SANDWORM_MODE: Shai-Hulud-Style npm Worm Hijacks CI Workflows and Poisons AI Toolchains
An emerging npm supply chain attack that infects repos, steals CI secrets, and targets developer AI toolchains for further compromise.
node-sql-parser
Advanced tools
Parse simple SQL statements into an abstract syntax tree (AST) with the visited tableList, columnList and convert it back to SQL.
npm install node-sql-parser --save
or
yarn add node-sql-parser
npm install @taozhi8833998/node-sql-parser --registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com/

There two ways to parser the specified database.
import Parser from the specified database path node-sql-parser/build/{database}
// import transactsql parser only
const { Parser } = require('node-sql-parser/build/transactsql')
const parser = new Parser()
const sql = `SELECT id FROM test AS result`
const ast = parser.astify(sql)
console.log(parser.sqlify(ast)) // SELECT [id] FROM [test] AS [result]
OR you can pass a options object to the parser, and specify the database property.
const opt = {
database: 'Postgresql'
}
// import all databases parser
const { Parser } = require('node-sql-parser')
const parser = new Parser()
// pass the opt config to the corresponding methods
const ast = parser.astify('SELECT * FROM t', opt)
const sql = parser.sqlify(ast, opt)

The sql-parser package is a simple SQL parser for Node.js. It provides basic parsing capabilities but lacks the advanced features and dialect support of node-sql-parser.
The sql-formatter package focuses on formatting SQL queries. It provides a range of formatting options but does not offer parsing or AST generation capabilities like node-sql-parser.
Sequelize is an ORM for Node.js that supports various SQL dialects. While it provides some query parsing and generation capabilities, its primary focus is on database interaction and ORM functionalities, making it more comprehensive but also more complex than node-sql-parser.
