class Sequel::DatasetClass

A dataset represents an SQL query, or more generally, an abstract set of rows in the database. Datasets can be used to create, retrieve, update and delete records.

Query results are always retrieved on demand, so a dataset can be kept around and reused indefinitely (datasets never cache results):

my_posts = DB[:posts].filter(:author => 'david') # no records are retrieved
my_posts.all # records are retrieved
my_posts.all # records are retrieved again

Most dataset methods return modified copies of the dataset (functional style), so you can reuse different datasets to access data:

posts = DB[:posts]
davids_posts = posts.filter(:author => 'david')
old_posts = posts.filter('stamp < ?', Date.today - 7)
davids_old_posts = davids_posts.filter('stamp < ?', Date.today - 7)

Datasets are Enumerable objects, so they can be manipulated using any of the Enumerable methods, such as map, inject, etc.

For more information, see the “Dataset Basics” guide.

1 - Methods that return modified datasets

↑ top

Constants

COLUMN_CHANGE_OPTS

The dataset options that require the removal of cached columns if changed.

CONDITIONED_JOIN_TYPES

These symbols have _join methods created (e.g. inner_join) that call #join_table with the symbol, passing along the arguments and block from the method call.

EXTENSIONS

Hash of extension name symbols to callable objects to load the extension into the Dataset object (usually by extending it with a module defined in the extension).

JOIN_METHODS

All methods that return modified datasets with a joined table added.

NON_SQL_OPTIONS

Which options don't affect the SQL generation. Used by simple_select_all? to determine if this is a simple SELECT * FROM table.

QUERY_METHODS

Methods that return modified datasets

UNCONDITIONED_JOIN_TYPES

These symbols have _join methods created (e.g. natural_join) that call #join_table with the symbol. They only accept a single table argument which is passed to #join_table, and they raise an error if called with a block.

Public Class Methods

register_extension(ext, mod=nil, &block) click to toggle source

Register an extension callback for Dataset objects. ext should be the extension name symbol, and mod should either be a Module that the dataset is extended with, or a callable object called with the database object. If mod is not provided, a block can be provided and is treated as the mod object.

If mod is a module, this also registers a Database extension that will extend all of the database's datasets.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 54
def self.register_extension(ext, mod=nil, &block)
  if mod
    raise(Error, "cannot provide both mod and block to Dataset.register_extension") if block
    if mod.is_a?(Module)
      block = proc{|ds| ds.extend(mod)}
      Sequel::Database.register_extension(ext){|db| db.extend_datasets(mod)}
    else
      block = mod
    end
  end
  Sequel.synchronize{EXTENSIONS[ext] = block}
end

Public Instance Methods

and(*cond, &block) click to toggle source

Adds an further filter to an existing filter using AND. If no filter exists an error is raised. This method is identical to filter except it expects an existing filter.

DB[:table].filter(:a).and(:b) # SELECT * FROM table WHERE a AND b
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 72
def and(*cond, &block)
  unless @opts[:having] || @opts[:where]
    Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Dataset#and will no longer raise for an unfilered dataset starting in Sequel 4.')
    raise(InvalidOperation, "No existing filter found.")
  end
  if @opts[:having]
    Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Dataset#and will no longer modify the HAVING clause starting in Sequel 4.  Switch to using Dataset#having or use the filter_having extension.')
    having(*cond, &block)
  else
    where(*cond, &block)
  end
end
clone(opts = nil) click to toggle source

Returns a new clone of the dataset with with the given options merged. If the options changed include options in COLUMN_CHANGE_OPTS, the cached columns are deleted. This method should generally not be called directly by user code.

Calls superclass method
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 89
def clone(opts = nil)
  c = super()
  if opts
    c.instance_variable_set(:@opts, @opts.merge(opts))
    c.instance_variable_set(:@columns, nil) if @columns && !opts.each_key{|o| break if COLUMN_CHANGE_OPTS.include?(o)}
  else
    c.instance_variable_set(:@opts, @opts.dup)
  end
  c
end
distinct(*args) click to toggle source

Returns a copy of the dataset with the SQL DISTINCT clause. The DISTINCT clause is used to remove duplicate rows from the output. If arguments are provided, uses a DISTINCT ON clause, in which case it will only be distinct on those columns, instead of all returned columns. Raises an error if arguments are given and DISTINCT ON is not supported.

DB[:items].distinct # SQL: SELECT DISTINCT * FROM items
DB[:items].order(:id).distinct(:id) # SQL: SELECT DISTINCT ON (id) * FROM items ORDER BY id
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 109
def distinct(*args)
  raise(InvalidOperation, "DISTINCT ON not supported") if !args.empty? && !supports_distinct_on?
  clone(:distinct => args)
end
except(dataset, opts={}) click to toggle source

Adds an EXCEPT clause using a second dataset object. An EXCEPT compound dataset returns all rows in the current dataset that are not in the given dataset. Raises an InvalidOperation if the operation is not supported. Options:

:alias

Use the given value as the #from_self alias

:all

Set to true to use EXCEPT ALL instead of EXCEPT, so duplicate rows can occur

:from_self

Set to false to not wrap the returned dataset in a #from_self, use with care.

DB[:items].except(DB[:other_items])
# SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM items EXCEPT SELECT * FROM other_items) AS t1

DB[:items].except(DB[:other_items], :all=>true, :from_self=>false)
# SELECT * FROM items EXCEPT ALL SELECT * FROM other_items

DB[:items].except(DB[:other_items], :alias=>:i)
# SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM items EXCEPT SELECT * FROM other_items) AS i
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 131
def except(dataset, opts={})
  unless opts.is_a?(Hash)
    Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Passing a non-hash as the second argument to Dataset#except', "Please switch to an options hash with the :all option")
    opts = {:all=>opts}
  end
  raise(InvalidOperation, "EXCEPT not supported") unless supports_intersect_except?
  raise(InvalidOperation, "EXCEPT ALL not supported") if opts[:all] && !supports_intersect_except_all?
  compound_clone(:except, dataset, opts)
end
exclude(*cond, &block) click to toggle source

Performs the inverse of #filter. Note that if you have multiple filter conditions, this is not the same as a negation of all conditions.

DB[:items].exclude(:category => 'software')
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE (category != 'software')

DB[:items].exclude(:category => 'software', :id=>3)
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE ((category != 'software') OR (id != 3))
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 149
def exclude(*cond, &block)
  Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Dataset#exclude will no longer modify the HAVING clause starting in Sequel 4.  Switch to using Dataset#exclude_having or use the filter_having extension.') if @opts[:having]
  _filter_or_exclude(true, @opts[:having] ? :having : :where, *cond, &block)
end
exclude_having(*cond, &block) click to toggle source

Inverts the given conditions and adds them to the HAVING clause.

DB[:items].select_group(:name).exclude_having{count(name) < 2}
# SELECT name FROM items GROUP BY name HAVING (count(name) >= 2)
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 158
def exclude_having(*cond, &block)
  _filter_or_exclude(true, :having, *cond, &block)
end
exclude_where(*cond, &block) click to toggle source

Inverts the given conditions and adds them to the WHERE clause.

DB[:items].select_group(:name).exclude_where(:category => 'software')
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE (category != 'software')

DB[:items].select_group(:name).
  exclude_having{count(name) < 2}.
  exclude_where(:category => 'software')
# SELECT name FROM items WHERE (category != 'software')
# GROUP BY name HAVING (count(name) >= 2)
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 172
def exclude_where(*cond, &block)
  _filter_or_exclude(true, :where, *cond, &block)
end
extension(*exts) click to toggle source

Return a clone of the dataset loaded with the extensions, see extension!.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 177
def extension(*exts)
  clone.extension!(*exts)
end
filter(*cond, &block) click to toggle source

Returns a copy of the dataset with the given conditions imposed upon it.

