Method: Sequel::SQLite::DatasetMethods#insert_conflict

Defined in:

lib/sequel/adapters/shared/sqlite.rb

#insert_conflict(opts = :ignore) ⇒ Object

Handle uniqueness violations when inserting, by using a specified resolution algorithm. With no options, uses INSERT OR REPLACE. SQLite supports the following conflict resolution algoriths: ROLLBACK, ABORT, FAIL, IGNORE and REPLACE.

On SQLite 3.24.0+, you can pass a hash to use an ON CONFLICT clause. With out :update option, uses ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING. Options:

:conflict_where

The index filter, when using a partial index to determine uniqueness.

:target

The column name or expression to handle uniqueness violations on.

:update

A hash of columns and values to set. Uses ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE.

:update_where

A WHERE condition to use for the update.

Examples:

DB[:table].insert_conflict.insert(a: 1, b: 2)
# INSERT OR IGNORE INTO TABLE (a, b) VALUES (1, 2)

DB[:table].insert_conflict(:replace).insert(a: 1, b: 2)
# INSERT OR REPLACE INTO TABLE (a, b) VALUES (1, 2)

DB[:table].insert_conflict({}).insert(a: 1, b: 2)
# INSERT INTO TABLE (a, b) VALUES (1, 2)
# ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING

DB[:table].insert_conflict(target: :a).insert(a: 1, b: 2)
# INSERT INTO TABLE (a, b) VALUES (1, 2)
# ON CONFLICT (a) DO NOTHING

DB[:table].insert_conflict(target: :a, conflict_where: {c: true}).insert(a: 1, b: 2)
# INSERT INTO TABLE (a, b) VALUES (1, 2)
# ON CONFLICT (a) WHERE (c IS TRUE) DO NOTHING

DB[:table].insert_conflict(target: :a, update: {b: Sequel[:excluded][:b]}).insert(a: 1, b: 2)
# INSERT INTO TABLE (a, b) VALUES (1, 2)
# ON CONFLICT (a) DO UPDATE SET b = excluded.b

DB[:table].insert_conflict(target: :a,
  update: {b: Sequel[:excluded][:b]}, update_where: {Sequel[:table][:status_id] => 1}).insert(a: 1, b: 2)
# INSERT INTO TABLE (a, b) VALUES (1, 2)
# ON CONFLICT (a) DO UPDATE SET b = excluded.b WHERE (table.status_id = 1)
