+title: SQL
+description: Bun provides native bindings for working with SQL databases through a unified Promise-based API that supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite.
+---
+
+The interface is designed to be simple and performant, using tagged template literals for queries and offering features like connection pooling, transactions, and prepared statements.
+
+```ts title="db.ts" icon="/icons/typescript.svg"
+import { sql, SQL } from "bun";
+
+// PostgreSQL (default)
+const users = await sql`
+  SELECT * FROM users
+  WHERE active = ${true}
+  LIMIT ${10}
+`;
+
+// With MySQL
+const mysql = new SQL("mysql://user:pass@localhost:3306/mydb");
+const mysqlResults = await mysql`
+  SELECT * FROM users 
+  WHERE active = ${true}
+`;
+
+// With SQLite
+const sqlite = new SQL("sqlite://myapp.db");
+const sqliteResults = await sqlite`
+  SELECT * FROM users 
+  WHERE active = ${1}
+`;
+```
+

+
+---
+
+## Database Support
+
+`Bun.SQL` provides a unified API for multiple database systems:
+
+### PostgreSQL
+
+PostgreSQL is used when:
+
+- The connection string doesn't match SQLite or MySQL patterns (it's the fallback adapter)
+- The connection string explicitly uses `postgres://` or `postgresql://` protocols
+- No connection string is provided and environment variables point to PostgreSQL
+
+```ts title="db.ts" icon="/icons/typescript.svg"
+import { sql } from "bun";
+// Uses PostgreSQL if DATABASE_URL is not set or is a PostgreSQL URL
+await sql`SELECT ...`;
+
+import { SQL } from "bun";
+const pg = new SQL("postgres://user:pass@localhost:5432/mydb");
+await pg`SELECT ...`;
+```
+
+### MySQL
+
+MySQL support is built into Bun.SQL, providing the same tagged template literal interface with full compatibility for MySQL 5.7+ and MySQL 8.0+:
+
+```ts title="db.ts" icon="/icons/typescript.svg"
+import { SQL } from "bun";
+
+// MySQL connection
+const mysql = new SQL("mysql://user:password@localhost:3306/database");
+const mysql2 = new SQL("mysql2://user:password@localhost:3306/database"); // mysql2 protocol also works
+
+// Using options object
+const mysql3 = new SQL({
+  adapter: "mysql",
+  hostname: "localhost",
+  port: 3306,
+  database: "myapp",
+  username: "dbuser",
+  password: "secretpass",
+});
+
+// Works with parameters - automatically uses prepared statements
+const users = await mysql`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ${userId}`;
+
+// Transactions work the same as PostgreSQL
+await mysql.begin(async tx => {
+  await tx`INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES (${"Alice"})`;
+  await tx`UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance - 100 WHERE user_id = ${userId}`;
+});
+
+// Bulk inserts
+const newUsers = [
+  { name: "Alice", email: "alice@example.com" },
+  { name: "Bob", email: "bob@example.com" },
+];
+await mysql`INSERT INTO users ${mysql(newUsers)}`;
+```
+
+<Accordion title="MySQL Connection String Formats">
+
+MySQL accepts various URL formats for connection strings:
+
+```ts
+// Standard mysql:// protocol
+new SQL("mysql://user:pass@localhost:3306/database");
+new SQL("mysql://user:pass@localhost/database"); // Default port 3306
+
+// mysql2:// protocol (compatibility with mysql2 npm package)
+new SQL("mysql2://user:pass@localhost:3306/database");
+
+// With query parameters
+new SQL("mysql://user:pass@localhost/db?ssl=true");
+
+// Unix socket connection
+new SQL("mysql://user:pass@/database?socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock");
+```
+
+</Accordion>
+
+<Accordion title="MySQL-Specific Features">
+
+MySQL databases support:
+
+- **Prepared statements**: Automatically created for parameterized queries with statement caching
+- **Binary protocol**: For better performance with prepared statements and accurate type handling
+- **Multiple result sets**: Support for stored procedures returning multiple result sets
+- **Authentication plugins**: Support for mysql_native_password, caching_sha2_password (MySQL 8.0 default), and sha256_password
+- **SSL/TLS connections**: Configurable SSL modes similar to PostgreSQL
+- **Connection attributes**: Client information sent to server for monitoring
+- **Query pipelining**: Execute multiple prepared statements without waiting for responses
+
+</Accordion>
+
+### SQLite
+
+SQLite support is built into Bun.SQL, providing the same tagged template literal interface:
+
+```ts
+import { SQL } from "bun";
+
+// In-memory database
+const memory = new SQL(":memory:");
+const memory2 = new SQL("sqlite://:memory:");
+
+// File-based database
+const sql1 = new SQL("sqlite://myapp.db");
+
+// Using options object
+const sql2 = new SQL({
+  adapter: "sqlite",
+  filename: "./data/app.db",
+});
+
+// For simple filenames, specify adapter explicitly
+const sql3 = new SQL("myapp.db", { adapter: "sqlite" });
+```
+
+<Accordion title="SQLite Connection String Formats">
+
+SQLite accepts various URL formats for connection strings:
+
+```ts
+// Standard sqlite:// protocol
+new SQL("sqlite://path/to/database.db");
+new SQL("sqlite:path/to/database.db"); // Without slashes
+
+// file:// protocol (also recognized as SQLite)
+new SQL("file://path/to/database.db");
+new SQL("file:path/to/database.db");
+
+// Special :memory: database
+new SQL(":memory:");
+new SQL("sqlite://:memory:");
+new SQL("file://:memory:");
+
+// Relative and absolute paths
+new SQL("sqlite://./local.db"); // Relative to current directory
+new SQL("sqlite://../parent/db.db"); // Parent directory
+new SQL("sqlite:///absolute/path.db"); // Absolute path
+
+// With query parameters
+new SQL("sqlite://data.db?mode=ro"); // Read-only mode
+new SQL("sqlite://data.db?mode=rw"); // Read-write mode (no create)
+new SQL("sqlite://data.db?mode=rwc"); // Read-write-create mode (default)
+```
+
+    <Note>
+    Simple filenames without a protocol (like `"myapp.db"`) require explicitly specifying `{ adapter: "sqlite" }` to avoid ambiguity with PostgreSQL.
