$ go get github.com/azer/crud/v2

import (

)

var DB *crud.DB

func init () {
  var err error
  DB, err = crud.Connect("mysql", os.Getenv("DATABASE_URL"))
  err = DB.Ping()
}

type User struct {
  Id int `sql:"auto-increment primary-key"`
  FirstName string
  LastName string
  ProfileId int
}

type Profile struct {
  Id int `sql:"auto-increment primary-key"`
  Bio string `sql:"text"`
}

CRUD will automatically convert column names from "FirstName" (CamelCase) to "first_name" (snake_case) for you. You can still choose custom names though;

type Post struct {
  Slug string `sql:"name=slug_id varchar(255) primary-key required"`
}

If no primary key is specified, CRUD will look for a field named "Id" with int type, and set it as auto-incrementing primary-key field.

CreateTables takes list of structs and makes sure they exist in the database.

err := DB.CreateTables(User{}, Profile{})

err := DB.DropTables(User{}, Profile{})

Shortcut for dropping and creating tables.

err := DB.ResetTables(User{}, Profile{})

CRUD tries to be smart about figuring out the best SQL options for your structs, and lets you choose manually, too. For example;

type Tweet struct {
 Text string `sql:"varchar(140) required name=tweet"`
}

Above example sets the type of the Text column as varchar(140), makes it required (NOT NULL) and changes the column name as tweet.

Here is the list of the options that you can pass;

• Types: int, bigint, varchar, text, date, time, timestamp
• auto-increment / autoincrement / auto_increment
• primary-key / primarykey / primary_key
• required
• default='?'
• name=?
• table-name=?

If you'd like a struct field to be ignored by CRUD, choose - as options:

type Foo struct {
 IgnoreMe string `sql:"-"`
}

Simply pass a struct. It can be pointer or not.

user := &User{1, "Foo", "Bar", 1}
err := DB.Create(user)

Create a row, and read it back from the DB. The values of the struct you passed get resetted to whatever the corresponding DB row has. In the other words, CreateAndRead creates, and reads. So you got fields generated by the DB scanned to your struct, like ID.

Make sure passing a pointer.

user := User{
  FirstName:"Foo"
}

err := DB.CreateAndRead(&user)

user.Id
// => 123

You can read single/multiple rows, or custom values, with the Read method.

Pass your struct's pointer, and a query;

user := &User{}
err := DB.Read(user, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?", 1)
// => SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = 1

fmt.Println(user.Name)
// => Foo

users := []*User{}

err := DB.Read(&users, "SELECT * FROM users")
// => SELECT * FROM users

fmt.Println(len(users))
// => 10

names := []string{}
err := DB.Read(&names, "SELECT name FROM users")

name := ""
err := DB.Read(&name, "SELECT name FROM users WHERE id=1")

totalUsers := 0
err := DB.Read(&totalUsers, "SELECT COUNT(id) FROM users"

Updates matching row in database, returns sql.ErrNoRows nothing matched.

user := &User{}
err := DB.Read(user, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?", 1)

user.Name = "Yolo"
err := DB.Update(user)

Deletes matching row in database, returns sql.ErrNoRows nothing matched.

err := DB.Delete(&User{
  Id: 1
})

Use WithContext method to get a DB client with context. Here is an example;

db := DB.WithContext(context.Background())

Use Begin method of a crud.DB instance to create a new transaction. Each transaction will provide you following methods;

• Commit
• Rollback
• Exec
• Query
• Create
• CreateAndRead
• Read
• Update
• Delete

tx, err := DB.Begin(context.Background())

err := tx.Create(&User{
  Name: "yolo"
})

err := tx.Delete(&User{
  Id: 123
})

err := tx.Commit()

CRUD generates an ID for each transaction, and uses that for logging queries and the state of the transactions. You can override transaction IDs in some use cases such as having same IDs and ID field keys with your Rest framework generating request IDs;

tx.Id = requestId
tx.IdKey = "requestId"

If you want to see crud's internal logs, specify crud in the LOG environment variable when you run your app. For example;

$ LOG=crud go run myapp.go

result, err := DB.Query("DROP DATABASE yolo") // or .Exec

DATABASE_URL="?" go test ./...

• Hooks: I'm not sure if this is needed, but worths to consider.
• Foreign Keys: *
• Make UTF-8 Default: Looks like the default charset is not UTF8.
