.Sh NAME
.Nm sqlite2html
.Nd convert sqlite3 schema to an HTML5 fragment
.\" .Sh LIBRARY
.\" For sections 2, 3, and 9 only.
.\" Not used in OpenBSD.
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm sqlite2html
.Op Fl v
.Op Fl p Ar prefix
.Op Ar schema
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
utility converts an
.Xr sqlite3 1
schema file to an HTML5 fragment.
Its options are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fl v
Causes the parser to emit informational messages on stderr.
.It Fl p Ar prefix
Prefix to use for creating HTML ID tags.
.It Ar schema
An SQLite schema file.
.Pp
The outputted HTML5 fragment consists of a
.Li <dl class="tabs">
list consisting of tables; and then for each table, a
.Li <dl class="cols">
list of columns.
The
.Li <dt>
for each list entry consists of the name of the table or column and has
its ID attribute set to the transformed name.
The
.Li <dd>
for each list begins with a
.Li <div class="comment">
if the table or column is preceeded by comments
For columns with a foreign key reference, this will be preceeded by
.Li <div class="foreign">
containing an anchor to the key having a text node of the endpoint.
.Pp
The
.Li @
character within a comment is special: the following table name and
optional column name will be transformed into an HTML link to the
identifier.
Thus,
.Li @foo.bar
will point to the
.Dq bar
column in table
.Dq foo .
If this identifier is not followed by white-space, you may quote the
identifier to prevent subsequent characters from being pulled into the
identifier, e.g.,
.Li @"foo.bar" .
If you wish to print a standalone
.Li @ ,
you may escape it with a backslash
.Pq Dq \e .
.Pp
The
.Li [
character is similar, as it encloses general-purpose links in a manner
similar to Markdown.
Links are formatted as follows:
.Bl -item
.It
.Li [link text](http://link)
.It
.Li [http://link]
.El
.Pp
You can escape the
.Li [
character as well, to prevent this behaviour.
.Pp
The following sequences are also special:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Li --
Print an formatted n-dash.
.It Li ---
Print an formatted m-dash.
.It Li ``
Print formatted left-double quotes.
.It Li ''
Print formatted right-double quotes.
.El
.Pp
Any of these may be escaped with the backslash to have it print as-is.
If you wish to print a backslash, you must escape it, for example,
.Li the \e\e-character---and an \e@-sign .
.Pp
Lastly, a blank (without any white-space but the newline!) one-line
comment line is considered to be a paragraph break, for example:
.Bd -literal
-- Hello, world.
--
-- And after the break...
.Ed
.Pp
In multi-line comment, this can be affected with a blank line in the
comment stream:
.Bd -literal
/*
* Hello, world.
*
* That was another line break.
*/
