Writing optimized queries can take a lot of time, and writing complex queries is very hard.

As a database developer, you may have felt this way when you had to spend hours writing complex queries that worked well and didn't have any mistakes. This can take a lot of time and even cause bugs in your code.

There's a better way, though! Using ChatGPT, you can write complex queries in a few minutes. Let's see the useful ChatGPT commands to do database management and write complex queries.

1. Prompts to write simple queries for any database

Prompt:

Write a [Language] Query

While working on new functionality, we need test data. We can use ChatGPT as a data feeder as follows:

2. ChatGPT Prompt to design a database schema

Prompt: Act as a [database name] developer, I am building an e-commerce system. Create a database scheme and write queries to create it that can be scaled to millions of users.

Columns: user_id, age, dob, address

Number of records: 30

Suppose you are not working directly with databases; you are using frameworks like Epxress.js, Django, or Laravel, and you work with models.

You can write ORM queries using ChatGPT as follows:

5. Prompt to write ORM/Model queries for any database and frameworks

Prompt:

[Write a query description with the operation you want to do]
