How do I set up an ORM in TypeScript?

To set up an ORM in TypeScript, you can use TypeORM or Sequelize. Which one would you like to know more about?

Let's go with TypeORM.

Great choice! First, you need to install TypeORM and the database driver. You can do this using npm: npm install typeorm reflect-metadata.

What about the configuration?

You can create a ormconfig.json file to configure your database connection. It should include details like type, host, port, username, password, and database name.

Can you give me an example of the configuration?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

{
  "type": "postgres",
  "host": "localhost",
  "port": 5432,
  "username": "test",
  "password": "test",
  "database": "test",
  "synchronize": true,
  "logging": false
}
