PgTyped Integrations
PgTyped's Features
- Automatically generates TS types for parameters/results of SQL queries of any complexity
- Supports extracting and typing queries from both SQL and TS files
- Generate query types as you write them, using watch mode
- Useful parameter interpolation helpers for arrays and objects
- No need to define your DB schema in TypeScript, your running DB is the live source of type data
- Prevents SQL injections by not doing explicit parameter substitution. Instead, queries and parameters are sent separately to the DB driver, allowing parameter substitution to be safely done by the PostgreSQL server
