This repository contains community-maintained Go SDK for Pocketbase API. It's well-tested and used in production in Coinpaprika, but not all endpoints are covered yet.
I'm looking for passionate and dedicated individuals to help maintain this project.
UPDATE: actively maintained fork: https://github.com/pluja/pocketbase
v0.13.0
version of SDK is compatible with Pocketbase v0.13.x and higherv0.12.0
version of SDK is compatible with Pocketbase v0.12.xv0.11.0
version of SDK is compatible with Pocketbase v0.11.xv0.10.1
version of SDK is compatible with Pocketbase v0.10.xv0.9.2
version of SDK is compatible with Pocketbase v0.9.x (SSE & generics support introduced)v0.8.0
version of SDK is compatible with Pocketbase v0.8.xPocketbase is a simple, self-hosted, open-source, no-code, database for your personal data. It's a great alternative to Airtable, Notion, and Google Sheets. Source code is available on GitHub
This SDK doesn't have feature parity with official SDKs and supports the following operations:
Simple list example without authentication (assuming your collections are public):
package main
import (
"log"
"github.com/r--w/pocketbase"
)
func main() {
client := pocketbase.NewClient("http://localhost:8090")
response, err := client.List("posts_public", pocketbase.ParamsList{
Page: 1, Size: 10, Sort: "-created", Filters: "field~'test'",
})
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
log.Print(response.TotalItems)
}
Creating an item with admin user (auth via email/pass).
Please note that you can pass map[string]any
or struct with JSON tags
as a payload:
package main
import (
"log"
"github.com/r--w/pocketbase"
)
func main() {
client := pocketbase.NewClient("http://localhost:8090",
pocketbase.WithAdminEmailPassword("admin@admin.com", "admin@admin.com"))
response, err := client.Create("posts_admin", map[string]any{
"field": "test",
})
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
log.Print(response.ID)
}
For even easier interaction with collection results as user-defined types, you can go with CollectionSet
:
package main
import (
"log"
"github.com/r--w/pocketbase"
)
type post struct {
ID string
Field string
Created string
}
func main() {
client := pocketbase.NewClient("http://localhost:8090")
collection := pocketbase.CollectionSet[post](client, "posts_public")
response, err := collection.List(pocketbase.ParamsList{
Page: 1, Size: 10, Sort: "-created", Filters: "field~'test'",
})
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
log.Printf("%+v", response.Items)
}
Realtime API via Server-Sent Events (SSE) is also supported:
package main
import (
"log"
"github.com/r--w/pocketbase"
)
type post struct {
ID string
Field string
Created string
}
func main() {
client := pocketbase.NewClient("http://localhost:8090")
collection := pocketbase.CollectionSet[post](client, "posts_public")
response, err := collection.List(pocketbase.ParamsList{
Page: 1, Size: 10, Sort: "-created", Filters: "field~'test'",
})
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
stream, err := collection.Subscribe()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
defer stream.Unsubscribe()
<-stream.Ready()
for ev := range stream.Events() {
log.Print(ev.Action, ev.Record)
}
}
