Typed Raw SQL

Write Go interfaces, describe the raw SQL you want in comments, and let the CLI turn it into typed Go methods. Template variables expand into table names and parameters, while the generator binds values and inserts a context.Context where it is missing.

type Query[T any] interface {
  // SELECT * FROM @@table WHERE id=@id
  GetByID(id int) (T, error)

  // SELECT * FROM @@table WHERE @@column=@value
  FilterWithColumn(column string, value string) (T, error)

  // SELECT * FROM @@table
  // {{where}}
  //   {{if user.Name }} name=@user.Name {{end}}
  //   {{if user.Age > 0}} AND age=@user.Age {{end}}
  // {{end}}
  SearchUsers(user User) ([]T, error)

  // UPDATE @@table
  // {{set}}
  //   {{if user.Name != ""}} name=@user.Name, {{end}}
  //   {{if user.Age > 0}} age=@user.Age, {{end}}
  //   {{if user.Age >= 18}} is_adult=1 {{else}} is_adult=0 {{end}}
  // {{end}}
  // WHERE id=@id
  UpdateUser(user User, id int) error
}

Usage Examples

// SQL: SELECT * FROM users WHERE id=123
user, err := generated.Query[User](db).GetByID(ctx, 123)

// SQL: SELECT * FROM users WHERE name="jinzhu" AND age=25 (appended to current builder)
users, err := generated.Query[User](db).FilterByNameAndAge("jinzhu", 25).Find(ctx)

// SQL: UPDATE users SET name="jinzhu", age=20, is_adult=1 WHERE id=1
err := generated.Query[User](db).UpdateUser(ctx, User{Name: "jinzhu", Age: 20}, 1)

Template DSL

Directive	Purpose	Example
`@@table`	Model table name	`SELECT * FROM @@table WHERE id=@id`
`@@column`	Dynamic column binding	`@@column=@value`
`@param`	Bind Go params to SQL params	`WHERE name=@user.Name`
`{{where}}`	Conditional WHERE wrapper	`{{where}} age > 18 {{end}}`
`{{set}}`	Conditional SET wrapper (UPDATE)	`{{set}} name=@name {{end}}`
`{{if}}`	Conditional SQL fragment	`{{if age > 0}} AND age=@age {{end}}`
`{{for}}`	Iterate over a collection	`{{for _, t := range tags}} ... {{end}}`

SQL Snippets

-- Safe parameter binding
SELECT * FROM @@table WHERE id=@id AND status=@status

-- Dynamic column binding
SELECT * FROM @@table WHERE @@column=@value

-- Conditional WHERE
SELECT * FROM @@table
{{where}}
  {{if name != ""}} name=@name {{end}}
  {{if age > 0}} AND age=@age {{end}}
{{end}}

-- Dynamic UPDATE
UPDATE @@table
{{set}}
  {{if user.Name != ""}} name=@user.Name, {{end}}
  {{if user.Email != ""}} email=@user.Email {{end}}
{{end}}
WHERE id=@id

-- Iteration
SELECT * FROM @@table
{{where}}
  {{for _, tag := range tags}}
    {{if tag != ""}} tags LIKE concat('%',@tag,'%') OR {{end}}
  {{end}}
{{end}}
