Fields

name: String

Function name (SUBSTRING, EXTRACT, TRIM, etc.)

alias: Option<String>

Literal(Value)

Literal value (string, number) for use in expressions e.g., ‘62’, 0, ‘active’

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Expr

fn clone(&self) -> Expr

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Expr

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for Expr

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Display for Expr

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl ExprExt for Expr

fn with_alias(self, alias: &str) -> Expr

Add an alias to this expression.

fn or_default(self, default: impl Into<Expr>) -> Expr

COALESCE with a default value.

fn json(self, key: &str) -> JsonBuilder

JSON text extraction (column->>‘key’).

fn path(self, dotted_path: &str) -> JsonBuilder

JSON path extraction with dot notation.

fn cast(self, target_type: &str) -> Expr

Cast to a type: CAST(expr AS type)

fn upper(self) -> Expr

UPPER(expr)

fn lower(self) -> Expr

LOWER(expr)

fn trim(self) -> Expr

TRIM(expr)

fn length(self) -> Expr

LENGTH(expr)

fn abs(self) -> Expr

ABS(expr)

impl From<&String> for Expr

fn from(s: &String) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<&str> for Expr

fn from(s: &str) -> Self

Convert a string reference to a Named expression. Enables: .select(["id", "name"]) instead of .select([col("id"), col("name")])

impl From<AggregateBuilder> for Expr

fn from(builder: AggregateBuilder) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<BinaryBuilder> for Expr

fn from(builder: BinaryBuilder) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<CaseBuilder> for Expr

fn from(builder: CaseBuilder) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<CastBuilder> for Expr

fn from(builder: CastBuilder) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.
