Online MySQL Query Formatter

The Online MySQL Query Formatter takes raw SQL and outputs a clean, consistently styled version. It targets developers, DBAs, testers, and students who require readable queries for reviews and documentation. The tool preserves comments and string literals while applying MySQL-friendly formatting rules. It supports configurable indentation and line-wrapping to fit project guidelines and repository standards.

Conceptually, the formatter tokenizes input, classifies tokens by role (keywords, identifiers, operators, literals, comments), then reconstructs the statement with standardized spacing, line breaks after major clauses, and uppercase reserved words. It treats backtick-quoted identifiers and quoted strings carefully to avoid accidental modifications. Output can be copied, exported, or integrated into code reviews and documentation repositories.

Unique value lies in its dialect-aware formatting for MySQL, predictable styling across teams, and minimal setup time. Typical use cases include preparing queries for code reviews, sharing examples in technical docs, and maintaining a consistent internal SQL style guide. Core features include keyword capitalization, clause alignment, indentation controls, comments preservation, and optional line-length enforcement. This tool is particularly beneficial for data engineers, developers collaborating on SQL-heavy projects, and educators creating SQL examples for students.
