Tedious is an implementation of the TDS protocol, which is used to interact with instances of Microsoft's SQL Server.
Tedious is simply derived from a fast, slightly garbled, pronunciation of the letters T, D and S.
Current version: v0.0.6
Although subject to change, this is the rough plan for the next few versions.
- overhaul of how incoming data is read and buffered
- support for more data types for parameters
- some support for TDS 7.1
- transaction management
- support for more data types for parameters
- support for varchar(max), nvarchar(max) and varbinary(max) as streams
- secure connections
- decoding of column metadata flags
- full decoding of collation data
- ability to cancel a request
