I've recently worked a bit with rust. What's a bit of an issue with the compile time parsing of SurrealQL code is that you have to somehow feed the database schema to the compiler. In sqlx it is sometimes a bit annoying that initial builds fail when opening the project since the dev database the schema is fetched from is not yet running. Maybe one could directly fetch the database schema from a declarative schema definition file? In SQL it is not that simple since you have a huge list of migrations to parse, but maybe if you define the database schema with something like graphql types it could work...
Absolutely @peteole, and that’s where the GraphQL schema comes in. I like the idea of SQLX, but I don’t like the idea of having to connect to a remote service in order to compile the code fully. A schema declaration file should sit in your project, and enable the code to compile. This is a great idea!
