# Jabol

Jabol is a lightweight schema and data persistence library for Elixir applications. It provides a simple API for defining schemas, managing database connections, and performing CRUD operations.

## Features

- Schema definition system with field types and validations
- Simple repository pattern for database operations
- Factory system for easy test data generation
- Minimal configuration with sensible defaults

## Installation

Add `jabol` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
  [
    {:jabol, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end
```

## Usage

### Configuration

Set up your database configuration in `config.exs`:

```elixir
config :jabol, Jabol.Repo,
  database: "your_database",
  hostname: "localhost",
  username: "postgres",
  password: "postgres"
```

### Defining Schemas

```elixir
defmodule MyApp.User do
  use Jabol.Schema
  
  schema "users" do
    field :name, :string
    field :email, :string
    field :age, :integer
    
    timestamps()
  end
end
```

### Database Operations

```elixir
# Insert a record
{:ok, user} = Jabol.Repo.insert(MyApp.User, %{name: "John", email: "john@example.com", age: 30})

# Get a record by ID
user = Jabol.Repo.get(MyApp.User, 1)

# Update a record
{:ok, updated_user} = Jabol.Repo.update(user, %{age: 31})

# Delete a record
{:ok, deleted_user} = Jabol.Repo.delete(user)
```

### Factory for Testing

```elixir
# Define defaults in your test helper
defmodule Jabol.Factory do
  def get_defaults(MyApp.User) do
    %{
      name: "Test User",
      email: "test@example.com",
      age: 25
    }
  end
end

# In your tests
test "user creation" do
  user = Jabol.Factory.build(MyApp.User, %{name: "Custom Name"})
  assert user.name == "Custom Name"
  assert user.email == "test@example.com"  # Default value
end
```
