Overview ¶
Package pgconn is a low-level PostgreSQL database driver.
pgconn provides lower level access to a PostgreSQL connection than a database/sql or pgx connection. It operates at nearly the same level is the C library libpq.
Establishing a Connection ¶
Use Connect to establish a connection. It accepts a connection string in URL or DSN and will read the environment for libpq style environment variables.
Executing a Query ¶
ExecParams and ExecPrepared execute a single query. They return readers that iterate over each row. The Read method reads all rows into memory.
Executing Multiple Queries in a Single Round Trip ¶
Exec and ExecBatch can execute multiple queries in a single round trip. They return readers that iterate over each query result. The ReadAll method reads all query results into memory.
Context Support ¶
All potentially blocking operations take a context.Context. If a context is canceled while the method is in progress the method immediately returns. In most circumstances, this will close the underlying connection.
The CancelRequest method may be used to request the PostgreSQL server cancel an in-progress query without forcing the client to abort.
Example ¶
package main import ( "context" "fmt" "log" "os" "github.com/zainkabani/pgconn" ) func main() { pgConn, err := pgconn.Connect(context.Background(), os.Getenv("PGX_TEST_CONN_STRING")) if err != nil { log.Fatalln(err) } defer pgConn.Close(context.Background()) result := pgConn.ExecParams(context.Background(), "select generate_series(1,3)", nil, nil, nil, nil).Read() if result.Err != nil { log.Fatalln(result.Err) } for _, row := range result.Rows { fmt.Println(string(row[0])) } fmt.Println(result.CommandTag) }
Output: 1 2 3 SELECT 3

func ValidateConnectTargetSessionAttrsReadWrite ¶
ValidateConnectTargetSessionAttrsReadWrite is an ValidateConnectFunc that implements libpq compatible target_session_attrs=read-write.
Types ¶
type Batch ¶
type Batch struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Batch is a collection of queries that can be sent to the PostgreSQL server in a single round-trip.
type BuildFrontendFunc ¶
BuildFrontendFunc is a function that can be used to create Frontend implementation for connection.
type CommandTag ¶
type CommandTag []byte
CommandTag is the result of an Exec function
func (CommandTag) Delete ¶
func (ct CommandTag) Delete() bool
Delete is true if the command tag starts with "DELETE".
func (CommandTag) Insert ¶
func (ct CommandTag) Insert() bool
Insert is true if the command tag starts with "INSERT".
func (CommandTag) RowsAffected ¶
func (ct CommandTag) RowsAffected() int64
RowsAffected returns the number of rows affected. If the CommandTag was not for a row affecting command (e.g. "CREATE TABLE") then it returns 0.
func (CommandTag) Select ¶
func (ct CommandTag) Select() bool
Select is true if the command tag starts with "SELECT".
func (CommandTag) String ¶
func (ct CommandTag) String() string
func (CommandTag) Update ¶
func (ct CommandTag) Update() bool
Update is true if the command tag starts with "UPDATE".
type Config ¶
type Config struct { Host string // host (e.g. localhost) or absolute path to unix domain socket directory (e.g. /private/tmp) Port uint16 Database string User string Password string TLSConfig *tls.Config // nil disables TLS ConnectTimeout time.Duration DialFunc DialFunc // e.g. net.Dialer.DialContext LookupFunc LookupFunc // e.g. net.Resolver.LookupHost BuildFrontend BuildFrontendFunc RuntimeParams map[string]string // Run-time parameters to set on connection as session default values (e.g. search_path or application_name) Fallbacks []*FallbackConfig // ValidateConnect is called during a connection attempt after a successful authentication with the PostgreSQL server. // It can be used to validate that the server is acceptable. If this returns an error the connection is closed and the next // fallback config is tried. This allows implementing high availability behavior such as libpq does with target_session_attrs. ValidateConnect ValidateConnectFunc // AfterConnect is called after ValidateConnect. It can be used to set up the connection (e.g. Set session variables // or prepare statements). If this returns an error the connection attempt fails. AfterConnect AfterConnectFunc // OnNotice is a callback function called when a notice response is received. OnNotice NoticeHandler // OnNotification is a callback function called when a notification from the LISTEN/NOTIFY system is received. OnNotification NotificationHandler // contains filtered or unexported fields }
Config is the settings used to establish a connection to a PostgreSQL server. It must be created by ParseConfig. A manually initialized Config will cause ConnectConfig to panic.
