> The parser is currently on alpha stage. It doesn't have any tests or docstrings yet.

A Python parser for [Database Markup Language (DBML)](https://dbml.dbdiagram.io) built with the powerful LARK parsing toolkit, utilizing the Earley algorithm for robust and flexible parsing.

## Features

* **DBML Parsing:** Accurately parses DBML files using an EBNF grammar defined for Lark.
* **Earley Parser:** Utilizes Lark's Earley parser for efficient and flexible parsing.
* **Pydantic Validation:** Ensures the parsed DBML data conforms to a well-defined structure using Pydantic 2.11, providing reliable data integrity.
* **Structured Output:** Generates Python objects representing your DBML diagram, making it easy to programmatically access and manipulate your database schema.
* **Future-Proof:** the parser accepts any properties or settings that are not defined in the DBML spec.

## Installation

You can install lark-dbml using pip:

```bash
pip install lark-dbml
```

To use SQL converter
```bash
pip install "lark-dbml[sql]"
```

## Usage

### Output Structure

Diagram - a Pydantic model - defines the expected structure of the parsed DBML content, ensuring consistency and type safety.

```python
class Diagram(BaseModel):
    project: Project
    enums: list[Enum] | None = []
    table_groups: list[TableGroup] | None = []
    sticky_notes: list[Note] | None = []
    references: list[Reference] | None = []
    tables: list[Table] | None = []
    table_partials : list[TablePartial] | None = []
```

### Parser

```python
from lark_dbml import load, loads

# 1. Read from a string
dbml = """
Project "My Database" {
  database_type: 'PostgreSQL'
  Note: "This is a sample database"
}

Table "users" {
  id int [pk, increment]
  username varchar [unique, not null]
  email varchar [unique]
  created_at timestamp [default: `now()`]
}

Table "posts" {
  id int [pk, increment]
  title varchar
  content text
  user_id int
}

Ref: posts.user_id > users.id
"""

diagram = loads(dbml)

# 2. Read from a file
diagram = load('example.dbml')
```

The parser can read any settings or properties in DBML objects even if the spec doesn't define them.

```python
diagram = loads("""
Table myTable [newkey: 'random_value'] {
    id int [pk]
}
""")
```
```
>>> diagram.tables[0].settings
TableSettings(note=None, header_color=None, newkey='random_value')
```

### Converters

#### SQL

SQL conversion is backed by **sqlglot** package. The underlying code converts the output Pydantic model to **sqlglot**'s AST Expression. Using **sqlglot** helps transpilation to any SQL dialect easily.

**NOTE THAT**: the output SQL is not guaranteed to be perfect or completely functional due to differences between dialects. If you find any issue, please create a new issue in Github :)

```python
from lark_dbml import load
from lark_dbml.converter import to_sql
from sqlglot import Dialects

# Load DBML diagram
diagram = load("diagram.dbml")

# Convert to SQL for PostgreSQL
sql = to_sql(diagram, Dialects.POSTGRES)
```
