Overview

The duplicate_columns_handler extension allows you to customize handling of duplicate column names in your queries on a per-database or per-dataset level.

For example, you may want to raise an exception if you join 2 tables together which contains a column that will override another columns.

To use the extension, you need to load the extension into the database:

DB.extension :duplicate_columns_handler

A database option is introduced: :on_duplicate_columns. It accepts a Symbol or any object that responds to :call.

:on_duplicate_columns => :raise
:on_duplicate_columns => :warn
:on_duplicate_columns => :ignore
:on_duplicate_columns => proc { |columns| arbitrary_condition? ? :raise : :warn }

You may also configure duplicate columns handling for a specific dataset:

ds.on_duplicate_columns(:warn)
ds.on_duplicate_columns(:raise)
ds.on_duplicate_columns(:ignore)
ds.on_duplicate_columns { |columns| arbitrary_condition? ? :raise : :warn }
ds.on_duplicate_columns(proc { |columns| arbitrary_condition? ? :raise : :warn })

If :raise is specified, a Sequel::DuplicateColumnError is raised. If :warn is specified, you will receive a warning via ‘warn`. If a callable is specified, it will be called. If no on_duplicate_columns is specified, the default is :warn.

Class Attribute Details

.convert_two_digit_years ⇒ Object

Sequel converts two digit years in Dates and DateTimes by default, so 01/02/03 is interpreted at January 2nd, 2003, and 12/13/99 is interpreted as December 13, 1999. You can override this to treat those dates as January 2nd, 0003 and December 13, 0099, respectively, by:

Sequel.convert_two_digit_years = false

# File 'lib/sequel/core.rb', line 38

def convert_two_digit_years
  @convert_two_digit_years
end

.datetime_class ⇒ Object

Sequel can use either Time or DateTime for times returned from the database. It defaults to Time. To change it to DateTime:

Sequel.datetime_class = DateTime

For ruby versions less than 1.9.2, Time has a limited range (1901 to 2038), so if you use datetimes out of that range, you need to switch to DateTime. Also, before 1.9.2, Time can only handle local and UTC times, not other timezones. Note that Time and DateTime objects have a different API, and in cases where they implement the same methods, they often implement them differently (e.g. + using seconds on Time and days on DateTime).

.condition_specifier?(obj) ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if the passed object could be a specifier of conditions, false otherwise. Currently, Sequel considers hashes and arrays of two element arrays as condition specifiers.

Sequel.condition_specifier?({}) # => true
Sequel.condition_specifier?([[1, 2]]) # => true
Sequel.condition_specifier?([]) # => false
Sequel.condition_specifier?([1]) # => false
Sequel.condition_specifier?(1) # => false

Returns:

    !obj.empty? && !obj.is_a?(SQL::ValueList) && obj.all?{|i| i.is_a?(Array) && (i.length == 2)}
  else
    false
  end
end

.connect(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

Creates a new database object based on the supplied connection string and optional arguments. The specified scheme determines the database class used, and the rest of the string specifies the connection options. For example:

DB = Sequel.connect('sqlite:/') # Memory database
DB = Sequel.connect('sqlite://blog.db') # ./blog.db
DB = Sequel.connect('sqlite:///blog.db') # /blog.db
DB = Sequel.connect('postgres://user:password@host:port/database_name')
DB = Sequel.connect('sqlite:///blog.db', :max_connections=>10)

You can also pass a single options hash:

DB = Sequel.connect(:adapter=>'sqlite', :database=>'./blog.db')

If a block is given, it is passed the opened Database object, which is closed when the block exits. For example:

Sequel.connect('sqlite://blog.db'){|db| puts db[:users].count}

If a block is not given, a reference to this database will be held in Sequel::DATABASES until it is removed manually. This is by design, and used by Sequel::Model to pick the default database. It is recommended to pass a block if you do not want the resulting Database object to remain in memory until the process terminates.

For details, see the “Connecting to a Database” guide. To set up a master/slave or sharded database connection, see the “Master/Slave Databases and Sharding” guide.

end

.extension(*extensions) ⇒ Object

Load all Sequel extensions given. Extensions are just files that exist under sequel/extensions in the load path, and are just required. Generally, extensions modify the behavior of Database and/or Dataset, but Sequel ships with some extensions that modify other classes that exist for backwards compatibility. In some cases, requiring an extension modifies classes directly, and in others, it just loads a module that you can extend other classes with. Consult the documentation for each extension you plan on using for usage.

Sequel.extension(:schema_dumper)
Sequel.extension(:pagination, :query)

end

.identifier_input_method=(value) ⇒ Object

Set the method to call on identifiers going into the database. This affects the literalization of identifiers by calling this method on them before they are input. Sequel upcases identifiers in all SQL strings for most databases, so to turn that off:

Sequel.identifier_input_method = nil

to downcase instead:

Sequel.identifier_input_method = :downcase

Other String instance methods work as well.

