Add support for custom ORM's #1600
Comments
@miguel12345 I think the main blockers is the extended use of mongoose features (populate at least). Using something like waterline would be great imo. Similar discussion was had keystonejs/keystone#838 |
Hi @morenoh149 I can work on this in the next month or so. I talked with you about this in gitter (old username was TechRapport). I have been building a fullstack keystone app for the last 8 weeks, so have some good ideas here and I have some experience with waterline. |
as long as it makes sense with this vision https://youtu.be/of2VM3Wwkxk?t=27m17s |
Has any progress been made with integrating this? |
Yes. I started working on this. I am in the reverse engineering stage. I will update when I've made some progress! |
Any updates here @RyanCCollins? Can we help? |
Hey @mxstbr. Thanks for getting in touch. I have made a bit of progress, but keep getting pulled aside on other projects. I may have a few questions, specifically regarding the integration with Keystone lists when I get to that point. What's the best way to get in touch with you? Thanks! |
Either here directly or Twitter! |
Hey @mxstbr I want to apologize. The timing is just not going to be right for me to help out with this anytime soon. I am waste deep in it for a while, but if its still open when I get back, I would really love to contribute. Thanks! |
I was thinking about this when covering all bases and mulling over reasons I would not necessarily always recommend keystone to a client (I often do recommend it!). In the process of looking around I happened across this. No idea if it is any good or how stable it is but I thought I would link it here as food for thought if you are working on it. http://www.camintejs.com/ |
@RyanCCollins have you had a chance to make any progress on this? I'd like to help if there is a work-in-progress somewhere for this. It seems that a lot of the discussion has been around whether to switch ORMs, whereas instead I think I would prefer to try to just create a shim to minimize code change to the rest of the project. e.g. this file: https://github.com/keystonejs/keystone-demo/blob/master/models/Post.js instead of |
Keystone 4 is going in maintenance mode. Expect no major change. see #4913 for details. v5 has support for SQL databases by using Knex database adapter |
Hi,
I am currently using Sequelize as a ORM for my postgres database but I was looking for keystone for a great frontend tool to manage my data. The thing is that it seems to be completely locked in to mongo.
I know that you don't intend to support multiple backends, but is it doable (minutes/hours) to adapt keystone to a custom ORM? I know I would still need to provide data type mapping between sequelize and keystone but that would be easy. Apart from that, the ORM should only need to provide 5/6 methods (create/update/find/destroy etc), so, in theory, it shouldn't be too hard (also, mongoose/waterline/sequelize have similar interfaces), but what do you think? Has anyone managed to plug a custom ORM on keystone?
