In this lesson, we'll learn how to alter our database tables using migrations both while in development, where we can delete our data, and once our data has already hit production where we need to persist all data.

In this lesson, we'll introduce both the database and model query builder. We'll learn the differences between the two and the basics of how to use them.

In this lesson, we'll walk through the basics of creating, reading, updating, and deleting (CRUD) data from our database using our Lucid Models.

Our database will have specific, non-changing, roles and movie statuses. In this lesson, we'll learn how we can quickly and easily create these records inside of our database using seeders.

In this lesson, we'll learn how we can quickly and easily bulk-create dummy/fake data within our database for each of our Lucid Models using Model Factories

In this lesson, we'll introduce models using the Lucid ORM. We'll learn how we can map database columns to our model properties and specify special behavior for our date time columns.

In this lesson, we'll walk through the process of defining all our database tables and columns as models and properties within our application.

In this lesson, we'll introduce database migrations. We'll learn what they are, why they're great to have, and how we can create and use them to define our database tables and their columns.

In this lesson, we'll learn about the various migration-based commands made available by the Ace CLI and how they interact with our migration files. We'll use these commands to run, rollback, and refresh our migrations against our database.

In this lesson, we'll walk through how to understand a database schema diagram. We'll then discuss the schema we'll be working with throughout this series; describing the tables, columns, data types, and relationships.

In this lesson, we'll learn how we can configure Lucid to use a different driver other than SQLite; PostgreSQL is shown but MySQL and MSSQL are much the same. Then, we'll set up our connection details so that we can successfully connect to our database.

In this lesson, we'll introduce the concept of models by using one to define the properties our movies should contain. We'll then stub some methods that will mock calls we'll later be able to use to load data from our database.

In this lesson, we'll take a look at the differences between the model and database query builders.

In this lesson, we'll walk through what mixins are and how they work by first inspecting them as plain objects then working our way into classes then finally TypeScript. We'll then implement mixins via AdonisJS' compose utility.

In this lesson, we'll take a look at the various options we have to limit results when using the query builder including first, firstOrFail, limit, and pagination. We'll also learn how we can sort our results.

In this lesson, we'll introduce the query builder. We'll spend most of our time looking at its various where statement options and how we can use them to build queries.

In this lesson, we’ll be taking a look at how we can log any and every user action performed against our AdonisJS models.

In this lesson, we'll expand on the filter query we built in the last lesson by reusing the query within a service for our filter form handler.

In this lesson, we'll create the route and query we'll need to get filtered results with our filter form using the Lucid ORM and AdonisJS.

In this lesson, I'll highlight a few of my favorite Model Query Builder Macros that I carry with me from project to project. Have a favorite of your own? Let me know in the comments!
