defmodule Ecto.Repo do
@moduledoc """
Defines a repository.
A repository maps to an underlying data store, controlled by the
adapter. For example, Ecto ships with a Postgres adapter that
stores data into a PostgreSQL database.
When used, the repository expects the `:otp_app` as option.
The `:otp_app` should point to an OTP application that has
the repository configuration. For example, the repository:
defmodule Repo do
use Ecto.Repo,
otp_app: :my_app,
adapter: Ecto.Adapters.Postgres
end
Could be configured with:
config :my_app, Repo,
database: "ecto_simple",
username: "postgres",
password: "postgres",
hostname: "localhost"
Most of the configuration that goes into the `config` is specific
to the adapter, so check `Ecto.Adapters.Postgres` documentation
for more information. However, some configuration is shared across
all adapters, they are:
* `:name`- The name of the Repo supervisor process
* `:priv` - the directory where to keep repository data, like
migrations, schema and more. Defaults to "priv/YOUR_REPO".
It must always point to a subdirectory inside the priv directory
* `:url` - an URL that specifies storage information. Read below
for more information
* `:log` - the log level used when logging the query with Elixir's
Logger. If false, disables logging for that repository.
Defaults to `:debug`
* `:pool_size` - the size of the pool used by the connection module.
Defaults to `10`
* `:telemetry_prefix` - we recommend adapters to publish events
using the `Telemetry` library. By default, the telemetry prefix
is based on the module name, so if your module is called
`MyApp.Repo`, the prefix will be `[:my_app, :repo]`. See the
"Telemetry Events" section to see which events we recommend
adapters to publish
## URLs
Repositories by default support URLs. For example, the configuration
above could be rewritten to:
config :my_app, Repo,
url: "ecto://postgres:postgres@localhost/ecto_simple"
The schema can be of any value. The path represents the database name
while options are simply merged in.
URL can include query parameters to override shared and adapter-specific
options `ssl`, `timeout`, `pool_size`:
config :my_app, Repo,
url: "ecto://postgres:postgres@localhost/ecto_simple?ssl=true&pool_size=10"
In case the URL needs to be dynamically configured, for example by
reading a system environment variable, such can be done via the
`c:init/2` repository callback:
def init(_type, config) do
{:ok, Keyword.put(config, :url, System.get_env("DATABASE_URL"))}
end
## Shared options
Almost all of the repository operations below accept the following
options:
* `:timeout` - The time in milliseconds to wait for the query call to
finish, `:infinity` will wait indefinitely (default: 15000);
* `:log` - When false, does not log the query
* `:telemetry_event` - The telemetry event name to dispatch the event under
Such cases will be explicitly documented as well as any extra option.
## Telemetry events
We recommend adapters to publish certain `Telemetry` events listed below.
Those events will use the `:telemetry_prefix` outlined above which defaults
to `[:my_app, :repo]`.
For instance, to receive all query events published by a repository called
`MyApp.Repo`, one would define a module:
defmodule MyApp.Telemetry do
def handle_event([:my_app, :repo, :query], time, metadata, config) do
IO.inspect binding()
end
end
and then attach this module to each event on your Application start callback:
:telemetry.attach("my-app-handler", [:my_app, :repo, :query], &MyApp.Telemetry.handle_event/4, %{})
Below we list all events developers should expect. All examples below consider
a repository named `MyApp.Repo`:
* `[:my_app, :repo, :query]` - should be invoked on every query send
to the adapter, including queries that are related to the transaction
management. The measurement will be the time necessary to run the query
including queue and encoding time. The metadata is a map where we recommend
developers to pass at least the same keys as found in the `Ecto.LogEntry`

A callback executed when the repo starts or when configuration is read.
The first argument is the context the callback is being invoked. If it
is called because the Repo supervisor is starting, it will be `:supervisor`.
It will be `:runtime` if it is called for reading configuration without
actually starting a process.
The second argument is the repository configuration as stored in the
application environment. It must return `{:ok, keyword}` with the updated
list of configuration or `:ignore` (only in the `:supervisor` case).

