The following code examples show how to use data modification statements.

Procedure for Updates

You can use Exec to execute data modification statements. Exec returns a Result value which contains the number of affected rows.

INSERT

To insert updates:

result, _ := db.Exec("INSERT INTO Categories (Name) VALUES ('My goldfish')")
affected, _ := result.RowsAffected()

UPDATE

To retrieve updates:

result, _ := db.Exec("UPDATE Categories SET Name = 'My goldfish' WHERE Id = '1668776136772254'")
affected, _ := result.RowsAffected()

DELETE

To delete updates:

result, _ := db.Exec("DELETE FROM Categories WHERE Id = '25'")
affected, _ := result.RowsAffected()
