Compile-time Language Integrated Query for Scala
Quill provides a Quoted Domain Specific Language (QDSL) to express queries in Scala and execute them in a target language. The library's core is designed to support multiple target languages, currently featuring specializations for Structured Query Language (SQL) and Cassandra Query Language (CQL).
Scastie is a great tool to try out Quill without having to prepare a local environment. It works with mirror contexts, see this snippet as an example.
- Boilerplate-free mapping: The database schema is mapped using simple case classes.
- Quoted DSL: Queries are defined inside a
quoteblock. Quill parses each quoted block of code (quotation) at compile time and translates them to an internal Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) - Compile-time query generation: The
ctx.runcall reads the quotation's AST and translates it to the target language at compile time, emitting the query string as a compilation message. As the query string is known at compile time, the runtime overhead is very low and similar to using the database driver directly. - Compile-time query validation: If configured, the query is verified against the database at compile time and the compilation fails if it is not valid. The query validation does not alter the database state.
Note: The GIF example uses Eclipse, which shows compilation messages to the user.
Quill has integrations with many libraries. If you are using a regular RDBMS e.g. PostgreSQL and want to use Quill to query it with an asychronous, non-blocking, reactive application, the easiest way to get started is by using an awesome library called ZIO.
A simple ZIO + Quill application looks like this:
case class Person(name: String, age: Int)
object QuillContext extends PostgresZioJdbcContext(SnakeCase)
object DataService {
import QuillContext._
def getPeople = run(query[Person])
}
object Main extends App {
override def run(args: List[String]) =
DataService.getPeople
.inject(DataSourceLayer.fromPrefix("myDatabaseConfig").orDie)
.debug("Results")
.exitCode
}Add the following to build.sbt:
libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
"io.getquill" %% "quill-jdbc-zio" % "3.12.0",
"io.github.kitlangton" %% "zio-magic" % "0.3.11",
"org.postgresql" % "postgresql" % "42.3.1"
)You can find this code (with some more examples) complete with a docker-provided Postgres database here.
Choose the quill module that works for you!
- If you are starting from scratch with a regular RDBMS try using the
quill-jdbc-ziomodule as shown above. - If you are developing a legacy Java project and don't want/need reactive, use
quill-jdbc. - If you are developing a project with Cats and/or Monix, try
quill-jdbc-monix. - If you like to "live dangerously" and want to try a socket-level async library, try
quill-jasync-postgresorquill-jasync-mysql. - If you are using Cassandra, Spark, or OrientDB, try the corresponding modules for each of them.
The QDSL allows the user to write plain Scala code, leveraging Scala's syntax and type system. Quotations are created using the quote method and can contain any excerpt of code that uses supported operations. To create quotations, first create a context instance. Please see the context section for more details on the different context available.
For this documentation, a special type of context that acts as a mirror is used:
import io.getquill._
val ctx = new SqlMirrorContext(MirrorSqlDialect, Literal)The context instance provides all the types, methods, and encoders/decoders needed for quotations:
import ctx._A quotation can be a simple value:
val pi = quote(3.14159)And be used within another quotation:
case class Circle(radius: Float)
val areas = quote {
query[Circle].map(c => pi * c.radius * c.radius)
}Quotations can also contain high-order functions and inline values:
val area = quote {
(c: Circle) => {
val r2 = c.radius * c.radius
pi * r2
}
}val areas = quote {
query[Circle].map(c => area(c))
}Quill's normalization engine applies reduction steps before translating the quotation to the target language. The correspondent normalized quotation for both versions of the areas query is:
val areas = quote {
query[Circle].map(c => 3.14159 * c.radius * c.radius)
}Scala doesn't have support for high-order functions with type parameters. It's possible to use a method type parameter for this purpose:
def existsAny[T] = quote {
(xs: Query[T]) => (p: T => Boolean) =>
xs.filter(p(_)).nonEmpty
}
val q = quote {
query[Circle].filter { c1 =>
existsAny(query[Circle])(c2 => c2.radius > c1.radius)
}
}You can also use implicit classes to extend things in quotations.
implicit class Ext(q: Query[Person]) {
def olderThan(age: Int) = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.age > lift(age))
}
}
run(query[Person].olderThan(44))(see implicit-extensions for additional information.)
Quotations are both compile-time and runtime values. Quill uses a type refinement to store the quotation's AST as an annotation available at compile-time and the q.ast method exposes the AST as runtime value.
It is important to avoid giving explicit types to quotations when possible. For instance, this quotation can't be read at compile-time as the type refinement is lost:
// Avoid type widening (Quoted[Query[Circle]]), or else the quotation will be dynamic.
val q: Quoted[Query[Circle]] = quote {
query[Circle].filter(c => c.radius > 10)
}
ctx.run(q) // Dynamic queryQuill falls back to runtime normalization and query generation if the quotation's AST can't be read at compile-time. Please refer to dynamic queries for more information.
Quoting is implicit when writing a query in a run statement.
ctx.run(query[Circle].map(_.radius))
// SELECT r.radius FROM Circle rQuotations are designed to be self-contained, without references to runtime values outside their scope. There are two mechanisms to explicitly bind runtime values to a quotation execution.
A runtime value can be lifted to a quotation through the method lift:
def biggerThan(i: Float) = quote {
query[Circle].filter(r => r.radius > lift(i))
}
ctx.run(biggerThan(10)) // SELECT r.radius FROM Circle r WHERE r.radius > ?Note that literal-constants do not need to be lifted, they can be used in queries directly. Literal constants are supported starting Scala 2.12.
final val minAge = 21 // This is the same as: final val minAge: 21 = 21
ctx.run(query[Person].filter(p => p.age > minAge)) // SELECT p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.name > 21A Iterable instance can be lifted as a Query. There are two main usages for lifted queries:
def find(radiusList: List[Float]) = quote {
query[Circle].filter(r => liftQuery(radiusList).contains(r.radius))
}
ctx.run(find(List(1.1F, 1.2F)))
// SELECT r.radius FROM Circle r WHERE r.radius IN (?)def insert(circles: List[Circle]) = quote {
liftQuery(circles).foreach(c => query[Circle].insert(c))
}
ctx.run(insert(List(Circle(1.1F), Circle(1.2F))))
// INSERT INTO Circle (radius) VALUES (?)The database schema is represented by case classes. By default, quill uses the class and field names as the database identifiers:
case class Circle(radius: Float)
val q = quote {
query[Circle].filter(c => c.radius > 1)
}
ctx.run(q) // SELECT c.radius FROM Circle c WHERE c.radius > 1Alternatively, the identifiers can be customized:
val circles = quote {
querySchema[Circle]("circle_table", _.radius -> "radius_column")
}
val q = quote {
circles.filter(c => c.radius > 1)
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT c.radius_column FROM circle_table c WHERE c.radius_column > 1If multiple tables require custom identifiers, it is good practice to define a schema object with all table queries to be reused across multiple queries:
case class Circle(radius: Int)
case class Rectangle(length: Int, width: Int)
object schema {
val circles = quote {
querySchema[Circle](
"circle_table",
_.radius -> "radius_column")
}
val rectangles = quote {
querySchema[Rectangle](
"rectangle_table",
_.length -> "length_column",
_.width -> "width_column")
}
}Database generated values can be returned from an insert query by using .returningGenerated. These properties
will also be excluded from the insertion since they are database generated.
case class Product(id: Int, description: String, sku: Long)
val q = quote {
query[Product].insert(lift(Product(0, "My Product", 1011L))).returningGenerated(_.id)
}
val returnedIds = ctx.run(q) //: List[Int]
// INSERT INTO Product (description,sku) VALUES (?, ?) -- NOTE that 'id' is not being inserted.Multiple properties can be returned in a Tuple or Case Class and all of them will be excluded from insertion.
NOTE: Using multiple properties is currently supported by Postgres, Oracle and SQL Server
// Assuming sku is generated by the database.
val q = quote {
query[Product].insert(lift(Product(0, "My Product", 1011L))).returningGenerated(r => (id, sku))
}
val returnedIds = ctx.run(q) //: List[(Int, Long)]
// INSERT INTO Product (description) VALUES (?) RETURNING id, sku -- NOTE that 'id' and 'sku' are not being inserted.In certain situations, we might want to return fields that are not auto generated as well. In this case we do not want
the fields to be automatically excluded from the insertion. The returning method is used for that.
val q = quote {
query[Product].insert(lift(Product(0, "My Product", 1011L))).returning(r => (id, description))
}
val returnedIds = ctx.run(q) //: List[(Int, String)]
// INSERT INTO Product (id, description, sku) VALUES (?, ?, ?) RETURNING id, descriptionWait a second! Why did we just insert id into the database? That is because returning does not exclude values
from the insertion! We can fix this situation by manually specifying the columns to insert:
val q = quote {
query[Product].insert(_.description -> "My Product", _.sku -> 1011L))).returning(r => (id, description))
}
val returnedIds = ctx.run(q) //: List[(Int, String)]
// INSERT INTO Product (description, sku) VALUES (?, ?) RETURNING id, descriptionWe can also fix this situation by using an insert-meta.
implicit val productInsertMeta = insertMeta[Product](_.id)
val q = quote {
query[Product].insert(lift(Product(0L, "My Product", 1011L))).returning(r => (id, description))
}
val returnedIds = ctx.run(q) //: List[(Int, String)]
// INSERT INTO Product (description, sku) VALUES (?, ?) RETURNING id, descriptionreturning can also be used after update:
val q = quote {
query[Product].update(lift(Product(42, "Updated Product", 2022L))).returning(r => (r.id, r.description))
}
val updated = ctx.run(q) //: List[(Int, String)]
// UPDATE Product SET id = ?, description = ?, sku = ? RETURNING id, descriptionor even after delete:
val q = quote {
query[Product].delete.returning(r => (r.id, r.description))
}
val deleted = ctx.run(q) //: List[(Int, String)]
// DELETE FROM Product RETURNING id, descriptionValues returned can be further customized in some databases.
The returning and returningGenerated methods also support arithmetic operations, SQL UDFs and
even entire queries. These are inserted directly into the SQL RETURNING clause.
Assuming this basic query:
val q = quote {
query[Product].insert(_.description -> "My Product", _.sku -> 1011L)
}Add 100 to the value of id:
ctx.run(q.returning(r => r.id + 100)) //: List[Int]
// INSERT INTO Product (description, sku) VALUES (?, ?) RETURNING id + 100Pass the value of id into a UDF:
val udf = quote { (i: Long) => infix"myUdf($i)".as[Int] }
ctx.run(q.returning(r => udf(r.id))) //: List[Int]
// INSERT INTO Product (description, sku) VALUES (?, ?) RETURNING myUdf(id)Use the return value of sku to issue a query:
case class Supplier(id: Int, clientSku: Long)
ctx.run {
q.returning(r => query[Supplier].filter(s => s.sku == r.sku).map(_.id).max)
} //: List[Option[Long]]
// INSERT INTO Product (description,sku) VALUES ('My Product', 1011) RETURNING (SELECT MAX(s.id) FROM Supplier s WHERE s.sku = clientSku)As is typically the case with Quill, you can use all of these features together.
ctx.run {
q.returning(r =>
(r.id + 100, udf(r.id), query[Supplier].filter(s => s.sku == r.sku).map(_.id).max)
)
} // List[(Int, Int, Option[Long])]
// INSERT INTO Product (description,sku) VALUES ('My Product', 1011)
// RETURNING id + 100, myUdf(id), (SELECT MAX(s.id) FROM Supplier s WHERE s.sku = sku)NOTE: Queries used inside of return clauses can only return a single row per insert. Otherwise, Postgres will throw:
ERROR: more than one row returned by a subquery used as an expression. This is why is it strongly recommended that you use aggregators such asmaxormininside of quill returning-clause queries. In the case that this is impossible (e.g. when using Postgres booleans), you can use the.valuemethod:q.returning(r => query[Supplier].filter(s => s.sku == r.sku).map(_.id).value).
The returning and returningGenerated methods are more restricted when using SQL Server; they only support
arithmetic operations. These are inserted directly into the SQL OUTPUT INSERTED.* or OUTPUT DELETED.* clauses.
Assuming the query:
val q = quote {
query[Product].insert(_.description -> "My Product", _.sku -> 1011L)
}Add 100 to the value of id:
ctx.run(q.returning(r => id + 100)) //: List[Int]
// INSERT INTO Product (description, sku) OUTPUT INSERTED.id + 100 VALUES (?, ?)Update returning:
val q = quote {
query[Product].update(_.description -> "Updated Product", _.sku -> 2022L).returning(r => (r.id, r.description))
}
val updated = ctx.run(q)
// UPDATE Product SET description = 'Updated Product', sku = 2022 OUTPUT INSERTED.id, INSERTED.descriptionDelete returning:
val q = quote {
query[Product].delete.returning(r => (r.id, r.description))
}
val updated = ctx.run(q)
// DELETE FROM Product OUTPUT DELETED.id, DELETED.descriptionQuill supports nested Embedded case classes:
case class Contact(phone: String, address: String) extends Embedded
case class Person(id: Int, name: String, contact: Contact)
ctx.run(query[Person])
// SELECT x.id, x.name, x.phone, x.address FROM Person xNote that default naming behavior uses the name of the nested case class properties. It's possible to override this default behavior using a custom schema:
case class Contact(phone: String, address: String) extends Embedded
case class Person(id: Int, name: String, homeContact: Contact, workContact: Option[Contact])
val q = quote {
querySchema[Person](
"Person",
_.homeContact.phone -> "homePhone",
_.homeContact.address -> "homeAddress",
_.workContact.map(_.phone) -> "workPhone",
_.workContact.map(_.address) -> "workAddress"
)
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT x.id, x.name, x.homePhone, x.homeAddress, x.workPhone, x.workAddress FROM Person xThe overall abstraction of quill queries uses database tables as if they were in-memory collections. Scala for-comprehensions provide syntactic sugar to deal with these kinds of monadic operations:
case class Person(id: Int, name: String, age: Int)
case class Contact(personId: Int, phone: String)
val q = quote {
for {
p <- query[Person] if(p.id == 999)
c <- query[Contact] if(c.personId == p.id)
} yield {
(p.name, c.phone)
}
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.name, c.phone FROM Person p, Contact c WHERE (p.id = 999) AND (c.personId = p.id)Quill normalizes the quotation and translates the monadic joins to applicative joins, generating a database-friendly query that avoids nested queries.
Any of the following features can be used together with the others and/or within a for-comprehension:
val q = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.age > 18)
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.id, p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.age > 18val q = quote {
query[Person].map(p => p.name)
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.name FROM Person pval q = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.age > 18).flatMap(p => query[Contact].filter(c => c.personId == p.id))
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT c.personId, c.phone FROM Person p, Contact c WHERE (p.age > 18) AND (c.personId = p.id)// similar to `flatMap` but for transformations that return a traversable instead of `Query`
val q = quote {
query[Person].concatMap(p => p.name.split(" "))
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT UNNEST(SPLIT(p.name, " ")) FROM Person pval q1 = quote {
query[Person].sortBy(p => p.age)
}
ctx.run(q1)
// SELECT p.id, p.name, p.age FROM Person p ORDER BY p.age ASC NULLS FIRST
val q2 = quote {
query[Person].sortBy(p => p.age)(Ord.descNullsLast)
}
ctx.run(q2)
// SELECT p.id, p.name, p.age FROM Person p ORDER BY p.age DESC NULLS LAST
val q3 = quote {
query[Person].sortBy(p => (p.name, p.age))(Ord(Ord.asc, Ord.desc))
}
ctx.run(q3)
// SELECT p.id, p.name, p.age FROM Person p ORDER BY p.name ASC, p.age DESCval q = quote {
query[Person].drop(2).take(1)
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT x.id, x.name, x.age FROM Person x LIMIT 1 OFFSET 2val q = quote {
query[Person].groupBy(p => p.age).map {
case (age, people) =>
(age, people.size)
}
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.age, COUNT(*) FROM Person p GROUP BY p.ageval q = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.age > 18).union(query[Person].filter(p => p.age > 60))
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT x.id, x.name, x.age FROM (SELECT id, name, age FROM Person p WHERE p.age > 18
// UNION SELECT id, name, age FROM Person p1 WHERE p1.age > 60) xval q = quote {