If the query already has a HAVING clause, then the conditions are imposed in the HAVING clause. If not, then they are imposed in the WHERE clause.

filter accepts the following argument types:

  • Hash - list of equality/inclusion expressions

  • Array - depends:

    • If first member is a string, assumes the rest of the arguments are parameters and interpolates them into the string.

    • If all members are arrays of length two, treats the same way as a hash, except it allows for duplicate keys to be specified.

    • Otherwise, treats each argument as a separate condition.

  • String - taken literally

  • Symbol - taken as a boolean column argument (e.g. WHERE active)

  • Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression - an existing condition expression, probably created using the Sequel expression filter DSL.

filter also takes a block, which should return one of the above argument types, and is treated the same way. This block yields a virtual row object, which is easy to use to create identifiers and functions. For more details on the virtual row support, see the “Virtual Rows” guide

If both a block and regular argument are provided, they get ANDed together.

Examples:

DB[:items].filter(:id => 3)
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE (id = 3)

DB[:items].filter('price < ?', 100)
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE price < 100

DB[:items].filter([[:id, [1,2,3]], [:id, 0..10]])
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE ((id IN (1, 2, 3)) AND ((id >= 0) AND (id <= 10)))

DB[:items].filter('price < 100')
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE price < 100

DB[:items].filter(:active)
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE :active

DB[:items].filter{price < 100}
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE (price < 100)

Multiple filter calls can be chained for scoping:

software = dataset.filter(:category => 'software').filter{price < 100}
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE ((category = 'software') AND (price < 100))

See the the “Dataset Filtering” guide for more examples and details.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 233
def filter(*cond, &block)
  Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Dataset#filter will no longer modify the HAVING clause starting in Sequel 4.  Switch to using Dataset#having or use the filter_having extension.') if @opts[:having]
  _filter(@opts[:having] ? :having : :where, *cond, &block)
end
for_update() click to toggle source

Returns a cloned dataset with a :update lock style.

DB[:table].for_update # SELECT * FROM table FOR UPDATE
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 241
def for_update
  lock_style(:update)
end
from(*source) click to toggle source

Returns a copy of the dataset with the source changed. If no source is given, removes all tables. If multiple sources are given, it is the same as using a CROSS JOIN (cartesian product) between all tables.

DB[:items].from # SQL: SELECT *
DB[:items].from(:blah) # SQL: SELECT * FROM blah
DB[:items].from(:blah, :foo) # SQL: SELECT * FROM blah, foo
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 252
def from(*source)
  table_alias_num = 0
  sources = []
  ctes = nil
  source.each do |s|
    case s
    when Hash
      Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Dataset#from will no longer treat an input hash as an alias specifier.  Switch to aliasing using Sequel.as or use the hash_aliases extension.')
      s.each{|k,v| sources << SQL::AliasedExpression.new(k,v)}
    when Dataset
      if hoist_cte?(s)
        ctes ||= []
        ctes += s.opts[:with]
        s = s.clone(:with=>nil)
      end
      sources << SQL::AliasedExpression.new(s, dataset_alias(table_alias_num+=1))
    when Symbol
      sch, table, aliaz = split_symbol(s)
      if aliaz
        s = sch ? SQL::QualifiedIdentifier.new(sch, table) : SQL::Identifier.new(table)
        sources << SQL::AliasedExpression.new(s, aliaz.to_sym)
      else
        sources << s
      end
    else
      sources << s
    end
  end
  o = {:from=>sources.empty? ? nil : sources}
  o[:with] = (opts[:with] || []) + ctes if ctes
  o[:num_dataset_sources] = table_alias_num if table_alias_num > 0
  clone(o)
end
from_self(opts={}) click to toggle source

Returns a dataset selecting from the current dataset. Supplying the :alias option controls the alias of the result.

ds = DB[:items].order(:name).select(:id, :name)
# SELECT id,name FROM items ORDER BY name

ds.from_self
# SELECT * FROM (SELECT id, name FROM items ORDER BY name) AS t1

ds.from_self(:alias=>:foo)
# SELECT * FROM (SELECT id, name FROM items ORDER BY name) AS foo
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 297
def from_self(opts={})
  fs = {}
  @opts.keys.each{|k| fs[k] = nil unless NON_SQL_OPTIONS.include?(k)}
  clone(fs).from(opts[:alias] ? as(opts[:alias]) : self)
end
grep(columns, patterns, opts={}) click to toggle source

Match any of the columns to any of the patterns. The terms can be strings (which use LIKE) or regular expressions (which are only supported on MySQL and PostgreSQL). Note that the total number of pattern matches will be Array(columns).length * Array(terms).length, which could cause performance issues.

Options (all are boolean):

:all_columns

All columns must be matched to any of the given patterns.

:all_patterns

All patterns must match at least one of the columns.

:case_insensitive

Use a case insensitive pattern match (the default is case sensitive if the database supports it).

If both :all_columns and :all_patterns are true, all columns must match all patterns.

Examples:

dataset.grep(:a, '%test%')
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE (a LIKE '%test%')

dataset.grep([:a, :b], %w'%test% foo')
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE ((a LIKE '%test%') OR (a LIKE 'foo') OR (b LIKE '%test%') OR (b LIKE 'foo'))

dataset.grep([:a, :b], %w'%foo% %bar%', :all_patterns=>true)
# SELECT * FROM a WHERE (((a LIKE '%foo%') OR (b LIKE '%foo%')) AND ((a LIKE '%bar%') OR (b LIKE '%bar%')))

dataset.grep([:a, :b], %w'%foo% %bar%', :all_columns=>true)
# SELECT * FROM a WHERE (((a LIKE '%foo%') OR (a LIKE '%bar%')) AND ((b LIKE '%foo%') OR (b LIKE '%bar%')))

dataset.grep([:a, :b], %w'%foo% %bar%', :all_patterns=>true, :all_columns=>true)
# SELECT * FROM a WHERE ((a LIKE '%foo%') AND (b LIKE '%foo%') AND (a LIKE '%bar%') AND (b LIKE '%bar%'))
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 334
def grep(columns, patterns, opts={})
  if opts[:all_patterns]
    conds = Array(patterns).map do |pat|
      SQL::BooleanExpression.new(opts[:all_columns] ? :AND : :OR, *Array(columns).map{|c| SQL::StringExpression.like(c, pat, opts)})
    end
    filter(SQL::BooleanExpression.new(opts[:all_patterns] ? :AND : :OR, *conds))
  else
    conds = Array(columns).map do |c|
      SQL::BooleanExpression.new(:OR, *Array(patterns).map{|pat| SQL::StringExpression.like(c, pat, opts)})
    end
    filter(SQL::BooleanExpression.new(opts[:all_columns] ? :AND : :OR, *conds))
  end
end
group(*columns, &block) click to toggle source

Returns a copy of the dataset with the results grouped by the value of the given columns. If a block is given, it is treated as a virtual row block, similar to filter.

