My language is ClickHouse :P
kelem•5mo ago
Hello, i'm not familiar with ClickHouse, but definitely something I will look at to see if it's possible to integrate dbcrust with :)
kelem•5mo ago
The new version contains a connector for clickhouse, you can try it. https://clement-tourriere.github.io/dbcrust/reference/url-sc...

> you can choose any database as long as that database is Postgres

Yikes!

tonyhart7•5mo ago
lol vibe coding AI slop smell
kelem•5mo ago
Thanks for your feedback. The project was only for postgres at the start si I guess it comes from that. I can't find where this sentence is in the code or the doc, could you tell me where did you see it. Thank you again, all the feedbacks are really important
otabdeveloper4•5mo ago
It's a joke referencing Henry Ford, don't worry about it.

Personally not going to use database tooling that's been built with AI. Just me
pageandrew•5mo ago
Not just you
kelem•5mo ago
I understand your point of view. I'm using it almost every day and try my best to tackle all the possible bugs. This tool is very versatile and I really believe that it can help during development, for instance with your docker db container. That is also why all feedbacks are really important.

Wow Nice, I will have a look, thanks for sharing
jgb1984•5mo ago
No way an AI built tool is getting anywhere near my database.
viraptor•5mo ago
Why? I mean, the personal preference is all fine, but if you post about it publicly - what are the specific reasons? (Especially compared to a tool written by a person who's experience and credentials you'd most likely not check otherwise)
sshine•5mo ago
I feel the same way about code written with Emacs.

People tell me I’m paranoid.

But soon enough that code is going to morph into Common Lisp, and before you know it, we’re living in a commune drinking caffeine-free matcha.

(Also, I don’t mean any of this.)

mukeshsahnis•5mo ago
Seems very interesting going to explore it.

It would be great to have Convex Database support
kelem•5mo ago
I played around with Convex and tried an integration with dbcrust, but it feels quite different from conventional databases. I really like the idea of moving business logic as close as possible to the database, but I can’t see a natural way to integrate it — it feels a bit forced. I read this article: https://stack.convex.dev/translate-sql-into-convex-queries , but it suggests that dbcrust would need to deploy tasks to a Convex instance. I’m not sure that’s the best approach, and I don’t see any clear alternative. I’d be very glad to hear any suggestions on this. I’d love to integrate Convex into dbcrust since convex is such a great product.