query[Person].filter(p2 => p2.id != p1.id && p2.age == p1.age).isEmpty
}
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p1.id, p1.name, p1.age FROM Person p1 WHERE

}
}
ctx.run(q2)

}
ctx.run(q2)
// SELECT p.id, p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.id IN (SELECT p1.* FROM Person p1 WHERE EXISTS (SELECT c.* FROM Contact c WHERE c.personId = p1.id))val q = quote {

}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT DISTINCT p.age FROM Person pval q = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.name == "John").nested.map(p => p.age)
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.age FROM (SELECT p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.name = 'John') pJoins are arguably the largest source of complexity in most SQL queries. Quill offers a few different syntaxes so you can choose the right one for your use-case!
case class A(id: Int)
case class B(fk: Int)
// Applicative Joins:
quote {
query[A].join(query[B]).on(_.id == _.fk)
}
// Implicit Joins:
quote {
for {
a <- query[A]
b <- query[B] if (a.id == b.fk)
} yield (a, b)
}
// Flat Joins:
quote {
for {
a <- query[A]
b <- query[B].join(_.fk == a.id)
} yield (a, b)
}Let's see them one by one assuming the following schema:
case class Person(id: Int, name: String)
case class Address(street: String, zip: Int, fk: Int)(Note: If your use case involves lots and lots of joins, both inner and outer. Skip right to the flat-joins section!)
Applicative joins are useful for joining two tables together, they are straightforward to understand, and typically look good on one line. Quill supports inner, left-outer, right-outer, and full-outer (i.e. cross) applicative joins.
// Inner Join
val q = quote {
query[Person].join(query[Address]).on(_.id == _.fk)
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[(Person, Address)]
// SELECT x1.id, x1.name, x2.street, x2.zip, x2.fk
// FROM Person x1 INNER JOIN Address x2 ON x1.id = x2.fk
// Left (Outer) Join
val q = quote {
query[Person].leftJoin(query[Address]).on((p, a) => p.id == a.fk)
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[(Person, Option[Address])]
// Note that when you use named-variables in your comprehension, Quill does its best to honor them in the query.
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.street, a.zip, a.fk
// FROM Person p LEFT JOIN Address a ON p.id = a.fk
// Right (Outer) Join
val q = quote {
query[Person].rightJoin(query[Address]).on((p, a) => p.id == a.fk)
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[(Option[Person], Address)]
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.street, a.zip, a.fk
// FROM Person p RIGHT JOIN Address a ON p.id = a.fk
// Full (Outer) Join
val q = quote {
query[Person].fullJoin(query[Address]).on((p, a) => p.id == a.fk)
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[(Option[Person], Option[Address])]
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.street, a.zip, a.fk
// FROM Person p FULL JOIN Address a ON p.id = a.fkWhat about joining more than two tables with the applicative syntax? Here's how to do that:
case class Company(zip: Int)
// All is well for two tables but for three or more, the nesting mess begins:
val q = quote {
query[Person]
.join(query[Address]).on({case (p, a) => p.id == a.fk}) // Let's use `case` here to stay consistent
.join(query[Company]).on({case ((p, a), c) => a.zip == c.zip})
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[((Person, Address), Company)]
// (Unfortunately when you use `case` statements, Quill can't help you with the variables names either!)
// SELECT x01.id, x01.name, x11.street, x11.zip, x11.fk, x12.name, x12.zip
// FROM Person x01 INNER JOIN Address x11 ON x01.id = x11.fk INNER JOIN Company x12 ON x11.zip = x12.zipNo worries though, implicit joins and flat joins have your other use-cases covered!
Quill's implicit joins use a monadic syntax making them pleasant to use for joining many tables together. They look a lot like Scala collections when used in for-comprehensions making them familiar to a typical Scala developer. What's the catch? They can only do inner-joins.
val q = quote {
for {
p <- query[Person]
a <- query[Address] if (p.id == a.fk)
} yield (p, a)
}
run(q) //: List[(Person, Address)]
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.street, a.zip, a.fk
// FROM Person p, Address a WHERE p.id = a.fkNow, this is great because you can keep adding more and more joins without having to do any pesky nesting.
val q = quote {
for {
p <- query[Person]
a <- query[Address] if (p.id == a.fk)
c <- query[Company] if (c.zip == a.zip)
} yield (p, a, c)
}
run(q) //: List[(Person, Address, Company)]
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.street, a.zip, a.fk, c.name, c.zip
// FROM Person p, Address a, Company c WHERE p.id = a.fk AND c.zip = a.zipWell that looks nice but wait! What If I need to inner, and outer join lots of tables nicely? No worries, flat-joins are here to help!
Flat Joins give you the best of both worlds! In the monadic syntax, you can use both inner joins, and left-outer joins together without any of that pesky nesting.
// Inner Join
val q = quote {
for {
p <- query[Person]
a <- query[Address].join(a => a.fk == p.id)
} yield (p,a)
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[(Person, Address)]
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.street, a.zip, a.fk
// FROM Person p INNER JOIN Address a ON a.fk = p.id
// Left (Outer) Join
val q = quote {
for {
p <- query[Person]
a <- query[Address].leftJoin(a => a.fk == p.id)
} yield (p,a)
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[(Person, Option[Address])]
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.street, a.zip, a.fk
// FROM Person p LEFT JOIN Address a ON a.fk = p.idNow you can keep adding both right and left joins without nesting!
val q = quote {
for {
p <- query[Person]
a <- query[Address].join(a => a.fk == p.id)
c <- query[Company].leftJoin(c => c.zip == a.zip)
} yield (p,a,c)
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[(Person, Address, Option[Company])]
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.street, a.zip, a.fk, c.name, c.zip
// FROM Person p
// INNER JOIN Address a ON a.fk = p.id
// LEFT JOIN Company c ON c.zip = a.zipCan't figure out what kind of join you want to use? Who says you have to choose?
With Quill the following multi-join queries are equivalent, use them according to preference:
case class Employer(id: Int, personId: Int, name: String)
val qFlat = quote {
for{
(p,e) <- query[Person].join(query[Employer]).on(_.id == _.personId)
c <- query[Contact].leftJoin(_.personId == p.id)
} yield(p, e, c)
}
val qNested = quote {

// java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: requirement failed: Found an `ON` table reference of a table that is

A good guideline is in any query or subquery, choose one of the following:
- Use flat-joins + applicative joins or
- Use implicit joins
Also, note that not all Option operations are available on outer-joined tables (i.e. tables wrapped in an Option object),
only a specific subset. This is mostly due to the inherent limitations of SQL itself. For more information, see the
'Optional Tables' section.
Note that the behavior of Optionals has recently changed to include stricter null-checks. See the orNull / getOrNull section for more details.
Option objects are used to encode nullable fields. Say you have the following schema:
CREATE TABLE Person(
id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
name VARCHAR(255) -- This is nullable!
);
CREATE TABLE Address(
fk INT, -- This is nullable!
street VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
zip INT NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT a_to_p FOREIGN KEY (fk) REFERENCES Person(id)
);
CREATE TABLE Company(
name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
zip INT NOT NULL
)This would encode to the following:
case class Person(id:Int, name:Option[String])
case class Address(fk:Option[Int], street:String, zip:Int)
case class Company(name:String, zip:Int)Some important notes regarding Optionals and nullable fields.
In many cases, Quill tries to rely on the null-fallthrough behavior that is ANSI standard:
null == null := falsenull == [true | false] := falseThis allows the generated SQL for most optional operations to be simple. For example, the expression
Option[String].map(v => v + "foo")can be expressed as the SQLv || 'foo'as opposed toCASE IF (v is not null) v || 'foo' ELSE null ENDso long as the concatenation operator||"falls-through" and returnsnullwhen the input is null. This is not true of all databases (e.g. Oracle), forcing Quill to return the longer expression with explicit null-checking. Also, if there are conditionals inside of an Option operation (e.g.o.map(v => if (v == "x") "y" else "z")) this creates SQL with case statements, which will never fall-through when the input value is null. This forces Quill to explicitly null-check such statements in every SQL dialect.
Let's go through the typical operations of optionals.
The isDefined method is generally a good way to null-check a nullable field:
val q = quote {
query[Address].filter(a => a.fk.isDefined)
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT a.fk, a.street, a.zip FROM Address a WHERE a.fk IS NOT NULLThe isEmpty method works the same way:
val q = quote {
query[Address].filter(a => a.fk.isEmpty)
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT a.fk, a.street, a.zip FROM Address a WHERE a.fk IS NULLThis method is typically used for inspecting nullable fields inside of boolean conditions, most notably joining!
val q = quote {
query[Person].join(query[Address]).on((p, a)=> a.fk.exists(_ == p.id))
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.fk, a.street, a.zip FROM Person p INNER JOIN Address a ON a.fk = p.idNote that in the example above, the exists method does not cause the generated
SQL to do an explicit null-check in order to express the False case. This is because Quill relies on the
typical database behavior of immediately falsifying a statement that has null on one side of the equation.
Use this method in boolean conditions that should succeed in the null case.
val q = quote {
query[Person].join(query[Address]).on((p, a) => a.fk.forall(_ == p.id))
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.fk, a.street, a.zip FROM Person p INNER JOIN Address a ON a.fk IS NULL OR a.fk = p.idTypically this is useful when doing negative conditions, e.g. when a field is not some specified value (e.g. "Joe").
Being null in this case is typically a matching result.
val q = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.name.forall(_ != "Joe"))
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.id, p.name FROM Person p WHERE p.name IS NULL OR p.name <> 'Joe'As in regular Scala code, performing any operation on an optional value typically requires using the map function.
val q = quote {
for {
p <- query[Person]
} yield (p.id, p.name.map("Dear " + _))
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.id, 'Dear ' || p.name FROM Person p
// * In Dialects where `||` does not fall-through for nulls (e.g. Oracle):
// * SELECT p.id, CASE WHEN p.name IS NOT NULL THEN 'Dear ' || p.name ELSE null END FROM Person pAdditionally, this method is useful when you want to get a non-optional field out of an outer-joined table
(i.e. a table wrapped in an Option object).
val q = quote {
query[Company].leftJoin(query[Address])
.on((c, a) => c.zip == a.zip)
.map {case(c,a) => // Row type is (Company, Option[Address])
(c.name, a.map(_.street), a.map(_.zip)) // Use `Option.map` to get `street` and `zip` fields
}
}
run(q)
// SELECT c.name, a.street, a.zip FROM Company c LEFT JOIN Address a ON c.zip = a.zipFor more details about this operation (and some caveats), see the 'Optional Tables' section.
Use these when the Option.map functionality is not sufficient. This typically happens when you need to manipulate
multiple nullable fields in a way which would otherwise result in Option[Option[T]].
val q = quote {
for {
a <- query[Person]
b <- query[Person] if (a.id > b.id)
} yield (
// If this was `a.name.map`, resulting record type would be Option[Option[String]]
a.name.flatMap(an =>
b.name.map(bn =>
an+" comes after "+bn)))
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[Option[String]]
// SELECT (a.name || ' comes after ') || b.name FROM Person a, Person b WHERE a.id > b.id
// * In Dialects where `||` does not fall-through for nulls (e.g. Oracle):
// * SELECT CASE WHEN a.name IS NOT NULL AND b.name IS NOT NULL THEN (a.name || ' comes after ') || b.name ELSE null END FROM Person a, Person b WHERE a.id > b.id
// Alternatively, you can use `flatten`
val q = quote {
for {
a <- query[Person]
b <- query[Person] if (a.id > b.id)
} yield (
a.name.map(an =>
b.name.map(bn =>
an + " comes after " + bn)).flatten)
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[Option[String]]
// SELECT (a.name || ' comes after ') || b.name FROM Person a, Person b WHERE a.id > b.idThis is also very useful when selecting from outer-joined tables i.e. where the entire table
is inside of an Option object. Note how below we get the fk field from Option[Address].
val q = quote {
query[Person].leftJoin(query[Address])
.on((p, a) => a.fk.exists(_ == p.id))
.map {case (p /*Person*/, a /*Option[Address]*/) => (p.name, a.flatMap(_.fk))}
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[(Option[String], Option[Int])]
// SELECT p.name, a.fk FROM Person p LEFT JOIN Address a ON a.fk = p.idThe orNull method can be used to convert an Option-enclosed row back into a regular row.
Since Option[T].orNull does not work for primitive types (e.g. Int, Double, etc...),
you can use the getOrNull method inside of quoted blocks to do the same thing.
Note that since the presence of null columns can cause queries to break in some data sources (e.g. Spark), so use this operation very carefully.
val q = quote {
query[Person].join(query[Address])
.on((p, a) => a.fk.exists(_ == p.id))
.filter {case (p /*Person*/, a /*Option[Address]*/) =>
a.fk.getOrNull != 123 } // Exclude a particular value from the query.
// Since we already did an inner-join on this value, we know it is not null.
}
ctx.run(q) //: List[(Address, Person)]
// SELECT p.id, p.name, a.fk, a.street, a.zip FROM Person p INNER JOIN Address a ON a.fk IS NOT NULL AND a.fk = p.id WHERE a.fk <> 123In certain situations, you may wish to pretend that a nullable-field is not actually nullable and perform regular operations
(e.g. arithmetic, concatenation, etc...) on the field. You can use a combination of Option.apply and orNull (or getOrNull where needed)
in order to do this.
val q = quote {
query[Person].map(p => Option(p.name.orNull + " suffix"))
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.name || ' suffix' FROM Person p
// i.e. same as the previous behaviorIn all other situations, since Quill strictly checks nullable values, and case.. if conditionals will work correctly in all Optional constructs.
However, since they may introduce behavior changes in your codebase, the following warning has been introduced:
Conditionals inside of Option.[map | flatMap | exists | forall] will create a
CASEstatement in order to properly null-check the sub-query (...)
val q = quote {
query[Person].map(p => p.name.map(n => if (n == "Joe") "foo" else "bar").getOrElse("baz"))
}
// Information:(16, 15) Conditionals inside of Option.map will create a `CASE` statement in order to properly null-check the sub-query: `p.name.map((n) => if(n == "Joe") "foo" else "bar")`.
// Expressions like Option(if (v == "foo") else "bar").getOrElse("baz") will now work correctly, but expressions that relied on the broken behavior (where "bar" would be returned instead) need to be modified (see the "orNull / getOrNull" section of the documentation of more detail).
ctx.run(a)
// Used to be this:
// SELECT CASE WHEN CASE WHEN p.name = 'Joe' THEN 'foo' ELSE 'bar' END IS NOT NULL THEN CASE WHEN p.name = 'Joe' THEN 'foo' ELSE 'bar' END ELSE 'baz' END FROM Person p
// Now is this:
// SELECT CASE WHEN p.name IS NOT NULL AND CASE WHEN p.name = 'Joe' THEN 'foo' ELSE 'bar' END IS NOT NULL THEN CASE WHEN p.name = 'Joe' THEN 'foo' ELSE 'bar' END ELSE 'baz' END FROM Person p
The ==, !=, and .equals methods can be used to compare regular types as well Option types in a scala-idiomatic way.
That is to say, either T == T or Option[T] == Option[T] is supported and the following "truth-table" is observed:
| Left | Right | Equality | Result |

