What is SchemaCrawler?

SchemaCrawler is a free, open-source command-line tool for database schema discovery, documentation, and analysis. It generates ER diagrams, text output designed for diffing, Markdown docs, JSON, and CSV. It includes schema lint (finds design problems), grep (regex search across schema objects), scripting support (Python, JavaScript), and a GitHub Actions integration for CI/CD. Works with any relational database with a JDBC driver.
