About:
sqlcmd is a command-line tool for connecting to, querying, and managing Microsoft SQL Server instances. It provides a lightweight, scriptable interface for database administrators and developers to execute T-SQL commands, run scripts, and perform batch operations directly from the terminal or shell.
Key Features:
  • Execute T-SQL queries and scripts
  • Connect to SQL Server and Azure SQL
  • Supports batch operations and automation
  • Cross-platform (Windows, macOS, Linux)
  • Integrated authentication and parameter support
Use Cases:
  • Database administration and maintenance tasks
  • Automating deployment and data migration scripts
  • Interactive querying and debugging in development environments
Alternatives:
  • mssql-cli – Interactive CLI with auto-completion and syntax highlighting, but less focused on scripting
  • Azure Data Studio – GUI-based tool with advanced query editing and visualization, not a pure CLI
