unicode

Overview ¶

Package unicode provides an alternative to the SQLite ICU extension.

Like the ICU extension, it provides Unicode aware:

• upper() and lower() functions,
• LIKE and REGEXP operators,
• collation sequences.

The implementation is not 100% compatible with the ICU extension:

• upper() and lower() use strings.ToUpper, strings.ToLower and cases;
• the LIKE operator follows strings.EqualFold rules;
• the REGEXP operator uses Go regexp/syntax;
• collation sequences use collate.

Expect subtle differences (e.g.) in the handling of Turkish case folding.
