How do I set up an SQL ORM in Go?

To set up an SQL ORM in Go, you can use libraries like GORM or sqlx. Which one would you like to know more about?

Let's go with GORM. What are the first steps?

First, you need to install GORM. You can do this by running go get -u gorm.io/gorm and go get -u gorm.io/driver/sqlite for SQLite support.

What do I do after installing it?

After installation, you can create a database connection using gorm.Open(). Would you like an example of how to do that?

Yes, please provide an example.

Here's a simple example:

import (
    "gorm.io/driver/sqlite"
    "gorm.io/gorm"
)

func main() {
    db, err := gorm.Open(sqlite.Open("test.db"), &gorm.Config{})
    if err != nil {
        panic("failed to connect to the database")
    }
}

This connects to a SQLite database named test.db.