case class Node(id:Int, status:Option[String], otherStatus:Option[String])
val q = quote { query[Node].filter(n => n.id == 123) }

ctx.run(q)
// SELECT n.id, n.status, n.otherStatus FROM node n WHERE n.status IS NULL OR n.status <> 'RUNNING'If you would like to use an equality operator that follows that ansi-idiomatic approach, failing
the comparison if either side is null as well as the principle that null = null := false, you can import === (and =!=)
from Context.extras. These operators work across T and Option[T] allowing comparisons like T === Option[T],
Option[T] == T etc... to be made. You can use also ===
directly in Scala code and it will have the same behavior, returning false when other the left-hand
or right-hand side is None. This is particularity useful in paradigms like Spark where
you will typically transition inside and outside of Quill code.
When using
a === bora =!= bsometimes you will see the extraa IS NOT NULL AND b IS NOT NULLcomparisons and sometimes you will not. This depends onequalityBehaviorinSqlIdiomwhich determines whether the given SQL dialect already does ansi-idiomatic comparison toa, andbwhen an=operator is used, this allows us to omit the extraa IS NOT NULL AND b IS NOT NULL.
import ctx.extras._
// === works the same way inside of a quotation
val q = run( query[Node].filter(n => n.status === "RUNNING") )
// SELECT n.id, n.status FROM node n WHERE n.status IS NOT NULL AND n.status = 'RUNNING'
// as well as outside
(nodes:List[Node]).filter(n => n.status === "RUNNING")As we have seen in the examples above, only the map and flatMap methods are available on outer-joined tables
(i.e. tables wrapped in an Option object).
Since you cannot use Option[Table].isDefined, if you want to null-check a whole table
(e.g. if a left-join was not matched), you have to map to a specific field on which you can do the null-check.
val q = quote {
query[Company].leftJoin(query[Address])
.on((c, a) => c.zip == a.zip) // Row type is (Company, Option[Address])
.filter({case(c,a) => a.isDefined}) // You cannot null-check a whole table!
}Instead, map the row-variable to a specific field and then check that field.
val q = quote {
query[Company].leftJoin(query[Address])
.on((c, a) => c.zip == a.zip) // Row type is (Company, Option[Address])
.filter({case(c,a) => a.map(_.street).isDefined}) // Null-check a non-nullable field instead
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT c.name, c.zip, a.fk, a.street, a.zip
// FROM Company c
// LEFT JOIN Address a ON c.zip = a.zip
// WHERE a.street IS NOT NULLFinally, it is worth noting that a whole table can be wrapped into an Option object. This is particularly
useful when doing a union on table-sets that are both right-joined and left-joined together.
val aCompanies = quote {
for {
c <- query[Company] if (c.name like "A%")
a <- query[Address].join(_.zip == c.zip)
} yield (c, Option(a)) // change (Company, Address) to (Company, Option[Address])
}
val bCompanies = quote {
for {
c <- query[Company] if (c.name like "A%")
a <- query[Address].leftJoin(_.zip == c.zip)
} yield (c, a) // (Company, Option[Address])

val union = quote {
aCompanies union bCompanies

}
}
ctx.run(q)

- The Ad-Hoc Case Class can only have one constructor with one set of parameters.
- The Ad-Hoc Case Class must be constructed inside the quotation using one of the following methods:
- Using the
newkeyword:new Person("Joe", "Bloggs") - Using a companion object's apply method:
Person("Joe", "Bloggs") - Using a companion object's apply method explicitly:
Person.apply("Joe", "Bloggs")
- Using the

Query probing validates queries against the database at compile time, failing the compilation if it is not valid. The query validation does not alter the database state.
This feature is disabled by default. To enable it, mix the QueryProbing trait to the database configuration:
object myContext extends YourContextType with QueryProbing
The context must be created in a separate compilation unit in order to be loaded at compile time. Please use this guide that explains how to create a separate compilation unit for macros, that also serves to the purpose of defining a query-probing-capable context. context could be used instead of macros as the name of the separate compilation unit.
The configurations correspondent to the config key must be available at compile time. You can achieve it by adding this line to your project settings:
unmanagedClasspath in Compile += baseDirectory.value / "src" / "main" / "resources"
If your project doesn't have a standard layout, e.g. a play project, you should configure the path to point to the folder that contains your config file.
Database actions are defined using quotations as well. These actions don't have a collection-like API but rather a custom DSL to express inserts, deletes, and updates.

