What SQL library are you using?
I usually work with PostgreSQL and have used https://github.com/go-pg/pg. https://github.com/uptrace/bun is its successor.

Clean Transactions in Golang Hexagon
And it is go-pg. I personally really like it as a query builder (rather than an ORM) and it has good performance. It has one feature which I'll tell you about next, without which I would have struggled to implement what I had in mind. But this feature is available in other libraries too, so don't rush to rewrite your code.

bun and go-pg both seem to work fairly well for these kind of purposes.

Connecting with database
For database communication we will use go-pg module. You can install it by running go get github.com/go-pg/pg/v10. This will install version 10 of go-pg module, which is latest version at the time of writing this guide. Now create new directory internal/database/ and file database.go inside of it.

How much do you agree completely switching from Java to Go? I have total 9yrs of experience in Java but now I am interested in Go.
gorm.io/gorm`, or `github.com/go-pg/pg` if you need something more feature-rich. I would avoid using `go-kit` and `go-micro` "frameworks" unless you have some special requirement for it. But you can take a look to have an idea of what Go "framework" may look like.

Authentication system using Golang and Sveltekit - Initialization and setup
Following the completion of the series — Secure and performant full-stack authentication system using rust (actix-web) and sveltekit and Secure and performant full-stack authentication system using Python (Django) and SvelteKit — I felt I should keep the streak by building an equivalent system in PURE go with very minimal external dependencies. We won't use any fancy web framework apart from httprouter and other basic dependencies including a database driver (pq), and redis client. As usual, we'll be using SvelteKit at the front end, favouring JSDoc instead of TypeScript. The combination is ecstatic!

Connect REST API to database with Go
Go’s standard library was not built to include any specific database drivers. So we need to install a third party package. In this case we are going to install https://github.com/lib/pq. Run following command:
-
Getting EOF when connecting to a database using sqlx
For Postgres the driver comes from "github.com/lib/pq" and then it is just "postgres".
-
Is this a proper setup in Go for a postgres api?
With regards to 2. -- also, it looks like there's an important unfixed issue https://github.com/lib/pq/issues/939. I haven't verified whether the issue is up to date.
