OmniQL requires the : prefix for all queries. If you need to execute native database commands directly, use your driver alongside OmniQL.

​
Pattern

OmniQL wraps your connection but doesn’t replace it. Keep both references. 
// Keep both
db, _ := sql.Open("postgres", connString)  // Native driver
client := oql.WrapSQL(db, "PostgreSQL")    // OmniQL wrapper

// OmniQL
users, _ := client.Query(":GET User WHERE active = true")

// Native
rows, _ := db.Query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE active = true")

​
PostgreSQL / MySQL

db, _ := sql.Open("postgres", "postgres://localhost/mydb")
client := oql.WrapSQL(db, "PostgreSQL")

// OmniQL
client.Query(":GET User WHERE age > 21")

// Native
db.Query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE age > 21")
db.Exec("VACUUM ANALYZE users")

​
MongoDB

mongoClient, _ := mongo.Connect(ctx, options.Client().ApplyURI("mongodb://localhost:27017"))
db := mongoClient.Database("mydb")
client := oql.WrapMongo(db)

// OmniQL
client.Query(":GET User WHERE age > 21")

// Native
db.Collection("users").Find(ctx, bson.M{"age": bson.M{"$gt": 21}})
db.RunCommand(ctx, bson.D{{"ping", 1}})

​
Redis

rdb := redis.NewClient(&redis.Options{Addr: "localhost:6379"})
client := oql.WrapRedis(rdb, "")

// OmniQL
client.Query(":GET User WHERE id = 42")

// Native
rdb.HGetAll(ctx, "user:42")
rdb.Ping(ctx)
