time.Timeparsing
Requirements
- Go 1.1 or higher (use v1.0 for Go 1.0.x)
- MySQL (Version 4.1 or higher), MariaDB or Percona Server
Installation
Simple install the package to your $GOPATH with the go tool from shell:
$ go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql
Make sure Git is installed on your machine and in your system's PATH.
Usage
Go MySQL Driver is an implementation of Go's database/sql/driver interface. You only need to import the driver and can use the full database/sql API then.
Use mysql as driverName and a valid DSN as dataSourceName:
import "database/sql"
import _ "github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql"
db, err := sql.Open("mysql", "user:password@/dbname")
Examples are available in our Wiki.
DSN (Data Source Name)
The Data Source Name has a common format, like e.g. PEAR DB uses it, but without type-prefix (optional parts marked by squared brackets):
[username[:password]@][protocol[(address)]]/dbname[?param1=value1&...¶mN=valueN]
A DSN in its fullest form:
username:password@protocol(address)/dbname?param=value
Except for the databasename, all values are optional. So the minimal DSN is:
/dbname
If you do not want to preselect a database, leave dbname empty:
/
This has the same effect as an empty DSN string:
Password
Passwords can consist of any character. Escaping is not necessary.
Protocol
See net.Dial for more information which networks are available. In general you should use an Unix domain socket if available and TCP otherwise for best performance.
Address
For TCP and UDP networks, addresses have the form host:port.
If host is a literal IPv6 address, it must be enclosed in square brackets.
The functions net.JoinHostPort and net.SplitHostPort manipulate addresses in this form.
For Unix domain sockets the address is the absolute path to the MySQL-Server-socket, e.g. /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock or /tmp/mysql.sock.
Parameters
Parameters are case-sensitive!
allowAllFiles
Type: bool
Valid Values: true, false
Default: false
allowAllFiles=true disables the file Whitelist for LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE and allows all files.
Might be insecure!
allowOldPasswords
Type: bool
Valid Values: true, false
Default: false
allowAllFiles=true allows the usage of the insecure old password method. This should be avoided, but is necessary in some cases. See also the old_passwords wiki page.
charset
Type: string
Valid Values: <name>
Default: none
Sets the charset used for client-server interaction ("SET NAMES <value>"). If multiple charsets are set (separated by a comma), the following charset is used if setting the charset failes. This enables support for utf8mb4 (introduced in MySQL 5.5.3) with fallback to utf8 for older servers (charset=utf8mb4,utf8).
clientFoundRows
Type: bool
Valid Values: true, false
Default: false
clientFoundRows=true causes an UPDATE to return the number of matching rows instead of the number of rows changed.
loc
Type: string
Valid Values: <escaped name>
Default: UTC
Sets the location for time.Time values (when using parseTime=true). "Local" sets the system's location. See time.LoadLocation for details.
Please keep in mind, that param values must be url.QueryEscape'ed. Alternatively you can manually replace the / with %2F. For example US/Pacific would be loc=US%2FPacific.
parseTime
Type: bool
Valid Values: true, false
Default: false
parseTime=true changes the output type of DATE and DATETIME values to time.Time instead of []byte / string
strict
Type: bool
Valid Values: true, false
Default: false
strict=true enables strict mode. MySQL warnings are treated as errors.
timeout
Type: decimal number
Default: OS default
Driver side connection timeout. The value must be a string of decimal numbers, each with optional fraction and a unit suffix ( "ms", "s", "m", "h" ), such as "30s", "0.5m" or "1m30s". To set a server side timeout, use the parameter wait_timeout.
tls
Type: bool / string
Valid Values: true, false, skip-verify, <name>
Default: false
tls=true enables TLS / SSL encrypted connection to the server. Use skip-verify if you want to use a self-signed or invalid certificate (server side). Use a custom value registered with mysql.RegisterTLSConfig.
System Variables
All other parameters are interpreted as system variables:
autocommit:"SET autocommit=<value>"time_zone:"SET time_zone=<value>"tx_isolation:"SET tx_isolation=<value>"param:"SET <param>=<value>"
The values must be url.QueryEscape'ed!
Examples
user@unix(/path/to/socket)/dbname
root:pw@unix(/tmp/mysql.sock)/myDatabase?loc=Local
user:password@tcp(localhost:5555)/dbname?tls=skip-verify&autocommit=true
TCP via IPv6:
user:password@tcp([de:ad:be:ef::ca:fe]:80)/dbname?timeout=90s
TCP on a remote host, e.g. Amazon RDS:
id:password@tcp(your-amazonaws-uri.com:3306)/dbname
TCP using default port (3306) on localhost:
user:password@tcp/dbname&charset=utf8mb4,utf8&sys_var=esc%40ped
Use the default protocol (tcp) and host (localhost:3306):
user:password@/dbname
No Database preselected:
user:password@/
LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE support
For this feature you need direct access to the package. Therefore you must change the import path (no _):
import "github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql"
Files must be whitelisted by registering them with mysql.RegisterLocalFile(filepath) (recommended) or the Whitelist check must be deactivated by using the DSN parameter allowAllFiles=true (Might be insecure!).
To use a io.Reader a handler function must be registered with mysql.RegisterReaderHandler(name, handler) which returns a io.Reader or io.ReadCloser. The Reader is available with the filepath Reader::<name> then.
See the godoc of Go-MySQL-Driver for details.
time.Time support
The default internal output type of MySQL DATE and DATETIME values is []byte which allows you to scan the value into a []byte, string or sql.RawBytes variable in your programm.
However, many want to scan MySQL DATE and DATETIME values into time.Time variables, which is the logical opposite in Go to DATE and DATETIME in MySQL. You can do that by changing the internal output type from []byte to time.Time with the DSN parameter parseTime=true. You can set the default time.Time location with the loc DSN parameter.
Caution: As of Go 1.1, this makes time.Time the only variable type you can scan DATE and DATETIME values into. This breaks for example sql.RawBytes support.
Alternatively you can use the NullTime type as the scan destination, which works with both time.Time and string / []byte.
Unicode support
Since version 1.1 Go-MySQL-Driver automatically uses the collation utf8_general_ci by default. Adding &charset=utf8 (alias for SET NAMES utf8) to the DSN is not necessary anymore in most cases.
See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/charset-unicode.html for more details on MySQL's Unicode support.
Testing / Development
To run the driver tests you may need to adjust the configuration. See the Testing Wiki-Page for details.