+    </Note>
+
+</Accordion>
+
+<Accordion title="SQLite-Specific Options">
+
+SQLite databases support additional configuration options:
+
+```ts
+const sql = new SQL({
+  adapter: "sqlite",
+  filename: "app.db",
+
+  // SQLite-specific options
+  readonly: false, // Open in read-only mode
+  create: true, // Create database if it doesn't exist
+  readwrite: true, // Open for reading and writing
+
+  // Additional Bun:sqlite options
+  strict: true, // Enable strict mode
+  safeIntegers: false, // Use JavaScript numbers for integers
+});
+```
+
+Query parameters in the URL are parsed to set these options:
+
+- `?mode=ro` → `readonly: true`
+- `?mode=rw` → `readonly: false, create: false`
+- `?mode=rwc` → `readonly: false, create: true` (default)
+
+</Accordion>
+
+## Inserting data
+
+You can pass JavaScript values directly to the SQL template literal and escaping will be handled for you.
+
+```ts
+import { sql } from "bun";
+
+// Basic insert with direct values
+const [user] = await sql`
+  INSERT INTO users (name, email) 
+  VALUES (${name}, ${email})
+  RETURNING *
+`;
+
+// Using object helper for cleaner syntax
+const userData = {
+  name: "Alice",
+  email: "alice@example.com",
+};
+
+const [newUser] = await sql`
+  INSERT INTO users ${sql(userData)}
+  RETURNING *
+`;
+// Expands to: INSERT INTO users (name, email) VALUES ('Alice', 'alice@example.com')
+```
+
+### Bulk Insert
+
+You can also pass arrays of objects to the SQL template literal and it will be expanded to a `INSERT INTO ... VALUES ...` statement.
+
+```ts
+const users = [
+  { name: "Alice", email: "alice@example.com" },
+  { name: "Bob", email: "bob@example.com" },
+  { name: "Charlie", email: "charlie@example.com" },
+];
+
+await sql`INSERT INTO users ${sql(users)}`;
+```
+
+### Picking columns to insert
+
+You can use `sql(object, ...string)` to pick which columns to insert. Each of the columns must be defined on the object.
+
+```ts
+const user = {
+  name: "Alice",
+  email: "alice@example.com",
+  age: 25,
+};
+
+await sql`INSERT INTO users ${sql(user, "name", "email")}`;
+// Only inserts name and email columns, ignoring other fields
+```
+
+---
+
+## Query Results
+
+By default, Bun's SQL client returns query results as arrays of objects, where each object represents a row with column names as keys. However, there are cases where you might want the data in a different format. The client provides two additional methods for this purpose.
+
+### `sql``.values()` format
+
+The `sql``.values()` method returns rows as arrays of values rather than objects. Each row becomes an array where the values are in the same order as the columns in your query.
+
+```ts
+const rows = await sql`SELECT * FROM users`.values();
+console.log(rows);
+```
+
+This returns something like:
+
+```ts
+[
+  ["Alice", "alice@example.com"],
+  ["Bob", "bob@example.com"],
+];
+```
+
+`sql``.values()` is especially useful if duplicate column names are returned in the query results. When using objects (the default), the last column name is used as the key in the object, which means duplicate column names overwrite each other &mdash; but when using `sql``.values()`, each column is present in the array so you can access the values of duplicate columns by index.
+
+### `sql``.raw()` format
+
+The `.raw()` method returns rows as arrays of `Buffer` objects. This can be useful for working with binary data or for performance reasons.
+
+```ts
+const rows = await sql`SELECT * FROM users`.raw();
+console.log(rows); // [[Buffer, Buffer], [Buffer, Buffer], [Buffer, Buffer]]
+```
+
+---
+
+## SQL Fragments
+
+A common need in database applications is the ability to construct queries dynamically based on runtime conditions. Bun provides safe ways to do this without risking SQL injection.
+
+### Dynamic Table Names
+
+When you need to reference tables or schemas dynamically, use the `sql()` helper to ensure proper escaping:
+
+```ts
+// Safely reference tables dynamically
+await sql`SELECT * FROM ${sql("users")}`;
+
+// With schema qualification
+await sql`SELECT * FROM ${sql("public.users")}`;
+```
+
+### Conditional Queries
+
+You can use the `sql()` helper to build queries with conditional clauses. This allows you to create flexible queries that adapt to your application's needs:
+
+```ts
+// Optional WHERE clauses
+const filterAge = true;
+const minAge = 21;
+const ageFilter = sql`AND age > ${minAge}`;
+await sql`
+  SELECT * FROM users
+  WHERE active = ${true}
+  ${filterAge ? ageFilter : sql``}
+`;
+```
+
+### Dynamic columns in updates
+
+You can use `sql(object, ...string)` to pick which columns to update. Each of the columns must be defined on the object. If the columns are not informed all keys will be used to update the row.
