C++ SQL Parser for Hyrise

This is a SQL Parser for C++. It parses the given SQL query into C++ objects. It is developed for integration in hyrise (https://github.com/hyrise/hyrise), but can be used in other environments as well.

In March 2015 we've also written a short paper outlining discussing some development details and the integration into our database Hyrise. You can find the paper here.

General Usage

Prerequisites:

  • bison (tested with v3.0.2)
  • flex (tested with v2.5.5)

The parser library code is created in build/. To create the full parser code run

make build

To use the SQL Parser in your own code, you need to include SQLParser.h and build+link all the source files from the parser within your project. See hyrise/src/lib/access/sql/SQLQueryParser.cpp for how it's used in Hyrise.
