## Getting Started
Install with:
```bash
> spago install postgresql
# (npm | yarn | bun) install pg
```
Next, create a pool [`Config`] object:
```purescript
-- from a connection string:
pgConfig =
{ connectionString: "postgresql://postgres:password@localhost:5432/postgres"
}
-- or explicitly:
pgConfig =
{ username: "postgres"
, password: "password"
, host: "localhost"
, port: 5432
, database: "postgres"
}
```
Then in an `Aff`, use `runPostgres` to connect to the database and execute
queries:
```purescript
module Main where
import Prelude
import Effect (Effect)
import Effect.Class (liftEffect)
import Effect.Aff (launchAff_)
import Effect.Console (log)
import Control.Monad.Postgres (runPostgres, query)
main :: Effect Unit
main =
launchAff_ do
msg <- runPostgres pgConfig $ query "select 'hello, world!'"
liftEffect $ log msg -- logs 'hello, world!'
```
[`runPostgres`] creates a connection pool, then executes a
[`PostgresT`](#monads-postgrest) monad, which is an `Aff` with access
to a connection pool.
```purescript
runPostgres :: forall a. <partial config> -> PostgresT Aff a -> Aff a
```
[`query`] accepts any `q` that can be turned [into a query][`AsQuery`]
(here just a `String`), and [unmarshals][`FromRows`] the result into a
destination type `r`.
`query` is from [`MonadSession`], which [`PostgresT`] implements:
```purescript
class MonadSession m where
query :: forall q r. AsQuery q => FromRows r => q -> m r
-- ...
```
## Data
Single SQL values are serialized to and deserialized from JS via [`pg-types`]
(with some [tweaks][`modifyPgTypes`]).
The conversion between [`Raw`] JS values and purescript values is done
with the [`Serialize`] and [`Deserialize`] typeclasses.
The [`Rep`] class indicates a type is [`Rep`]resentable as a SQL value.
[`Rep`] is automatically implemented for all types that are [`Serialize`]
and [`Deserialize`].
Implementations are provided for `Int`, `String`, `DateTime`, `Buffer`,
`BigInt`, `Boolean`, `Number`, `Array`, [`Range`]s, `Maybe`, [`Null`]
and `Unit`.
### Data - Rows
A single row (multiple SQL values) are deserialized using [`FromRow`],
which is implemented for:
- n-tuples of [`Rep`] types
- `Array a` where `a` is [`Rep`]
- A single [`Rep`] type
Examples:
```purescript
(fromRow [] :: Maybe Int) == Nothing
(fromRow [1] :: Maybe Int) == Just 1
(fromRow [1, 2] :: Maybe Int) == Just 1
(fromRow [] :: Int /\ Int) == Error
(fromRow [1, 2] :: Int /\ Int) == 1 /\ 2
(fromRow [] :: Array Int) == []
(fromRow [1, 2] :: Array Int) == [1, 2]
```
Multiple rows are deserialized using [`FromRows`],
which is implemented for:
- `Array a` where `a` is [`FromRow`]
- `Maybe a` where `a` is [`FromRow`] (equivalent to `Array.head <<< fromRows`)
- `a` where `a` is [`FromRow`] (throws if 0 rows yielded)
- `RowsAffected`
- Extracts the number of rows processed by the last command in the query (ex. `INSERT INTO foo (bar) VALUES ('a'), ('b')` -> `INSERT 2` -> `RowsAffected 2`)
### Data - Ranges
Postgres ranges are represented with [`Range`].
[`Range`]s can be created with:
- `mempty` - an unbounded range
- [`Range.lt`]` a` - `(,a)`
- [`Range.lte`]` a` - `(,a]`
- [`Range.gt`]` a` - `(a,)`
- [`Range.gte`]` a` - `[a,)`
and combined with `append`:
```purescript
mempty <> lt 100 -- (,100)
gte 10 <> lt 100 -- [10,100)
```
## Queries
Queries can be executed with any type that implements [`AsQuery`],
which converts it into a [`Query`]:
```purescript
newtype Query = Query { text :: String, values :: Array Raw, name :: Maybe String }
class AsQuery a where
asQuery :: a -> Effect Query
```
[`AsQuery`] is implemented for:
- [`Query`]
- `String`
- `String /\ n` where `n` is:
- n-tuple of [`Rep`] query parameters
- a single [`Rep`] query parameter
- `Array `[`Raw`]
### Queries - Builder
For complex parameterized queries, there is a provided [`Query.Builder`]:
```purescript
runPostgres {} do
exec_ "create table person (id int, first_name text, last_name text, age int, born timestamptz);"
exec_
$ Query.Builder.build
$ do
id <- Query.Builder.param 1
firstName <- Query.Builder.param "Henry"
lastName <- Query.Builder.param "Cavill"
age <- Query.Builder.param 38
born <- Query.Builder.param "1985-05-05"
pure
$ intercalate "\n"
[ "insert into person (id, first_name, last_name, age, born)"
, "values"
, "("
, intercalate ", " [id, firstName, lastName, age, born])
, ")"
]
```
[`Query.Builder.param`] accepts any [`Rep`] value and returns a string (ex. `"$2"`)
that will reference that value in the query.
[`Query.Builder.build`] renders the query to [`Query`]
## Monads
### Monads - `PostgresT`
[`PostgresT`] is the database driver's main entry point,
and is just an `Aff` with access to a [`Pool`].
Run in `Aff` with [`runPostgres`]:
```purescript
main :: Effect Unit
main =
launchAff_ do
hi <- runPostgres {} $ query "select 'hi!'"
liftEffect $ log hi
```
Execute [`SessionT`] monads with [`session`] or [`transaction`]:
```purescript
dbMain :: PostgresT Aff Unit
dbMain = do
transaction do
exec_ """
create table persons
( id int primary key generated always as identity
, name text not null unique
);
"""
exec_ $ "insert into persons (name) values ($1);" /\ "Henry"
pure unit
```
Implements [`MonadSession`] as a shorthand for single-query [`session`]s:
```purescript
dbMain :: PostgresT Aff Int
dbMain = exec_ $ "insert into persons (name) values ($1);" /\ "Sarah"
-- equivalent to:
-- dbMain = session $ exec_ ...
```
Execute [`CursorT`] monads with [`cursor`]:
```purescript
dbMain :: PostgresT Aff Int
dbMain =
cursor @(Int /\ String) "people_cursor" "select id, name from persons" do
a <- fetchOne -- Just (1 /\ "Henry")
b <- fetchOne -- Just (2 /\ "Sarah")
void $ move (MoveRelative -2)
c <- fetchAll -- [1 /\ "Henry", 2 /\ "Sarah"]
d <- fetchOne -- Nothing
```
### Monads - `SessionT`
[`SessionT`] is an `Aff` with access to a [`Client`]
issued by a [`Pool`], connected to the database.
Run in [`PostgresT`] with [`session`] or [`transaction`]
Perform queries with [`query`], [`exec`] or [`exec_`]
### Monads - `CursorT`
[`CursorT`] is a transaction [`SessionT`] with access to a named server-side cursor.
Run in [`PostgresT`] with [`cursor`]
## `node-postgres` style
You may also choose to use the `Aff` API directly, which closely mirrors
the api of [`node-postgres`]:
- [`Client`]
- create with [`Client.make`] or [`Client.connected`]
- execute queries with [`Client.query`], [`Client.queryRaw`] or [`Client.exec`]
- release with [`Client.end`]
- [`Pool`]
- create with [`Pool.make`]
- issue clients with [`Pool.connect`]
- release clients with [`Pool.release`] or [`Pool.destroy`]
- release with [`Pool.end`]
