In the last post Updating/Deleting rows with Go, we learned to manipulate rows in PostgreSQL database in Go project using database/sql package that ships with Go, along with github.com/lib/pq Postgres driver. In this post, we’ll learn how to query rows i.e. SELECT
In the previous post Inserting records into a database with Go, we learned how to insert rows to PostgreSQL database from Go project using database/sql package that ships with Go, along with github.com/lib/pq Postgres driver. In this post, we’ll learn the remaining two DML (data manipulation language) operations i.e. UPDATE and DELETE.
In the previous post Connecting to PostgreSQL from Go lang project, we learned how to connect to the PostgreSQL database from Go lang project using database/sql package that ships with Go, along with github.com/lib/pq Postgres driver. In this post, we’ll learn how to insert data (rows) in a PostgreSQL table.
The Go programming language, sometimes referred to as Go lang, is making strong gains in popularity. Chances are if you are a Go developer, you will have to interact with SQL at some point in your project.
