- Docs
- Reference
- Examples
- RealWorld example app
- Use Discord or stackoverflow to ask questions.
Ecosystem
- pgext - faster JSON encoding, OpenTelemetry hook, etc.
- Migrations by vmihailenco and robinjoseph08.
- Sharding.
- Model generator from SQL tables.
- urlstruct to decode
url.Valuesinto structs.
Features
- Basic types: integers, floats, string, bool, time.Time, net.IP, net.IPNet.

- sql.Scanner and sql/driver.Valuer interfaces.
- Structs, maps and arrays are marshalled as JSON by default.
- PostgreSQL multidimensional Arrays using array tag and Array wrapper.
- Hstore using hstore tag and Hstore wrapper.
- Composite types.
- All struct fields are nullable by default and zero values (empty string, 0, zero time, empty map
or slice, nil ptr) are marshalled as SQL
NULL.pg:",notnull"is used to add SQLNOT NULLconstraint andpg:",use_zero"to allow Go zero values. - Transactions.
- Prepared statements.
- Notifications using
LISTENandNOTIFY. - Copying data using
COPY FROMandCOPY TO. - Timeouts and canceling queries using context.Context.
- Automatic connection pooling with circuit breaker support.
- Queries retry on network errors.
