  Fluent SQL generation for golang

  

I love ORMs. As someone who has worked with Rails in the past, I realized that it saves a ton of time and energy to just call User.find(:id). When I switched to Go, I realized just how much I really needed it to feel comfortable. Writing a bunch of Raw SQL and functions that basically just return SQL is hard. You could use a query builder like squirrel, but a lot of times that seems kind of like writing SQL, just with Go syntax. So I decided to create my own ORM, built on Generics, that feels just like Active Record. You can see it here. I love it. If you don't want to use mine specifically, there are a few other options out there, such as Gorm or Ent, also.
