6.1.2 Special variables

Special Variable: *allow-overwriting-prepared-statements*

When set to t, ensured-prepared will overwrite prepared statements having the same name if the query statement itself in the postmodern meta connection is different than the query statement provided to ensure-prepared.

Package

postmodern.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *current-logical-transaction*

This is bound to the current transaction-handle or savepoint-handle instance representing the innermost open logical transaction.

Package

postmodern.

Source

transaction.lisp.

Special Variable: *database*

Special holding the current database. Most functions and macros operating on a database assume this contains a connected database.

Package

postmodern.

Source

connect.lisp.

Special Variable: *default-use-ssl*

The default for connect’s use-ssl argument.
This starts at :no. If you set it to anything else, be sure to also load the CL+SSL library.

Package

postmodern.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *downcase-symbols*

When converting symbols to strings, whether to downcase the symbols is set here. The default is to downcase symbols.

Package

s-sql.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *enforce-parameter-types*

When set to t, the parameters of the first invocation of a prepared statement
will set the mandatory types that subsequent invocations of that prepared
statement must meet. If the parameters are used in paramparameters must meet. parameters must match type ensured-prepared will overwrite prepared statements having the same name if the query statement itself in the postmodern meta connection is
different than the query statement provided to ensure-prepared.

Package

postmodern.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *escape-sql-names-p*

Determines whether double quotes are added around column, table, and ** function names in queries. Valid values:

- T, in which case every name is escaped,
- NIL, in which case no name is escaped,
- :auto, which causes only reserved words to be escaped, or.
- :literal which is the same as :auto except it has added consequence in to-sql-name (see below).

The default value is :auto.

Be careful when binding this with let and such ― since a lot of SQL compilation tends to happen at compile-time, the result might not be what you expect. Mixed case sensitivity is not currently well supported. Postgresql itself will downcase unquoted identifiers. This will be revisited in the future if requested.

Package

s-sql.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *ignore-unknown-columns*

Normally, when get-dao, select-dao,
save-dao or query-dao finds a column in the database that’s not in the DAO class, it should raise an error. Setting this variable to a non-NIL will cause it to simply ignore the unknown column and allows you to define daos which are subsets of a table.

Package

postmodern.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *isolation-level*

The transaction isolation
level currently in use. You can specify the following isolation levels in postmodern transactions:

- :read-committed-rw (read committed with read and write)
- :read-committed-ro (read committed with read only)
- :repeatable-read-rw (repeatable read with read and write)
- :repeatable-read-ro (repeatable read with read only)
- :serializable (serializable with reand and write)

Package

postmodern.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *max-pool-size*

Set the maximum amount of connections kept in a single connection pool, where a pool consists of all the stored connections with the exact same connect arguments. Defaults to NIL, which means there is no maximum.

Package

postmodern.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *on-evidence-of-man-in-the-middle-attack*

If Postmodern sees evidence of an attempted man-in-the-middle attack, what should Postmodern do? Acceptable values are :error, :warn or :ignore

Package

cl-postgres.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *query-callback*

When profiling or debugging, the
*query-log* may not give enough information, or reparsing its output may not be feasible. This variable may be set to a designator of function taking two arguments. This function will be then called after every query, and receive query string and internal time units (as in (CL:GET-INTERNAL-REAL-TIME)) spent in query as its arguments.

Default value of this variable is ’LOG-QUERY, which takes care of *QUERY-LOG* processing. If you provide custom query callback and wish to keep *QUERY-LOG* functionality, you will have to call LOG-QUERY from your callback function

Package

cl-postgres.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *query-log*

When debugging, it can be helpful to inspect the
queries that are being sent to the database. Set this variable to an output stream value (*standard-output*, for example) to have CL-postgres log every query it makes.

Package

cl-postgres.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *read-row-values-as-binary*

Controls whether row values (as in select row(1, ’foo’) ) should be received from the database in text or binary form. The default value is nil, specifying that the results be sent back as text. Set this to t to cause the results to be read as binary.

Package

cl-postgres.

Source

interpret.lisp.

Special Variable: *retry-connect-delay*

How many seconds to wait before trying to connect again. Borrowed from pgloader

Package

cl-postgres.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *retry-connect-times*

How many times do we try to connect again. Borrowed from pgloader

Package

cl-postgres.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *silently-truncate-ratios*

Given a ratio, a stream and a
digital-length-limit, if *silently-truncate-ratios* is true,
will return a potentially truncated ratio. If false and the digital-length-limit is reached, it will throw an error noting the loss of precision and offering to continue or reset *silently-truncate-ratios* to true. Code contributed by Attila Lendvai.

Package

cl-postgres.

Source

config.lisp.

Special Variable: *sql-readtable*

The exported special var holding the current read table, a hash
mapping OIDs to instances of the type-interpreter class that contain functions for retreiving values from the database in text, and
possible binary, form.

