# 🚀 GocqlX [![GoDoc](https://pkg.go.dev/badge/github.com/scylladb/gocqlx/v3.svg)](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/scylladb/gocqlx/v3) [![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/scylladb/gocqlx)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/scylladb/gocqlx) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/scylladb/gocqlx.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/scylladb/gocqlx)

GocqlX makes working with Scylla easy and less error-prone.
It’s inspired by [Sqlx](https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx), a tool for working with SQL databases, but it goes beyond what Sqlx provides.

## Features

* Binding query parameters from struct fields, map, or both
* Scanning query results into structs based on field names
* Convenient functions for common tasks such as loading a single row into a struct or all rows into a slice (list) of structs
* Making any struct a UDT without implementing marshalling functions
* GocqlX is fast. Its performance is comparable to raw driver. You can find some benchmarks [here](#performance).

Subpackages provide additional functionality:

* CQL query builder ([package qb](https://github.com/scylladb/gocqlx/blob/master/qb))
* CRUD operations based on table model ([package table](https://github.com/scylladb/gocqlx/blob/master/table))
* Database migrations ([package migrate](https://github.com/scylladb/gocqlx/blob/master/migrate))

## Installation

```bash
git clone [email protected]:scylladb/gocqlx.git
cd gocqlx/cmd/schemagen/
go install .
```

## Getting started

Wrap gocql Session:

```go
// Create gocql cluster.
cluster := gocql.NewCluster(hosts...)
// Wrap session on creation, gocqlx session embeds gocql.Session pointer.
session, err := gocqlx.WrapSession(cluster.CreateSession())
if err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
```

Specify table model:

```go
// metadata specifies table name and columns it must be in sync with schema.
var personMetadata = table.Metadata{
Name: "person",
Columns: []string{"first_name", "last_name", "email"},
PartKey: []string{"first_name"},
SortKey: []string{"last_name"},
}

// personTable allows for simple CRUD operations based on personMetadata.
var personTable = table.New(personMetadata)

// Person represents a row in person table.
// Field names are converted to snake case by default, no need to add special tags.
// A field will not be persisted by adding the `db:"-"` tag or making it unexported.
type Person struct {
FirstName string
LastName string
Email []string
HairColor string `db:"-"` // exported and skipped
eyeColor string // unexported also skipped
}
```

Bind data from a struct and insert a row:

```go
p := Person{
"Michał",
"Matczuk",
[]string{"[email protected]"},
"red", // not persisted
"hazel" // not persisted
}
q := session.Query(personTable.Insert()).BindStruct(p)
if err := q.ExecRelease(); err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
```

Load a single row to a struct:

```go
p := Person{
"Michał",
"Matczuk",
nil, // no email
}
q := session.Query(personTable.Get()).BindStruct(p)
if err := q.GetRelease(&p); err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
t.Log(p)
// stdout: {MichaÅ‚ Matczuk [[email protected]]}
```

Load all rows in to a slice:

```go
var people []Person
q := session.Query(personTable.Select()).BindMap(qb.M{"first_name": "Michał"})
if err := q.SelectRelease(&people); err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
t.Log(people)
// stdout: [{MichaÅ‚ Matczuk [[email protected]]}]
```

## Generating table metadata with schemagen

Installation

```bash
go get -u "github.com/scylladb/gocqlx/v3/cmd/schemagen"
```

Usage:
```bash
schemagen [flags]

Flags:
-cluster string
a comma-separated list of host:port tuples (default "127.0.0.1")
-keyspace string
keyspace to inspect (required)
-output string
the name of the folder to output to (default "models")
-pkgname string
the name you wish to assign to your generated package (default "models")
```

Example:

Running the following command for `examples` keyspace:
```bash
schemagen -cluster="127.0.0.1:9042" -keyspace="examples" -output="models" -pkgname="models"
```

Generates `models/models.go` as follows:
```go
// Code generated by "gocqlx/cmd/schemagen"; DO NOT EDIT.

package models

import "github.com/scylladb/gocqlx/v3/table"

// Table models.
var (
Playlists = table.New(table.Metadata{
Name: "playlists",
Columns: []string{
"album",
"artist",
"id",
"song_id",
"title",
},
PartKey: []string{
"id",
},
SortKey: []string{
"title",
"album",
"artist",
},
})

Songs = table.New(table.Metadata{
Name: "songs",
Columns: []string{
"album",
"artist",
"data",
"id",
"tags",
"title",
},
PartKey: []string{
"id",
},
SortKey: []string{},
})
)
```

## Examples

You can find lots of examples in [example_test.go](https://github.com/scylladb/gocqlx/blob/master/example_test.go).

Go and run them locally:

```bash
make run-scylla
make run-examples
```

## Training

The course [Using Scylla Drivers](https://university.scylladb.com/courses/using-scylla-drivers) in Scylla University explains how to use drivers in different languages to interact with a Scylla cluster. The lesson, [Golang and Scylla Part 3 - GoCQLX](https://university.scylladb.com/courses/using-scylla-drivers/lessons/golang-and-scylla-part-3-gocqlx/), goes over a sample application that, using GoCQLX, interacts with a three-node Scylla cluster. It connects to a Scylla cluster, displays the contents of a table, inserts and deletes data, and shows the contents of the table after each action. [Scylla University](https://university.scylladb.com/) includes other training material and online courses which will help you become a Scylla NoSQL database expert.

## Performance

GocqlX performance is comparable to the raw `gocql` driver.
Below benchmark results running on my laptop.
