SqlParse

Parses and transforms SQL queries.

This project started is an experiement, and isn't in a stable state. Please don't use it in production code yet.

What's supported already?

  • Parser

    • Grammar: SELECT ... FROM ... [ WHERE ... ] [ ORDER BY ... ]
    • Where clause expression tree
    • Source tables/models (in FROM)
    • Projections
  • Query builder

    • Transform SQL into Mongo queries
    • Transform SQL into SqlAlchemy queries

Roadmap

Here's a list of features that are currently in the plans for development:

  • Grammar

    • Aliases
    • Joins
    • Unions
    • Pivots
    • Functions
    • Bitwise operators
    • Math expressions
    • GROUP BY and HAVING
    • LIMIT and OFFSET
    • EXCEPT and INTERSECT
  • Parser

    • Null-safe equality
    • Type checking
    • Logical optimizations
    • Multiple tables/models
  • General

    • Better test coverage
    • Sphinx documentation

Tests

To run unit tests:

./setup.py test or make test

Examples

Parsing SQL query into a pyparsing parse tree:

>>> ast = sqlparse.parseString('select a from b where c = 1 and d = 2 or e = "f"')
>>> print ast.asXML('query')
<query>
  <columns>
    <column>a</column>
  </columns>
  <tables>
    <table>b</table>
  </tables>
  <where>(and (= c 1) (or (= d 2) (= e "f")))</where>
</query>
>>> print ast.tables.asXML('tables')
<tables>
  <table>b</table>
</tables>    

Building a SqlAlchemy query object from a parsed SQL query:

>>> builder = sqlparse.bulders.SqlAlchemyQueryBuilder(sa_session, globals())
>>> sqlalchemy_query = builder.parse_and_build("""
...     select * from User where
...         not (last_name = 'Jacob' or
...             (first_name != 'Chris' and last_name != 'Lyon')) and
...         not is_active = 1
... """)
>>> for result in sqlalchemy_query.all():
...     # do something

Building a MongoDB query object from a parsed SQL query:

>>> builder = sqlparse.builders.MongoQueryBuilder(pymongo_database)
>>> mongo_query = builder.parse_and_build("""
...     select * from User where
...         not (last_name = 'Jacob' or
...             (first_name != 'Chris' and last_name != 'Lyon')) and
...         not is_active = 1
... """)
>>> print json.dumps(mongo_query, indent=4)

                                        "$ne": "Chris"
                                    }
                                },

                                    "last_name": {
                                        "$ne": "Lyon"
                                    }
                                }
                            ]
                        }
                    ]
                }
            ]
        },
        {
            "$nor": [
                {
                    "is_active": 1
                }
            ]
        }
