""" SQLAlchemy-Utils provides way of automatically calculating aggregate values of related models and saving them to parent model. This solution is inspired by RoR counter cache, `counter_culture`_ and `stackoverflow reply by Michael Bayer`_. Why? ---- Many times you may have situations where you need to calculate dynamically some aggregate value for given model. Some simple examples include: - Number of products in a catalog - Average rating for movie - Latest forum post - Total price of orders for given customer Now all these aggregates can be elegantly implemented with SQLAlchemy column_property_ function. However when your data grows calculating these values on the fly might start to hurt the performance of your application. The more aggregates you are using the more performance penalty you get. This module provides way of calculating these values automatically and efficiently at the time of modification rather than on the fly. Features -------- * Automatically updates aggregate columns when aggregated values change * Supports aggregate values through arbitrary number levels of relations * Highly optimized: uses single query per transaction per aggregate column * Aggregated columns can be of any data type and use any selectable scalar expression .. _column_property: http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/latest/orm/mapper_config.html#using-column-property .. _counter_culture: https://github.com/magnusvk/counter_culture .. _stackoverflow reply by Michael Bayer: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13693872/ Simple aggregates ----------------- :: from sqlalchemy_utils import aggregated class Thread(Base): __tablename__ = 'thread' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) @aggregated('comments', sa.Column(sa.Integer)) def comment_count(self): return sa.func.count('1') comments = sa.orm.relationship( 'Comment', backref='thread' ) class Comment(Base): __tablename__ = 'comment' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) content = sa.Column(sa.UnicodeText) thread_id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, sa.ForeignKey(Thread.id)) thread = Thread(name=u'SQLAlchemy development') thread.comments.append(Comment(u'Going good!')) thread.comments.append(Comment(u'Great new features!')) session.add(thread) session.commit() thread.comment_count # 2 Custom aggregate expressions ---------------------------- Aggregate expression can be virtually any SQL expression not just a simple function taking one parameter. You can try things such as subqueries and different kinds of functions. In the following example we have a Catalog of products where each catalog knows the net worth of its products. :: from sqlalchemy_utils import aggregated class Catalog(Base): __tablename__ = 'catalog' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) @aggregated('products', sa.Column(sa.Integer)) def net_worth(self): return sa.func.sum(Product.price) products = sa.orm.relationship('Product') class Product(Base): __tablename__ = 'product' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) price = sa.Column(sa.Numeric) catalog_id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, sa.ForeignKey(Catalog.id)) Now the net_worth column of Catalog model will be automatically whenever: * A new product is added to the catalog * A product is deleted from the catalog * The price of catalog product is changed :: from decimal import Decimal product1 = Product(name='Some product', price=Decimal(1000)) product2 = Product(name='Some other product', price=Decimal(500)) catalog = Catalog( name=u'My first catalog', products=[ product1, product2 ] ) session.add(catalog) session.commit() session.refresh(catalog) catalog.net_worth # 1500 session.delete(product2) session.commit() session.refresh(catalog) catalog.net_worth # 1000 product1.price = 2000 session.commit() session.refresh(catalog) catalog.net_worth # 2000 Multiple aggregates per class ----------------------------- Sometimes you may need to define multiple aggregate values for same class. If you need to define lots of relationships pointing to same class, remember to define the relationships as viewonly when possible. :: from sqlalchemy_utils import aggregated class Customer(Base): __tablename__ = 'customer' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) @aggregated('orders', sa.Column(sa.Integer)) def orders_sum(self): return sa.func.sum(Order.price) @aggregated('invoiced_orders', sa.Column(sa.Integer)) def invoiced_orders_sum(self): return sa.func.sum(Order.price) orders = sa.orm.relationship('Order') invoiced_orders = sa.orm.relationship( 'Order', primaryjoin= 'sa.and_(Order.customer_id == Customer.id, Order.invoiced)', viewonly=True ) class Order(Base): __tablename__ = 'order' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) price = sa.Column(sa.Numeric) invoiced = sa.Column(sa.Boolean, default=False) customer_id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, sa.ForeignKey(Customer.id)) Many-to-Many aggregates ----------------------- Aggregate expressions also support many-to-many relationships. The usual use scenarios includes things such as: 1. Friend count of a user 2. Group count where given user belongs to :: user_group = sa.Table('user_group', Base.metadata, sa.Column('user_id', sa.Integer, sa.ForeignKey('user.id')), sa.Column('group_id', sa.Integer, sa.ForeignKey('group.id')) ) class User(Base): __tablename__ = 'user' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) @aggregated('groups', sa.Column(sa.Integer, default=0)) def group_count(self): return sa.func.count('1') groups = sa.orm.relationship( 'Group', backref='users', secondary=user_group ) class Group(Base): __tablename__ = 'group' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) user = User(name=u'John Matrix') user.groups = [Group(name=u'Group A'), Group(name=u'Group B')] session.add(user) session.commit() session.refresh(user) user.group_count # 2 Multi-level aggregates ---------------------- Aggregates can span across multiple relationships. In the following example each Catalog has a net_worth which is the sum of all products in all categories. :: from sqlalchemy_utils import aggregated class Catalog(Base): __tablename__ = 'catalog' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) @aggregated('categories.products', sa.Column(sa.Integer)) def net_worth(self): return sa.func.sum(Product.price) categories = sa.orm.relationship('Category') class Category(Base): __tablename__ = 'category' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) catalog_id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, sa.ForeignKey(Catalog.id)) products = sa.orm.relationship('Product') class Product(Base): __tablename__ = 'product' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) price = sa.Column(sa.Numeric) category_id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, sa.ForeignKey(Category.id)) Examples -------- Average movie rating ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ :: from sqlalchemy_utils import aggregated class Movie(Base): __tablename__ = 'movie' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) name = sa.Column(sa.Unicode(255)) @aggregated('ratings', sa.Column(sa.Numeric)) def avg_rating(self): return sa.func.avg(Rating.stars) ratings = sa.orm.relationship('Rating') class Rating(Base): __tablename__ = 'rating' id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, primary_key=True) stars = sa.Column(sa.Integer) movie_id = sa.Column(sa.Integer, sa.ForeignKey(Movie.id)) movie = Movie('Terminator 2') movie.ratings.append(Rating(stars=5)) movie.ratings.append(Rating(stars=4)) movie.ratings.append(Rating(stars=3)) session.add(movie) session.commit() movie.avg_rating #
