PgRoutiner VS Knex

If you're using PostgreSQL raw queries, there is this dotnet tool also, which I find much more useful: https://github.com/vb-consulting/PgRoutiner

My idea was that you basically focus on your database and just run command and it generates a .net project and code for you. You can check it out here: https://github.com/vb-consulting/PgRoutiner

There is, I made something similar for my needs.

Docs could be better, but it's a open source and free I did in my free ti lme without sponsors or any money.

I've created a C# CRUD generator for my needs: https://github.com/vb-consulting/PgRoutiner

It's actually a command-line tool (for now, planning to integrate a UI) called pgroutiner: https://github.com/vb-consulting/PgRoutiner

Knex.js

AdonisJS core team has created/maintains Lucid. It is a SQL query builder, and an Active Record ORM built on top of Knex.

Now, why not use an ORM? I've seen performance issues too many times with ORMs. I prefer writing my own SQL to avoid surprises. After all, I know the database schema and writing code for a specific purpose very often leads to better performance than generic code. ORMs have to support all kinds of database schemas. I only have to support mine. Having successfully used Knex.js in NodeJS (a popular query builder) in the past, I know writing SQL queries myself is not hard and provides very good performance.

Given the dynamic nature of the schema, we employ Knex, a query builder, for database access.

This article will be focused on a security issue that I found in Knex and how to mitigate it, but I'll also talk briefly about the social aspects of this problem.

SQL is an old, irregular language to work with, but it is better known than HCL and SQL already has it's own Pulumi/CDK in the form of every ORM with introspection (like Javascript's Prisma, Python's Django, Go's XO etc) and QueryBuilder (LINQ, Knex, etc) in whatever programming language you prefer. You probably already know it.
