5.5.0 (November 4, 2023)
- Add CollectExactlyOneRow. (Julien GOTTELAND)
- Add OpenDBFromPool to create *database/sql.DB from *pgxpool.Pool. (Lev Zakharov)
- Prepare can automatically choose statement name based on sql. This makes it easier to explicitly manage prepared statements.
- Statement cache now uses deterministic, stable statement names.
- database/sql prepared statement names are deterministically generated.
- Fix: SendBatch wasn't respecting context cancellation.
- Fix: Timeout error from pipeline is now normalized.
- Fix: database/sql encoding json.RawMessage to []byte.
- CancelRequest: Wait for the cancel request to be acknowledged by the server. This should improve PgBouncer compatibility. (Anton Levakin)
- stdlib: Use Ping instead of CheckConn in ResetSession
- Add json.Marshaler and json.Unmarshaler for Float4, Float8 (Kirill Mironov)

5.4.1 (June 18, 2023)
- Fix: concurrency bug with pgtypeDefaultMap and simple protocol (Lev Zakharov)
- Add TxOptions.BeginQuery to allow overriding the default BEGIN query
5.4.0 (June 14, 2023)
- Replace platform specific syscalls for non-blocking IO with more traditional goroutines and deadlines. This returns to the v4 approach with some additional improvements and fixes. This restores the ability to use a pgx.Conn over an ssh.Conn as well as other non-TCP or Unix socket connections. In addition, it is a significantly simpler implementation that is less likely to have cross platform issues.
- Optimization: The default type registrations are now shared among all connections. This saves about 100KB of memory per connection.
pgtype.Type
andpgtype.Codec

.
5.1.1 (November 17, 2022)
- Fix simple query sanitizer where query text contains a Unicode replacement character.
- Remove erroneous
name
argument fromDeallocateAll()
. Technically, this is a breaking change, but given that method was only added 5 days ago this change was accepted. (Bodo Kaiser)
5.1.0 (November 12, 2022)
- Update puddle to v2.1.2. This resolves a race condition and a deadlock in pgxpool.
QueryRewriter.RewriteQuery
now returns an error. Technically, this is a breaking change for any external implementers, but given the minimal likelihood that there are actually any external implementers this change was accepted.- Expose
GetSSLPassword
support to pgx. - Fix encode
ErrorResponse
unknown field handling. This would only affect pgproto3 being used directly as a proxy with a non-PostgreSQL server that included additional error fields. - Fix date text format encoding with 5 digit years.
- Fix date values passed to a
sql.Scanner
asstring
instead oftime.Time
. - DateCodec.DecodeValue can return
pgtype.InfinityModifier
instead ofstring
for infinite values. This now matches the behavior of the timestamp types. - Add domain type support to
Conn.LoadType()
. - Add
RowToStructByName
andRowToAddrOfStructByName
. (Pavlo Golub) - Add
Conn.DeallocateAll()
to clear all prepared statements including the statement cache. (Bodo Kaiser)

