Current query interface (in Go) is weird. The user must know that
Execute
should be called in a goroutine, and then returned values should beCollated
. This is a very non-intuitive way to expose query results.This PR defines a new interface that returns a regular iterator. The type of query results is controlled by an option. This way the query language will collate value internally, providing only useful values to the user.
This is a breaking change, since it replaces the old interface completely. However, internal query interface was not documented, and was not intended for external use, so I think it's worth changing anyway.
This change also adds an extendable
Options
parameter toExecute
, unlocking future progress on #821.This change is
