This library gives you a few options as to what kind of
schema to generate from JDBC metadata for Quill. You can choose to generate
simple case classes that are controlled entirely but a Quill Naming Strategy,
or a combination of case classes and querySchema
s.
You can also choose whether they should written to one file, multiple files, or
just a list of strings (useful for executing directly into a repl).
Thanks to the Slick code generator creators for providing inspiration for this library!
Currently the code generator is only available for JDBC databases but it will be extended in the future for Cassandra as well as others.
You can import the Code Generator using maven:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.getquill</groupId>
<artifactId>quill-codegen-jdbc_2.13</artifactId>
<version>3.10.0</version>
</dependency>
Or using sbt:
libraryDependencies += "io.getquill" %% "quill-codegen-jdbc" % "3.10.0"
This code generator generates simple case classes, each representing a table
in a database. It does not generate Quill querySchema
objects.
Create one or multiple CodeGeneratorConfig objects
and call the .writeFiles
or .writeStrings
methods
on the code generator to generate the code.
Given the following schema:
-- Using schema 'public'
create table public.Person (
id int primary key auto_increment,
first_name varchar(255),
last_name varchar(255),
age int not null
);
create table public.Address (
person_fk int not null,
street varchar(255),
zip int
);
You can invoke the SimpleJdbcCodegen like so:
// provide DB credentials with a com.typesafe.config.Config object
// (under the hood the credentials are used to create a HikariPool DataSource)
import io.getquill.codegen.jdbc.SimpleJdbcCodegen
import io.getquill.util.LoadConfig
val snakecaseConfig = LoadConfig(configPrefix: String)
val gen = new SimpleJdbcCodegen(snakecaseConfig, "com.my.project") {
override def nameParser = SnakeCaseNames
}
gen.writeFiles("src/main/scala/com/my/project")
// or, provide an initialized DataSource
import io.getquill.codegen.jdbc.SimpleJdbcCodegen
import org.postgresql.ds.PGSimpleDataSource
val pgDataSource = new PGSimpleDataSource()
pgDataSource.setURL(
"jdbc:postgresql://127.0.0.1:5432/quill_codegen_example?ssl=false",
)
pgDataSource.setUser("my_user")
pgDataSource.setPassword("my_password")
val gen = new SimpleJdbcCodegen(pgDataSource, "com.my.project") {
override def nameParser = SnakeCaseNames
}
gen.writeFiles("src/main/scala/com/my/project")
You can parse column and table names using either the SnakeCaseNames
or the and the LiteralNames
parser
which are used with the respective Quill Naming Strategies. They cannot be customized further with this code generator.
The following case case classes will be generated
// src/main/scala/com/my/project/public/Person.scala
package com.my.project.public
case class Person(id: Int, firstName: Option[String], lastName: Option[String], age: Int)
// src/main/scala/com/my/project/public/Address.scala
package com.my.project.public
case class Address(personFk: Int, street: Option[String], zip: Option[Int])
If you wish to generate schemas with custom table or column names, you need to use the ComposeableTraitsJdbcCodegen
in order to generate your schemas with querySchema
objects.
The ComposeableTraitsJdbcCodegen
enables more customized code generation.
It allows you to determine the tables to generate entity classes for,
their naming stragety, the types for columns in Scala,
and generates the necessary querySchema
object in order to map the fields.
Additionally, it generates a database-independent query schema trait which can be composed
with a Context
object of your choice.
Given the following schema:
create table public.Person (
id int primary key auto_increment,
first_name varchar(255),
last_name varchar(255),
age int not null
);
create table public.Address (
person_fk int not null,
street varchar(255),
zip int
);
Here is a example of how you could use the ComposeableTraitsJdbcCodegen
in order to replace the
first_name
and last_name
properties with first
and last
.
val gen = new ComposeableTraitsJdbcCodegen(
configOrDataSource,
packagePrefix = "com.my.project",
nestedTrait = true) {
override def nameParser: NameParser = CustomNames(
columnParser = col => col.columnName.toLowerCase.replace("_name", "")
)
override def packagingStrategy: PackagingStrategy = PackagingStrategy.ByPackageHeader.TablePerSchema(packagePrefix)
}
gen.writeFiles("src/main/scala/com/my/project")
The following schema should be generated as a result.
