Subject: Re: [PATCH] ob-sql: session
Date: Sun, 15 Jun 2025 17:16:08 +0200
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I'm submitting again the patches for ob-sql.el, taking into
considerations the previous review, commented below. I also took good
note of Michael remarks.  The attached series of patches will work
without any modification to sql.el. I'll introduce later a local
`sql-connection' bound to the session name. In the absence of it,
sessions will work, but will ask to confirm provided connection
parameter upon establishing connection.

I see that calling `org-require-package' when establishing a new
connection is more rational. Changed in the following patch.

>> +(defvar org-babel-sql-session-start-time)

Starting time of one session block execution, used to exit on timeout.
Fixed in the following patch.

What naming convention to opt for ?  org-babel-[lang]-var ?
or ob-[lang]-var ?

Yes. It is now in the next patch.

Yes, it is now too.

I hope the formatting and style of the others docstrings is now fine.

I reintroduced `org-macs to provide `org-require-package in the following
patches.  But shouldn't `org-assert-version be checked only once when
org core loads instead of subsequent modules?

Replaced by `ob-sql-buffer'.
IIUC, a double dash indicates a variable used by the prefixed package?

True, the evaluation of the timeout was dup.

No need. It's rather insert instead.

lisp/ob-sql.el: add execution of session support to ob-sql

* ob-sql.el: connect to an SQL shell and execute command block.
Replaces calls to (intern engine) by variable `in-engine',
Replace a unique cond by a when
Close temporary buffer when org-sql-close-out-temp-buffer-p is non-nil.