Checks out a connection for the duration of the function.
It returns the result of the function. This is useful when
you need to perform multiple operations against the repository
in a row and you want to avoid checking out the connection
multiple times.
`checkout/2` and `transaction/2` can be combined and nested
multiple times. If `checkout/2` is called inside the function
of another `checkout/2` call, the function is simply executed,
without checking out a new connection.

Loads `data` into a struct or a map.
The first argument can be a a schema module, or a
map (of types) and determines the return value:
a struct or a map, respectively.
The second argument `data` specifies fields and values that are to be loaded.
It can be a map, a keyword list, or a `{fields, values}` tuple.
Fields can be atoms or strings.
Fields that are not present in the schema (or `types` map) are ignored.
If any of the values has invalid type, an error is raised.
## Examples
iex> MyRepo.load(User, %{name: "Alice", age: 25})
%User{name: "Alice", age: 25}
iex> MyRepo.load(User, [name: "Alice", age: 25])

`data` can also take form of `{fields, values}`:
iex> MyRepo.load(User, {[:name, :age], ["Alice", 25]})

iex> types = %{name: :string, age: :integer}
iex> MyRepo.load(types, %{name: "Alice", age: 25})
%{name: "Alice", age: 25}
This function is especially useful when parsing raw query results:

## Options
Besides the "Shared options" section at the module documentation,
it accepts:
* `:force` - By default, Ecto won't preload associations that

association will be discarded and reloaded.
* `:in_parallel` - If the preloads must be done in parallel. It can
only be performed when we have more than one preload and the

will use the same prefix as the one in the given collection. This
option allows the prefix to be changed.

@doc """
Inserts all entries into the repository.
It expects a schema module (`MyApp.User`) or a source (`"users"`) or
both (`{"users", MyApp.User}`) as the first argument. The second
argument is a list of entries to be inserted, either as keyword
lists or as maps. The keys of the entries are the field names as
atoms and the value should be the respective value for the field
type or, optionally, an `Ecto.Query` that returns a single entry
with a single value.
It returns a tuple containing the number of entries
and any returned result as second element. If the database
does not support RETURNING in INSERT statements or no
return result was selected, the second element will be `nil`.
When a schema module is given, the entries given will be properly dumped
before being sent to the database. If the schema contains an
autogenerated ID field, it will be handled either at the adapter
or the storage layer. However any other autogenerated value, like
timestamps, won't be autogenerated when using `c:insert_all/3`.
This is by design as this function aims to be a more direct way
to insert data into the database without the conveniences of
`c:insert/2`. This is also consistent with `c:update_all/3` that
does not handle timestamps as well.
It is also not possible to use `insert_all` to insert across multiple
tables, therefore associations are not supported.
If a source is given, without a schema module, the given fields are passed
as is to the adapter.
## Options
* `:returning` - selects which fields to return. When `true`,
returns all fields in the given schema. May be a list of
fields, where a struct is still returned but only with the
given fields. Or `false`, where nothing is returned (the default).
This option is not supported by all databases.
* `:prefix` - The prefix to run the query on (such as the schema path
in Postgres or the database in MySQL).
* `:on_conflict` - It may be one of `:raise` (the default), `:nothing`,
`:replace_all`, `:replace_all_except_primary_key`, `{:replace, fields}`,
a keyword list of update instructions, `{:replace, fields}` or an `Ecto.Query`
query for updates. See the "Upserts" section for more information.
* `:conflict_target` - A list of column names to verify for conflicts.
It is expected those columns to have unique indexes on them that may conflict.
If none is specified, the conflict target is left up to the database.
It may also be `{:constraint, constraint_name_as_atom}` in databases
that support the "ON CONSTRAINT" expression, such as PostgreSQL, or
`{:unsafe_fragment, binary_fragment}` to pass any expression to the
database without any sanitization, such as
`ON CONFLICT (coalesce(firstname, ""), coalesce(lastname, ""))`.
See the "Shared options" section at the module documentation for
remaining options.
## Examples
MyRepo.insert_all(Post, [[title: "My first post"], [title: "My second post"]])
MyRepo.insert_all(Post, [%{title: "My first post"}, %{title: "My second post"}])
## Upserts
`c:insert_all/3` provides upserts (update or inserts) via the `:on_conflict`
option. The `:on_conflict` option supports the following values:
* `:raise` - raises if there is a conflicting primary key or unique index
* `:nothing` - ignores the error in case of conflicts
* `:replace_all` - replace all values on the existing row by the new entry,
including values not sent explicitly by Ecto, such as database defaults.
This option requires a schema
* `:replace_all_except_primary_key` - same as above except primary keys are
not replaced. This option requires a schema
* `{:replace, fields}` - replace only specific columns. This option requires
conflict_target
* a keyword list of update instructions - such as the one given to
`c:update_all/3`, for example: `[set: [title: "new title"]]`
* an `Ecto.Query` that will act as an `UPDATE` statement, such as the
one given to `c:update_all/3`
Upserts map to "ON CONFLICT" on databases like Postgres and "ON DUPLICATE KEY"
on databases such as MySQL.
## Return values
By default, both Postgres and MySQL return the amount of entries
inserted on `c:insert_all/3`. However, when the `:on_conflict` option
is specified, Postgres will only return a row if it was affected
while MySQL returns at least the number of entries attempted.
For example, if `:on_conflict` is set to `:nothing`, Postgres will
return 0 if no new entry was added while MySQL will still return
the amount of entries attempted to be inserted, even if no entry
was added. Even worse, if `:on_conflict` is query, MySQL will return
the number of attempted entries plus the number of entries modified
by the UPDATE query.

