Method TypeForValue

pgtype/pgtype.go:330–341

TypeForValue finds a data type suitable for v. Use [Map.RegisterType] to register types that can encode and decode themselves. Use [Map.RegisterDefaultPgType] to register that can be handled by a registered data type. The returned [Type] must not be mutated.

(v any)

// themselves. Use [Map.RegisterDefaultPgType] to register that can be handled by a registered data type.  The returned [Type]
// must not be mutated.
func (m *Map) TypeForValue(v any) (*Type, bool) {
	if m.reflectTypeToType == nil {
		m.buildReflectTypeToType()
	}

	if dt, ok := m.reflectTypeToType[reflect.TypeOf(v)]; ok {
		return dt, true
	}

	dt, ok := defaultMap.reflectTypeToType[reflect.TypeOf(v)]
	return dt, ok
}

// FormatCodeForOID returns the preferred format code for type oid. If the type is not registered it returns the text
// format code.
