It does seem a pity that Groovy only provides drivers of SQL statements when Groovy is a language superb for DSLs and builders.
Python is very similar to Groovy in this respect and Python has SQLAlchemy which provides the low level SQL driving stuff, but also provides an expression language, DSL and SQL builder, and also a full- on ORM. I tried to do something on a Groovy expression language for SQL from earlier work by various people at https://github.com/russel/GSQL but it seemed no one was at all interested and when I stopped having to worry about SQL databases on the JVM I stopped caring. It just seems a shame. If anyone working with SQL wants to progress this expression language stuff, I am happy to forward the repository to their ownership.
