Understanding the ChartSQL Studio Workspace

Workspace Overview

The ChartSQL Studio Editor is organized into a Workspace. Within your Workspace you add Folders from your file system, and Datasources to connect to.

Folders

Add Folders to your workspace to be able to edit SQL scripts and create charts. Typically each folder will contains SQL scripts that are related to a particular client or that are related together. Typically SQL scripts are stored in source control.

See Folders for more details.

A 'Scratchpad' folder that is stored in your Users directory is added automatically to your installation so you can get started right away writing scripts. Typically your SQL scripts will live in source control on your file system.

Datasources

Add Datasources to your work space to connect to SQL databases that your charts will run against. Any SQL script can be run against any Datasource, but typically you will define a default Datasource that scripts in each Folder will execute against.

See Datasources for more details.