+
+```ts
+await sql`UPDATE users SET ${sql(user, "name", "email")} WHERE id = ${user.id}`;
+// uses all keys from the object to update the row
+await sql`UPDATE users SET ${sql(user)} WHERE id = ${user.id}`;
+```
+
+### Dynamic values and `where in`
+
+Value lists can also be created dynamically, making where in queries simple too. Optionally you can pass a array of objects and inform what key to use to create the list.
+
+```ts
+await sql`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id IN ${sql([1, 2, 3])}`;
+
+const users = [
+  { id: 1, name: "Alice" },
+  { id: 2, name: "Bob" },
+  { id: 3, name: "Charlie" },
+];
+await sql`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id IN ${sql(users, "id")}`;
+```
+
+### `sql.array` helper
+
+The `sql.array` helper creates PostgreSQL array literals from JavaScript arrays:
+
+```ts
+// Create array literals for PostgreSQL
+await sql`INSERT INTO tags (items) VALUES (${sql.array(["red", "blue", "green"])})`;
+// Generates: INSERT INTO tags (items) VALUES (ARRAY['red', 'blue', 'green'])
+
+// Works with numeric arrays too
+await sql`SELECT * FROM products WHERE ids = ANY(${sql.array([1, 2, 3])})`;
+// Generates: SELECT * FROM products WHERE ids = ANY(ARRAY[1, 2, 3])
+```
+
+<Note>`sql.array` is PostgreSQL-only. Multi-dimensional arrays and NULL elements may not be supported yet.</Note>
+
+---
+
+## `sql``.simple()`
+
+The PostgreSQL wire protocol supports two types of queries: "simple" and "extended". Simple queries can contain multiple statements but don't support parameters, while extended queries (the default) support parameters but only allow one statement.
+
+To run multiple statements in a single query, use `sql``.simple()`:
+
+```ts
+// Multiple statements in one query
+await sql`
+  SELECT 1;
+  SELECT 2;
+`.simple();
+```
+
+Simple queries are often useful for database migrations and setup scripts.
+
+Note that simple queries cannot use parameters (`${value}`). If you need parameters, you must split your query into separate statements.
+
+### Queries in files
+
+You can use the `sql.file` method to read a query from a file and execute it, if the file includes $1, $2, etc you can pass parameters to the query. If no parameters are used it can execute multiple commands per file.
+
+```ts
+const result = await sql.file("query.sql", [1, 2, 3]);
+```
+
+### Unsafe Queries
+
+You can use the `sql.unsafe` function to execute raw SQL strings. Use this with caution, as it will not escape user input. Executing more than one command per query is allowed if no parameters are used.
+
+```ts
+// Multiple commands without parameters
+const result = await sql.unsafe(`
+  SELECT ${userColumns} FROM users;
+  SELECT ${accountColumns} FROM accounts;
+`);
+
+// Using parameters (only one command is allowed)
+const result = await sql.unsafe("SELECT " + dangerous + " FROM users WHERE id = $1", [id]);
+```
+
+### Execute and Cancelling Queries
+
+Bun's SQL is lazy, which means it will only start executing when awaited or executed with `.execute()`.
+You can cancel a query that is currently executing by calling the `cancel()` method on the query object.
+
+```ts
+const query = sql`SELECT * FROM users`.execute();
+setTimeout(() => query.cancel(), 100);
+await query;
+```
+
+---
+
+## Database Environment Variables
+
+`sql` connection parameters can be configured using environment variables. The client checks these variables in a specific order of precedence and automatically detects the database type based on the connection string format.
+
+### Automatic Database Detection
+
+When using `Bun.sql()` without arguments or `new SQL()` with a connection string, the adapter is automatically detected based on the URL format:
+
+#### MySQL Auto-Detection
+
+MySQL is automatically selected when the connection string matches these patterns:
+
+- `mysql://...` - MySQL protocol URLs
+- `mysql2://...` - MySQL2 protocol URLs (compatibility alias)
+
+```ts
+// These all use MySQL automatically (no adapter needed)
+const sql1 = new SQL("mysql://user:pass@localhost/mydb");
+const sql2 = new SQL("mysql2://user:pass@localhost:3306/mydb");
+
+// Works with DATABASE_URL environment variable
+DATABASE_URL="mysql://user:pass@localhost/mydb" bun run app.js
+DATABASE_URL="mysql2://user:pass@localhost:3306/mydb" bun run app.js
+```
+
+#### SQLite Auto-Detection
+
+SQLite is automatically selected when the connection string matches these patterns:
+
+- `:memory:` - In-memory database
+- `sqlite://...` - SQLite protocol URLs
+- `sqlite:...` - SQLite protocol without slashes
+- `file://...` - File protocol URLs
+- `file:...` - File protocol without slashes
+
+```ts
+// These all use SQLite automatically (no adapter needed)
