pip install ORMagic[postgres]
- Configure the database by setting the
ORMAGIC_DATABASE_URLenvironment variable:ORMAGIC_DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:password@localhost/dbname
- Note: By default, ORMagic uses SQLite and requires no additional setup.

Refactoring
- Introduced the Factory Method design pattern for managing database clients.
This refactor improves code readability and scalability, enabling better support for multiple database backends.
Tests
- Added comprehensive PostgreSQL testing for all existing test cases to ensure compatibility and reliability.
Testing now covers both SQLite and PostgreSQL configurations.
This update brings significant improvements in database compatibility, internal code structure, and testing coverage, enabling developers to scale their applications with PostgreSQL. For any issues, refer to the documentation.
