Caveat on using OrientGo as a database/sql API driver
WARNING: database/sql API is disabled for now.
The golang database/sql
API has some constraints that can be make it painful to work with OrientDB. For example:
- When you insert a record, the Go
database/sql
API only allows one to return a single int64 identifier for the record, but OrientDB uses as a compound int16:int64 RID, so getting the RID of records you just inserted requires another round trip to the database to query the RID.
Also, since OrientDB transactions are not supported, the Tx
portion of the database/sql
API is not yet implemented.
