===================
Examples of usage
===================
Here are some example of how the module can be used.
---------
AST level
---------
The lowest level is a Python wrapper around each *parse node* returned by the ``PostgreSQL``
parser. Each node is represented by a corresponding Python class in the module
:ref:`pglast.ast`.
Parse an ``SQL`` statement and get its *AST* root node
======================================================
The function :func:`~pglast.parser.parse_sql` returns a tuple containing one or more
:class:`~pglast.ast.RawStmt` instances:
.. doctest::
>>> from pglast import parse_sql
>>> root = parse_sql('select 1')
>>> print(root)
(<RawStmt stmt=<SelectStmt targetList=(<ResTarget val=<A_Const isnull=False val=<Integer ival=1>>>,) ...,)
The textual ``repr``\ esentation of a parse node carries all its *not* ``None`` attributes,
recursively.
You can obtain the accepted attributes of any node by iterating it:
.. doctest::
>>> rawstmt = root[0]
>>> print(tuple(rawstmt))
('stmt', 'stmt_location', 'stmt_len')
.. doctest::
>>> from pglast import ast
>>> stmt = rawstmt.stmt
>>> assert isinstance(stmt, ast.SelectStmt)
Each node is also a *callable*, to serialize it into a hierarchy of elementary Python values
such as dictionaries and tuples:
.. doctest::
>>> from pprint import pprint
>>> pprint(stmt(depth=2, skip_none=True))
{'@': 'SelectStmt',
'all': False,
'groupDistinct': False,
'limitOption': {'#': 'LimitOption',
'name': 'LIMIT_OPTION_DEFAULT',
'value': 0},
'op': {'#': 'SetOperation', 'name': 'SETOP_NONE', 'value': 0},
'targetList': ({'@': 'ResTarget', 'location': 7, 'val': …},)}
As you can see, each node is serialized to a dictionary containing at least on *special* key,
``@``, with the *tag name* of the node; lists of nodes are converted to tuples, and ``Enum``
instances to a dictionary with a special ``#`` key carrying the name of data type, and two
other keys ``name`` and ``value`` respectively with the name and value of the enum value.
Nodes can be compared to each other, and are considered equal when all their attributes match,
ignoring those semantically irrelevant:
.. doctest::
>>> other_stmt = parse_sql('select /* something here */ 1')[0].stmt
>>> print(other_stmt(depth=2, skip_none=True))
{'@': 'SelectStmt', 'targetList': ({'@': 'ResTarget', 'val': …, 'location': 28},), ...}
>>> stmt == other_stmt
True
Altering a node
===============
Any attribute of a node is alterable, and some check is done on the assigned value:
.. doctest::
>>> print(stmt.all)
False
>>> stmt.all = True
>>> print(stmt.all)
True
.. doctest::
>>> stmt.all = "foo"
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: Bad value for attribute SelectStmt.all, expected (<class 'bool'>, <class 'int'>), got <class 'str'>: 'foo'
Enum attributes can be set to either a plain string, which is looked up in the related class,
or to a dictionary:
.. doctest::
>>> stmt.limitOption = 'LIMIT_OPTION_COUNT'
>>> pprint(stmt(depth=1, skip_none=True))
{'@': 'SelectStmt',
'all': True,
'groupDistinct': False,
'limitOption': {'#': 'LimitOption', 'name': 'LIMIT_OPTION_COUNT', 'value': 1},
'op': {'#': 'SetOperation', 'name': 'SETOP_NONE', 'value': 0},
'targetList': (…,)}
.. doctest::
>>> stmt.limitOption = {'#': 'LimitOption', 'name': 'LIMIT_OPTION_WITH_TIES'}
>>> pprint(stmt(depth=1, skip_none=True))
{'@': 'SelectStmt',
'all': True,
'groupDistinct': False,
'limitOption': {'#': 'LimitOption',
'name': 'LIMIT_OPTION_WITH_TIES',
'value': 2},
'op': {'#': 'SetOperation', 'name': 'SETOP_NONE', 'value': 0},
'targetList': (…,)}
Either way, assigning the wrong value raises an exception:
