The problem with MySQL's Go driver (https://github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql) is that it won't translate numbers in the response when the text protocol is used (which happens when a query is run without any parameters). Multiple issues have been filed against this for years, but the developers have responded with a
wontfix
due to the dubious claim that it's too much of a performance hit. See go-sql-driver/mysql#861 for an example.This update checks to see if a query has no query args. If it does, it checks to see if the Querier/ContextQuerier also implements Prepare/PrepareContext and if so, it creates a statement, forcing MySQL to use the binary protocol. (Postgres will also be using a prepared statement unnecessarily, but it probably has minimal performance difference).
