Overview

Package postgres provides functionality for interacting with PostgreSQL databases.

The postgres package offers a robust interface for working with PostgreSQL databases, built on top of the standard database/sql package. It includes connection management, query execution, transaction handling, and migration tools.

Core Features:

  • Connection pooling and management
  • Parameterized query execution
  • Transaction support with automatic rollback on errors
  • Schema migration tools
  • Row scanning utilities
  • Basic CRUD operations

Basic Usage: 

import (
	"github.com/Aleph-Alpha/std/v1/postgres"
	"github.com/Aleph-Alpha/std/v1/logger"
)

// Create a logger
log, _ := logger.NewLogger(logger.Config{Level: "info"})

// Create a new database connection
db, err := postgres.New(postgres.Config{
	Host:     "localhost",
	Port:     5432,
	Username: "postgres",
	Password: "password",
	Database: "mydb",
}, log)
if err != nil {
	log.Fatal("Failed to connect to database", err, nil)
}
defer db.Close()

// Execute a query
rows, err := db.Query(context.Background(), "SELECT id, name FROM users WHERE age > $1", 18)
if err != nil {
	log.Error("Query failed", err, nil)
}
defer rows.Close()

// Scan the results
var users []User
for rows.Next() {
	var user User
	if err := rows.Scan(&user.ID, &user.Name); err != nil {
		log.Error("Scan failed", err, nil)
	}
	users = append(users, user)
}

Transaction Example: 

err = db.WithTransaction(context.Background(), func(tx postgres.Transaction) error {
	// Execute multiple queries in a transaction
	_, err := tx.Exec("UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance - $1 WHERE id = $2", amount, fromID)
	if err != nil {
		return err  // Transaction will be rolled back
	}

	_, err = tx.Exec("UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance + $1 WHERE id = $2", amount, toID)
	if err != nil {
		return err  // Transaction will be rolled back
	}

	return nil  // Transaction will be committed
})

Basic Operations: 

// Create a record
id, err := db.Insert(ctx, "INSERT INTO users(name, email) VALUES($1, $2) RETURNING id", "John", "john@example.com")

// Check if a record exists
exists, err := db.Exists(ctx, "SELECT 1 FROM users WHERE email = $1", "john@example.com")

// Get a single record
var user User
err = db.Get(ctx, &user, "SELECT id, name, email FROM users WHERE id = $1", id)

FX Module Integration:

This package provides an fx module for easy integration: 

app := fx.New(
	logger.Module,
	postgres.Module,
	// ... other modules
)
app.Run()

Performance Considerations:

  • Connection pooling is automatically handled to optimize performance
  • Prepared statements are used internally to reduce parsing overhead
  • Consider using batch operations for multiple insertions
  • Query timeouts are recommended for all database operations

Thread Safety:

All methods on the DB interface are safe for concurrent use by multiple goroutines.

var FXModule = fx.Module("postgres",
	fx.Provide(
		NewPostgresClientWithDI,
	),
	fx.Invoke(RegisterPostgresLifecycle),
)

FXModule is an fx module that provides the Postgres database component. It registers the Postgres constructor for dependency injection and sets up lifecycle hooks to properly initialize and shut down the database connection.

Functions

func RegisterPostgresLifecycle 

func RegisterPostgresLifecycle(params PostgresLifeCycleParams)

RegisterPostgresLifecycle registers lifecycle hooks for the Postgres database component. It sets up: 1. Connection monitoring on the application starts 2. Automatic reconnection mechanism on application start 3. Graceful shutdown of database connections on application stop

The function uses a WaitGroup to ensure that all goroutines complete before the application terminates.

