Clorinde generates type-checked Rust interfaces from PostgreSQL queries, with an emphasis on compile-time safety and high performance. It works by preparing your queries against an actual database and then running an extensive validation suite on them. Rust code is then generated into a separate crate, which can be imported and used in your project.

The basic premise is thus to:

1. Write your PostgreSQL queries.
2. Use Clorinde to generate a crate with type-safe interfaces to those queries.
3. Import and use the generated code in your project.

You can learn more about Clorinde by reading the [book](https://halcyonnouveau.github.io/clorinde/), or you can get a quickstart by looking at the [examples](https://halcyonnouveau.github.io/clorinde/examples.html).

> [!NOTE]
> Clorinde is a fork of [Cornucopia]https://github.com/cornucopia-rs/cornucopia which enhances the original with an improved architecture and expanded capabilities. Visit the [migration guide]https://halcyonnouveau.github.io/clorinde/introduction/migration_from_cornucopia.html if you are moving over an existing codebase with Cornucopia.

## Key Features

- **Type Safety** - Catch SQL errors at compile time and get catch errors before runtime with powerful diagnostics.
- **SQL-First** - Write plain SQL queries, get generated Rust code. No ORMs or query builders, just the SQL you know and love.
- **Fast** - Performance close to hand-written `rust-postgres` code.
- **Flexible** - Works with sync/async code and connection pools.
- **PostgreSQL Native** - Full support for custom types, enums, and arrays. Leverage PostgreSQL's advanced features without compromise.
- **Custom Types** - Map database types to your own Rust structs.

## Installation

Install with:

```bash
cargo install clorinde
```

## Quick Example
Write your PostgreSQL queries with annotations and named parameters:
```sql
-- queries/authors.sql

--! insert_author
INSERT INTO authors
    (first_name, last_name, country)
VALUES
    (:first_name, :last_name, :country);

--! authors
SELECT first_name, last_name, country FROM authors;
```

Generate the crate with `clorinde`, then you can import it into your project after adding it to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
clorinde = { path = "./clorinde" }
```

And use the generated crate in your code:
```rust
use clorinde::queries::authors::{authors, insert_author};

insert_author.bind(&client, "Agatha", "Christie", "England");

let all_authors = authors().bind(&client).all();

for author in all_authors {
  println!("[{}] {}, {}",
    author.country,
    author.last_name.to_uppercase(),
    author.first_name
  )
}
```
