Answer 1

Hey its because of []int
try this

type Int64Array []int64

// Value returns the driver compatible value
func (a Int64Array) Value() (driver.Value, error) {
var strs []string
for _, i := range a {
    strs = append(strs, strconv.FormatInt(i, 10))
}
return "{" + strings.Join(strs, ",") + "}", nil
}

and then pass int64 to query

db.Queryx("SELECT * FROM quote WHERE qid IN $1", int64IDs)

The tags suggest that you are using sqlx. It has support for IN in queries.

So you can do

var qids []int
//fill qids dynamically
rows, err = db.Query(&quotes, "SELECT * FROM quote WHERE qid IN ($1)", qids)
if err != nil {
    log.Println(err)
}
// scan the rows

Answer 3

sqlx has a great helper for that: In() we just have to prepare the query taking the args and Rebind, like this:

var qids []int

// fills qids on query dynamically
query, args, err := sqlx.In("SELECT * FROM quote WHERE qid IN (?)", qids)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

// sqlx.In returns queries with the `?` bindvar, we can rebind it for our backend
//
query = database.SQL.Rebind(query)  // database.SQL should be a *sqlx.DB

err = database.SQL.Select(&quotes, query, args...)
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}

// or just in one line:

err = database.SQL.Select(&quotes, database.SQL.Rebind(query), args...)

Also I recommend you take a look here: http://jmoiron.github.io/sqlx/ there're a lot of examples including IN
