Overview

Sequel extends Hash to add methods to implement the SQL DSL.

Instance Method Details

#&(ce) ⇒ Object

Return a Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression created from this hash, matching all of the conditions in this hash and the condition specified by the given argument.

{:a=>1} & :b # SQL: a = 1 AND b
{:a=>true} & ~:b # SQL: a IS TRUE AND NOT b

# File 'lib/sequel/extensions/core_extensions.rb', line 108

def &(ce)
  ::Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression.new(:AND, self, ce)
end

#case(*args) ⇒ Object

Return a Sequel::SQL::CaseExpression with this hash as the conditions and the given default value. Note that the order of the conditions will be arbitrary on ruby 1.8, so all conditions should be orthogonal.

{{:a=>[2,3]}=>1}.case(0) # SQL: CASE WHEN a IN (2, 3) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
{:a=>1, :b=>2}.case(:d, :c) # SQL: CASE c WHEN a THEN 1 WHEN b THEN 2 ELSE d END
                              #  or: CASE c WHEN b THEN 2 WHEN a THEN 1 ELSE d END

# File 'lib/sequel/extensions/core_extensions.rb', line 138

def case(*args)
  ::Sequel::SQL::CaseExpression.new(to_a, *args)
end

#hstore ⇒ Object

Create a new HStore using the receiver as the input hash. Note that the HStore created will not use the receiver as the backing store, since it has to modify the hash. To get the new backing store, use:

hash.hstore.to_hash

# File 'lib/sequel/extensions/pg_hstore.rb', line 328

def hstore
  Sequel::Postgres::HStore.new(self)
end

#pg_json ⇒ Object

Return a Sequel::Postgres::JSONHash proxy to the receiver. This is mostly useful as a short cut for creating JSONHash objects that didn’t come from the database.

# File 'lib/sequel/extensions/pg_json.rb', line 204

def pg_json
  Sequel::Postgres::JSONHash.new(self)
end

#sql_expr ⇒ Object

Return a Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression created from this hash, matching all of the conditions. Rarely do you need to call this explicitly, as Sequel generally assumes that hashes specify this type of condition.

{:a=>true}.sql_expr # SQL: a IS TRUE
{:a=>1, :b=>[2, 3]}.sql_expr # SQL: a = 1 AND b IN (2, 3)

# File 'lib/sequel/extensions/core_extensions.rb', line 148

def sql_expr
  ::Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression.from_value_pairs(self)
end

#sql_negate ⇒ Object

Return a Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression created from this hash, matching none of the conditions.

{:a=>true}.sql_negate # SQL: a IS NOT TRUE
{:a=>1, :b=>[2, 3]}.sql_negate # SQL: a != 1 AND b NOT IN (2, 3)



157
158
159
 
# File 'lib/sequel/extensions/core_extensions.rb', line 157

def sql_negate
  ::Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression.from_value_pairs(self, :AND, true)
end

#sql_or ⇒ Object

Return a Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression created from this hash, matching any of the conditions.

{:a=>true}.sql_or # SQL: a IS TRUE
{:a=>1, :b=>[2, 3]}.sql_or # SQL: a = 1 OR b IN (2, 3)

# File 'lib/sequel/extensions/core_extensions.rb', line 166

def sql_or
  ::Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression.from_value_pairs(self, :OR)
end

#|(ce) ⇒ Object

Return a Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression created from this hash, matching all of the conditions in this hash or the condition specified by the given argument.

{:a=>1} | :b # SQL: a = 1 OR b
{:a=>true} | ~:b # SQL: a IS TRUE OR NOT b

# File 'lib/sequel/extensions/core_extensions.rb', line 118

def |(ce)
  ::Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression.new(:OR, self, ce)
end

#~ ⇒ Object

Return a Sequel::SQL::BooleanExpression created from this hash, not matching all of the conditions.

~{:a=>true} # SQL: a IS NOT TRUE
~{:a=>1, :b=>[2, 3]} # SQL: a != 1 OR b NOT IN (2, 3)
