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.
Thanks Carl Meyer for the review.

value_annotation isn't very well defined. Before this change, setting it
to datetime.datetime could silently reverse the behavior of isnull
lookups. This commit doesn't have any consequences on the current code.
It's just a safeguard for future ORM hackers.
Previously it was possible to call clear_ordering without the
force_empty argument. The result was that the query was still ordered
by model's meta ordering if that was defined. By making the arg
mandatory it will be easier to spot possible errors caused by assuming
clear_ordering will remove all ordering.
Thanks to Dylan Klomparens for the suggestion. Refs #19720.
The original problem was that queryset cloning was really expensive
when filtering with F() clauses. The __deepcopy__ went too deep copying
_meta attributes of the models used. To fix this the use of
__deepcopy__ in qs cloning was removed.
This commit results in some speed improvements across the djangobench
benchmark suite. Most query_* tests are 20-30% faster, save() is 50%
faster and finally complex filtering situations can see 2x to order
of magnitude improvments.
Thanks to Suor, Alex and lrekucki for valuable feedback.
The guarantee that no queries will be made when accessing results is
done by new EmptyWhere class which is used for query.where and having.
Thanks to Simon Charette for reviewing and valuable suggestions.
The added promotion logic is based on promoting any joins used in only
some of the childs of an OR clause unless the join existed before the
OR clause addition.
The ORM didn't reuse joins for direct foreign key traversals when using
chained filters. For example:
qs.filter(fk__somefield=1).filter(fk__somefield=2))
produced two joins.
As a bonus, reverse onetoone filters can now reuse joins correctly
The regression was caused by the join() method refactor in commit
68847135bc
Thanks for Simon Charette for spotting some issues with the first draft
of the patch.
This is a rather large refactoring. The "lookup traversal" code was
splitted out from the setup_joins. There is now names_to_path() method
which does the lookup traveling, the actual work of setup_joins() is
calling names_to_path() and then adding the joins found into the query.
As a side effect it was possible to remove the "process_extra"
functionality used by genric relations. This never worked for left
joins. Now the extra restriction is appended directly to the join
condition instead of the where clause.
To generate the extra condition we need to have the join field
available in the compiler. This has the side-effect that we need more
ugly code in Query.__getstate__ and __setstate__ as Field objects
aren't pickleable.
The join trimming code got a big change - now we trim all direct joins
and never trim reverse joins. This also fixes the problem in #10790
which was join trimming in null filter cases.
The trim argument was used by split_exclude() only to trim the last
join from the given lookup. It is cleaner to just trim the last part
from the lookup in split_exclude() directly so that there is no need
to burden add_filter() with the logic needed for only split_exclude().
F() expressions reuse joins like any lookup in a .filter() call -
reuse multijoins generated in the same .filter() call else generate
new joins. Also, lookups can now reuse joins generated by F().
This change is backwards incompatible, but it is required to prevent
dict randomization from generating different queries depending on
.filter() kwarg ordering. The new way is also more consistent in how
joins are reused.
The select_related code got confused when it needed to travel a
reverse relation to a model which had different parent than the
originally travelled relation.
Thanks to Trac aliases shauncutts for report and ungenio for original
patch (committed patch is somewhat modified version of that).
The problem is the same as in #10888 which was reintroduced when
bulk_insert was added. Thanks to Jani Tiainen for report, patch and
also testing the final patch on Oracle GIS.
The dupe avoidance logic was removed as it doesn't seem to do anything,
it is complicated, and it has nearly zero documentation.
The removal of dupe_avoidance allowed for refactoring of both the
implementation and signature of Query.join(). This refactoring cascades
again to some other parts. The most significant of them is the changes
in qs.combine(), and compiler.select_related_descent().
The Query.select and Query.select_fields were collapsed into one list
because the attributes had to be always in sync. Now that they are in
one attribute it is impossible to edit them out of sync.
Similar collapse was done for Query.related_select_cols and
Query.related_select_fields.
There was a bug introduced in #18676 which caused fast-path deletes
implemented as "DELETE WHERE pk IN <subquery>" to fail if the SELECT
clause contained additional stuff (for example extra() and annotate()).
Thanks to Trac alias pressureman for spotting this regression.
RETURNING is an extension of the SQL standard, which is not implemented
the same by all databases. Allow DatabaseOperations.return_insert_id to
return a None to allow for other 3rd party backends with a different
implementation.
Objects can be fast-path deleted if there are no signals, and there are
no further cascades. If fast-path is taken, the objects do not need to
be loaded into memory before deletion.
Thanks to Jeremy Dunck, Simon Charette and Alex Gaynor for reviewing
the patch.
When doing deeper than one level select_related() + only queries(), the
code introduced in b6c356b7bb errored
incorrectly.
