Cafe, HaskellDB takes a database schema and produces Haskell data structures (plus some other query-related stuff for its EDSL query language).
What I'm looking for is the inverse of this functionality. I want to create tables based on a Haskell data structure with a few simple rules. These rules include: if a field is not of the form `Maybe a' then it can't be nullable in the database. If a field is not a primitive (in the database) then it is actually stored in another table and a reference id is stored in the table. Tables are produced recursively, unless they already exist, etc. The HaskellDB approach is great for interfacing with existing tables, but in my case I already have data structures and now I would like a quick way to create tables to persist them. Does such a thing exist? If not, would you find it useful? I may take this up as a side project if it does not already exist and others would find it useful.
