Hi Everyone, In this tutorial, we'll be creating a simple REST API that interfaces with a sqlite3 database using an ORM.

Hey - cool video! Just a small note - you should just be opening your database once in your program, not every single time a method gets called. Once you've connected to the database in the InitialMigration method, you can use the same global db reference in other methods. Put the single defer close call in the same method as your HTTP router so that the database remains open as long as the web server is running.

I've honestly been pretty "ORM is for people who can't be bothered to learn SQL" but damn is that a lot faster on projects where you don't need finely tuned SQL wizardry.

Definitely going to be investing some time into GORM. Great tut! Thanks.

Hey, just dropping in to say great job with this video! There are some things, as Rafael mentioned, but I totally understand why you wanted to be explicit and make things really simple. Kudos, and keep it up!

15:00: In order to see data in postman you can insert some dummy data like this one : " insert into users values(1, time('now'), null, null, "foo", "foo mail"), (2, time('now'), null, null, "bar", "bar mail");
"
after typing sqlite3 test.db

Great tutorial. But if you are using Windows you can't use 'go run *.go'. With Windows you should use 'go build && go-orm-tutorial.exe' (Change 'go-orm-tutorial' for your folder)

Things that I still confused: How do I organize Table Model, DAO, and other logic into separate .go files and directory? Is that possible? Thanks!

Hello, sorry it's maybe late.
But why do you declare a global Var err ?
Why dont keep it in local scope ?

How can I get the current schema from gorm? Normally it is "SHOW search_path" and is an exec. Same with setting the current search_path normally "set search_path to newschema"

Where did you define the SQLite table? I see the definition when is open the table in SQLite but didn't see where it was defined in this tutorial.

ORM = object relational mapper (nitpick: you said managers)
