go-pg is a Go ORM and PostgreSQL client focused on PostgreSQL-specific features like b, hstore, and arrays, with strong performance. It is now in maintenance mode receiving only critical fixes, with new development moved to the Bun ORM.

Use cases

map Go structs to PostgreSQL tables
query PostgreSQL with b and hstore columns
build a Go backend with a PostgreSQL ORM
run efficient bulk inserts and selects in Go
manage relations and joins between Go models

When to choose

maintaining an existing Go codebase already built on go-pg
you need PostgreSQL-specific types like arrays, hstore, or b in a legacy stack

When to avoid

starting a new Go project - use Bun instead
you need multi-database support like MySQL or SQLite
you expect new features or active community development
