## 1.Create ORM Engine
When using xorm, you can create multiple orm engines, an engine means a databse. So you can
```Go
import (
_ "github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql"
"github.com/go-xorm/xorm"
)
engine, err := xorm.NewEngine("mysql", "root:123@/test?charset=utf8")
defer engine.Close()
```
or
```Go
import (
_ "github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3"
"github.com/go-xorm/xorm"
)
engine, err = xorm.NewEngine("sqlite3", "./test.db")
defer engine.Close()
```
You can create many engines for different databases.Generally, you just need create only one engine. Engine supports run on go routines.
xorm supports four drivers now:
* Mysql: [github.com/Go-SQL-Driver/MySQL](https://github.com/Go-SQL-Driver/MySQL)
* MyMysql: [github.com/ziutek/mymysql/godrv](https://github.com/ziutek/mymysql/godrv)
* SQLite: [github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3](https://github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3)
* Postgres: [github.com/lib/pq](https://github.com/lib/pq)
* MsSql: [github.com/lunny/godbc](https://githubcom/lunny/godbc)
NewEngine's parameters are the same as `sql.Open`. So you should read the drivers' document for parameters' usage.
After engine created, you can do some settings.
1.Logs
* `engine.ShowSQL = true`, Show SQL statement on standard output;
* `engine.ShowDebug = true`, Show debug infomation on standard output;
* `engine.ShowError = true`, Show error infomation on standard output;
* `engine.ShowWarn = true`, Show warnning information on standard output;
2.If want to record infomation with another method: use `engine.Logger` as `io.Writer`:
```Go
f, err := os.Create("sql.log")
if err != nil {
println(err.Error())
return
}
engine.Logger = f
```
3.Engine provide DB connection pool settings.
* Use `engine.SetMaxIdleConns()` to set idle connections.
* Use `engine.SetMaxOpenConns()` to set Max connections. This methods support only Go 1.2+.

## 2.Define struct
xorm maps a struct to a database table, the rule is below.
<a name="21" id="21"></a>
### 2.1.name mapping rule
use xorm.IMapper interface to implement. There are two IMapper implemented: `SnakeMapper` and `SameMapper`. SnakeMapper means struct name is word by word and table name or column name as 下划线. SameMapper means same name between struct and table.
SnakeMapper is the default.
```Go
engine.SetMapper(SameMapper{})
```
And you should notice:
* If you want to use other mapping rule, implement IMapper
* Tables's mapping rule could be different from Columns':
```Go
engine.SetTableMapper(SameMapper{})
engine.SetColumnMapper(SnakeMapper{})
```
<a name="22" id="22"></a>
### 2.2.Prefix mapping, Suffix Mapping and Cache Mapping
* `engine.NewPrefixMapper(SnakeMapper{}, "prefix")` can add prefix string when naming based on SnakeMapper or SameMapper, or you custom Mapper.
* `engine.NewPrefixMapper(SnakeMapper{}, "suffix")` can add suffix string when naming based on SnakeMapper or SameMapper, or you custom Mapper.
* `engine.NewCacheMapper(SnakeMapper{})` add naming Mapper for memory cache.
Of course, you can implement IMapper to make custom naming strategy.
<a name="22" id="22"></a>
### 2.3.Tag mapping
It's idealized of using IMapper for all naming. But if table or column is not in rule, we need new method to archive.
* If struct or pointer of struct has `TableName() string` method, the return value will be the struct's table name.
* `engine.Table()` can change the database table name for struct. The struct tag `xorm:"'table_name'"` can set column name for struct field. Use a pair of single quotes to prevent confusion for column's definition in struct tag. If not in confusion, ignore single quotes.
<a name="23" id="23"></a>
### 2.4.Column definition
Struct tag defines something for column as basic sql concepts, such as :
```
type User struct {
Id int64
Name string `xorm:"varchar(25) not null unique 'usr_name'"`
}
```
Data types are different in different DBMS. So xorm makes own data types definition to keep compatible. Details is in document [Column Types](https://github.com/go-xorm/xorm/blob/master/docs/COLUMNTYPE.md).
