## Install

Requires Go 1.8 or above.

Install with `go get github.com/denisenkom/go-mssqldb` .

## Connection Parameters and DSN

The recommended connection string uses a URL format:
`sqlserver://username:password@host/instance?param1=value&param2=value`
Other supported formats are listed below.

### Common parameters:

* `user id` - enter the SQL Server Authentication user id or the Windows Authentication user id in the DOMAIN\User format. On Windows, if user id is empty or missing Single-Sign-On is used.
* `password`
* `database`
* `connection timeout` - in seconds (default is 30)
* `dial timeout` - in seconds (default is 5)
* `encrypt`
  * `disable` - Data send between client and server is not encrypted.
  * `false` - Data sent between client and server is not encrypted beyond the login packet. (Default)
  * `true` - Data sent between client and server is encrypted.
* `keepAlive` - in seconds; 0 to disable (default is 30)
* `app name` - The application name (default is go-mssqldb)

### Connection parameters for ODBC and ADO style connection strings:

* `server` - host or host\instance (default localhost)
* `port` - used only when there is no instance in server (default 1433)

### Less common parameters:

* `failoverpartner` - host or host\instance (default is no partner). 
* `failoverport` - used only when there is no instance in failoverpartner (default 1433)
* `packet size` - in bytes; 512 to 32767 (default is 4096)
  * Encrypted connections have a maximum packet size of 16383 bytes
  * Further information on usage: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/database-engine/configure-windows/configure-the-network-packet-size-server-configuration-option
* `log` - logging flags (default 0/no logging, 63 for full logging)
  *  1 log errors
  *  2 log messages
  *  4 log rows affected
  *  8 trace sql statements
  * 16 log statement parameters
  * 32 log transaction begin/end
* `TrustServerCertificate`
  * false - Server certificate is checked. Default is false if encypt is specified.
  * true - Server certificate is not checked. Default is true if encrypt is not specified. If trust server certificate is true, driver accepts any certificate presented by the server and any host name in that certificate. In this mode, TLS is susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks. This should be used only for testing.
* `certificate` - The file that contains the public key certificate of the CA that signed the SQL Server certificate. The specified certificate overrides the go platform specific CA certificates.
* `hostNameInCertificate` - Specifies the Common Name (CN) in the server certificate. Default value is the server host.
* `ServerSPN` - The kerberos SPN (Service Principal Name) for the server. Default is MSSQLSvc/host:port.
* `Workstation ID` - The workstation name (default is the host name)
* `ApplicationIntent` - Can be given the value `ReadOnly` to initiate a read-only connection to an Availability Group listener.

### The connection string can be specified in one of three formats:


1. URL: with `sqlserver` scheme. username and password appears before the host. Any instance appears as
    the first segment in the path. All other options are query parameters. Examples:

  * `sqlserver://username:password@host/instance?param1=value&param2=value`
  * `sqlserver://username:password@host:port?param1=value&param2=value`
  * `sqlserver://sa@localhost/SQLExpress?database=master&connection+timeout=30` // `SQLExpress instance.
  * `sqlserver://sa:mypass@localhost?database=master&connection+timeout=30`     // username=sa, password=mypass.
  * `sqlserver://sa:mypass@localhost:1234?database=master&connection+timeout=30"` // port 1234 on localhost.
  * `sqlserver://sa:my%7Bpass@somehost?connection+timeout=30` // password is "my{pass"

  A string of this format can be constructed using the `URL` type in the `net/url` package.

```go
  query := url.Values{}
  query.Add("connection timeout", "30")

  u := &url.URL{
      Scheme:   "sqlserver",
      User:     url.UserPassword(username, password),
      Host:     fmt.Sprintf("%s:%d", hostname, port),
      // Path:  instance, // if connecting to an instance instead of a port
      RawQuery: query.Encode(),
  }
  db, err := sql.Open("sqlserver", u.String())
```

2. ADO: `key=value` pairs separated by `;`. Values may not contain `;`, leading and trailing whitespace is ignored.
     Examples:
	
  * `server=localhost\\SQLExpress;user id=sa;database=master;connection timeout=30`
  * `server=localhost;user id=sa;database=master;connection timeout=30`

3. ODBC: Prefix with `odbc`, `key=value` pairs separated by `;`. Allow `;` by wrapping
    values in `{}`. Examples:
	
  * `odbc:server=localhost\\SQLExpress;user id=sa;database=master;connection timeout=30`
  * `odbc:server=localhost;user id=sa;database=master;connection timeout=30`
  * `odbc:server=localhost;user id=sa;password={foo;bar}` // Value marked with `{}`, password is "foo;bar"
  * `odbc:server=localhost;user id=sa;password={foo{bar}` // Value marked with `{}`, password is "foo{bar"
  * `odbc:server=localhost;user id=sa;password={foobar }` // Value marked with `{}`, password is "foobar "
  * `odbc:server=localhost;user id=sa;password=foo{bar`   // Literal `{`, password is "foo{bar"
  * `odbc:server=localhost;user id=sa;password=foo}bar`   // Literal `}`, password is "foo}bar"
  * `odbc:server=localhost;user id=sa;password={foo{bar}` // Literal `{`, password is "foo{bar"
  * `odbc:server=localhost;user id=sa;password={foo}}bar}` // Escaped `} with `}}`, password is "foo}bar"

## Executing Stored Procedures

To run a stored procedure, set the query text to the procedure name:
```go
var account = "abc"
_, err := db.ExecContext(ctx, "sp_RunMe",
	sql.Named("ID", 123),
	sql.Out{Dest{sql.Named("Account", &account)}
)
```

## Statement Parameters

The `sqlserver` driver uses normal MS SQL Server syntax and expects parameters in
the sql query to be in the form of either `@Name` or `@p1` to `@pN` (ordinal position).

```go
db.QueryContext(ctx, `select * from t where ID = @ID and Name = @p2;`, sql.Named("ID", 6), "Bob")
```

## Features

* Can be used with SQL Server 2005 or newer
* Can be used with Microsoft Azure SQL Database
* Can be used on all go supported platforms (e.g. Linux, Mac OS X and Windows)
* Supports new date/time types: date, time, datetime2, datetimeoffset
* Supports string parameters longer than 8000 characters
* Supports encryption using SSL/TLS
* Supports SQL Server and Windows Authentication
* Supports Single-Sign-On on Windows
* Supports connections to AlwaysOn Availability Group listeners, including re-direction to read-only replicas.
* Supports query notifications

## Tests

`go test` is used for testing. A running instance of MSSQL server is required.
Environment variables are used to pass login information.

Example:

    env SQLSERVER_DSN=sqlserver://user:pass@hostname/instance?database=test1 go test

## Deprecated

These features still exist in the driver, but they are are deprecated.

### Query Parameter Token Replace (driver "mssql")

If you use the driver name "mssql" (rather then "sqlserver" the SQL text
will be loosly parsed and an attempt to extract identifiers using one of

* ?
* ?nnn
* :nnn
* $nnn

will be used. This is not recommended with SQL Server. 
There is at least one existing `won't fix` issue with the query parsing.

Use the native "@Name" parameters instead with the "sqlserver" driver name.

## Known Issues

* SQL Server 2008 and 2008 R2 engine cannot handle login records when SSL encryption is not disabled.
To fix SQL Server 2008 R2 issue, install SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 2.
To fix SQL Server 2008 issue, install Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 3 and Cumulative update package 3 for SQL Server 2008 SP3.
