pq

Documentation

Overview

Package pq is the minimal fork of lib/pq so we can use their code to parse the postgres DSNs

Index

• func ParseOpts(name string, o values) error
• func ParseURL(url string) (string, error)

Functions

func ParseOpts

func ParseOpts(name string, o values) error

ParseOpts parses the options from name and adds them to the values. The parsing code is based on conninfo_parse from libpq's fe-connect.c

func ParseURL

func ParseURL(url string) (string, error)

ParseURL no longer needs to be used by clients of this library since supplying a URL as a connection string to sql.Open() is now supported:

sql.Open("postgres", "postgres://bob:secret@1.2.3.4:5432/mydb?sslmode=verify-full")

It remains exported here for backwards-compatibility.

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

"postgres://bob:secret@1.2.3.4:5432/mydb?sslmode=verify-full"

converts to:

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

A minimal example:

"postgres://"

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