For simple use, you will not have to touch this, but it is possible that code within a Lisp image requires different readers in different situations, in which case you can create separate read tables.

Package

cl-postgres.

Source

interpret.lisp.

Special Variable: *ssl-certificate-file*

When set to a filename, this file will be used as client certificate for SSL connections.

Package

cl-postgres.

6.1.3 Macros

Macro: def-row-reader (name (fields) &body body)

The defun-like variant of row-reader: creates a row reader and gives it a top-level function name.

Package

cl-postgres.

Source

protocol.lisp.

Macro: define-dao-finalization (((dao-name class) &rest keyword-args) &body body)

Create an :around-method for make-dao. The body is executed in a lexical environment where dao-name is bound to a freshly created and inserted DAO. The representation of the DAO in the database is then updated to reflect changes that body might have introduced. Useful for processing values of slots with the type serial, which are unknown before insert-dao.

Macro: defprepared (name query &optional format)

This is another macro variant of prepare. It is like prepare, but gives the function a name which now becomes a top-level function for the prepared statement. The name should not be a string but may be quoted.

Package

Macro: defprepared-with-names (name (&rest args) (query &rest query-args) &optional format)

Like defprepared, but allows to specify names of the function arguments in a lambda list as well as arguments supplied to the query.

Package

prepare.lisp.

Macro: deftable (name &body definitions)

Define a table. name can be either a symbol or a (symbol string) list. In the first case, the table name is derived from the symbol by S-SQL’s rules, in the second case, the name is given explicitly. The body of definitions can contain anything that evaluates to a string, as well as S-SQL expressions. In this body, the variables *table-name* and *table-symbol* are bound to the relevant values. Note that the evaluation of the definition is ordered, so you will generally want to create your table first and then define indices on it.

Macro: do-query-dao (((type type-var) query) &body body)

Like query-dao, but iterates over the results rather than returning them. For each matching DAO, body is evaluated with type-var bound to the instance.

Example:

Macro: doquery (query (&rest names) &body body)

Execute the given query (a string or a list starting with a keyword), iterating over the rows in the result. The body will be executed with the values in the row bound to the symbols given in names. To iterate over a parameterised query, one can specify a list whose car is the query, and whose cdr contains the arguments. For example:

(doquery (:select ’name ’score :from ’scores) (n s)
(incf (gethash n *scores*) s))

(doquery ((:select ’name :from ’scores :where (:> ’score ’$1)) 100) (name) (print name))

Macro: make-float-converters (encoder-name decoder-name exponent-bits significand-bits support-nan-and-infinity-p)

Writes an encoder and decoder function for floating point numbers with the given amount of exponent and significand bits (plus an extra sign bit). If support-nan-and-infinity-p is true, the decoders will also understand these special cases. NaN is represented as :not-a-number, and the infinities as :positive-infinity and :negative-infinity. Note that this means that the in- or output of these functions is not just floating point numbers anymore, but also keywords.

Macro: prepare (query &optional format)

Wraps a query into a function that can be used as the interface to a prepared statement. The given query (either a string or an S-SQL form) may contain placeholders, which look like $1, $2, etc. The resulting function takes one argument for every placeholder in the query, executes the prepared query, and returns the result in the format specified. (Allowed formats are the same as for query.)

For queries that have to be run very often, especially when they are complex, it may help performance since the server only has to plan them once. See the http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-prepare.html
in the PostgreSQL manual for details.

In some cases, the server will complain about not being able to deduce the type of the arguments in a statement. In that case you should add type
declarations (either with the PostgreSQL’s CAST SQL-conforming syntax or historical :: syntax, or with S-SQL’s :type construct) to help it out.

Note that it will attempt to automatically reconnect if database-connection-error, or admin-shutdown. It will reset prepared statements triggering an invalid-sql-statement-name error. It will overwrite old prepared statements triggering a duplicate-prepared-statement error.

Macro: query (query &rest args/format)

Execute the given query, which can be either a string or an S-SQL form (list starting with a keyword). If the query contains placeholders ($1, $2, etc) their values can be given as extra arguments. If one of these arguments is a keyword occurring in the table below, it will not be used as a query
argument, but will determine the format in which the results are returned instead. Any of the following formats can be used, with the default being :rows:

