• Now a Go module under the path github.com/guregu/null/v5
  • ⚠️ Please use this instead of from the former gopkg.in path.
  • Previously this package didn't use modules to support ancient pre-go mod environments, but now module support is required.
• Added missing types from database/sql: Int32, Int16, Byte
• Added generic Value[T] embedding sql.Null[T]
  • Note that zero.Value[T] requires that T is comparable. null.Value[T] supports any value.
  • This doesn't support TextMarshaler because there's no generic way to support all types (e.g. structs). We could support some types but I'm not sure if that's useful.
  • This type requires Go version ≥1.22, on lower versions it won't be present

Behavior from v4 is unchanged, so it should be an easy upgrade.
Thank you and enjoy.