DB[:items].group(:id) # SELECT * FROM items GROUP BY id
DB[:items].group(:id, :name) # SELECT * FROM items GROUP BY id, name
DB[:items].group{[a, sum(b)]} # SELECT * FROM items GROUP BY a, sum(b)
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 355
def group(*columns, &block)
  virtual_row_columns(columns, block)
  clone(:group => (columns.compact.empty? ? nil : columns))
end
group_and_count(*columns, &block) click to toggle source

Returns a dataset grouped by the given column with count by group. Column aliases may be supplied, and will be included in the select clause. If a block is given, it is treated as a virtual row block, similar to filter.

Examples:

DB[:items].group_and_count(:name).all
# SELECT name, count(*) AS count FROM items GROUP BY name 
# => [{:name=>'a', :count=>1}, ...]

DB[:items].group_and_count(:first_name, :last_name).all
# SELECT first_name, last_name, count(*) AS count FROM items GROUP BY first_name, last_name
# => [{:first_name=>'a', :last_name=>'b', :count=>1}, ...]

DB[:items].group_and_count(:first_name___name).all
# SELECT first_name AS name, count(*) AS count FROM items GROUP BY first_name
# => [{:name=>'a', :count=>1}, ...]

DB[:items].group_and_count{substr(first_name, 1, 1).as(initial)}.all
# SELECT substr(first_name, 1, 1) AS initial, count(*) AS count FROM items GROUP BY substr(first_name, 1, 1)
# => [{:initial=>'a', :count=>1}, ...]
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 386
def group_and_count(*columns, &block)
  select_group(*columns, &block).select_more(COUNT_OF_ALL_AS_COUNT)
end
group_by(*columns, &block) click to toggle source

Alias of group

# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 361
def group_by(*columns, &block)
  group(*columns, &block)
end
group_cube() click to toggle source

Adds the appropriate CUBE syntax to GROUP BY.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 391
def group_cube
  raise Error, "GROUP BY CUBE not supported on #{db.database_type}" unless supports_group_cube?
  clone(:group_options=>:cube)
end
group_rollup() click to toggle source

Adds the appropriate ROLLUP syntax to GROUP BY.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 397
def group_rollup
  raise Error, "GROUP BY ROLLUP not supported on #{db.database_type}" unless supports_group_rollup?
  clone(:group_options=>:rollup)
end
having(*cond, &block) click to toggle source

Returns a copy of the dataset with the HAVING conditions changed. See filter for argument types.

DB[:items].group(:sum).having(:sum=>10)
# SELECT * FROM items GROUP BY sum HAVING (sum = 10)
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 406
def having(*cond, &block)
  _filter(:having, *cond, &block)
end
intersect(dataset, opts={}) click to toggle source

Adds an INTERSECT clause using a second dataset object. An INTERSECT compound dataset returns all rows in both the current dataset and the given dataset. Raises an InvalidOperation if the operation is not supported. Options:

:alias

Use the given value as the #from_self alias

:all

Set to true to use INTERSECT ALL instead of INTERSECT, so duplicate rows can occur

:from_self

Set to false to not wrap the returned dataset in a #from_self, use with care.

DB[:items].intersect(DB[:other_items])
# SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM items INTERSECT SELECT * FROM other_items) AS t1

DB[:items].intersect(DB[:other_items], :all=>true, :from_self=>false)
# SELECT * FROM items INTERSECT ALL SELECT * FROM other_items

DB[:items].intersect(DB[:other_items], :alias=>:i)
# SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM items INTERSECT SELECT * FROM other_items) AS i

  raise(InvalidOperation, "INTERSECT ALL not supported") if opts[:all] && !supports_intersect_except_all?
  compound_clone(:intersect, dataset, opts)
end
invert() click to toggle source

Inverts the current filter.

DB[:items].filter(:category => 'software').invert
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE (category != 'software')

DB[:items].filter(:category => 'software', :id=>3).invert
# SELECT * FROM items WHERE ((category != 'software') OR (id != 3))

join(*args, &block) click to toggle source

Alias of inner_join

# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 457
def join(*args, &block)
  inner_join(*args, &block)
end
join_table(type, table, expr=nil, options={}) { |table_name, last_alias, opts || []| ... } click to toggle source

Returns a joined dataset. Not usually called directly, users should use the appropriate join method (e.g. join, left_join, natural_join, cross_join) which fills in the type argument.

Takes the following arguments:

  • type - The type of join to do (e.g. :inner)

  • table - Depends on type:

    • Dataset - a subselect is performed with an alias of tN for some value of N

    • String, Symbol: table

  • expr - specifies conditions, depends on type:

    • Hash, Array of two element arrays - Assumes key (1st arg) is column of joined table (unless already qualified), and value (2nd arg) is column of the last joined or primary table (or the :implicit_qualifier option). To specify multiple conditions on a single joined table column, you must use an array. Uses a JOIN with an ON clause.

    • Array - If all members of the array are symbols, considers them as columns and uses a JOIN with a USING clause. Most databases will remove duplicate columns from the result set if this is used.

    • nil - If a block is not given, doesn't use ON or USING, so the JOIN should be a NATURAL or CROSS join. If a block is given, uses an ON clause based on the block, see below.

    • Everything else - pretty much the same as a using the argument in a call to filter, so strings are considered literal, symbols specify boolean columns, and Sequel expressions can be used. Uses a JOIN with an ON clause.

  • options - a hash of options, with any of the following keys:

    • :table_alias - the name of the table's alias when joining, necessary for joining to the same table more than once. No alias is used by default.

    • :implicit_qualifier - The name to use for qualifying implicit conditions. By default, the last joined or primary table is used.

    • :qualify - Can be set to false to not do any implicit qualification. Can be set to :deep to use the Qualifier AST Transformer, which will attempt to qualify subexpressions of the expression tree. Defaults to the value of default_join_table_qualification.

  • block - The block argument should only be given if a JOIN with an ON clause is used, in which case it yields the table alias/name for the table currently being joined, the table alias/name for the last joined (or first table), and an array of previous SQL::JoinClause. Unlike filter, this block is not treated as a virtual row block.

Examples:

DB[:a].join_table(:cross, :b)
# SELECT * FROM a CROSS JOIN b

DB[:a].join_table(:inner, DB[:b], :c=>d)
# SELECT * FROM a INNER JOIN (SELECT * FROM b) AS t1 ON (t1.c = a.d)

lock_style(style) click to toggle source

Returns a cloned dataset with the given lock style. If style is a string, it will be used directly. You should never pass a string to this method that is derived from user input, as that can lead to SQL injection.

A symbol may be used for database independent locking behavior, but all supported symbols have separate methods (e.g. #for_update).

order(*columns, &block) click to toggle source

Returns a copy of the dataset with the order changed. If the dataset has an existing order, it is ignored and overwritten with this order. If a nil is given the returned dataset has no order. This can accept multiple arguments of varying kinds, such as SQL functions. If a block is given, it is treated as a virtual row block, similar to filter.

end
returning(*values) click to toggle source

Modify the RETURNING clause, only supported on a few databases. If returning is used, instead of insert returning the autogenerated primary key or update/delete returning the number of modified rows, results are returned using fetch_rows.

DB[:items].returning # RETURNING *
DB[:items].returning(nil) # RETURNING NULL

  select(*(cur_sel + columns), &block)
end
select_group(*columns, &block) click to toggle source

Set both the select and group clauses with the given columns. Column aliases may be supplied, and will be included in the select clause. This also takes a virtual row block similar to filter.