func ParseConfig ¶
ParseConfig builds a *Config with similar behavior to the PostgreSQL standard C library libpq. It uses the same defaults as libpq (e.g. port=5432) and understands most PG* environment variables. ParseConfig closely matches the parsing behavior of libpq. connString may either be in URL format or keyword = value format (DSN style). See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-CONNSTRING for details. connString also may be empty to only read from the environment. If a password is not supplied it will attempt to read the .pgpass file.
# Example DSN user=jack password=secret host=pg.example.com port=5432 dbname=mydb sslmode=verify-ca # Example URL postgres://jack:secret@pg.example.com:5432/mydb?sslmode=verify-ca
The returned *Config may be modified. However, it is strongly recommended that any configuration that can be done through the connection string be done there. In particular the fields Host, Port, TLSConfig, and Fallbacks can be interdependent (e.g. TLSConfig needs knowledge of the host to validate the server certificate). These fields should not be modified individually. They should all be modified or all left unchanged.
ParseConfig supports specifying multiple hosts in similar manner to libpq. Host and port may include comma separated values that will be tried in order. This can be used as part of a high availability system. See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-MULTIPLE-HOSTS for more information.
# Example URL postgres://jack:secret@foo.example.com:5432,bar.example.com:5432/mydb
ParseConfig currently recognizes the following environment variable and their parameter key word equivalents passed via database URL or DSN:
PGHOST PGPORT PGDATABASE PGUSER PGPASSWORD PGPASSFILE PGSERVICE PGSERVICEFILE PGSSLMODE PGSSLCERT PGSSLKEY PGSSLROOTCERT PGAPPNAME PGCONNECT_TIMEOUT PGTARGETSESSIONATTRS
See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/static/libpq-envars.html for details on the meaning of environment variables.
See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-PARAMKEYWORDS for parameter key word names. They are usually but not always the environment variable name downcased and without the "PG" prefix.
Important Security Notes:
ParseConfig tries to match libpq behavior with regard to PGSSLMODE. This includes defaulting to "prefer" behavior if not set.
See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/static/libpq-ssl.html#LIBPQ-SSL-PROTECTION for details on what level of security each sslmode provides.
The sslmode "prefer" (the default), sslmode "allow", and multiple hosts are implemented via the Fallbacks field of the Config struct. If TLSConfig is manually changed it will not affect the fallbacks. For example, in the case of sslmode "prefer" this means it will first try the main Config settings which use TLS, then it will try the fallback which does not use TLS. This can lead to an unexpected unencrypted connection if the main TLS config is manually changed later but the unencrypted fallback is present. Ensure there are no stale fallbacks when manually setting TLCConfig.
Other known differences with libpq:
When multiple hosts are specified, libpq allows them to have different passwords set via the .pgpass file. pgconn does not.
In addition, ParseConfig accepts the following options:
min_read_buffer_size The minimum size of the internal read buffer. Default 8192. servicefile libpq only reads servicefile from the PGSERVICEFILE environment variable. ParseConfig accepts servicefile as a part of the connection string.
type FallbackConfig ¶
type FallbackConfig struct { Host string // host (e.g. localhost) or path to unix domain socket directory (e.g. /private/tmp) Port uint16 TLSConfig *tls.Config // nil disables TLS }
FallbackConfig is additional settings to attempt a connection with when the primary Config fails to establish a network connection. It is used for TLS fallback such as sslmode=prefer and high availability (HA) connections.
type Frontend ¶
type Frontend interface {
Receive() (pgproto3.BackendMessage, error)
}
Frontend used to receive messages from backend.
type HijackedConn ¶
type HijackedConn struct { Conn net.Conn // the underlying TCP or unix domain socket connection PID uint32 // backend pid SecretKey uint32 // key to use to send a cancel query message to the server ParameterStatuses map[string]string // parameters that have been reported by the server TxStatus byte Frontend Frontend Config *Config }
HijackedConn is the result of hijacking a connection.
