GeekORM

GeekORM is a simple, lightweight Object Relational Mapper (ORM) for Rust that makes working with databases straightforward and type-safe.

Features

  • Type-Safe: Leverage Rust’s type system for compile-time query validation
  • Simple API: Easy-to-use interface for common database operations
  • Multiple Databases: Support for SQLite, PostgreSQL, and more
  • Lightweight: Minimal dependencies and overhead
  • Developer-Friendly: Great error messages and documentation

Getting Started

Add GeekORM to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
geekorm = "0.1"

Example Usage

use geekorm::{prelude::*, GeekConnection};

#[derive(Table, Debug, Clone)]
struct User {
    #[geekorm(primary_key, auto_increment)]
    id: PrimaryKey<i32>,
    username: String,
    email: String,
}

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let conn = GeekConnection::new("sqlite::memory:")?;
    
    // Create table
    User::create_table(&conn)?;
    
    // Insert user
    let user = User::new("geekmasher", "hello@geekmasher.dev")
        .save(&conn)?;
    
    // Query users
    let users = User::query().fetch_all(&conn)?;
    
    Ok(())
}