Set the method to call on identifiers coming out of the database. This affects the literalization of identifiers by calling this method on them when they are retrieved from the database. Sequel downcases identifiers retrieved for most databases, so to turn that off:

Sequel.identifier_output_method = nil

to upcase instead:

Sequel.identifier_output_method = :upcase

Other String instance methods work as well.

.inflections {|Inflections| ... } ⇒ Object

Yield the Inflections module if a block is given, and return the Inflections module.

Yields:

# File 'lib/sequel/model/inflections.rb', line 6

def self.inflections
  yield Inflections if block_given?
  Inflections
end

.json_parser_error_class ⇒ Object

The exception classed raised if there is an error parsing JSON. This can be overridden to use an alternative json implementation.

.migration(&block) ⇒ Object

The preferred method for writing Sequel migrations, using a DSL:

Sequel.migration do
  up do
    create_table(:artists) do
      primary_key :id
      String :name
    end
  end

  down do
    drop_table(:artists)
  end
end

Designed to be used with the Migrator class, part of the migration extension.

.quote_identifiers=(value) ⇒ Object

Set whether to quote identifiers for all databases by default. By default, Sequel quotes identifiers in all SQL strings, so to turn that off:

Sequel.quote_identifiers = false

.recursive_map(array, converter) ⇒ Object

Convert each item in the array to the correct type, handling multi-dimensional arrays. For each element in the array or subarrays, call the converter, unless the value is nil.

      recursive_map(i, converter)
    elsif i
      converter.call(i)
    end
  end
end

.require(files, subdir = nil) ⇒ Object

Require all given files which should be in the same or a subdirectory of this file. If a subdir is given, assume all files are in that subdir. This is used to ensure that the files loaded are from the same version of Sequel as this file.



216
217

# File 'lib/sequel/core.rb', line 216

def self.require(files, subdir=nil)
  Array(files).each{|f| super("#{File.dirname(__FILE__).untaint}/#{"#{subdir}/" if subdir}#{f}")}
end

.single_threaded=(value) ⇒ Object

Set whether Sequel is being used in single threaded mode. By default, Sequel uses a thread-safe connection pool, which isn’t as fast as the single threaded connection pool, and also has some additional thread safety checks. If your program will only have one thread, and speed is a priority, you should set this to true:

Sequel.single_threaded = true

end

.split_symbol(sym) ⇒ Object

Splits the symbol into three parts. Each part will either be a string or nil.

For columns, these parts are the table, column, and alias. For tables, these parts are the schema, table, and alias.

      [nil, s.freeze, nil].freeze
    end
    Sequel.synchronize{SPLIT_SYMBOL_CACHE[sym] = v}
  end
  v
end

.string_to_date(string) ⇒ Object

Converts the given string into a Date object.

Sequel.string_to_date('2010-09-10') # Date.civil(2010, 09, 10)

  rescue => e
    raise convert_exception_class(e, InvalidValue)
  end
end

.string_to_datetime(string) ⇒ Object

Converts the given string into a Time or DateTime object, depending on the value of Sequel.datetime_class.

Sequel.string_to_datetime('2010-09-10 10:20:30') # Time.local(2010, 09, 10, 10, 20, 30)

    else
      datetime_class.parse(string)
    end
  rescue => e
    raise convert_exception_class(e, InvalidValue)
  end
end

.string_to_time(string) ⇒ Object

Converts the given string into a Sequel::SQLTime object.

v = Sequel.string_to_time('10:20:30') # Sequel::SQLTime.parse('10:20:30')
DB.literal(v) # => '10:20:30'

  rescue => e
    raise convert_exception_class(e, InvalidValue)
  end
end

.synchronize(&block) ⇒ Object

Unless in single threaded mode, protects access to any mutable global data structure in Sequel. Uses a non-reentrant mutex, so calling code should be careful.



304
305
306
 
# File 'lib/sequel/core.rb', line 304

def self.synchronize(&block)
  @single_threaded ? yield : @data_mutex.synchronize(&block)
end

.transaction(dbs, opts = OPTS, &block) ⇒ Object

Uses a transaction on all given databases with the given options. This:

Sequel.transaction([DB1, DB2, DB3]){...}

is equivalent to:

DB1.transaction do
  DB2.transaction do
    DB3.transaction do
      ...
    end
  end
end

except that if Sequel::Rollback is raised by the block, the transaction is rolled back on all databases instead of just the last one.

Note that this method cannot guarantee that all databases will commit or rollback. For example, if DB3 commits but attempting to commit on DB2 fails (maybe because foreign key checks are deferred), there is no way to uncommit the changes on DB3. For that kind of support, you need to have two-phase commit/prepared transactions (which Sequel supports on some databases).

.virtual_row(&block) ⇒ Object

If the supplied block takes a single argument, yield an SQL::VirtualRow instance to the block argument. Otherwise, evaluate the block in the context of a SQL::VirtualRow instance.

Sequel.virtual_row{a} # Sequel::SQL::Identifier.new(:a)
Sequel.virtual_row{|o| o.a{}} # Sequel::SQL::Function.new(:a)
