Crate sql-macros

sql-macros - it's simple lib for generate sql query for select, select_many, select_all, insert, update, delete

0.2 changes

The attribute parser was rewritten from a hand-rolled TokenTree walker onto darling, on syn 3.0. This fixes a couple of real bugs (field types with 0 or 2+ generic arguments used to be silently dropped during codegen; SqlInsertMany didn't actually batch-insert anything) and replaces panic!s with span-accurate compile errors.

Breaking change: #[table(name = users)] (bare identifier) is no longer accepted — write #[table(name = "users")] instead. This is the only syntax change; return_type = User, select = method(field1, field2), as_type = "...", spec_columns = "...", and return_fields = "..." are all unchanged. SqlInsertMany now does a real multi-row INSERT ... VALUES (...), (...), ... via sqlx::QueryBuilder instead of silently discarding the query result, and #[table(update = name(fields))] (multiple differently-filtered update methods per struct) is now supported — see Insert many and Generate methods with many fields.

Usage

Table name

use sql_macros::SqlSelect;

#[derive(SqlSelect)]
pub struct User {
    #[table(select)]
    pub id: i32,
    pub email: String,
}

Table name will be generated as users

If you need use special name use #[table(name = "users")]

Select one

use sql_macros::SqlSelect;

#[derive(SqlSelect)]
pub struct User {
    #[table(select)]
    pub id: i32,
    pub email: String,
}

pub async fn get_by_id(pool: &sqlx::PgPool, id: i32) -> Result<Option<User>, sqlx::Error> {
    let user = User::select_by_id(pool, id).await?;
    Ok(user)
}

View generated code

impl User {
    #[doc = "SELECT id, email FROM users WHERE id=$1"]
    pub async fn select_by_id(pool: &sqlx::PgPool, id: i32) -> Result<Option<User>, sqlx::Error> {
        let object = sqlx::query_as!(User, "SELECT id, email FROM users WHERE id=$1", id)
            .fetch_optional(pool)
            .await?;

            User,

            &self.email
        )
        .fetch_one(&mut *conn)
        .await?;
        Ok(object)
    }
}

Insert with returning fields

use sql_macros::SqlInsert;

#[derive(sqlx::FromRow)]
struct CreateUserResponse {
    pub id: i32,
}

#[derive(Debug, SqlInsert)]
#[table(name = "users", return_type = CreateUserResponse, return_fields = "id")]
pub struct CreateUser {
    pub email: String,
}

pub async fn create(conn: &mut sqlx::PgConnection, data: &CreateUser) -> Result<CreateUserResponse, sqlx::Error> {
    let user = data.insert(conn).await?;
    Ok(user)
}

impl CreateUser {
    #[doc = "INSERT INTO users (email) VALUES ($1) RETURNING id"]
    pub async fn insert(&self, conn: &mut sqlx::PgConnection) -> Result<CreateUserResponse, sqlx::Error> {
        let object = sqlx::query_as!(
            CreateUserResponse,
            "INSERT INTO users (email) VALUES ($1) RETURNING id",
            &self.email
        )
        .fetch_one(&mut *conn)
        .await?;
        Ok(object)
    }
}

Insert many

SqlInsert only inserts a single row. For inserting a batch of rows in one round-trip, derive SqlInsertMany as well. Because the number of rows isn't known at compile time, this can't use sqlx::query!/query_as! like the other methods do — it's built at runtime with sqlx::QueryBuilder instead.

use sql_macros::SqlInsertMany;

#[derive(Debug, SqlInsertMany)]
#[table(name = "users", return_type = User)]
pub struct CreateUser {
    pub email: String,
}

pub async fn create_many(conn: &mut sqlx::PgConnection, data: &[CreateUser]) -> Result<Vec<User>, sqlx::Error> {
    let users = CreateUser::insert_many(data, conn).await?;
    Ok(users)
}

View generated code

impl CreateUser {
    #[doc = "INSERT INTO users (email) VALUES (...), (...), ... RETURNING *"]
    pub async fn insert_many(
        items: &[Self],
        conn: &mut sqlx::PgConnection,
    ) -> Result<Vec<User>, sqlx::Error> {
        if items.is_empty() {
            return Ok(Vec::new());
        }

        let mut builder = sqlx::QueryBuilder::new("INSERT INTO users (email) ");
        builder.push_values(items, |mut b, item| {
            b.push_bind(&item.email);
        });
        builder.push(" RETURNING ").push("*");

        let objects = builder
            .build_query_as::<User>()
            .fetch_all(&mut *conn)
            .await?;
        Ok(objects)
    }
}

Without return_type, insert_many returns Result<sqlx::any::AnyQueryResult, sqlx::Error> instead, same as insert.