* `:stale_error_field` - The field where stale errors will be added in
the returning changeset. This option can be used to avoid raising
`Ecto.StaleEntryError`.
* `:stale_error_message` - The message to add to the configured
`:stale_error_field` when stale errors happen, defaults to "is stale".
See the "Shared options" section at the module documentation.
## Examples
A typical example is calling `MyRepo.insert/1` with a struct
and acting on the return value:
case MyRepo.insert %Post{title: "Ecto is great"} do
{:ok, struct} -> # Inserted with success
{:error, changeset} -> # Something went wrong
end
## Upserts
`c:insert/2` provides upserts (update or inserts) via the `:on_conflict`
option. The `:on_conflict` option supports the following values:
* `:raise` - raises if there is a conflicting primary key or unique index
* `:nothing` - ignores the error in case of conflicts
* `:replace_all` - replace all values on the existing row with the values
in the schema/changeset, including autogenerated fields such as `inserted_at`
and `updated_at`
* `:replace_all_except_primary_key` - same as above except primary keys are
not replaced
* `{:replace, fields}` - replace only specific columns. This option requires
conflict_target
* a keyword list of update instructions - such as the one given to
`c:update_all/3`, for example: `[set: [title: "new title"]]`
* an `Ecto.Query` that will act as an `UPDATE` statement, such as the
one given to `c:update_all/3`. If the struct cannot be found, `Ecto.StaleEntryError`
will be raised.
Upserts map to "ON CONFLICT" on databases like Postgres and "ON DUPLICATE KEY"
on databases such as MySQL.
As an example, imagine `:title` is marked as a unique column in
the database:
{:ok, inserted} = MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"})
Now we can insert with the same title but do nothing on conflicts:
{:ok, ignored} = MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"}, on_conflict: :nothing)
assert ignored.id == nil
Because we used `on_conflict: :nothing`, instead of getting an error,
we got `{:ok, struct}`. However the returned struct does not reflect
the data in the database. One possible mechanism to detect if an
insert or nothing happened in case of `on_conflict: :nothing` is by
checking the `id` field. `id` will be nil if the field is autogenerated
by the database and no insert happened.
For actual upserts, where an insert or update may happen, the situation
is slightly more complex, as the database does not actually inform us
if an insert or update happened. Let's insert a post with the same title
but use a query to update the body column in case of conflicts:
# In Postgres (it requires the conflict target for updates):
on_conflict = [set: [body: "updated"]]
{:ok, updated} = MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"},
on_conflict: on_conflict, conflict_target: :title)
# In MySQL (conflict target is not supported):
on_conflict = [set: [title: "updated"]]
{:ok, updated} = MyRepo.insert(%Post{id: inserted.id, title: "updated"},
on_conflict: on_conflict)
In the examples above, even though it returned `:ok`, we do not know
if we inserted new data or if we updated only the `:on_conflict` fields.
In case an update happened, the data in the struct most likely does
not match the data in the database. For example, autogenerated fields
such as `inserted_at` will point to now rather than the time the
struct was actually inserted.
If you need to guarantee the data in the returned struct mirrors the
database, you have three options:
* Use `on_conflict: :replace_all`, although that will replace all
fields in the database with the ones in the struct/changeset,
including autogenerated fields such as `insert_at` and `updated_at`:
MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"},
on_conflict: :replace_all, conflict_target: :title)
* Specify `read_after_writes: true` in your schema for choosing
fields that are read from the database after every operation.
Or pass `returning: true` to `insert` to read all fields back:
MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"}, returning: true,
on_conflict: on_conflict, conflict_target: :title)
* Alternatively, read the data again from the database in a separate
query. This option requires the primary key to be generated by the
database:
{:ok, updated} = MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"}, on_conflict: on_conflict)
Repo.get(Post, updated.id)
Because of the inability to know if the struct is up to date or not,
using associations with the `:on_conflict` option is not recommended.
For instance, Ecto may even trigger constraint violations when associations
are used with `on_conflict: :nothing`, as no ID will be available in
the case the record already exists, and it is not possible for Ecto to
detect such cases reliably.

