SQL Explainer

SQL Explainer is a VS Code extension that uses the OpenAI API to translate SQL queries into English. With this extension, you can quickly understand what a query does and why it's important without having to spend time deciphering SQL code.

Getting Started

To use SQL Explainer, you'll need to get an API key from OpenAI. If you don't have one already, you can sign up for a free account at https://openai.com/signup/.

Once you have an API key, you can install SQL Translator by following these steps:

1. Install the extension
2. Open a file in VS Code and select the query you want to translate.
3. Open the Command Palette by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P (Windows, Linux) or Cmd+Shift+P (macOS).
4. Type "SQL Translator" in the search bar and select the "SQL Translator: Translate Query" command.
5. If prompted, enter your OpenAI API key and press Enter. (will be asked only the first time)

Once you've completed these steps, a window will open on the right side of the screen, showing you the translated query in English. You can also see a shorter explanation (tldr) of the query below the full explanation.
