PostgreSQL extended query API wrapper


To use this package, run the following command in your project's root directory:

Manual usage
Put the following dependency into your project's dependences section:

DPEQ - native PSQL extended query protocol client for D programming language

DPEQ is a source library aimed at providing low-level communication interface, with minimal abstraction and encapsulation. PSQL's native interface is very performant, and it's a shame there is currently no native solution for D.

You should probably get yourself familiar with it, if you want to use it. https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.5/static/protocol.html https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.5/static/protocol-flow.html https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.5/static/protocol-message-formats.html

Many thanks to authors of https://github.com/teamhackback/hb-ddb and https://github.com/pszturmaj/ddb, wich gave this library some inspiration.

Source structure

  • source/dpeq/command.d - medium-level interfaces to connection. You can find example PreparedStatement and Portal class implementations there. getQueryResults function from this module is bread and butter for response demarshalling. blockToVariants and blockToTuples are example demarshalling implementations that allow you to lazily work with QueryResult's.
  • source/dpeq/connection.d - buffered message streamer PSQLConnection is used to send and recieve messages. It's a class template with customazable socket type (so you can easily use it with vibe-d) and logging functions.
  • source/dpeq/constants.d - sorry ass header file. It's limited content is caused by little time put into it. I didn't need any types besides integers, bool and string. Pull requests regarding type support are more than welcome.
  • source/dpeq/exceptions.d - pretty straightforward.
  • source/dpeq/marshalling.d - templated (de)marshalling code, used throughout dpeq. This is the place to research for ways to inject custom type behaviour.
  • source/dpeq/schema.d - structures that describe query results are put here.

How to use vibe-d sockets

Wrap them into class and pass it as a template parameter to PSQLConnection.

private final class SocketT
{
    TCPConnection m_con;

    this(string host, ushort port)
    {
        m_con = connectTCP(host, port);
    }

    void close()
    {
        m_con.close();
    }

    auto send(const(ubyte)[] buf)
    {
        try
        {
            return m_con.write(buf, IOMode.all);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            throw new PsqlSocketException(e.msg);
        }
    }

    auto receive(ubyte[] buf)
    {
        try
        {
            return m_con.read(buf, IOMode.all);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            throw new PsqlSocketException(e.msg);
        }
    }
}

What types are currently handled by default marshaller template?

SMALLINT, INT, BIGINT, BOOLEAN, VARCHAR/TEXT/CHARACTER, and their Nullable counterparts. Please send pull requests for new types! To quickly hack them in and test without modifying dpeq, DefaultFieldMarshaller, VariantConverter and most marshalling-related templates are extensible, so you can modify behaviour purely from client code.

Authrization mechanisms

Only plaintext password supported currently. And it is not tested =).

Examples

Simple examples can be found in tests folder. Otherwise, I recommend investing time into learning underlying protocol and looking at the source code.

Login

auto con = new PSQLConnection!(StdSocket, writefln, writefln)(
    BackendParams("localhost", cast(ushort)5432, "postgres", "r00tme", "dbname"));

Transactions

void transaction_example()
{
    auto con = new PSQLConnection!(StdSocket, writefln, writefln)(
        BackendParams("localhost", cast(ushort)5432, "postgres", "r00tme", "dbname"));
    con.postSimpleQuery("BEGIN;");
    con.flush();
    auto res = con.getQueryResults();
    writeln("Got result ", res);
    assert(res.commandsComplete == 1);
    con.postSimpleQuery("COMMIT;");
    con.flush();
    auto res2 = con.getQueryResults();
    writeln("Got result ", res2);
    assert(res2.commandsComplete == 1);
    con.terminate();
}

Simple query select

void select_example()
{
    auto con = new PSQLConnection!(StdSocket, writefln, writefln)(
        BackendParams("localhost", cast(ushort)5432, "postgres", "r00tme", "drova"));
    con.postSimpleQuery("SELECT * FROM sessions LIMIT 2;");
    con.flush();
    auto res = con.getQueryResults();
    writeln("Got result ", res);

    // rows is array of imput ranges of lazily-demarshalled variants
    auto rows = blockToVariants(res.blocks[0]);
    foreach (row; rows)
    {
        writeln("iterating over data row");
        foreach (field; row)
        {
            writeln("iterating over data field ", field);
        }
    }
    con.terminate();
}

Extended query select


import std.meta;
import std.stdio;

template FormatCodeFromFieldSpec(FieldSpec spec)
{
    enum FormatCodeFromFieldSpec =
        DefaultFieldMarshaller!(spec).formatCode;
}

enum FieldSpec[] SessionSpec = [
    FieldSpec(StaticPgTypes.BIGINT, false),
    FieldSpec(StaticPgTypes.VARCHAR, false),
    FieldSpec(StaticPgTypes.VARCHAR, false),

];

enum FormatCode[] fullRowFormats =
    [staticMap!(FormatCodeFromFieldSpec, aliasSeqOf!SessionSpec)];

void bind_example()
{
    auto con = new PSQLConnection!(StdSocket, writefln, writefln)(
        BackendParams("localhost", cast(ushort)5432, "postgres", "r00tme", "drova"));
    auto ps = new PreparedStatement!(typeof(con))
        (con, "SELECT * FROM sessions LIMIT $1;", null, true);
    auto portal = new Portal!(typeof(con))(ps, 1, true);
    ps.postParseMessage();
    portal.bind!([FieldSpec(StaticPgTypes.BIGINT, false)], fullRowFormats)(3);
    portal.execute(false);
    con.sync();
    con.flush();
    ps.ensureParseComplete();   // not mandatory
    writefln("Parse complete");
    portal.ensureBindComplete(); // you can skip this too
    writefln("Bind complete");

    // this is the call that matters and should be dealt with care
    auto res = con.getQueryResults();
    auto rows = blockToTuples!SessionSpec(res.blocks[0].dataRows);

    // lazy demarshalling of tuples from byte buffers allocated for messages
    foreach (row; rows)
    {
        writeln("iterating over data row");
        writeln("row = ", row);  // prints Tuple!(long, string... value
    }

    portal.postCloseMessage();
    ps.postCloseMessage();
    con.sync();
    con.terminate();
}

Perfomrance

Simple tests on localhost PSQL in docker. Vibe-d http server, 4 threads, slightly hacked eventcore and vibe-core. 64 concurrent ab workers. All I want to say, if you're careful enough, you should be able to pass some good data streams. But it remains to be broken.
