Релиз Diesel 2.3.0


Diesel — это безопасный, высокопроизводительный и расширяемый ORM и генератор SQL-запросов для языка Rust. Diesel гарантирует корректность генерируемых SQL-запросов и совместимость между типами, используемыми в коде приложения, и типами в БД. Код, который сгенерировал бы падающий запрос, попросту не скомпилируется. При этом, Diesel является zero-cost абстракцией: производительность кода, использующего Diesel такая же, как производительность кода на C, напрямую вызывающего SQL-запросы.