Types

type Config 

type Config struct {
	// Connection contains the essential parameters needed to establish a database connection
	Connection Connection

	// ConnectionDetails contains configuration for the connection pool behavior
	ConnectionDetails ConnectionDetails
}

Config represents the complete configuration for a PostgresSQL database connection. It encapsulates both the basic connection parameters and detailed connection pool settings.

type Connection 

type Connection struct {
	// Host specifies the database server hostname or IP address
	Host string

	// Port specifies the TCP port on which the database server is listening to
	Port string

	// User specifies the database username for authentication
	User string

	// Password specifies the database user password for authentication
	Password string

	// DbName specifies the name of the database to connect to
	DbName string

	// SSLMode specifies the SSL mode for the connection (e.g., "disable", "require", "verify-ca", "verify-full")
	// For production environments, it's recommended to use at least "require"
	SSLMode string
}

Connection holds the basic parameters required to connect to a PostgresSQL database. These parameters are used to construct the database connection string.

type ConnectionDetails 

type ConnectionDetails struct {
	// MaxOpenConns controls the maximum number of open connections to the database.
	// Setting this appropriately helps prevent overwhelming the database with too many connections.
	// Default is 0 (unlimited).
	MaxOpenConns int

	// MaxIdleConns controls the maximum number of connections in the idle connection pool.
	// A higher value can improve performance under a concurrent load but consumes more resources.
	// Default is 2.
	MaxIdleConns int

	// ConnMaxLifetime is the maximum amount of time a connection may be reused.
	// Expired connections are closed and removed from the pool during connection acquisition.
	// This helps ensure database-enforced timeouts are respected.
	// Default is 0 (unlimited).
	ConnMaxLifetime time.Duration
}

ConnectionDetails holds configuration settings for the database connection pool. These settings help optimize performance and resource usage by controlling how database connections are created, reused, and expired.

type ErrorCategory 

type ErrorCategory int

ErrorCategory represents different categories of database errors 

const (
	CategoryUnknown ErrorCategory = iota
	CategoryConnection
	CategoryQuery
	CategoryData
	CategoryConstraint
	CategoryPermission
	CategoryTransaction
	CategoryResource
	CategorySystem
	CategorySchema
	CategoryOperation
)

type Migration 

type Migration struct {
	// ID is a unique identifier for the migration, typically a timestamp (YYYYMMDDHHMMSS)
	// that also helps establish the execution order.
	ID string

	// Name is a descriptive label for the migration, typically describing what it does.
	Name string

	// Type categorizes the migration as either schema or data.
	Type MigrationType

	// Direction indicates whether this is an up (apply) or down (rollback) migration.
	Direction MigrationDirection

	// SQL contains the actual SQL statements to execute for this migration.
	SQL string
}

Migration represents a single database migration with all its metadata and content. Each migration contains the SQL to execute and information about its purpose and identity.

type MigrationDirection 

type MigrationDirection string

MigrationDirection specifies the direction of the migration, indicating whether it's applying a change or reverting one. 

const (
	// UpMigration indicates a forward migration that applies a change.
	UpMigration MigrationDirection = "up"

	// DownMigration indicates a rollback migration that reverts a change.
	DownMigration MigrationDirection = "down"
)

type MigrationHistoryRecord 

type MigrationHistoryRecord struct {
	// ID matches the migration ID that was applied.
	ID string

	// Name is the descriptive name of the migration.
	Name string

	// Type indicates whether this was a schema or data migration.
	Type string

	// ExecutedAt records when the migration was applied.
	ExecutedAt time.Time

	// ExecutedBy tracks who or what system applied the migration.
	ExecutedBy string

	// Duration measures how long the migration took to execute in milliseconds.
	Duration int64

	// Status indicates whether the migration completed successfully or failed.
	Status string

	// ErrorMessage contains details if the migration failed.
	ErrorMessage string `gorm:"type:text"`
}

MigrationHistoryRecord represents a record in the migration history table. It tracks when and how each migration was applied, enabling the system to determine which migrations have been run and providing an audit trail.

type MigrationType 

type MigrationType string

MigrationType defines the type of migration, categorizing the purpose of the change. This helps track and organize migrations based on their impact on the database. 

const (
	// SchemaType represents schema changes (tables, columns, indexes, etc.)
	// These migrations modify the structure of the database.
	SchemaType MigrationType = "schema"

