null

import "gopkg.in/guregu/null.v3"
null is a library with reasonable options for dealing with nullable SQL and JSON values
There are two packages: null
and its subpackage zero
.
Types in null
will only be considered null on null input, and will JSON encode to null
. If you need zero and null be considered separate values, use these.
Types in zero
are treated like zero values in Go: blank string input will produce a null zero.String
, and null Strings will JSON encode to ""
. Zero values of these types will be considered null to SQL. If you need zero and null treated the same, use these.
All types implement sql.Scanner
and driver.Valuer
, so you can use this library in place of sql.NullXXX
. All types also implement: encoding.TextMarshaler
, encoding.TextUnmarshaler
, json.Marshaler
, and json.Unmarshaler
.
null package
import "gopkg.in/guregu/null.v3"
null.String
Nullable string.
Marshals to JSON null if SQL source data is null. Zero (blank) input will not produce a null String. Can unmarshal from sql.NullString
JSON input or string input.
null.Int
Nullable int64.
Marshals to JSON null if SQL source data is null. Zero input will not produce a null Int. Can unmarshal from sql.NullInt64
JSON input.
null.Float
Nullable float64.
Marshals to JSON null if SQL source data is null. Zero input will not produce a null Float. Can unmarshal from sql.NullFloat64
JSON input.
null.Bool
Nullable bool.
Marshals to JSON null if SQL source data is null. False input will not produce a null Bool. Can unmarshal from sql.NullBool
JSON input.
null.Time
Marshals to JSON null if SQL source data is null. Uses time.Time
's marshaler. Can unmarshal from pq.NullTime
and similar JSON input.
zero package
import "gopkg.in/guregu/null.v3/zero"
zero.String
Nullable string.
Will marshal to a blank string if null. Blank string input produces a null String. Null values and zero values are considered equivalent. Can unmarshal from sql.NullString
JSON input.
zero.Int
Nullable int64.
Will marshal to 0 if null. 0 produces a null Int. Null values and zero values are considered equivalent. Can unmarshal from sql.NullInt64
JSON input.
zero.Float
Nullable float64.
Will marshal to 0 if null. 0.0 produces a null Float. Null values and zero values are considered equivalent. Can unmarshal from sql.NullFloat64
JSON input.
zero.Bool
Nullable bool.
Will marshal to false if null. false
produces a null Float. Null values and zero values are considered equivalent. Can unmarshal from sql.NullBool
JSON input.
zero.Time
Will marshal to the zero time if null. Uses time.Time
's marshaler. Can unmarshal from pq.NullTime
and similar JSON input.
Bugs
json
's ",omitempty"
struct tag does not work correctly right now. It will never omit a null or empty String. This might be fixed eventually.

Overview ¶
Package null contains SQL types that consider zero input and null input as separate values, with convenient support for JSON and text marshaling. Types in this package will always encode to their null value if null. Use the zero subpackage if you want zero values and null to be treated the same.

Variables ¶
Functions ¶
Types ¶
type Bool ¶
Bool is a nullable bool. It does not consider false values to be null. It will decode to null, not false, if null.
func BoolFromPtr ¶
BoolFromPtr creates a new Bool that will be null if f is nil.
func (Bool) IsZero ¶
IsZero returns true for invalid Bools, for future omitempty support (Go 1.4?) A non-null Bool with a 0 value will not be considered zero.
func (Bool) MarshalJSON ¶
MarshalJSON implements json.Marshaler. It will encode null if this Bool is null.
func (Bool) MarshalText ¶
MarshalText implements encoding.TextMarshaler. It will encode a blank string if this Bool is null.
func (Bool) Ptr ¶
Ptr returns a pointer to this Bool's value, or a nil pointer if this Bool is null.