Quill provides an IO monad that allows the user to express multiple computations and execute them separately. This mechanism is also known as a free monad, which provides a way of expressing computations as referentially-transparent values and isolates the unsafe IO operations into a single operation. For instance:
// this code using Future
case class Person(id: Int, name: String, age: Int)
val p = Person(0, "John", 22)
ctx.run(query[Person].insert(lift(p))).flatMap { _ =>
ctx.run(query[Person])
}
// isn't referentially transparent because if you refactor the second database
// interaction into a value, the result will be different:
val allPeople = ctx.run(query[Person])
ctx.run(query[Person].insert(lift(p))).flatMap { _ =>
allPeople
}
// this happens because `ctx.run` executes the side-effect (database IO) immediately// The IO monad doesn't perform IO immediately, so both computations:
val p = Person(0, "John", 22)
val a =
ctx.runIO(query[Person].insert(lift(p))).flatMap { _ =>
ctx.runIO(query[Person])
}
val allPeople = ctx.runIO(query[Person])
val b =
ctx.runIO(query[Person].insert(lift(p))).flatMap { _ =>
allPeople
}
// produce the same result when executed
performIO(a) == performIO(b)The IO monad has an interface similar to Future; please refer to the class for more information regarding the available operations.
The return type of performIO varies according to the context. For instance, async contexts return Futures while JDBC returns values synchronously.
NOTE: Avoid using the variable name io since it conflicts with Quill's package io.getquill, otherwise you will get the following error.
recursive value io needs type
IO also provides the transactional method that delimits a transaction:
val a =
ctx.runIO(query[Person].insert(lift(p))).flatMap { _ =>
ctx.runIO(query[Person])
}
performIO(a.transactional) // note: transactional can be used outside of `performIO`Quill JDBC Contexts allow you to use prepare in order to get a low-level ResultSet that is useful
for interacting with legacy APIs. This function returns a f: (Connection) => (PreparedStatement)
closure as opposed to a PreparedStatement in order to guarantee that JDBC Exceptions are not
thrown until you can wrap them into the appropriate Exception-handling mechanism (e.g.
try/catch, Try etc...).
val q = quote {
query[Product].filter(_.id == 1)
}
val preparer: (Connection) => (PreparedStatement) = ctx.prepare(q)
// SELECT x1.id, x1.description, x1.sku FROM Product x1 WHERE x1.id = 1
// Use ugly stateful code, bracketed effects, or try-with-resources here:
var preparedStatement: PreparedStatement = _
var resultSet: ResultSet = _
try {
preparedStatement = preparer(myCustomDataSource.getConnection)
resultSet = preparedStatement.executeQuery()
} catch {
case e: Exception =>
// Close the preparedStatement and catch possible exceptions
// Close the resultSet and catch possible exceptions
}The prepare function can also be used with insert, and update queries.
val q = quote {
query[Product].insert(lift(Product(1, "Desc", 123))
}
val preparer: (Connection) => (PreparedStatement) = ctx.prepare(q)
// INSERT INTO Product (id,description,sku) VALUES (?, ?, ?)As well as with batch queries.
Make sure to first quote your batch query and then pass the result into the
preparefunction (as is done in the example below) or the Scala compiler may not type the output correctly #1518.
val q = quote {
liftQuery(products).foreach(e => query[Product].insert(e))
}
val preparers: Connection => List[PreparedStatement] = ctx.prepare(q)
val preparedStatement: List[PreparedStatement] = preparers(jdbcConf.dataSource.getConnection)The IO monad tracks the effects that a computation performs in its second type parameter:
val a: IO[ctx.RunQueryResult[Person], Effect.Write with Effect.Read] =
ctx.runIO(query[Person].insert(lift(p))).flatMap { _ =>
ctx.runIO(query[Person])
}This mechanism is useful to limit the kind of operations that can be performed. See this blog post as an example.
Quill provides implicit conversions from case class companion objects to query[T] through an additional trait:
val ctx = new SqlMirrorContext(MirrorSqlDialect, Literal) with ImplicitQuery
import ctx._
val q = quote {
for {
p <- Person if(p.id == 999)
c <- Contact if(c.personId == p.id)
} yield {
(p.name, c.phone)
}
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.name, c.phone FROM Person p, Contact c WHERE (p.id = 999) AND (c.personId = p.id)Note the usage of Person and Contact instead of query[Person] and query[Contact].
Some operations are SQL-specific and not provided with the generic quotation mechanism. The SQL contexts provide implicit classes for this kind of operation:
val ctx = new SqlMirrorContext(MirrorSqlDialect, Literal)
import ctx._val q = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.name like "%John%")
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.id, p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.name like '%John%'val q = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.name == "Mary").forUpdate()
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT p.id, p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.name = 'Mary' FOR UPDATEQuill provides SQL Arrays support. In Scala we represent them as any collection that implements Seq:
import java.util.Date
case class Book(id: Int, notes: List[String], pages: Vector[Int], history: Seq[Date])
ctx.run(query[Book])
// SELECT x.id, x.notes, x.pages, x.history FROM Book xNote that not all drivers/databases provides such feature hence only PostgresJdbcContext and
PostgresAsyncContext support SQL Arrays.
val ctx = new CassandraMirrorContext(Literal)
import ctx._The Cassandra context provides List, Set, and Map encoding:
case class Book(id: Int, notes: Set[String], pages: List[Int], history: Map[Int, Boolean])
ctx.run(query[Book])
// SELECT id, notes, pages, history FROM BookThe cassandra context provides encoding of UDT (user-defined types).
case class Name(firstName: String, lastName: String) extends UdtTo encode the UDT and bind it into the query (insert/update queries), the context needs to retrieve UDT metadata from
the cluster object. By default, the context looks for UDT metadata within the currently logged keyspace, but it's also possible to specify a
concrete keyspace with udtMeta:
implicit val nameMeta = udtMeta[Name]("keyspace2.my_name")When a keyspace is not set in udtMeta then the currently logged one is used.
Since it's possible to create a context without specifying a keyspace, (e.g. the keyspace parameter is null and the session is not bound to any keyspace), the UDT metadata will be resolved throughout the entire cluster.
It is also possible to rename UDT columns with udtMeta:
implicit val nameMeta = udtMeta[Name]("name", _.firstName -> "first", _.lastName -> "last")The cassandra context also provides a few additional operations:
val q = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.age > 10).allowFiltering
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT id, name, age FROM Person WHERE age > 10 ALLOW FILTERINGval q = quote {
query[Person].insert(_.age -> 10, _.name -> "John").ifNotExists
}
ctx.run(q)
// INSERT INTO Person (age,name) VALUES (10, 'John') IF NOT EXISTSval q = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.name == "John").delete.ifExists
}
ctx.run(q)
// DELETE FROM Person WHERE name = 'John' IF EXISTSval q1 = quote {
query[Person].insert(_.age -> 10, _.name -> "John").usingTimestamp(99)
}
ctx.run(q1)
// INSERT INTO Person (age,name) VALUES (10, 'John') USING TIMESTAMP 99
val q2 = quote {
query[Person].usingTimestamp(99).update(_.age -> 10)
}
ctx.run(q2)
// UPDATE Person USING TIMESTAMP 99 SET age = 10val q1 = quote {

}

// INSERT INTO Person (age,name) VALUES (10, 'John') USING TTL 11
val q2 = quote {
query[Person].usingTtl(11).update(_.age -> 10)
}
ctx.run(q2)
// UPDATE Person USING TTL 11 SET age = 10
val q3 = quote {
query[Person].usingTtl(11).filter(_.name == "John").delete
}
ctx.run(q3)
// DELETE FROM Person USING TTL 11 WHERE name = 'John'val q1 = quote {
query[Person].insert(_.age -> 10, _.name -> "John").using(ts = 99, ttl = 11)
}
ctx.run(q1)
// INSERT INTO Person (age,name) VALUES (10, 'John') USING TIMESTAMP 99 AND TTL 11
val q2 = quote {
query[Person].using(ts = 99, ttl = 11).update(_.age -> 10)
}
ctx.run(q2)
// UPDATE Person USING TIMESTAMP 99 AND TTL 11 SET age = 10
val q3 = quote {
query[Person].using(ts = 99, ttl = 11).filter(_.name == "John").delete
}
ctx.run(q3)
// DELETE FROM Person USING TIMESTAMP 99 AND TTL 11 WHERE name = 'John'val q1 = quote {
query[Person].update(_.age -> 10).ifCond(_.name == "John")
}
ctx.run(q1)
// UPDATE Person SET age = 10 IF name = 'John'
val q2 = quote {
query[Person].filter(_.name == "John").delete.ifCond(_.age == 10)
}
ctx.run(q2)
// DELETE FROM Person WHERE name = 'John' IF age = 10val q = quote {
query[Person].map(p => p.age).delete
}
ctx.run(q)
// DELETE p.age FROM Personrequires allowFiltering
val q = quote {
query[Book].filter(p => p.pages.contains(25)).allowFiltering
}
ctx.run(q)