	// DataType represents data manipulations (inserts, updates, etc.)
	// These migrations modify the content within the database.
	DataType MigrationType = "data"
)

type Postgres 

type Postgres struct {
	Client *gorm.DB
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Postgres is a thread-safe wrapper around gorm.DB that provides connection monitoring, automatic reconnection, and standardized database operations. It guards all database operations with a mutex to ensure thread safety and includes mechanisms for graceful shutdown and connection health monitoring.

func NewPostgres 

func NewPostgres(cfg Config) (*Postgres, error)

NewPostgres creates a new Postgres instance with the provided configuration and Logger. It establishes the initial database connection and sets up the internal state for connection monitoring and recovery. If the initial connection fails, it logs a fatal error and terminates.

func NewPostgresClientWithDI 

func NewPostgresClientWithDI(params PostgresParams) (*Postgres, error)

NewPostgresClientWithDI creates a new Postgres Client using dependency injection. This function is designed to be used with Uber's fx dependency injection framework where the Config and Logger dependencies are automatically provided via the PostgresParams struct.

Parameters:

  • params: A PostgresParams struct containing the Config and Logger instances required to initialize the Postgres Client. This struct embeds fx.In to enable automatic injection of these dependencies.

Returns:

  • *Postgres: A fully initialized Postgres Client ready for use.

Example usage with fx: 

app := fx.New(
    postgres.FXModule,
    fx.Provide(
        func() postgres.Config {
            return loadPostgresConfig() // Your config loading function
        },
        func() postgres.Logger {
            return initLogger() // Your logger initialization
        },
    ),
)

This function delegates to the standard NewPostgres function, maintaining the same initialization logic while enabling seamless integration with dependency injection.

func (*Postgres) AutoMigrate 

func (p *Postgres) AutoMigrate(models ...interface{}) error

AutoMigrate is a wrapper around GORM's AutoMigrate with additional features. It tracks migrations in the migration history table and provides better error handling.

Parameters:

  • models: The GORM models to auto-migrate

Returns an error if any part of the migration process fails.

This method is useful during development or for simple applications, but for production systems, explicit migrations are recommended.

func (*Postgres) Count 

func (p *Postgres) Count(ctx context.Context, model interface{}, count *int64, conditions ...interface{}) error

Count determines the number of records that match the given conditions. It populates the count parameter with the result.

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for the database operation
  • model: The model type to count
  • count: Pointer to an int64 where the count will be stored
  • conditions: Query conditions to filter the records to count

Returns an error if the query fails or nil on success.

Example: 

var count int64
err := db.Count(ctx, &User{}, &count, "age > ?", 18)

func (*Postgres) Create 

func (p *Postgres) Create(ctx context.Context, value interface{}) error

Create inserts a new record into the database. It processes the value parameter according to GORM conventions, performing hooks and validations defined on the model.

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for the database operation
  • value: The struct or slice of structs to be created

Returns an error if the creation fails or nil on success.

Example: 

user := User{Name: "John", Email: "john@example.com"}

Parameters:

  • migrationsDir: Directory where migration files should be created
  • name: Descriptive name for the migration
  • migrationType: Whether this is a schema or data migration

Returns the base filename of the created migration or an error if creation fails.

Example: 

filename, err := db.CreateMigration("./migrations", "create_users_table", postgres.SchemaType)
if err == nil {
    fmt.Printf("Created migration: %s\n", filename)
}

func (*Postgres) DB 

func (p *Postgres) DB() *gorm.DB

DB returns the underlying GORM DB Client instance. This method provides direct access to the database connection while maintaining thread safety through a read lock.

Use this method when you need to perform operations not covered by the wrapper methods or when you need to access specific GORM functionality. Note that direct usage bypasses some of the safety mechanisms, so use it with care.

func (*Postgres) Delete 

func (p *Postgres) Delete(ctx context.Context, value interface{}, conditions ...interface{}) (int64, error)

Delete removes records that match the given value and conditions from the database. It respects soft delete if implemented on the model.

