GNORM




GNORM is Not an ORM.


## About

Gnorm converts your database's schema into in-memory data structures which you

can then feed into your own templates to produce code or documentation or

whatever. 

Gnorm is written in Go but can be used to generate any kind of textual output -

ruby, python, protobufs, html, javascript, etc.

Gnorm uses templates you control, so that you can make the output look exactly

how you want it to look.  It can be used to generate type-safe database queries

that are faster than a traditional ORM.  It can also be used to create a REST or

RPC API that exposes the data in your database.

## Documentation

[https://gnorm.org](https://gnorm.org)

## Installing

Gnorm has no dependencies, just download and run the executable for your

operating system.  See our [latest release](https://github.com/gnormal/gnorm/releases/latest).

## Building

__Note:__ Gnorm uses a go vanity url.  To install with go get, run 

```

go get gnorm.org/gnorm

```

However, using go get to install will mean that `gnorm version` doesn't report

the correct data, and `gnorm docs` won't show you the docs in your browser. 

For best results, use the [magefile](https://github.com/magefile/mage) in the

root of the repo, which will do all the build-time magic.  To run it, install

mage, then just run mage build.

```

$ go get github.com/magefile/mage

$ mage build

```

If you want to git clone instead (which should work fine since we vendor all

dependencies), make sure you git clone into `$GOPATH/src/gnorm.org/gnorm`.

## Discussion 

If you have questions about Gnorm or want to hack on it, meet the devs on the

`#gnorm` channel of [gopher slack](https://gophers.slack.com/).

There's also the `#gnorm-dev` channel which has github integrations showing the

work going on.