val q = quote {
query[Book].filter(p => p.history.contains(12)).allowFiltering
}

// SELECT id, notes, pages, history FROM book WHERE history CONTAINS 12 ALLOW FILTERINGrequires allowFiltering
val q = quote {
query[Book].filter(p => p.history.containsValue(true)).allowFiltering
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT id, notes, pages, history FROM book WHERE history CONTAINS true ALLOW FILTERINGQuill's default operation mode is compile-time, but there are queries that have their structure defined only at runtime. Quill automatically falls back to runtime normalization and query generation if the query's structure is not static. Example:
val ctx = new SqlMirrorContext(MirrorSqlDialect, Literal)
import ctx._
sealed trait QueryType
case object Minor extends QueryType
case object Senior extends QueryType
def people(t: QueryType): Quoted[Query[Person]] =
t match {
case Minor => quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.age < 18)
}
case Senior => quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.age > 65)
}
}
ctx.run(people(Minor))
// SELECT p.id, p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.age < 18
ctx.run(people(Senior))
// SELECT p.id, p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.age > 65Additionally, Quill provides a separate query API to facilitate the creation of dynamic queries. This API allows users to easily manipulate quoted values instead of working only with quoted transformations.
Important: A few of the dynamic query methods accept runtime string values. It's important to keep in mind that these methods could be a vector for SQL injection.
Let's use the filter transformation as an example. In the regular API, this method has no implementation since it's an abstract member of a trait:
def filter(f: T => Boolean): EntityQuery[T]
In the dynamic API, filter is has a different signature and a body that is executed at runtime:
def filter(f: Quoted[T] => Quoted[Boolean]): DynamicQuery[T] =
transform(f, Filter)
It takes a Quoted[T] as input and produces a Quoted[Boolean]. The user is free to use regular scala code within the transformation:
def people(onlyMinors: Boolean) =
dynamicQuery[Person].filter(p => if(onlyMinors) quote(p.age < 18) else quote(true))In order to create a dynamic query, use one of the following methods:
dynamicQuery[Person]
dynamicQuerySchema[Person]("people", alias(_.name, "pname"))It's also possible to transform a Quoted into a dynamic query:
val q = quote {
query[Person]
}
q.dynamic.filter(p => quote(p.name == "John"))The dynamic query API is very similar to the regular API but has a few differences:
Queries
// schema queries use `alias` instead of tuples
dynamicQuerySchema[Person]("people", alias(_.name, "pname"))
// this allows users to use a dynamic list of aliases
val aliases = List(alias[Person](_.name, "pname"), alias[Person](_.age, "page"))
dynamicQuerySchema[Person]("people", aliases:_*)
// a few methods have an overload with the `Opt` suffix,
// which apply the transformation only if the option is defined:
def people(minAge: Option[Int]) =
dynamicQuery[Person].filterOpt(minAge)((person, minAge) => quote(person.age >= minAge))
def people(maxRecords: Option[Int]) =
dynamicQuery[Person].takeOpt(maxRecords)
def people(dropFirst: Option[Int]) =
dynamicQuery[Person].dropOpt(dropFirst)
// method with `If` suffix, for better chaining
def people(userIds: Seq[Int]) =
dynamicQuery[Person].filterIf(userIds.nonEmpty)(person => quote(liftQuery(userIds).contains(person.id)))Actions
// actions use `set`
dynamicQuery[Person].filter(_.id == 1).update(set(_.name, quote("John")))
// or `setValue` if the value is not quoted
dynamicQuery[Person].insert(setValue(_.name, "John"))
// or `setOpt` that will be applied only the option is defined
dynamicQuery[Person].insert(setOpt(_.name, Some("John")))
// it's also possible to use a runtime string value as the column name
dynamicQuery[Person].filter(_.id == 1).update(set("name", quote("John")))
// to insert or update a case class instance, use `insertValue`/`updateValue`
val p = Person(0, "John", 21)
dynamicQuery[Person].insertValue(p)
dynamicQuery[Person].filter(_.id == 1).updateValue(p)Quill is super fast for static queries (almost zero runtime overhead compared to directly sql executing).
But there is significant impact for dynamic queries.
Normalization caching was introduced to improve the situation, which will speedup dynamic queries significantly. It is enabled by default.
To disable dynamic normalization caching, pass following property to sbt during compile time
sbt -Dquill.query.cacheDaynamic=false
Infix is a very flexible mechanism to use non-supported features without having to use plain queries in the target language. It allows the insertion of arbitrary strings within quotations.
For instance, quill doesn't support the FOR UPDATE SQL feature. It can still be used through infix and implicit classes:
implicit class ForUpdate[T](q: Query[T]) {
def forUpdate = quote(infix"$q FOR UPDATE".as[Query[T]])
}
val a = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.age < 18).forUpdate
}
ctx.run(a)
// SELECT p.name, p.age FROM person p WHERE p.age < 18 FOR UPDATEThe forUpdate quotation can be reused for multiple queries.
Queries that contain infix will generally not be flattened since it is not assumed that the contents
of the infix are a pure function.
Since SQL is typically less performant when there are many nested queries, be careful with the use of
infixin queries that have multiplemap+filterclauses.
case class Data(id: Int)
case class DataAndRandom(id: Int, value: Int)
// This should be alright:
val q = quote {
query[Data].map(e => DataAndRandom(e.id, infix"RAND()".as[Int])).filter(r => r.value <= 10)
}
run(q)
// SELECT e.id, e.value FROM (SELECT RAND() AS value, e.id AS id FROM Data e) AS e WHERE e.value <= 10
// This might not be:
val q = quote {
query[Data]
.map(e => DataAndRandom(e.id, infix"SOME_UDF(${e.id})".as[Int]))
.filter(r => r.value <= 10)
.map(e => DataAndRandom(e.id, infix"SOME_OTHER_UDF(${e.value})".as[Int]))
.filter(r => r.value <= 100)
}
// Produces too many layers of nesting!
run(q)
// SELECT e.id, e.value FROM (
// SELECT SOME_OTHER_UDF(e.value) AS value, e.id AS id FROM (
// SELECT SOME_UDF(e.id) AS value, e.id AS id FROM Data e
// ) AS e WHERE e.value <= 10
// ) AS e WHERE e.value <= 100If you are sure that the the content of your infix is a pure function, you canse use the pure method
in order to indicate to Quill that the infix clause can be copied in the query. This gives Quill much
more leeway to flatten your query, possibly improving performance.
val q = quote {
query[Data]
.map(e => DataAndRandom(e.id, infix"SOME_UDF(${e.id})".pure.as[Int]))
.filter(r => r.value <= 10)
.map(e => DataAndRandom(e.id, infix"SOME_OTHER_UDF(${e.value})".pure.as[Int]))
.filter(r => r.value <= 100)
}
// Copying SOME_UDF and SOME_OTHER_UDF allows the query to be completely flattened.
run(q)
// SELECT e.id, SOME_OTHER_UDF(SOME_UDF(e.id)) FROM Data e
// WHERE SOME_UDF(e.id) <= 10 AND SOME_OTHER_UDF(SOME_UDF(e.id)) <= 100Use infix"...".asCondition to express an infix that represents a conditional expression.
When synthesizing queries for databases which do not have proper boolean-type support (e.g. SQL Server,
Oracle etc...) boolean infix clauses inside projections must become values.
Typically this requires a CASE WHERE ... END.
Take the following example:
case class Node(name: String, isUp: Boolean, uptime:Long)
case class Status(name: String, allowed: Boolean)
val allowedStatus:Boolean = getState
quote {
query[Node].map(n => Status(n.name, n.isUp == lift(allowedStatus)))
}
run(q)
// This is invalid in most databases:
// SELECT n.name, n.isUp = ?, uptime FROM Node n
// It will be converted to this:
// SELECT n.name, CASE WHEN (n.isUp = ?) THEN 1 ELSE 0, uptime FROM Node nHowever, in certain cases, infix clauses that express conditionals should actually represent boolean expressions for example:
case class Node(name: String, isUp: Boolean)
val maxUptime:Boolean = getState
quote {
query[Node].filter(n => infix"${n.uptime} > ${lift(maxUptime)}".as[Boolean])
}
run(q)
// Should be this:
// SELECT n.name, n.isUp, n.uptime WHERE n.uptime > ?
// However since infix"...".as[Boolean] is treated as a Boolean Value (as opposed to an expression) it will be converted to this:
// SELECT n.name, n.isUp, n.uptime WHERE 1 == n.uptime > ?In order to avoid this problem, use infix"...".asCondition so that Quill understands that the boolean is an expression:
quote {
query[Node].filter(n => infix"${n.uptime} > ${lift(maxUptime)}".asCondition)
}
run(q) // SELECT n.name, n.isUp, n.uptime WHERE n.uptime > ?Infix supports runtime string values through the #$ prefix. Example:
def test(functionName: String) =
ctx.run(query[Person].map(p => infix"#$functionName(${p.name})".as[Int]))You can use implicit extensions in quill in several ways.
implicit class Ext(q: Query[Person]) {
def olderThan(age: Int) = quote {
query[Person].filter(p => p.age > lift(age))
}
}
run(query[Person].olderThan(44))
// SELECT p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.age > ?implicit class Ext(q: Query[Person]) {
def olderThan = quote {
(age: Int) =>
query[Person].filter(p => p.age > lift(age))
}
}
run(query[Person].olderThan(44))
// SELECT p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.age > 44
run(query[Person].olderThan(lift(44)))
// SELECT p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.age > ?The advantage of this approach is that you can choose to either lift or use a constant.
Just as Query can be extended, scalar values can be similarly extended.
implicit class Ext(i: Int) {
def between = quote {
(a: Int, b:Int) =>
i > a && i < b
}
}
run(query[Person].filter(p => p.age.between(33, 44)))
// SELECT p.name, p.age FROM Person p WHERE p.age > 33 AND p.age < 44You can also use infix to port raw SQL queries to Quill and map it to regular Scala tuples.
val rawQuery = quote {
(id: Int) => infix"""SELECT id, name FROM my_entity WHERE id = $id""".as[Query[(Int, String)]]
}
ctx.run(rawQuery(1))
//SELECT x._1, x._2 FROM (SELECT id AS "_1", name AS "_2" FROM my_entity WHERE id = 1) xNote that in this case the result query is nested.
It's required since Quill is not aware of a query tree and cannot safely unnest it.
This is different from the example above because infix starts with the query infix"$q... where its tree is already compiled
A custom database function can also be used through infix:
