To trace SQL calls to PostgreSQL or MySQL, replacing sql.Open calls to xray.SQLContext, as shown in the following example. Use URLs instead of configuration strings if possible.

Example main.go
func main() {
  db, err := xray.SQLContext("postgres", "postgres://user:password@host:port/db")
  row, err := db.QueryRowContext(ctx, "SELECT 1") // Use as normal
}
