A lightweight wrapper around node-postgres that provides a simplified promise-based API for common PostgreSQL operations such as querying, inserts, updates, transactions, streaming, and schema management. Version 1.3.2 is the latest stable release; the project is in maintenance mode with infrequent updates. Key differentiators include automatic loading and caching of SQL files from a folder, support for multiple database connections via separate config paths, and explicit transaction helpers with isolation level control. Compared to raw pg or knex, it reduces boilerplate for CRUD and transactions but lacks active development or TypeScript support.
