doobie is a pure functional JDBC layer for Scala and Cats. It is not an ORM, nor is it a relational algebra; it simply provides a functional way to construct programs (and higher-level libraries) that use JDBC. For common use cases doobie provides a minimal but expressive high-level API. doobie is a Typelevel project. This means we embrace pure, typeful, functional programming, and provide a safe and friendly environment for teaching, learning, and contributing as described in the Scala Code of Conduct. Note that doobie is pre-1.0 software and is still undergoing active development. New versions are not binary compatible with prior versions, although in most cases user code will be source compatible. Starting with the 0.5.x we’re trying to be a bit more careful about versioning. If you want to build and run the tests for yourself, you’ll need a local postgresql database.
