Ruby::Text2sql

Chat with your Database!

How It Works?

Text2SQL takes:

• Your natural language Query (in any language).
• Your OpenAI API Key to process the query.
• Your Database Schema to understand table structures.

Using these, Text2SQL generates SQL queries, executes them, and returns results in a human-readable format—simplifying data access for both developers and non-developers.

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add ruby-text2sq

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install ruby-text2sq

Usage

• Set your OPENAI_API_KEY as an environment variable in .env.

• Use Text2sql.call method with a plain-text query. Here’s an example:

require 'text2sql'

response = Ruby::Text2sql.call("List all users who registered in the last 30 days")
puts "SQL Query: #{response[:sql_query]}"                    # Outputs the generated SQL query
puts "Query Result: #{response[:query_result]}"              # Outputs the result of the SQL query
puts "Response: #{response[:natural_language_response]}"     # Outputs a human-readable response

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