| :none | Ignore the result values. | | :lists, :rows | Return a list of lists, each list containing the values | | | for a row. | | :list, :row | Return a single row as a list. | | :alists | Return a list of alists which map column names to values, | | | with the names represented as keywords. | | :alist | Return a single row as an alist. | | :array-hash | Return an array of hashtables which map column names to | | | hash table keys. NOTE: It will return an empty array | | | if there is no result. | | :vectors | Returns a vector of vectors where each internal vector is | | | a returned row from the query. The field names are not | | | included. NOTE: It will return an empty vector instead of | | | NIL if there is no result. | | :str-alists | Like :alists, but use the original column names. | | :str-alist | Return a single row as an alist, with strings for names. | | :plists | Return a list of plists which map column names to values, | | | with the names represented as keywords. | | :plist | Return a single row as a plist. | | :column | Return a single column as a list. | | :single | Return a single value. | | :single! | Like :single, but raise an error when the number of | | | selected rows is not equal to 1. | | (:dao type) | Return a list of DAOs of the given type. The names of the | | | fields returned by the query must match slots in the DAO | | | class the same way as with query-dao. | | (:dao type :single)| Return a single DAO of the given type. | | :json-strs | Return a list of strings where each row is a json object | | | expressed as a string | | :json-str | Return a single string where the row returned is a json | | | object expressed as a string. | | :json-array-str | Return a string containing a json array, each element in | | | the array is a selected row expressed as a json object. | | | NOTE: If there is no result, it will return a string with | | | an empty json array. |

If the database returns information about the amount rows that were affected, such as with updating or deleting queries, this is returned as a second value.

Macro: register-sql-operators (arity &rest names)

Define simple operators. Arity is one of :unary (like
’not’), :unary-postfix (the operator comes after the operand), :n-ary (like ’+’: the operator falls away when there is only one operand), :2+-ary (like ’=’, which is meaningless for one operand), or :n-or-unary (like ’-’, where the operator is kept in the unary case). After the arity follow any number of operators, either just a keyword, in which case the downcased symbol name is used as the operator, or a two-element list containing a keyword and a name string.

Macro: row-reader ((fields) &body body)

Creates a row-reader, using the given name for the variable. Inside the body this variable refers to a vector of field descriptions. On top of that, two local functions are bound, next-row and next-field. The first will start reading the next row in the result, and returns a boolean indicating whether there is another row. The second will read and return one field, and should be passed the corresponding field description from the fields argument as a parameter.

A row reader should take care to iterate over all the rows in a result, and within each row iterate over all the fields. This means it should contain an outer loop that calls next-row, and every time next-row returns T it should iterate over the fields vector and call next-field for every field.

The definition of list-row-reader should give you an idea what a row reader looks like:

(row-reader (fields)
(loop :while (next-row)
:collect (loop :for field :across fields
:collect (next-field field))))

Obviously, row readers should not do things with the database connection like, say, close it or start a new query, since it still reading out the results from the current query. A row reader
is a function that is used to do something with the results of a query. It has two local functions: next-row and next-field, the first should be called once per row and will return a boolean indicating whether there are
any more rows, the second should be called once for every element in
the fields vector, with that field as argument, to read a single value
in a row. See list-row-reader in public.lisp for an example.

Macro: with-column-writers ((&rest defs) &body body)

Provides control over the way get-dao, select-dao, and query-dao read values from the database. This is not commonly needed, but can be used to reduce the amount of queries a system makes. writers should be a list of alternating column names (strings or symbols) and writers, where writers are either symbols referring to a slot in the objects, or functions taking two arguments ― an instance and a value ― which can be used to somehow store the value in the new instance. When any DAO-fetching function is called in the body, and columns matching the given names are encountered in the result, the writers are used instead of the default behaviour (try and store the value in the slot that matches the column name).

An example of using this is to add some non-column slots to a DAO class, and use query-dao within a with-column-writers form to pull in extra information about the objects, and immediately store it in the new instances.

Macro: with-logical-transaction ((&optional name isolation-level) &body body)

Executes body within a with-transaction form if no transaction is currently in progress, otherwise simulates a nested transaction by executing it within a with-savepoint form. The transaction or savepoint is bound to name if one is supplied. The isolation-level will set the isolation-level used by the transaction.

You can specify the following isolation levels in postmodern transactions:

- :read-committed-rw (read committed with read and write)
- :read-committed-ro (read committed with read only)
- :repeatable-read-rw (repeatable read with read and write)
- :repeatable-read-ro (repeatable read with read only)
- :serializable (serializable with reand and write)

Sample usage where george is just the name given to the transaction (not quoted or a string) and ... simply indicates other statements would be expected here:

(with-logical-transaction ()
(execute (:insert-into ’test-data :set ’value 77))
...)

(with-logical-transaction (george)

Macro: with-savepoint (name &body body)

Can only be used within a transaction. Establishes a savepoint with the given name at the start of body, and binds the same name to a handle for that savepoint. The body is executed and, at the end of body, the savepoint is released, unless a condition is thrown, in which case it is rolled back. Execute the body within a savepoint, releasing savepoint when the body exits normally, and rolling back otherwise. NAME is both the variable that can be used to release or rolled back before the body unwinds, and the SQL name of the savepoint.

