## What it is
aiosql is a Python library that lets you write SQL queries in plain .sql files and load them into your application as callable methods, a port of Clojure's yesql. It supports both sync and asyncio drivers for SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL, DuckDB, and other PEP 249-compatible databases.

## Use cases
- load sql queries from files in python
- keep sql out of python string literals
- use asyncpg or aiosqlite with named queries
- version control sql alongside application code
- reuse sql files in psql and python
- yesql for python

## When to choose
- you want raw SQL as first-class code files instead of an ORM
- you use asyncio database drivers and want named query methods
- you want to run the same SQL in CLI tools and your Python app

## When to avoid
- you prefer an ORM with models and migrations
- you need dynamic query building rather than predefined statements
- your database driver lacks a PEP 249-compatible adapter

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: database, database-driver, orm
- domain: databases, developer-tools, backend
- platform: python, cross-platform
- tags: sql, yesql, asyncio, sql-files, query-loading, pep-249