+const sql1 = new SQL(":memory:");
+const sql2 = new SQL("sqlite://app.db");
+const sql3 = new SQL("file://./database.db");
+
+// Works with DATABASE_URL environment variable
+DATABASE_URL=":memory:" bun run app.js
+DATABASE_URL="sqlite://myapp.db" bun run app.js
+DATABASE_URL="file://./data/app.db" bun run app.js
+```
+
+#### PostgreSQL Auto-Detection
+
+PostgreSQL is the default for connection strings that don't match MySQL or SQLite patterns:
+
+```bash
+# PostgreSQL is detected for these patterns
+DATABASE_URL="postgres://user:pass@localhost:5432/mydb" bun run app.js
+DATABASE_URL="postgresql://user:pass@localhost:5432/mydb" bun run app.js
+
+# Or any URL that doesn't match MySQL or SQLite patterns
+DATABASE_URL="localhost:5432/mydb" bun run app.js
+```
+
+### MySQL Environment Variables
+
+MySQL connections can be configured via environment variables:
+
+```bash
+# Primary connection URL (checked first)
+MYSQL_URL="mysql://user:pass@localhost:3306/mydb"
+
+# Alternative: DATABASE_URL with MySQL protocol
+DATABASE_URL="mysql://user:pass@localhost:3306/mydb"
+DATABASE_URL="mysql2://user:pass@localhost:3306/mydb"
+```
+
+If no connection URL is provided, MySQL checks these individual parameters:
+
+| Environment Variable     | Default Value | Description                      |
+| ------------------------ | ------------- | -------------------------------- |
+| `MYSQL_HOST`             | `localhost`   | Database host                    |
+| `MYSQL_PORT`             | `3306`        | Database port                    |
+| `MYSQL_USER`             | `root`        | Database user                    |
+| `MYSQL_PASSWORD`         | (empty)       | Database password                |
+| `MYSQL_DATABASE`         | `mysql`       | Database name                    |
+| `MYSQL_URL`              | (empty)       | Primary connection URL for MySQL |
+| `TLS_MYSQL_DATABASE_URL` | (empty)       | SSL/TLS-enabled connection URL   |
+
+### PostgreSQL Environment Variables
+
+The following environment variables can be used to define the PostgreSQL connection:
+
+| Environment Variable        | Description                                |
+| --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
+| `POSTGRES_URL`              | Primary connection URL for PostgreSQL      |
+| `DATABASE_URL`              | Alternative connection URL (auto-detected) |
+| `PGURL`                     | Alternative connection URL                 |
+| `PG_URL`                    | Alternative connection URL                 |
+| `TLS_POSTGRES_DATABASE_URL` | SSL/TLS-enabled connection URL             |
+| `TLS_DATABASE_URL`          | Alternative SSL/TLS-enabled connection URL |
+
+If no connection URL is provided, the system checks for the following individual parameters:
+
+| Environment Variable | Fallback Variables           | Default Value | Description       |
+| -------------------- | ---------------------------- | ------------- | ----------------- |
+| `PGHOST`             | -                            | `localhost`   | Database host     |
+| `PGPORT`             | -                            | `5432`        | Database port     |
+| `PGUSERNAME`         | `PGUSER`, `USER`, `USERNAME` | `postgres`    | Database user     |
+| `PGPASSWORD`         | -                            | (empty)       | Database password |
+| `PGDATABASE`         | -                            | username      | Database name     |
+
+### SQLite Environment Variables
+
+SQLite connections can be configured via `DATABASE_URL` when it contains a SQLite-compatible URL:
+
+```bash
+# These are all recognized as SQLite
+DATABASE_URL=":memory:"
+DATABASE_URL="sqlite://./app.db"
+DATABASE_URL="file:///absolute/path/to/db.sqlite"
+```
+
+**Note:** PostgreSQL-specific environment variables (`POSTGRES_URL`, `PGHOST`, etc.) are ignored when using SQLite.
+
+---
+
+## Runtime Preconnection
+
+Bun can preconnect to PostgreSQL at startup to improve performance by establishing database connections before your application code runs. This is useful for reducing connection latency on the first database query.
+
+```bash
+# Enable PostgreSQL preconnection
+bun --sql-preconnect index.js
+
+# Works with DATABASE_URL environment variable
+DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:pass@localhost:5432/db bun --sql-preconnect index.js
+
+# Can be combined with other runtime flags
+bun --sql-preconnect --hot index.js
+```
+
+The `--sql-preconnect` flag will automatically establish a PostgreSQL connection using your configured environment variables at startup. If the connection fails, it won't crash your application - the error will be handled gracefully.