.. doctest::
>>> stmt.limitOption = 'foo'
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: Bad value for attribute SelectStmt.limitOption, (<class 'int'>, <class 'str'>, <class 'dict'>, <enum 'LimitOption'>), got 'foo'
>>> stmt.limitOption = {'#': 'JoinType', 'name': 'JOIN_INNER'}
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: Bad value for attribute SelectStmt.limitOption, expected a (<class 'int'>, <class 'str'>, <class 'dict'>, <enum 'LimitOption'>), got {'#': 'JoinType', 'name': 'JOIN_INNER'}
Creating a node
===============
You can easily create a new node in the usual way, possibly passing any recognized attribute as
a parameter to the constructor:
.. doctest::
>>> print(ast.SelectStmt())
<SelectStmt>
>>> print(ast.SelectStmt(all=1))
<SelectStmt all=True>
>>> ast.SelectStmt(non_existing_attribute=None)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'non_existing_attribute'
>>> ast.SelectStmt(all="foo")
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: Bad value for attribute SelectStmt.all, expected (<class 'bool'>, <class 'int'>), got <class 'str'>: 'foo'
Alternatively, you can pass a single dictionary as argument, with the special ``@`` key valued
with the correct node name:
>>> print(ast.SelectStmt({'@': 'SelectStmt', 'all': True}))
<SelectStmt all=True>
>>> print(ast.SelectStmt({'@': 'RawStmt', 'all': True}))
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: Bad argument, wrong "@" value, expected 'SelectStmt', got 'RawStmt'
This basically means that you can reconstruct a syntax tree from the result of calling a node:
>>> clone = ast.SelectStmt(stmt())
>>> clone is stmt
False
>>> clone == stmt
True
Programmatically :func:`reformat <pglast.prettify>` a ``SQL`` statement
=======================================================================
The easy way
------------
The :func:`~pglast.prettify()` takes a textual ``SQL`` statement and returns its equivalent
once *reprinted* with a focus on readability.
.. doctest::
>>> from pglast import prettify
>>> print(prettify('delete from sometable where value is null'))
DELETE FROM sometable
WHERE value IS NULL
.. doctest::
>>> print(prettify('select a,b,c from sometable where value is null'))
SELECT a
, b
, c
FROM sometable
WHERE value IS NULL
.. doctest::
>>> print(prettify('select a,b,c from sometable'
... ' where value is null or value = 1',
... comma_at_eoln=True))
SELECT a,
b,
c
FROM sometable
WHERE value IS NULL
OR value = 1
Under the cover
---------------
The function above is a simple wrapper to the :class:`~pglast.stream.IndentedStream` class,
that extends :class:`pglast.stream.RawStream` adding a bit a aesthetic sense.
.. doctest::
>>> from pglast.stream import IndentedStream, RawStream
>>> print(IndentedStream(comma_at_eoln=True)('select a,b,c from sometable'))
SELECT a,
b,
c
FROM sometable
.. doctest::
>>> print(IndentedStream()('select foo from bar'))
SELECT foo
FROM bar
.. doctest::
>>> sql = 'select a.x, b.y from a join b on a.bid = b.id'
>>> astnode = parse_sql(sql)[0].stmt
>>> astnode
<SelectStmt targetList=(<ResTarget val=<ColumnRef fields=(<String sval='a'>, <String sval='x'>)>>...
>>> print(RawStream()(astnode.fromClause))
a INNER JOIN b ON a.bid = b.id
:class:`Visit <pglast.visitors.Visitor>` or modify the AST tree
===============================================================
.. doctest::
>>> from collections import Counter
>>> from pglast.visitors import Visitor
>>>
>>> class Stats(Visitor):
... def __call__(self, node):
... self.counters = Counter()
... super().__call__(node)
... return self.counters
...
