module Sequel::Model::Associations::DatasetMethods

Eager loading makes it so that you can load all associated records for a set of objects in a single query, instead of a separate query for each object.

Two separate implementations are provided. eager should be used most of the time, as it loads associated records using one query per association. However, it does not allow you the ability to filter or order based on columns in associated tables. eager_graph loads all records in a single query using JOINs, allowing you to filter or order based on columns in associated tables. However, eager_graph is usually slower than eager, especially if multiple one_to_many or many_to_many associations are joined.

You can cascade the eager loading (loading associations on associated objects) with no limit to the depth of the cascades. You do this by passing a hash to eager or eager_graph with the keys being associations of the current model and values being associations of the model associated with the current model via the key.

The arguments can be symbols or hashes with symbol keys (for cascaded eager loading). Examples:

Album.eager(:artist).all
Album.eager_graph(:artist).all
Album.eager(:artist, :genre).all
Album.eager_graph(:artist, :genre).all
Album.eager(:artist).eager(:genre).all
Album.eager_graph(:artist).eager_graph(:genre).all
Artist.eager(albums: :tracks).all
Artist.eager_graph(albums: :tracks).all
Artist.eager(albums: {tracks: :genre}).all
Artist.eager_graph(albums: {tracks: :genre}).all

You can also pass a callback as a hash value in order to customize the dataset being eager loaded at query time, analogous to the way the :eager_block association option allows you to customize it at association definition time. For example, if you wanted artists with their albums since 1990:

Artist.eager(albums: proc{|ds| ds.where{year > 1990}})

Or if you needed albums and their artist’s name only, using a single query:

Albums.eager_graph(artist: proc{|ds| ds.select(:name)})

To cascade eager loading while using a callback, you substitute the cascaded associations with a single entry hash that has the proc callback as the key and the cascaded associations as the value. This will load artists with their albums since 1990, and also the tracks on those albums and the genre for those tracks:

Artist.eager(albums: {proc{|ds| ds.where{year > 1990}}=>{tracks: :genre}})

association_join(*associations) click to toggle source

Adds one or more INNER JOINs to the existing dataset using the keys and conditions specified by the given association(s). Take the same arguments as eager_graph, and operates similarly, but only adds the joins as opposed to making the other changes (such as adding selected columns and setting up eager loading).

The following methods also exist for specifying a different type of JOIN:

association_full_join

FULL JOIN

association_inner_join

INNER JOIN

association_left_join

LEFT JOIN

association_right_join

RIGHT JOIN

Examples:

# For each album, association_join load the artist
Album.association_join(:artist).all
# SELECT *
# FROM albums
# INNER JOIN artists AS artist ON (artists.id = albums.artist_id)

# For each album, association_join load the artist, using a specified alias

complex_expression_sql_append(sql, op, args) click to toggle source

If the expression is in the form x = y where y is a Sequel::Model instance, array of Sequel::Model instances, or a Sequel::Model dataset, assume x is an association symbol and look up the association reflection via the dataset’s model. From there, return the appropriate SQL based on the type of association and the values of the foreign/primary keys of y. For most association types, this is a simple transformation, but for many_to_many associations this creates a subquery to the join table.

eager(*associations) click to toggle source

The preferred eager loading method. Loads all associated records using one query for each association.

The basic idea for how it works is that the dataset is first loaded normally. Then it goes through all associations that have been specified via eager. It loads each of those associations separately, then associates them back to the original dataset via primary/foreign keys. Due to the necessity of all objects being present, you need to use all to use eager loading, as it can’t work with each.

This implementation avoids the complexity of extracting an object graph out of a single dataset, by building the object graph out of multiple datasets, one for each association. By using a separate dataset for each association, it avoids problems such as aliasing conflicts and creating cartesian product result sets if multiple one_to_many or many_to_many eager associations are requested.

One limitation of using this method is that you cannot filter the current dataset based on values of columns in an associated table, since the associations are loaded in separate queries. To do that you need to load all associations in the same query, and extract an object graph from the results of that query. If you need to filter based on columns in associated tables, look at eager_graph or join the tables you need to filter on manually.

Each association’s order, if defined, is respected. If the association uses a block or has an :eager_block argument, it is used.

To modify the associated dataset that will be used for the eager load, you should use a hash for the association, with the key being the association name symbol, and the value being a callable object that is called with the associated dataset and should return a modified dataset. If that association also has dependent associations, instead of a callable object, use a hash with the callable object being the key, and the dependent association(s) as the value.

