Making your PowerShell ISE cool with SQL Ice – SQLIse now available as part of the SQL Server PowerShell Extensions (SQLPSX) v2.1 release

Chad Miller’s Blog - SQLIse A Powershell Based SQL Server Query Tool

SQL Server Powershell Powershell Extensions (SQLPSX) has been updated to version 2.1. The most notable change is the addition of a Powershell Integrated Scripting Editor (ISE) module called SQLIse (pronounced “SQL Ice”). The module provides a basic IDE for T-SQL that includes the ability to edit, execute, parse and format SQL code from within Powershell ISE.

SQLIse Features
  • Offline parsing of T-SQL code
  • Formatting (prettifying) of T-SQL with an extensive customization abilities
  • Comment/Uncomment T-SQL code
  • Uppercase/Lowercase T-SQL code
  • Execute T-SQL code and output to grid, text, text file or CSV file
  • Apply any of the above actions to selections of code by highlighting

Sounds like a cool way to extend the PowerShell ISE.
