Go's been great for creating a web scraper. But it's been an unmitigated disaster for being able to write the data to a database due to the immaturity of ORMs.

Might as well not pretend something is an ORM if it can't do the fundamentals (like upserts), fully hydrating structs, etc.

Similar to doublerebel/publictransport, I ran into some issues hydrating structs the way I expected from other languages.

So I wrote bellows [0], a helper to flatten and expand nested maps and structs. Not quite the same but might help someone.
