sqlite3 objects (SQObjects)

This package provides a method forwriting, reading and deleting go objects (structures) to and from SQLite databases. Not exactly a full "Object Relational Database" but a way to reduce the amount of boilerplate code and error handling need to keep a database in syncronization with objects.

This package is part of a wider project, github.com/mutablelogic/go-sqlite. Please see the module documentation for more information.

The general method is:

1. Use tags on your struct definition to define the database table, columns, indexes and foreign keys;
2. Create a database connection and register the structs you want to use to syncronize with the database. You also need to register foreign key relationships;
3. Create the tables and indexes in the database;
4. Read, write and delete objects using the Read, Write and Delete methods. You may need to use some hook functions to handle foreign key relationships.

For example, the following definition:

type Doc struct {
	A int    `sqlite:"a,autoincrement"`
	B int    `sqlite:"b,unique"`
	C string `sqlite:"c"`
}

Will create a table with the following statement:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS main.doc (
  a INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
  b INTEGER,
  c TEXT,
  UNIQUE (b)
)

A fuller explanation of the tags and supported types is provided below. SQObjects is currently in development.
