I'm trying to insert a row into a Postgres table using database/sql. The code I'm running looks like
...
res, err := db.Exec("INSERT INTO image(name) VALUES(?);", fname)
if err != nil {
return err
}
...
fname is a string. Something like "image-name.png". The image table was created by the statement
...
_, err := db.Exec("CREATE TABLE image (id SERIAL, name VARCHAR)")
...
After running that CREATE TABLE statement, I'm able to hop into psql and manually run
INSERT INTO image(name) VALUES('some-random-image.jpg');
with the appropriate row being added to the image table. However, the INSERT Exec call above consistently errors with pq: syntax error at or near ")".
Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong here?
Also, as a follow-up, is there any way to see the result of statement formatting in go? I'm thinking of something like func Preview (template string, args...) string such that
Preview("INSERT INTO tbl(col) VALUES(?);", "test")
=> "INSERT INTO tbl(col) VALUES('test');"
