# GORM Writer
Generates Go source files with GORM model definitions from database schema information.
## Overview
The GORM Writer converts RelSpec's internal database model representation into Go source code with GORM struct definitions, complete with proper tags, relationships, and methods.
## Features
- Generates GORM-compatible Go structs
- Creates proper `gorm` struct tags
- Generates `TableName()` methods
- Adds relationship fields (belongs-to, has-many)
- Supports both single-file and multi-file output
- Auto-generates helper methods (optional)
- Maps SQL types to Go types
- Handles nullable fields with custom sql_types
## Usage
### Basic Example
```go
package main
import (
"git.warky.dev/wdevs/relspecgo/pkg/models"
"git.warky.dev/wdevs/relspecgo/pkg/writers"
"git.warky.dev/wdevs/relspecgo/pkg/writers/gorm"
)
func main() {
// Assume db is a *models.Database from a reader
options := &writers.WriterOptions{
OutputPath: "models.go",
PackageName: "models",
}
writer := gorm.NewWriter(options)
err := writer.WriteDatabase(db)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
}
```
### CLI Examples
```bash
# Generate GORM models from PostgreSQL database (single file)
relspec --input pgsql \
--conn "postgres://localhost/mydb" \
--output gorm \
--out-file models.go \
--package models
# Generate GORM models with multi-file output (one file per table)
relspec --input json \
--in-file schema.json \
--output gorm \
--out-file models/ \
--package models
# Convert DBML to GORM models
relspec --input dbml --in-file schema.dbml --output gorm --out-file models.go
```
## Output Modes
### Single File Mode
Generates all models in one file:
```bash
relspec --input pgsql --conn "..." --output gorm --out-file models.go
```
### Multi-File Mode
Generates one file per table (auto-detected when output is a directory):
```bash
relspec --input pgsql --conn "..." --output gorm --out-file models/
```
Files are named: `sql_{schema}_{table}.go`
## Generated Code Example
```go
package models
import (
"time"
sql_types "git.warky.dev/wdevs/sql_types"
)
type ModelUser struct {
ID int64 `gorm:"column:id;type:bigint;primaryKey;autoIncrement" json:"id"`
Username string `gorm:"column:username;type:varchar(50);not null;uniqueIndex" json:"username"`
Email string `gorm:"column:email;type:varchar(100);not null" json:"email"`
CreatedAt time.Time `gorm:"column:created_at;type:timestamp;not null;default:now()" json:"created_at"`
// Relationships
Pos []*ModelPost `gorm:"foreignKey:UserID;references:ID;constraint:OnDelete:CASCADE" json:"pos,omitempty"`
}
func (ModelUser) TableName() string {
return "public.users"
}
type ModelPost struct {
ID int64 `gorm:"column:id;type:bigint;primaryKey" json:"id"`
UserID int64 `gorm:"column:user_id;type:bigint;not null" json:"user_id"`
Title string `gorm:"column:title;type:varchar(200);not null" json:"title"`
Content sql_types.SqlString `gorm:"column:content;type:text" json:"content,omitempty"`
// Belongs to
Use *ModelUser `gorm:"foreignKey:UserID;references:ID" json:"use,omitempty"`
}
func (ModelPost) TableName() string {
return "public.posts"
}
```
## Writer Options
### Metadata Options
Configure the writer behavior using metadata in `WriterOptions`:
```go
options := &writers.WriterOptions{
OutputPath: "models.go",
PackageName: "models",
Metadata: map[string]interface{}{
"multi_file": true, // Enable multi-file mode
"populate_refs": true, // Populate RefDatabase/RefSchema
"generate_get_id_str": true, // Generate GetIDStr() methods
},
}
```
## Type Mapping
| SQL Type | Go Type | Notes |
|----------|---------|-------|
| bigint, int8 | int64 | - |
| integer, int, int4 | int | - |
| smallint, int2 | int16 | - |
| varchar, text | string | Not nullable |
| varchar, text (nullable) | sql_types.SqlString | Nullable |
| boolean, bool | bool | - |
| timestamp, timestamptz | time.Time | - |
| numeric, decimal | float64 | - |
| uuid | string | - |
| json, jsonb | string | - |
## Relationship Generation
The writer automatically generates relationship fields:
- **Belongs-to**: Generated for tables with foreign keys
- **Has-many**: Generated for tables referenced by foreign keys
- Relationship field names use 3-letter prefixes
- Includes proper `gorm` tags with `foreignKey` and `references`
## Notes
- Model names are prefixed with "Model" (e.g., `ModelUser`)
- Nullable columns use `sql_types.SqlString`, `sql_types.SqlInt64`, etc.
- Generated code is auto-formatted with `go fmt`
- JSON tags are automatically added
- Supports schema-qualified table names in `TableName()` method
