= TQL
:source-highlighter: pygments

Compile-time ORM, inspired by Django ORM, written in Rust.
Tql is implemented as a procedural macro and even works on the stable version of Rust (https://github.com/antoyo/tql/tree/master/examples/todo-stable[look at this example to see how to use tql on stable]).

*This library is in alpha stage: it has not been thoroughly tested and its API may change at any time.*

== Requirements

Currently, `tql` only supports the `PostgreSQL` and `SQLite` databases (more databases will be supported in the future).
So, you need to install `PostgreSQL` (and/or `libsqlite3-sys`) in order to use this crate.

== Usage

First, add this to you `Cargo.toml`:

[source,toml]
----
[dependencies]
chrono = "^0.4.0"
tql_macros = "0.1"

[dependencies.tql]
features = ["chrono", "pg"]
version = "0.1"

[dependencies.postgres]
features = ["with-chrono"]
version = "^0.15.1"
----

(You can remove the `chrono` stuff if you don't want to use the date and time types in your model.)

Next, add this to your crate:

[source,rust]
----
#![feature(proc_macro_hygiene)]

extern crate chrono;
extern crate postgres;
extern crate tql;
#[macro_use]
extern crate tql_macros;

use postgres::{Connection, TlsMode};
use tql::PrimaryKey;
use tql_macros::sql;
----

Then, create your model:

[source,rust]
----
use chrono::DateTime;
use chrono::offset::Utc;

#[derive(SqlTable)]
struct Model {
id: PrimaryKey,
text: String,
date_added: DateTime,
// …
}
----

Next, create an accessor for your connection:

[source,rust]
----
fn get_connection() -> Connection {
Connection::connect("postgres://test:test@localhost/database", TlsMode::None).unwrap()
}
----

Finally, we can use the `sql!` macro to execute an SQL query:

[source,rust]
----
fn main() {
let connection = get_connection();

// We first create the table.
// (You might not want to execute this query every time.)
let _ = sql!(Model.create());

// Insert a row in the table.
let text = String::new();
let id = sql!(Model.insert(text = text, date_added = Utc::now())).unwrap();

// Update a row.
let result = sql!(Model.get(id).update(text = "new-text"));

// Delete a row.
let result = sql!(Model.get(id).delete());

// Query some rows from the table:
// get the last 10 rows sorted by date_added descending.
let items = sql!(Model.sort(-date_added)[..10]);
}
----

The `sql!()` macro uses the identifier `connection` by default.

Look at the https://github.com/antoyo/tql#syntax-table[following table] to see more examples.

== Usage with SQLite

First, change the `postgres` dependency to this one:

[source,toml]
----
rusqlite = "^0.13.0"
----

Then, change the features of the `tql` dependency:

[source,toml]
----
[dependencies.tql]
features = ["sqlite"]
version = "0.1"
----

In the Rust code, the connection needs to come from `rusqlite` now:

[source,rust]
----
use rusqlite::Connection;

fn get_connection() -> Connection {
Connection::open("database.db").unwrap()
}
----

And the rest is the same.

== Using on stable Rust

If you want to use `tql` on stable, there are a few changes that are required in order to work:

First, remove these lines:

[source,rust]
----
#![feature(proc_macro_hygiene)]

// …

use tql_macros::sql;
----

And add the following line before `extern crate tql`:

[source,rust]
----
#[macro_use]
----

This is how the start of the file now looks:

[source,rust]
----
extern crate chrono;
extern crate postgres;
#[macro_use]
extern crate tql;
#[macro_use]
extern crate tql_macros;

use postgres::{Connection, TlsMode};
use tql::PrimaryKey;
----

Finally, disable the `unstable` feature by updating the `tql` dependency to:

[source,toml]
----
[dependencies.tql]
default-features = false
features = ["chrono", "pg"]
version = "0.1"
----

With this small change, we can use the `sql!()`, but it now requires you to specify the connection:

[source.rust]
----
let date_added = Utc::now();
let id = sql!(connection, Model.insert(text = text, date_added = date_added)).unwrap();
----

Also, because of limitations on the stable compiler, you cannot use an expression for the arguments anymore:
that's why we now create a variable `date_added`.
For now, if you use `tql` on stable, you need to use identifiers or literals for arguments.

=== Why not always using the stable version?

Procedural macros do not currently support emitting errors at specific positions on the stable version, so with this version, you will get errors that are less useful, like in the following output:

[source]
----
error[E0308]: mismatched types
--> src/main.rs:47:18
|
47 | let result = sql!(Model.insert(text = text, date_added = Utc::now(), done = false));
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected &str, found struct `std::string::String`
|
= note: expected type `&str`
found type `std::string::String`
= help: try with `&sql!(Model.insert(text = text, date_added = Utc::now(), done = false))`
= note: this error originates in a macro outside of the current crate
----

While you will get this nicer error when using the nightly version of Rust:

[source]
----
error[E0308]: mismatched types
--> examples/todo.rs:49:46
|
49 | let result = sql!(Model.insert(text = text, date_added = Utc::now(), done = false));
| ^^^^
| |
| expected &str, found struct `std::string::String`
| help: consider borrowing here: `&text`
|
= note: expected type `&str`
found type `std::string::String`
----

So, a good workflow is to develop on nightly and then ship on stable.
This way, you get the best of both worlds:
you have nice errors and you can deploy with the stable version of the compiler.
This is not an issue at all because you're not supposed to have compiler errors when you're ready to deploy (and you can see the errors anyway).

NOTE: Compile with `RUSTFLAGS="--cfg procmacro2_semver_exempt"` to get even better error messages.
