Tag: SPDO

SPDO version 1.0 beta Release Candidate 1 is out the door. This version adds the following:

Three custom Exception classes: SPDOError, ConnectionFailedError and ForeignKeyViolationError. Which are used (in order) when the program encounters an unknown sql error, a failure to connect to the database, and a violation of a foreign key constraint. Which means, of course, that foreign key constraints are now part of SPDO.

How this was accomplished is through the use of the new DbBuilder class. The DbBuilder class takes a multi-dimensional dict (Python) or array (PHP) of table and field data to build the tables and create triggers in MySQL and SQLite and add foreign keys in PostgreSQL. As an example consider the following:

In Python:

structure = {
    'authors':{
        'id':['primary_auto'],
        'first_name':['varchar(50)'],
        'last_name':['varchar(50)', 'NONULL', 'INDEX']
        },
    'books':{
        'id':['primary_auto'],
        'author_id':['int', "FK_CASCADE('authors','id')", 'INDEX'],
        'title':['varchar(100)','NONULL', 'INDEX']
        }
    }
dbb = DbBuilder(structure)
dbb.create()

In PHP:

$structure = array(
        'authors'=>array(
        'id'=>array('primary_auto'),
        'first_name'=>array('varchar(50)'),
        'last_name'=>array('varchar(50)', 'NONULL', 'INDEX')
    ),
    'books'=>array(
        'id'=>array('primary_auto'),
        'author_id'=>array('int', "FK_CASCADE('authors','id')", 'INDEX'),
        'title'=>array('varchar(100)','NONULL', 'INDEX')
    )
);
$dbb = DbBuilder($structure)
$dbb->create()

This results in the following queries to be executed:

In PostgreSQL:

CREATE TABLE authors (
    first_name VARCHAR(50) ,
    last_name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY 
 );
CREATE TABLE books (
    author_id INTEGER ,
    id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY ,
    title VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL
);
CREATE INDEX authors_last_name_idx ON authors(last_name_id);
CREATE INDEX books_author_id_idx ON books(author_id);
CREATE INDEX books_title_idx ON books(title);
ALTER TABLE books ADD FOREIGN KEY (author_id) REFERENCES authors(id) ON DELETE CASCADE;

In MySQL:

CREATE TABLE authors (
    id INTEGER NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
    first_name VARCHAR(50),
    last_name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE books (
    id INTEGER NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
    author_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
    title VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE fk_error_msg (
    error_msg VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
);
INSERT INTO fk_error_msg VALUES ('Foreign Key Constraint Violated!');
ALTER TABLE authors ADD INDEX(last_name);
ALTER TABLE books ADD INDEX(author_id);
ALTER TABLE books ADD INDEX(title);
CREATE TRIGGER fki_books_author_id
    BEFORE INSERT ON books
    FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
        IF
            0 = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM authors WHERE id=new.author_id)
        THEN
            INSERT fk_error_msg VALUES ('Foreign Key Constraint Violated!');
        END IF;
    END;
CREATE TRIGGER fku_books_author_id
    BEFORE UPDATE ON books
    FOR EACH ROW BEGIN 
        IF
            0 = ( SELECT COUNT(*) FROM authors WHERE id = new.author_id )
        THEN
            INSERT INTO fk_error_msg VALUES ('Foreign Key Constraint Violated!');
        END IF ;
    END;
CREATE TRIGGER fkdc_books_author_id
    BEFORE DELETE ON authors
    FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
        DELETE FROM books WHERE author_id=old.id;
    END;

In SQLite:

CREATE TABLE authors (
    id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
    first_name VARCHAR(50),
    last_name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE books (
    id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
    author_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
    title VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL
);
CREATE INDEX authors_last_name_idx ON authors(last_name);
CREATE INDEX books_author_id_idx ON books(author_id);
CREATE INDEX books_title_idx ON books(title);
CREATE TRIGGER fki_books_author_id
    BEFORE INSERT ON [books]
        FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
            SELECT RAISE(ROLLBACK, 'insert on table "books" violates foreign key constraint "fki_books_author_id"')
            WHERE NEW.author_id IS NOT NULL AND (SELECT id FROM authors WHERE id = NEW.author_id) IS NULL;
        END;
CREATE TRIGGER fku_books_author_id
    BEFORE UPDATE ON [books]
        FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
            SELECT RAISE(ROLLBACK, 'update on table "books" violates foreign key constraint "fku_books_author_id"')
            WHERE NEW.author_id IS NOT NULL AND (SELECT id FROM authors WHERE id = NEW.author_id) IS NULL;
        END;
CREATE TRIGGER fkdc_books_author_id
    BEFORE DELETE ON authors
        FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
            DELETE FROM books WHERE books.author_id = OLD.id;
        END;