The following table is field mapping rules, the keyword is not case sensitive except column name
<table>
<tr>
<td>name or 'name'</td><td>Column Name, optional</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>pk</td><td>If column is Primary Key</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>support over 30 kinds of column types, details in [Column Types](https://github.com/go-xorm/xorm/blob/master/docs/COLUMNTYPE.md)</td><td>column type</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>autoincr</td><td>If autoincrement column</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>[not ]null | notnull</td><td>if column could be blank</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>unique/unique(uniquename)</td><td>column is Unique index; if add (uniquename), the column is used for combined unique index with the field that defining same uniquename.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>index/index(indexname)</td><td>column is index. if add (indexname), the column is used for combined index with the field that defining same indexname.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>extends</td><td>use for anonymous field, map the struct in anonymous field to database</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>-</td><td>This field will not be mapping</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>-></td><td>only write into database</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>&lt;-</td><td>only read from database</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>created</td><td>This field will be filled in current time on insert</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>updated</td><td>This field will be filled in current time on insert or update</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>version</td><td>This field will be filled 1 on insert and autoincrement on update</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>default 0 | default 'name'</td><td>column default value</td>
</tr>
</table>
Some default mapping rules
- 1. If field is name of `Id` and type of `int64`, xorm makes it as auto increment primary key. If another field, use struct tag `xorm:"pk"`.
- 2. String is corresponding to varchar(255).
- 3. Support custom type as `type MyString string`slice, map as field type. They are saving as Text column type and json-encode string. Support Blob column type with field type []byte or []uint8.
- 4. You can implement Conversion interface to define your custom mapping rule between field and database data.
```
type Conversion interface {
FromDB([]byte) error
ToDB() ([]byte, error)
}
```

## 3. database meta information
xorm provides methods to getting and setting table schema. For less schema changing production, `engine.Sync()` is enough.
<a name="31" id="31"></a>
## 3.1 retrieve database meta info
* DBMetas()
`engine.DBMetas()` returns all tables schema information.
<a name="31" id="31"></a>
## 3.2.directly table operation
* CreateTables()
`engine.CreateTables(struct)` creates table with struct or struct pointer.
`engine.Charset()` and `engine.StoreEngine()` can change charset or storage engine for **mysql** database.
* IsTableEmpty()
check table is empty or not.
* IsTableExist()
check table is existed or not.
* DropTables()
`engine.DropTables(struct)` drops table and indexes with struct or struct pointer. `engine.DropTables(string)` only drops table except indexes.
<a name="32" id="32"></a>
## 3.3.create indexes and uniques
* CreateIndexes
create indexes with struct.
* CreateUniques
create unique indexes with struct.
<a name="34" id="34"></a>
## 3.4.Synchronize database schema
xorm watches tables and indexes and sync schema:
1) use table name to create or drop table
2) use column name to alter column
3) use the indexes definition in struct field tag to create or drop indexes.
```Go
err := engine.Sync(new(User))
```
<a name="50" id="50"></a>
## 4.Insert data
Inserting records use Insert method.
* Insert one record
```Go
user := new(User)
user.Name = "myname"
affected, err := engine.Insert(user)
```
After inseted, `user.Id` will be filled with primary key column value.
```Go
fmt.Println(user.Id)
```
* Insert multiple records by Slice on one table
```Go
users := make([]User, 0)
users[0].Name = "name0"
...
affected, err := engine.Insert(&users)
```
* Insert multiple records by Slice of pointer on one table
```Go
users := make([]*User, 0)
users[0] = new(User)
users[0].Name = "name0"
...
affected, err := engine.Insert(&users)
```
* Insert one record on two table.
```Go
user := new(User)
user.Name = "myname"
question := new(Question)
question.Content = "whywhywhwy?"
affected, err := engine.Insert(user, question)
```
* Insert multiple records on multiple tables.
```Go
users := make([]User, 0)
users[0].Name = "name0"
...
questions := make([]Question, 0)
questions[0].Content = "whywhywhwy?"
affected, err := engine.Insert(&users, &questions)
```
* Insert one or multple records on multiple tables.
```Go
user := new(User)
user.Name = "myname"
...
questions := make([]Question, 0)
questions[0].Content = "whywhywhwy?"
affected, err := engine.Insert(user, &questions)
```
Notice: If you want to use transaction on inserting, you should use session.Begin() before calling Insert.