+
+---
+
+## Connection Options
+
+You can configure your database connection manually by passing options to the SQL constructor. Options vary depending on the database adapter:
+
+### MySQL Options
+
+```ts
+import { SQL } from "bun";
+
+const sql = new SQL({
+  // Required for MySQL when using options object
+  adapter: "mysql",
+
+  // Connection details
+  hostname: "localhost",
+  port: 3306,
+  database: "myapp",
+  username: "dbuser",
+  password: "secretpass",
+
+  // Unix socket connection (alternative to hostname/port)
+  // socket: "/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock",
+
+  // Connection pool settings
+  max: 20, // Maximum connections in pool (default: 10)
+  idleTimeout: 30, // Close idle connections after 30s
+  maxLifetime: 0, // Connection lifetime in seconds (0 = forever)
+  connectionTimeout: 30, // Timeout when establishing new connections
+
+  // SSL/TLS options
+  ssl: "prefer", // or "disable", "require", "verify-ca", "verify-full"
+  // tls: {
+  //   rejectUnauthorized: true,
+  //   ca: "path/to/ca.pem",
+  //   key: "path/to/key.pem",
+  //   cert: "path/to/cert.pem",
+  // },
+
+  // Callbacks
+  onconnect: client => {
+    console.log("Connected to MySQL");
+  },
+  onclose: (client, err) => {
+    if (err) {
+      console.error("MySQL connection error:", err);
+    } else {
+      console.log("MySQL connection closed");
+    }
+  },
+});
+```
+
+### PostgreSQL Options
+
+```ts
+import { SQL } from "bun";
+
+const sql = new SQL({
+  // Connection details (adapter is auto-detected as PostgreSQL)
+  url: "postgres://user:pass@localhost:5432/dbname",
+
+  // Alternative connection parameters
+  hostname: "localhost",
+  port: 5432,
+  database: "myapp",
+  username: "dbuser",
+  password: "secretpass",
+
+  // Connection pool settings
+  max: 20, // Maximum connections in pool
+  idleTimeout: 30, // Close idle connections after 30s
+  maxLifetime: 0, // Connection lifetime in seconds (0 = forever)
+  connectionTimeout: 30, // Timeout when establishing new connections
+
+  // SSL/TLS options
+  tls: true,
+  // tls: {
+  //   rejectUnauthorized: true,
+  //   requestCert: true,
+  //   ca: "path/to/ca.pem",
+  //   key: "path/to/key.pem",
+  //   cert: "path/to/cert.pem",
+  //   checkServerIdentity(hostname, cert) {
+  //     ...
+  //   },
+  // },
+
+  // Callbacks
+  onconnect: client => {
+    console.log("Connected to PostgreSQL");
+  },
+  onclose: client => {
+    console.log("PostgreSQL connection closed");
+  },
+});
+```
+
+### SQLite Options
+
+```ts
+import { SQL } from "bun";
+
+const sql = new SQL({
+  // Required for SQLite
+  adapter: "sqlite",
+  filename: "./data/app.db", // or ":memory:" for in-memory database
+
+  // SQLite-specific access modes
+  readonly: false, // Open in read-only mode
+  create: true, // Create database if it doesn't exist
+  readwrite: true, // Allow read and write operations
+
+  // SQLite data handling
+  strict: true, // Enable strict mode for better type safety
+  safeIntegers: false, // Use BigInt for integers exceeding JS number range
+
+  // Callbacks
+  onconnect: client => {
+    console.log("SQLite database opened");
+  },
+  onclose: client => {
+    console.log("SQLite database closed");
+  },
+});
+```

+- **Connection Pooling**: SQLite doesn't use connection pooling as it's a file-based database. Each `SQL` instance represents a single connection.
+- **Transactions**: SQLite supports nested transactions through savepoints, similar to PostgreSQL.
+- **Concurrent Access**: SQLite handles concurrent access through file locking. Use WAL mode for better concurrency.
+- **Memory Databases**: Using `:memory:` creates a temporary database that exists only for the connection lifetime.

+## Dynamic passwords
+
+When clients need to use alternative authentication schemes such as access tokens or connections to databases with rotating passwords, provide either a synchronous or asynchronous function that will resolve the dynamic password value at connection time.
+
+```ts
+import { SQL } from "bun";
+
+const sql = new SQL(url, {
+  // Other connection config
+  ...
+  // Password function for the database user
+  password: async () => await signer.getAuthToken(),
+});
+```
+
+---
+
+## SQLite-Specific Features
+
+### Query Execution
+
+SQLite executes queries synchronously, unlike PostgreSQL which uses asynchronous I/O. However, the API remains consistent using Promises:
+
+```ts
+const sqlite = new SQL("sqlite://app.db");
+
+// Works the same as PostgreSQL, but executes synchronously under the hood
+const users = await sqlite`SELECT * FROM users`;
+
+// Parameters work identically
+const user = await sqlite`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ${userId}`;
+```
+
+### SQLite Pragmas
+
+You can use PRAGMA statements to configure SQLite behavior:
+
+```ts
+const sqlite = new SQL("sqlite://app.db");
+
+// Enable foreign keys
+await sqlite`PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON`;
+
+// Set journal mode to WAL for better concurrency
+await sqlite`PRAGMA journal_mode = WAL`;
+
+// Check integrity
+const integrity = await sqlite`PRAGMA integrity_check`;
+```
+
+### Data Type Differences
+
+SQLite has a more flexible type system than PostgreSQL:
+
+```ts
+// SQLite stores data in 5 storage classes: NULL, INTEGER, REAL, TEXT, BLOB
+const sqlite = new SQL("sqlite://app.db");
+
+// SQLite is more lenient with types
+await sqlite`
+  CREATE TABLE flexible (
+    id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
+    data TEXT,        -- Can store numbers as strings
+    value NUMERIC,    -- Can store integers, reals, or text
+    blob BLOB         -- Binary data
+  )
+`;
+
+// JavaScript values are automatically converted
+await sqlite`INSERT INTO flexible VALUES (${1}, ${"text"}, ${123.45}, ${Buffer.from("binary")})`;
+```
+
+---
+
+## Transactions
+
+To start a new transaction, use `sql.begin`. This method works for both PostgreSQL and SQLite. For PostgreSQL, it reserves a dedicated connection from the pool. For SQLite, it begins a transaction on the single connection.
+
+The `BEGIN` command is sent automatically, including any optional configurations you specify. If an error occurs during the transaction, a `ROLLBACK` is triggered to ensure the process continues smoothly.