Upsert

Mark a field #[table(upsert)] to make it the ON CONFLICT (...) target for SqlInsert/SqlInsertMany. Every other field becomes a DO UPDATE SET col = EXCLUDED.col assignment (if every field were part of the target, it falls back to DO NOTHING, since an empty SET is invalid SQL).

use sql_macros::SqlInsert;

#[derive(Debug, SqlInsert)]
#[table(name = "users", return_type = User)]
pub struct UpsertUser {
    #[table(upsert)]
    pub email: String,
    pub is_active: bool,
}

pub async fn upsert(conn: &mut sqlx::PgConnection, data: &UpsertUser) -> Result<User, sqlx::Error> {
    let user = data.insert(conn).await?;
    Ok(user)
}

View generated code

impl UpsertUser {
    #[doc = "INSERT INTO users (email, is_active) VALUES ($1,$2) ON CONFLICT (email) DO UPDATE SET is_active=EXCLUDED.is_active RETURNING *"]
    pub async fn insert(&self, conn: &mut sqlx::PgConnection) -> Result<User, sqlx::Error> {
        let object = sqlx::query_as!(
            User,
            "INSERT INTO users (email, is_active) VALUES ($1,$2) ON CONFLICT (email) DO UPDATE SET is_active=EXCLUDED.is_active RETURNING *",
            &self.email as _,
            &self.is_active as _
        )
        .fetch_one(&mut *conn)
        .await?;
        Ok(object)
    }
}

SqlInsertMany supports the same #[table(upsert)] attribute; the ON CONFLICT clause is appended once, after the batch VALUES (...), (...), ... list, and applies to every row.

            .execute(&mut *conn)
            .await?;
        Ok(result.into())
    }
}

Generate methods with many fields

use sql_macros::{SqlDelete, SqlSelect, SqlSelectMany, SqlUpdate};

#[derive(SqlSelect, SqlSelectMany, SqlDelete, SqlUpdate)]
#[table(select = get_active_user(is_active, is_removed))]
#[table(select_many = get_user_by_removed(is_active, is_removed))]
#[table(delete = delete_user(is_active, is_removed))]
#[table(update = update_by_email(email))]
pub struct User {
    pub id: i32,
    pub email: String,
    pub is_active: bool,
    pub is_removed: bool,
}

Works with select, select_many, delete, update.

For update, the listed fields (email above) become the WHERE filter and every other field (id, is_active, is_removed) becomes a SET column - same rule update_by_<field> follows via #[table(update)] on a field, just parameterised so you can generate several differently-filtered update methods on one struct:

View generated code

impl User {
    #[doc = "UPDATE users SET id=$1, is_active=$2, is_removed=$3 WHERE email=$4"]
    pub async fn update_by_email(&self, conn: &mut sqlx::PgConnection) -> Result<sqlx::any::AnyQueryResult, sqlx::Error> {
        let result = sqlx::query!(
            "UPDATE users SET id=$1, is_active=$2, is_removed=$3 WHERE email=$4",
            &self.id,
            &self.is_active,
            &self.is_removed,
            &self.email
        )
        .execute(&mut *conn)
        .await?;
        Ok(result.into())
    }
}

Comparison operators

A field's own single-field methods (select_by_<field>, select_many_by_<field>, delete_by_<field>, update_by_<field>) default to =. Add op = "..." to use something else: gt/lt/gte/lte (>, <, >=, <=), like/ilike (LIKE/ILIKE — ilike is Postgres's case-insensitive LIKE), or in/not_in (= ANY($n)/!= ALL($n), which also widen the generated parameter from FieldType to &[FieldType]).

This only applies to a field's own single-field methods — a custom multi-field method (select = name(...)) never reads it; those are always =, AND-joined (see Custom multi-field methods below for how to express something more complex there).

use sql_macros::SqlSelectMany;

#[derive(SqlSelectMany)]
pub struct User {
    pub email: String,
    #[table(select_many, op = "gt")]
    pub id: i32,
}

pub async fn get_newer_than(pool: &sqlx::PgPool, id: i32) -> Result<Vec<User>, sqlx::Error> {
    let users = User::select_many_by_id_gt(pool, id).await?;
    Ok(users)
}

View generated code

impl User {
    #[doc = "SELECT email, id FROM users WHERE id>$1"]
    pub async fn select_many_by_id_gt(pool: &sqlx::PgPool, id: i32) -> Result<Vec<User>, sqlx::Error> {
        let object = sqlx::query_as!(User, "SELECT email, id FROM users WHERE id>$1", id)
            .fetch_all(pool)
            .await?;
        Ok(object)
    }
}

Note the method name: any non-eq operator is suffixed onto the base name (select_many_by_id -> select_many_by_id_gt), so the operator is visible at the call site instead of being hidden behind a plain-looking name.

op also accepts a list — op = ["gt", "lt"] — generating one method variant per operator, instead of one field forcing a single fixed comparison everywhere a field can only have one meaning at a time:

