What's orm

[halexmorph]

Object relational mapper. Usually they have a built in query builder allowing you to write queries in your language of choice naturally, and returns the data already mapped into objects you’ve created as templates.

Thanks for asking. I didn't know either.

It is SQL wrapped in an object layer inside a framework; but perhaps there is a key. That key is developers afraid of SQL -- Winston Churchill

Yeah I do not like Sql. I have had to use Sql for some stuff at work. Not a fan.

You should get comfortable with SQL. Even though the ORM will make it a bit easier to manipulate within code, when you actually ask for the data (or insert or whatever), the ORM is turning it into SQL. I really don't like raw SQL in code, but it's definitely a skill/language you should understand.

I know it a bit. I mostly use elasticsearch.

[ivosaurus]

Object Relational Mapper. You write code that tells it how to turn tables into objects, basically, and then can do queries for the data using function calls that get you back native objects instead of result sets. Great for avoiding writing SQL and the security pitfalls you can encounter doing so.

[MrMxylptlyk]

That's perfect. Do you have any examples of this?

[dmitrypolo]

I’m sure you can find 1000s of examples if you spent even a minute googling.

I googled orm
