null-extended is a library with reasonable options for dealing with nullable SQL and JSON values
There are two packages: null
and its subpackage zero
.
Types in null
will only be considered null on null input, and will JSON encode to null
. If you need zero and null be considered separate values, use these.
Types in zero
are treated like zero values in Go: blank string input will produce a null zero.String
, and null Strings will JSON encode to ""
. Zero values of these types will be considered null to SQL. If you need zero and null treated the same, use these.
All types implement sql.Scanner
and driver.Valuer
, so you can use this library in place of sql.NullXXX
. All types also implement: encoding.TextMarshaler
, encoding.TextUnmarshaler
, json.Marshaler
, json.Unmarshaler
and sql.Scanner
.
null package
import "gopkg.in/nullbio/null.v5"
null.JSON
Nullable []byte.
Will marshal to JSON null if Invalid. []byte{} input will not produce an Invalid JSON, but []byte(nil) will. This should be used for storing raw JSON in the database.
Also has null.JSON.Marshal
and null.JSON.Unmarshal
helpers to marshal and unmarshal foreign objects.
null.Bytes
Nullable []byte.
Will marshal to JSON null if Invalid. []]byte{} input will not produce an Invalid Bytes, but []byte(nil) will. This should be used for storing binary data (bytea in PSQL for example) in the database.

Marshals to JSON null if SQL source data is null. Zero (blank) input will not produce a null String. Can unmarshal from sql.NullString
JSON input or string input.

zero package
import "gopkg.in/nullbio/null.v5/zero"
zero.JSON

Bugs
json
's ",omitempty"
struct tag does not work correctly right now. It will never omit a null or empty String. This might be fixed eventually.
