-## A higher level `mySQL`:idx: database wrapper. The same interface is

-## A higher level `PostgreSQL`:idx: database wrapper. This interface
-## is implemented for other databases also.

-##
-## Parameter substitution
-## ======================
-##
-## All `db_*` modules support the same form of parameter substitution.
-## That is, using the `?` (question mark) to signify the place where a
-## value should be placed. For example:
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   sql"INSERT INTO myTable (colA, colB, colC) VALUES (?, ?, ?)"
-##   ```
-##
-## **Note**: There are two approaches to parameter substitution support by
-## this module.
-##
-## 1. `SqlQuery` using `?, ?, ?, ...` (same as all the `db_*` modules)
-##
-## 2. `SqlPrepared` using `$1, $2, $3, ...`
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   prepare(db, "myExampleInsert",
-##           sql"""INSERT INTO myTable
-##                 (colA, colB, colC)
-##                 VALUES ($1, $2, $3)""",
-##           3)
-##   ```
-##
-##
-## Unix Socket
-## ===========
-##
-## Using Unix sockets instead of TCP connection can
-## `improve performance up to 30% ~ 175% for some operations <https://momjian.us/main/blogs/pgblog/2012.html#June_6_2012>`_.
-##
-## To use Unix sockets with `db_postgres`, change the server address to the socket file path:
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   import std/db_postgres ## Change "localhost" or "127.0.0.1" to the socket file path
-##   let db = db_postgres.open("/run/postgresql", "user", "password", "database")
-##   echo db.getAllRows(sql"SELECT version();")
-##   db.close()
-##   ```
-##
-## The socket file path is operating system specific and distribution specific,
-## additional configuration may or may not be needed on your `postgresql.conf`.
-## The Postgres server must be on the same computer and only works for Unix-like operating systems.
-##
-##
-## Examples
-## ========
-##
-## Opening a connection to a database
-## ----------------------------------
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   import std/db_postgres
-##   let db = open("localhost", "user", "password", "dbname")
-##   db.close()
-##   ```
-##
-## Creating a table
-## ----------------
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   db.exec(sql"DROP TABLE IF EXISTS myTable")
-##   db.exec(sql("""CREATE TABLE myTable (
-##                    id integer,
-##                    name varchar(50) not null)"""))
-##   ```
-##
-## Inserting data
-## --------------
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   db.exec(sql"INSERT INTO myTable (id, name) VALUES (0, ?)",
-##           "Dominik")

-## A higher level `SQLite`:idx: database wrapper. This interface
-## is implemented for other databases too.
-##
-## Basic usage
-## ===========
-##
-## The basic flow of using this module is:
-##
-## 1. Open database connection
-## 2. Execute SQL query
-## 3. Close database connection
-##
-## Parameter substitution
-## ----------------------
-##
-## All `db_*` modules support the same form of parameter substitution.
-## That is, using the `?` (question mark) to signify the place where a
-## value should be placed. For example:
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   sql"INSERT INTO my_table (colA, colB, colC) VALUES (?, ?, ?)"
-##   ```
-##
-## Opening a connection to a database
-## ----------------------------------
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   import std/db_sqlite
-##
-##   # user, password, database name can be empty.
-##   # These params are not used on db_sqlite module.
-##   let db = open("mytest.db", "", "", "")
-##   db.close()
-##   ```
-##
-## Creating a table
-## ----------------
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   db.exec(sql"DROP TABLE IF EXISTS my_table")
-##   db.exec(sql"""CREATE TABLE my_table (
-##                    id   INTEGER,
-##                    name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL
-##                 )""")
-##   ```
-##
-## Inserting data
-## --------------
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   db.exec(sql"INSERT INTO my_table (id, name) VALUES (0, ?)",
-##           "Jack")
-##   ```
-##
-## Larger example
-## --------------
-##
-##   ```Nim
-##   import std/[db_sqlite, math]
-##
-##   let db = open("mytest.db", "", "", "")
-##
-##   db.exec(sql"DROP TABLE IF EXISTS my_table")
-##   db.exec(sql"""CREATE TABLE my_table (
-##                    id    INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
-##                    name  VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
-##                    i     INT(11),
-##                    f     DECIMAL(18, 10)
-##                 )""")
-##
-##   db.exec(sql"BEGIN")
-##   for i in 1..1000:
-##     db.exec(sql"INSERT INTO my_table (name, i, f) VALUES (?, ?, ?)",
-##             "Item#" & $i, i, sqrt(i.float))
-##   db.exec(sql"COMMIT")
-##
-##   for x in db.fastRows(sql"SELECT * FROM my_table"):
-##     echo x
-##
-##   let id = db.tryInsertId(sql"""INSERT INTO my_table (name, i, f)
-##                                 VALUES (?, ?, ?)""",
-##                           "Item#1001", 1001, sqrt(1001.0))
-##   echo "Inserted item: ", db.getValue(sql"SELECT name FROM my_table WHERE id=?", id)
-##
-##   db.close()
-##   ```
-##
-## Storing binary data example
-##----------------------------
-##
-##   ```nim
-##   import std/random
-##
-##   ## Generate random float datas
-##   var orig = newSeq[float64](150)
-##   randomize()
-##   for x in orig.mitems:
-##     x = rand(1.0)/10.0
-##
-##   let db = open("mysqlite.db", "", "", "")
-##   block: ## Create database
-##     ## Binary datas needs to be of type BLOB in SQLite
-##     let createTableStr = sql"""CREATE TABLE test(
-##       id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
-##       data BLOB
-##     )
-##     """
-##     db.exec(createTableStr)
-##
-##   block: ## Insert data
-##     var id = 1
-##     ## Data needs to be converted to seq[byte] to be interpreted as binary by bindParams
-##     var dbuf = newSeq[byte](orig.len*sizeof(float64))
-##     copyMem(unsafeAddr(dbuf[0]), unsafeAddr(orig[0]), dbuf.len)
-##
-##     ## Use prepared statement to insert binary data into database
-##     var insertStmt = db.prepare("INSERT INTO test (id, data) VALUES (?, ?)")
-##     insertStmt.bindParams(id, dbuf)
-##     let bres = db.tryExec(insertStmt)
-##     ## Check insert
-##     doAssert(bres)
-##     # Destroy statement
-##     finalize(insertStmt)
-##
-##   block: ## Use getValue to select data
-##     var dataTest = db.getValue(sql"SELECT data FROM test WHERE id = ?", 1)
-##     ## Calculate sequence size from buffer size
-##     let seqSize = int(dataTest.len*sizeof(byte)/sizeof(float64))
-##     ## Copy binary string data in dataTest into a seq
-##     var res: seq[float64] = newSeq[float64](seqSize)
-##     copyMem(unsafeAddr(res[0]), addr(dataTest[0]), dataTest.len)
-##
-##     ## Check datas obtained is identical
-##     doAssert res == orig
-##
-##   db.close()
-##   ```
-##
-##
-## Note
-## ====
-## This module does not implement any ORM features such as mapping the types from the schema.
-## Instead, a `seq[string]` is returned for each row.
-##
-## The reasoning is as follows:
-## 1. it's close to what many DBs offer natively (`char**`:c:)
-## 2. it hides the number of types that the DB supports
-##    (int? int64? decimal up to 10 places? geo coords?)
-## 3. it's convenient when all you do is to forward the data to somewhere else (echo, log, put the data into a new query)
