Anatomy of a Core Problem
While traditional database structure exploration usually requires specialized tools or complex SQL commands, DbRheo-CLI provides the following optimization solutions through intelligent parsing technology:
Efficient Exploration Methods
- natural language instruction set (NLIS)::
- Global probe: "List all tables and their descriptions"
- Table-level analysis: "Detailed description of ORDERS table field relationships"
- Association discovery: "Show foreign key associations for the users and orders tables" - Dynamic caching mechanism: Create an in-memory cache of frequently queried metadata
- Visualization Aids: automatic generation of ER diagrams for complex relationships (requires Python matplotlib)
Practical operation process
- Initiate detection:
python cli.pyAfter entering the structure query command - Smart Completion: the tool will automatically prompt for existing table names when entering "Table".
- Deep dive: through follow up interactions such as "What is the format of this timestamp field?"
- Result export: supports saving the structure description as a Markdown document
Advanced Techniques
For large databases:
1. Utilization/modelSwitching to more powerful language models (e.g. GPT-4)
2. Combined with conditional filtering: "List all tables that contain the field 'price'"
3. Use of asynchronous modes to accelerate probing:异步获取schema信息