Merged Packages
github.com/jackc/pgtype
, github.com/jackc/pgconn
, and github.com/jackc/pgproto3
are now included in the main
github.com/jackc/pgx
repository. Previously there was confusion as to where issues should be reported, additional
release work due to releasing multiple packages, and less clear changelogs.
pgconn
CommandTag
is now an opaque type instead of directly exposing an underlying []byte
.
The return value ResultReader.Values()
is no longer safe to retain a reference to after a subsequent call to NextRow()
or Close()
.
Trace()
method adds low level message tracing similar to the PQtrace
function in libpq
.
pgconn now uses non-blocking IO. This is a significant internal restructuring, but it should not cause any visible changes on its own. However, it is important in implementing other new features.
CheckConn()
checks a connection's liveness by doing a non-blocking read. This can be used to detect database restarts or network interruptions without executing a query or a ping.
pgconn now supports pipeline mode.
*PgConn.ReceiveResults
removed. Use pipeline mode instead.
Timeout()
no longer considers context.Canceled
as a timeout error. context.DeadlineExceeded
still is considered a timeout error.
pgxpool
Connect
and ConnectConfig
have been renamed to New
and NewWithConfig
respectively. The LazyConnect
option has been removed. Pools always lazily connect.
pgtype
The pgtype
package has been significantly changed.
NULL Representation
Previously, types had a Status
field that could be Undefined
, Null
, or Present
. This has been changed to a
Valid
bool
field to harmonize with how database/sql
represents NULL
and to make the zero value useable.
Previously, a type that implemented driver.Valuer
would have the Value
method called even on a nil pointer. All nils
whether typed or untyped now represent NULL
.
Codec and Value Split
Previously, the type system combined decoding and encoding values with the value types. e.g. Type Int8
both handled
encoding and decoding the PostgreSQL representation and acted as a value object. This caused some difficulties when
there was not an exact 1 to 1 relationship between the Go types and the PostgreSQL types For example, scanning a
PostgreSQL binary numeric
into a Go float64
was awkward (see https://github.com/jackc/pgtype/issues/147). This
concepts have been separated. A Codec
only has responsibility for encoding and decoding values. Value types are
generally defined by implementing an interface that a particular Codec
understands (e.g. PointScanner
and
PointValuer
for the PostgreSQL point
type).
Array Types
All array types are now handled by ArrayCodec
instead of using code generation for each new array type. This also
means that less common array types such as point[]
are now supported. Array[T]
supports PostgreSQL multi-dimensional
arrays.
Composite Types
Composite types must be registered before use. CompositeFields
may still be used to construct and destruct composite
values, but any type may now implement CompositeIndexGetter
and CompositeIndexScanner
to be used as a composite.
Range Types
Range types are now handled with types RangeCodec
and Range[T]
. This allows additional user defined range types to
easily be handled. Multirange types are handled similarly with MultirangeCodec
and Multirange[T]
.
pgxtype
LoadDataType
moved to *Conn
as LoadType
.
Bytea
The Bytea
and GenericBinary
types have been replaced. Use the following instead:
[]byte
- For normal usage directly use[]byte
.DriverBytes
- Uses driver memory only available until next database method call. Avoids a copy and an allocation.PreallocBytes
- Uses preallocated byte slice to avoid an allocation.UndecodedBytes
- Avoids any decoding. Allows working with raw bytes.
Dropped lib/pq Support
pgtype
previously supported and was tested against lib/pq. While it will continue to work
in most cases this is no longer supported.
database/sql Scan
Previously, most Scan
implementations would convert []byte
to string
automatically to decode a text value. Now
only string
is handled. This is to allow the possibility of future binary support in database/sql
mode by
considering []byte
to be binary format and string
text format. This change should have no effect for any use with
pgx
. The previous behavior was only necessary for lib/pq
compatibility.
Added *Map.SQLScanner
to create a sql.Scanner
for types such as []int32
and Range[T]
that do not implement
sql.Scanner
directly.
Number Type Fields Include Bit size
Int2
, Int4
, Int8
, Float4
, Float8
, and Uint32
fields now include bit size. e.g. Int
is renamed to Int64
.
This matches the convention set by database/sql
. In addition, for comparable types like pgtype.Int8
and
sql.NullInt64
the structures are identical. This means they can be directly converted one to another.
3rd Party Type Integrations
- Extracted integrations with https://github.com/shopspring/decimal and https://github.com/gofrs/uuid to https://github.com/jackc/pgx-shopspring-decimal and https://github.com/jackc/pgx-gofrs-uuid respectively. This trims the pgx dependency tree.
Other Changes
Bit
andVarbit
are both replaced by theBits
type.CID
,OID
,OIDValue
, andXID
are replaced by theUint32
type.Hstore
is now defined asmap[string]*string
.JSON
andJSONB
types removed. Use[]byte
orstring
directly.QChar
type removed. Userune
orbyte
directly.Inet
andCidr
types removed. Usenetip.Addr
andnetip.Prefix
directly. These types are more memory efficient than the previousnet.IPNet
.Macaddr
type removed. Usenet.HardwareAddr
directly.- Renamed
pgtype.ConnInfo
topgtype.Map
. - Renamed
pgtype.DataType
topgtype.Type
. - Renamed
pgtype.None
topgtype.Finite
. RegisterType
now accepts a*Type
instead ofType
.- Assorted array helper methods and types made private.
stdlib
- Removed
AcquireConn
andReleaseConn
as that functionality has been built in since Go 1.13.
Reduced Memory Usage by Reusing Read Buffers
Previously, the connection read buffer would allocate large chunks of memory and never reuse them. This allowed transferring ownership to anything such as scanned values without incurring an additional allocation and memory copy. However, this came at the cost of overall increased memory allocation size. But worse it was also possible to pin large chunks of memory by retaining a reference to a small value that originally came directly from the read buffer. Now ownership remains with the read buffer and anything needing to retain a value must make a copy.
Query Execution Modes
Control over automatic prepared statement caching and simple protocol use are now combined into query execution mode.
See documentation for QueryExecMode
.
QueryRewriter Interface and NamedArgs
pgx now supports named arguments with the NamedArgs
type. This is implemented via the new QueryRewriter
interface which
allows arbitrary rewriting of query SQL and arguments.
RowScanner Interface
The RowScanner
interface allows a single argument to Rows.Scan to scan the entire row.
Rows Result Helpers
CollectRows
andRowTo*
functions simplify collecting results into a slice.CollectOneRow
collects one row usingRowTo*
functions.ForEachRow
simplifies scanning each row and executing code using the scanned values.ForEachRow
replacesQueryFunc
.
Tx Helpers
Rather than every type that implemented Begin
or BeginTx
methods also needing to implement BeginFunc
and
BeginTxFunc
these methods have been converted to functions that take a db that implements Begin
or BeginTx
.
Improved Batch Query Ergonomics
Previously, the code for building a batch went in one place before the call to SendBatch
, and the code for reading the
results went in one place after the call to SendBatch
. This could make it difficult to match up the query and the code
to handle the results. Now Queue
returns a QueuedQuery
which has methods Query
, QueryRow
, and Exec
which can
be used to register a callback function that will handle the result. Callback functions are called automatically when
BatchResults.Close
is called.
SendBatch Uses Pipeline Mode When Appropriate
Previously, a batch with 10 unique parameterized statements executed 100 times would entail 11 network round trips. 1 for each prepare / describe and 1 for executing them all. Now pipeline mode is used to prepare / describe all statements in a single network round trip. So it would only take 2 round trips.
Tracing and Logging
Internal logging support has been replaced with tracing hooks. This allows custom tracing integration with tools like OpenTelemetry. Package tracelog provides an adapter for pgx v4 loggers to act as a tracer.
All integrations with 3rd party loggers have been extracted to separate repositories. This trims the pgx dependency tree.
