PGSuite - toolkit for creating simple WEB applications on "client-server" architecture (HTML/JavaScript и PostgreSQL) without backend
General idea: computing resources are redundant for simple projects, it is possible to abandon the backend part of application
Basic principle: Only PostgreSQL, only hardcore !
- No middleware, HTML/JavaScript interacts with database directly through ORM, stored procedures and SQL queries
- Logic is implemented using PostgreSQL DBMS
- User access is determined by restrictions in the database based on access policy
- Full logging of all changes with the ability to view them
- Reports are created in a database and transmitted in binary form (bytea) to a web browser
- WEB pages are templated using SQL
| PGORM | - | PGORM allows to connect to PostgreSQL from web pages, execute SQL queries, use ORM and receive files |
| PGHtml | - | PGHtml is command line utility that creates HTML, JS, JSON and other types of files using data retrieved from PostgreSQL database |
| PGXLS | - | PGXLS is SQL schema with procedures for create file in Excel format (.xlsx), has 2 modes: export by SQL query and report builder |
| PGHist | - | PGHIST keeps history of table changes and allows to get log(audit) of changes by row, list of changes by fields and table as of date-time in the past (versioning) |
Source code is posted in GitHub repositories: PGORM, PGHtml, PGXLS, PGHist