#[derive(SqlSelectMany)]
pub struct User {
    pub email: String,
    #[table(select_many, op = ["gt", "lt"])]
    pub id: i32,
}

View generated code

impl User {
    #[doc = "SELECT email, id FROM users WHERE id>$1"]
    pub async fn select_many_by_id_gt(pool: &sqlx::PgPool, id: i32) -> Result<Vec<User>, sqlx::Error> {
        let object = sqlx::query_as!(User, "SELECT email, id FROM users WHERE id>$1", id)
            .fetch_all(pool)
            .await?;
        Ok(object)
    }

    #[doc = "SELECT email, id FROM users WHERE id<$1"]
    pub async fn select_many_by_id_lt(pool: &sqlx::PgPool, id: i32) -> Result<Vec<User>, sqlx::Error> {
        let object = sqlx::query_as!(User, "SELECT email, id FROM users WHERE id<$1", id)
            .fetch_all(pool)
            .await?;
        Ok(object)
    }
}

This works the same way for #[table(update)] fields — op = ["gt", "lt"] generates update_by_age_gt and update_by_age_lt, same shape as select_many_by_age_gt/select_many_by_age_lt.

op = "in"/"not_in" change the parameter type, since they filter against a list rather than a single value:

#[derive(SqlSelectMany)]
pub struct User {
    pub email: String,
    #[table(select_many, op = "in")]
    pub id: i32,
}

View generated code

impl User {
    #[doc = "SELECT email, id FROM users WHERE id = ANY($1)"]
    pub async fn select_many_by_id_in(pool: &sqlx::PgPool, id: &[i32]) -> Result<Vec<User>, sqlx::Error> {
        let object = sqlx::query_as!(User, "SELECT email, id FROM users WHERE id = ANY($1)", id)
            .fetch_all(pool)
            .await?;
        Ok(object)
    }
}

Custom multi-field methods

A custom multi-field method (select = name(...), select_many = name(...), update = name(...), delete = name(...)) is always =, AND-joined — #[table(op = "...")] never applies here, on purpose: a field's own comparison operator staying fixed to that field keeps a struct's attributes readable at a glance, instead of the same field silently meaning something different in every method that references it.

If you need something more than a plain AND of equalities — OR, NOT, a different operator, anything — give the method a raw filter template instead of a field list: a single quoted string where $field is only the bound-value placeholder (numbered by first occurrence; the same field referenced twice reuses one number). The column name, =, OR, AND, NOT, parens, anything else in the string is your own SQL, passed through unchanged.

use sql_macros::SqlSelectMany;

#[derive(SqlSelectMany)]
#[table(select_many = search_users(
    "email=$email OR (is_active=$is_active AND NOT is_removed=$is_removed)"
))]
pub struct User {
    pub id: i32,
    pub email: String,
    pub is_active: bool,
    pub is_removed: bool,
}

View generated code

impl User {
    #[doc = "SELECT id, email, is_active, is_removed FROM users WHERE email=$1 OR (is_active=$2 AND NOT is_removed=$3)"]
    pub async fn search_users(
        pool: &sqlx::PgPool,
        email: String,
        is_active: bool,
        is_removed: bool,
    ) -> Result<Vec<User>, sqlx::Error> {
        let object = sqlx::query_as!(
            User,
            "SELECT id, email, is_active, is_removed FROM users WHERE email=$1 OR (is_active=$2 AND NOT is_removed=$3)",
            email,
            is_active,
            is_removed
        )
        .fetch_all(pool)
        .await?;
        Ok(object)
    }
}

This works the same way for update = name("..."), except the placeholders are numbered after the SET columns, same as a plain field list would be.

Select with enum

use sql_macros::SqlSelect;

#[derive(Debug, sqlx::Type)]
#[sqlx(type_name = "role", rename_all = "snake_case")]
pub enum Role {
    Admin,
    User,
    SuperAdmin,
}

#[derive(SqlSelect)]
pub struct User {
    #[table(select)]
    pub id: i32,

Attention

return_type without return_fields generates RETURNING *. That's a problem if the return type has a column with a Postgres enum (or other custom) type — sqlx::query_as! needs an AS "col!: Type" annotation to decode it, and * can't carry one, since the macro only ever sees return_type as a type name (a token), not the return type's own field list — it has no way to know that field needs an override.

#[derive(Debug, sqlx::FromRow)]
pub struct User {
    pub id: i32,
    pub email: String,
    pub role: Role,
}

#[derive(Debug, SqlInsert)]
#[table(name = "users", return_type = User)]
pub struct CreateUser {
    pub email: String,
}

Why this fails

error: no built in mapping found for type role of column "role";
a type override may be required, see documentation for details

The fix: write the annotation yourself in return_fields — it's inserted into the query as plain text, so anything valid after RETURNING works, including a type override:

#[table(name = "users", return_type = User, return_fields = "id, email, role AS \"role!: Role\"")]