val myFunction = quote {
(i: Int) => infix"MY_FUNCTION($i)".as[Int]
}
val q = quote {
query[Person].map(p => myFunction(p.age))
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT MY_FUNCTION(p.age) FROM Person pYou can implement comparison operators by defining implicit conversion and using infix.
import java.util.Date
implicit class DateQuotes(left: Date) {
def >(right: Date) = quote(infix"$left > $right".as[Boolean])
def <(right: Date) = quote(infix"$left < $right".as[Boolean])
}implicit class OnDuplicateKeyIgnore[T](q: Insert[T]) {
def ignoreDuplicate = quote(infix"$q ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE id=id".as[Insert[T]])
}
ctx.run(
liftQuery(List(
Person(1, "Test1", 30),
Person(2, "Test2", 31)
)).foreach(row => query[Person].insert(row).ignoreDuplicate)
)Quill uses Encoders to encode query inputs and Decoders to read values returned by queries. The library provides a few built-in encodings and two mechanisms to define custom encodings: mapped encoding and raw encoding.
If the correspondent database type is already supported, use MappedEncoding. In this example, String is already supported by Quill and the UUID encoding from/to String is defined through mapped encoding:
import ctx._
import java.util.UUID
implicit val encodeUUID = MappedEncoding[UUID, String](_.toString)
implicit val decodeUUID = MappedEncoding[String, UUID](UUID.fromString(_))A mapped encoding also can be defined without a context instance by importing io.getquill.MappedEncoding:
import io.getquill.MappedEncoding
import java.util.UUID
implicit val encodeUUID = MappedEncoding[UUID, String](_.toString)
implicit val decodeUUID = MappedEncoding[String, UUID](UUID.fromString(_))Note that can it be also used to provide mapping for element types of collection (SQL Arrays or Cassandra Collections).
If the database type is not supported by Quill, it is possible to provide "raw" encoders and decoders:
trait UUIDEncodingExample {
val jdbcContext: PostgresJdbcContext[Literal] // your context should go here
import jdbcContext._
implicit val uuidDecoder: Decoder[UUID] =
decoder((index, row) =>
UUID.fromString(row.getObject(index).toString)) // database-specific implementation
implicit val uuidEncoder: Encoder[UUID] =
encoder(java.sql.Types.OTHER, (index, value, row) =>
row.setObject(index, value, java.sql.Types.OTHER)) // database-specific implementation
// Only for postgres
implicit def arrayUUIDEncoder[Col <: Seq[UUID]]: Encoder[Col] = arrayRawEncoder[UUID, Col]("uuid")
implicit def arrayUUIDDecoder[Col <: Seq[UUID]](implicit bf: CBF[UUID, Col]): Decoder[Col] =
arrayRawDecoder[UUID, Col]
}Quill automatically encodes AnyVals (value classes):
case class UserId(value: Int) extends AnyVal
case class User(id: UserId, name: String)
val q = quote {
for {
u <- query[User] if u.id == lift(UserId(1))
} yield u
}
ctx.run(q)
// SELECT u.id, u.name FROM User u WHERE (u.id = 1)The meta DSL allows the user to customize how Quill handles the expansion and execution of quotations through implicit meta instances.
By default, quill expands query[Person] to querySchema[Person]("Person"). It's possible to customize this behavior using an implicit instance of SchemaMeta:
def example = {
implicit val personSchemaMeta = schemaMeta[Person]("people", _.id -> "person_id")
ctx.run(query[Person])
// SELECT x.person_id, x.name, x.age FROM people x
}InsertMeta customizes the expansion of case classes for insert actions (query[Person].insert(p)). By default, all columns are expanded and through an implicit InsertMeta, it's possible to exclude columns from the expansion:
implicit val personInsertMeta = insertMeta[Person](_.id)
ctx.run(query[Person].insert(lift(Person(-1, "John", 22))))
// INSERT INTO Person (name,age) VALUES (?, ?)Note that the parameter of insertMeta is called exclude, but it isn't possible to use named parameters for macro invocations.
UpdateMeta customizes the expansion of case classes for update actions (query[Person].update(p)). By default, all columns are expanded, and through an implicit UpdateMeta, it's possible to exclude columns from the expansion:
implicit val personUpdateMeta = updateMeta[Person](_.id)
ctx.run(query[Person].filter(_.id == 1).update(lift(Person(1, "John", 22))))
// UPDATE Person SET name = ?, age = ? WHERE id = 1Note that the parameter of updateMeta is called exclude, but it isn't possible to use named parameters for macro invocations.
This kind of meta instance customizes the expansion of query types and extraction of the final value. For instance, it's possible to use this feature to normalize values before reading them from the database:
implicit val personQueryMeta =
queryMeta(
(q: Query[Person]) =>
q.map(p => (p.id, infix"CONVERT(${p.name} USING utf8)".as[String], p.age))
) {
case (id, name, age) =>
Person(id, name, age)
}The query meta definition is open and allows the user to even join values from other tables before reading the final value. This kind of usage is not encouraged.
Contexts represent the database and provide an execution interface for queries.
Quill provides a mirror context for testing purposes. Instead of running the query, the mirror context returns a structure with the information that would be used to run the query. There are three mirror context instances:
io.getquill.MirrorContext: Mirrors the quotation ASTio.getquill.SqlMirrorContext: Mirrors the SQL queryio.getquill.CassandraMirrorContext: Mirrors the CQL query
The context instance provides all methods and types to interact with quotations and the database. Depending on how the context import happens, Scala won't be able to infer that the types are compatible.
For instance, this example will not compile:
class MyContext extends SqlMirrorContext(MirrorSqlDialect, Literal)
case class MySchema(c: MyContext) {
import c._
val people = quote {
querySchema[Person]("people")
}
}
case class MyDao(c: MyContext, schema: MySchema) {
def allPeople =
c.run(schema.people)
// ERROR: [T](quoted: MyDao.this.c.Quoted[MyDao.this.c.Query[T]])MyDao.this.c.QueryResult[T]
cannot be applied to (MyDao.this.schema.c.Quoted[MyDao.this.schema.c.EntityQuery[Person]]{def quoted: io.getquill.ast.ConfiguredEntity; def ast: io.getquill.ast.ConfiguredEntity; def id1854281249(): Unit; val bindings: Object})
}
One way to compose applications with this kind of context is to use traits with an abstract context variable:
class MyContext extends SqlMirrorContext(MirrorSqlDialect, Literal)
trait MySchema {
val c: MyContext
import c._
val people = quote {
querySchema[Person]("people")
}
}
case class MyDao(c: MyContext) extends MySchema {
import c._
def allPeople =
c.run(people)
}Another simple way to modularize Quill code is by extending Context as a self-type and applying mixins. Using this strategy,
it is possible to create functionality that is fully portable across databases and even different types of databases
(e.g. creating common queries for both Postgres and Spark).
For example, create the following abstract context:
trait ModularContext[I <: Idiom, N <: NamingStrategy] { this: Context[I, N] =>
def peopleOlderThan = quote {
(age:Int, q:Query[Person]) => q.filter(p => p.age > age)
}
}Let's see how this can be used across different kinds of databases and Quill contexts.
// Note: In some cases need to explicitly specify [MirrorSqlDialect, Literal].
val ctx =
new SqlMirrorContext[MirrorSqlDialect, Literal](MirrorSqlDialect, Literal)
with ModularContext[MirrorSqlDialect, Literal]
import ctx._
println( run(peopleOlderThan(22, query[Person])).string )val ctx =
new PostgresJdbcContext[Literal](Literal, ds)
with ModularContext[PostgresDialect, Literal]
import ctx._
val results = run(peopleOlderThan(22, query[Person]))object CustomQuillSparkContext extends QuillSparkContext
with ModularContext[SparkDialect, Literal]
val results = run(peopleOlderThan(22, liftQuery(dataset)))Quill provides a fully type-safe way to use Spark's highly-optimized SQL engine. It's an alternative to Dataset's weakly-typed API.
libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
"io.getquill" %% "quill-spark" % "3.12.1-SNAPSHOT"
)
Unlike the other modules, the Spark context is a companion object. Also, it does not depend on a spark session. To use it, add the following import:
import org.apache.spark.sql.SparkSession
// Create your Spark Context
val session =
SparkSession.builder()
.master("local")
.appName("spark test")
.getOrCreate()
// The Spark SQL Context must be provided by the user through an implicit value:
implicit val sqlContext = session
import sqlContext.implicits._ // Also needed...
// Import the Quill Spark Context
import io.getquill.QuillSparkContext._Note Unlike the other modules, the Spark context is a companion object. Also, it does not depend on a spark session.
Also Note: Quill decoders and meta instances are not used by the quill-spark module, Spark's
Encoders are used instead.
The run method returns a Dataset transformed by the Quill query using the SQL engine.
// Typically you start with some type dataset.
val peopleDS: Dataset[Person] = spark.read.parquet("path/to/people")
val addressesDS: Dataset[Address] = spark.read.parquet("path/to/addresses")
// The liftQuery method converts Datasets to Quill queries:
val people: Query[Person] = quote { liftQuery(peopleDS) }
val addresses: Query[Address] = quote { liftQuery(addressesDS) }
val people: Query[(Person] = quote {
people.join(addresses).on((p, a) => p.id == a.ownerFk)
}
val peopleAndAddressesDS: Dataset[(Person, Address)] = run(people)Since the run method allows for Quill queries to be specified directly, and liftQuery can be used inside
of any Quoted block, you can shorten various steps of the above workflow:
val peopleDS: Dataset[Person] = spark.read.parquet("path/to/people")
val addressesDS: Dataset[Address] = spark.read.parquet("path/to/addresses")
val peopleAndAddressesDS: Dataset[(Person, Address)] = run {
liftQuery(peopleDS)
.join(liftQuery(addressesDS))
.on((p, a) => p.id == a.ownerFk)
}Here is an example of a Dataset being converted into Quill, filtered, and then written back out.
import org.apache.spark.sql.Dataset
def filter(myDataset: Dataset[Person], name: String): Dataset[Int] =
run {
liftQuery(myDataset).filter(_.name == lift(name)).map(_.age)
}
// SELECT x1.age _1 FROM (?) x1 WHERE x1.name = ?Due to the design of Quill-Spark, it can be used interchangeably throughout your Spark workflow:
- Lift a Dataset to Query to do some filtering and sub-selecting (with Predicate and Filter Pushdown!).

