design questions - Githubissues

Tricked-dev commented 1 year ago

After playing around with Surrealdb i started getting a couple of questions on why some things are done the way they are.

why does is the sql::Value being used for responses instead of a generic
why cant the datastore accept the session instead of having to input it every time

Suggestions

turn datastore.execute into a builder so you can specify strict and variables only when needed
use a different http library instead of surf (it uses 150 dependencies :exploding_head: ) or only use surf when in wasm otherwise isahc
use generics where possible instead of sql::Value
make Response::output not return a reference of the error

@Tricked-dev This issue belongs at https://github.com/surrealdb/surrealdb/issues. This repo is for the Rust client, not the database itself.

No it does not this affects the usage of the database inside a application, but I do agree that it would have probably gotten more attention if it were posted there. Feel free to move it.
