NAME
SQL::QueryMaker - helper functions for SQL query generation
SYNOPSIS
my $query = sql_eq(foo => $v);
$query->as_sql; # `foo`=?
$query->bind; # ($v)
my $query = sql_lt(foo => $v);
$query->as_sql; # `foo`<?
$query->bind; # ($v)
my $query = sql_in(foo => [
$v1, $v2, $v3,
]);
$query->as_sql; # `foo` IN (?,?,?)
$query->bind; # ($v1,$v2,$v3)
my $query = sql_and(foo => [
sql_ge($min),
sql_lt($max)
]);
$query->as_sql; # `foo`>=? AND `foo`<?
$query->bind; # ($min,$max)
my $query = sql_and([
sql_eq(foo => $v1),
sql_eq(bar => $v2)
];
$query->as_sql; # `foo`=? AND `bar`=?
$query->bind; # ($v1,$v2)
my $query = sql_and([
foo => $v1,
bar => sql_lt($v2),
]);
$query->as_sql; # `foo`=? AND `bar`<?
$query->bind; # ($v1,$v2)
DESCRIPTION
This module concentrates on providing an expressive, concise way to declare SQL expressions by exporting carefully-designed functions. It is possible to use the module to generate SQL query conditions and pass them as arguments to other more versatile query builders such as SQL::Maker.
The functions exported by the module instantiate comparator objects that build SQL expressions when their as_sql
method are being invoked. There are two ways to specify the names of the columns to the comparator; to pass in the names as argument or to specify then as an argument to the as_sql
method.
FUNCTIONS
sql_eq([$column,] $value)
sql_ne([$column,] $value)
sql_lt([$column,] $value)
sql_gt([$column,] $value)
sql_le([$column,] $value)
sql_ge([$column,] $value)
sql_like([$column,] $value)
sql_is_null([$column])
sql_is_not_null([$column])
sql_not([$column])
sql_between([$column,] $min_value, $max_value)
sql_not_between([$column,] $min_value, $max_value)
sql_in([$column,] \@values)
sql_not_in([$column,] \@values)
Instantiates a comparator object that tests a column against given value(s).
sql_and([$column,] \@conditions)
sql_or([$ column,] \@conditions)
Aggregates given comparator objects into a logical expression.
If specified, the column name is pushed down to the arguments when the as_sql
method is being called, as show in the second example below.
sql_and([ # => `foo`=? AND `bar`<?
sql_eq("foo" => $v1),
sql_lt("bar" => $v2)
])
sql_and("foo" => [ # => `foo`>=$min OR `foo`<$max
sql_ge($min),
sql_lt($max),
])
sql_and(\%conditions)
sql_or(\%conditions)
Aggregates given pairs of column names and comparators into a logical expression.
The value part is composed of as the argument to the =
operator if it is not a blessed reference.
my $query = sql_and({
foo => 'abc',
bar => sql_lt(123),
});
$query->as_sql; # => `foo`=? AND bar<?
$query->bind; # => ('abc', 123)
sql_op([$column,] $op_sql, \@bind_values)
Generates a comparator object that tests a column using the given SQL and values. <@
> in the given SQL are replaced by the column name (specified either by the argument to the function or later by the call to the <as_sql
> method), and <?
> are substituted by the given bind values.
sql_raw($sql, @bind_values)
Generates a comparator object from raw SQL and bind values. <?
> in the given SQL are replaced by the bind values.
$obj->as_sql()
$obj->as_sql($column_name)
$obj->as_sql($column_name, $quote_identifier_cb)
Compiles given comparator object and returns an SQL expression. Corresponding bind values should be obtained by calling the bind
method.
The function optionally accepts a column name to which the comparator object should be bound; an error is thrown if the comparator object is already bound to another column.
The function also accepts a callback for quoting the identifiers. If omitted, the identifiers are quoted using `
after being splitted using .
; i.e. a column designated as foo.bar
is quoted as `foo`.`bar`
.
$obj->bind()
Returns a list of bind values corresponding to the SQL expression returned by the as_sql
method.
