Lucid is a SQL object-relational mapper designed for applications built with AdonisJS. It uses the Active Record pattern and is built on top of Knex, combining model-based database access with a fluent SQL query builder.
The software includes tools for managing schemas, running migrations, seeding databases and generating model factories for testing. It supports multiple database connections and provides dedicated dialects for PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, LibSQL, Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Active Record ORM with TypeScript decorators for defining models and columns.
