Crate pylon_client 

A native Rust query client for Pylon — lets a Rust project run PyQL queries against a Pylon-managed Postgres database directly, without going through pylon-py/pyo3. Query results decode either into a generic, dynamically-typed Value/Object or into a caller’s own row struct via Queryable and #[derive(Queryable)] — there is no generated per-schema-type code either way.

Compilation reuses pylon_core::query::compile as-is; connection execution reuses pylon_pgcon::PgPool/PgTransaction as-is. The one genuinely new piece is decode, which walks a compiled query’s ShapeNode alongside its decoded DecodedValue row — the Rust counterpart of pylon/query.py’s _decode (which only ever ran Python-side, operating on already-Pythonized values).

Modules

json

A decoded result rendered as JSON: objects carry exactly the pointers their shape selected, in shape order; temporal values are ISO 8601 strings; durations are ISO 8601 durations; bytes are base64; enums are their label; decimals keep every digit.

query_arg

Query arguments: QueryArg for a single value, QueryArgs for the collection a query method takes, and ValueOpt + [named_args!] for building a named collection inline.

queryable

Queryable — decoding a generic Value into a caller’s own type, and the helpers #[derive(Queryable)] generates calls to.

Macros

named_args

Builds a named argument collection for a query with $name parameters:

Structs

Builder

Builds a Client. dsn is required up front (this crate never parses pylon.toml — see the crate-level docs); everything else has a sensible default.

CacheStats

Snapshot of a cache’s current size — see Cache::stat.

ChannelListener

A live subscription to one Channel, returned by crate::Client::listen.

Client

An async Pylon client — a connection pool plus a compiled schema, shared cheaply across every Client::with_globals/Client::with_config view of it (mirrors pylon/client.py’s own shared-pool-ref pattern).

Group

Result of a group statement: one grouping key, the grouping label list, and the elements sharing that key.

Object

A schema object, a free object literal, or a named tuple — all three decode to the same by-name field-access shape. type_name is Some only for a real schema type (including the concrete type of a polymorphic interface query result) or a registered named tuple; None for a free object (select { a := 1 }) or an unregistered structural named tuple.

Range

A PostgreSQL range value. lower/upper are None for an unbounded side; empty == true means the whole range is empty (lower/upper are meaningless then, not “both unbounded”).

Transaction

A single transaction attempt, handed to the closure passed to crate::Client::transaction. Exposes the same query methods as crate::Client itself (minus analyze, which the Python client also never runs inside an explicit transaction).

Enums

DecodedValue

Error

Isolation

PostgreSQL transaction isolation level. Defaults to Serializable, matching pylon/client.py’s own default.

Value

A decoded query result value. One variant per ShapeNode/DecodedValue kind decode.rs knows how to produce — see that module for the walk that builds these.

Type Aliases

Result

TxFuture

A transaction attempt body’s return type — boxed since a plain generic Fut: Future can’t express “this future borrows the &Transaction it was handed” without higher-ranked lifetimes on the future type itself; boxing sidesteps that and matches how most async-closure-taking APIs in the ecosystem handle exactly this shape.

Derive Macros

Queryable

#[derive(Queryable)]. Shares the trait’s name the way serde’s derives share theirs — a macro and a trait live in separate namespaces, so one use pylon_client::Queryable; brings in both.
