I Made New Golang Database Migration Tool
Hello HN, I've just released a new migration tool for Go that mimics the functionality of Ruby on Rails migrations. It's designed to help Go developers manage database schema changes with ease. This allows you several benefits: - Write type-safe migrations - Auto down of migrations whenever it's possible - Easy backfill even with business logic because it's Go code - Painless integration with existing schema - sql.DB compatible and driver agnostic (it uses your driver) I have a pretty complete API to manage Postgres schema and I am working on the SQLite one (a little more complicated due to…

GoSMig – minimal, type-safe SQL migrations written in Go2025 · github.com · ▲7I built GoSMig for my own projects and open-sourced it in case it helps others. It’s a tiny generic library (no external deps except golang.org/x/term) for writing SQL migrations in Go with compile-time checks. It supports transactional and non-transactional migrations, rollback, status, version, and a small CLI handler so you can ship your own migration binary. Why another migrator? - Minimal API, no DSL or file layout to learn - Type-safe via Go generics - Works with database/sql and sqlx out of the box - Should work with any db library (or wrapper) that implements some…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
