Query AWS RDS Data from the command line

Goal

Installing

Prebuilt binaries for some major platforms are available under Github releases.

If you have the Rust tool chain installed, cargo install query-rds-data will work.

Building

This project is written in Rust. The way to install Rust is from Rustup.rs. Once Rust is installed on your machine, running cargo build in the root of this checkout should just work and produces a debug binary in target/debug/query-rds-data.