An example might look like this:

(defun test12 (x &optional (y nil))
(with-logical-transaction (lt1 :read-committed-rw)
(execute (:insert-into ’test-data :set ’value 0))
(with-savepoint sp1
(execute (:insert-into ’test-data :set ’value 1))

(with-savepoint sp3
(execute (:insert-into ’test-data :set ’value 3))

Macro: with-schema ((schema &key strict if-not-exist drop-after) &body form)

A macro to set the schema search path (namespace) of the postgresql database to include as first entry a specified schema and then executes the body. Before executing body the PostgreSQL’s session variable search_path is set to the given namespace. After executing body the search_path variable is restored to the original value.

Calling with :strict ’t only the specified schema is set as current search path. All other schema are then not searched any more. If strict is nil, the namespace is just first schema on the search path upon the the body execution.

Calling with :if-not-exist set to :create the schema is created if this schema did not exist.
Calling with :if-not-exist set to nil, an error is signaled.

calling with drop-after set to ’t the schema is removed after the execution of the body form.

example :

(with-schema (:schema-name :strict nil :drop-after nil :if-not-exist :error) (foo 1)
(foo 2))

example :

(with-schema (’uniq :if-not-exist :create) ;; changing the search path (schema-exists-p ’uniq))

nil, the name and password are limited to printable ascii characters. For fun
reading on utf8 user names see
https://labs.spotify.com/2013/06/18/creative-usernames. Also interesting reading
is https://github.com/flurdy/bad_usernames and https://github.com/dsignr/disallowed-usernames/blob/master/disallowed%20usernames.csv, and https://www.b-list.org/weblog/2018/feb/11/usernames/

:allow-disallowed-names defaults to nil. If nil, the user name will be checked
against *disallowed-role-names*.

As an aside, if allowing utf8 in names, you might want to think about whether
you should second copy of the username in the original casing and normalized as
NFC for display purposes as opposed to normalizing to NFKC. It might be viewed
as culturally insensitive to change the display of the name.

Prepared statements are stored both in the meta slot in the postmodern connection and in postgresql session information. In the case of prepared statements generated with defprepared, there is also a lisp function with the same name.

If you know the prepared statement name, you can delete the prepared statement from both locations (the default behavior), just from postmodern by passing :postmodern to the location key parameter or just from postgresql by passing :postgresql to the location key parameter.

If you pass the name ’All’ as the statement name, it will
delete all prepared statements.

The default behavior is to also remove any lisp function of the same name. This behavior is controlled by the remove-function key parameter.

Function: drop-role (role-name &optional new-owner database)

The role-name and optional new-owner name should be strings. If they are symbols, they will be converted to string and hyphens will be converted to underscores.

Before dropping the role, you must drop all the objects it owns (or reassign their ownership) and revoke any privileges the role has been granted on other objects. If database is :all, drop-role will loop through all databases in the cluster ensuring that the role has no privileges or owned objects in every database. Otherwise drop-role will drop objects owned by a role in the current database.

We will reassign ownership of the objects to the postgres role
unless otherwise specified in the optional second parameter. If neither the postgresql role nor a provided second parameter actually exist as a role on the server, object ownership will be assigned to the role calling (drop-role).

Returns t if successful. Will not drop the postgres role.

As a minor matter of note, Postgresql allows a role to own objects in databases even if it does not have connection rights. This can be useful in setting group roles.

Function: execute-file (pathname &optional print remove-comments)

This function will execute sql queries stored in a file. Each sql statement in the file will be run independently, but if one statement fails, subsequent query statements will not be run, but any statement prior to the failing statement will have been commited.

Execute-file allows the sql file to include other sql files, with the meta-commands i or include which look for a file location relative to your default pathname (current working directory) or ir or include_relative which look for a file location relative to the initial sql file. If the file is not found in the expected location, execute-file will look to see if the requested file is in the other possible location. If that does not work, it will trigger an error with a restart which allows you to provide a new name for the file.

If you want the standard transction treatment such that all statements succeed or no statement succeeds, then ensure that the file starts with a begin transaction statement and finishes with an end transaction statement. See the test file test-execute-file-broken-transaction.sql as an example.

For debugging purposes, if the optional print parameter is set to t, format will print the count of the query and the query to the REPL.

The default setting is to remove sql comments from the file before executing the sql code. If that causes problems, the remove-comments parameter can be set to nil.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This utility function assumes that the file containing the sql queries can be trusted and bypasses the normal postmodern parameterization of queries.

Function: list-tablespaces ()

Lists the tablespaces in the currently connected database. What are tablespace you ask? Per the Postgresql documentation https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/manage-ag-tablespaces.html: Tablespaces in PostgreSQL allow database administrators to define locations in the file system where the files representing database objects can be stored. Once created, a tablespace can be referred to by name when creating database objects.

By using tablespaces, an administrator can control the disk layout of a PostgreSQL installation. This is useful in at least two ways. First, if the partition or volume on which the cluster was initialized runs out of space and cannot be extended, a tablespace can be created on a different partition and used until the system can be reconfigured.

