lazysql + zellij + helix

[oskretc]

Thanks for lazysql

In case any one is searching on how to integrate lazysql with zellij and hx (floating) as external editor

I have tested this in WSL2 but should work on any linux

I'm no expert in batch files but I found this working

2 files are needed in the PATH: sql_terminal.sh and sql_editor.sh

then export the variables

export SQL_TERMINAL=sql_terminal.sh
export SQL_EDITOR=sql_editor.sh

sql_terminal.sh

#!/bin/bash

file="/tmp/hextemp.lck"
touch $file

zellij run -fc -- bash sql_editor.sh $3

while [ -e "$file" ]; do
  sleep 1 # Wait for 1 second before checking again
done

sql_editor.sh

#!/bin/bash

hx $1
rm -rf /tmp/hextemp.lck

In helix, I have sqls for autocomplete and formatting. works great.
