This package provides wrapper types for converting various go types to and
from their postgresql representation via the standard database/sql
interfaces.
The original implementation of these types came from the github.com/lib/pq
package,
which you can still use to gain access to these types. The reason to use ethanpailes/pgtypes
instead is that lib/pq
is that lib/pq
is no longer maintained and bundles an
entire postgres driver. ethanpailes/pgtypes
just provides the conversion types.

changes is held by Ethan Pailes and ethanpailes/pgtypes
contributors under the
