Welcome to Exposed, an ORM framework for Kotlin. Exposed offers two levels of database access: typesafe SQL wrapping DSL and lightweight data access objects. Our official mascot is Cuttlefish, which is best known for its outstanding mimicry abilities letting it blend seamlessly in any environment. Just like our mascot, Exposed can mimic a variety of database engines and help you build database applications without hard dependencies on any specific database engine, and switch between them with very little or no changes in your code.
- H2
- MySQL
- MariaDB
- Oracle
- PostgreSQL
- PostgreSQL using the pgjdbc-ng JDBC driver
- SQL Server
- SQLite
Exposed is currently available for maven/gradle builds at Maven Central (read Getting started).
- Wiki with examples and docs.
- Roadmap to see what's coming next.
- Change log of improvements and bug fixes.
If you have any questions feel free to ask at our #exposed channel on kotlinlang.slack.com.
