ecto_dev_logger
An Ecto query logger that inlines bindings into SQL for easy copy-paste debugging and highlights database time.
What is ecto_dev_logger?
Ecto.DevLogger is an alternative logger for Ecto queries that transforms logged SQL by directly inlining parameter bindings, converting Elixir values like UUIDs, DateTimes, and Decimals into SQL literals. It produces copy-pasteable SQL that can be run directly in database IDEs, improving the debugging experience for developers. The logger also highlights database execution time and source tables to quickly identify slow queries.
Elixir developers using Ecto for database interactions who need to debug SQL queries in development environments, particularly those who frequently copy queries into database management tools for analysis.
Developers choose Ecto.DevLogger because it eliminates the manual conversion of Elixir data types to SQL, saving time and reducing errors during debugging. Its unique selling point is generating immediately executable SQL with inline bindings and highlighting for readability, unlike default Ecto logging which leaves parameters separate.
