Generics

Examples in V
struct Repo {
	db DB
}

fn new_repo(db DB) Repo {
	return Repo{db: db}
}

// This is a generic function. V will generate it for every type it's used with.
fn (r Repo) find_by_id(id int) ?T {
	table_name := T.name // in this example getting the name of the type gives us the table name
	return r.db.query_one('select * from $table_name where id = ?', id)
}

db := new_db()
users_repo := new_repo(db)
posts_repo := new_repo(db)
user := users_repo.find_by_id(1)?
post := posts_repo.find_by_id(1)?
