README

pq - A pure Go postgres driver for Go's database/sql package (with hard-limit connection pooling support)

This is a fork of lib/pq with driver level connection pooling. The following additions have been implemented:

Max Connections

This limits the number of concurrent connections to the server.

environment variable: PGMAXCONS=10
connection string: maxcons=10

Persistence

This makes connections to the database persistent and never disconnect (unless a connection error arises). maxcons must be defined for this to work.

environment variable: PGPERSIST=true
connection string: persist=true

Use

If maxcons is defind, then you must tell database/sql not to do any pooling with db.SetMaxIdleConns(0) immediately after opening the database successfully. You must also make sure that you perform database Close() only once otherwise it'll hang the connection pool up (the pooling uses semaphores based on the Open() and Close()).

func main() {
	db, err := sql.Open("postgres", "user=pqgotest dbname=pqgotest sslmode=verify-full maxcons=10 persist=true")

	//...

	db.SetMaxIdleConns(0)

	//...
}

Build Status

Install

go get github.com/lib/pq

Docs

http://godoc.org/github.com/lib/pq

Use

package main

import (
	_ "github.com/lib/pq"
	"database/sql"
)

func main() {
	db, err := sql.Open("postgres", "user=pqgotest dbname=pqgotest sslmode=verify-full")
	// ...
}

Connection String Parameters

These are a subset of the libpq connection parameters. In addition, a number of the environment variables supported by libpq are also supported. Just like libpq, these have lower precedence than explicitly provided connection parameters.

See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/libpq-connect.html.

  • dbname - The name of the database to connect to
  • user - The user to sign in as
  • password - The user's password
  • host - The host to connect to. Values that start with / are for unix domain sockets. (default is localhost)
  • port - The port to bind to. (default is 5432)
  • sslmode - Whether or not to use SSL (default is require, this is not the default for libpq) Valid values are:
    • disable - No SSL
    • require - Always SSL (skip verification)
    • verify-full - Always SSL (require verification)

See http://golang.org/pkg/database/sql to learn how to use with pq through the database/sql package.

Tests

go test is used for testing. A running PostgreSQL server is required, with the ability to log in. The default database to connect to test with is "pqgotest," but it can be overridden using environment variables.

Example:

PGHOST=/var/run/postgresql go test pq

Features

  • SSL
  • Handles bad connections for database/sql
  • Scan time.Time correctly (i.e. timestamp[tz], time[tz], date)
  • Scan binary blobs correctly (i.e. bytea)
  • pq.ParseURL for converting urls to connection strings for sql.Open.
  • Many libpq compatible environment variables
  • Unix socket support

Future / Things you can help with

  • Notifications: LISTEN/NOTIFY
  • hstore sugar (i.e. handling hstore in rows.Scan)

Functions

func Open

func Open(name string) (_ driver.Conn, err error)

func ParseURL

func ParseURL(url string) (string, error)

ParseURL converts url to a connection string for driver.Open. Example:

"postgres://bob:secret@1.2.3.4:5432/mydb?sslmode=verify-full&maxcons=10&persist=true"

converts to:

"user=bob password=secret host=1.2.3.4 port=5432 dbname=mydb sslmode=verify-full maxcons=10 persist=true"

A minimal example:

"postgres://"

This will be blank, causing driver.Open to use all of the defaults

Types

type Error

type Error error

type NullTime

type NullTime struct {
	Time  time.Time
	Valid bool // Valid is true if Time is not NULL
}

func (*NullTime) Scan

func (nt *NullTime) Scan(value interface{}) error

Scan implements the Scanner interface.

func (NullTime) Value

func (nt NullTime) Value() (driver.Value, error)

Value implements the driver Valuer interface.

type PGError

type PGError interface {
	Error() string
	Fatal() bool
	Get(k byte) (v string)
}

type SimplePGError

type SimplePGError struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func (*SimplePGError) Error

func (err *SimplePGError) Error() string

func (*SimplePGError) Fatal

func (err *SimplePGError) Fatal() bool

func (*SimplePGError) Get

func (err *SimplePGError) Get(k byte) (v string)

type Values

type Values map[string]string
