Go ORMs Compared
SQLBoiler takes a database-first approach, generating Go code from your database schema. This means it creates highly optimized and custom-tailored code for your specific database schema. SQLBoiler is great for applications where the database schema is well-defined and changes infrequently. However, like sqlc, it requires regenerating the code when the database schema changes. It's well-suited for projects where performance is a key concern and the database design is stable.

Comparing database/sql, GORM, sqlx, and sqlc
Moved all my projects to https://github.com/volatiletech/sqlboiler.

Are there any decent ORMs in Golang?

Any mid sized / big open source code base in golang that makes use of SQL DBs?
My current ORM of choice is Bob [GitHub Link] which I created based on my experience using and maintaining SQLBoiler [GitHub Link].

GORM
You mean like ORMs? * sqlboiler: generates Go ORM using database schema.
-
ORM or no ORM (and which ones)?
SQL code generator (aka inspect a database or SQL files to generate data models). You have the option of using something like volatiletech/sqlboiler which looks at the a physical database and generates code based on the schema. Or SQLC which is an amazing and fast project.

Using Prisma Migrate with a Dockerized Postgres
After trying a half dozen migration engines for NodeJS, I was pleased to see Prisma and its excellent documentation. As a golang developer I am partial to SQLBoiler and its database-first approach, though perhaps this is a condition of our community where we want all the knobs. Prisma was code-first but still gave me enough control to feel confident.

Can anyone help me on how you are using golang with databases in production systems?
I use sqlboiler which generates an ORM from your database, and sql-migrate which is a tool for managing SQL migrations. Although you have to write your migrations in SQL, which IMHO is a plus.

Go overtook Ruby and ranked #3 among the most used backend languages for pull requests since 2021
FWIW, the other posts point to https://gobuffalo.io/ and https://github.com/volatiletech/sqlboiler as possibilities.

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).
- I greatly dislike ORMs, but I find myself wanting ORM agnostic SQL migration tools. What do you use to perform RDBMS table migrations outside of an ORM?
What are some alternatives?
