# PDO Shell Plugin
This is a plugin to interactively work with PDO.
## Usage
The simplest use is invoking the shell directly:
$ spark pdo:shell
PDO[db]>
You are presented with a prompt containing the string "PDO", follwed by the currently
selected resource in brackets. Commands start with a period (`.`) and you can get a
list of the valid commands with `.help`.
To run a query, you can either run it directly:
PDO[db]> SELECT id FROM users WHERE username='bob'
Or let the shell do the escaping for you:
PDO[db]> .query "SELECT id FROM users WHERE username=?" bob
You can also read the commands from a file and have them executed as if they were
entered into the shell:
$ spark pdo:shell -r sparkrc
### Selecting the resource
This can be done from the command line:
$ spark pdo:shell --db otherdb
Or from within the shell:
PDO[db]> .select otherdb
PDO[otherdb]>
