Typeorm naming strategy
This package provides a few (one, at the moment) useful custom naming strategies. It alliterates the name of columns, relations, and other fields in the database.
For example, using the snake strategy, if you have a model like this:
class User {
@Column()
createdAt
}In the DB the createdAt field will be created_at