Due to the necessary exposure of internal implementation details, it is not covered by the semantic versioning compatibility.
type LookupFunc ¶
LookupFunc is a function that can be used to lookup IPs addrs from host. Optionally an ip:port combination can be returned in order to override the connection string's port.
type MultiResultReader ¶
type MultiResultReader struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
MultiResultReader is a reader for a command that could return multiple results such as Exec or ExecBatch.
func (*MultiResultReader) Close ¶
func (mrr *MultiResultReader) Close() error
Close closes the MultiResultReader and returns the first error that occurred during the MultiResultReader's use.
func (*MultiResultReader) NextResult ¶
func (mrr *MultiResultReader) NextResult() bool
NextResult returns advances the MultiResultReader to the next result and returns true if a result is available.
func (*MultiResultReader) ReadAll ¶
func (mrr *MultiResultReader) ReadAll() ([]*Result, error)
ReadAll reads all available results. Calling ReadAll is mutually exclusive with all other MultiResultReader methods.
func (*MultiResultReader) ResultReader ¶
func (mrr *MultiResultReader) ResultReader() *ResultReader
ResultReader returns the current ResultReader.
type Notice ¶
type Notice PgError
Notice represents a notice response message reported by the PostgreSQL server. Be aware that this is distinct from LISTEN/NOTIFY notification.
type NoticeHandler ¶
NoticeHandler is a function that can handle notices received from the PostgreSQL server. Notices can be received at any time, usually during handling of a query response. The *PgConn is provided so the handler is aware of the origin of the notice, but it must not invoke any query method. Be aware that this is distinct from LISTEN/NOTIFY notification.
type Notification ¶
type Notification struct { PID uint32 // backend pid that sent the notification Channel string // channel from which notification was received Payload string }
Notification is a message received from the PostgreSQL LISTEN/NOTIFY system
type NotificationHandler ¶
type NotificationHandler func(*PgConn, *Notification)
NotificationHandler is a function that can handle notifications received from the PostgreSQL server. Notifications can be received at any time, usually during handling of a query response. The *PgConn is provided so the handler is aware of the origin of the notice, but it must not invoke any query method. Be aware that this is distinct from a notice event.
type PgConn ¶
type PgConn struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
PgConn is a low-level PostgreSQL connection handle. It is not safe for concurrent usage.
func Connect ¶
Connect establishes a connection to a PostgreSQL server using the environment and connString (in URL or DSN format) to provide configuration. See documentation for ParseConfig for details. ctx can be used to cancel a connect attempt.
func ConnectConfig ¶
Connect establishes a connection to a PostgreSQL server using config. config must have been constructed with ParseConfig. ctx can be used to cancel a connect attempt.
If config.Fallbacks are present they will sequentially be tried in case of error establishing network connection. An authentication error will terminate the chain of attempts (like libpq: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-MULTIPLE-HOSTS) and be returned as the error. Otherwise, if all attempts fail the last error is returned.
func Construct ¶
func Construct(hc *HijackedConn) (*PgConn, error)
Construct created a PgConn from an already established connection to a PostgreSQL server. This is the inverse of PgConn.Hijack. The connection must be in an idle state.
Due to the necessary exposure of internal implementation details, it is not covered by the semantic versioning compatibility.
func (*PgConn) CancelRequest ¶
CancelRequest sends a cancel request to the PostgreSQL server. It returns an error if unable to deliver the cancel request, but lack of an error does not ensure that the query was canceled. As specified in the documentation, there is no way to be sure a query was canceled. See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/protocol-flow.html#id-1.10.5.7.9
func (*PgConn) CleanupDone ¶
func (pgConn *PgConn) CleanupDone() chan (struct{})
CleanupDone returns a channel that will be closed after all underlying resources have been cleaned up. A closed connection is no longer usable, but underlying resources, in particular the net.Conn, may not have finished closing yet. This is because certain errors such as a context cancellation require that the interrupted function call return immediately, but the error may also cause the connection to be closed. In these cases the underlying resources are closed asynchronously.
