Can't create exclusive constraint on tuple properties

[johanbrook]

I got this crash when applying a migration from a schema change I just made. I'm not sure I typed invalid EdgeQL code somehow, or if the code simply triggered a bug code path in the CLI tool.

• EdgeDB Version: EdgeDB CLI 1.1.0+8bc2c20
• OS Version: macOS 10.14.6.

Related issues:

• Trying to drop a type with edb migration create causes a crash #3521. This one was fixed some days ago, but my bug is still crashing on the same line of code (line 309, in worker.py).

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Apply a certain migration.
2. Get crash: InternalServerError: 'ColumnRef' object has no attribute 'args'.

Full error

edgedb error: InternalServerError: 'ColumnRef' object has no attribute 'args'
  Hint: This is most likely a bug in EdgeDB. Please consider opening an issue ticket at https://github.com/edgedb/edgedb/issues/new?template=bug_report.md

This is the migration applied:

CREATE MIGRATION m1vnhv5wflmooetol65tflzojfs4suaorwvezlqmp2ozbgde5xrrxa
    ONTO m1fse57hjkh43rvap24cfduz5b4uzxm5zqjcm364ryhzqihcjloehq
{
  ALTER TYPE default::Grp {
      DROP PROPERTY label;
  };
  CREATE SCALAR TYPE default::Label EXTENDING std::str {
      CREATE CONSTRAINT std::max_len_value(1);
      CREATE CONSTRAINT std::regexp('[A-Z]');
  };
  ALTER TYPE default::Grp {
      CREATE REQUIRED PROPERTY meta -> tuple<label: default::Label, recurr: default::Recurr> {
          SET REQUIRED USING (SELECT
              ('A', 'Daily')
          );
          CREATE CONSTRAINT std::exclusive;
      };
  };
  ALTER TYPE default::Grp {
      CREATE PROPERTY label := (.meta.label);
      ALTER PROPERTY recurr {
          DROP CONSTRAINT std::exclusive;
      };
      ALTER PROPERTY recurr {
          USING (.meta.recurr);
          RESET OPTIONALITY;
      };
  };
};

Full schema (which triggered the migration)

module default {
    scalar type Recurr extending enum<Daily, Weekly, Monthly, HalfYearly, Yearly>;

    # A, B, C, ...
    scalar type Label extending str {
        constraint max_len_value(1);
        constraint regexp(r'[A-Z]');
    }

    type Contact {
        required property name -> str;
        required link grp -> Grp;
    }

    # "Group" is a reserved word, so "Grp" it is
    type Grp {
        required property meta -> tuple<label: Label, recurr: Recurr> {
            constraint exclusive;
        };

        # Computed
        property label := .meta.label;
        property recurr := .meta.recurr;
        multi link contacts := .< grp[is Contact]
    }
}

Ok, through trial and error I've nailed down the bug to be triggered by this schema change:

module default {
    scalar type Recurr extending enum<Daily, Weekly, Monthly, HalfYearly, Yearly>;
    scalar type Label extending str;

    type Grp {
+       required property meta -> tuple<label: Label, recurr: Recurr> {
+           constraint exclusive;
+       };
    }
}

causing this final migration:

CREATE MIGRATION m1ectij6w7r23ueokv5ux5mz6d3iaii27jhcuteubvluaa6wwar3pa
    ONTO m1ixvlq4zenyzwlbviqgtfdy5umldxh3clqu7s7scklq5nwnffjuaq
{
  ALTER TYPE default::Grp {
      CREATE REQUIRED PROPERTY meta -> tuple<label: default::Label, recurr: default::Recurr> {
          SET REQUIRED USING (SELECT
              ('A', 'Daily')
          );
          CREATE CONSTRAINT std::exclusive;
      };
  };
};

This one was fixed some days ago, but my bug is still crashing on the same line of code (line 309, in worker.py).

Just in case it ever might be useful to know: the crashing line is the bottommost of the stack trace (line 128 in schemamech.py). Basically every edgedb compiler bug will have its topmost frame be in the worker.