DB[:items].select_group(:a, :b)
# SELECT a, b FROM items GROUP BY a, b

end
server(servr) click to toggle source

Set the server for this dataset to use. Used to pick a specific database shard to run a query against, or to override the default (where SELECT uses :read_only database and all other queries use the :default database). This method is always available but is only useful when database sharding is being used.

end
set_defaults(hash) click to toggle source

Set the default values for insert and update statements. The values hash passed to insert or update are merged into this hash, so any values in the hash passed to insert or update will override values passed to this method.

DB[:items].set_defaults(:a=>'a', :c=>'c').insert(:a=>'d', :b=>'b')

set_overrides(hash) click to toggle source

Set values that override hash arguments given to insert and update statements. This hash is merged into the hash provided to insert or update, so values will override any values given in the insert/update hashes.

DB[:items].set_overrides(:a=>'a', :c=>'c').insert(:a=>'d', :b=>'b')
# INSERT INTO items (a, c, b) VALUES ('a', 'c', 'b')

  clone(:overrides=>hash.merge(@opts[:overrides]||{}))
end
unbind() click to toggle source

Unbind bound variables from this dataset's filter and return an array of two objects. The first object is a modified dataset where the filter has been replaced with one that uses bound variable placeholders. The second object is the hash of unbound variables. You can then prepare and execute (or just call) the dataset with the bound variables to get results.

ds, bv = DB[:items].filter(:a=>1).unbind
ds # SELECT * FROM items WHERE (a = $a)
bv #  {:a => 1}
ds.call(:select, bv)
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 924

def ungrouped
  clone(:group => nil, :having => nil)
end
union(dataset, opts={}) click to toggle source

Adds a UNION clause using a second dataset object. A UNION compound dataset returns all rows in either the current dataset or the given dataset. Options:

:alias

Use the given value as the #from_self alias

:all

Set to true to use UNION ALL instead of UNION, so duplicate rows can occur

:from_self

Set to false to not wrap the returned dataset in a #from_self, use with care.

DB[:items].union(DB[:other_items])
# SELECT * FROM (SELECT * FROM items UNION SELECT * FROM other_items) AS t1

DB[:items].union(DB[:other_items], :all=>true, :from_self=>false)

end
with_sql(sql, *args) click to toggle source

Returns a copy of the dataset with the static SQL used. This is useful if you want to keep the same row_proc/graph, but change the SQL used to custom SQL.

DB[:items].with_sql('SELECT * FROM foo') # SELECT * FROM foo

You can use placeholders in your SQL and provide arguments for those placeholders:

DB[:items].with_sql('SELECT ? FROM foo', 1) # SELECT 1 FROM foo

You can also provide a method name and arguments to call to get the SQL:

DB[:items].with_sql(:insert_sql, :b=>1) # INSERT INTO items (b) VALUES (1)
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 1054
def with_sql(sql, *args)

hoist_cte(ds) click to toggle source

Return two datasets, the first a clone of the receiver with the WITH clause from the given dataset added to it, and the second a clone of the given dataset with the WITH clause removed.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 1154
def hoist_cte(ds)
  [clone(:with => (opts[:with] || []) + ds.opts[:with]), ds.clone(:with => nil)]
end
hoist_cte?(ds) click to toggle source

Whether CTEs need to be hoisted from the given ds into the current ds.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 1159
def hoist_cte?(ds)
  ds.is_a?(Dataset) && ds.opts[:with] && !supports_cte_in_subqueries?
end
invert_order(order) click to toggle source

Inverts the given order by breaking it into a list of column references and inverting them.

DB[:items].invert_order([Sequel.desc(:id)]]) #=> [Sequel.asc(:id)]
DB[:items].invert_order([:category, Sequel.desc(:price)]) #=> [Sequel.desc(:category), Sequel.asc(:price)]
# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 1168
def invert_order(order)

end
virtual_row_columns(columns, block) click to toggle source

Treat the block as a virtual_row block if not nil and add the resulting columns to the columns array (modifies columns).

# File lib/sequel/dataset/query.rb, line 1188
def virtual_row_columns(columns, block)
  if block
    v = Sequel.virtual_row(&block)
    if v.is_a?(Array)

Constants

ACTION_METHODS

Action methods defined by Sequel that execute code on the database.

Public Instance Methods

<<(arg) click to toggle source

Inserts the given argument into the database. Returns self so it can be used safely when chaining:

DB[:items] << {:id=>0, :name=>'Zero'} << DB[:old_items].select(:id, name)
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 23
def <<(arg)
  insert(arg)
  self
end
[](*conditions) click to toggle source

Returns the first record matching the conditions. Examples:

DB[:table][:id=>1] # SELECT * FROM table WHERE (id = 1) LIMIT 1
# => {:id=1}
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 32
def [](*conditions)
  raise(Error, ARRAY_ACCESS_ERROR_MSG) if (conditions.length == 1 and conditions.first.is_a?(Integer)) or conditions.length == 0
  first(*conditions)
end
[]=(conditions, values) click to toggle source

Update all records matching the conditions with the values specified. Returns the number of rows affected.

DB[:table][:id=>1] = {:id=>2} # UPDATE table SET id = 2 WHERE id = 1
# => 1 # number of rows affected
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 42
def []=(conditions, values)
  Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Dataset#[]=', 'Please load the sequel_3_dataset_methods extension to continue using it')
  filter(conditions).update(values)
end
all(&block) click to toggle source

Returns an array with all records in the dataset. If a block is given, the array is iterated over after all items have been loaded.

DB[:table].all # SELECT * FROM table
# => [{:id=>1, ...}, {:id=>2, ...}, ...]

# Iterate over all rows in the table
DB[:table].all{|row| p row}
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 55
def all(&block)
  a = []
  each{|r| a << r}
  post_load(a)
  a.each(&block) if block
  a
end
avg(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new)) click to toggle source

Returns the average value for the given column/expression. Uses a virtual row block if no argument is given.

DB[:table].avg(:number) # SELECT avg(number) FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 3
DB[:table].avg{function(column)} # SELECT avg(function(column)) FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 1
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 70
def avg(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new))
  aggregate_dataset.get{avg(column).as(:avg)}
end
columns() click to toggle source

Returns the columns in the result set in order as an array of symbols. If the columns are currently cached, returns the cached value. Otherwise, a SELECT query is performed to retrieve a single row in order to get the columns.

If you are looking for all columns for a single table and maybe some information about each column (e.g. database type), see Database#schema.

DB[:table].columns
# => [:id, :name]
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 83
def columns
  return @columns if @columns
  ds = unfiltered.unordered.naked.clone(:distinct => nil, :limit => 1, :offset=>nil)
  ds.each{break}
  @columns = ds.instance_variable_get(:@columns)
  @columns || []
end
columns!() click to toggle source

Ignore any cached column information and perform a query to retrieve a row in order to get the columns.

DB[:table].columns!
# => [:id, :name]
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 96
def columns!
  @columns = nil
  columns
end
count(arg=(no_arg=true), &block) click to toggle source

Returns the number of records in the dataset. If an argument is provided, it is used as the argument to count. If a block is provided, it is treated as a virtual row, and the result is used as the argument to count.

DB[:table].count # SELECT count(*) AS count FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 3
DB[:table].count(:column) # SELECT count(column) AS count FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 2
DB[:table].count{foo(column)} # SELECT count(foo(column)) AS count FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 1
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 112
def count(arg=(no_arg=true), &block)
  if no_arg
    if block
      arg = Sequel.virtual_row(&block)
      aggregate_dataset.get{count(arg).as(count)}
    else
      aggregate_dataset.get{count(:*){}.as(count)}.to_i
    end
  elsif block
    raise Error, 'cannot provide both argument and block to Dataset#count'
  else
    aggregate_dataset.get{count(arg).as(count)}
  end
end
delete(&block) click to toggle source

Deletes the records in the dataset. The returned value should be number of records deleted, but that is adapter dependent.

