wrappers VS sqlx

I used one of their open source work in a project: https://github.com/supabase/wrappers

It’s appreciated since SaaS on AWS is a no-no in my field.

I’m currently playing with PostgreSQL, foreign data wrappers, and pgrx rust extensions. My development experience has been surprisingly smooth and enjoyable.

My main issue is that joins will be processed locally, so all the foreign data will be fetched before the join happens. But otherwise basic CRUD is easy.

However, considering the emergence of Supabase wrappers, it might be more beneficial to develop a walkthrough focused on creating Rust-based wrappers. This way, the community can start building a variety of useful wrappers (really plugins).

We're experimenting with including tables connected to external data sources using Supabase Wrappers https://github.com/supabase/wrappers as a way to link external APIs into the GraphQL schema but that work is in an early stage. That approach would be limited to the Stripe, Firebase and S3 for now though

This would be an ideal use case for a postgresql foreign data wrapper. See more here: https://github.com/supabase/wrappers/

> On a sidenote, is not the wrappers for Airtable, BigQuery and ClickHouse opensourced? Or why did they skip that column in the second table?

All of the wrappers are open source. You can see the source for the Airtable, BigQuery, and ClickHouse wrappers here https://github.com/supabase/wrappers/tree/5fac8afb62e6e8362b...

The `self-hosted` column is only missing from the "under development" wrappers in the blog post's table because those are not production ready and shouldn't be self hosted (yet).

For PostgreSQL, the most relevent part of the code is here. With this in mind I changed some things around to rely on schemas instead of databases and even simplified some parts of the implementation as this was always meant to be for internal use only..

What exactly are you missing? I haven't really written "boring corporate backend stuff" in a few years but something like sqlx provides everything I've ever needed there.

Badges are the little rectangles you typically see at the top of a crate's README: https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx/blob/main/README.md

SQLX has entered the chat [1].

Database : SqLite (using sqlx).

The current (well, removed) MSSQL sqlx driver also doesn't support encrypted connections (https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx/issues/1552), so it might work locally on an unnamed instance but not over the network until they add in the newer driver (which will be closed source but for an OSS project you should be able to request a free license I think)

I'm considering making my own wrapper over lower-level database drivers. There are a lot of features in sqlx that I don't need, and the latest version seems to have removed useful data structures that SQLPage is using. It also removed support for SQL Server.

add Ed25519 to AuthPlugin enum on https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx/blob/061fdcabd72896d9bc3abb4ea4af6712a04bc0a8/sqlx-core/src/mysql/connection/auth.rs and implement them using these crates:
