function rq_to_sql(rq_json: string): string;Direct usage
const prqljs = require("prql-js");

console.log(sql);Options
const opts = new prql.CompileOptions();

console.log(sql);Errors are returned as following object, serialized as a JSON array:
interface ErrorMessage {
/// Message kind. Currently only Error is implemented.
kind: "Error" | "Warning" | "Lint";
/// Machine-readable identifier of the error
code: string | null;
/// Plain text of the error
reason: string;
/// A list of suggestions of how to fix the error
hint: string | null;
/// Character offset of error origin within a source file
span: [number, number] | null;
/// Annotated code, containing cause and hints.
display: string | null;
/// Line and column number of error origin within a source file
location: SourceLocation | null;
}
/// Location within the source file.
/// Tuples contain:
/// - line number (0-based),
/// - column number within that line (0-based),
interface SourceLocation {
start: [number, number];
end: [number, number];
}These errors can be caught as such:
try {
const sql = prqlJs.compile(`from employees | foo first_name`);
} catch (error) {
const errorMessages = JSON.parse(error.message).inner;
console.log(errorMessages[0].display);
console.log(errorMessages[0].location);
}Build:
npm run buildThis builds Node, bundler and web packages in the dist path.
Test:
npm testBy default the wasm binaries are optimized on each run, even if the underlying
code hasn't changed, which can be slow. For a lower-latency dev loop, pass
--profile=dev to npm install for a faster, less optimized build.
npm install prql-js --profile=dev- This uses
wasm-packto generate bindings[^1]. - We've added an
npmlayer on top of the usual approach of just usingwasm-pack, so we can distribute a single package with targets ofnode,bundlerandno-modules— somewhat inverting the approach recommended bywasm-pack. The build instruction goes in abuildscript, rather than apackscript.
[^1]: Though we would be very open to other approaches, given wasm-pack does not seem maintained, and we're eliding many of its features to build for three targets. See https://github.com/PRQL/prql/issues/1836 for more details.
