Slick 2 - Update columns in a table and return whole table object

问题

How would you update a few columns in a table table while returning the entire updated table when using slick?

Assuming SomeTables is some TableQuery, you would typically write a query like this if you want to, for example, add an item to the table (and returning the newly added item)

val returnedItem = SomeTables returning SomeTables += someTable

How would you do the same if you want to update an item and return the whole back the whole item, I suspect you would do something like this

val q = SomeTables.filter(_.id === id).map(x => (x.someColumn,x.anotherColumn)) returning SomeTables
val returnedItem = q.update((3,"test"))

The following code however does not work, and I can't see any documentation on how to do this

Note that I am aware you can just query the item beforehand, update it, and then use copy on the original object, however this requires a lot of boilerplate (and DB trips as well)

回答1:

This feature is not supported in Slick (v2 or v3-M1); although I don't see any specific reason prohibiting it's implementation, UPDATE ... RETURNING is not a standard SQL feature (for example, H2 does not support it: http://www.h2database.com/html/grammar.html#update). I'll leave as an exercise to the reader to explore how one might safely and efficiently emulate the feature for RDBMSes lacking UDPATE ... RETURNING.

When you call "returning" on a scala.slick.lifted.Query, it gives you a JdbcInsertInvokerComponent$ReturningInsertInvokerDef. You'll find no update method, although there is an insertOrUpdate method; however, insertOrUpdate only returns the returning expression result if an insert occurs, None is returned for updates, so no help here.

From this we can conclude that if you want to use the UPDATE ... RETURNING SQL feature, you'll either need to use StaticQuery or roll your own patch to Slick. You can manually write your queries (and re-implement your table projections as GetResult / SetParameter serializers), or you can try this snippet of code:

package com.spingo.slick

import scala.slick.driver.JdbcDriver.simple.{queryToUpdateInvoker, Query}
import scala.slick.driver.JdbcDriver.{updateCompiler, queryCompiler, quoteIdentifier}
import scala.slick.jdbc.{ResultConverter, CompiledMapping, JdbcBackend, JdbcResultConverterDomain, GetResult, SetParameter, StaticQuery => Q}
import scala.slick.util.SQLBuilder
import slick.ast._

object UpdateReturning {
  implicit class UpdateReturningInvoker[E, U, C[_]](updateQuery: Query[E, U, C]) {
    def updateReturning[A, F](returningQuery: Query[A, F, C], v: U)(implicit session: JdbcBackend#Session): List[F] = {
      val ResultSetMapping(_,
        CompiledStatement(_, sres: SQLBuilder.Result, _),
        CompiledMapping(_updateConverter, _)) = updateCompiler.run(updateQuery.toNode).tree

      val returningNode = returningQuery.toNode
      val fieldNames = returningNode match {
        case Bind(_, _, Pure(Select(_, col), _)) =>
          List(col.name)
        case Bind(_, _, Pure(ProductNode(children), _)) =>
          children map { case Select(_, col) => col.name } toList
        case Bind(_, TableExpansion(_, _, TypeMapping(ProductNode(children), _, _)), Pure(Ref(_), _)) =>
          children map { case Select(_, col) => col.name } toList
      }

      implicit val pconv: SetParameter[U] = {
        val ResultSetMapping(_, compiled, CompiledMapping(_converter, _)) = updateCompiler.run(updateQuery.toNode).tree
        val converter = _converter.asInstanceOf[ResultConverter[JdbcResultConverterDomain, U]]
        SetParameter[U] { (value, params) =>
          converter.set(value, params.ps)
        }
      }

      implicit val rconv: GetResult[F] = {
        val ResultSetMapping(_, compiled, CompiledMapping(_converter, _)) = queryCompiler.run(returningNode).tree
        val converter = _converter.asInstanceOf[ResultConverter[JdbcResultConverterDomain, F]]
        GetResult[F] { p => converter.read(p.rs) }
      }

      val fieldsExp = fieldNames map (quoteIdentifier) mkString ", "
      val sql = sres.sql + s" RETURNING ${fieldsExp}"
      val unboundQuery = Q.query[U, F](sql)
      unboundQuery(v).list
    }
  }
}

I'm certain the above can be improved; I've written it based on my somewhat limited understanding of Slick internals, and it works for me and can leverage the projections / type-mappings you've already defined.

Usage:

import com.spingo.slick.UpdateReturning._
val tq = TableQuery[MyTable]
val st = tq filter(_.id === 1048003) map { e => (e.id, e.costDescription) }
st.updateReturning(tq map (identity), (1048003, Some("such cost")))
