About:
tbls is a command-line tool written in Go that analyzes database schemas and generates documentation in various formats like Markdown, HTML, and JSON. Its main value is enabling database schema documentation to be easily version-controlled and integrated into CI/CD pipelines, ensuring documentation stays in sync with the actual database structure.
Key Features:
  • Automatically generates documentation from database schemas
  • Supports multiple output formats (Markdown, HTML, JSON, etc.)
  • Integrates with CI/CD for automated documentation updates
  • Works with various databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, etc.)
  • Can detect and document schema differences (drift)
Use Cases:
  • Maintaining up-to-date, version-controlled database documentation for teams
  • Automating schema documentation generation as part of deployment pipelines
Alternatives:
  • SchemaCrawler – Java-based tool with broader metadata extraction but less CI/CD native integration
  • dbdocs – Cloud-based service with visual diagrams, whereas tbls is a local CLI tool
