This is impressive. Java is a minor bother, would be running it in dev and then dropping the bash script onto prod anyway.

Uhm, TBH installing Java seems an overkill as well. I understand that parsing SQL would be harder without it, though.

Java is only necessary for the "compilation" of the query. The resulting bash script uses only standard unix tools and runs without java.

This is very cool! I do agree that installing java is downside :(
