsData = [
  {
    id: 1,
    name: 'Lightning Bolt',
    mana_cost: '{R}',
    card_type: 'Instant',
  },
  {
    id: 2,
    name: 'Serra Angel',
    mana_cost: '{3}{W}{W}',
    card_type: 'Creature - Angel',
  }
];

// Usage example:
// mtgCardsData.forEach(card => {
//   console.log(`${card.id} - ${card.name}`);
// });

Common Use Cases

• Magic: The Gathering Apps: Convert card databases for MTG applications
• Data Migration: Move data from SQL to NoSQL databases
• Testing: Create test fixtures and mock data
• API Development: Generate seed data for APIs
• Web Applications: Convert database dumps to JSON-like structures
• Data Analysis: Import SQL data into Python/Ruby scripts

Type Conversion

• Numbers: Integers and decimals are converted to native numeric types
• Booleans: true/false, 1/0 → True/False (Python), true/false (Ruby/JS)
• Strings: Text values are properly quoted and escaped
• Null Values: NULL → None (Python), nil (Ruby), null (JavaScript)

Integration Examples

Python - Pandas DataFrame:

import pandas as pd

# Use the converted data
df = pd.DataFrame(mtg_cards_data)
print(df.head())

Ruby on Rails - Seed Data:

# db/seeds.rb
mtg_cards_data.each do |card_data|
  MtgCard.create!(card_data)
end

JavaScript - MongoDB:

// Insert into MongoDB
await db.collection('mtg_cards').insertMany(mtgCardsData);

Privacy & Security

All conversions happen locally in your browser. Your SQL data is never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.
