Our great sponsors
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Are there any decent ORMs in Golang?
When I don't use one, I'm typically using SQLx or (if using Postgres) pgx with scany https://github.com/georgysavva/scany (slightly better API than SQLx and great performance since you can use the native interface from pgx if desired whereas many database drivers only offer the text-based interface).

How do you handle scanning of db.Rows?
If you want something like sqlx and you already know you're using pgx, a better choice is probably https://github.com/georgysavva/scany since you can use the native interface and get the same key features.

Does gorm worth learning?
There's also bqb. We use it in production at our company -- much better than raw SQL. If you couple it with something like scany then you get more of the ORM benefits without the complexity.

Setting up a Database Driver, Repository and Implementation of a transaction function for your Go App
Sometimes, backend developers tend to opt for an ORM library because it provides an abstraction between your app and the database and thus there is little or no need to write raw queries and migrations which is nice. However, if you want to get better at writing queries (SQL for example), you need to learn how to build your repositories without an ORM. To open a database handle, you can either do it directly from the database driver or do it from database/sql with the driver passed into it. I will be opening the connection with database/sql together with pgx which is a driver and toolkit for PostgreSQL. Walk with me.

The DDD Hamburger for Go
The infrastructure layer contains the concrete implementation of the repository domain interface ActivityRepository in the struct DbActivityRepository. This repository implementation uses the Postgres driver pgx and plain SQL to store the activity in the database. It uses the database transaction from the context, since the transaction was initiated by the application service.

Building RESTful API with Hexagonal Architecture in Go
For building the RESTful Point of Sale service API, I've considered and selected a combination of technologies that would work seamlessly together. For handling HTTP requests and responses, using the Gin HTTP web framework would make sense because I think it seems complete and popular among Go community too. To ensure data integrity and persistence, I'm using PostgreSQL database with pgx as the database driver, the reason I choose PostgreSQL because it is the most popular relational database to use in production and offers efficient Go integration. I'm also implementing caching using Redis with go-redis client library, which provides powerful in-memory data storage capabilities.

Working with postgres in GO.
If you are willing to commit to working only with Postgres, I highly recommend pgx. Be sure you get the latest version github.com/jackc/pgx/v5. This gives you the full power of interacting with Postgres without going through an intermediate lowest-common-denominator library.

It uses pg package and pgx driver under the hood.

Could I get a code review?
Starting off, is there any reason you're calling out to the CLI, instead of just using a Postgres driver like pgx? Shelling out to the command line should always be a last resort where possible as a software engineer.

Why elixir over Golang
For maintaining state I use PostgreSQL. Driver: https://github.com/jackc/pgx (I use the pgxpools) Along with Sqlc for generating database models and allowing me to focus on just building queries in DBeaver. https://sqlc.dev/

Make psql display settings on login
An example of what I'm looking for can be found here https://github.com/jackc/pgx/wiki/Getting-started-with-pgx-through-database-sql/c9f798b4d9a500fcf93931df2464af969d68f516

Zig now has built-in HTTP server and client in std
Except pgx recommends using their native interface, not database/sql, for performance and extra features [0], so it's not that simple in practice.
