Hi Sander Elias, and thanks for your swift response and the info.
That sounds kind of worrisome to be honest. I started out using https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-mssql at the beginning of my project which was no good due to some other issue (I was told that the server specs were too weak to be able to run the SQL query for each user request - which is part of that library setup - in the far future as the statistical data would increase exponentially in the years to come and hundreds of users potentially would access the system simultaneously) and had to find an alternative which turned out to be typeorm. Considering your input and this new information on the limits within the CLI I'd say, that it looks like as if I have to repeat the process all over again which is frustrating at best. But I guess it's part of the learning process and there's nothing really I can do about it now. However, I'd like to 'damage-control' this as much as possible in order to minimize waste of time and efforts. So if you don't mind, could you post here about your way of doing things in a more detailed and elaborate way? For instance is there a good tutorial on this? Do you have your own way of doing things? If so, how would I proceed? What are the steps? You were mentioning something about *swagger *which I am unfamiliar with. Are we talking about this particular library here https://www.npmjs.com/package/swagger as I found multiple libraries containing that name. I had a quick look at the documentation and am wondering about a couple of things. Does this library work with the Angular CLI? Would/could I run it from within the Angular 7 project as in does it have to be included into it? Is there compatibility? Need for packaging/bundling and importing it afterwards into the same in order to make things work? To answer your question about paid support. Unfortunately, I am doing an unpaid internship in the public sector at the moment and there is no budget here either. That means that it's essentially me and the internet which makes this all the more frustrating. As a note on the side..., the person writing this blog https://hackernoon.com/from-typeorm-to-loopback-a-retrospective-188ea18527a2 that I linked to in my initial post mentioned *LoopBack* as an alternative library to work with Angular (I am pretty sure his Angular version was prior to Angular 7 but nevertheless). Do you or has anybody else insight into or experience with this particular solution? Looking forward to your response. Thanks again for the heads up. torsdag den 13. december 2018 kl. 18.04.17 UTC+1 skrev Sander Elias: > > Hi Di, > > I just checked out typeOrm.
