sqlrite/ask/
mod.rs

1//! Engine-side glue for the [`sqlrite-ask`](https://crates.io/crates/sqlrite-ask)
2//! crate — natural-language → SQL.
3//!
4//! Compiled only when the `ask` feature is enabled (default-on for
5//! the CLI binary, off for the WASM SDK and any
6//! `default-features = false` library embedding).
7//!
8//! ## Why this lives in the engine, not in `sqlrite-ask`
9//!
10//! Earlier (v0.1.18) `sqlrite-ask` itself owned the `Connection`
11//! integration — it imported `sqlrite-engine` and exposed
12//! `ConnectionAskExt`. That worked for library callers, but when
13//! the engine's REPL binary tried to depend on `sqlrite-ask` to
14//! wire up the `.ask` meta-command we hit a hard cargo error:
15//!
16//! ```text
17//! cyclic package dependency: package `sqlrite-ask` depends on itself.
18//! Cycle: sqlrite-ask → sqlrite-engine → sqlrite-ask
19//! ```
20//!
21//! Optional / feature-gated deps don't escape this — cargo's static
22//! cycle detection counts every potential edge in the graph. The
23//! structural fix was to flip the dep direction: keep `sqlrite-ask`
24//! pure (operates on `&str` schemas), put the engine integration
25//! here. The dep flow is now one-way: `sqlrite-engine[ask]` →
26//! `sqlrite-ask`. No cycle.
27//!
28//! ## What's here
29//!
30//! - [`schema::dump_schema_for_database`] — walks `Database.tables`
31//!   alphabetically, emits `CREATE TABLE … (…);` text the LLM grounds
32//!   on. Determinism matters for prompt caching.
33//! - [`ConnectionAskExt`] — extension trait adding `Connection::ask`
34//!   that handles schema introspection + `sqlrite_ask::ask_with_schema`
35//!   in one call.
36//! - Free functions [`ask`] / [`ask_with_database`] /
37//!   [`ask_with_provider`] / [`ask_with_database_and_provider`] —
38//!   for callers who don't want to bring the trait into scope, or
39//!   who hold a `&Database` directly (the REPL binary does this).

41// Schema dump is always available (no sqlrite-ask dep). The

43// under the engine's `ask` feature because they pull in `sqlrite-ask`
44// (HTTP transport).

56// these without listing `sqlrite-ask` as a direct dep — convenient
57// for the Tauri desktop app, the SDK adapters, and any Rust embedder
58// who already pulls the engine in. They can keep saying
59// `use sqlrite::ask::AskConfig` instead of dragging the second crate
60// in just for one type. Gated under `ask` because that's the feature
61// that pulls `sqlrite-ask` into the dep graph in the first place.
