Strongly agree to this. Rails developers for some reason just abandoning any work in database and tend to work with data in ruby env

Yep, I'm a big fan of building views in postgres and just hitting those with the ORM. I don't even use the join syntax in my ORM (Ecto) - if I need a join, I use a view.

Interesting. Does Ecto have any syntax that supports this behavior? Or do you just use raw SQL for this?

[cpursley]

You just treat a view the same way as a table with Ecto.
