SQLC Config Discovery

Overview

gogenfilter can discover SQLC configuration files and extract output directories, so you don’t have to hardcode paths.

Find Configs

configs, err := gogenfilter.FindSQLCConfigs([]string{"./..."})
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

for _, cfg := range configs {
    fmt.Printf("Config: %s\n", cfg.Path)
}

Get Output Directories

dirs, err := gogenfilter.GetSQLOutputDirs([]string{"."})
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

for _, dir := range dirs {
    fmt.Printf("Output: %s\n", dir)
}

Supported Config Formats

• sqlc.yaml
• sqlc.yml

The parser uses the github.com/go-faster/yaml library for robust YAML handling.

Use Case

Combine config discovery with include patterns for precise scoping:

dirs, _ := gogenfilter.GetSQLOutputDirs([]string{"."})

includePatterns := make([]string, len(dirs))
for i, dir := range dirs {
    includePatterns[i] = dir + "/**"
}

f := gogenfilter.NewFilter(
    gogenfilter.Enabled(),
    gogenfilter.WithFilterOptions(gogenfilter.FilterSQLC),
    gogenfilter.WithIncludePatterns(includePatterns...),
)
