README
SQL Explainer analyzes SQL queries and provides clear, plain English explanations of what they do. Perfect for learning SQL, code reviews, or documentation.
The SQL Explainer API provides a simple, reliable way to integrate sql explainer functionality into your applications. Built for developers who need production-ready sql explainer capabilities without the complexity of building from scratch.
Quick Start
Using JavaScript
async function callSQLExplainerAPI() { try { const requestBody = { "query": "SELECT u.name, COUNT(o.id) as order_count FROM users u LEFT JOIN orders o ON u.id = o.user_id WHERE u.created_at > '2024-01-01' GROUP BY u.id HAVING COUNT(o.id) > 5 ORDER BY order_count DESC", "detail": "standard" }; const response = await fetch('https://api.apiverve.com/v1/sqlexplainer', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'x-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY_HERE', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify(requestBody) }); const data = await response.json(); console.log(data); } catch (error) { console.error('Error:', error); } } callSQLExplainerAPI();
Using cURL
curl -X POST "https://api.apiverve.com/v1/sqlexplainer" \ -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "query": "SELECT u.name, COUNT(o.id) as order_count FROM users u LEFT JOIN orders o ON u.id = o.user_id WHERE u.created_at > '\''2024-01-01'\'' GROUP BY u.id HAVING COUNT(o.id) > 5 ORDER BY order_count DESC", "detail": "standard" }'

"data": { ... }
}
Example Response
A real response from the SQL Explainer API:
{
"status": "ok",
"error": null,
"data": {
"explanation": "This SQL query retrieves the names of users and the number of orders they have placed. It filters users who were created after January 1, 2024. The query then groups the results by user ID and only includes users who have placed more than 5 orders, finally ordering the results by the order count in descending order.",
"operation": "SELECT",
"tables": [
"users",
"orders"
],
"complexity": "moderate"
}
}