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for the database operation
  • value: The model to delete or a slice for batch delete
  • conditions: Additional conditions to filter records to delete

Returns:

  • int64: Number of rows affected by the delete operation
  • error: Error if the deletion fails, nil on success

Example: 

// Delete user with ID=1
rowsAffected, err := db.Delete(ctx, &User{}, "id = ?", 1)
if err != nil {
    return err
}
fmt.Printf("Deleted %d rows\n", rowsAffected)

// Or with a model instance
user := User{ID: 1}
rowsAffected, err := db.Delete(ctx, &user)

func (*Postgres) Exec 

func (p *Postgres) Exec(ctx context.Context, sql string, values ...interface{}) (int64, error)

Exec executes raw SQL directly against the database. This is useful for operations not easily expressed through GORM's API or for performance-critical code.

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for the database operation
  • sql: The SQL statement to execute
  • values: Parameters for the SQL statement

Returns:

  • int64: Number of rows affected by the SQL execution
  • error: Error if the execution fails, nil on success

Example: 

rowsAffected, err := db.Exec(ctx, "UPDATE users SET status = ? WHERE last_login < ?",
                             "inactive", time.Now().AddDate(0, -6, 0))
if err != nil {
    return err
}
fmt.Printf("Updated %d users\n", rowsAffected)

func (*Postgres) Find 

func (p *Postgres) Find(ctx context.Context, dest interface{}, conditions ...interface{}) error

var user User
err := db.First(ctx, &user, "email = ?", "user@example.com")

func (*Postgres) GetErrorCategory 

func (p *Postgres) GetErrorCategory(err error) ErrorCategory

GetErrorCategory returns the category of the given error

func (*Postgres) GetMigrationStatus 

func (p *Postgres) GetMigrationStatus(ctx context.Context, migrationsDir string) ([]map[string]interface{}, error)

func (*Postgres) IsTemporary 

func (p *Postgres) IsTemporary(err error) bool

IsTemporary returns true if the error is likely temporary and might resolve itself

func (*Postgres) MigrateDown 

func (p *Postgres) MigrateDown(ctx context.Context, migrationsDir string) error

MigrateDown rolls back the last applied migration. It finds the most recently applied migration and executes its corresponding down migration to revert the changes.

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for database operations
  • migrationsDir: Directory containing the migration SQL files

Returns an error if the rollback fails or if the down migration can't be found.

Example: 

err := db.MigrateDown(ctx, "./migrations")

func (*Postgres) MigrateUp 

func (p *Postgres) MigrateUp(ctx context.Context, migrationsDir string) error

MigrateUp applies all pending migrations from the specified directory. It identifies which migrations haven't been applied yet, sorts them by ID, and applies them in order within transactions.

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for database operations
  • migrationsDir: Directory containing the migration SQL files

Returns an error if any migration fails or if there are issues accessing the migrations.

Example: 

err := db.MigrateUp(ctx, "./migrations")

func (*Postgres) MonitorConnection 

func (p *Postgres) MonitorConnection(ctx context.Context)

MonitorConnection periodically checks the health of the database connection and triggers reconnection attempts when necessary. It runs as a goroutine that performs health checks at regular intervals (10 seconds) and signals the RetryConnection goroutine when a failure is detected.

The function respects context cancellation and shutdown signals, ensuring proper resource cleanup and graceful termination when requested.

func (*Postgres) Query 

func (p *Postgres) Query(ctx context.Context) *QueryBuilder

Query provides a flexible way to build complex queries. It returns a QueryBuilder which can be used to chain query methods in a fluent interface. The method acquires a read lock on the database connection that will be automatically released when a terminal method is called or Done() is invoked.

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for the database operation

Returns a QueryBuilder instance that can be used to construct the query.