This is only likely to be useful to connection pools. It gives them a way avoid establishing a new connection while an old connection is still being cleaned up and thereby exceeding the maximum pool size.
func (*PgConn) Close ¶
Close closes a connection. It is safe to call Close on a already closed connection. Close attempts a clean close by sending the exit message to PostgreSQL. However, this could block so ctx is available to limit the time to wait. The underlying net.Conn.Close() will always be called regardless of any other errors.
func (*PgConn) CopyFrom ¶
CopyFrom executes the copy command sql and copies all of r to the PostgreSQL server.
Note: context cancellation will only interrupt operations on the underlying PostgreSQL network connection. Reads on r could still block.
func (*PgConn) EscapeString ¶
EscapeString escapes a string such that it can safely be interpolated into a SQL command string. It does not include the surrounding single quotes.
The current implementation requires that standard_conforming_strings=on and client_encoding="UTF8". If these conditions are not met an error will be returned. It is possible these restrictions will be lifted in the future.
func (*PgConn) Exec ¶
func (pgConn *PgConn) Exec(ctx context.Context, sql string) *MultiResultReader
Exec executes SQL via the PostgreSQL simple query protocol. SQL may contain multiple queries. Execution is implicitly wrapped in a transaction unless a transaction is already in progress or SQL contains transaction control statements.
Prefer ExecParams unless executing arbitrary SQL that may contain multiple queries.
func (*PgConn) ExecBatch ¶
func (pgConn *PgConn) ExecBatch(ctx context.Context, batch *Batch) *MultiResultReader
ExecBatch executes all the queries in batch in a single round-trip. Execution is implicitly transactional unless a transaction is already in progress or SQL contains transaction control statements.
func (*PgConn) ExecParams ¶
func (pgConn *PgConn) ExecParams(ctx context.Context, sql string, paramValues [][]byte, paramOIDs []uint32, paramFormats []int16, resultFormats []int16) *ResultReader
ExecParams executes a command via the PostgreSQL extended query protocol.
sql is a SQL command string. It may only contain one query. Parameter substitution is positional using $1, $2, $3, etc.
paramValues are the parameter values. It must be encoded in the format given by paramFormats.
paramOIDs is a slice of data type OIDs for paramValues. If paramOIDs is nil, the server will infer the data type for all parameters. Any paramOID element that is 0 that will cause the server to infer the data type for that parameter. ExecParams will panic if len(paramOIDs) is not 0, 1, or len(paramValues).
paramFormats is a slice of format codes determining for each paramValue column whether it is encoded in text or binary format. If paramFormats is nil all params are text format. ExecParams will panic if len(paramFormats) is not 0, 1, or len(paramValues).
resultFormats is a slice of format codes determining for each result column whether it is encoded in text or binary format. If resultFormats is nil all results will be in text format.
ResultReader must be closed before PgConn can be used again.
func (*PgConn) ExecPrepared ¶
func (pgConn *PgConn) ExecPrepared(ctx context.Context, stmtName string, paramValues [][]byte, paramFormats []int16, resultFormats []int16) *ResultReader
ExecPrepared enqueues the execution of a prepared statement via the PostgreSQL extended query protocol.
paramValues are the parameter values. It must be encoded in the format given by paramFormats.
paramFormats is a slice of format codes determining for each paramValue column whether it is encoded in text or binary format. If paramFormats is nil all params are text format. ExecPrepared will panic if len(paramFormats) is not 0, 1, or len(paramValues).
resultFormats is a slice of format codes determining for each result column whether it is encoded in text or binary format. If resultFormats is nil all results will be in text format.
ResultReader must be closed before PgConn can be used again.
func (*PgConn) Hijack ¶
func (pgConn *PgConn) Hijack() (*HijackedConn, error)
Hijack extracts the internal connection data. pgConn must be in an idle state. pgConn is unusable after hijacking. Hijacking is typically only useful when using pgconn to establish a connection, but taking complete control of the raw connection after that (e.g. a load balancer or proxy).