DB[:table].delete # DELETE * FROM table
# => 3
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 132
def delete(&block)
  sql = delete_sql
  if uses_returning?(:delete)
    returning_fetch_rows(sql, &block)
  else
    execute_dui(sql)
  end
end
each() { |r| ... } click to toggle source

Iterates over the records in the dataset as they are yielded from the database adapter, and returns self.

DB[:table].each{|row| p row} # SELECT * FROM table

Note that this method is not safe to use on many adapters if you are running additional queries inside the provided block. If you are running queries inside the block, you should use all instead of each for the outer queries, or use a separate thread or shard inside each.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 150
def each
  if @opts[:graph]
    graph_each{|r| yield r}
  elsif row_proc = @row_proc
    fetch_rows(select_sql){|r| yield row_proc.call(r)}
  else
    fetch_rows(select_sql){|r| yield r}
  end
  self
end
empty?() click to toggle source

Returns true if no records exist in the dataset, false otherwise

DB[:table].empty? # SELECT 1 AS one FROM table LIMIT 1
# => false
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 165
def empty?
  get(Sequel::SQL::AliasedExpression.new(1, :one)).nil?
end
fetch_rows(sql) click to toggle source

Executes a select query and fetches records, yielding each record to the supplied block. The yielded records should be hashes with symbol keys. This method should probably should not be called by user code, use each instead.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 173
def fetch_rows(sql)
  Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Dataset#fetch_rows default implementation and Sequel::NotImplemented', 'All dataset instances can be assumed to implement fetch_rows')
  raise NotImplemented, NOTIMPL_MSG
end
first(*args, &block) click to toggle source

If a integer argument is given, it is interpreted as a limit, and then returns all matching records up to that limit. If no argument is passed, it returns the first matching record. If any other type of argument(s) is passed, it is given to filter and the first matching record is returned. If a block is given, it is used to filter the dataset before returning anything.

If there are no records in the dataset, returns nil (or an empty array if an integer argument is given).

Examples:

DB[:table].first # SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 1
# => {:id=>7}

DB[:table].first(2) # SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 2
# => [{:id=>6}, {:id=>4}]

DB[:table].first(:id=>2) # SELECT * FROM table WHERE (id = 2) LIMIT 1
# => {:id=>2}

DB[:table].first("id = 3") # SELECT * FROM table WHERE (id = 3) LIMIT 1
# => {:id=>3}

DB[:table].first("id = ?", 4) # SELECT * FROM table WHERE (id = 4) LIMIT 1
# => {:id=>4}

DB[:table].first{id > 2} # SELECT * FROM table WHERE (id > 2) LIMIT 1
# => {:id=>5}

DB[:table].first("id > ?", 4){id < 6} # SELECT * FROM table WHERE ((id > 4) AND (id < 6)) LIMIT 1
# => {:id=>5}

DB[:table].first(2){id < 2} # SELECT * FROM table WHERE (id < 2) LIMIT 2
# => [{:id=>1}]
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 213
def first(*args, &block)
  ds = block ? filter(&block) : self

  if args.empty?
    ds.single_record
  else
    args = (args.size == 1) ? args.first : args
    if args.is_a?(Integer)
      ds.limit(args).all
    else
      ds.filter(args).single_record
    end
  end
end
first!(*args, &block) click to toggle source

Calls first. If first returns nil (signaling that no row matches), raise a Sequel::NoMatchingRow exception.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 230
def first!(*args, &block)
  first(*args, &block) || raise(Sequel::NoMatchingRow)
end
get(column=(no_arg=true; nil), &block) click to toggle source

Return the column value for the first matching record in the dataset. Raises an error if both an argument and block is given.

DB[:table].get(:id) # SELECT id FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 3

ds.get{sum(id)} # SELECT sum(id) FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 6

You can pass an array of arguments to return multiple arguments, but you must make sure each element in the array has an alias that Sequel can determine:

DB[:table].get([:id, :name]) # SELECT id, name FROM table LIMIT 1
# => [3, 'foo']

DB[:table].get{[sum(id).as(sum), name]} # SELECT sum(id) AS sum, name FROM table LIMIT 1
# => [6, 'foo']
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 252
def get(column=(no_arg=true; nil), &block)
  ds = naked
  if block
    raise(Error, ARG_BLOCK_ERROR_MSG) unless no_arg
    ds = ds.select(&block)
    column = ds.opts[:select]
    column = nil if column.is_a?(Array) && column.length < 2
  else
    ds = if column.is_a?(Array)
      ds.select(*column)
    else
      ds.select(column)
    end
  end

  if column.is_a?(Array)
   if r = ds.single_record
     r.values_at(*hash_key_symbols(column))
   end
  else
    ds.single_value
  end
end
import(columns, values, opts={}) click to toggle source

Inserts multiple records into the associated table. This method can be used to efficiently insert a large number of records into a table in a single query if the database supports it. Inserts are automatically wrapped in a transaction.

This method is called with a columns array and an array of value arrays:

DB[:table].import([:x, :y], [[1, 2], [3, 4]])
# INSERT INTO table (x, y) VALUES (1, 2) 
# INSERT INTO table (x, y) VALUES (3, 4)

This method also accepts a dataset instead of an array of value arrays:

DB[:table].import([:x, :y], DB[:table2].select(:a, :b))
# INSERT INTO table (x, y) SELECT a, b FROM table2

Options:

:commit_every

Open a new transaction for every given number of records. For example, if you provide a value of 50, will commit after every 50 records.

:server

Set the server/shard to use for the transaction and insert queries.

:slice

Same as :commit_every, :commit_every takes precedence.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 299
def import(columns, values, opts={})
  return @db.transaction{insert(columns, values)} if values.is_a?(Dataset)

  return if values.empty?
  raise(Error, IMPORT_ERROR_MSG) if columns.empty?
  ds = opts[:server] ? server(opts[:server]) : self
  
  if slice_size = opts[:commit_every] || opts[:slice]
    offset = 0
    rows = []
    while offset < values.length
      rows << ds._import(columns, values[offset, slice_size], opts)
      offset += slice_size
    end
    rows.flatten
  else
    ds._import(columns, values, opts)
  end
end
insert(*values, &block) click to toggle source

Inserts values into the associated table. The returned value is generally the value of the primary key for the inserted row, but that is adapter dependent.

insert handles a number of different argument formats:

no arguments or single empty hash

Uses DEFAULT VALUES

single hash

Most common format, treats keys as columns an values as values

single array

Treats entries as values, with no columns

two arrays

Treats first array as columns, second array as values

single Dataset

Treats as an insert based on a selection from the dataset given, with no columns

array and dataset

Treats as an insert based on a selection from the dataset given, with the columns given by the array.

