RowQuery

A SQL-first Python library for querying and mapping data across multiple database backends.

Features

• Multi-Database Support: SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle with unified interface
• SQL-First Design: Load queries from .sql files organized in namespaces, or pass inline SQL directly
• Inline SQL: Execute raw SQL strings alongside registry keys — no registry required for ad-hoc queries
• SQL Sanitization: Configurable sanitizer strips comments, blocks statement stacking, and restricts SQL verbs
• Flexible Mapping: Map results to dataclasses, Pydantic models, or plain classes
• Aggregate Mapping: Reconstruct complex object graphs from joined queries (single-pass O(n))
• Transaction Management: Context manager support with automatic rollback
• Migration Management: Version-controlled database migrations
• Repository Pattern: Optional DDD-style repository base classes
• Async Support: Full async/await support for all operations
• Type Safe: Fully typed with mypy strict mode

Installation

Core (SQLite support included)

pip install rowquery

With Database Drivers

pip install rowquery[postgres]    # PostgreSQL
pip install rowquery[mysql]       # MySQL
pip install rowquery[oracle]      # Oracle
pip install rowquery[all]         # All drivers

Quick Start

1. Organize Your SQL Files

sql/
  user/
    get_by_id.sql
    list_active.sql
  order/
    create.sql

2. Execute Queries

from row_query import Engine, ConnectionConfig, SQLRegistry

config = ConnectionConfig(driver="sqlite", database="app.db")
registry = SQLRegistry("sql/")
engine = Engine.from_config(config, registry)

# Registry key lookup (dot-separated namespace)
user = engine.fetch_one("user.get_by_id", {"id": 1})
users = engine.fetch_all("user.list_active")
count = engine.fetch_scalar("user.count")

# Inline SQL — pass a raw SQL string directly
user = engine.fetch_one("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?", 1)
users = engine.fetch_all("SELECT * FROM users WHERE active = ?", True)
count = engine.fetch_scalar("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM users")
rows = engine.fetch_all("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id IN (?, ?)", [1, 2])

3. Map to Models

from dataclasses import dataclass
from row_query.mapping import ModelMapper

@dataclass
class User:
    id: int
    name: str
    email: str

mapper = ModelMapper(User)
user = engine.fetch_one("user.get_by_id", {"id": 1}, mapper=mapper)
# Returns: User(id=1, name="Alice", email="[e-mail]")

4. Aggregate Mapping (Reconstruct Object Graphs)

from row_query.mapping import aggregate, AggregateMapper
from dataclasses import dataclass

@dataclass
class Order:
    id: int
    total: float

@dataclass
class UserWithOrders:
    id: int
    name: str
    email: str
    orders: list[Order]

# Build mapping plan for complex object graph
plan = (
    aggregate(UserWithOrders, prefix="user__")
    .key("id")
    .auto_fields()
    .collection("orders", Order, prefix="order__", key="id")
    .build()
)

# Execute joined query and map in single pass
users = engine.fetch_all("user.with_orders", mapper=AggregateMapper(plan))

5. Transactions

# Use context manager for automatic rollback on error
with engine.transaction() as tx:
    tx.execute("user.create", {"name": "Alice", "email": "[e-mail]"})
    tx.execute("audit.log", {"action": "user_created"})
    # Commits on exit, rolls back on exception

6. SQL Sanitization

from row_query import Engine, SQLSanitizer

# Configure what inline SQL is permitted
sanitizer = SQLSanitizer(
    strip_comments=True,           # Remove -- and /* */ comments (default: True)
    block_multiple_statements=True, # Reject "SELECT 1; DROP TABLE t" (default: True)
    allowed_verbs=frozenset({"SELECT"}),  # Only allow SELECT statements (default: None = any)
)

engine = Engine.from_config(config, registry, sanitizer=sanitizer)

# Inline SQL is sanitized before execution
users = engine.fetch_all("SELECT * FROM users -- get all")  # comment stripped
engine.execute("DROP TABLE users")  # raises SQLSanitizationError (verb not allowed)
engine.execute("SELECT 1; DROP TABLE t")  # raises SQLSanitizationError (multiple statements)

# Registry queries are always trusted and never sanitized
users = engine.fetch_all("user.list_active")  # no sanitization applied

7. Async Support

from row_query import AsyncEngine, ConnectionConfig

config = ConnectionConfig(driver="sqlite", database="app.db")
engine = AsyncEngine.from_config(config, registry)

async def fetch_users():
    # Registry key or inline SQL — both work
    users = await engine.fetch_all("user.list_active")
    users = await engine.fetch_all("SELECT * FROM users WHERE active = ?", True)
    return users

# Async transactions
async with engine.transaction() as tx:
    await tx.execute("user.create", {"name": "Bob"})
    await tx.execute("INSERT INTO audit (action) VALUES (?)", "user_created")
