  -fieldSignable
        detect integer field's unsigned type, adjust generated data type

c

Configuration file name, default value "", command line options have higher priority than configuration file.

db

Specify dirver dialector, default value "mysql", refer: https://gorm.io/docs/connecting_to_the_database.html

dsn

DSN that used to connect database, refer: https://gorm.io/docs/connecting_to_the_database.html

fieldNullable

Generate with pointer when field is nullable

fieldWithIndexTag

Generate field with gorm index tag

fieldWithTypeTag

Generate field with gorm column type tag

modelPkgName

Generated model code's package name.

outFile

Genrated query code file name, default: gen.go

outPath

Specify a directory for output (default "./dao/query")

tables

Specify tables want to genrated from, default all tables.

eg :

--tables="orders"       # generate from `orders`

--tables="orders,users" # generate from `orders` and `users`

--tables=""             # generate from all tables

Generate some tables code.

withUnitTest

Generate unit test, default value false, options: false / true

fieldSignable

Use signable datatype as field type, default value false, options: false / true

Example

gentool -dsn "user:pwd@tcp(localhost:3306)/database?charset=utf8mb4&parseTime=True&loc=Local" -tables "orders,doctor"

gentool -c "./gen.tool"

version: "0.1"
database:
  # consult[https://gorm.io/docs/connecting_to_the_database.html]"
  dsn : "username:password@tcp(address:port)/db?charset=utf8mb4&parseTime=true&loc=Local"
  # input mysql or postgres or sqlite or sqlserver. consult[https://gorm.io/docs/connecting_to_the_database.html]
  db  : "mysql"
  # enter the required data table or leave it blank.You can input : orders,users,goods
  tables  : "user"
  # specify a directory for output
  outPath :  "./dao/query"
  # query code file name, default: gen.go
  outFile :  ""
  # generate unit test for query code
  withUnitTest  : false
  # generated model code's package name
  modelPkgName  : ""
  # generate with pointer when field is nullable
  fieldNullable : false
  # generate field with gorm index tag
  fieldWithIndexTag : false
  # generate field with gorm column type tag
  fieldWithTypeTag  : false