Second, tablespaces allow an administrator to use knowledge of the usage pattern of database objects to optimize performance. For example, an index which is very heavily used can be placed on a very fast, highly available disk, such as an expensive solid state device. At the same time a table storing archived data which is rarely used or not performance critical could be stored on a less expensive, slower disk system.

Function: open-database (database user password host &optional port use-ssl service application-name use-binary)

Create and open a connection for the specified server, database, and user. use-ssl may be :no, :try, :yes, or :full; where :try means ’if the server supports it’. :require uses provided ssl certificate with no verification. :yes only verifies that the server cert is issued by a trusted CA,
but does not verify the server hostname. :full ’means expect a CA-signed cert for the supplied host name’ and verify the server hostname. When it is anything but :no, you must have the CL+SSL package loaded to initiate the connection.

On SBCL and Clozure CL, the value :unix may be passed for host, in order to connect using a Unix domain socket instead of a TCP socket.

Function: param-to-oid (param)

Returns the postgresql oid for parameters which are going to be passed
from postmodern to postgresql in binary. Currently that only includes integers, single-floats, double-floats and boolean. Everything else will be passed as
text for postgresql to interpret. We do not do arrays because passing them in Postgresql’s binary format is actually more overhead than sending the string literal version. See https://www.codesynthesis.com/pipermail/odb-users/2012-August/000688.html.

If you are wondering why text is not included in this function, many Postgresql
data types have no common lisp equivalent and therefore must be
passed as string literals. Specifying that something was text
when it is not will result in Postgresql throwing type mismatch errors.

Function: prepare-query (connection name query &optional parameters)

Parse and plan the given query, and store it with Postgresql under the given name.
Note that prepared statements are per-connection, so they can only be executed

Also note that while the Postmodern package will also stored the prepared query in the connection-meta slot of the connection, but cl-postgres prepare-query does not. If the name is an empty string, Postgresql will not store it as a reusable query. To make this useful in cl-postgres while (connection-use-binary connection) is true, you need to pass a list of parameters with the same type as you will be using when you call (exec-prepared).

Function: save-dao (dao)

Tries to insert the given dao using insert-dao. If the dao has unbound slots, those slots will be updated and bound by default data triggered by the database. If this raises a unique key violation error, it tries to update it by using update-dao instead. In this case, if the dao has unbound slots, updating will fail with an unbound slots error.

Be aware that there is a possible race condition here ― if some other process deletes the row at just the right moment, the update fails as well. Returns a boolean telling you whether a new row was inserted.

This function is unsafe to use inside of a transaction ― when a row with the given keys already exists, the transaction will be aborted. Use save-dao/transaction instead in such a situation.

Function: set-sql-datetime-readers (&key date timestamp timestamp-with-timezone interval time table)

Since there is no widely recognised standard way of representing dates and times in Common Lisp, and reading these from string representation is clunky and slow, this function provides a way to easily plug in binary readers for the date, time, timestamp, and interval types. It should be given functions with the following signatures:

- :date (days)

Where days is the amount of days since January 1st, 2000.

- :timestamp (useconds)

Timestamps have a microsecond resolution. Again, the zero point is the start of the year 2000, UTC.

- :timestamp-with-timezone

Like :timestamp, but for values of the ’timestamp with time zone’ type (which PostgreSQL internally stores exactly the same as regular timestamps).

- :time (useconds)

Refers to a time of day, counting from midnight.

- :interval (months days useconds)

An interval is represented as several separate components. The reason that days and microseconds are separated is that you might want to take leap seconds into account.

Defaults are provided as follows:
#’default-date-reader
#’default-timestamp-reader
#’default-interval-reader
#’default-time-reader

e.g.
(defun make-temp-postgres-query-requiring-unix-timestamps ()
(flet ((temp-timestamp-reader (useconds-since-2000)
(- (+ +start-of-2000+ (floor useconds-since-2000 1000000)) (encode-universal-time 0 0 0 1 1 1970 0)))) (set-sql-datetime-readers

Function: set-sql-reader (oid function &key table binary-p)

Define a new reader for a given type. table defaults to *sql-readtable*. The reader function should take a single argument, a string, and transform that into some kind of equivalent Lisp value. When binary-p is true, the reader function is supposed to directly read the binary representation of the value. In most cases this is not recommended, but if you want to use it: provide a function that takes a binary input stream and an integer (the size of the value, in bytes), and reads the value from that stream. Note that reading less or more bytes than the given size will horribly break your connection.

Takes a fully qualified table name which can be either a string or a symbol.
Returns three values.

1. A list of plists of each row’s parameters. This will always
include :column-name and :data-type-name but all other parameters can be set or unset
and are set by default (set to t).

