I have provided CodeMirror a schema using schemaCompletionSource which works well, although I would like schema entries selected from the autocomplete to be inserted quoted; for example in backticks.
As an example, when accessing a table with a space in the name (e.g. ABC Test), if I typing “SELECT * FROM AB”; “ABC Test” is available in the autocomplete, but when selected it is just inserted as-is; for it to be valid MySql it would need to wrap the table name in backticks as it is inserted.
I would be happy if every table/field was inserted with backticks; i.e. I don’t need CodeMirror to work out if the table name represents valid sql…
Is there a way to do this; or request this feature?
Actually; I have found an issue - when the table is prefixed with a schema; it sees the “.” as a special character in the name; and ends up wrapping the schema and table names as the same identifier; e.g. `schema.table` instead of `schema`.`table`
Arrh, maybe it’s down to my miss-use of this; in my schema I sometimes have database.schema.table as the field key
Like this, if I type database. the autocomplete menu shows all schemas with tables in that database, so I can select “schema.table”, which inserts as `schema.table`
So, this may be me - but it worked well before this change
That was indeed not supported (and would behave weirdly in some situations, like when you typed the name including the dot and then tried to complete). I’ve pushed a patch that adds support for it.
