Adding MySQL files in TheBrain #95735

Hello Steven,

I believe I have answered this during TheBrain 101 with you 🙂  Great to hear from you again!

Yes, you can use TheBrain to link to SQL files, as these are simple text files. Here are some tips to manage and reference them effectively:

1. Linking to an SQL File:
   • Drag and drop your .sql file into TheBrain, or use the Attach File option to link it to a thought.
   • Once attached, clicking on the file in TheBrain will open it in your default SQL editor or text editor.

2. Referencing Specific Sections Inside an SQL File:

• • While TheBrain cannot directly read or access the content of an .sql file, you can add a thought-specific note in TheBrain describing the relevant section of the file (e.g., "This file contains Query 1 in Section 2").
  • Alternatively, if the SQL file is hosted on a server or Git repository, you could create a hyperlink in the thought's note that points directly to the file or a specific section in your external repository.

If you have any further questions or need assistance setting this up, feel free to let me know!

Best regards,

John
