(pre 8.1) versions of Postgresql, and potentially other PG engines
such as Redshift (assuming Redshift reports the version as < 8.1).
The query for "indexes" as well as "primary keys" relies upon inspecting
a so-called "int2vector" datatype, which refuses to coerce to an array
prior to 8.1 causing failures regarding the "ANY()" operator used
in the query. Extensive googling has located the very hacky, but
recommended-by-PG-core-developer query to use when PG version < 8.1
is in use, so index and primary key constraint reflection now work
on these versions.
to support dialect-level reflection options for all :class:`.Table`
objects reflected.
- Added a new dialect-level argument ``postgresql_ignore_search_path``;
this argument is accepted by both the :class:`.Table` constructor
as well as by the :meth:`.MetaData.reflect` method. When in use
against Postgresql, a foreign-key referenced table which specifies
a remote schema name will retain that schema name even if the name
is present in the ``search_path``; the default behavior since 0.7.3
has been that schemas present in ``search_path`` would not be copied
to reflected :class:`.ForeignKey` objects. The documentation has been
updated to describe in detail the behavior of the ``pg_get_constraintdef()``
function and how the ``postgresql_ignore_search_path`` feature essentially
determines if we will honor the schema qualification reported by
this function or not. [ticket:2922]
the indexing. this is for more natural operation.
- also add cast() to the JSON expression to complement astext. This integrates
the CAST call which will be needed frequently. Part of [ticket:2687].
- it's a little unclear how more advanced unicode attribute-access is going to go,
some quick attempts at testing yielded strange error messages from psycopg2.
- do other cross linking as mentioned in [ticket:2687].
- add support for "standalone" JSON objects; this involves getting CAST
to upgrade the given type of a bound parameter. should add a core-only test
for this.
- add tests for "standalone" json round trips both with and without unicode
- add mechanism by which we remove psycopg2's "json" handler in order to get
the effect of using our non-native result handlers
- Fixed reference to HSTORE
- Corrected spelling of SQLAlchemy
sqlalchemy/dialects/postgresql/psycopg2:
- Added psycopg2 specific wrapper type for JSON which uses inherent json deserialization facilities
- Added code to detect and utilize the JSON wrapper if psycopg2 >= 2.5
test/dialect/postgresql/test_types:
- removed reference to use_native_hstore
- Added import references to JSON class
sqlalchemy/dialects/postgresql/base.py:
- Added visitor method for JSON class
sqlalchemy/dialects/postgresql/pgjson (new):
- JSON class, supports automatic serialization and deserialization of json data, as well as basic json operators.
- move out tests, dialect specific out of compiler, compiler tests use new API,
legacy API tests in test_selecatble
- add support for adaptation of ForUpdateArg, alias support in compilers
mssql to ensure that any literal SQL expression values are
rendered directly as literals, instead of as bound parameters,
within a CREATE INDEX statement. [ticket:2742]
- don't need expression_as_ddl(); literal_binds and include_table
take care of this functionality.
actual mock objects from the mock library. I'd like to use mock
for new tests so we might as well use it in obvious places.
- use unittest.mock in py3.3
- changelog
- add a note to README.unittests
- add tests_require in setup.py
- have tests import from sqlalchemy.testing.mock
- apply usage of mock to one of the event tests. we can be using
this approach all over the place.
Postgresql dialect to no longer inject a hardcoded ``::timestamp``
or similar cast into the given expression, as this interfered
with types such as timezone-aware datetimes, but also
does not appear to be at all necessary with modern versions
of psycopg2. Also in 0.8.2.
