Function parseArray

types/array.go:1176–1279

parseArray extracts the dimensions and elements of an array represented in text format. Only representations emitted by the backend are supported. Notably, whitespace around brackets and delimiters is significant, and NULL is case-sensitive. See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/arrays.
