NAME

SQL::Abstract::Pg - PostgreSQL features for SQL::Abstract

SYNOPSIS

  use SQL::Abstract::Pg;

  my $abstract = SQL::Abstract::Pg->new;
  say $abstract->select('some_table');

DESCRIPTION

SQL::Abstract::Pg extends SQL::Abstract with a few PostgreSQL features used by Mojo::Pg.

JSON

In many places (as supported by SQL::Abstract) you can use the "-json" unary op to encode JSON from Perl data structures.

  # "UPDATE some_table SET foo = '[1,2,3]' WHERE bar = 23"
  $abstract->update('some_table', {foo => {-json => [1, 2, 3]}}, {bar => 23});

  # "SELECT * FROM some_table WHERE foo = '[1,2,3]'"
  $abstract->select('some_table', '*', {foo => {'=' => {-json => [1, 2, 3]}}});

INSERT

  $abstract->insert($table, \@values || \%fieldvals, \%options);

The "on_conflict" option can be used to generate "INSERT" queries with "ON CONFLICT" clauses. So far, "undef" to pass "DO NOTHING", array references to pass "DO UPDATE" with conflict targets and a "SET" expression, scalar references to pass literal SQL and array reference references to pass literal SQL with bind values are supported.

  # "INSERT INTO t (a) VALUES ('b') ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING"
  $abstract->insert('t', {a => 'b'}, {on_conflict => undef});

  # "INSERT INTO t (a) VALUES ('b') ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING"
  $abstract->insert('t', {a => 'b'}, {on_conflict => \'do nothing'});

This includes operations commonly referred to as "upsert".

  # "INSERT INTO t (a) VALUES ('b') ON CONFLICT (a) DO UPDATE SET a = 'c'"
  $abstract->insert('t', {a => 'b'}, {on_conflict => [a => {a => 'c'}]});

  # "INSERT INTO t (a, b) VALUES ('c', 'd') ON CONFLICT (a, b) DO UPDATE SET a = 'e'"
  $abstract->insert('t', {a => 'c', b => 'd'}, {on_conflict => [['a', 'b'] => {a => 'e'}]});

  # "INSERT INTO t (a) VALUES ('b') ON CONFLICT (a) DO UPDATE SET a = 'c'"
  $abstract->insert('t', {a => 'b'}, {on_conflict => \['(a) do update set a = ?', 'c']});

SELECT

  $abstract->select($source, $fields, $where, $order);
  $abstract->select($source, $fields, $where, \%options);

AS

The $fields argument now also accepts array references containing array references with field names and aliases, as well as array references containing scalar references to pass literal SQL and array reference references to pass literal SQL with bind values.

  # "SELECT foo AS bar FROM some_table"
  $abstract->select('some_table', [[foo => 'bar']]);

  # "SELECT foo, bar AS baz, yada FROM some_table"
  $abstract->select('some_table', ['foo', [bar => 'baz'], 'yada']);

  # "SELECT EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM foo) AS foo, bar FROM some_table"
  $abstract->select('some_table', [\'extract(epoch from foo) AS foo', 'bar']);

  # "SELECT 'test' AS foo, bar FROM some_table"
  $abstract->select('some_table', [\['? AS foo', 'test'], 'bar']);

JOIN

The $source argument now also accepts array references containing not only table names, but also array references with tables to generate "JOIN" clauses for.

  # "SELECT * FROM foo JOIN bar ON (bar.foo_id = foo.id)"
  $abstract->select(['foo', ['bar', foo_id => 'id']]);

  # "SELECT * FROM foo JOIN bar ON (foo.id = bar.foo_id)"
  $abstract->select(['foo', ['bar', 'foo.id' => 'bar.foo_id']]);

  # "SELECT * FROM a JOIN b ON (b.a_id = a.id) JOIN c ON (c.a_id = a.id)"
  $abstract->select(['a', ['b', a_id => 'id'], ['c', a_id => 'id']]);

  # "SELECT * FROM foo LEFT JOIN bar ON (bar.foo_id = foo.id)"
  $abstract->select(['foo', [-left => 'bar', foo_id => 'id']]);

  # "SELECT * FROM a LEFT JOIN b ON (b.a_id = a.id AND b.a_id2 = a.id2)"
  $abstract->select(['a', [-left => 'b', a_id => 'id', a_id2 => 'id2']]);

ORDER BY

Alternatively to the $order argument accepted by SQL::Abstract you can now also pass a hash reference with various options. This includes "order_by", which takes the same values as the $order argument.

  # "SELECT * FROM some_table ORDER BY foo DESC"
  $abstract->select('some_table', '*', undef, {order_by => {-desc => 'foo'}});

LIMIT/OFFSET

The "limit" and "offset" options can be used to generate "SELECT" queries with "LIMIT" and "OFFSET" clauses.

  # "SELECT * FROM some_table LIMIT 10"
  $abstract->select('some_table', '*', undef, {limit => 10});

  # "SELECT * FROM some_table OFFSET 5"
  $abstract->select('some_table', '*', undef, {offset => 5});

  # "SELECT * FROM some_table LIMIT 10 OFFSET 5"
  $abstract->select('some_table', '*', undef, {limit => 10, offset => 5});

GROUP BY

The "group_by" option can be used to generate "SELECT" queries with "GROUP BY" clauses. So far, array references to pass a list of fields and scalar references to pass literal SQL are supported.

  # "SELECT * FROM some_table GROUP BY foo, bar"
  $abstract->select('some_table', '*', undef, {group_by => ['foo', 'bar']});

  # "SELECT * FROM some_table GROUP BY foo, bar"
  $abstract->select('some_table', '*', undef, {group_by => \'foo, bar'});

HAVING

The "having" option can be used to generate "SELECT" queries with "HAVING" clauses, which takes the same values as the $where argument.

  # "SELECT * FROM t GROUP BY a HAVING b = 'c'"
  $abstract->select('t', '*', undef, {group_by => ['a'], having => {b => 'c'}});

FOR

The "for" option can be used to generate "SELECT" queries with "FOR" clauses. So far, the scalar value "update" to pass "UPDATE" and scalar references to pass literal SQL are supported.

  # "SELECT * FROM some_table FOR UPDATE"
  $abstract->select('some_table', '*', undef, {for => 'update'});

  # "SELECT * FROM some_table FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED"
  $abstract->select('some_table', '*', undef, {for => \'update skip locked'});

METHODS

SQL::Abstract::Pg inherits all methods from SQL::Abstract.
