RubyMine 2020.1 Help

Run database code

You can run your code by using shortcuts, toolbar buttons and icons, a context menu, and run/debug configurations. You can run a query from query consoles, scratch files, and user files.

Run statements from an open file

In RubyMine, you can open and run a file. Limitation for the file size is 20 MB. When you open a file that is larger than 20 MB, you see only first 2.5 MB of the file.

  1. Open the Project tool window (View | Tool Windows | Project) and double-click an SQL file.

  2. Click the statement that you want to execute.

    Also, you can select (highlight) the fragment of code that you want to execute. It can be a subquery or a group of statements. RubyMine executes only the selection.

  3. Press Ctrl+Enter or select Execute from the context menu.

  4. (Optional) If the SQL file is not connected to a data source, select or create a connection session in the <session> list. For more information about sessions, see Run database code.

  5. In the Statements window, press Enter to run the selected statement. You can switch between other entries to run another set of statements. Statements that you are going to execute are highlighted in the editor.
