Ryx for Rust

Ryx is a Django-style ORM for Rust. Async-native, with zero Python dependencies.

use ryx_rs::{model, ObjectsManager};

#[model]
struct Post {
    #[field(pk)]
    id: i64,
    title: String,
    views: i64,
    active: bool,
}

let posts = ObjectsManager::<Post>::new()
    .filter("active", true)
    .order_by("-views")
    .all().await?;

Many older snippets use a convenience helper named Post::objects(). The macro does not need that helper; the canonical entry point is ObjectsManager::<Post>::new(). If you prefer the shorter style, define it once:

impl Post {
    fn objects() -> ObjectsManager<Self> {
        ObjectsManager::new()
    }
}

Quick Comparison

Feature	Python (ryx)	Rust (ryx-rs)
Model definition	Class + Fields	#[model] struct
QuerySet	Post.objects	ObjectsManager::<Post>::new() or a user-defined Post::objects() helper
Filtering	.filter(active=True)	.filter("active", true)
Q objects	Q(active=True) | Q(...)	Q::or(Q::new(...), ...)
Create	.create(title="...")	.create().set("title", "...").save()
Migrations	MigrationRunner([Post])	MigrationRunner::new().model::<Post>()
Relations	ForeignKey(Author)	#[relation(model = "Author", ...)]
CLI	python -m ryx migrate	ryx migrate
File-based migrations	.py files + Autodetector	.yaml files + Autodetector
Multi-DB routing	Meta.database + model=	#[database("alias")]
