It packages a narrow but valuable bridge between older database connectivity and columnar analytics storage. ### Project history The public GitHub repository was created on 2020-08-27. The README frames the tool around small memory usage, ODBC bulk reads, and flexibility across any data source with an ODBC driver, including examples for SQL Server-style connection strings and DSNs. The changelog shows steady maintenance and semantic versioning. Version 1.0.0 established semantic versioning and wrote Parquet 2.0; later releases added commands such as exec, refined timestamp and decimal behavior, updated odbc-api and parquet dependencies, and tuned logging. ### Adoption history Distribution exists through Homebrew, Scoop, GitHub release binaries, and Cargo. That footprint matches the tool's cross-platform database-export role: Windows users often already have an ODBC manager, while Linux and macOS users install unixODBC. ### How it is used Users run odbc2parquet query with a connection string or DSN, an output Parquet path, and SQL. The tool maps ODBC type information to Parquet physical/logical types, streams batches instead of holding the full result in memory, and can list drivers or data sources for troubleshooting. The insert and exec workflows make it useful in the other direction too: Parquet files can become input to parameterized database writes through ODBC drivers. ### Why package nerds care odbc2parquet is a good example of modern Rust CLI packaging around old enterprise plumbing. It avoids building a database-specific exporter for every engine by leaning on ODBC, then emits Parquet, the interchange format expected by many analytics stacks. ### Timeline - 2020-08-27: public GitHub repository created. - Version 1.0.0: changelog records Parquet 2.0 output and semantic versioning. - 2026-06-13: changelog lists version 11.0.1. ### Related projects - The tool is closely related to the author's odbc-api Rust bindings and to the Apache Parquet Rust implementation used by downstream Parquet CLIs and data tools. ### Sources - - - - - - - ## Security Notes narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Source Database Details - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** odbc2parquet - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Head Version:** HEAD - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** head, stable ## Other Package-Manager Records - Scoop - main/odbc2parquet: normalized package name match | Scoop official bucket manifest trees: bucket/odbc2parquet.json from https://api.github.com/repos/ScoopInstaller/Main/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Related links - [Source-control packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [unixodbc](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/unixodbc/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [pkgconf](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/pkgconf/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [rust](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/rust/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [avce00](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/avce00/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, conversion, data. - [gpsbabel](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/gpsbabel/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, conversion, data. - [mdbtools](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/mdbtools/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, data, database, odbc. - [apache-geode](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/apache-geode/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, data, database. - [arcadedb](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/arcadedb/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, data, database. - [astra](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/astra/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, data, database. - [automysqlbackup](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/automysqlbackup/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, data, database. - [basex](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/basex/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, data, database. - [psql2csv](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/psql2csv/) - Local metadata places this package in an adjacent workflow.
