Project description

test python supported versions

Dataclass Sqlalchemy Mixins


Package requirements

  • python >= 3.8.1
  • pydantic >= 1.9
  • sqlalchemy >= 1.4.0

Installation

# without extras 
pip install dataclass-sqlalchemy-mixins

# with pydantic 
pip install dataclass-sqlalchemy-mixins[pydantic]

Description

This package consists of the several important parts:

  1. Helper mixins which directly interacts with SQLAlchemy to apply filters and orderings to a query or get binary/unary SQLAlchemy expressions that can be applied when required
  2. Pydantic dataclasses mixins that are used as proxies for helper mixins

Usage

It is important to set the SQLAlchemy model in the ConverterConfig that you are going to query in the dataclass you are creating. This package supports sql operations: eq, in, not_in, gt, lt, gte, lte, not, is, is_not, like, ilike, isnull. To apply a filter to a field, the filter should be formatted like field_name__{sql_op}. Filtering though a foreign key supported using field_name__foreigh_key_field__{sql_op}. To perform sorting the value should be passed as id to ASC and -name to DESC. Inner joins will be applied automatically if using pydantic mixins.

Direct

Starting from version 0.2.0, get_binary_expressions and get_unary_expressions were introduced, allowing filters and ordering to be obtained without inheriting from dataclasses. You just need to pass filters/order_by and a model you want to apply them to. There are located in utils.

Filter:

from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.base import utils

filters = {
    'id__gte': 1,
    'name__in': ['abc', 'def'],
    'object__place': 1,
}

binary_expressions = utils.get_binary_expressions(
    filters=filters,
    model=SomeModel
)

query = query.filter(*binary_expressions)

Order by:

from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.base import utils

order_by = ['id', '-name']

unary_expressions = utils.get_unary_expressions(
    order_by=order_by,
    model=SomeModel,
)

query = query.order_by(*unary_expressions)

Custom dataclasses

It is possible to apply mixins to custom dataclasses by inheriting from either SqlAlchemyFilterConverterMixin for filters or SqlAlchemyOrderConverterMixin for orderings.

Filter:

import typing

from dataclasses import dataclass, asdict

from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.base.mixins import SqlAlchemyFilterConverterMixin

@dataclass
class CustomDataclass(SqlAlchemyFilterConverterMixin):
    id__gte: int = None
    name__in: typing.List[str] = None
    object__place: int = None 
    
    class ConverterConfig:
        model = SomeModel 
    
    def dict(self):
        return {k: str(v) for k, v in asdict(self).items() if v is not None}


custom_dataclass = CustomDataclass(
    id__gte=1,
    name__in=['abc', 'def'],
    object__place=1,
)

binary_expressions = custom_dataclass.get_binary_expressions(custom_dataclass.dict())

query = query.filter(*binary_expressions)

Order by:

import typing

from dataclasses import dataclass

from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.base.mixins import SqlAlchemyOrderConverterMixin

@dataclass
class CustomDataclass(SqlAlchemyOrderConverterMixin):
    order_by: typing.Optional[typing.Union[str, typing.List[str]]] = None
    
    class ConverterConfig:
        model = SomeModel 

custom_dataclass = CustomDataclass(
    order_by=['id', '-name']
)

unary_expressions = custom_dataclass.get_unary_expressions(custom_dataclass.order_by)

query = query.order_by(*unary_expressions)

Pydantic

Filter:

import typing

from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.pydantic_mixins.sqlalchemy_base_models import SqlAlchemyFilterBaseModel

class CustomBaseModel(SqlAlchemyFilterBaseModel):
    id__gte: int = None
    name__in: typing.List[str] = None
    object__place: int = None 
    
    class ConverterConfig:
        model = SomeModel 
    

custom_basemodel = CustomBaseModel(
    id__gte=1,
    name__in=['abc', 'def'],
    object__place=1,
)

binary_expressions = custom_basemodel.to_binary_expressions()

query = query.filter(*binary_expressions)

# or

query = custom_basemodel.apply_filters(query=query)

Sometimes, it is necessary to manipulate sent data before applying filters. For example, a field should not be directly converted to a filter; instead, custom logic should be applied. As of version 0.1.3, the to_binary_expressions and apply_filters methods accept the export_params argument to address this situation. Values mentioned in the Pydantic dictionary export section can be sent as export_params.

