Description

Is there any interest for an Elixir driver?

There are three approaches:

1. Binding elixir using the c api.

2. Use an odbc driver https://github.com/riverszhang89/cdb2odbc

3. Write a pure elixir driver.

Any suggestions?

Research direction

Start by comparing the three approaches named in the issue: binding Elixir through the C API, using the linked cdb2odbc ODBC driver, or writing a pure Elixir driver. The work is not ready to start until one approach and its implementation scope are agreed; done would be a working Elixir driver using that chosen path.
