tbls

The single binary design and dedicated GitHub Action allow seamless integration into continuous integration pipelines, as demonstrated in the README with example workflows for automated documentation generation.

tbls connects to over a dozen databases including PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, and MongoDB, with detailed DSN examples provided for each, making it versatile for mixed environments.

It generates documentation in multiple formats like Markdown, DOT, PlantUML, Mermaid, and images (SVG, PNG, JPG), enabling flexible use cases from static docs to visual ER diagrams.

The tool includes configurable linting rules to enforce documentation standards, such as requiring column comments and limiting column counts, which helps maintain consistency across teams.
