A database toolkit built on Riot

Quick Start | Documentation | Examples |   

DBCaml is a async database toolkit built on Riot, an actor-model multi-core scheduler for OCaml 5. DBCaml is inspired by Elixirs where the developer can spin up a connection manager and connections the manager takes cares of.

** Note: DBCaml is currently in development and is not ready for production. Only for testing purposes **

let driver =
    Dbcaml_driver_postgres.connection
      "postgresql://postgres:mysecretpassword@localhost:6432/development"
  in

  let pool_id = Dbcaml.start_link ~connections:10 driver |> Result.get_ok in

  (* Fetch 1 row from the database *)
  (match
     Dbcaml.fetch_one
       pool_id
       ~params:[Dbcaml.Param.String "1"]
       "select * from users where id = $1"
   with
  | Ok x ->
    let rows = Dbcaml.Row.row_to_type x in
    (* Iterate over each column and print it's values *)
    List.iter (fun x -> print_endline x) rows
  | Error x -> print_endline (Dbcaml.Res.execution_error_to_string x));

DBCaml aims to offer:

• Database pooling. Built with using Riots lightweight process to spin up a connection pool.

• Database Agnostic. Support for Postgres, and more to come(MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite)

• Built in security. With built in security allows users to focus on writing queries and don't be afraid of security breaches.

• Cross Platform. DBCaml compiles anywhere

• Not an ORM. DBCaml is not an orm, it simple handle the boring stuff you don't want to deal with and allow you to have full insight on what's going on.
