Support for EdgeDB

Open mysticaltech opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Feature Description

It would be fantastic to support EdgeDB which is an extremely popular and powerful Graph DB built on Postgres.

Describe the solution you'd like

Unfortunately, using the current Postgres adapter would not work, the logic needs to be implemented in EdgeQL which is extremely similar to GraphQL but a lot more powerful. The system offers easy migrations to take advantage of, and the language is a lot easier than writing SQL. Also, there are no joins. On that front, it resembles the wonders of SurrealDB.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The alternative for me personally would be to use SurrealDB, which I hope will be supported by Authorizer soon. But EdgeDB is too good to not request here. As I am sure that a lot of people would love having support for it.

Additional context

There are a lot of DBs to support, but those are finite, and if Authorizer can at least build the initial versions, it would create a huge community around it and ensure its success!
