# pq - A pure Go postgres driver for Go's database/sql package
|
|
|
|
[](https://travis-ci.org/lib/pq)
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
go get github.com/lib/pq
|
|
|
|
## Docs
|
|
|
|
For detailed documentation and basic usage examples, please see the package
|
|
documentation at <http://godoc.org/github.com/lib/pq>.
|
|
|
|
## 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 github.com/lib/pq
|
|
|
|
Optionally, a benchmark suite can be run as part of the tests:
|
|
|
|
PGHOST=/var/run/postgresql go test -bench .
|
|
|
|
## 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`)
|
|
* Package for `hstore` support
|
|
* COPY FROM support
|
|
* pq.ParseURL for converting urls to connection strings for sql.Open.
|
|
* Many libpq compatible environment variables
|
|
* Unix socket support
|
|
* Notifications: `LISTEN`/`NOTIFY`
|
|
|
|
## Future / Things you can help with
|
|
|
|
* Better COPY FROM / COPY TO (see discussion in #181)
|
|
