[Showcase] GoTool: A zero-config online tool to convert SQL into GORM structs

[xuesongtao]

Hi GORM community!

I've developed a web-based toolset called GoTool to help me speed up my daily Go development, and I'd like to share it with you all.

One of its core features is the SQL to GORM converter, which I think could be very useful for GORM users.

Key Features for GORM:

• Multi-dialect Support: Supports converting SQL from MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle into GORM models.
• Automatic Comment Parsing: It automatically parses SQL field comments and converts them into doc comments or tags in Go.
• Custom Tag Injection: You can easily inject additional tags like json, xorm, or custom validation tags while generating.
• Smart Type Mapping: Handles complex database types and maps them to appropriate Go types (including time.Time, null types, etc.).
• Zero Configuration: No need to install CLI tools, just paste your SQL and get the struct instantly.

Why I built this:

While there are many CLI generators, I often find myself needing a quick way to convert a snippet of DDL into a struct without setting up environment or config files.

I’d love to hear your feedback or suggestions for new features!
