A Tasty Treat For All Your Database Needs

POP

A Tasty Treat For All Your Database Needs

So what does Pop do exactly? Well, it wraps the absolutely amazing https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx library. It cleans up some of the common patterns and work flows usually associated with dealing with databases in Go.

Pop makes it easy to do CRUD operations, run migrations, and build/execute queries.

Pop, by default, follows conventions that were influenced by the ActiveRecord Ruby gem. What does this mean?

• Tables must have an "id" column and a corresponding "ID" field on the struct being used.
• If there is a timestamp column named created_at, and a CreatedAt time.Time attribute on the struct, it will be set with the current time when the record is created.
• If there is a timestamp column named updated_at, and a UpdatedAt time.Time attribute on the struct, it will be set with the current time when the record is updated.
• Default database table names are lowercase, plural, and underscored versions of the struct name. Examples: User{} is "users", FooBar{} is "foo_bars", etc...
