commit 23993d2a7c

@ -89,3 +89,27 @@ The root Query and Mutation objects live in `_root.gql`
The rest of the files contain domain specific declarations. For instance the Mutations
for interacting with tasks is in the `task.gql` file.
### Database Access
Taskcafe uses `sqlc` (with `sqlx` for things that `sqlc` can not handle which hasn't been much so far) to handle database interactions.
`internal/db` exports a `New` method that takes in a `sqlx.DB` connection and returns a `Repository`.
The `Repository` contains all the methods generated by `sqlc` from the `internal/db/query` SQL files.
If you have the below query in one of the SQL files:
``` sql
-- name: GetProjects :many
SELECT * FROM project;
```
Then the method can be accessed from the `Repository` like so:
```
projects, err := repository.GetProjects(ctx)
```
For more info on the `sqlc` query file format, take at look at [its documentation](https://sqlc.dev/).
