+# SqlQuery
+
+Ruby gem to load SQL queries from `.sql.erb` templates using ERB.
+
+It makes working with pure SQL easier with syntax highlighting.
+Let's you clean your Ruby code from SQL strings.
+
+## Installation
+
+Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
+
+    gem 'sql_query'
+
+And then execute:
+
+    $ bundle
+
+Or install it yourself as:
+
+    $ gem install sql_query
+
+## Usage
+
+Create SQL query in file in `app/sql_queries` directory
+
+```sql
+# app/sql_queries/get_player_by_email.sql.erb
+SELECT *
+FROM players
+WHERE email = <%= quote @email %>
+```
+
+You can use SQL like this:
+
+```shell
+> query = SqlQuery.new(sql_name: :get_player_by_email, email: 'e@mail.dev')
+
+> query.execute
+   (0.6ms)  SELECT * FROM players WHERE email = 'e@mail.dev'
+=> []
+
+> query.explain
+=> EXPLAIN for:
+SELECT *
+FROM players
+WHERE email = 'e@mail.dev'
+
+                        QUERY PLAN
+----------------------------------------------------------
+ Seq Scan on players  (cost=0.00..2.14 rows=1 width=5061)
+   Filter: ((email)::text = 'e@mail.dev'::text)
+(2 rows)
+
+> query.sql
+=> "SELECT *\nFROM players\nWHERE email = 'e@mail.dev'\n"
+
+>  query.pretty_sql
+=> SELECT *
+FROM players
+WHERE email = 'e@mail.dev'
+```
+
+### Methods
+
+- **execute** - executes query and returns result data.
+
+- **explain** - runs explain for SQL from template
+- **sql** - returns SQL string
+- **pretty_sql** - return SQL string prettier to read in console
+