@doc """
Updates a changeset using its primary key.
A changeset is required as it is the only mechanism for
tracking dirty changes. Only the fields present in the `changes` part
of the changeset are sent to the database. Any other, in-memory
changes done to the schema are ignored.
If the struct has no primary key, `Ecto.NoPrimaryKeyFieldError`
will be raised.
If the struct cannot be found, `Ecto.StaleEntryError` will be raised.
It returns `{:ok, struct}` if the struct has been successfully
updated or `{:error, changeset}` if there was a validation
or a known constraint error.
## Options
Besides the "Shared options" section at the module documentation,
it accepts:
* `:force` - By default, if there are no changes in the changeset,
`c:update/2` is a no-op. By setting this option to true, update
callbacks will always be executed, even if there are no changes
(including timestamps).
* `:prefix` - The prefix to run the query on (such as the schema path
in Postgres or the database in MySQL). This overrides the prefix set
in the struct.
* `:stale_error_field` - The field where stale errors will be added in
the returning changeset. This option can be used to avoid raising
`Ecto.StaleEntryError`.
* `:stale_error_message` - The message to add to the configured
`:stale_error_field` when stale errors happen, defaults to "is stale".
## Example

Please note that for this to work, you will have to load existing structs from
the database. So even if the struct exists, this won't work:

## Ecto.Adapter.Transaction
@optional_callbacks transaction: 2, in_transaction?: 0, rollback: 1
@doc """
Runs the given function or `Ecto.Multi` inside a transaction.
## Use with function
If an unhandled error occurs the transaction will be rolled back
and the error will bubble up from the transaction function.
If no error occurred the transaction will be committed when the
function returns. A transaction can be explicitly rolled back
by calling `c:rollback/1`, this will immediately leave the function
and return the value given to `rollback` as `{:error, value}`.
A successful transaction returns the value returned by the function
wrapped in a tuple as `{:ok, value}`.
If `c:transaction/2` is called inside another transaction, the function
is simply executed, without wrapping the new transaction call in any
way. If there is an error in the inner transaction and the error is
rescued, or the inner transaction is rolled back, the whole outer
transaction is marked as tainted, guaranteeing nothing will be committed.
## Use with Ecto.Multi
Besides functions transaction can be used with an Ecto.Multi struct.
Transaction will be started, all operations applied and in case of
success committed returning `{:ok, changes}`. In case of any errors
the transaction will be rolled back and
`{:error, failed_operation, failed_value, changes_so_far}` will be
returned.
You can read more about using transactions with `Ecto.Multi` as well as
see some examples in the `Ecto.Multi` documentation.
