When I read the title my brain immediately jumped to a slightly different idea. With olap, I often find it annoying to figure out the joins from the fk/pk relationships, so I was imagining a tool that kind of automatically followed the links for you. A bit like how a orm gives you auto complete, but without the user having to manually enter the schema.

And I wanted it to emit the raw SQL because that's generally what I want for olap.

So I had to go at building it. If anyone's interested a very rough demo/prototype is here: https://www.robinlinacre.com/vite_live_pg_orm/

Load in the demo Northwind schema and click some tables/columns to see the generated joins

I like how it joins the inner tables to get to your desired table. Going from employees to products is a walk.