+
+### Basic Transactions
+
+```ts
+await sql.begin(async tx => {
+  // All queries in this function run in a transaction
+  await tx`INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES (${"Alice"})`;
+  await tx`UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance - 100 WHERE user_id = 1`;
+
+  // Transaction automatically commits if no errors are thrown
+  // Rolls back if any error occurs
+});
+```
+
+It's also possible to pipeline the requests in a transaction if needed by returning an array with queries from the callback function like this:
+
+```ts
+await sql.begin(async tx => {
+  return [
+    tx`INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES (${"Alice"})`,
+    tx`UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance - 100 WHERE user_id = 1`,
+  ];
+});
+```
+
+### Savepoints
+
+Savepoints in SQL create intermediate checkpoints within a transaction, enabling partial rollbacks without affecting the entire operation. They are useful in complex transactions, allowing error recovery and maintaining consistent results.
+
+```ts
+await sql.begin(async tx => {
+  await tx`INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES (${"Alice"})`;
+
+  await tx.savepoint(async sp => {
+    // This part can be rolled back separately
+    await sp`UPDATE users SET status = 'active'`;
+    if (someCondition) {
+      throw new Error("Rollback to savepoint");
+    }
+  });
+
+  // Continue with transaction even if savepoint rolled back
+  await tx`INSERT INTO audit_log (action) VALUES ('user_created')`;
+});
+```
+
+### Distributed Transactions
+
+Two-Phase Commit (2PC) is a distributed transaction protocol where Phase 1 has the coordinator preparing nodes by ensuring data is written and ready to commit, while Phase 2 finalizes with nodes either committing or rolling back based on the coordinator's decision. This process ensures data durability and proper lock management.
+
+In PostgreSQL and MySQL, distributed transactions persist beyond their original session, allowing privileged users or coordinators to commit or rollback them later. This supports robust distributed transactions, recovery processes, and administrative operations.
+
+Each database system implements distributed transactions differently:
+
+PostgreSQL natively supports them through prepared transactions, while MySQL uses XA Transactions.
+
+If any exceptions occur during the distributed transaction and aren't caught, the system will automatically rollback all changes. When everything proceeds normally, you maintain the flexibility to either commit or rollback the transaction later.
+
+```ts
+// Begin a distributed transaction
+await sql.beginDistributed("tx1", async tx => {
+  await tx`INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES (${"Alice"})`;
+});
+
+// Later, commit or rollback
+await sql.commitDistributed("tx1");
+// or
+await sql.rollbackDistributed("tx1");
+```
+
+---
+
+## Authentication
+
+Bun supports SCRAM-SHA-256 (SASL), MD5, and Clear Text authentication. SASL is recommended for better security. Check [Postgres SASL Authentication](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sasl-authentication.html) for more information.
+
+### SSL Modes Overview
+
+PostgreSQL supports different SSL/TLS modes to control how secure connections are established. These modes determine the behavior when connecting and the level of certificate verification performed.
+
+```ts
+const sql = new SQL({
+  hostname: "localhost",
+  username: "user",
+  password: "password",
+  ssl: "disable", // | "prefer" | "require" | "verify-ca" | "verify-full"
+});
+```
+
+| SSL Mode      | Description                                                                                                          |
+| ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `disable`     | No SSL/TLS used. Connections fail if server requires SSL.                                                            |
+| `prefer`      | Tries SSL first, falls back to non-SSL if SSL fails. Default mode if none specified.                                 |
+| `require`     | Requires SSL without certificate verification. Fails if SSL cannot be established.                                   |
+| `verify-ca`   | Verifies server certificate is signed by trusted CA. Fails if verification fails.                                    |
+| `verify-full` | Most secure mode. Verifies certificate and hostname match. Protects against untrusted certificates and MITM attacks. |
+
+### Using With Connection Strings
+
+The SSL mode can also be specified in connection strings:
+
+```ts
+// Using prefer mode
+const sql = new SQL("postgres://user:password@localhost/mydb?sslmode=prefer");
+
+// Using verify-full mode
+const sql = new SQL("postgres://user:password@localhost/mydb?sslmode=verify-full");
+```
+
+---
+
+## Connection Pooling
+
+Bun's SQL client automatically manages a connection pool, which is a pool of database connections that are reused for multiple queries. This helps to reduce the overhead of establishing and closing connections for each query, and it also helps to manage the number of concurrent connections to the database.
+
+```ts
+const sql = new SQL({
+  // Pool configuration
+  max: 20, // Maximum 20 concurrent connections
+  idleTimeout: 30, // Close idle connections after 30s
+  maxLifetime: 3600, // Max connection lifetime 1 hour
+  connectionTimeout: 10, // Connection timeout 10s
+});
+```
+
+No connection will be made until a query is made.
+
+```ts
+const sql = Bun.SQL(); // no connection are created
+
+await sql`...`; // pool is started until max is reached (if possible), first available connection is used
+await sql`...`; // previous connection is reused
+
+// two connections are used now at the same time
+await Promise.all([
+  sql`INSERT INTO users ${sql({ name: "Alice" })}`,
+  sql`UPDATE users SET name = ${user.name} WHERE id = ${user.id}`,
+]);
+
+await sql.close(); // await all queries to finish and close all connections from the pool
+await sql.close({ timeout: 5 }); // wait 5 seconds and close all connections from the pool
+await sql.close({ timeout: 0 }); // close all connections from the pool immediately
+```
+
+---
+
+## Reserved Connections
+
+Bun enables you to reserve a connection from the pool, and returns a client that wraps the single connection. This can be used for running queries on an isolated connection.