## 5. Chainable APIs
<a name="61" id="61"></a>
### 5.1. Chainable APIs for Queries, Execusions and Aggregations
Queries and Aggregations is basically formed by using `Get`, `Find`, `Count` methods, with conjunction of following chainable APIs to form conditions, grouping and ordering:
查询和统计主要使用`Get`, `Find`, `Count`三个方法。在进行查询时可以使用多个方法来形成查询条件,条件函数如下:
* Id([]interface{})
Primary Key lookup
* Where(string, …interface{})
As SQL conditional WHERE clause
* And(string, …interface{})
Conditional AND
* Or(string, …interface{})
Conditional OR
* Sql(string, …interface{})
Custom SQL query
* Asc(…string)
Ascending ordering on 1 or more fields
* Desc(…string)
Descending ordering on 1 or more fields
* OrderBy(string)
As SQL ORDER BY
* In(string, …interface{})
As SQL Conditional IN
* Cols(…string)
Explicity specify query or update columns. e.g.,:
```Go
engine.Cols("age", "name").Find(&users)
// SELECT age, name FROM user
engine.Cols("age", "name").Update(&user)
// UPDATE user SET age=? AND name=?
```
* Omit(...string)
Inverse function to Cols, to exclude specify query or update columns. Warning: Don't use with Cols()
```Go
engine.Omit("age").Update(&user)
// UPDATE user SET name = ? AND department = ?
```
* Distinct(…string)
As SQL DISTINCT
```Go
engine.Distinct("age", "department").Find(&users)
// SELECT DISTINCT age, department FROM user
```
Caution: this method will not lookup from caching store
* Table(nameOrStructPtr interface{})
Specify table name, or if struct pointer is passed into the name is extract from struct type name by IMapper conversion policy
* Limit(int, …int)
As SQL LIMIT with optional second param for OFFSET
* Top(int)
As SQL LIMIT
* Join(type, tableName, criteria string)
As SQL JOIN, support
type: either of these values [INNER, LEFT OUTER, CROSS] are supported now
tableName: joining table name
criteria: join criteria
* GroupBy(string)
As SQL GROUP BY
* Having(string)
As SQL HAVING
<a name="62" id="62"></a>
### 5.2. Override default behavior APIs
* NoAutoTime()
No auto timestamp for Created and Updated fields for INSERT and UPDATE
* NoCache()
Disable cache lookup
* UseBool(...string)
xorm's default behavior is fields with 0, "", nil, false, will not be used during query or update, use this method to explicit specify bool type fields for query or update
* Cascade(bool)
Do cascade lookup for associations
<a name="50" id="50"></a>
### 5.3.Get one record
Fetch a single object by user
```Go
var user = User{Id:27}
has, err := engine.Get(&user)
// or has, err := engine.Id(27).Get(&user)
var user = User{Name:"xlw"}
has, err := engine.Get(&user)
```
<a name="60" id="60"></a>
### 5.4.Find
Fetch multipe objects into a slice or a map, use Find
```Go
var everyone []Userinfo
err := engine.Find(&everyone)
users := make(map[int64]Userinfo)
err := engine.Find(&users)
```
* also you can use Where, Limit
```Go
var allusers []Userinfo
err := engine.Where("id > ?", "3").Limit(10,20).Find(&allusers) //Get id>3 limit 10 offset 20
```
* or you can use a struct query
```Go
var tenusers []Userinfo
err := engine.Limit(10).Find(&tenusers, &Userinfo{Name:"xlw"}) //Get All Name="xlw" limit 10 offset 0
```
* or In function
```Go
var tenusers []Userinfo
err := engine.In("id", 1, 3, 5).Find(&tenusers) //Get All id in (1, 3, 5)
```
* The default will query all columns of a table. Use Cols function if you want to select some columns
```Go
var tenusers []Userinfo
err := engine.Cols("id", "name").Find(&tenusers) //Find only id and name
```
<a name="70" id="70"></a>
### 5.5.Iterate records
Iterate, like find, but handle records one by one
```Go
err := engine.Where("age > ? or name=?)", 30, "xlw").Iterate(new(Userinfo), func(i int, bean interface{})error{
user := bean.(*Userinfo)
//do somthing use i and user
})
```
<a name="66" id="66"></a>
### 5.6.Count method usage
An ORM pointer struct is required for Count method in order to determine which table to retrieve from.