Examples:

# For each album, eager load the artist
Album.eager(:artist).all
# SELECT * FROM albums
# SELECT * FROM artists WHERE (id IN (...))

# For each album, eager load the artist and genre
Album.eager(:artist, :genre).all
Album.eager(:artist).eager(:genre).all
# SELECT * FROM albums
# SELECT * FROM artists WHERE (id IN (...))
# SELECT * FROM genres WHERE (id IN (...))

# For each artist, eager load albums and tracks for each album
Artist.eager(albums: :tracks).all
# SELECT * FROM artists
# SELECT * FROM albums WHERE (artist_id IN (...))
# SELECT * FROM tracks WHERE (album_id IN (...))

# For each artist, eager load albums, tracks for each album, and genre for each track
Artist.eager(albums: {tracks: :genre}).all
# SELECT * FROM artists
# SELECT * FROM albums WHERE (artist_id IN (...))
# SELECT * FROM tracks WHERE (album_id IN (...))
# SELECT * FROM genre WHERE (id IN (...))

# For each artist, eager load albums with year > 1990
Artist.eager(albums: proc{|ds| ds.where{year > 1990}}).all
# SELECT * FROM artists
# SELECT * FROM albums WHERE ((year > 1990) AND (artist_id IN (...)))

# For each artist, eager load albums and tracks 1-10 for each album
Artist.eager(albums: {tracks: proc{|ds| ds.where(number: 1..10)}}).all
# SELECT * FROM artists
# SELECT * FROM albums WHERE (artist_id IN (...))
# SELECT * FROM tracks WHERE ((number >= 1) AND (number <= 10) AND (album_id IN (...)))

# For each artist, eager load albums with year > 1990, and tracks for those albums
Artist.eager(albums: {proc{|ds| ds.where{year > 1990}}=>:tracks}).all
# SELECT * FROM artists

eager_graph(*associations) click to toggle source

The secondary eager loading method. Loads all associations in a single query. This method should only be used if you need to filter or order based on columns in associated tables, or if you have done comparative benchmarking and determined it is faster.

This method uses Dataset#graph to create appropriate aliases for columns in all the tables. Then it uses the graph’s metadata to build the associations from the single hash, and finally replaces the array of hashes with an array model objects inside all.

Be very careful when using this with multiple one_to_many or many_to_many associations, as you can create large cartesian products. If you must graph multiple one_to_many and many_to_many associations, make sure your filters are narrow if the datasets are large.

Each association’s order, if defined, is respected. eager_graph probably won’t work correctly on a limited dataset, unless you are only graphing many_to_one, one_to_one, and one_through_one associations.

Does not use the block defined for the association, since it does a single query for all objects. You can use the :graph_* association options to modify the SQL query.

Like eager, you need to call all on the dataset for the eager loading to work. If you just call each, it will yield plain hashes, each containing all columns from all the tables.

To modify the associated dataset that will be joined to the current dataset, you should use a hash for the association, with the key being the association name symbol, and the value being a callable object that is called with the associated dataset and should return a modified dataset. If that association also has dependent associations, instead of a callable object, use a hash with the callable object being the key, and the dependent association(s) as the value.

You can specify an custom alias and/or join type on a per-association basis by providing an Sequel::SQL::AliasedExpression object instead of an a Symbol for the association name.

You cannot mix calls to eager_graph and graph on the same dataset.

Examples:

# For each album, eager_graph load the artist
Album.eager_graph(:artist).all
# SELECT ...
# FROM albums
# LEFT OUTER JOIN artists AS artist ON (artists.id = albums.artist_id)

# For each album, eager_graph load the artist, using a specified alias

Run eager_graph with some options specific to just this call. Unlike eager_graph, this takes the associations as a single argument instead of multiple arguments.

Options:

:join_type

Override the join type specified in the association

:limit_strategy

Use a strategy for handling limits on associations. Appropriate :limit_strategy values are:

true

Pick the most appropriate based on what the database supports

:distinct_on

Force use of DISTINCT ON stategy (*_one associations only)

:correlated_subquery

Force use of correlated subquery strategy (one_to_* associations only)

:window_function

Force use of window function strategy

:ruby

Don’t modify the SQL, implement limits/offsets with array slicing

This can also be a hash with association name symbol keys and one of the above values, to use different strategies per association.

The default is the :ruby strategy. Choosing a different strategy can make your code significantly slower in some cases (perhaps even the majority of cases), so you should only use this if you have benchmarked that it is faster for your use cases.