lazy val ctx = new MysqlJdbcContext(SnakeCase, "ctx")The SQL dialect parameter defines the specific database dialect to be used. Some context types are specific to a database and thus not require it.
Quill has five built-in dialects:
io.getquill.H2Dialectio.getquill.MySQLDialectio.getquill.PostgresDialectio.getquill.SqliteDialectio.getquill.SQLServerDialectio.getquill.OracleDialect
The naming strategy parameter defines the behavior when translating identifiers (table and column names) to SQL.
| strategy | example |
|---|---|
io.getquill.naming.Literal |
some_ident -> some_ident |
io.getquill.naming.Escape |
some_ident -> "some_ident" |
io.getquill.naming.UpperCase |
some_ident -> SOME_IDENT |
io.getquill.naming.LowerCase |
SOME_IDENT -> some_ident |
io.getquill.naming.SnakeCase |
someIdent -> some_ident |
io.getquill.naming.CamelCase |
some_ident -> someIdent |
io.getquill.naming.MysqlEscape |
some_ident -> `some_ident` |
io.getquill.naming.PostgresEscape |
$some_ident -> $some_ident |
Multiple transformations can be defined using NamingStrategy(). For instance, the naming strategy
NamingStrategy(SnakeCase, UpperCase)
produces the following transformation:
someIdent -> SOME_IDENT
The transformations are applied from left to right.
The string passed to the context is used as the key in order to obtain configurations using the typesafe config library.
Additionally, the contexts provide multiple constructors. For instance, with JdbcContext it's possible to specify a DataSource directly, without using the configuration:
def createDataSource: javax.sql.DataSource with java.io.Closeable = ???
lazy val ctx = new MysqlJdbcContext(SnakeCase, createDataSource)The quill-jdbc module provides a simple blocking JDBC context for standard use-cases. For transactions, the JDBC connection is kept in a thread-local variable.
Quill uses HikariCP for connection pooling. Please refer to HikariCP's documentation for a detailed explanation of the available configurations.
Note that there are dataSource configurations, that go under dataSource, like user and password, but some pool settings may go under the root config, like connectionTimeout.
The JdbcContext provides thread-local transaction support:
ctx.transaction {
ctx.run(query[Person].delete)
// other transactional code
}
The body of transaction can contain calls to other methods and multiple run calls since the transaction is propagated through a thread-local.

