Description

Summary

I would like to request the addition of support for the SAP HANA SQL dialect in the sql-formatter library. SAP HANA is a widely used in-memory, column-oriented, relational database management system, and having support for it in sql-formatter would be highly beneficial for developers working with SAP environments.

Use Case

Adding support for the SAP HANA SQL dialect will allow developers to format their queries and stored procedures that are specific to SAP HANA, leading to improved code readability and maintainability. This will also help in maintaining consistency across different SQL-based projects that interact with various databases.

  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points, and provides no SAP HANA syntax examples or acceptance criteria. Start by surveying the repository’s existing SQL dialect implementations and tests, then clarify the required SAP HANA coverage with maintainers; done should mean the agreed syntax formats correctly with regression tests.
