Are there any solution for SELECT * FROM in golang SQL drivers [duplicate] - sql

Question

Basically after doing a query I'd like to take the resulting rows and produce a []map[string]interface{}, but I do not see how to do this with the API since the Rows.Scan() function needs a specific number of parameters matching the requested number of columns (and possibly the types as well) to correctly obtain the data.
Again, I'd like to generalize this call and take any query and turn it into a []map[string]interface{}, where the map contains column names mapped to the values for that row.
This is likely very inefficient, and I plan on changing the structure later so that interface{} is a struct for a single data point.
How would I do this using just the database/sql package, or if necessary the database/sql/driver package?

Answer 1

Look at using sqlx, which can do this a little more easily than the standard database/sql library:
places := []Place{}
err := db.Select(&places, "SELECT * FROM place ORDER BY telcode ASC")
if err != nil {
fmt.Printf(err)
return
}
You could obviously replace []Place{} with a []map[string]interface{}, but where possible it is better to use a struct if you know the structure of your database. You won't need to undertake any type assertions as you might on an interface{}.

Answer 2

I haven't used it (yet), but I believe the "common" way to do what you are asking (more or less) is to use gorp.

Answer 3

You can create a struct that maintains the map key to the position of the []interface{} slice. By doing this, you do not need to create a predefined struct. For example:
IDOrder: 0
IsClose: 1
IsConfirm: 2
IDUser: 3
Then, you can use it like this:
// create a fieldbinding object.
var fArr []string
fb := fieldbinding.NewFieldBinding()
if fArr, err = rs.Columns(); err != nil {
return nil, err
}
fb.PutFields(fArr)
//
outArr := []interface{}{}
for rs.Next() {
if err := rs.Scan(fb.GetFieldPtrArr()...); err != nil {
return nil, err
}
fmt.Printf("Row: %v, %v, %v, %s\n", fb.Get("IDOrder"), fb.Get("IsConfirm"), fb.Get("IDUser"), fb.Get("Created"))
outArr = append(outArr, fb.GetFieldArr())
}
Sample output:
Row: 1, 1, 1, 2016-07-15 10:39:37 +0000 UTC
Row: 2, 1, 11, 2016-07-15 10:42:04 +0000 UTC
Row: 3, 1, 10, 2016-07-15 10:46:20 +0000 UTC
SampleQuery: [{"Created":"2016-07-15T10:39:37Z","IDOrder":1,"IDUser":1,"IsClose":0,"IsConfirm":1},{"Created":"2016-07-15T10:42:04Z","IDOrder":2,"IDUser":11,"IsClose":0,"IsConfirm":1},{"Created":"2016-07-15T10:46:20Z","IDOrder":3,"IDUser":10,"IsClose":0,"IsConfirm":1}]

Answer 4

If you really want a map, which is needed in some cases, have a look at dbr, but you need to use the fork (since the pr got rejected in the original repo). The fork seems more up to date anyway:

package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/bobby96333/goSqlHelper"
)
func main(){
fmt.Println("hello")
conn,err :=goSqlHelper.MysqlOpen("user:password#tcp(127.0.0.1:3306)/dbname")
checkErr(err)
row,err := conn.QueryRow("select * from table where col1 = ? and col2 = ?","123","abc")
checkErr(err)
if *row==nil {
fmt.Println("no found row")
}else{
fmt.Printf("%+v",row)
}
}
func checkErr(err error){
if err!=nil {
panic(err)
}
}
output:
&map[col1:abc col2:123]
