pmx

Golang data mapping library for postgres and pgx.

Install

go get -u github.com/superbstinge/pmx

Features

• Simple data mapping with struct tags
• Explicit by design, no magic or conventions
• Insert database records from an annotated struct
• Select database records into an annotated struct or slice
• Compatible with pgx Exec/Query interface i.e. pgxpool.Pool, pgx.Conn, pgx.Tx
• Support for default ("auto generated") values, transient fields and all pgx types e.g. jsonb maps and slices

Data mapping

Given the following table:

create table events (
    id uuid primary key,
    payload jsonb,
    recorded_at timestamptz
);

Annotate a data model with struct tags:

type Event struct {
    ID                string         `db:"id" table:"events"`
    Payload           map[string]any `db:"payload"`
    RecordedAt        time.Time      `db:"recorded_at"`
    ExportedTransient string         // ignored by pmx
    privateTransient  string         // ignored by pmx
}

• Annotate the first struct field with table (required for insert statements only)
• Annotate exported struct fields with db (required for insert and select statements)
• Exported fields without a db struct tag are transient and ignored by pmx
• Private fields are always transient and ignored by pmx

Insert

Always provide a struct pointer.

Use the function pmx.UniqueViolation(err) to determine whether an insert statement failed due to unique violation.

func main() {
    ctx := context.Background()

    conn, err := pgx.Connect(ctx, "postgresql://...")
    if err != nil {
        log.Panicf("connection error: %+v", err)
    }
    defer conn.Close(ctx)

    event := Event{
        ID:         "a1eff19b-4624-46c6-9e09-5910e7b2938d",
        Payload:    map[string]any{"key", "value"},
        RecordedAt: time.Now(),
    }

    // Generated query: insert into events (id, payload, recorded_at) values ($1, $2, $3)
    tag, err := pmx.Insert(ctx, conn, &event)
    if pmx.UniqueViolation(err) {
        log.Panicf("unique violation error: %+v", err)
    }
    if err != nil {
        log.Panicf("error: %+v", err)
    }

    log.Printf("tag: %+v", tag)
    log.Printf("event: %+v", event)
}

Select one record

Always provide a struct pointer.

Selecting one record will error with pmx.ErrNoRows if an empty dataset is returned from the query.

func main() {
    ctx := context.Background()

    conn, err := pgx.Connect(ctx, "postgresql://...")
    if err != nil {
        log.Panicf("connection error: %+v", err)
    }
    defer conn.Close(ctx)

    var event Event
    err = pmx.Select(ctx, conn, &event, "select * from events where id = $1", "a1eff19b-4624-46c6-9e09-5910e7b2938d")
    if errors.Is(err, pmx.ErrNoRows) {
        log.Panicf("event not found error: %+v", err)
    }
    if err != nil {
        log.Panicf("error: %+v", err)
    }

    log.Printf("event: %+v", event)
}

Select multiple records

Always provide a slice pointer. The underlying slice type must be a struct pointer.

Selecting multiple records won't error if an empty dataset is returned from the query.

func main() {
    ctx := context.Background()

    conn, err := pgx.Connect(ctx, "postgresql://...")
    if err != nil {
        log.Panicf("connection error: %+v", err)
    }
    defer conn.Close(ctx)

    var events []*Event
    err = pmx.Select(ctx, conn, &events, "select * from events limit 10")
    if err != nil {
        log.Panicf("error: %+v", err)
    }
    if len(events) == 0 {
      log.Printf("no events found: %+v", events)
    }

    log.Printf("events: %+v", events)
}

Default ("auto generated") values

Default values are generated by the database upon insert, for example, serials, sequences, and default timestamps.

Given the following table:

create table events (
		id bigserial primary key,
		recorded_at timestamptz default now()
);

Annotate struct fields with a default:"true" struct tag:

type Event struct {
    ID         int64     `db:"id"          default:"true" table:"events"`
    RecordedAt time.Time `db:"recorded_at" default:"true"`
}

• Both columns will use their corresponding default values in insert statements.
• Both struct fields will be populated with values from insert returning statements.

ErrInvalidRef

The error pmx.ErrInvalidRef ("invalid ref") means you provided an invalid pointer reference.

ErrNoRows

The error pmx.ErrNoRows means an empty dataset was returned when selecting one record.

This error is a reference to the underlying pgx.ErrNoRows for convenience in data access layers.
