the tree can now run the full suite of tests out of the box.
- Migrated most @supported to @fails_on, @fails_on_everything_but, or (last
resort) @unsupported. @fails_on revealed a slew of bogus test skippage,
which was corrected.
- Added @fails_on_everything_but. Yes, the first usage *was*
"fails_on_everything_but('postgres')". How did you guess!
- Migrated @supported in dialect/* to the new test-class attribute __only_on__.
- Test classes can also have __unsupported_on__ and __excluded_on__.
"unique identifier" mechanisms as everything else. This doesn't affect
user code, except any code that might have been hardcoded against the generated
names. Generated bind params now have the form "<paramname>_<num>",
whereas before only the second bind of the same name would have this form.
- bindparam() objects themselves can be used as keys for execute(), i.e.
statement.execute({bind1:'foo', bind2:'bar'})
- changed the various "literal" generation functions to use an anonymous
bind parameter. not much changes here except their labels now look
like ":param_1", ":param_2" instead of ":literal"
- from_obj keyword argument to select() can be a scalar or a list.
when its an alias of a Table; added some test coverage for one particular
case from the doctests
- fixed "having" example in doctests, updated eager load example
- removed ClauseParameters object; compiled.params returns a regular dictionary
now, as well as result.last_inserted_params()/last_updated_params().
- various code trimming, method removals.
in result-set processing; nested selects which contain the same column
names don't affect the result or conflict with result-column metadata.
- query.get() and related functions (like many-to-one lazyloading)
use compile-time-aliased bind parameter names, to prevent
name conflicts with bind parameters that already exist in the
mapped selectable.
dictionary of QueryContext is now passed to SelectionContext inside
of Query.instances(), allowing messages to be passed between the two stages.
- removed the recent "exact match" behavior of Alias objects, they're back to
their usual behavior.
- tightened up the relationship between the Query's generation
of "eager load" aliases, and Query.instances() which actually grabs the
eagerly loaded rows. If the aliases were not specifically generated for
that statement by EagerLoader, the EagerLoader will not take effect
when the rows are fetched. This prevents columns from being grabbed accidentally
as being part of an eager load when they were not meant for such, which can happen
with textual SQL as well as some inheritance situations. It's particularly important
since the "anonymous aliasing" of columns uses simple integer counts now to generate
labels.
to the label used in the generated statement. This is so searching for columns in a
result row which match aliases won't accidentally match non-aliased columns.
fixes errors which can arise in eager loading scenarios.
"column_keys". the parameters sent to execute() only interact with the
insert/update statement compilation process in terms of the column names
present but not the values for those columns.
produces more consistent execute/executemany behavior, simplifies things a
bit internally.
- also omitted all modules and classes that aren't expicitly public
- omitted 'Smallinteger' (small i), but it's still in schema
- omitted NullType-related items from types.__all__
- patched up a few tests to use sql.table and sql.column, other related.
2. compiler names changed to be less verbose, unused classes removed.
3. Methods on Dialect which return compilers, schema generators, identifier preparers
have changed to direct class references, typically on the Dialect class itself
or optionally as attributes on an individual Dialect instance if conditional behavior is needed.
This takes away the need for Dialect subclasses to know how to instantiate these
objects, and also reduces method overhead by one call for each one.
4. as a result of 3., some internal signatures have changed for things like compiler() (now statement_compiler()), preparer(), etc., mostly in that the dialect needs to be passed explicitly as the first argument (since they are just class references now). The compiler() method on Engine and Connection is now also named statement_compiler(), but as before does not take the dialect as an argument.
5. changed _process_row function on RowProxy to be a class reference, cuts out 50K method calls from insertspeed.py
- added support for reflection of domains [ticket:570]
- types which are missing during reflection resolve to Null type
instead of raising an error
- moved reflection/types/query unit tests specific to postgres to new
postgres unittest module
[ticket:620]
- calling <column>.in_() (i.e. with no arguments) will return
"CASE WHEN (<column> IS NULL) THEN NULL ELSE 0 END = 1)", so that
NULL or False is returned in all cases, rather than throwing an error
[ticket:545]
sized to the primary key constraint of the table. values that were
"passively" created and not available via cursor.lastrowid will be None.
- sqlite: string PK column inserts dont get overwritten with OID [ticket:603]
uses operator precedence to more intelligently apply parenthesis
to clauses, provides cleaner nesting of clauses (doesnt mutate
clauses placed in other clauses, i.e. no 'parens' flag)
- added 'modifier' keyword, works like func.<foo> except does not
add parenthesis. e.g. select([modifier.DISTINCT(...)]) etc.
