Installation

go-pg supports 2 last Go versions and requires a Go version with modules support. So make sure to initialize a Go module:

go mod init github.com/my/repo

And then install go-pg (note v10 in the import; omitting it is a popular mistake):

go get github.com/go-pg/pg/v10

Quickstart

package pg_test

import (
    "fmt"

    "github.com/go-pg/pg/v10"
    "github.com/go-pg/pg/v10/orm"
)

type User struct {
    Id     int64
    Name   string
    Emails []string
}

func (u User) String() string {
    return fmt.Sprintf("User<%d %s %v>", u.Id, u.Name, u.Emails)
}

type Story struct {
    Id       int64
    Title    string
    AuthorId int64
    Author   *User `pg:"rel:has-one"`
}

func (s Story) String() string {
    return fmt.Sprintf("Story<%d %s %s>", s.Id, s.Title, s.Author)
}

    // [User<1 admin [admin1@admin admin2@admin]> User<2 root [root1@root root2@root]>]
