CLI

The CLI exposes two main commands: schema and live.

Generating code

The code generation can be made either against a database that you manage or by letting Cornucopia manage an ephemeral database container for you.

schema: Automatic container management

The cornucopia schema command creates a new container, loads your schema(s), generates your queries and cleanups the container. You will need to provide the path to one or more schema files to build your queries against.

live: Manual database management

If you want to manage the database yourself, use the cornucopia live command to connect to an arbitrary live database. You will need to provide the connection URL.

Useful flags

sync

By default, Cornucopia will generate asynchronous code, but it can also generate synchronous code using the --sync flag.

serialize

If you need to serialize the rows returned by your queries, you can use the --serialize flag, which will derive Serialize on your row types.

podman

You can use podman as a container manager by passing the -p or --podman flag.
