ORM-independent schema / reflection
Reported by dan (at zeraweb) | 2008-07-06 21:06:01 UTC
Kind of a major ticket. Will need to be decomposed into smaller tickets eventually. DataMapper already provides a mechanism for reflection, but Sequel (last I checked) did not. I was looking at DrySQL to do this.
There is a lot of value in doing this: automatic migrations and smart views are two features that would benefit from this feature.
It might also be fine to just make this a wrapper around the ORMs that provide an ORM-independent reflection API.

I thought DataMapper made you declare everything, where Sequel reflects on attribute names, at the least.
Are we talking about association_reflection, which is what DrySQL appears to target?
