Traits to represent a database driver.
Support
Tier 1
Tier 1 support can be thought of as “guaranteed to work”. Automated testing is setup to ensure a high level of stability and functionality.
Database | Version | Driver |
---|---|---|
MariaDB | 10.1+ | mysql |
Microsoft SQL Server | 2019 | mssql |
MySQL | 5.6, 5.7, 8.0 | mysql |
PostgreSQL | 9.5+ | postgres |
SQLite | 3.20.1+ | sqlite |
Tier 2
Tier 2 support can be thought as “should work”. No specific automated testing is done, at this time, but there are efforts to ensure compatibility. Tier 2 support also includes database distributions that provide protocols that closely match a database from Tier 1.
No databases are in tier 2 at this time.
Any
Selecting a database driver is, by default, a compile-time decision. SQLx is designed this way to take full advantage of the performance and type safety made available by Rust.
We recognize that you may wish to make a runtime decision to decide the database driver. The
Any
driver is provided for that purpose.
Example
// connect to SQLite
let conn = AnyConnection::connect("sqlite://file.db").await?;
// connect to Postgres, no code change
// required, decided by the scheme of the URI
let conn = AnyConnection::connect("postgres://localhost/sqlx").await?;
Traits
- A database driver.
- A
Database
that maintains a client-side cache of prepared statements.
