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.

We Went All in on Sqlc/Pgx for Postgres and Go
- generate code from running database and use a type-safe query builder (https://github.com/bokwoon95/go-structured-query)

JOOQ library equivalent for Go?
https://github.com/bokwoon95/go-structured-query plugging my library, which was inspired by jOOQ. Do check it out and see if it fits your needs.

what's your experience writing sql with go?
I'm a big fan of go-structured-query. I quite like the code generation of tables from a database schema, as well as the core struct mapper feature both for reads/writes to the database, which keep the domain entities clean of any struct tags.

I don't want to learn your garbage query language
Interesting. I've been looking at https://github.com/bokwoon95/go-structured-query but I'll have to look at reform too, now. Thanks.
