---------------------------------------
## Installation
Simple install the package to your [$GOPATH](http://code.google.com/p/go-wiki/wiki/GOPATH "GOPATH") with the [go tool](http://golang.org/cmd/go/ "go command") from shell:
```bash
$ go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql
```
Make sure [Git is installed](http://git-scm.com/downloads) 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`](http://golang.org/pkg/database/sql) API then.
Use `mysql` as `driverName` and a valid [DSN](#dsn-data-source-name) as `dataSourceName`:
```go
import "database/sql"
import _ "github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql"
db, err := sql.Open("mysql", "user:password@/dbname")
```
[Examples are available in our Wiki](https://github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql/wiki/Examples "Go-MySQL-Driver Examples").
### DSN (Data Source Name)
The Data Source Name has a common format, like e.g. [PEAR DB](http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.database.db.intro-dsn.php) uses it, but without type-prefix (optional parts marked by squared brackets):
```
[username[:password]@][protocol[(address)]]/dbname[?param1=value1&...&paramN=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](http://golang.org/pkg/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](http://golang.org/pkg/net/#JoinHostPort) and [net.SplitHostPort](http://golang.org/pkg/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!*](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/load-data-local.html)
##### `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](https://github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql/wiki/old_passwords).
##### `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](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/charset-unicode-utf8mb4.html)) 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](http://golang.org/pkg/time/#LoadLocation) for details.
Please keep in mind, that param values must be [url.QueryEscape](http://golang.org/pkg/net/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`](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/server-system-variables.html#sysvar_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`](http://godoc.org/github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql#RegisterTLSConfig).
##### System Variables
All other parameters are interpreted as system variables:
* `autocommit`: `"SET autocommit=<value>"`
* `time_zone`: `"SET time_zone=<value>"`
* [`tx_isolation`](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/server-system-variables.html#sysvar_tx_isolation): `"SET tx_isolation=<value>"`
* `param`: `"SET <param>=<value>"`
*The values must be [url.QueryEscape](http://golang.org/pkg/net/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 `_`):
```go
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!*](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/load-data-local.html)).
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](http://godoc.org/github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql "golang mysql driver documentation") 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](http://golang.org/pkg/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](https://github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql/wiki/Examples#rawbytes).
Alternatively you can use the [`NullTime`](http://godoc.org/github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql#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](https://github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql/wiki/Testing "Testing") for details.
Go-MySQL-Driver is not feature-complete yet. Your help is very appreciated.