Examples:

DB[:items].insert
# INSERT INTO items DEFAULT VALUES

DB[:items].insert({})
# INSERT INTO items DEFAULT VALUES

DB[:items].insert([1,2,3])
# INSERT INTO items VALUES (1, 2, 3)

DB[:items].insert([:a, :b], [1,2])
# INSERT INTO items (a, b) VALUES (1, 2)

DB[:items].insert(:a => 1, :b => 2)
# INSERT INTO items (a, b) VALUES (1, 2)

DB[:items].insert(DB[:old_items])
# INSERT INTO items SELECT * FROM old_items

DB[:items].insert([:a, :b], DB[:old_items])
# INSERT INTO items (a, b) SELECT * FROM old_items
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 354
def insert(*values, &block)
  sql = insert_sql(*values)
  if uses_returning?(:insert)
    returning_fetch_rows(sql, &block)
  else
    execute_insert(sql)
  end
end
insert_multiple(array, &block) click to toggle source

Inserts multiple values. If a block is given it is invoked for each item in the given array before inserting it. See multi_insert as a possibly faster version that may be able to insert multiple records in one SQL statement (if supported by the database). Returns an array of primary keys of inserted rows.

DB[:table].insert_multiple([{:x=>1}, {:x=>2}])
# => [4, 5]
# INSERT INTO table (x) VALUES (1)
# INSERT INTO table (x) VALUES (2)

DB[:table].insert_multiple([{:x=>1}, {:x=>2}]){|row| row[:y] = row[:x] * 2; row }
# => [6, 7]
# INSERT INTO table (x, y) VALUES (1, 2)
# INSERT INTO table (x, y) VALUES (2, 4)
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 378
def insert_multiple(array, &block)
  Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Dataset#insert_multiple', 'Please load the sequel_3_dataset_methods extension to continue using it')
  if block
    array.map{|i| insert(block.call(i))}
  else
    array.map{|i| insert(i)}
  end
end
interval(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new)) click to toggle source

Returns the interval between minimum and maximum values for the given column/expression. Uses a virtual row block if no argument is given.

DB[:table].interval(:id) # SELECT (max(id) - min(id)) FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 6
DB[:table].interval{function(column)} # SELECT (max(function(column)) - min(function(column))) FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 7
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 394
def interval(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new))
  aggregate_dataset.get{(max(column) - min(column)).as(:interval)}
end
last(*args, &block) click to toggle source

Reverses the order and then runs first with the given arguments and block. Note that this will not necessarily give you the last record in the dataset, unless you have an unambiguous order. If there is not currently an order for this dataset, raises an Error.

DB[:table].order(:id).last # SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1
# => {:id=>10}

DB[:table].order(Sequel.desc(:id)).last(2) # SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY id ASC LIMIT 2
# => [{:id=>1}, {:id=>2}]
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 408
def last(*args, &block)
  raise(Error, 'No order specified') unless @opts[:order]
  reverse.first(*args, &block)
end
map(column=nil, &block) click to toggle source

Maps column values for each record in the dataset (if a column name is given), or performs the stock mapping functionality of Enumerable otherwise. Raises an Error if both an argument and block are given.

DB[:table].map(:id) # SELECT * FROM table
# => [1, 2, 3, ...]

DB[:table].map{|r| r[:id] * 2} # SELECT * FROM table
# => [2, 4, 6, ...]

You can also provide an array of column names:

DB[:table].map([:id, :name]) # SELECT * FROM table
# => [[1, 'A'], [2, 'B'], [3, 'C'], ...]
Calls superclass method
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 427
def map(column=nil, &block)
  if column
    raise(Error, ARG_BLOCK_ERROR_MSG) if block
    return naked.map(column) if row_proc
    if column.is_a?(Array)
      super(){|r| r.values_at(*column)}
    else
      super(){|r| r[column]}
    end
  else
    super(&block)
  end
end
max(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new)) click to toggle source

Returns the maximum value for the given column/expression. Uses a virtual row block if no argument is given.

DB[:table].max(:id) # SELECT max(id) FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 10
DB[:table].max{function(column)} # SELECT max(function(column)) FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 7
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 448
def max(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new))
  aggregate_dataset.get{max(column).as(:max)}
end
min(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new)) click to toggle source

Returns the minimum value for the given column/expression. Uses a virtual row block if no argument is given.

DB[:table].min(:id) # SELECT min(id) FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 1
DB[:table].min{function(column)} # SELECT min(function(column)) FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 0
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 459
def min(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new))
  aggregate_dataset.get{min(column).as(:min)}
end
multi_insert(hashes, opts={}) click to toggle source

This is a front end for import that allows you to submit an array of hashes instead of arrays of columns and values:

DB[:table].multi_insert([{:x => 1}, {:x => 2}])
# INSERT INTO table (x) VALUES (1)
# INSERT INTO table (x) VALUES (2)

Be aware that all hashes should have the same keys if you use this calling method, otherwise some columns could be missed or set to null instead of to default values.

This respects the same options as import.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 475
def multi_insert(hashes, opts={})
  return if hashes.empty?
  columns = hashes.first.keys
  import(columns, hashes.map{|h| columns.map{|c| h[c]}}, opts)
end
paged_each(opts={}) { |row| ... } click to toggle source

Yields each row in the dataset, but interally uses multiple queries as needed with limit and offset to process the entire result set without keeping all rows in the dataset in memory, even if the underlying driver buffers all query results in memory.

Because this uses multiple queries internally, in order to remain consistent, it also uses a transaction internally. Additionally, to make sure that all rows in the dataset are yielded and none are yielded twice, the dataset must have an unambiguous order. Sequel requires that datasets using this method have an order, but it cannot ensure that the order is unambiguous.

Options:

:rows_per_fetch

The number of rows to fetch per query. Defaults to 1000.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 494
def paged_each(opts={})
  unless @opts[:order]
    raise Sequel::Error, "Dataset#paged_each requires the dataset be ordered"
  end

  total_limit = @opts[:limit]
  offset = @opts[:offset] || 0

  if server = @opts[:server]
    opts = opts.merge(:server=>server)
  end

  rows_per_fetch = opts[:rows_per_fetch] || 1000
  num_rows_yielded = rows_per_fetch
  total_rows = 0

  db.transaction(opts) do
    while num_rows_yielded == rows_per_fetch && (total_limit.nil? || total_rows < total_limit)
      if total_limit && total_rows + rows_per_fetch > total_limit
        rows_per_fetch = total_limit - total_rows
      end

      num_rows_yielded = 0
      limit(rows_per_fetch, offset).each do |row|
        num_rows_yielded += 1
        total_rows += 1 if total_limit
        yield row
      end

      offset += rows_per_fetch
    end
  end

  self
end
range(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new)) click to toggle source

Returns a Range instance made from the minimum and maximum values for the given column/expression. Uses a virtual row block if no argument is given.

DB[:table].range(:id) # SELECT max(id) AS v1, min(id) AS v2 FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 1..10
DB[:table].interval{function(column)} # SELECT max(function(column)) AS v1, min(function(column)) AS v2 FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 0..7
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 537
def range(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new))
  if r = aggregate_dataset.select{[min(column).as(v1), max(column).as(v2)]}.first
    (r[:v1]..r[:v2])
  end
end
select_hash(key_column, value_column) click to toggle source

Returns a hash with key_column values as keys and value_column values as values. Similar to #to_hash, but only selects the columns given.

DB[:table].select_hash(:id, :name) # SELECT id, name FROM table
# => {1=>'a', 2=>'b', ...}

You can also provide an array of column names for either the key_column, the value column, or both:

DB[:table].select_hash([:id, :foo], [:name, :bar]) # SELECT * FROM table
# {[1, 3]=>['a', 'c'], [2, 4]=>['b', 'd'], ...}

When using this method, you must be sure that each expression has an alias that Sequel can determine. Usually you can do this by calling the as method on the expression and providing an alias.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 558
def select_hash(key_column, value_column)
  _select_hash(:to_hash, key_column, value_column)
end
select_hash_groups(key_column, value_column) click to toggle source

Returns a hash with key_column values as keys and an array of value_column values. Similar to #to_hash_groups, but only selects the columns given.

