This guide demonstrates how to use the Xray library to inspect and execute queries in a Snowflake database in a Go application.
-
Define Snowflake Configuration
Add your Snowflake database configuration to your Go application:
Note : Set env variable DB_Password for adding password and pass your password as :
export DB_PASSWORD=your_password
config := &config.Config{ Account: "account", // Replace with your Snowflake account name Username: "Username", // Replace with your Snowflake username Database: "DatabaseName", // Replace with your Snowflake database name Port: "443", // Snowflake port (default is 443) Warehouse: "Warehouse_name", // Replace with your Snowflake warehouse name Schema: "Schema", // Optional: Replace with your Snowflake schema name if applicable }
-
Connect to Snowflake Database
Create a new Xray client and connect to the Snowflake database:
```go client, err := xray.NewClientWithConfig(config, types.Snowflake) if err != nil { panic(err) } fmt.Println("Connected to database")
-
Retrieve Tables and Schema
Retrieve a list of tables in the database and print their schemas:
```go data, err := client.Tables(config.Database) if err != nil { panic(err) } fmt.Println("Tables :", data) var response []types.Table for _, v := range data { table, err := client.Schema(v) if err != nil { panic(err) } response = append(response, table) } fmt.Println(response) ```
-
Generate Create Table Query
generate and print SQL CREATE TABLE queries for each table in the response slice.
// Iterate over each table in the response slice. for _, v := range response { // Generate a CREATE TABLE query for the current table. query := client.GenerateCreateTableQuery(v) // Print the generated query. fmt.Println(query) }
-
Execute Queries
Execute queries against your snowflake database:
```go query := "SELECT * FROM database_name.schema_name.my_table" // Specify your SQL query result, err := client.Execute(query) if err != nil { fmt.Printf("Error executing query: %v\n", err) return } fmt.Printf("Query result: %s\n", string(result))
You can also set Snowflake configurations using environment variables. For example:
```
export SNOWFLAKE_ACCOUNT=account
export SNOWFLAKE_USERNAME=username
export SNOWFLAKE_PASSWORD=password
export SNOWFLAKE_DATABASE=database
export SNOWFLAKE_WAREHOUSE=warehouse
```
After configuring your Snowflake settings, run the following commands to execute the application:
```
go mod tidy
go run main.go
```
That's it! You should now be able to inspect and execute queries in your Snowflake database using Xray in your Go application.