import typing

from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.pydantic_mixins.sqlalchemy_base_models import SqlAlchemyFilterBaseModel

class CustomBaseModel(SqlAlchemyFilterBaseModel):
    id__gte: int = None
    name__in: typing.List[str] = None
    filter_to_exclude: typing.Any = None 
    
    class ConverterConfig:
        model = SomeModel 
    

custom_basemodel = CustomBaseModel(
    id__gte=1,
    name__in=['abc', 'def'],
    filter_to_exclude="filter_value",
)

# filter_to_exclude field will be excluded from converting basemodel to sqlalchemy filters

binary_expression = custom_basemodel.to_binary_expressions(
    export_params={'exclude': {'filter_to_exclude'}, }
)

query = query.filter(*binary_expression)

# or

query = custom_basemodel.apply_filters(
    query=query,
    export_params={'exclude': {'filter_to_exclude'}, }
)

Order by:

import typing

from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.pydantic_mixins.sqlalchemy_base_models import SqlAlchemyOrderBaseModel

class CustomBaseModel(SqlAlchemyOrderBaseModel):
    id__gte: int = None
    name__in: typing.List[str] = None
    object__place: int = None 
    
    class ConverterConfig:
        model = SomeModel 
    
custom_basemodel = CustomBaseModel(
    order_by=['id', '-name']
)

unary_expressions = custom_basemodel.get_unary_expressions(custom_dataclass.order_by)

query = query.order_by(*unary_expressions)

# or 

query = custom_basemodel.apply_order_by(query)

FastApi support

Dataclasses inherited from SqlAlchemyFilterBaseModel or SqlAlchemyOrderBaseModel normally produce the correct documentation. However, there is one issue that should be mentioned: FastAPI has trouble creating documentation when a complex type is set as an annotation for Query parameters. This includes lists.

The extra parameter was introduced to address these situations which can be set in ConverterConfig. Currently, this parameter only accepts a dictionary with one key: BaseModelConverterExtraParams.LIST_AS_STRING. This key instructs the converter to treat the passed string as a list in the context of filtering and ordering.

For example, a class defined like this will convert the value passed for field__in into a list when applying filters and orderings. The value passed for another_field__in won't be treated a list because the field wasn't included in the fields set in extra.

Another parameter can be used is expected_types. It is used to define which as which type should be elements of the list treated as when a str converted to a list. If an expected type is not passed for a field it will be converted to a str.

from fastapi import Query

from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.pydantic_mixins.sqlalchemy_base_models import BaseModelConverterExtraParams
from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.pydantic_mixins.sqlalchemy_base_models import SqlAlchemyFilterBaseModel

class SomeSqlAlchemyFilterModel(SqlAlchemyFilterBaseModel):
    field__in: str = Query(None)
    another_field__in: str = Query(None)

    class ConverterConfig:
        model = SomeModel
        extra = {
            BaseModelConverterExtraParams.LIST_AS_STRING: {
                'fields': ['field__in', ],
                'expected_types': {
                    'field__in': int,
                }
            }
        }

The same applies to the classes inherited from SqlAlchemyOrderBaseModel, except that since the model accepts only the order_by field, it is not necessary to specify specific fields.

from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.pydantic_mixins.sqlalchemy_base_models import BaseModelConverterExtraParams
from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.pydantic_mixins.sqlalchemy_base_models import SqlAlchemyOrderBaseModel

class SomeSqlAlchemyOrderModel(SqlAlchemyOrderBaseModel):
    order_by: str = None

    class ConverterConfig:
        model = SomeModel
        extra = {
            BaseModelConverterExtraParams.LIST_AS_STRING: True
        }

Another possible solution

Also, it is possible not use ConverterConfig to correctly display lists in Query parameters using FastApi

import typing

from fastapi import Query

from dataclass_sqlalchemy_mixins.pydantic_mixins.sqlalchemy_base_models import SqlAlchemyFilterBaseModel

class SomeSqlAlchemyFilterModel(SqlAlchemyFilterBaseModel):
    field__in: str

    def __init__(self, field__in: typing.List[str] = Query(), **kwargs) -> None:
        super().__init__(field__in=field__in, **kwargs)
