pg-query-parser

The real PostgreSQL parser for nodejs. The primary objective of this module is to provide symmetric parsing
and deparsing of SQL statements. With this module you can modify parts of a SQL query statement and
serialize the query tree back into a formatted SQL statement. It uses the real PostgreSQL parser.

The main functionality provided by this module is deparsing, which PostgreSQL does not have internally.

Installation

``sh
npm install pg-query-parser
`

Example

Rewrite part of a SQL query:

`js
const parser = require('pg-query-parser');

const query = parser.parse('SELECT * FROM test_table').query;

console.log(parser.deparse(query));

// SELECT * FROM "another_table"
`
