  • Don't use your ORM entities for everything – embrace the SQL

    I guess I failed to set the context correctly given that you presented solutions for Clojure and Python, where it isn't as much of a problem since from the start the language fails to provide compiler guarantees you usually come to expect out of a SQL driver wrapper in typed languages (even though Clojure macros are probably powerful enough to allow this).

    As a comparison, DX-wise this is no safer and is indeed very similar to the usual idiom in Go for example, where you just concatenate (pre-interpolated) SQL strings. But when you actually want the compiler to prove the correctness of your queries even in a rudimentary way, these .sql file solutions usually (if not, everytime) fail to provide the necessary external checker that processes templates and uses an accurate model of your database and SQL to verify that all used combinations make sense.

    The closest thing to a proper take on this I've seen is https://github.com/andywer/squid with https://github.com/andywer/postguard which, although the SQL is inlined in the code, it uses the right approach for verifying correctness as far as I could tell in the little time I experimented with it.

  • Trilogy – GitHub-built MySQL client library written in C
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 15 Dec 2021
    Naming is hard and conflicts are easy, but this project clashes with my own project called Trilogy. Both for SQL-family, although mine is in the JavaScript realm. I'm not too surprised someone followed the logic did to get the name.

    Not a huge project but has some users, and I still try to work on it to get the typings (TypeScript) where I want them.
