Stored Procedure with standard database/sql interface?

[asaf]

Hey,

Is there any way to return values from stored procedures using the standard database/sql API?

We're using packages such sqlx that expects the standard sql interface,

Thanks.

AFAIK no. database/sql has very strict rules about the values drivers can return.

Please weigh in in golang/go#18415 and golang/go#18417 !

@tgulacsi yea I know, I was wondering if I have an instance of sql.DB I can cast it back or use its underline connection to use this package's API without re-opening another session / connection to perform the PrepAndExe call,

Another question, I have a map of fields, is it possible to bind fields by name instead of by position ?

Thanks.

I've investigated this topic thoroughly, and database/sql protects the underlying connection through two levels of unexported indirection - so only unsafe methods could surface the underlying connection. Fields by name: check out Go 1.8, the "v4" branch should work with Go 1.8beta2 (or master), and should provide that functionality - if not, please report as bug!

@tgulacsi Thanks,

I'll try 1.8beta2, should it support fields by name in with the OUT parameters of a stored procedure call?
if I bind an output parameter by name, would I expect the corresponding key of the provided map to be overridden with the OUT param value?

Thanks,

No, OUT parameters are restricted just the same. If you want to ease your queries with lots of parameters, you can try https://godoc.org/github.com/tgulacsi/go/orahlp#MapToSlice Asaf Shakarzy <notifications@github.com> ezt írta (időpont: 2017. jan. 6., P, 11:31):

@tgulacsi many thanks,

I guess we'll have to wait for go1.9 to for a more robust, enterprise-ready SQL API :-)

[tgulacsi]

Thats just 8 months! So please contact @kardianos and write on those issues, as these are the forums and now is the time to form that future API! Asaf Shakarzy <notifications@github.com> ezt írta (időpont: 2017. jan. 6., P 12:07):

Will do, thanks!

[kardianos]

Support for OUTPUT params and custom types, and passing options into queries will be supported in go1.9 (already merged into master).

@kardianos where shall we discuss how to use those sql.Out NamedArg Values? It's not clear from the docs yet.
