Object Relational Mapping for front-ends.

What it solves？

Usually, the front-end will not process the data obtained from the back-end, but directly uses these plain objects. In large-scale applications, this can easily lead to extremely complex and messy relation processing code. Berry ORM allows you to access relation objects directly through attributes to avoid the boring relation-processing code.

Let's take an extreme example:

When using Berry ORM, you can directly access the relation objects through the attributes:

user.department.tasks.forEach((task) => {
  console.log(task.creator.username);
});

While when Berry ORM is not used, you must obtain the relation objects manually according the primary keys:

const userDepartment = departmentMap[user.department];
const departmentTasks = Object.values(taskMap).filter(
  (task) => task.department == userDepartment.id,
);
departmentTasks.forEach((task) => {
  const taskCreator = userMap[task.creator];
  console.log(taskCreator.username);
});

What it is not？

On the back-end, most ORM libraries are not only responsible for Object Relational Mapping, but also include a variety of additional functions such as wrapping database queries, optimization of SQL statements, and so on. But Berry ORM is only responsible for Object Relation mapping, it is only responsible for mapping the relations between objects.