```Go
user := new(User)
total, err := engine.Where("id >?", 1).Count(user)
```
<a name="70" id="70"></a>
## 6.更新数据
更新数据使用`Update`方法Update方法的第一个参数为需要更新的内容可以为一个结构体指针或者一个Map[string]interface{}类型。当传入的为结构体指针时只有非空和0的field才会被作为更新的字段。当传入的为Map类型时key为数据库Column的名字value为要更新的内容。
```Go
user := new(User)
user.Name = "myname"
affected, err := engine.Id(id).Update(user)
```
这里需要注意Update会自动从user结构体中提取非0和非nil得值作为需要更新的内容因此如果需要更新一个值为0则此种方法将无法实现因此有两种选择
1. 通过添加Cols函数指定需要更新结构体中的哪些值未指定的将不更新指定了的即使为0也会更新。
```Go
affected, err := engine.Id(id).Cols("age").Update(&user)
```
2. 通过传入map[string]interface{}来进行更新但这时需要额外指定更新到哪个表因为通过map是无法自动检测更新哪个表的。
```Go
affected, err := engine.Table(new(User)).Id(id).Update(map[string]interface{}{"age":0})
```
### 6.1.乐观锁
要使用乐观锁需要使用version标记
type User struct {
Id int64
Name string
Version int `xorm:"version"`
}
在Insert时version标记的字段将会被设置为1在Update时Update的内容必须包含version原来的值。
```Go
var user User
engine.Id(1).Get(&user)
// SELECT * FROM user WHERE id = ?
engine.Id(1).Update(&user)
// UPDATE user SET ..., version = version + 1 WHERE id = ? AND version = ?
```
<a name="80" id="80"></a>
## 7.Delete one or more records
Delete one or more records
* delete by id
```Go
err := engine.Id(1).Delete(&User{})
```
* delete by other conditions
```Go
err := engine.Delete(&User{Name:"xlw"})
```
<a name="90" id="90"></a>
## 8.Execute SQL query
Of course, SQL execution is also provided.
If select then use Query
```Go
sql := "select * from userinfo"
results, err := engine.Query(sql)
```
<a name="100" id="100"></a>
## 9.Execute SQL command
If insert, update or delete then use Exec
```Go
sql = "update userinfo set username=? where id=?"
res, err := engine.Exec(sql, "xiaolun", 1)
```
<a name="110" id="110"></a>
## 10.Transaction
```Go
session := engine.NewSession()
defer session.Close()
// add Begin() before any action
err := session.Begin()
user1 := Userinfo{Username: "xiaoxiao", Departname: "dev", Alias: "lunny", Created: time.Now()}
_, err = session.Insert(&user1)
if err != nil {
session.Rollback()
return
}
user2 := Userinfo{Username: "yyy"}
_, err = session.Where("id = ?", 2).Update(&user2)
if err != nil {
session.Rollback()
return
}
_, err = session.Exec("delete from userinfo where username = ?", user2.Username)
if err != nil {
session.Rollback()
return
}
// add Commit() after all actions
err = session.Commit()
if err != nil {
return
}
```
<a name="120" id="120"></a>
## 11.Built-in LRU memory cache provider
1. Global Cache
Xorm implements cache support. Defaultly, it's disabled. If enable it, use below code.
```Go
cacher := xorm.NewLRUCacher(xorm.NewMemoryStore(), 1000)
engine.SetDefaultCacher(cacher)
```
If disable some tables' cache, then:
```Go
engine.MapCacher(&user, nil)
```
2. Table's Cache
If only some tables need cache, then:
```Go
cacher := xorm.NewLRUCacher(xorm.NewMemoryStore(), 1000)
engine.MapCacher(&user, cacher)
```
Caution:
1. When use Cols methods on cache enabled, the system still return all the columns.
2. When using Exec method, you should clear cache
```Go
engine.Exec("update user set name = ? where id = ?", "xlw", 1)
engine.ClearCache(new(User))
```
Cache implement theory below:

## 15.FAQ
1.How the xorm tag use both with json?
Use space.
```Go
type User struct {
Name string `json:"name" xorm:"name"`
}
```