2. The comment string attached to the table itself (if any).

3. A list of the check constraints applied to the rows in the table. See documentation for
list-check-constraints for an example.

The available keyword parameters are:

- char-max-length (Typically used for something like a varchar and shows the maximum length)
- data-type-length (For a fixed-size type, typlen is the number of bytes in the internal representation of the type. But for a variable-length type, typlen is negative. -1 indicates a “varlena” type (one that has a length word), -2 indicates a null-terminated C string.)
- has-default (value T if this column has a default value and :NULL if not)
- default-value (value is the default value as string. A default of 9.99 will still be a string)
- not-null (value is T if the column must have a value or :NULL otherwise)
- numeric-precision (value is the total number of digits for a numeric type if that precision was specified)
- numeric-scale (value is the number of digits in the fraction part of a numeric type if that scale was specified)
- storage (value is the storage setting for a column. Result can be plain, extended, main or external)
- primary (value is T if the column is the primary key for the table, :NULL otherwise)
- primary-key-name (value is the name of the primary-key itself, not the column, if the column is the primary key for the table, :NULL otherwise)
- unique (value is T if the column is subject to a unique key, :NULL otherwise)
- unique-key-name (value is the name of the unique-key itself, not the column, applied to the column, :NULL otherwise)
- fkey (value is T if the column is a foreign key, :NULL otherwise)
- fkey-name (value is the name of the foreign key, :NULL otherwise)
- fkey-col-id (value is the column id of the foreign table used as the foreign key. Probably easier to use the Postmodern function list-foreign-keys if you are looking for the name of the columns)
- fkey-table (value is the name of the foreign table, :NULL otherwise)
- fkey-local-col-id (value is the column id of this column. Probably easier to use the Postmodern function list-foreign-keys if you are looking for the name of the columns involved in the foreign key)
- identity (if the column is an identity column, the values can be ’generated always’ or ’generated by default’. Otherwise :NULL)
- generated (columns can be generated, if this column is generated and stored on disk, the value will be ’stored’, otherwise :NULL)
- collation (columns with collations which are not the default collation for the database will show that collation here, otherwise :NULL)
- col-comments (value is any comment that has been applied to the column, :NULL otherwise)
- locally-defined (value is T if locally defined. It might be both locally defined and inherited)
- inheritance-count (the number of direct ancestors this column has inherited)
- stat-collection (stat-collection returns the value of attstattarget which controls the level of detail of statistics accumulated for this column by ANALYZE. A zero value indicates that no statistics should be collected. A negative value says to use the system default statistics target. The exact meaning of positive values is data type-dependent. For scalar data types, attstattarget is both the target number of most common values to collect, and the target number of histogram bins to create. Attstorage is normally a copy of pg_type.typstorage of this column’s type. For TOAST-able data types, this can be altered after column creation to control storage policy.)

Generic Function: dao-exists-p (dao)

Test whether a row with the same primary key as the given
dao exists in the database. Will also return NIL when any of the key slots in the object are unbound.

Generic Function: dao-keys (class)

Returns list of slot names that are the primary key of DAO
class. Explicit keys takes priority over col-identity which takes priority over col-primary-key.

This is likely interesting if you have primary keys which are composed of more than one slot. Pay careful attention to situations where the primary key not only has more than one column, but they are actually in a different order than they are in the database table itself. Obviously the table needs to have been defined. You can provide a quoted class-name or an instance of a dao.

(let ((dao (make-instance ’test-data :a 23)))
(pomo:fetch-defaults dao))

Returns dao if there were unbound slots with default values, nil otherwise.

Generic Function: to-sql-string (arg)

Convert a Lisp value to its textual unescaped SQL
representation. Returns a second value indicating whether this value should be escaped if it is to be put directly into a query. Generally any string is going to be designated to be escaped.

You can define to-sql-string methods for your own datatypes if you want to be able to pass them to exec-prepared. When a non-NIL second value is returned, this may be T to indicate that the first value should simply be escaped as a string, or a second string providing a type prefix for the value. (This is different from s-sql::to-s-sql-string only in the handling of cons lists.

Generic Function: update-dao (dao)

Update the representation of the given dao in the database
to the values in the object. This is not defined for tables that do not have any non-primary-key columns. Raises an error when no row matching the dao exists.

Package

postmodern.

Source

table.lisp.

Generic Function: upsert-dao (dao)

Like save-dao or save-dao/transaction but using a different
method that doesn’t involve a database exception. This is safe to use both in and outside a transaction, though it’s advisable to always do it in a transaction to prevent a race condition. The way it works is:

If the object contains unbound slots, we call insert-dao directly, thus the behavior is like save-dao.

Otherwise we try to update a record with the same primary key. If the
PostgreSQL returns a non-zero number of rows updated it treated as the
record is already exists in the database, and we stop here.

If the PostgreSQL returns a zero number of rows updated, it treated as the record does not exist and we call insert-dao.

