In cases where the same connection (from model A to model B along the
same field) was needed multiple times in a select_related query, the
join setup code mistakenly reused an existing join.
If LEFT JOINs are required for correct results, then trimming the join
can lead to incorrect results. Consider case:
TBL A: ID | TBL B: ID A_ID
1 1 1
2
Now A.order_by('b__a') did use a join to B, and B's a_id column. This
was seen to contain the same value as A's id, and so the join was
trimmed. But this wasn't correct as the join is LEFT JOIN, and for row
A.id = 2 the B.a_id column is NULL.
The bug was already fixed by 01b9c3d519,
so only tests added.
At the same time promote_joins()'s uncoditional flag is gone, it isn't
needed for anything any more.
All Promise objects were passed to force_text() deep in ORM query code.
Not only does this make it difficult or impossible for developers to
prevent or alter this behaviour, but it is also wrong for non-text
fields.
This commit changes `Field.get_prep_value()` from a no-op to one that
resolved Promise objects. All subclasses now call super() method first
to ensure that they have a real value to work with.
In the combination of .values().aggregate() the aggregate_select_mask
didn't include the aggregates added. This resulted in bogus query.
Thanks to Trac alias debanshuk for report.
There were a couple of places which used Query.join() directly. By
using setup_joins() in these places the code is more DRY, and in
addition there is no need to directly call field.get_joining_columns()
unless the field is the given join_field from get_path_info(). This
makes it easier to make sure a ForeignObject subclass generates joins
correctly in all cases.
The join used by select_related was incorrectly INNER when the query
had an ORed filter for nullable join that was trimmed away. Fixed this
by forcing the join type to LOUTER even when a join was trimmed away
in ORed queries.
The patch for #19385 caused a regression in certain generic relations
.exclude() filters if a subquery was needed. The fix contains a
refactoring to how Query.split_exclude() and Query.trim_start()
interact.
Thanks to Trac alias nferrari for the report.
Correctly calculate the ``aggregate_start`` offset from loaded fields,
if any are deferred, instead of ``self.query.select`` which includes all
fields on the model.
Also made some PEP 8 fixes.
The SubqueryConstraint defined relabeled_clone(), but that was never
called. Instead there is now clone() and relabel_aliases() methods for
SubqueryConstraint.
A related problem was that SubqueryConstraint didn't correctly use
quote_name_unless_alias() of the outer query. This resulted in failures
when running under PostgreSQL.
The sql/query.py add_q method did a lot of where/having tree hacking to
get complex queries to work correctly. The logic was refactored so that
it should be simpler to understand. The new logic should also produce
leaner WHERE conditions.
The changes cascade somewhat, as some other parts of Django (like
add_filter() and WhereNode) expect boolean trees in certain format or
they fail to work. So to fix the add_q() one must fix utils/tree.py,
some things in add_filter(), WhereNode and so on.
This commit also fixed add_filter to see negate clauses up the path.
A query like .exclude(Q(reversefk__in=a_list)) didn't work similarly to
.filter(~Q(reversefk__in=a_list)). The reason for this is that only
the immediate parent negate clauses were seen by add_filter, and thus a
tree like AND: (NOT AND: (AND: condition)) will not be handled
correctly, as there is one intermediary AND node in the tree. The
example tree is generated by .exclude(~Q(reversefk__in=a_list)).
Still, aggregation lost connectors in OR cases, and F() objects and
aggregates in same filter clause caused GROUP BY problems on some
databases.
Fixed#17600, fixed#13198, fixed#17025, fixed#17000, fixed#11293.
Before there was need to have both .relabel_aliases() and .clone() for
many structs. Now there is only relabeled_clone() for those structs
where alias is the only mutable attribute.
There were a couple of errors in ._dirty flag handling:
* It started as None, but was never reset to None.
* The _dirty flag was sometimes used to indicate if the connection
was inside transaction management, but this was not done
consistently. This also meant the flag had three separate values.
* The None value had a special meaning, causing for example inability
to commit() on new connection unless enter/leave tx management was
done.
* The _dirty was tracking "connection in transaction" state, but only
in managed transactions.
* Some tests never reset the transaction state of the used connection.
* And some additional less important changes.
This commit has some potential for regressions, but as the above list
shows, the current situation isn't perfect either.
There was a regression in case two models inherited the same parent,
and one contained a foreign key to other. When select_related travelled
the foreign key the other model reused the parent join made by the
first model. This was likely caused by Query.join_parent_model()
addition in commit 68985db482.
Thanks to Trac alias loic84 for report & tests.
The join promote=True was over-aggressive in select_related handling.
After that was removed, the only other user was query.combine(). That
use case is very easy to handle locally, so there is no more need for
the join(promote=True) flag.
Refs #19849.
The refactoring mainly concentrates on making sure the inner and outer
query agree about the split position. The split position is where the
multijoin happens, and thus the split position also determines the
columns used in the "WHERE col1 IN (SELECT col2 from ...)" condition.
This commit fixes a regression caused by #10790 and commit
69597e5bcc. The regression was caused
by wrong cols in the split position.
