All user visible changes to this project will be documented in this file. This project adheres to Semantic Versioning, as described for Rust libraries in RFC #1105
-
Added support for SQLite. Diesel still uses postgres by default. To use SQLite instead, add
default-features = false, features = ["sqlite"]
to your Cargo.toml. You'll also want to adddefault-features = false, features = ["sqlite"]
todiesel_codegen
. Since SQLite is a much more limited database, it does not support our full set of features. You can use SQLite and PostgreSQL in the same project if you desire. -
Added support for mapping
types::Timestamp
,types::Date
, andtypes::Time
to/fromchrono::NaiveDateTime
,chrono::NaiveDate
, andchrono::NaiveTime
. Addfeatures = ["chrono"]
to enable. -
Added a
treat_none_as_null
option tochangeset_for
. When set totrue
, a model will set a field toNull
when an optional struct field isNone
, instead of skipping the field entirely. The default value of the option isfalse
, as we think the current behavior is a much more common use case. -
Added
Expression#nullable()
, to allow comparisons of not null columns with nullable ones when required. -
Added
sum
andavg
functions. -
Added the
diesel setup
,diesel database setup
, anddiesel database reset
commands to the CLI. -
Added support for SQL
IN
statements through theeq_any
method. -
Added a top level
select
function for select statements with no from clause. This is primarily intended to be used for testing Diesel itself, but it has been added to the public API as it will likely be useful for third party crates in the future.select(foo).from(bar)
might be a supported API in the future as an alternative tobar.select(foo)
. -
Added
expression::dsl::sql
as a helper function for constructingSqlLiteral
nodes. This is primarily intended to be used for testing Diesel itself, but is part of the public API as an escape hatch if our query builder DSL proves inadequate for a specific case. Use of this function in any production code is discouraged as it is inherently unsafe and avoids real type checking.
-
Moved most of our top level trait exports into a prelude module, and re-exported our CRUD functions from the top level.
diesel::query_builder::update
and friends are nowdiesel::update
, and you will get them by default if you importdiesel::*
. For a less aggressive glob, you can importdiesel::prelude::*
, which will only export our traits. -
Connection
is now a trait instead of a struct. The struct that was previously known asConnection
can be found atdiesel::pg::PgConnection
. -
Rename both the
#[derive(Queriable)]
attribute and theQueriable
trait to use the correct spellingQueryable
. -
load
andget_results
now return aVec<Model>
instead of an iterator. -
Replaced
Connection#find(source, id)
withsource.find(id).first(&connection)
. -
The
debug_sql!
macro now uses ` for identifier quoting, and?
for bind parameters, which is closer to a "generic" backend. The previous behavior had no identifier quoting, and used PG specific bind params. -
Many user facing types are now generic over the backend. This includes, but is not limited to
Queryable
andChangeset
. This change should not have much impact, as most impls will have been generated by diesel_codegen, and that API has not changed. -
The mostly internal
NativeSqlType
has been removed. It now requires a known backend.fn<T> foo() where T: NativeSqlType
is nowfn<T, DB> foo() where DB: HasSqlType<T>
Connection#query_sql
andConnection#query_sql_params
have been removed. These methods were not part of the public API, and were only meant to be used for testing Diesel itself. However, they were technically callable from any crate, so the removal has been noted here. Their usage can be replaced with bareselect
andexpression::dsl::sql
.
-
Diesel CLI will no longer output notices about
__diesel_schema_migrations
already existing. -
Relicensed under MIT/Apache dual
-
Added Diesel CLI, a tool for managing your schema. See the readme for more information.
-
Add the ability for diesel to maintain your schema for you automatically. See the migrations module for individual methods.
-
Add DebugQueryBuilder to build sql without requiring a connection.
-
Add print_sql! and debug_sql! macros to print out and return sql strings from QueryFragments.
-
#[changeset_for]
can now be used with structs containing aVec
. Fixes #63. -
No longer generate invalid SQL when an optional update field is not the first field on a changeset. Fixes #68.
-
#[changeset_for]
can now be used with structs containing only a single field other thanid
. Fixes #66. -
infer_schema!
properly works with array columns. Fixes #65.
-
#[changeset_for(table)]
now treatsOption
fields as an optional update. Previously a field withNone
for the value would insertNULL
into the database field. It now does not update the field if the value isNone
. -
.save_changes
(generated by#[changeset_for]
) now returns a new struct, rather than mutatingself
. The returned struct can be any type that implementsQueryable
for the right SQL type
-
#[derive(Queryable)]
now allows generic parameters on the struct. -
Table definitions can now support up to 26 columns. Because this increases our compile time by 3x,
features = ["large-tables"]
is needed to support table definitions above 16 columns.
-
Quickcheck is now an optional dependency. When
features = ["quickcheck"]
is added toCargo.toml
, you'll gainArbitrary
implementations for everything indiesel::data_types
. -
Added support for the SQL
MIN
function. -
Added support for the
Numeric
data type. Since there is no Big Decimal type in the standard library, a dumb struct has been provided which mirrors what Postgres provides, which can be converted into whatever crate you are using. -
Timestamp columns can now be used with
std::time::SystemTime
when compiled with--features unstable
-
Implemented
Send
onConnection
(required for R2D2 support) -
Added
infer_schema!
andinfer_table_from_schema!
. Both macros take a database URL, and will invoketable!
for you automatically based on the schema.infer_schema!
queries for the table names, whileinfer_table_from_schema!
takes a table name as the second argument.
-
Added an
execute
method toQueryFragment
, which is intended to replaceConnection#execute_returning_count
. The old method still exists for use under the hood, but has been hidden from docs and is not considered public API. -
Added
get_result
andget_results
, which work similarly toload
andfirst
, but are intended to make code read better when working with commands likecreate
andupdate
. In the future,get_result
may also check that only a single row was affected. -
Added
insert
, which mirrors the pattern ofupdate
anddelete
.
-
Added a hidden
__Nonexhaustive
variant toresult::Error
. This is not intended to be something you can exhaustively match on, but I do want people to be able to check for specific cases, soBox<std::error::Error>
is not an option. -
query_one
,find
, andfirst
now assume a single row is returned. For cases where you actually expect 0 or 1 rows to be returned, theoptional
method has been added to the result, in case having aResult<Option<T>>
is more ideomatic than checking forErr(NotFound)
.
Connection#insert
andConnection#insert_returning_count
have been deprecated in favor ofinsert
- Initial release
