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.

What are popular ORMs for Node.js?
GraphQL.js + Knex.js + knex-types (TypeScript generator for Knex)
-
What database should i use with node.
And in order to have auto-complete and type checking, you can combine it with knex-types.
-
graphql-code-generator - how do I generate enums from TypeScript enums?
I generate TypeScript enums and types from the actual database schema using knex-types as part of the yarn db:reset script that used during local development (after making changes to the db schema migration files). See example project.
-
🔰🦸 Production-ready template for backends created with Node.js, Typescript and Express
I tried to take advantage of TypeORM in a couple of projects, but then reverted back to knex + knex-types — just a PostgreSQL client with query builder works great, IMO, especially for GraphQL API development.
-
Any Laravel Eloquent like ORM for node.js?
Nope. Just plain GraphQL.js + Knex.js (example), often typed manually since it's not where most of the time spend on when building an API server (though it can be automated via a scaffolding script if there are too many db tables). Generating TypeScript definitions off the actual db schema using knex-types (example).

Generate TypeScript definitions from PostgreSQL
Luckily, there is a solution! Assuming you have a database table that looks like this (Knex migration):
- Generate TypeScript types from PostgreSQL database schema
- Generate TypeScript definitions from a PostgreSQL database schema

Type-Safe Printf() in TypeScript
There is an implementation of SQL that operates on a table shaped type, entirely at type level. For your amusement: https://github.com/codemix/ts-sql
There are a bunch of more practical takes that codegen types from your database and generate types for your queries, eg: https://github.com/adelsz/pgtyped
To me the second approach seems much more pragmatic because you don’t need to run a SQL parser in a fairly potato interpreter on every build
-
ORMs are nice but they are the wrong abstraction
ORMs suck, but raw SQL embedded in your code sucks too.
This might be good time to plug my TypeScript non-ORM: https://jawj.github.io/zapatos/.
I should say I also like what I've seen of https://kysely.dev/ and https://pgtyped.dev/.

An effective way to build a heavy CRUD Rest API?
Thank you for suggestions they helped me finding what I was looking for. I will either pick kysely or https://pgtyped.dev/, but first I will do some tests. Thanks!

compile-time SQL validations and type generation in TypeScript & Node
Cool. How does this compare to SafeQL, PgTyped, and Postgres language server ?
-
Petrol: embedding a type-safe SQL API in OCaml using GADTs
I would instead rely on code generation like https://github.com/adelsz/pgtyped, because the embedded type-safe SQL will never fully cover all the features of vanilla SQL, for example Common Table Expression (CTE), window functions etc.

Deno 1.33: Deno 2 is coming
There's pgtyped, which I believe does almost the same as sqlc

Kysely: TypeScript SQL Query Builder
For Postgres there is https://github.com/adelsz/pgtyped, sounds pretty much like what you describe?
-
Is postgresql-typed a good starting library for a production application?
Avoiding the cost of learning EDSL that many Haskell DB libraries provide, I found out that only postgresql-typed and postgresql-simple allow to write only raw SQL queries easily. As I extensively use pgtyped for production Node.js application, I am thinking about using postgresql-typed. While I could find many resources for postgresql-simple, the same cannot be said try for postgresql-typed.
-
This package is so underrated.
I would highly recommend trying out pgTyped if you want typesafe queries with postgres. It's fantastic!