Due to the necessary exposure of internal implementation details, it is not covered by the semantic versioning compatibility.
func (*PgConn) IsClosed ¶
IsClosed reports if the connection has been closed.
CleanupDone() can be used to determine if all cleanup has been completed.
func (*PgConn) ParameterStatus ¶
ParameterStatus returns the value of a parameter reported by the server (e.g. server_version). Returns an empty string for unknown parameters.
func (*PgConn) Prepare ¶
func (pgConn *PgConn) Prepare(ctx context.Context, name, sql string, paramOIDs []uint32) (*StatementDescription, error)
Prepare creates a prepared statement. If the name is empty, the anonymous prepared statement will be used. This allows Prepare to also to describe statements without creating a server-side prepared statement.
func (*PgConn) ReceiveMessage ¶
ReceiveMessage receives one wire protocol message from the PostgreSQL server. It must only be used when the connection is not busy. e.g. It is an error to call ReceiveMessage while reading the result of a query. The messages are still handled by the core pgconn message handling system so receiving a NotificationResponse will still trigger the OnNotification callback.
This is a very low level method that requires deep understanding of the PostgreSQL wire protocol to use correctly. See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/protocol.html.
func (*PgConn) ReceiveResults ¶
func (pgConn *PgConn) ReceiveResults(ctx context.Context) *MultiResultReader
ReceiveResults reads the result that might be returned by Postgres after a SendBytes (e.a. after sending a CopyDone in a copy-both situation).
This is a very low level method that requires deep understanding of the PostgreSQL wire protocol to use correctly. See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/protocol.html.
func (*PgConn) SecretKey ¶
SecretKey returns the backend secret key used to send a cancel query message to the server.
func (*PgConn) SendBytes ¶
SendBytes sends buf to the PostgreSQL server. It must only be used when the connection is not busy. e.g. It is as error to call SendBytes while reading the result of a query.
This is a very low level method that requires deep understanding of the PostgreSQL wire protocol to use correctly. See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/protocol.html.
func (*PgConn) TxStatus ¶
TxStatus returns the current TxStatus as reported by the server in the ReadyForQuery message.
Possible return values:
'I' - idle / not in transaction 'T' - in a transaction 'E' - in a failed transaction
See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/protocol-message-formats.html.
type PgError ¶
type PgError struct { Severity string Code string Message string Detail string Hint string Position int32 InternalPosition int32 InternalQuery string Where string SchemaName string TableName string ColumnName string DataTypeName string ConstraintName string File string Line int32 Routine string }
PgError represents an error reported by the PostgreSQL server. See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/static/protocol-error-fields.html for detailed field description.
func ErrorResponseToPgError ¶
func ErrorResponseToPgError(msg *pgproto3.ErrorResponse) *PgError
ErrorResponseToPgError converts a wire protocol error message to a *PgError.
type Result ¶
type Result struct { FieldDescriptions []pgproto3.FieldDescription Rows [][][]byte CommandTag CommandTag Err error }
Result is the saved query response that is returned by calling Read on a ResultReader.
type ResultReader ¶
type ResultReader struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
ResultReader is a reader for the result of a single query.
func (*ResultReader) Close ¶
func (rr *ResultReader) Close() (CommandTag, error)
Close consumes any remaining result data and returns the command tag or error.
func (*ResultReader) FieldDescriptions ¶
func (rr *ResultReader) FieldDescriptions() []pgproto3.FieldDescription
FieldDescriptions returns the field descriptions for the current result set. The returned slice is only valid until the ResultReader is closed.
func (*ResultReader) NextRow ¶
func (rr *ResultReader) NextRow() bool
NextRow advances the ResultReader to the next row and returns true if a row is available.
func (*ResultReader) Read ¶
func (rr *ResultReader) Read() *Result
Read saves the query response to a Result.
func (*ResultReader) Values ¶
func (rr *ResultReader) Values() [][]byte
Values returns the current row data. NextRow must have been previously been called. The returned [][]byte is only valid until the next NextRow call or the ResultReader is closed. However, the underlying byte data is safe to retain a reference to and mutate.
