I use Gorm. This is the current code:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"gorm.io/driver/sqlite"
"gorm.io/gorm"
)
type Env struct {
DB *gorm.DB
Logger *log.Logger
}
type User struct {
ID uint
Username string
Name string
Email string
PasswordHash string
Country string //should probably be a foreign key of another table
}
func initDB() {
env := &Env{}
db, err := gorm.Open(sqlite.Open("gorm.db"), &gorm.Config{})
if err != nil {
fmt.Printf("Error opening database: %v", err)
return
}
env.DB = db
env.DB.AutoMigrate(&User{})
}
func main() {
initDB()
}
As you can see in the comment in the code, I assume the best way would be to have a table of countries and then assign each user to one via a foreign key. However, it seems a bit cumbersome to manually create a list of all countries. Is there a better way to do this?
Since 2018 they’re actually now The Republic of North Macedonia as per the Prespa Agreement between North Macedonia and the Hellenic Republic.
Which really goes to illustrate your point about politics and show you can’t rely on names to be permanent keys for joining anything.
