How to run sql script in geany?

Question

I am able to run my ex1.sql script from the command line, but in geany the follow error pops up:

./geany_run_script.sh: 5: ./geany_run_script.sh: ./ex1: not found

Does anyone have an idea?

Answer 1

Geany cannot execute sql directly. You have to configure the Build Commands from inside the build menu to do this e.g. to psql -f %f to run sql script with psql client.

Answer 2

For me to work I did this modify the filetypes.sql this way:

[build-menu]
EX_00_LB=_Exécuter
EX_00_CM=/opt/lampp/bin/mysql -u root  <  %f
EX_00_WD=

/opt/lampp/bin/mysql = is where mysql is install on my computer < %f = allow the sql to be executed dont forget to specify whitch DB you want to work with in your code so put a line like use Mydatabase; at the top.
