Transact-SQL template combinators.

Playground

Observable playground

Usage

pnpm add -E @appliedblockchain/tsql
import * as Tsql from '@appliedblockchain/tsql`

Architecture

Tagged templates and functional combinators are used to sanitise and help with generating Microsoft SQL's T-SQL queries.

Basic combinators (eq, gt, in etc.) are provided together with more complex ones (merge1n, inline-table-*, upsert-objects etc).

Auto sanitation

Values used in templates go through auto sanitation:

  • sanitised values are left as is
  • undefined and null become sanitised null
  • finite numbers become sanitised decimal numbers
  • booleans are sanitised as 1 (true) or 0 (false)
  • strings are sanitised as unicode string N'foo'
  • dates are sanitised as iso datetime strings
  • buffers are sanitised as hex literals if Buffer is defined
  • other objects are sanitised as json stringified unicode strings, ie. {foo:1} becomes N'{"foo":1}'
  • non-finite numbers throw as they are not supported by mssql
  • all other values throw

undefined propagation

Binary operators (eq, ne, gt, gte, lt, lte, in, notIn), logical operators (and, or) and where clauses perform undefined propagation:

  • when right hand side of binary operator is undefined the whole term (returned result) is also undefined
  • and, or and where combinators omit undefined values

Above means that undefined values are composed to generate desired sql queries.

Typescript's type system can be leveraged:

// Allow querying for specific numeric value only. Please note only finite values are supported – `Infinity`, `-Infinity`, `NaN` will throw.
const query =
  ({ deletedAt }: { deletedAt: number }) =>
    tsql`select * from Foo where ${tsql.where(where)}`

// Allow ommiting param.
const query =
  ({ deletedAt }: { deletedAt?: number }) =>
    tsql`select * from Foo where ${tsql.where(where)}`

// Allow ommiting or explicitly using `undefined` value to omit value.
const query =
  ({ deletedAt }: { deletedAt?: undefined | number }) =>
    tsql`select * from Foo where ${tsql.where(where)}`

// Allow `null` (`deletedAt is null`) or number.
const query =
  ({ deletedAt }: { deletedAt: null | number }) =>
    tsql`select * from Foo where ${tsql.where(where)}`

// Allow ommiting, explicit `undefined` (omit), `null` (`... is null`) or number.
const query =
  ({ deletedAt }: { deletedAt?: undefined | null | number }) =>
    tsql`select * from Foo where ${tsql.where(where)}`

No exact object type in typescript

It is worth noting that, unlike flow, typescript unfortunatelly doesn't support exact object types.

What this means is that the following form should be avoided:

// BAD
const query =
  (where: { deletedAt: number }) =>
    tsql`select * from Foo where ${tsql.where(where)}`

Instead use destructuring to simulate exactness:

const query =
  ({ deletedAt }: { deletedAt: number }) =>
    tsql`select * from Foo where ${tsql.where({ deletedAt })}`

It won't flag invalid usage during type check but the function will behave as expected from the type definition.

where currying

When using where combinator, is-currying combinator is very handy which defers first argument application. where combinator is aware of those curried functions and will inject the first argument (left hand side of binary operator) using the key name:

tsql`select * from Foo where ${where({ foo: is(gt, 5) })}`
// select * from Foo where foo > 5

MongoDB like where queries

where combinator supports MongoDB like queries:

const where = { id: { $gt: 123 }, state: { $in: [ 'PENDING', 'RETRY' ] } }
tsql`select * from Foo ${tsql.where(where)}`

Supported operators:

  • unary
    • { $not: ... }
  • logical
    • { $or: [ ... ] }
    • { $and: [ ... ] }
    • { foo: ..., bar: ... } - implicitly and
  • binary
    • { foo: ... } – implicit equal
    • { $eq: ... }
    • { $gt: ... }
    • { $gte: ... }
    • { $in: ... }
    • { $like: ... }mssql like pattern matching
    • { $lt: ... }
    • { $lte: ... }
    • { $ne: ... }
    • { $ng: ... } – not greater
    • { $nl: ... } – not less
    • { $notIn: [ ... ] }
    • { $nin: [ ... ] } – alias for $notIn
    • { $distinct: ... } – emulated lhs is distinct from rhs
    • { $notDistinct: ... } – emulated lhs is not distinct from rhs
    • { $ndistinct: ... } – alias for $notDistinct

Json value identifiers

Identifiers of C->Q form are expanded to json_value(C, Q) form. Identifiers of C~>Q form are expanded to json_query(C, Q) form, where Q is optional.

tsql.update('Actions', { 'payloadJson->$.retries': { $gt: 3 } }, { status: 'CANCELLED' })

Renders:

update Actions
set status = N'CANCELLED'
where (json_value(payloadJson, N'$.retries') > 3)
