Designing a Fluent Query DSL
Build a chainable, self-validating query API.
Designing a Fluent Query DSL
We design a chainable query DSL where each step refines the allowed next steps via return types. The result reads like SQL and rejects invalid orderings at compile time.
The Target Grammar
We want: from then optional where (repeatable) then a terminal select. You cannot select before from, and you cannot from twice.