Quill context that executes JDBC queries inside of ZIO. Unlike most other contexts
that require passing in a java.sql.DataSource when the context is created, this context's
run methods return a ZIO that has a DataSource resource dependency.
Naturally, this should be provided later on in your application
(see ZioJdbc for helper methods that assist in doing this).
Since resource dependency is Has[DataSource] the result of a run call is ZIO[Has[DataSource], SQLException, T].
This means that if you have a DataSource object, you can just provide it!
def ds: DataSource = _
run(people).provide(Has(ds))Since most quill-zio methods return
ZIO[Has[DataSource], SQLException, T]the typeQIO[T]i.e. Quill-IO has been defined as an alias.For underlying-contexts (see below) that depend on
Has[Connection], the aliasQCIO[T](i.e. Quill-Connection-IO) has been defined forZIO[Has[Connection], SQLException, T].
Since in most JDBC use-cases, a connection-pool datasource (e.g. Hikari) is used,
constructor-methods fromPrefix, fromConfig, fromJdbcConfig are available on
DataSourceLayer to construct instances of a ZLayer[Any, SQLException, Has[DataSource]]
which can be easily used to provide a DataSource dependency.
You can use them like this:
import ZioJdbc._
val zioDs = DataSourceLayer.fromPrefix("testPostgresDB")
MyZioContext.run(query[Person]).provideCustomLayer(zioDS)If in some rare cases, you wish to provide a java.sql.Connection to a run method directly, you can delegate
to the underlying-context. This is a more low-level context whose run methods have a Has[Connection] resource.
Here is an example of how this can be done.
def conn: Connection = _ // If you are starting with a connection object
import io.getquill.context.ZioJdbc._
// Import encoders/decoders of the underlying context. Do not import quote/run/prepare methods to avoid conflicts.
import MyZioContext.underlying.{ quote => _, run => _, prepare => _, _ }
MyZioContext.underlying.run(people).provide(Has(conn))If you are working with an underlying-context and want to provide a DataSource instead of a connection,
you can use the onDataSource method. Note however that this is only needed when working with an underlying-context.
When working with a normal context, onDataSource is not available or necessary
(since for a normal contexts R will be Has[DataSource]).
val ds: DataSource = _
import io.getquill.context.ZioJdbc._
// Import encoders/decoders of the underlying context. Do not import quote/run/prepare methods to avoid conflicts.
import MyZioContext.underlying.{ quote => _, run => _, prepare => _, _ }
MyZioContext.underlying.run(people).onDataSource.provide(Has(ds))Also note that if you are using a Plain Scala app however, you will need to manually run it i.e. using zio.Runtime
Runtime.default.unsafeRun(MyZioContext.run(query[Person]).provideLayer(zioDS))
One additional useful pattern is to use import io.getquill.context.qzio.ImplicitSyntax.Implicit to provide
an implicit DataSource to one or multiple run(qry) calls in a context. This is very useful when creating
DAO patterns that will reuse a DataSource many times:
case class MyQueryService(ds: DataSource with Closeable) { // I.e. our DAO
import Ctx._
implicit val env = Implicit(Has(ds)) // This will be looked up in each `.implicitDS` call
val joes = Ctx.run(query[Person].filter(p => p.name == "Joe")).implicitDS
val jills = Ctx.run(query[Person].filter(p => p.name == "Jill")).implicitDS
val alexes = Ctx.run(query[Person].filter(p => p.name == "Alex")).implicitDS
}More examples of a Quill-JDBC-ZIO app quill-jdbc-zio/src/test/scala/io/getquill/examples.
The ZioJdbcContext can stream using zio.ZStream:
ctx.stream(query[Person]) // returns: ZStream[Has[Connection], Throwable, Person]
.run(Sink.collectAll).map(_.toList) // returns: ZIO[Has[Connection], Throwable, List[T]]
The ZioJdbcContexts provide support for transactions without needing thread-local storage or similar
because they propagate the resource dependency in the ZIO effect itself (i.e. the Has[Connection] in Zio[Has[Connection], _, _]).
As with the other contexts, if an exception is thrown anywhere inside a task or sub-task within a transaction block, the entire block
will be rolled back by the database.
Basic syntax:
val trans =
ctx.transaction {
for {
_ <- ctx.run(query[Person].delete)
_ <- ctx.run(query[Person].insert(Person("Joe", 123)))
p <- ctx.run(query[Person])
} yield p
} //returns: ZIO[Has[Connection], Throwable, List[Person]]
val result = Runtime.default.unsafeRun(trans.onDataSource.provide(ds)) //returns: List[Person]

The quill-jdbc-monix module integrates the Monix asynchronous programming framework with Quill,
supporting all of the database vendors of the quill-jdbc module.
The Quill Monix contexts encapsulate JDBC Queries and Actions into Monix Tasks
and also include support for streaming queries via Observable.
The MonixJdbcContext can stream using Monix Observables:
ctx.stream(query[Person]) // returns: Observable[Person]
.foreachL(println(_))
.runSyncUnsafe()
The MonixJdbcContext provides support for transactions by storing the connection into a Monix Local.
This process is designed to be completely transparent to the user. As with the other contexts,
if an exception is thrown anywhere inside a task or sub-task within a transaction block, the entire block
will be rolled back by the database.
Basic syntax:
val trans =
ctx.transaction {
for {
_ <- ctx.run(query[Person].delete)
_ <- ctx.run(query[Person].insert(Person("Joe", 123)))
p <- ctx.run(query[Person])
} yield p
} //returns: Task[List[Person]]
val result = trans.runSyncUnsafe() //returns: List[Person]
Streaming can also be done inside of transaction block so long as the result is converted to a task beforehand.
val trans =
ctx.transaction {
for {
_ <- ctx.run(query[Person].insert(Person("Joe", 123)))
ppl <- ctx
.stream(query[Person]) // Observable[Person]
.foldLeftL(List[Person]())({case (l, p) => p +: l}) // ... becomes Task[List[Person]]
} yield ppl
} //returns: Task[List[Person]]
val result = trans.runSyncUnsafe() //returns: List[Person]

The quill-async module provides simple async support for MySQL and Postgres databases.
The async module provides transaction support based on a custom implicit execution context:
ctx.transaction { implicit ec =>

Quill context that executes Cassandra queries inside of ZIO. Unlike most other contexts
that require passing in a Data Source, this context takes in a CassandraZioSession
as a resource dependency which can be provided later (see the CassandraZioSession object for helper methods

The resource dependency itself is just a Has[CassandraZioSession] hence run(qry) and other methods in this context will return
ZIO[Has[CassandraZioSession], Throwable, T]. The type CIO[T] i.e. Cassandra-IO is an alias for this.

.provide(Has(session))Various methods in the io.getquill.CassandraZioSession can assist in simplifying it's creation, for example, you can
provide a Config object instead of a CassandraZioSession like this:
val zioSessionLayer: ZLayer[Any, Throwable, Has[CassandraZioSession]] =
ZioCassandraSession.fromPrefix("testStreamDB")
run(query[Person])
.provideCustomLayer(zioSessionLayer)(Note that the resulting ZioCassandraSession has a closing bracket)
If you are using a Plain Scala app, you will need to manually run it e.g. using zio.Runtime
Runtime.default.unsafeRun(MyZioContext.run(query[Person]).provideCustomLayer(zioSessionLayer))One additional useful pattern is to use import io.getquill.context.qzio.ImplicitSyntax.Implicit to provide
an implicit CassandraZioSession to one or multiple run(qry) calls in a context. This is very useful when creating
DAO patterns that will reuse a CassandraZioSession many times:
case class MyQueryService(cs: CassandraZioSession) {
import Ctx._
implicit val env = Implicit(Has(cs))
def joes = Ctx.run { query[Person].filter(p => p.name == "Joe") }.implicitly
def jills = Ctx.run { query[Person].filter(p => p.name == "Jill") }.implicitly
def alexes = Ctx.run { query[Person].filter(p => p.name == "Alex") }.implicitly

Quill now has a highly customizable code generator. Currently, it only supports JDBC but it will soon be extended to other contexts. With a minimal amount of configuration, the code generator takes schemas like this:
-- Using schema 'public'
create table public.Person (
id int primary key auto_increment,
first_name varchar(255),
last_name varchar(255),
age int not null
);
create table public.Address (
person_fk int not null,
street varchar(255),
zip int
);Producing objects like this:
// src/main/scala/com/my/project/public/Person.scala
package com.my.project.public
case class Person(id: Int, firstName: Option[String], lastName: Option[String], age: Int)// src/main/scala/com/my/project/public/Address.scala
package com.my.project.public
case class Address(personFk: Int, street: Option[String], zip: Option[Int])Have a look at the CODEGEN.md manual page for more details.

To disable logging of queries during compilation use quill.macro.log option:
sbt -Dquill.macro.log=false
Quill uses SLF4J for logging. Each context logs queries which are currently executed.
It also logs the list of parameters that are bound into a prepared statement if any.
To enable that use quill.binds.log option:
java -Dquill.binds.log=true -jar myapp.jar
Quill can pretty print compile-time produced queries by leveraging a great library
produced by @vertical-blank which is compatible
with both Scala and ScalaJS. To enable this feature use the quill.macro.log.pretty option:
sbt -Dquill.macro.log.pretty=true
Before:
[info] /home/me/project/src/main/scala/io/getquill/MySqlTestPerson.scala:20:18: SELECT p.id, p.name, p.age, a.ownerFk, a.street, a.state, a.zip FROM Person p INNER JOIN Address a ON a.ownerFk = p.id
After:
[info] /home/me/project/src/main/scala/io/getquill/MySqlTestPerson.scala:20:18:
[info] | SELECT
[info] | p.id,