DB[:table].select_hash(:name, :id) # SELECT id, name FROM table
# => {'a'=>[1, 4, ...], 'b'=>[2, ...], ...}

You can also provide an array of column names for either the key_column, the value column, or both:

DB[:table].select_hash([:first, :middle], [:last, :id]) # SELECT * FROM table
# {['a', 'b']=>[['c', 1], ['d', 2], ...], ...}

When using this method, you must be sure that each expression has an alias that Sequel can determine. Usually you can do this by calling the as method on the expression and providing an alias.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 577
def select_hash_groups(key_column, value_column)
  _select_hash(:to_hash_groups, key_column, value_column)
end
select_map(column=nil, &block) click to toggle source

Selects the column given (either as an argument or as a block), and returns an array of all values of that column in the dataset. If you give a block argument that returns an array with multiple entries, the contents of the resulting array are undefined. Raises an Error if called with both an argument and a block.

DB[:table].select_map(:id) # SELECT id FROM table
# => [3, 5, 8, 1, ...]

DB[:table].select_map{id * 2} # SELECT (id * 2) FROM table
# => [6, 10, 16, 2, ...]

You can also provide an array of column names:

DB[:table].select_map([:id, :name]) # SELECT id, name FROM table
# => [[1, 'A'], [2, 'B'], [3, 'C'], ...]

If you provide an array of expressions, you must be sure that each entry in the array has an alias that Sequel can determine. Usually you can do this by calling the as method on the expression and providing an alias.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 601
def select_map(column=nil, &block)
  _select_map(column, false, &block)
end
select_order_map(column=nil, &block) click to toggle source

The same as #select_map, but in addition orders the array by the column.

DB[:table].select_order_map(:id) # SELECT id FROM table ORDER BY id
# => [1, 2, 3, 4, ...]

DB[:table].select_order_map{id * 2} # SELECT (id * 2) FROM table ORDER BY (id * 2)
# => [2, 4, 6, 8, ...]

You can also provide an array of column names:

DB[:table].select_order_map([:id, :name]) # SELECT id, name FROM table ORDER BY id, name
# => [[1, 'A'], [2, 'B'], [3, 'C'], ...]

If you provide an array of expressions, you must be sure that each entry in the array has an alias that Sequel can determine. Usually you can do this by calling the as method on the expression and providing an alias.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 621
def select_order_map(column=nil, &block)
  _select_map(column, true, &block)
end
set(*args) click to toggle source

Alias for update, but not aliased directly so subclasses don't have to override both methods.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 627
def set(*args)
  Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Dataset#set', 'Please switch to Dataset#update or load the sequel_3_dataset_methods extension to continue using it')
  update(*args)
end
single_record() click to toggle source

Returns the first record in the dataset, or nil if the dataset has no records. Users should probably use first instead of this method.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 635
def single_record
  clone(:limit=>1).each{|r| return r}
  nil
end
single_value() click to toggle source

Returns the first value of the first record in the dataset. Returns nil if dataset is empty. Users should generally use get instead of this method.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 643
def single_value
  if r = naked.ungraphed.single_record
    r.values.first
  end
end
sum(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new)) click to toggle source

Returns the sum for the given column/expression. Uses a virtual row block if no column is given.

# => 55
DB[:table].sum{function(column)} # SELECT sum(function(column)) FROM table LIMIT 1
# => 10
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 656
def sum(column=Sequel.virtual_row(&Proc.new))
  aggregate_dataset.get{sum(column).as(:sum)}
end
to_csv(include_column_titles = true) click to toggle source

Returns a string in CSV format containing the dataset records. By default the CSV representation includes the column titles in the first line. You can turn that off by passing false as the include_column_titles argument.

This does not use a CSV library or handle quoting of values in any way. If any values in any of the rows could include commas or line endings, you shouldn't use this.

puts DB[:table].to_csv # SELECT * FROM table
# id,name
# 1,Jim
# 2,Bob
# File lib/sequel/dataset/actions.rb, line 673
def to_csv(include_column_titles = true)

  csv
end
to_hash(key_column, value_column = nil) click to toggle source

Returns a hash with one column used as key and another used as value. If rows have duplicate values for the key column, the latter row(s) will overwrite the value of the previous row(s). If the value_column is not given or nil, uses the entire hash as the value.

DB[:table].to_hash(:id, :name) # SELECT * FROM table
# {1=>'Jim', 2=>'Bob', ...}

DB[:table].to_hash(:id) # SELECT * FROM table
# {1=>{:id=>1, :name=>'Jim'}, 2=>{:id=>2, :name=>'Bob'}, ...}

You can also provide an array of column names for either the key_column, the value column, or both:

DB[:table].to_hash([:id, :foo], [:name, :bar]) # SELECT * FROM table

end
to_hash_groups(key_column, value_column = nil) click to toggle source

Returns a hash with one column used as key and the values being an array of column values. If the value_column is not given or nil, uses the entire hash as the value.

5 - Methods related to dataset graphing

↑ top

Public Instance Methods

add_graph_aliases(graph_aliases) click to toggle source

Adds the given graph aliases to the list of graph aliases to use, unlike set_graph_aliases, which replaces the list (the equivalent of select_more when graphing). See set_graph_aliases.

DB[:table].add_graph_aliases(:some_alias=>[:table, :column])
# SELECT ..., table.column AS some_alias
# File lib/sequel/dataset/graph.rb, line 16
def add_graph_aliases(graph_aliases)
  unless ga = opts[:graph_aliases]
    unless opts[:graph] && (ga = opts[:graph][:column_aliases])
      Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate('Calling Dataset#add_graph_aliases before #graph or #set_graph_aliases', 'Please call it after #graph or #set_graph_aliases')
    end
  end
  columns, graph_aliases = graph_alias_columns(graph_aliases)
  select_more(*columns).clone(:graph_aliases => ga.merge(graph_aliases))
end
graph(dataset, join_conditions = nil, options = {}, &block) click to toggle source

Similar to #join_table, but uses unambiguous aliases for selected columns and keeps metadata about the aliases for use in other methods.

Arguments:

dataset

Can be a symbol (specifying a table), another dataset, or an object that responds to dataset and returns a symbol or a dataset

join_conditions

Any condition(s) allowed by join_table.

block

A block that is passed to join_table.

Options:

:from_self_alias

The alias to use when the receiver is not a graphed dataset but it contains multiple FROM tables or a JOIN. In this case, the receiver is wrapped in a #from_self before graphing, and this option determines the alias to use.

:implicit_qualifier

The qualifier of implicit conditions, see join_table.

:join_type

The type of join to use (passed to join_table). Defaults to :left_outer.

:qualify

The type of qualification to do, see join_table.

:select

An array of columns to select. When not used, selects all columns in the given dataset. When set to false, selects no columns and is like simply joining the tables, though graph keeps some metadata about the join that makes it important to use graph instead of join_table.

