## Install
go get github.com/lib/pq
## Features
* SSL
* Handles bad connections for `database/sql`
* Scan `time.Time` correctly (i.e. `timestamp[tz]`, `time[tz]`, `date`)
* Scan binary blobs correctly (i.e. `bytea`)
* Package for `hstore` support
* COPY FROM support
* pq.ParseURL for converting urls to connection strings for sql.Open.
* Many libpq compatible environment variables

## Tests
`go test` is used for testing. See [TESTS.md](TESTS.md) for more details.
## Status
This package is effectively in maintenance mode and is not actively developed. Small patches and features are only rarely reviewed and merged. We recommend using [pgx](https://github.com/jackc/pgx) which is actively maintained.
