squel-ts

squel-ts (v1.1.5) is a TypeScript and ESM fork of the abandoned squel SQL query builder library. It provides a flexible, zero-dependency query string builder for SQL databases, supporting SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and engine-specific commands (MySQL etc.) via a fluent, chainable API. Released as a maintenance fork, it targets modern Node.js (>=12) and browsers, with built-in TypeScript definitions. Unlike Knex, it generates raw query strings without requiring a connection, making it lightweight for embedding. Release cadence is low; consider it in maintenance mode.