package com.my.project.public
case class Person(id: Int, first: Option[String], last: Option[String], age: Int)
case class Address(person_fk: Int, street: Option[String], zip: Option[Int])
// Note that by default this is formatted as "${namespace}Extensions"
trait PublicExtensions[Idiom <: io.getquill.idiom.Idiom, Naming <: io.getquill.NamingStrategy] {
this:io.getquill.context.Context[Idiom, Naming] =>
object PublicSchema {
object PersonDao {
def query = quote {
querySchema[Person](
"public.person",
_.id -> "id",
_.first -> "first_name",
_.last -> "last_name",
_.age -> "age"
)
}
}
object AddressDao {
def query = quote {
querySchema[Address](
"public.address",
_.person_fk -> "person_fk",
_.street -> "street",
_.zip -> "zip"
)
}
}
}
}
Later when declaring your Quill database context you can compose the context with
the PublicExtensions
like so:
object MyCustomContext extends SqlMirrorContext[H2Dialect, Literal](H2Dialect, Literal)
with PublicExtensions[H2Dialect, Literal]
ComposeableTraitsJdbcCodegen
is designed to be customizable via composition. This is a longer list of customizable strategies:
import io.getquill.codegen.jdbc.ComposeableTraitsJdbcCodegen
import io.getquill.codegen.model._
new ComposeableTraitsJdbcCodegen(...) {
// whether to generate Scala code for a table
override def filter(tc: RawSchema[JdbcTableMeta, JdbcColumnMeta]): Boolean = ???
// how to name table / columns in Scala
override def nameParser: NameParser = ???
// how to organize generated code into files / packages
override def packagingStrategy: PackagingStrategy = ???
// what JVM types (classes) to use for DB column
// e.g. one may want to translate Postgres `timestamptz` to java.time.OffsetDateTime
override def typer: Typer = ???
// what to do when `typer` above cannot find an appropriate type and returned None
override def unrecognizedTypeStrategy: UnrecognizedTypeStrategy = ???
}
Frequently in corporate databases, the same kind of table is duplicated across multiple schemas, databases, etc... for different business units. Typically, all the duplicates of the table will have nearly the same columns with just minor differences. Stereotyped code-generation aims to take the 'lowest common denominator' of all these schemas in order to produce a case class that can be used across all of them.
Examine the following H2 DDL:
create table Alpha.Person (
id int primary key auto_increment,
first_name varchar(255),
last_name varchar(255),
age int not null,
foo varchar(255),
num_trinkets int,
trinket_type varchar(255) not null
);
create table Bravo.Person (
id int primary key auto_increment,
first_name varchar(255),
bar varchar(255),
last_name varchar(255),
age int not null,
num_trinkets bigint not null,
trinket_type int not null
);
- Firstly, note that
Alpha.Person
andBravo.Person
have the exact same columns except forfoo
andbar
respectively. If a common table definitionPerson
is desired, these columns must be omitted. - Secondly, note that their columns
num_trinkets
andtrinket_type
have different types. If a common table definitionPerson
is desired, these columns must be expanded to the widest datatype of the two which is this casebigint
fornum_trinkets
andvarchar(255)
fortrinket_type
.
Both of the above actions are automatically performed by the ComposeableTraitsJdbcCodegen
(and SimpleJdbcCodegen
) automatically when multiple tables with the same name are detected or if you
rename them using a custom namingStrategy
causing this to happen.
Here is an example of how that is done:
val gen = new ComposeableTraitsJdbcCodegen(twoSchemaConfig, "com.my.project") {
override def namingStrategy: EntityNamingStrategy = CustomStrategy()
override val namespacer: Namespacer =
ts => if (ts.tableSchem.toLowerCase == "alpha" || ts.tableSchem.toLowerCase == "bravo") "common" else ts.tableSchem.toLowerCase
// Be sure to set the querySchemaNaming correctly so that the different
// querySchemas generated won't all be called '.query' in the common object (which would
// case an un-compile-able schema to be generated).
override def querySchemaNaming: QuerySchemaNaming = `[namespace][Table]`
}
gen.writeFiles("src/main/scala/com/my/project")
The following will then be generated. Note how numTrinkets
is a Long
(i.e. an SQL bigint
) type and trinketType
is a String
(i.e. an SQL varchar),
package com.my.project.common
case class Person(id: Int, firstName: Option[String], lastName: Option[String], age: Int, numTrinkets: Option[Long], trinketType: String)
trait CommonExtensions[Idiom <: io.getquill.idiom.Idiom, Naming <: io.getquill.NamingStrategy] {
this:io.getquill.context.Context[Idiom, Naming] =>
object PersonDao {
def alphaPerson = quote {
querySchema[Person](
"ALPHA.PERSON",
_.id -> "ID",
_.firstName -> "FIRST_NAME",
_.lastName -> "LAST_NAME",
_.age -> "AGE",
_.numTrinkets -> "NUM_TRINKETS",
_.trinketType -> "TRINKET_TYPE"
)
}
def bravoPerson = quote {
querySchema[Person](
"BRAVO.PERSON",
_.id -> "ID",
_.firstName -> "FIRST_NAME",
_.lastName -> "LAST_NAME",
_.age -> "AGE",
_.numTrinkets -> "NUM_TRINKETS",
_.trinketType -> "TRINKET_TYPE"
)
}
}
}
Later when declaring your quill database context you can compose the context with
the CommonExtensions
like so:
object MyCustomContext extends SqlMirrorContext[H2Dialect, Literal](H2Dialect, Literal)
with CommonExtensions[H2Dialect, Literal]