... def visit(self, ancestors, node):
... self.counters.update((node.__class__.__name__,))
...
>>> stats = Stats()
>>> print(stats(parse_sql('select 1')))
Counter({'RawStmt': 1, 'SelectStmt': 1, 'ResTarget': 1, 'A_Const': 1, 'Integer': 1})
.. doctest::
>>> class NoisyVisitor(Visitor):
... def visit(self, ancestors, node):
... print(ancestors, ':', node(depth=0, skip_none=True))
...
>>> visitor = NoisyVisitor()
>>> visitor(parse_sql('select a, b from c'))
ROOT → 0 : {'@': 'RawStmt', 'stmt': …, 'stmt_location': 0, 'stmt_len': 0}
ROOT → 0 → stmt : {'@': 'SelectStmt', 'targetList': …, 'fromClause': …, ...
ROOT → 0 → stmt → targetList → 0 : {'@': 'ResTarget', 'val': …, 'location': 7}
ROOT → 0 → stmt → targetList → 1 : {'@': 'ResTarget', 'val': …, 'location': 10}
ROOT → 0 → stmt → fromClause → 0 : {'@': 'RangeVar', 'relname': 'c', 'inh': True, ...
ROOT → 0 → stmt → targetList → 0 → val : {'@': 'ColumnRef', 'fields': …, 'location': 7}
ROOT → 0 → stmt → targetList → 1 → val : {'@': 'ColumnRef', 'fields': …, 'location': 10}
ROOT → 0 → stmt → targetList → 0 → val → fields → 0 : {'@': 'String', 'sval': 'a'}
ROOT → 0 → stmt → targetList → 1 → val → fields → 0 : {'@': 'String', 'sval': 'b'}
(<RawStmt stmt=<SelectStmt ...
.. doctest::
>>> from pglast import enums
>>> from pglast.visitors import Delete
>>>
>>> class DropNullConstraint(Visitor):
... def visit_Constraint(self, ancestors, node):
... if node.contype == enums.ConstrType.CONSTR_NULL:
... return Delete
...
>>> raw = parse_sql('create table foo (a integer null, b integer not null)')
>>> DropNullConstraint()(raw)
(<RawStmt stmt=<CreateStmt ...
>>> print(RawStream()(raw))
CREATE TABLE foo (a integer, b integer NOT NULL)
Customize a :func:`node printer <pglast.printers.node_printer>`
===============================================================
.. doctest::
>>> sql = 'update translations set italian=$2 where word=$1'
>>> print(prettify(sql))
UPDATE translations
SET italian = $2
WHERE word = $1
>>> from pglast.printers import node_printer
>>> @node_printer(ast.ParamRef, override=True)
... def replace_param_ref(node, output):
... output.write(repr(args[node.number - 1]))
...
>>> args = ['Hello', 'Ciao']
>>> print(prettify(sql, safety_belt=False))
UPDATE translations
SET italian = 'Ciao'
WHERE word = 'Hello'
:func:`Iterate <pglast.split>` over each statement
==================================================
By default, the :func:`split` function uses the parser to do its job:
.. doctest::
>>> from pglast import split
>>> for statement in split('select 1; select 2'):
... print(statement)
...
select 1
select 2
and thus it raises an error if the statement contains errors:
.. doctest::
>>> split('select 1 from; select 2')
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
pglast.parser.ParseError: syntax error at or near ";", at location 14
In this case, you can use a variant that uses the lexical *scanner* instead:
.. doctest::
>>> for statement in split('select 1 from; select 2', with_parser=False):
... print(statement)
...
