	Zig relational mapper
</p>

ZRM is part of [_zedd_](https://code.zeptotech.net/zedd), a collection of useful libraries for zig.

## ZRM

_ZRM_ provides a simple interface to relational databases in Zig. Define your repositories and easily write queries to retrieve and save complex Zig structures.

## Versions

ZRM 0.1.1 is made and tested with zig 0.13.0.

## Work in progress

ZRM aims to handle a lot for you, but it takes time to make. Have a look to [the issues](https://code.zeptotech.net/zedd/zrm/issues) to see what is currently planned or being worked on.

## How to use

### Install

In your project directory:

```shell
$ zig fetch --save https://code.zeptotech.net/zedd/zrm/archive/v0.1.1.tar.gz
```

In `build.zig`:

```zig
// Add zrm dependency.
const zrm = b.dependency("zrm", .{
	.target = target,
	.optimize = optimize,
});
exe.root_module.addImport("zrm", zrm.module("zrm"));
```
