sql_insight/normalizer.rs
1//! SQL normalization — rewrite the AST so structurally identical
2//! queries hash to the same string. See [`normalize`] as the entry
3//! point.
4//!
5//! The base pass replaces every literal `Value` with a `?`
6//! placeholder, so queries that differ only in their parameter
7//! values collapse to the same string.
8//!
9//! "Every literal" is meant literally: it includes `Value`s in
10//! structurally significant positions, not just bound-parameter slots.
11//! A JSON path (`JSON_TABLE(data, '$.a')`, `JSON_EXTRACT(data, '$.a')`),
12//! a `CAST(x AS DATE FORMAT 'YYYY-MM-DD')` format string, the
13//! `TABLESAMPLE (BUCKET 3 OUT OF 10)` / `(10 PERCENT)` counts, and
14//! `LIMIT` / `OFFSET` are all rewritten to `?`. So two queries differing
15//! only in such a literal — e.g. selecting a different JSON field or
16//! sampling a different bucket — collapse to the same normalized string.
17//!
18//! Three opt-in toggles ([`NormalizerOptions`]) further collapse
19//! repetitive shapes:
20//!
21//! - [`unify_in_list`](NormalizerOptions::unify_in_list):
22//! `IN (1, 2, 3)` → `IN (...)`.
23//! - [`unify_values`](NormalizerOptions::unify_values):
24//! `VALUES (1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 6)` → `VALUES (...)`.
25//! - [`alphabetize_insert_columns`](NormalizerOptions::alphabetize_insert_columns):
26//! `INSERT INTO t (c, b, a) VALUES (...)` →
27//! `INSERT INTO t (a, b, c) VALUES (...)`, only when VALUES is
28//! unified.
29//!
30//! Output is one `String` per parsed statement, formatted by
31//! sqlparser's `Display` after the rewrite.
