rebecca

Simple database convenience wrapper for Go language.

Documentation

Docs are available on http://godoc.org/github.com/waterlink/rebecca

Installation

go get -u github.com/waterlink/rebecca

Usage

import "github.com/waterlink/rebecca"

It is recommended to import it as a bec shortcut to save some keystrokes:

import bec "github.com/waterlink/rebecca"

Designing record

type Person struct {
        rebecca.ModelMetadata `tablename:"people"`

        ID   int    `rebecca:"id" rebecca_primary:"true"`
        Name string `rebecca:"name"`
        Age  int    `rebecca:"age"`
}

Enabling specific driver

import "github.com/waterlink/rebecca/driver/pg"

And in code:

rebecca.SetupDriver(pg.NewDriver("postgres://user:pass@host:port/database?sslmode=sslmode"))

List of supported drivers

github.com/waterlink/rebecca/driver/pg - driver for postgresql. Docs
TODO:
- github.com/waterlink/rebecca/driver/cassandra - driver for cassandra.
- github.com/waterlink/rebecca/driver/mysql - driver for mysql.
- github.com/waterlink/rebecca/driver/mongo - driver for mongodb.

Fetching the record

var p Person
if err := rebecca.Get(&p, ID); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

// use &p at this point as a found model instance

Saving record

// creates new record
p := &Person{Name: "John Smith", Age: 31}
if err := rebecca.Save(p); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

// updates the record
p := &Person{}
if err := rebecca.Get(p, ID); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

p.Age++
if err := rebecca.Save(p); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

Fetching all records

people := []Person{}
if err := rebecca.All(&people); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

// people slice will contain found records

Fetching specific records

kids := []Person{}
if err := rebecca.Where(&kids, "age < $1", 12); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

// kids slice will contain found records

Fetching only first record

kid := &Person{}
if err := rebecca.First(kid, "age < $1", 12); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

// kid will contain found first record

Removing record

// Given p is *Person:
if err := rebecca.Remove(p); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

Executing query and discarding its result

if err := rebecca.Exec("UPDATE counters SET value = value + 1 WHERE id = $1", ID); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

Fetching count for something

First lets define the view for this purpose:

type PeopleCount struct {
          rebecca.ModelMetadata `tablename:"people"`

          Count int `rebecca:"count(id)"`
}

And then, lets query for this count:

kidsCount := &PeopleCount{}
if err := rebecca.First(kidsCount, "age < $1", 12); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

// Now you can use `kidsCount.Count`

Using order, limit and skip

For example, to fetch second 300 records ordered by age.

For that purpose use rebecca.Context struct, documentation on which and all available options can be found here: rebecca.Context

ctx := &rebecca.Context{Order: "age ASC", Limit: 300, Skip: 300}
// you can also use `Offset: 300`

kidsBatch := []Person{}
if err := ctx.Where(&kidsBatch, "age < $1", 12); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

// Now you can use kidsBatch as a second batch of 300 records ordered by age.

This example uses following options:

Order - ordering of the query, maps to ORDER BY clause in various SQL dialects.
Limit - maximum amount of records to be queried, maps to LIMIT clause.
Skip (or its alias Offset) - defines amount of records to skip, maps to OFFSET clause.

Don't confuse rebecca.Context with this interface: rebecca/context. This interface is internal and used only by drivers. rebecca.Context implements it. This interface is required to avoid circular dependencies.

Using aggregation

First, lets define our view for aggregation results:

type PeopleByAge struct {
        rebecca.ModelMetadata `tablename:"people"`

        Age   int `rebecca:"age"`
        Count int `rebecca:"count(distinct(id))"`
}

Next, lets query this using the Context:

ctx := &rebecca.Context{Group: "age"}

peopleByAge := []PeopleByAge{}
if err := ctx.All(&peopleByAge); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

// Now peopleByAge represents slice of age => count relationship.

This example uses folowing option of rebecca.Context:

Group - defines grouping criteria of the query, maps to GROUP BY clause in various SQL dialects.

Using transactions

Simple usage

rebecca.Transact(func(tx *rebecca.Transaction) error {
	p := &Person{...}
	if err != tx.Save(p); err != nil {
		return fmt.Errorf("Unable to save person - %s", err)
	}

  // .. do more stuff within transaction ..
})

In case provided function returned error or panicked, it will roll transaction back. Otherwise it will commit it.

Advanced usage

First, obtain rebecca.Transaction object by doing:

tx, err := rebecca.Begin()
if err != nil {
        // handle error here
}
defer tx.Rollback()

Next, use tx as if it was rebecca normally:

p := &Person{Name: "John Smith", Age: 29}
if err := tx.Save(p); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

// use tx.Save, tx.Get, tx.Where, tx.All, tx.First, tx.Exec as you would
// normally do with `rebecca`

And finally, commit the transaction:

if err := tx.Commit(); err != nil {
        // handle error, if it is impossible to commit the transaction
}

Or rollback, if you need to:

tx.Rollback()

Don't worry about doing defer tx.Rollback() in your functions. tx.Rollback(), when done after commit, is a noop.

Using Context with Transactions

To use context with transaction, you just need to create context using your transaction instance:

ctx := tx.Context(&rebecca.Context{Order: "age DESC"})
people := []Person{}
if err := ctx.Where(&people, "age < $1", 23); err != nil {
        // handle error here
}

Development

After cloning and cd-ing into this repo, run go get ./... to get all dependencies going.

Next make sure current codebase is in green state with go test ./....

It is encouraged to use TDD, i.e.: first write/change a test for your change, then make it green by making necessary modifications to the source.

Make sure your editor runs goimports tool on save.

When you are done, make sure you have run whole test suite, golint ./... and go vet ./....