:table_alias

The alias to use for the table. If not specified, doesn't alias the table. You will get an error if the the alias (or table) name is used more than once.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/graph.rb, line 51
def graph(dataset, join_conditions = nil, options = {}, &block)

set_graph_aliases(graph_aliases) click to toggle source

This allows you to manually specify the graph aliases to use when using graph. You can use it to only select certain columns, and have those columns mapped to specific aliases in the result set. This is the equivalent of select for a graphed dataset, and must be used instead of select whenever graphing is used.

graph_aliases

Should be a hash with keys being symbols of column aliases, and values being either symbols or arrays with one to three elements. If the value is a symbol, it is assumed to be the same as a one element array containing that symbol. The first element of the array should be the table alias symbol. The second should be the actual column name symbol. If the array only has a single element the column name symbol will be assumed to be the same as the corresponding hash key. If the array has a third element, it is used as the value returned, instead of table_alias.column_name.

DB[:artists].graph(:albums, :artist_id=>:id).
  set_graph_aliases(:name=>:artists,
                    :album_name=>[:albums, :name],

Setup mutation (e.g. filter!) methods. These operate the same as the non-! methods, but replace the options of the current dataset with the options of the resulting dataset.

Do not call this method with untrusted input, as that can result in arbitrary code execution.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/mutation.rb, line 17
def self.def_mutation_method(*meths)
  options = meths.pop if meths.last.is_a?(Hash)
  mod = options[:module] if options
  mod ||= self
  meths.each do |meth|
    mod.class_eval("def #{meth}!(*args, &block); mutation_method(:#{meth}, *args, &block) end", __FILE__, __LINE__)
  end
end

Public Instance Methods

extension!(*exts) click to toggle source

Load an extension into the receiver. In addition to requiring the extension file, this also modifies the dataset to work with the extension (usually extending it with a module defined in the extension file). If no related extension file exists or the extension does not have specific support for Database objects, an Error will be raised. Returns self.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/mutation.rb, line 47
def extension!(*exts)
  Sequel.extension(*exts)
  exts.each do |ext|
    if pr = Sequel.synchronize{EXTENSIONS[ext]}
      pr.call(self)
    else
      raise(Error, "Extension #{ext} does not have specific support handling individual datasets")
    end
  end
  self
end
from_self!(*args, &block) click to toggle source

Avoid self-referential dataset by cloning.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/mutation.rb, line 60
def from_self!(*args, &block)
  @opts = clone.from_self(*args, &block).opts
  self
end
naked!() click to toggle source

Remove the #row_proc from the current dataset.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/mutation.rb, line 66
def naked!
  self.row_proc = nil
  self
end

Private Instance Methods

mutation_method(meth, *args, &block) click to toggle source

Modify the receiver with the results of sending the meth, args, and block to the receiver and merging the options of the resulting dataset into the receiver's options.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/mutation.rb, line 76
def mutation_method(meth, *args, &block)

Constants

PREPARED_ARG_PLACEHOLDER

Public Instance Methods

bind(bind_vars={}) click to toggle source

Set the bind variables to use for the call. If bind variables have already been set for this dataset, they are updated with the contents of bind_vars.

DB[:table].filter(:id=>:$id).bind(:id=>1).call(:first)
# SELECT * FROM table WHERE id = ? LIMIT 1 -- (1)
# => {:id=>1}
# File lib/sequel/dataset/prepared_statements.rb, line 217
def bind(bind_vars={})
  clone(:bind_vars=>@opts[:bind_vars] ? @opts[:bind_vars].merge(bind_vars) : bind_vars)
end
call(type, bind_variables={}, *values, &block) click to toggle source

For the given type (:select, :first, :insert, :insert_select, :update, or :delete), run the sql with the bind variables specified in the hash. values is a hash passed to insert or update (if one of those types is used), which may contain placeholders.

DB[:table].filter(:id=>:$id).call(:first, :id=>1)
# SELECT * FROM table WHERE id = ? LIMIT 1 -- (1)
# => {:id=>1}
# File lib/sequel/dataset/prepared_statements.rb, line 228
def call(type, bind_variables={}, *values, &block)
  prepare(type, nil, *values).call(bind_variables, &block)
end
prepare(type, name=nil, *values) click to toggle source

Prepare an SQL statement for later execution. Takes a type similar to call, and the name symbol of the prepared statement. While name defaults to nil, it should always be provided as a symbol for the name of the prepared statement, as some databases require that prepared statements have names.

This returns a clone of the dataset extended with PreparedStatementMethods, which you can call with the hash of bind variables to use. The prepared statement is also stored in the associated database, where it can be called by name. The following usage is identical:

ps = DB[:table].filter(:name=>:$name).prepare(:first, :select_by_name)

ps.call(:name=>'Blah')
# SELECT * FROM table WHERE name = ? -- ('Blah')
# => {:id=>1, :name=>'Blah'}

DB.call(:select_by_name, :name=>'Blah') # Same thing
# File lib/sequel/dataset/prepared_statements.rb, line 250
def prepare(type, name=nil, *values)
  ps = to_prepared_statement(type, values)
  db.set_prepared_statement(name, ps) if name
  ps
end

Protected Instance Methods

to_prepared_statement(type, values=nil) click to toggle source

Return a cloned copy of the current dataset extended with PreparedStatementMethods, setting the type and modify values.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/prepared_statements.rb, line 260
def to_prepared_statement(type, values=nil)
  ps = bind
  ps.extend(PreparedStatementMethods)
  ps.orig_dataset = self
  ps.prepared_type = type
  ps.prepared_modify_values = values
  ps
end

Private Instance Methods

prepared_arg_placeholder() click to toggle source

The argument placeholder. Most databases used unnumbered arguments with question marks, so that is the default.

# File lib/sequel/dataset/prepared_statements.rb, line 273
def prepared_arg_placeholder
  PREPARED_ARG_PLACEHOLDER

query(&block) click to toggle source

Translates a query block into a dataset. Query blocks are an alternative to Sequel's usual method chaining, by using instance_eval with a proxy object:

dataset = DB[:items].query do
  select :x, :y, :z
  filter{(x > 1) & (y > 2)}
  reverse :z

schema_and_table(table_name, sch=(db._default_schema if db)) click to toggle source

Split the schema information from the table, returning two strings, one for the schema and one for the table. The returned schema may be nil, but the table will always have a string value.

Note that this function does not handle tables with more than one level of qualification (e.g. database.schema.table on Microsoft SQL Server).

# File lib/sequel/dataset/sql.rb, line 696
def schema_and_table(table_name, sch=(db._default_schema if db))

  when SQL::Identifier
    [sch, table_name.value.to_s]

    [sch, table_name]
  else
    raise Error, 'table_name should be a Symbol, SQL::QualifiedIdentifier, SQL::Identifier, or String'
  end
end
select_remove(*cols) click to toggle source

Remove columns from the list of selected columns. If any of the currently selected columns use expressions/aliases, this will remove selected columns with the given aliases. It will also remove entries from the selection that match exactly:

# Assume columns a, b, and c in items table
DB[:items] # SELECT * FROM items
DB[:items].select_remove(:c) # SELECT a, b FROM items
DB[:items].select(:a, :b___c, :c___b).select_remove(:c) # SELECT a, c AS b FROM items
DB[:items].select(:a, :b___c, :c___b).select_remove(:c___b) # SELECT a, b AS c FROM items

Note that there are a few cases where this method may not work correctly:

  • This dataset joins multiple tables and does not have an existing explicit selection. In this case, the code will currently use unqualified column names for all columns the dataset returns, except for the columns given.

  • This dataset has an existing explicit selection containing an item that returns multiple database columns (e.g. Sequel.expr(:table).*, Sequel.lit('column1, column2')). In this case, the behavior is undefined and this method should not be used.

There may be other cases where this method does not work correctly, use it with caution.