+
+```ts
+// Get exclusive connection from pool
+const reserved = await sql.reserve();
+
+try {
+  await reserved`INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES (${"Alice"})`;
+} finally {
+  // Important: Release connection back to pool
+  reserved.release();
+}
+
+// Or using Symbol.dispose
+{
+  using reserved = await sql.reserve();
+  await reserved`SELECT 1`;
+} // Automatically released
+```
+
+---
+
+## Prepared Statements
+
+By default, Bun's SQL client automatically creates named prepared statements for queries where it can be inferred that the query is static. This provides better performance. However, you can change this behavior by setting `prepare: false` in the connection options:
+
+```ts
+const sql = new SQL({
+  // ... other options ...
+  prepare: false, // Disable persisting named prepared statements on the server
+});
+```
+
+When `prepare: false` is set:
+
+Queries are still executed using the "extended" protocol, but they are executed using [unnamed prepared statements](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/protocol-flow.html#PROTOCOL-FLOW-EXT-QUERY), an unnamed prepared statement lasts only until the next Parse statement specifying the unnamed statement as destination is issued.
+
+- Parameter binding is still safe against SQL injection
+- Each query is parsed and planned from scratch by the server
+- Queries will not be [pipelined](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/protocol-flow.html#PROTOCOL-FLOW-PIPELINING)
+
+You might want to use `prepare: false` when:
+
+- Using PGBouncer in transaction mode (though since PGBouncer 1.21.0, protocol-level named prepared statements are supported when configured properly)
+- Debugging query execution plans
+- Working with dynamic SQL where query plans need to be regenerated frequently
+- More than one command per query will not be supported (unless you use `sql``.simple()`)
+
+Note that disabling prepared statements may impact performance for queries that are executed frequently with different parameters, as the server needs to parse and plan each query from scratch.
+
+---
+
+## Error Handling
+
+The client provides typed errors for different failure scenarios. Errors are database-specific and extend from base error classes:
+
+### Error Classes
+
+```ts
+import { SQL } from "bun";
+
+try {
+  await sql`SELECT * FROM users`;
+} catch (error) {
+  if (error instanceof SQL.PostgresError) {
+    // PostgreSQL-specific error
+    console.log(error.code); // PostgreSQL error code
+    console.log(error.detail); // Detailed error message
+    console.log(error.hint); // Helpful hint from PostgreSQL
+  } else if (error instanceof SQL.SQLiteError) {
+    // SQLite-specific error
+    console.log(error.code); // SQLite error code (e.g., "SQLITE_CONSTRAINT")
+    console.log(error.errno); // SQLite error number
+    console.log(error.byteOffset); // Byte offset in SQL statement (if available)
+  } else if (error instanceof SQL.SQLError) {
+    // Generic SQL error (base class)
+    console.log(error.message);
+  }
+}
+```

+
+## Numbers and BigInt
+
+Bun's SQL client includes special handling for large numbers that exceed the range of a 53-bit integer. Here's how it works:
+
+```ts
+import { sql } from "bun";
+
+const [{ x, y }] = await sql`SELECT 9223372036854777 as x, 12345 as y`;
+
+console.log(typeof x, x); // "string" "9223372036854777"
+console.log(typeof y, y); // "number" 12345
+```
+
+---
+
+## BigInt Instead of Strings
+
+If you need large numbers as BigInt instead of strings, you can enable this by setting the `bigint` option to `true` when initializing the SQL client:
+
+```ts
+const sql = new SQL({
+  bigint: true,
+});
+
+const [{ x }] = await sql`SELECT 9223372036854777 as x`;
+
+console.log(typeof x, x); // "bigint" 9223372036854777n
+```
+
+---
+
+## Roadmap
+
+There's still some things we haven't finished yet.
+
+- Connection preloading via `--db-preconnect` Bun CLI flag
+- Column name transforms (e.g. `snake_case` to `camelCase`). This is mostly blocked on a unicode-aware implementation of changing the case in C++ using WebKit's `WTF::String`.
+- Column type transforms
+
+---
+
+## Database-Specific Features
+
+#### Authentication Methods
+
+MySQL supports multiple authentication plugins that are automatically negotiated:
+
+- **`mysql_native_password`** - Traditional MySQL authentication, widely compatible
+- **`caching_sha2_password`** - Default in MySQL 8.0+, more secure with RSA key exchange
+- **`sha256_password`** - SHA-256 based authentication
+
+The client automatically handles authentication plugin switching when requested by the server, including secure password exchange over non-SSL connections.
+
+#### Prepared Statements & Performance
+
+MySQL uses server-side prepared statements for all parameterized queries:
+
+```ts
+// This automatically creates a prepared statement on the server
+const user = await mysql`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ${userId}`;
+
+// Prepared statements are cached and reused for identical queries
+for (const id of userIds) {
+  // Same prepared statement is reused
+  await mysql`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ${id}`;
+}
+
+// Query pipelining - multiple statements sent without waiting
+const [users, orders, products] = await Promise.all([
+  mysql`SELECT * FROM users WHERE active = ${true}`,
+  mysql`SELECT * FROM orders WHERE status = ${"pending"}`,
+  mysql`SELECT * FROM products WHERE in_stock = ${true}`,
+]);
+```
+
+#### Multiple Result Sets
+
+MySQL can return multiple result sets from multi-statement queries:
+
+```ts
+const mysql = new SQL("mysql://user:pass@localhost/mydb");
+
+// Multi-statement queries with simple() method
+const multiResults = await mysql`
+  SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = 1;
+  SELECT * FROM orders WHERE user_id = 1;
+`.simple();
+```
+
+#### Character Sets & Collations
+
+Bun.SQL automatically uses `utf8mb4` character set for MySQL connections, ensuring full Unicode support including emojis. This is the recommended character set for modern MySQL applications.
