Using vsql with emacs

timolin

Has anyone successfully configured vsql extension for the emacs editor?  My experience is that using theJDBC drivers is not as good as accessing directly through vsql, but I'm growing tired of copying and pasting from editor to command line.  

 

I've seen a number of old posts on the web on this, but so far, I haven't gotten it to work. 

 

Thanks!

Hi!

 

 

While I'm a vim user(not Emacs) I didn't found any issue to configure Emacs with Vertica. 

Where did you stack?

 

 

Example of session thru Emacs:

[UPDATE]

Sorry, command line cutted on video. I used a standard plugin for PostgreSQL sql-postgres.

 

Here is a guides I used:

• http://emacsredux.com/blog/2013/06/13/using-emacs-as-a-database-client/

Thanks.  Well, I just tried again, and it works for me now:

 

Dowloaded vsql.el and placed it in ~/.emacs.d/

Added (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d") in ~/.emacs

Added (load "vsql") in ~/.emacs

 

 I'm on CentOS 6.5
