Hello, is there a way override basic Gorm settings in the global database connection scope, for example auto_preload feature?

Hello!

database.GetConnection() returns *gorm.DB, so you can use it in the same way as you normally would.

I think you were thinking about this kind of setting ?

database.GetConnection().Set("gorm:auto_preload", true)

You can make your configuration changes before starting the server:

func configureDatabase() {
    db := database.GetConnection()
    db.Set("gorm:auto_preload", true)
    // Other settings...
}

func main() {
    configureDatabase()
    goyave.Start(route.Register)
}

Be careful though, if the database.Close() method is called, your settings will be gone.

Maybe i can handle it in some kind of middleware, because of the database.Close() thing, thank you for your response!
