You also need to install a database/sql driver and the corresponding Bun dialect.
First you need to create a sql.DB
. Here we are using the
sqliteshim driver which chooses
between modernc.org/sqlite and
mattn/go-sqlite3 depending on your platform.
import "github.com/uptrace/bun/driver/sqliteshim"
sqldb, err := sql.Open(sqliteshim.ShimName, "file::memory:?cache=shared")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
And then create a bun.DB
on top of it using the corresponding SQLite
dialect that comes with Bun:
import (
"github.com/uptrace/bun"
"github.com/uptrace/bun/dialect/sqlitedialect"
)
db := bun.NewDB(sqldb, sqlitedialect.New())
Now you are ready to issue some queries:
type User struct {
ID int64
Name string
}
user := new(User)
err := db.NewSelect().
Model(user).
Where("name != ?", "").
OrderExpr("id ASC").
Limit(1).
Scan(ctx)
The code above is equivalent to:
query := "SELECT id, name FROM users AS user WHERE name != '' ORDER BY id ASC LIMIT 1"
rows, err := sqldb.QueryContext(ctx, query)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
if !rows.Next() {
panic(sql.ErrNoRows)
}
user := new(User)
if err := db.ScanRow(ctx, rows, user); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
if err := rows.Err(); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
To provide initial data for our example, we will use Bun fixtures:
import "github.com/uptrace/bun/dbfixture"
// Register models for the fixture.
db.RegisterModel((*User)(nil), (*Story)(nil))
// WithRecreateTables tells Bun to drop existing tables and create new ones.
fixture := dbfixture.New(db, dbfixture.WithRecreateTables())
// Load fixture.yaml which contains data for User and Story models.
if err := fixture.Load(ctx, os.DirFS("."), "fixture.yaml"); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
The fixture.yaml
looks like this:
- model: User
rows:
- _id: admin
name: admin
emails: ['admin1@admin', 'admin2@admin']
- _id: root
name: root
emails: ['root1@root', 'root2@root']
- model: Story
rows:
- title: Cool story
author_id: '{{ $.User.admin.ID }}'
To select all users:
users := make([]User, 0)
if err := db.NewSelect().Model(&users).OrderExpr("id ASC").Scan(ctx); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
To select a single user by id:
user1 := new(User)
if err := db.NewSelect().Model(user1).Where("id = ?", 1).Scan(ctx); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
To select a story and the associated author in a single query:
story := new(Story)
if err := db.NewSelect().
Model(story).
Relation("Author").
Limit(1).
Scan(ctx); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
To select a user into a map:
m := make(map[string]interface{})
if err := db.NewSelect().
Model((*User)(nil)).
Limit(1).
Scan(ctx, &m); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
To select all users scanning each column into a separate slice:
var ids []int64
var names []string
if err := db.NewSelect().
ColumnExpr("id, name").
Model((*User)(nil)).
OrderExpr("id ASC").
Scan(ctx, &ids, &names); err != nil {
panic(err)
}
