Packages
The module contains the following packages:
- Build - factory to create PostreSQL persistence components.
- Connect - connection component to configure PostgreSQL connection to database.
- Persistence - abstract persistence components to perform basic CRUD operations.
Use
Install the Python package as
pip install pip-services4-postgres
As an example, lets create persistence for the following data object.
class MyObject(IStringIdentifiable):
def __init__(self, id=None, key=None, content=None):
self.id = id
self.key = key
self.content = content
The persistence component shall implement the following interface with a basic set of CRUD operations.
from abc import ABC
from typing import Union, List
from pip_services4_commons.data import IIdentifiable, PagingParams, FilterParams, DataPage
class IMyPersistence(ABC):
def get_page_by_filter(self, correlation_id: Union[str, None], filter: Union[FilterParams, None],
paging: Union[PagingParams, None]) -> DataPage:
raise NotImplemented()
def get_one_by_id(self, correlation_id: Union[str, None], id: str) -> MyObject:
raise NotImplemented()
def get_one_by_key(self, correlation_id: Union[str, None], key: List[str]) -> MyObject:
raise NotImplemented()
def create(self, correlation_id: Union[str, None], item: MyObject) -> MyObject:
raise NotImplemented()
def update(self, correlation_id: Union[str, None], item: MyObject) -> MyObject:
raise NotImplemented()
def delete_by_id(self, correlation_id: Union[str, None], id: str):
raise NotImplemented()
To implement postgresql persistence component you shall inherit IdentifiablePostgresPersistence
.
Most CRUD operations will come from the base class. You only need to override get_page_by_filter
method with a custom filter function.
And implement a get_one_by_key
custom persistence method that doesn’t exist in the base class.
class MyPostgresPersistence(IdentifablePostgresPersistence):
def __init__(self):
super(MyPostgresPersistence, self).__init__('myobjects')
self._auto_create_object("CREATE TABLE myobjects (id VARCHAR(32) PRIMARY KEY, key VARCHAR(50), value VARCH(255)")
self._ensure_index("myobjects_key", { 'key': 1 }, { 'unique': True })
def __compose_filter(self, filter):
filter = filter or FilterParams()
criteria = []
id = filter.get_as_nullable_string('id')
if id is not None:
criteria.append("id='" + id + "'")
temp_ids = filter.get_as_nullable_string('ids')
if temp_ids is not None:
ids = temp_ids.split(',')
criteria.append("id IN ('" + "','".join(ids) + "')")
key = filter.get_as_nullable_string('key')
if key is not None:
criteria.append("key='" + key + "'")
return " AND ".join(criteria) if len(criteria) > 0 else None
def get_page_by_filter(self, correlation_id, filter, paging, sort, select):
return super().get_page_by_filter(correlation_id, self.__compose_filter(filter), paging, 'id', None)
def get_one_by_key(self, correlation_id, key):
query = "SELECT * FROM " + self._quoted_table_name() + " WHERE \"key\"=%s"
params = [key]
result = self._request(query, params)
item = result[0] or None if result and result[0] else None
if item is None:
self._logger.trace(correlation_id, "Nothing found from %s with key = %s", self._table_name, key)
else:
self._logger.trace(correlation_id, "Retrieved from %s with key = %s", self._table_name, key)
item = self._convert_to_public(item)
return item
Alternatively you can store data in non-relational format using IdentificableJsonPostgresPersistence
.
It stores data in tables with two columns - id
with unique object id and data
with object data serialized as JSON.
To access data fields you shall use data->'field'
expression or data->>'field'
expression for string values.
from pip_services4_postgres.persistence.IdentifiableJsonPostgresPersistence import IdentifiableJsonPostgresPersistence
class MyPostgresPersistence(IdentifableJsonPostgresPersistence):
def __init__(self):
super(MyPostgresPersistence, self).__init__('myobjects')
self._ensure_table("VARCHAR(32)", "JSONB")
self._ensure_index("myobjects_key", { "data->>'key'": 1 }, { 'unique': True })
def __compose_filter(self, filter):
filter = filter or FilterParams()
criteria = []
id = filter.get_as_nullable_string('id')
if id is not None:
criteria.append("data->>'id'='" + id + "'")
temp_ids = filter.get_as_nullable_string('ids')
if temp_ids is not None:
ids = temp_ids.split(',')
criteria.append("data->>'id' IN ('" + "','".join(ids) + "')")
key = filter.get_as_nullable_string('key')
if key is not None:
criteria.append("data->>'key'='" + key + "'")
return " AND ".join(criteria) if len(criteria) > 0 else None
def get_page_by_filter(self, correlation_id, filter, paging, sort, select):
return super().get_page_by_filter(correlation_id, self.__compose_filter(filter), paging, 'id', None)
def get_one_by_key(self, correlation_id, key):
query = "SELECT * FROM " + self._quoted_table_name() + " WHERE data->>'key'=%s"
params = [key]
result = self._request(query, params)
item = result[0] or None if result and result[0] else None
if item is None:
self._logger.trace(correlation_id, "Nothing found from %s with key = %s", self._table_name, key)
else:
self._logger.trace(correlation_id, "Retrieved from %s with key = %s", self._table_name, key)
item = self._convert_to_public(item)
return item
Configuration for your microservice that includes postgresql persistence may look the following way.
