# SQL Tools
A rust crate meant to make SQL queries simple and communication between various SQL versions easy. The goal is to have most major variations of SQL compatible with this crate, however only Oracle SQL and SQLite are available right now. This is an evolution of [oracle_sql_tools](https://crates.io/crates/oracle_sql_tools).
# How To Use
In your `cargo.toml` file:
```toml
[dependencies]
sql_tools = "0.5.1"
# chrono is required if you're working with dates
chrono = "0.4.26"
```
To start using SQL Tools, you need a new connection.
```rust
// Oracle SQL
use sql_tools::sql_variations::OracleConnect;
let username = "new_user";
let password = "password123!";
let connection_string = "my-secure.connection/database";
let conn = OracleConnect::new(connection_string, username, password)?;
// SQLite
use sql_tools::sql_variations::SQLiteConnect;
let path = "<PATH_TO_DB_FILE>";
let conn = SQLiteConnect::new_path(path);
```
Once you established a connection type, you can use the various methods in this crate to interact with your database. These options are [select](#select), [update](#update), [insert](#insert), [create](#create), [delete](delete), and [alter](#alter).
## SQLDataTypes
This is the enum that is used to apply the proper type to the data that's being selected, updated, or inserted.
```rust
pub enum SQLDataTypes {
Varchar(String),
Number(i64),
Float(f64),
Date(chrono::NaiveDateTime),
NULL,
}
```
## SELECT
For the select method, you add the table you want to select from, then the columns in a vector. If you want to select all, simply input `vec!["*"]`. You can add a [where clause](#where) to filter out the rows you want, just like writing a SQL query.
```rust
let conn = OracleConnect::new(connection_string, username, password)?;
let foreign_table = Table { name: "national_sales" , id: "nat" }
let data: Vec<Vec<SQLDataTypes>> = conn
.select("regional_sales", vec![
// columns from joined tables need an id associated with them
"nat.revenue as state_rev",
// columns from the selected table do not
"revenue as city_rev",
"city"
"sale_date",
])
.inner_join(foreign_table, "product_id", "product_id")
.where_in("product_id", vec!["1001", "4567"])
.and("nat.state", vec!["Texas"])
.and_not("city", vec!["Austin", "Dallas"])
.build()?;
data.iter().for_each(|row: &Vec<SQLDataTypes>| { println!("{:?}", row) });
```
## UPDATE
Updates a table's column(s) based on criteria set in the optional [where clauses](#where). Updates can return Ok() or the number of rows that were updated.
```rust
let conn = OracleConnect::new(connection_string, username, password)?;
conn.update("global_sales")
.set("continent", "North America")
.where_in("country", vec!["Canada", "United States", "Mexico"])
.build()?;
// If you want to get the number of rows that were updated
let count: usize = conn
.update("global_sales")
.set("continent", "North America")
.where_in("country", vec!["Canada", "United States", "Mexico"])
.build_return_count()?;
```
## INSERT
Inserts a grid (two-dimensional vector) of data into your database. Can take any type that has the [`ToSQLData`](#tosqldata) trait implemented.
```rust
let conn = OracleConnect::new(connection_string, username, password)?;
let data: Vec<Vec<&str>> = vec![
vec!["Column_A", "Column_B", "Column_C"],
vec!["a1", "b1", "c1"],
vec!["a2", "b2", "c2"],
vec!["a3", "b3", "c3"],
];
conn.insert("my_table", data)?.build()?;
```
If the table does not exist, you can add the `create_table()` method to automatically create the table.
```rust
conn.insert("my_table", data)?.create_table().build()?;
```
If you have a grid of strings that have integers, dates, etc.. that you want to be formatted properly before being inserted into a table then you want to add the `.format_grid_strings()` method.
```rust
let data: Vec<Vec<&str>> = vec![
vec!["product_id", "date_sold", "price"],
vec!["P-001", "09/15/2024", "54.99"],
vec!["P-002", "10/22/2024", "19.99"],
vec!["P-003", "11/04/2024", "39.99"],
];
conn.insert("sales_data", data)?
// Will convert the "date_sold" column into chrono::NaiveDateTime
// and the "price" column into f64.
.format_grid_strings()?
.build()?;
```
## CREATE
Creates a table using a vector of the `CreateColumns` struct and the `CreateDataTypes` to apply the correct types to the new columns.
```rust
let conn = OracleConnect::new(connection_string, username, password)?;
let columns = vec![
CreateColumns{ name: "Column_A".to_string(), data_type: CreateDataTypes::VARCHAR(20 as usize) },
CreateColumns{ name: "Column_B".to_string(), data_type: CreateDataTypes::NUMBER },
CreateColumns{ name: "Column_C".to_string(), data_type: CreateDataTypes::FLOAT },
];
conn.create()
.table("my_table", columns)
.build()?;
```
You can add a column after you initiated the create table process.
```rust
let my_table: CreateTable = conn.create()
.table("my_table", columns);
if add_date_col == true {
my_table.add_column("Column_D".to_string(), CreateDataTypes::DATE);
}
my_table.build()?;
```
## DELETE
Deletes rows in a table based on the where methods added to the `DeleteProps`. If no where methods are added, it will delete all data in the table.
```rust
conn.delete("employee_data")
.where_in("status", vec!["terminated"])
.build()?;
```
## ALTER
Alters a table by renaming it or adding, modifying, dropping, or renaming a column.
```rust
// renaming a table
conn.alter()
.table("local_sales")
.rename("regional_sales")
.build()?;
// Adding a column
let column = AlterColumns {
name: String::from("title"),
data_type: CreateDataTypes::VARCHAR(10),
default: Some(String::from("PMO")),
not_null: true,
};
conn.alter()
.table("employees")
.add(vec![column])
.build()?;
// Modifying a column (very similar to adding)
conn.alter()
.table("employees")
.modify(vec![column])
.build()?;
// Dropping a column
conn.alter()
.table("sales")
.drop("description")
.build()?;
// Renaming a column
conn.alter()
.table("sales")
.rename_column("salesman", "employee")
.build()?;
```
## ToSQLData
`ToSQLData` is the trait that is implemented for the `insert()` method which is used to convert various data types to `SQLDataTypes`.
To implement a local enum:
```rust
enum MyEnum {
Name(String),
Age(i64)
}
impl ToSQLData for MyEnum {
fn fmt_data(self) -> SQLDataTypes {
match self {
MyEnum::Name(val) => SQLDataTypes::Varchar(val.into()),
MyEnum::Age(val) => SQLDataTypes::Number(val.into()),
}
}
}
```
To implement a foreign enum:
```rust
use some_crate::SomeForeignType;
struct MyType<'a>(&'a SomeForeignType);
impl ToSQLData for MyType<'_> {
fn fmt_data(self) -> SQLDataTypes {
match self.0 {
SomeForeignType::Int(val) => SQLDataTypes::Number(*val),
SomeForeignType::Float(val) => SQLDataTypes::Float(*val),
SomeForeignType::String(val) => SQLDataTypes::Varchar(val.to_owned()),
SomeForeignType::None => SQLDataTypes::NULL,
}
}
}
```
