Ask HN: Is there an ORM as good as SQLAlchemy for TypeScript yet?

4 pointsby rattray6 ปีที่แล้ว5 comments

I've seen TypeORM, slonik, sequelize-typescript. TypeORM seems the most widely used, but looks a little Java-like and has over 1800 open issues. SQLAlchemy has a tenth as many.

Has anyone used a SQL library with TS and found it to be highly robust, powerful, ergonomic, and well-typed?

ORMs are something the Node community has never figured out, even almost ten years later.

I have come across several but used none (not really a Node developer so no reason to try any). Are they all just not up to snuff or something?

This is true for Go ecosystem too.

Unfortunately, no. TypeORM is as good as it gets in Nodejs ecosystem. Also if you choose it, read this pinned issue first: https://github.com/typeorm/typeorm/issues/3267
