Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Ask HN: What tool(s) do you use to code review and deploy SQL scripts?
A regular code repo with the scripts (with pull/merge requests for review) and then a CI job that builds containers with something like dbmate https://github.com/amacneil/dbmate that can then be run against any staging/prod environment.

Level UP your RDBMS Productivity in GO
As we want to maintain the track of our changes to the DB, we are going to use migrations. In this case, we are going to use dbmate. But, you can use any other tool you want.

Rails 7.1 Released
> For example having database migrations built in etc.
I actually went the exact opposite route, at least when possible: https://github.com/amacneil/dbmate
Pure SQL migrations, regardless of the back end technology that you use, completely decoupled from how each framework/library views things and therefore not dependent on them (you could even rewrite the back end in another technology later on, if needed; or swap ORMs; or avoid issues when there's a major ORM version update).
It's really nice when you can generate entity mappings based on a live database, like with https://blog.jetbrains.com/dotnet/2022/01/31/entity-framewor...
So in my case, I can have:
* a DB that has migrations applied with dbmate, completely decoupled from any back end(s) that might use it

How do your teams run DB migrations?
You can run dbmate as part of your CI/CD pipeline. You just keep a dbmate directory in your repo and deploy migrations with your code.

Working with TypeORM 0.3x with Nestjs - I wasn't aware so many people were facing issues with it
In general with ORMs, you will face a problem in one way or another. I ended up simply using https://github.com/gajus/slonik and https://github.com/amacneil/dbmate for migrations. My life is way much better since then.

what do you use for migrations? or how do you the sql tables and seeding?
I like dbmate, super simple and straightforward to use. For your specific use case, it can also be configured using your .env!

New post: Is Prisma better than your 'traditional' ORM?
Would always go for a language agnostic migration tool, e.g. https://github.com/amacneil/dbmate to stay flexible and stay away from lock-in effects (besides sql).

Pgroll: zero-downtime, undoable, schema migrations for Postgres
Forr postgres, how does the schema diffing aspect compare to migra?
https://github.com/djrobstep/migra
I'm asking because, although migra is excellent and there are multiple migrations tools based on it (at least https://github.com/bikeshedder/tusker and https://github.com/blainehansen/postgres_migrator), issues are piling up but development seem to be slowing down

Supabase Local Dev: migrations, branching, and observability
We’ve extended the CLI migration feature and added Dashboard support. Database migrations give you a way to update your database using version-controlled SQL files. We’ve built a lot of tooling around our migrations, including reparation, migration cleanup using the squash command, and diffing (using migra) to generate a new migration or to detect schema drift.

Is this similar to migra? There's a tool written in Rust that calls it, postgres_migrator (there's also tusker)

Prisma laying off 28% staff
If you wish to auto-generate migrations, there are declarative schema change tools available for most relational databases. I'm the creator of Skeema [1] which provides them for MySQL, but there are options for other DBs too [2][3][4].
Prisma's migration system actually partially copied Skeema's design, while giving credit in a rather odd fashion which really rubbed me the wrong way: "The workflow of working with temporary databases and introspecting it to determine differences between schemas seems to be pretty common, this is for example what skeema does." [5]
While I doubt I was the first person to ever use that technique, I absolutely didn't copy it from anywhere, and it was never "pretty common". I'm not aware of any other older schema change systems that work this way.

Ask HN: ORM or Native SQL?
The best solution I've ever seen is this Rust library https://github.com/cornucopia-rs/cornucopia
You write plain SQL for you schema (just a schema.sql is enough) and plain SQL functions for your queries. Then it generates Rust types and Rust functions from from that. If you don't use Rust, maybe there's a library like that for your favorite language.
Optionally, pair it with https://github.com/bikeshedder/tusker or https://github.com/blainehansen/postgres_migrator (both are based off https://github.com/djrobstep/migra) to generate migrations by diffing your schema.sql files, and https://github.com/rust-db/refinery to perform those migrations.
Now, if you have simple crud needs, you should probably use https://postgrest.org/en/stable/ and not an ORM. There are packages like https://www.npmjs.com/package/@supabase/postgrest-js (for JS / typescript) and probably for other languages too.
If you insist on an ORM, the best of the bunch is prisma https://www.prisma.io/ - outside of the typescript/javascript ecosystem it has ports for some other languages (with varying degrees of completion), the one I know about is the Rust one https://prisma.brendonovich.dev/introduction

How to sustainably developer SQL database code (schemas, functions, ...)?
I'd love to be able to be able to declaratively make changes directly in the table create commands instead of manually creating new migration scripts every time. I've found migra (we use PostgreSQL) and it seems to be exactly what I'm looking for. I'm curious about other people's experience and why things like Migra are the norm.
