Community Spotlight
New community integration: Aragog
The latest addition to our community integrations is aragog, which is:
A fully-featured ODM and OGM library for ArangoDB using the arangors driver.
The main concept is to provide behaviors allowing you to map your structs with ArangoDB documents as simply and lightly as possible. Inspired by Rails’ Active Record library, aragog also provides hooks and validations for your models. The crate also provides a powerful AQL querying tool allowing complex and safe ArangoDB queries in Rust.
Thank you to the Qonfucius team! You can get started using the library at https://aragog.rs/.
If you have an integration you would like to have highlighted here, please reach out to us and let us know at learn [at] arangodb [dot] com.
