A Python module used for interacting with sql database using LINQ syntax.

Py-Linq-SQL

A Python module used for interacting with sql database using LINQ syntax. The project is under EUPL License v1.2.

Py-linq-sql allows you to go from (SQLAlchemy using direct text query):

conn.execute(
  text(
    """SELECT "data"->'obj'->'name' as name """
    """FROM "objects" """
    """WHERE "data"->'obj'->>'name' == "earth" """
    """AND CAST("data"->'obj'->'mass' > 0.5 AS Decimal) """
    """LIMIT 1 OFFSET 2"""
  )
)

to the safer and easier to read:

sqle = (
  SQLEnumerable(conn, "objects")  # objects is the name of the table
  .select(lambda x: {"name": x.data.obj.name})  # data is a JSONB column
  .where(lambda x: x.data.obj.mass > 0.5)  # data is a JSONB column
  .skip(2)
  .take(1)  # this is the last part of the query, till there nothing is executed
  .execute()  # now we ask for the whole query to be executed on the DB server
)

Pro :

• all the query expression are expressed in pure python expression
• easy support of JSON database using a simple object notation
• very difficult to have an SQL injection (only the names of the tables are strings)
• standardized syntax/API of LINQ (used in java, C# and many .net languages)
• very fast: even very long and complex queries are executed in one single query on the server
• no need to define a class for every table in the DB as you would do in an ORM here you write query assuming the tables, columns and fields exist, if not then you get a clear error about it
• results are pylinq Enumerable that are themselves queryable in same way but locally
• all kinds of join (inner, outer and full, with or without intersections) are easy to use and combine with any kind of query

Cons :

• currently only support PostgresQL
