gorm-iris

GORM dialect for InterSystems IRIS built on top of go-irisnative.

Status: alpha. APIs may change. Feedback and PRs welcome.

Installation

go get github.com/caretdev/gorm-iris

DSN format

The DSN is the same as for go-irisnative:

iris://user:password@host:1972/Namespace

Example:

export IRIS_DSN='iris://_SYSTEM:SYS@localhost:1972/USER'

Quick start

package main
import (

"fmt"

"gorm.io/gorm"

iris "github.com/caretdev/gorm-iris" // import dialect

)
type Person struct {

ID   int    gorm:"primaryKey"

Name string

}
func main() {

dsn := "iris://_SYSTEM:SYS@localhost:1972/USER"

db, err := gorm.Open(iris.Open(dsn), &gorm.Config{})

if err != nil { panic(err) }
// Auto-migrate schema
db.AutoMigrate(&Person{})

// Insert
db.Create(&Person{ID: 1, Name: "Alice"})

// Query
var p Person
db.First(&p, 1)
fmt.Println("Found:", p)

// Update
db.Model(&p).Update("Name", "Alice Updated")

// Delete
db.Delete(&p)

}
