SQL Query Formatter for Config Files

About This Tool

Configuration files are at the heart of modern software development — from package.json and tsconfig.json to VS Code settings and cloud infrastructure templates. This SQL Query Formatter for Config Files is tailored for processing SQL configuration files with the precision and care they require. Configuration files often contain comments (in formats that support them), version-specific settings, and carefully structured hierarchies that must be preserved during formatting. The tool processes these files while maintaining all data integrity, ensuring that indentation reveals the logical structure of configuration sections, nested settings, and conditional values. Whether you are cleaning up auto-generated configuration, merging settings from multiple sources, or preparing config files for documentation, this tool handles the task reliably.

What is SQL Query Formatter?

A SQL query formatter formats complex SQL statements and provides statistics about the query including line count and keyword count. These metrics help you assess query complexity — queries with many keywords and joins tend to be more complex and may benefit from refactoring into CTEs or subqueries. The formatter handles multi-table joins, subqueries, aggregate functions, GROUP BY/HAVING clauses, and ORDER BY with proper indentation at each nesting level. The statistics output helps teams identify queries that may need simplification, documentation, or performance optimization.
