Jack Christensen 85136a8efe Restore pgx v4 style CopyFrom implementation
This approach uses an extra goroutine to write while the main goroutine
continues to read. This avoids the need to use non-blocking I/O.

pgconn

Package pgconn is a low-level PostgreSQL database driver. It operates at nearly the same level as the C library libpq. It is primarily intended to serve as the foundation for higher level libraries such as https://github.com/jackc/pgx. Applications should handle normal queries with a higher level library and only use pgconn directly when required for low-level access to PostgreSQL functionality.

Example Usage

pgConn, err := pgconn.Connect(context.Background(), os.Getenv("DATABASE_URL"))
if err != nil {
	log.Fatalln("pgconn failed to connect:", err)
}
defer pgConn.Close(context.Background())

result := pgConn.ExecParams(context.Background(), "SELECT email FROM users WHERE id=$1", [][]byte{[]byte("123")}, nil, nil, nil)
for result.NextRow() {
	fmt.Println("User 123 has email:", string(result.Values()[0]))
}
_, err = result.Close()
if err != nil {
	log.Fatalln("failed reading result:", err)
}
