Postmodern

Postmodern is a Common Lisp library for interacting with PostgreSQL databases. Features are:

• Efficient communication with the database server without need for foreign libraries.
• Support for UTF-8 on Unicode-aware Lisp implementations
• A lispy syntax for expressing SQL queries
• Convenient support for prepared statements and stored procedures
• Defclass-like definition of tables and associated accessor classes

The biggest differences between this library and CLSQL/CommonSQL are that postmodern has no intention of being portable across different SQL implementations (it embraces non-standard Postgres features), and approaches extensions like lispy SQL and database access objects in a quite different way. This library was written because the CLSQL approach did not really work for me, your mileage may vary.