The race condition might occur at step 3 if there’s no transaction: if UPDATE returns zero number of rows updated and another thread inserts the record at that moment, the insertion implied by step 3 will fail.

Note, that triggers and rules may affect the number of inserted or updated
rows returned by PostgreSQL, so zero or non-zero number of affected rows may
not actually indicate the existence of record in the database.

This method returns two values: the DAO object and a boolean (T if the object was inserted, NIL if it was updated).

IMPORTANT: This is not the same as insert on conflict (sometimes called an upsert) in Postgresq. An upsert in Postgresql terms is an insert with a fallback of updating the row if the insert key conflicts with an already existing row. An upsert-dao in Postmodern terms is the reverse. First you try updating an existing object. If there is no existing object to oupdate, then you insert a new object.

Condition: database-connection-error

Subtype of database-error. An error of this type (or one of
its subclasses) is signaled when a query is attempted with a connection object that is no longer connected, or a database connection becomes invalid during a query. Always provides a :reconnect restart, which will cause the library to make an attempt to restore the connection and re-try the query.

The following shows an example use of this feature, a way to ensure that the first connection error causes a reconnect attempt, while others pass through as normal. A variation on this theme could continue trying to reconnect, with successively longer pauses.

(defun call-with-single-reconnect (fun)
(let ((reconnected nil))

6.1.8 Classes

Class: dao-class

At the heart of Postmodern’s DAO system is the dao-class
metaclass. It allows you to define classes for your database-access objects as regular CLOS classes. Some of the slots in these classes will refer to columns
in the database. To specify that a slot refers to a column, give it a :col-type option containing an S-SQL type expression (useful if you want to be able to
derive a table definition from the class definition), or simply a :column
option with value T. Such slots can also take a :col-default option, used to
provide a database-side default value as an S-SQL expression. You can use the :col-name initarg (whose unevaluated value will be passed to to-sql-name) to
specify the slot’s column’s name.

DAO class definitions support two extra class options: :table-name to give the
name of the table that the class refers to (defaults to the class name), and
:keys to provide a set of primary keys for the table. If more than one key is provided, this creates a multi-column primary key and all keys must be
specified when using operations such as update-dao and get-dao. When no primary
keys are defined, operations such as update-dao and get-dao will not work.

IMPORTANT: Class finalization for a dao class instance are wrapped with a
thread lock. However, any time you are using threads and a class that
inherits from other classes, you should ensure that classes are finalized
before you start generating threads that create new instances of that class.

The (or db-null integer) form is used to indicate a column can have NULL values otherwise the column will be treated as NOT NULL.

Simple example:

(defclass users ()
((name :col-type string :initarg :name :accessor user-name)
(creditcard :col-type (or db-null integer) :initarg :card :col-default :null) (score :col-type bigint :col-default 0 :accessor user-score))
(:metaclass dao-class)
(:keys name))

In this case the name of the users will be treated as the primary key and the database table is assume to be users.

Now look at a slightly more complex example.

(defclass country ()
((id :col-type integer :col-identity t :accessor id)
(name :col-type text :col-unique t :initarg :country :accessor country) (region-id :col-type integer :col-references ((regions id)) :initarg :region-id :accessor region-id))
(:metaclass dao-class)
(:table-name countries))

In this example we have an id column which is specified to be an identity column. Postgresql will automatically generate a sequence of of integers and this will
be the primary key.

We have a name column which is specified as unique and is not null.

We have a region-id column which references the id column in the regions table.
This is a foreign key constraint and Postgresql will not accept inserting a country into the database unless there is an existing region with an id that matches this number. Postgresql will also not allow deleting a region if there are countries
that reference that region’s id. If we wanted Postgresql to delete countries when regions are deleted, that column would be specified as:

(region-id :col-type integer :col-references ((regions id) :cascade)
:initarg :region-id :accessor region-id)

Now you can see why the double parens.

We also specify that the table name is not ’country’ but ’countries’. (Some style guides recommend that table names be plural and references to rows be singular.)

When inheriting from DAO classes, a subclass’ set of columns also contains
all the columns of its superclasses. The primary key for such a class is the
union of its own keys and all the keys from its superclasses. Classes
inheriting from DAO classes should probably always use the dao-class metaclass themselves.

When a DAO is created with make-instance, the :fetch-defaults keyword argument
can be passed, which, when T, will cause a query to fetch the default values
for all slots that refers to columns with defaults and were not bound through initargs. In some cases, such as serial columns, which have an implicit default, this will not work. You can work around this by creating your own sequence,
e.g. ’my_sequence’, and defining a (:nextval "my_sequence") default.

