postgres-neon-connection-and-migrations

What problem does it solve?

Standardizes Neon Postgres connections and migrations, eliminating configuration drift and serverless quirks by providing a centralized pattern for URL handling, engine/pool management, and migrations-driven schema evolution.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Centralized database configuration that reads DATABASE_URL from the environment for Neon.
• Reusable engine/pool management tailored for Neon serverless behavior.
• Migrations-first workflow using Alembic (or equivalent) with ORM metadata integration to evolve schema safely.
• Clear guidance for long-running servers and serverless/edge runtimes, with health checks and observability.

Quick Start

Create a central db config module that reads DATABASE_URL and wires Alembic with your ORM models.