Thanks to mrmachine for report & test case.
In an ideal world, nothing except django.db.models.query should have to
import stuff from django.models.sql.*. A few things were needing to get
hold of sql.constants.LOOKUP_SEP, so this commit moves it up to
django.db.models.constants.LOOKUP_SEP.
There are still a couple of places (admin) poking into sql.* to get
QUERY_TERMS, which is unfortunate, but a slightly different issue and
harder to adjust.
The joins for nested nullable foreign keys were often created as INNER
when they should have been OUTER joins. The reason was that only the
first join in the chain was promoted correctly. There were also issues
with select_related etc.
The basic structure for this problem was:
A -[nullable]-> B -[nonnull]-> C
And the basic problem was that the A->B join was correctly LOUTER,
the B->C join not.
The major change taken in this patch is that now if we promote a join
A->B, we will automatically promote joins B->X for all X in the query.
Also, we now make sure there aren't ever join chains like:
a LOUTER b INNER c
If the a -> b needs to be LOUTER, then the INNER at the end of the
chain will cancel the LOUTER join and we have a broken query.
Sebastian reported this problem and did also major portions of the
patch.
The ORM generated a query with INNER JOIN instead of LEFT OUTER JOIN
in a somewhat complicated case. The main issue was that there was a
chain of nullable FK -> non-nullble FK, and the join promotion logic
didn't see the need to promote the non-nullable FK even if the
previous nullable FK was already promoted to LOUTER JOIN. This resulted
in a query like a LOUTER b INNER c, which incorrectly prunes results.
* Renamed smart_unicode to smart_text (but kept the old name under
Python 2 for backwards compatibility).
* Renamed smart_str to smart_bytes.
* Re-introduced smart_str as an alias for smart_text under Python 3
and smart_bytes under Python 2 (which is backwards compatible).
Thus smart_str always returns a str objects.
* Used the new smart_str in a few places where both Python 2 and 3
want a str.
Cleared aggregations on add_date_select method so only distinct dates
are returned when dealing with a QuerySet that contained aggregations.
That would cause the query set to return repeated dates because it
would look for distinct (date kind, aggregation) pairs.
At least Oracle needs parentheses in negated where conditions, even if
there is only single condition negated. Fixed this by reverting to old
logic in that part of as_sql() and adding a comment about this.
I did not investigate why the parentheses are needed. The original
offending commit was bd283aa844.
Made sure the WhereNode.as_sql() handles various EmptyResultSet and
FullResultSet conditions correctly. Also, got rid of the FullResultSet
exception class. It is now represented by '', [] return value in the
as_sql() methods.
This commit tackles a couple of issues. First, in certain cases there
were some mixups if field.attname or field.name should be deferred.
Field.attname is now always used.
Another issue tackled is a case where field is both deferred by
.only(), and selected by select_related. This case is now an error.
A lot of thanks to koniiiik (Michal Petrucha) for the patch, and
to Andrei Antoukh for review.
When order_by causes new joins to be added to the query, the joins must
be LEFT OUTER joins for nullable relations, otherwise the order_by
could cause the results to be altered. This commit fixes the logic to
only promote new joins, previously all joins in the order_by lookup
path were promoted.
Thanks to Bruno Desthuilliers for spotting this corner case.
Databases with update_can_self_select = False (MySQL for example)
generated non-necessary queries when saving a multitable inherited
model, and when the save resulted in update.
Fixed#18248 -- proxy models were added to included_inherited_models
in sql.query.Query. The variable is meant to be used for multitable
inheritance only. This mistake caused problems in situations where
proxy model's query was reused.
Fixed#17957 -- when using Oracle and character fields, the fields
were set null = True to ease the handling of empty strings. This
caused problems when using multiple databases from different vendors,
or when the character field happened to be also a primary key.
The handling was changed so that NOT NULL is not emitted on Oracle
even if field.null = False, and field.null is not touched otherwise.
Thanks to bhuztez for the report, ramiro for triaging & comments,
ikelly for the patch and alex for reviewing.
QuerySet had previously some complex logic for dealing with nullable
fields in negated add_filter() calls. It seems the logic is leftover
from a time where the WhereNode wasn't as intelligent in handling
field__in=[] conditions.
Thanks to aaugustin for comments on the patch.
only consider some fields (PostgreSQL only).
For this, the ``distinct()`` QuerySet method now accepts an optional
list of model fields names and generates ``DISTINCT ON`` clauses on
these cases. Thanks Jeffrey Gelens and Anssi Kääriäinen for their work.
Fixes#6422.

This is the old Query.as_sql() method revived: it's like Query.__str__,
but the parameters aren't substituted into the placeholders. Thus, it's
a more accurate representation of the SQL the (default) backend will
see. Entirely internal.

Turns out that a lot more than just SELECT can return data, and this list is
very hard to define up front in a cross-database manner. So let's just assume
that anyone using raw() is at least halfway competant and can deal with
the error messages if they don't use a data-returning query.
Thanks to Christophe Pettus for the patch.