Finally, DAO class slots can have an option :ghost t to specify them as ghost
slots. These are selected when retrieving instances, but not written when
updating or inserting, or even included in the table definition. The only known
use for this to date is for creating the table with (oids=true), and specify a
slot like this:

(oid :col-type integer :ghost t :accessor get-oid)

Macro: as-object-member ((key &optional stream) &body body)

BODY should be a program which writes exactly one JSON datum to STREAM. AS-OBJECT-MEMBER ensures that the datum is properly formatted as a Member of an Object, i. e. preceded by the (encoded) KEY and colon, and separated by comma from any preceding or following Member.

Macro: as-utf-8-bytes (char writer)

Given a character, calls the writer function for every byte in the encoded form of that character.

Package

cl-postgres-trivial-utf-8.

Source

trivial-utf-8.lisp.

Macro: binary-reader (fields &body value)

A slightly convoluted macro for defining interpreter functions. It allows two forms. The first is to pass a single type identifier, in which case a value of this type will be read and returned directly. The second is to pass a list of lists containing names and types, and then a body. In this case the names will be bound to values read from the socket and interpreted as the given types, and then the body will be run in the resulting environment. If the last field is of type bytes, string, or uint2s, all remaining data will be read and interpreted as an array of the given type.

Macro: message-case (socket &body clauses)

Helper macro for reading messages from the server. A list of cases (characters that identify the message) can be given, each with a body that handles the message, or the keyword :skip to skip the message. Cases for error and warning messages are always added.

The body may contain an initial parameter of the form :LENGTH-SYM SYMBOL where SYMBOL is a symbol to which the remaining length of the packet is bound. This value indicates the number of bytes that have to be read from the socket.

Package

cl-postgres.

Source

protocol.lisp.

Macro: returning-effected-rows (value &body body)

Computes a value, then runs a body, then returns, as multiple values, that value and the amount of effected rows, if any (see *effected rows*).

query.lisp.

Macro: single-row! (form)
Package

Source

query.lisp.

Macro: split-on-keywords (words form &body body)

Handles arguments to some complex SQL operations. Arguments
are divided by keywords, which are interned with the name of the non-keyword symbols in words, and bound to these symbols. After the naming symbols, a ? can be used to indicate this argument group is optional, an * to indicate it can consist of more than one element, and a - to indicate it does not take any elements. When used, keywords must appear in the order defined.

Package

s-sql.

Source

s-sql.lisp.

Macro: using-connection (connection &body body)

This is used to prevent a row-reader from recursively calling some query function. Because the connection is still returning results from the previous query when a row-reading is being executed, starting another query will not work as expected (or at all, in general). This might also raise an error when you are using a single database connection from multiple threads, but you should not do that at all. Also binds *timestamp-format* and *connection-params*, which might be needed by the code interpreting the query results.

Function: copy-from-csv (tablename filename &key delimiter header-p database user password host port)

Runs the psql copy command against a file. Assuming you are already connected to the desired database and the *database* global variable is set to that, then the mMinimum parameters required are the postgresql table-name and the file name including its absolute path. The delimiter parameter should be either ’comma or ’tab. Set the header-p parameter t if the first line of the csv file is a header that should not get imported into the database table. The table name can be either a string or quoted symbol.

Function: create-role-helper (role-type name password &key schema tables databases)

Create-role-helper creates a user, then calls grant-role-permission

A :superuser can create databases, roles, replication, etc.
An :admin user can edit existing data, insert new data and create new tables in the specified databases/schemas/tables.
An :editor user can update fields or insert new records but cannot create new tables in the specified tables or databases.
A :readonly user can only read existing data in the specified schemas, tables or databases. Schema, tables or databases can be :all or a list of schemas, tables or databases to be granted permission.

Granting :all provides access to all future items of that type as well.

Note that the schema and table rights and revocations granted are limited to the connected database at the time of execution of this function.

Function: expand-table-constraint (option args)

Process table constraints that precede the closing parentheses in the table definition for the base level create table. The difference between this and the expand-table-constraint-sok function is the parameter list signature. This expects to receive no sublists. The expand-table-constraint-sok function expects to list of sublists. This is done to maintain backwards compatibility and most general users do not need the extended version.

Foreign keys have defaults on-delete restrict, on-update restrict, and match simple. If you want to change those defaults, you need to specify them in that order.

Per the postgresql documentation at https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/sql-createtable.html

A value inserted into the referencing column(s) is matched against the values of the referenced table and referenced columns using the given match type. There are three match types: MATCH FULL, MATCH PARTIAL, and MATCH SIMPLE (which is the default). MATCH FULL will not allow one column of a multicolumn foreign key to be null unless all foreign key columns are null; if they are all null, the row is not required to have a match in the referenced table. MATCH SIMPLE allows any of the foreign key columns to be null; if any of them are null, the row is not required to have a match in the referenced table. MATCH PARTIAL is not yet implemented. (Of course, NOT NULL constraints can be applied to the referencing column(s) to prevent these cases from arising.)

Function: expand-table-constraint-sok (args)
