Exclude columns from `sqlc.embed`

[Couper4]

Is there a way to exclude columns from sqlc.embed(my_table)?

It would be useful to avoid reading from specific columns (e.g. columns you need to drop, and you want to stop reading before actually dropping them), without loosing the nice generated struct.

I don't know your usecase, but embed will always only create a query that has all of the rows on that particular table in your schema. So as long as you have ran sqlc generate and have that code run after the migration - you should have nothing to worry about. The advantage of embed is that since it selects all columns from a table, it can reuse the model struct for that table and you don't have to do any sort of marshalling. If it didn't read some columns, you would have to implicitly know at the application layer that some of the fields of the struct are always zero values because they were never read.
