oj

oj

Build Status

A refreshing Clojure library for talking to your database, heavily influenced by Ring.

Features

Anti-features

The SPEC file provides a complete description of the OJ interface.

Installation

Add this to your Leiningen :dependencies:

[oj "0.3.0"]

You'll also need a database driver (thanks to yesql for providing this handy table):

|Database|:dependencies Entry| |—|—| |PostgreSQL|[org.postgresql/postgresql "9.3-1102-jdbc41"]| |MySQL|[mysql/mysql-connector-java "5.1.32"]| |Oracle|[com.oracle/ojdbc14 "10.2.0.4.0"]| |SQLite|[org.xerial/sqlite-jdbc "3.7.2"]| |Derby|[org.apache.derby/derby "10.11.1.1"]|

Usage

Queries are represented as a Clojure map. The full specification of a query map can be found here. clojure (def users-named-taylor {:table :users :select [:id :email] :where {:first_name "taylor"}})

Queries can be executed by passing a query map and a database config into oj/exec: ``` clojure (def db {:subprotocol “mysql” :subname “//127.0.0.1:3306/wishwheel3” :user “root” :password ""})

(oj/exec users-named-taylor db) ; ⇒ ({:id 1 :email “taylorlapeyre@gmail”} …) ```

Modifiers are functions that transform a query map into another query map. This allows us to chain them together. Some basic modifiers are provided by default at oj.modifiers. ``` clojure (require [oj.core :as oj][oj.modifiers :as db])

(defn find-by-username [username] (→ (db/query :users) (db/select [:id :username :email :created_at]) (db/where {:username username}) (oj/exec db-config) (first)))

(find-by-username “taylorlapeyre”) ; ⇒ {:id 1 :username “taylorlapeyre”} ```

OJ's roots in regular Clojure data structures make it extremely powerful for building abstractions. ``` clojure (defn user [& forms] (let [query (reduce merge {:table :users} forms)] (oj/exec query db)))

(user {:where {:id 1}}) ⇒ SELECT * FROM users WHERE users.id=1

(user {:where {:id 1}} {:select [:id :username]}) ⇒ SELECT id, username FROM users WHERE users.id=1 ```

Not quite ActiveRecord, but it's getting there. And in 3 lines of code no less!

Of course, you can also perform all of the standard CRUD operations that you'd expect: ``` clojure (defn create [user-data] (when (valid? user-data) (→ (db/query :users) (db/insert user-data) (oj/exec db-config))))

(defn update [id user-data] (when (valid? user-data) (→ (db/query :users) (db/where {:id id}) (db/update user-data) (oj/exec db-config))))

(defn delete [id] (→ (db/query :users) (db/where {:id id}) (db/delete) (oj/exec db-config))) ```

How about using SQL's aggregate functions? OJ allows you to use those as well, using a Clojure-like syntax.

For example, to get the average price of all items:

(-> (db/query :items)
    (select '(avg :price))
    (oj/exec db-config))
; => 46.76

For more advanced uses, OJ will provide the data in a useful format.

(-> (db/query :items)
    (group :published)
    (select [:published '(avg :price)])
    (oj/exec db-config))
; ({:published 1 :avg {:price 64.35}}, {:published 0 :avg {:price 10.35}})

OJ gives you a lot of flexibility. For instance, you could write some custom modifier functions and then execute them when you like. This allows you to combine them. ``` clojure (defn find-by-username [query username] (→ query (db/where {:username username})))

(→ (query :users) (find-by-username “taylor”) (oj/exec db-config) (first)) ```

Printing SQL Queries

If you'd like SQL queries logged to your console when executed, you can enable it by setting the environment variable PRINT_DB_LOGS to true.