select 1 from
select 2
.. _cli:

Reformat a ``SQL`` statement
============================
.. code-block:: shell
$ echo "select a,b,c from sometable" | pgpp
SELECT a
, b
, c
FROM sometable
$ pgpp -S "select a, case when a=1 then 'singular' else 'plural' end from test"
SELECT a
, CASE
WHEN (a = 1)
THEN 'singular'
ELSE 'plural'
END
FROM test
$ echo 'update "table" set value=123 where value is null' | pgpp
UPDATE "table"
SET value = 123
WHERE value IS NULL
$ echo "
insert into t (id, description)
values (1, 'this is short enough'),
(2, 'this is too long, and will be splitted')" | pgpp -s 20
INSERT INTO t (id, description)
VALUES (1, 'this is short enough')
, (2, 'this is too long, an'
'd will be splitted')
Get a more compact representation
=================================
.. code-block:: shell
$ pgpp --compact 30 -S "select a,b,c from st where a='longvalue1' and b='longvalue2'"
SELECT a, b, c
FROM st
WHERE (a = 'longvalue1')
AND (b = 'longvalue2')
$ pgpp --compact 60 -S "select a,b,c from st where a='longvalue1' and b='longvalue2'"
SELECT a, b, c
FROM st
WHERE (a = 'longvalue1') AND (b = 'longvalue2')
Obtain the *parse tree* of a ``SQL`` statement
==============================================
.. code-block:: shell
$ pgpp --parse-tree --statement "select 1"
[{'@': 'RawStmt',
'stmt': {'@': 'SelectStmt',
'all': False,
'limitOption': <LimitOption.LIMIT_OPTION_DEFAULT: 0>,
'op': <SetOperation.SETOP_NONE: 0>,
'targetList': ({'@': 'ResTarget',
'location': 7,
'val': {'@': 'A_Const',
'location': 7,
'val': {'@': 'Integer', 'val': 1}}},)},
'stmt_len': 0,
'stmt_location': 0}]
Preserve comments
=================
.. code-block:: shell
$ pgpp --preserve-comments -S "/* Header */ select 1"
/* Header */ SELECT 1
$ echo -e "--what?\nselect foo\n--where?\nfrom bar" | pgpp -C
--what?
SELECT foo
FROM
--where?
bar
$ echo -e "--what?\nselect foo\n/*where?*/from bar\n--end" | pgpp -C
--what?
SELECT foo
FROM
/*where?*/ bar
--end
.. note:: Preserving comments is always hard and far from a perfect science: not all AST nodes
carry their exact location, so it is not possible to differentiate between
``SELECT * /*comment*/ FROM foo`` and ``SELECT * FROM /*comment*/ foo``.
Functions vs SQL syntax
=======================
.. code-block:: shell
$ pgpp -S "select extract(hour from t1.modtime) from t1"
SELECT pg_catalog.date_part('hour', t1.modtime)
FROM t1
$ pgpp --special-functions -S "select extract(hour from t1.modtime) from t1"
SELECT EXTRACT(HOUR FROM t1.modtime)
FROM t1
$ echo "
select substring('123',2,3),
regexp_split_to_array('x,x,x', ','),
btrim('xxx'), trim('xxx'),
POSITION('hour' in trim(substring('xyz hour ',1,6)))
" | pgpp
SELECT pg_catalog.substring('123', 2, 3)
, regexp_split_to_array('x,x,x', ',')
, btrim('xxx')
, pg_catalog.btrim('xxx')
, pg_catalog.position(pg_catalog.btrim(pg_catalog.substring('xyz hour ', 1, 6))
, 'hour')
$ echo "
select substring('123',2,3),
regexp_split_to_array('x,x,x', ','),
btrim('xxx'), trim('xxx'),
POSITION('hour' in trim(substring('xyz hour ',1,6)))
" | pgpp -f --remove-pg_catalog-from-functions
SELECT substring('123', 2, 3)
, regexp_split_to_array('x,x,x', ',')
, btrim('xxx')
, btrim('xxx')
, pg_catalog.position(btrim(substring('xyz hour ', 1, 6))
, 'hour')