Example: 

users := []User{}
err := db.Query(ctx).
    Where("age > ?", 18).
    Order("created_at DESC").
    Limit(10).
    Find(&users)

func (*Postgres) RetryConnection 

func (p *Postgres) RetryConnection(ctx context.Context)

RetryConnection continuously attempts to reconnect to the PostgresSQL database when notified of a connection failure. It operates as a goroutine that waits for signals on retryChanSignal before attempting reconnection. The function respects context cancellation and shutdown signals, ensuring graceful termination when requested.

It implements two nested loops: - The outer loop waits for retry signals - The inner loop attempts reconnection until successful

func (*Postgres) Save 

func (p *Postgres) Save(ctx context.Context, value interface{}) error

Save updates the database record if the primary key exists, otherwise it creates a new record. It performs a full update of all fields, not just changed fields.

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for the database operation
  • value: The struct to be saved

Returns an error if the operation fails or nil on success.

Example: 

user.Name = "Updated Name"
err := db.Save(ctx, &user)

func (*Postgres) Transaction 

func (p *Postgres) Transaction(ctx context.Context, fn func(pg *Postgres) error) error

Transaction executes the given function within a database transaction. It creates a transaction-specific Postgres instance and passes it to the provided function. If the function returns an error, the transaction is rolled back; otherwise, it's committed.

This method provides a clean way to execute multiple database operations as a single atomic unit, with automatic handling of commit/rollback based on the execution result.

Example usage: 

err := pg.Transaction(ctx, func(txPg *Postgres) error {
	if err := txPg.Create(ctx, user); err != nil {
		return err
	}
	return txPg.Create(ctx, userProfile)
})

func (*Postgres) TranslateError 

func (p *Postgres) TranslateError(err error) error

TranslateError converts GORM/database-specific errors into standardized application errors. This function provides abstraction from the underlying database implementation details, allowing application code to handle errors in a database-agnostic way.

It maps common database errors to the standardized error types defined above. If an error doesn't match any known type, it's returned unchanged.

func (*Postgres) Update 

func (p *Postgres) Update(ctx context.Context, model interface{}, attrs interface{}) (int64, error)

Update updates records that match the given model's non-zero fields or primary key. It only updates the fields provided in attrs and only affects records that match the model's primary key or query conditions.

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for the database operation
  • model: The model instance with primary key set, or struct with query conditions
  • attrs: Map, struct, or individual field values to update

Returns:

  • int64: Number of rows affected by the update operation
  • error: Error if the update fails, nil on success

Note: The current implementation has a bug where it executes the query twice. This should be fixed to execute only once and return both values properly.

Example: 

// Update user with ID=1
rowsAffected, err := db.Update(ctx, &User{ID: 1}, map[string]interface{}{
    "name": "New Name",
    "age": 30,
})
if err != nil {
    return err
}
fmt.Printf("Updated %d rows\n", rowsAffected)

func (*Postgres) UpdateColumn 

func (p *Postgres) UpdateColumn(ctx context.Context, model interface{}, columnName string, value interface{}) (int64, error)

UpdateColumn updates a single column's value for records that match the given model. Unlike Update, it doesn't run hooks and can be used to update fields that are zero values (like setting a string to empty or a number to zero).

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for the database operation
  • model: The model instance with primary key set, or struct with query conditions
  • columnName: Name of the column to update
  • value: New value for the column

Returns:

  • int64: Number of rows affected by the update operation
  • error: Error if the update fails, nil on success

Example: 

// Set status to "inactive" for user with ID=1
rowsAffected, err := db.UpdateColumn(ctx, &User{ID: 1}, "status", "inactive")
if err != nil {
    return err
}
fmt.Printf("Updated %d rows\n", rowsAffected)

func (*Postgres) UpdateColumns 

func (p *Postgres) UpdateColumns(ctx context.Context, model interface{}, columnValues map[string]interface{}) (int64, error)

UpdateColumns updates multiple columns with name/value pairs for records that match the given model. Like UpdateColumn, it doesn't run hooks and can update zero-value fields.

Parameters:

  • ctx: Context for the database operation
  • model: The model instance with primary key set, or struct with query conditions
