How to delete records from an SQL database using Go?

To delete records from an SQL database using Go, you can follow the following steps:

Import the necessary packages:

import (
	"database/sql"
	"fmt"
	_ "github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql"
)

Create a function that deletes the records:

func deleteRecords() {
	// Establish a database connection
	db, err := sql.Open("mysql", "root:password@tcp(localhost:3306)/database_name")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err.Error())
	}
	defer db.Close()

	// Prepare the delete statement
	stmt, err := db.Prepare("DELETE FROM table_name WHERE condition")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err.Error())
	}
	defer stmt.Close()

	// Execute the delete statement
	_, err = stmt.Exec()
	if err != nil {
		panic(err.Error())
	}

	fmt.Println("Records deleted successfully")
}

Replace root:password with your database credentials and database_name, table_name, and condition with the appropriate values.

Call the deleteRecords() function when you want to delete records.

Make sure you have the go-sql-driver/mysql package installed by running go get -u github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql. Adjust the package import based on your database provider.

Remember to handle errors appropriately in a production environment.
