In a recent project we went without an ORM. We took a tack similar to how PostgREST and PostGraphQL are structured. We use views in the public schema to build our objects. Functions constrain our mutations. Triggers respond to events and maintain consistency. It makes our web API code simple and hard to introduce errors that invalidate our customers’ data. Don’t miss having an ORM. Always seemed like more abstraction and complication than was necessary given recent advances in servers like Postgres.
