DB Schema
Describe your data model in English. Get production-ready schema, migrations, and diagrams.
What It Does
Takes a plain English description of your data and generates:
Usage
From description:
db-schema "Users have many posts. Posts have many comments. Users can like posts."
With options:
db-schema "E-commerce with products, orders, customers" --dialect postgres --orm prisma
Options:
--dialect — postgres (default), mysql, sqlite, mongodb--orm — raw (default), prisma, drizzle, knex, sqlalchemy, typeorm--format — sql (default), json, markdown--diagram — include ERD diagram: mermaid (default), ascii, none--seed — generate seed data (default: false)--seed-count — rows per table for seed data (default: 10)Generation Rules
Schema Design:
1. Every table gets a primary key —id (BIGSERIAL for PG, AUTO_INCREMENT for MySQL, INTEGER AUTOINCREMENT for SQLite)
2. Timestamps by default — created_at and updated_at on every table
3. Foreign keys with proper naming — table_id references table(id)
4. ON DELETE behavior — CASCADE for owned relationships, SET NULL for optional
5. Proper types — use appropriate types (TEXT not VARCHAR(255) for PG, TIMESTAMPTZ not TIMESTAMP)Relationship Detection:
| English | Relationship | Implementation | |---------|-------------|---------------| | "has many" | One-to-Many | FK on the "many" side | | "belongs to" | Many-to-One | FK on current table | | "has one" | One-to-One | FK with UNIQUE constraint | | "many to many" | Many-to-Many | Junction table | | "can like/follow/tag" | Many-to-Many | Junction table with metadata |
Auto-Indexing:
| Pattern | Index Type | |---------|-----------| | Foreign keys | B-tree index | | Email, username | UNIQUE index | | Created/updated dates | B-tree index | | Status/type/role columns | B-tree index | | Full-text search fields | GIN index (PG) / FULLTEXT (MySQL) | | Slug/path columns | UNIQUE index | | Composite lookups | Composite index |
Type Mapping:
| Concept | PostgreSQL | MySQL | SQLite | |---------|-----------|-------|--------| | ID | BIGSERIAL | BIGINT AUTO_INCREMENT | INTEGER | | Short text | VARCHAR(N) | VARCHAR(N) | TEXT | | Long text | TEXT | TEXT | TEXT | | Money | NUMERIC(12,2) | DECIMAL(12,2) | REAL | | Boolean | BOOLEAN | TINYINT(1) | INTEGER | | Timestamp | TIMESTAMPTZ | DATETIME | TEXT | | JSON | JSONB | JSON | TEXT | | UUID | UUID | CHAR(36) | TEXT | | Enum | Custom TYPE | ENUM(...) | TEXT CHECK |
Output (SQL):

-- Description: E-commerce with products, orders, customersCREATE TABLE customers (

email VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL UNIQUE,
