PostgreSQL Connection and Data Manipulation in Go

This Go package provides a convenient way to connect to a PostgreSQL database, fetch data from a table, and insert data in bulk. The package utilizes the pgx library for database interactions.

Usage

1. Connection Setup

1. Import this repository:

   go get -u  github.com/siqueiraa/postgres-connect-go/db
   

2. Create a YAML configuration file (config.yaml) with your PostgreSQL connection details:

   user: your_username
   password: your_password
   host: localhost
   port: 5432
   dbname: your_database
   sslmode: disable
   logLevel: debug

2. Initialize the Database Connection

In your Go code, import the db package and initialize the database connection:

package main

import (
	"log"
	"github.com/siqueiraa/postgres-connect-go/db"
)

func main() {
	err := db.InitDB()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal("Error initializing the database:", err)
	}
	defer db.Pool.Close()
}

3. Fetch Data from a Table

In your Go code, use the following snippet to fetch data from a PostgreSQL table:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"github.com/siqueiraa/postgres-connect-go/db"
)

func main() {
    // Define your SQL query
	query := "SELECT * FROM your_table"
    
    // Fetch data from the table
	result, err := db.FetchDataFromTable(query, nil)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Error fetching data:", err)
		return
	}

	fmt.Println("Fetched data:", result)
}

4. Insert Bulk Data into a Table

In your Go code, use the following snippet to insert bulk data into a PostgreSQL table:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"github.com/siqueiraa/postgres-connect-go/db"
)

func main() {
    // Your data to be inserted
	data := []map[string]interface{}{
		{"column1": value1, "column2": value2},
		// Add more rows as needed
	}

    // Specify the target table and primary key columns
	tableName := "your_table"
	primaryKey := []string{"column1"}

    // Insert bulk data into the table
	err := db.InsertBulkData(data, tableName, primaryKey)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println("Error inserting bulk data:", err)
		return
	}

	fmt.Println("Bulk data inserted successfully.")
}

Note

Ensure that your PostgreSQL server is running and accessible. Modify the connection details and queries according to your database and table structure. For more detailed information, refer to the https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/jackc/pgx/v4