+
+#### Connection Attributes
+
+Bun automatically sends client information to MySQL for better monitoring:
+
+```ts
+// These attributes are sent automatically:
+// _client_name: "Bun"
+// _client_version: <bun version>
+// You can see these in MySQL's performance_schema.session_connect_attrs
+```
+
+#### Type Handling
+
+MySQL types are automatically converted to JavaScript types:
+
+| MySQL Type                              | JavaScript Type          | Notes                                                                                                |

+#### Differences from PostgreSQL
+
+While the API is unified, there are some behavioral differences:
+
+1. **Parameter placeholders**: MySQL uses `?` internally but Bun converts `$1, $2` style automatically
+2. **RETURNING clause**: MySQL doesn't support RETURNING; use `result.lastInsertRowid` or a separate SELECT
+3. **Array types**: MySQL doesn't have native array types like PostgreSQL
+
+### MySQL-Specific Features
+
+We haven't implemented `LOAD DATA INFILE` support yet
+
+### PostgreSQL-Specific Features
+
+We haven't implemented these yet:
+
+- `COPY` support
+- `LISTEN` support
+- `NOTIFY` support
+
+We also haven't implemented some of the more uncommon features like:
+
+- GSSAPI authentication
+- `SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS` support
+- Point & PostGIS types
+- All the multi-dimensional integer array types (only a couple of the types are supported)

+
+## Common Patterns & Best Practices
+
+### Working with MySQL Result Sets
+
+```ts
+// Getting insert ID after INSERT
+const result = await mysql`INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES (${"Alice"})`;
+console.log(result.lastInsertRowid); // MySQL's LAST_INSERT_ID()
+
+// Handling affected rows
+const updated = await mysql`UPDATE users SET active = ${false} WHERE age < ${18}`;
+console.log(updated.affectedRows); // Number of rows updated
+
+// Using MySQL-specific functions
+const now = await mysql`SELECT NOW() as current_time`;
+const uuid = await mysql`SELECT UUID() as id`;
+```
+
+### MySQL Error Handling
+
+```ts
+try {
+  await mysql`INSERT INTO users (email) VALUES (${"duplicate@email.com"})`;
+} catch (error) {
+  if (error.code === "ER_DUP_ENTRY") {
+    console.log("Duplicate entry detected");
+  } else if (error.code === "ER_ACCESS_DENIED_ERROR") {
+    console.log("Access denied");
+  } else if (error.code === "ER_BAD_DB_ERROR") {
+    console.log("Database does not exist");
+  }
+  // MySQL error codes are compatible with mysql/mysql2 packages
+}
+```
+
+### Performance Tips for MySQL
+
+1. **Use connection pooling**: Set appropriate `max` pool size based on your workload
+2. **Enable prepared statements**: They're enabled by default and improve performance
+3. **Use transactions for bulk operations**: Group related queries in transactions
+4. **Index properly**: MySQL relies heavily on indexes for query performance
+5. **Use `utf8mb4` charset**: It's set by default and handles all Unicode characters

+## Frequently Asked Questions
+
+<AccordionGroup>
+	<Accordion title="Why is this `Bun.sql` and not `Bun.postgres`?">
+		The plan was to add more database drivers in the future. Now with MySQL support added, this unified API supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite.
+	</Accordion>
+	<Accordion title="How do I know which database adapter is being used?">
+		The adapter is automatically detected from the connection string:
+
+    	- URLs starting with `mysql://` or `mysql2://` use MySQL
+    	- URLs matching SQLite patterns (`:memory:`, `sqlite://`, `file://`) use SQLite
+    	- Everything else defaults to PostgreSQL
+    </Accordion>
+    <Accordion title="Are MySQL stored procedures supported?">
+    	Yes, stored procedures are fully supported including OUT parameters and multiple result sets:
+
+    	```ts
+    	// Call stored procedure
+    	const results = await mysql`CALL GetUserStats(${userId}, @total_orders)`;
+
+    	// Get OUT parameter
+    	const outParam = await mysql`SELECT @total_orders as total`;
+    	```
+    </Accordion>
+    <Accordion title="Can I use MySQL-specific SQL syntax?">
+    	Yes, you can use any MySQL-specific syntax:
+
+    	```ts
+    	// MySQL-specific syntax works fine
+    	await mysql`SET @user_id = ${userId}`;
+    	await mysql`SHOW TABLES`;
+    	await mysql`DESCRIBE users`;
+    	await mysql`EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ${id}`;
+    	```
+    </Accordion>
+
+</AccordionGroup>

+
+## Why not just use an existing library?
+
+npm packages like postgres.js, pg, and node-postgres can be used in Bun too. They're great options.
+
+Two reasons why:
+
+1. We think it's simpler for developers to have a database driver built into Bun. The time you spend library shopping is time you could be building your app.
+2. We leverage some JavaScriptCore engine internals to make it faster to create objects that would be difficult to implement in a library
