godb - a Go query builder and struct mapper
godb is a simple Go query builder and struct mapper, not a full-featured ORM. godb does not manage relationships.
Initially, godb was a learning project. The goal was to improve my Go skills by doing some useful things. But more and more features have been added and godb has become a serious project that can be used by others.
godb is a project that is still young and evolving. The API is almost stable, but it can still change slightly from one version to another. Each new version is associated with a tag, so it is possible to target a particular one if necessary.
Features
- Queries builder.
- Mapping between structs and tables (or views).
- Mapping with nested structs.
- Execution of custom SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE queries with structs and slices.
- Optional execution of SELECT queries with an iterator to limit memory consumption if needed (e.g. batches).
- Execution of raw queries, mapping rows to structs.
- Optimistic Locking
- SQL queries and durations logs.
- Two adjustable prepared statements caches (with/without transaction).
RETURNING
support for PostgreSQL.OUTPUT
support for SQL Server.- Optional common db errors handling for backend databases.(
db.UseErrorParser()
) - Define your own logger (should have
Println(...)
method) - Define model struct name to db table naming with
db.SetDefaultTableNamer(yourFn)
. Supported types are: Plural,Snake,SnakePlural. You can also define TableName() string
method to for your struct and return whatever table name will be. - BlackListing or WhiteListing columns for struct based inserts and updates.
- Could by used with
- SQLite
- PostgreSQL
- MySQL / MariaDB
- MS SQL Server
- other compatible database if you write an adapter.
I made tests of godb on differents architectures and operating systems : OSX, Windows, Linux, ARM (Cortex A7) and Intel x64.
The current version of godb is compatible from Go 1.13 to 1.16. Older versions through 1.10 to 1.12 are supported by the v1.0.14 tag .
Documentation
There are three forms of documentation :
- This README with the example presented below, which gives an overview of what godb allows.
- The tests in
dbtests/common
, which are run on the different databases supported. - Detailed documentation on GoDoc: https://godoc.org/github.com/samonzeweb/godb
Install
go get github.com/samonzeweb/godb
Install the required driver (see tests). You cas use multiple databases if needed.
Of course you can also use a dependency management tool like dep
.
Running Tests
godb tests use GoConvey and at least SQLite :
go get github.com/smartystreets/goconvey
go get github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3
To run tests, go into the godb directory and executes go test ./...
SQLite tests are done with in memory database, it's fast. You can run tests with others databases, see below.
With the exception of SQLite, all drivers are pure Go code, and does not require external dependencies.
Test with PostgreSQL
Install the driver and set the GODB_POSTGRESQL
environment variable with the PostgreSQL connection string.
go get github.com/lib/pq
GODB_POSTGRESQL="your connection string" go test ./...
Test with MySQL / MariaDB
Install the driver and set the GODB_MYSQL
environment variable with the MySQL connection string.
go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql
GODB_MYSQL="your connection string" go test ./...
Test with MS SQL Server
Install the driver and set the GODB_MSSQL
environment variable with the SQL Server connection string.
go get github.com/denisenkom/go-mssqldb
GODB_MSSQL="your connection string" go test ./...
Test all with Docker
Using Docker you can test with SQLite, PostgreSQL, MariaDB and SQL Server with the testallwithdocker.sh
shell script.
SQL Server is greedy, on OSX allow at least 4Go to Docker.
Example
The example below illustrates the main features of godb.
You can copy the code into an example.go
file and run it. You need to create the database and the books
table as explained in the code.
