README

sqlds

sqlds stands for SQL Datasource.

Most SQL-driven datasources, like Postgres, MySQL, and MSSQL share extremely similar codebases.

The sqlds package is intended to remove the repetition of these datasources and centralize the datasource logic. The only thing that the datasources themselves should have to define is connecting to the database, and what driver to use, and the plugin frontend.

Usage

ds := sqlds.NewDatasource(&myDatasource{})
if err := datasource.Manage("my-datasource", ds.NewDatasource, datasource.ManageOpts{}); err != nil {
  log.DefaultLogger.Error(err.Error())
  os.Exit(1)
}

Standardization

Macros

The sqlds package defines a set of default macros:

• $__timeFilter(time_column): Filters by timestamp using the query period. Resolves to: time >= '0001-01-01T00:00:00Z' AND time <= '0001-01-01T00:00:00Z'
• $__timeFrom(time_column): Filters by timestamp using the start point of the query period. Resolves to time >= '0001-01-01T00:00:00Z'
• $__timeTo(time_column): Filters by timestamp using the end point of the query period. Resolves to time <= '0001-01-01T00:00:00Z'
• $__timeGroup(time_column, period): To group times based on a period. Resolves to (minute example): "datepart(year, time), datepart(month, time)'"
• $__table: Returns the table configured in the query.
• $__column: Returns the column configured in the query.

	ErrorBadDatasource = errors.New("type assertion to datasource failed")
	// ErrorJSON is returned when json.Unmarshal fails

	ErrorTimeout = errors.New("query timeout exceeded")

)

var (
	// ErrorBadArgumentCount is returned from macros when the wrong number of arguments were provided
	ErrorBadArgumentCount = errors.New("unexpected number of arguments")
)

var ErrorNotImplemented = errors.New("not implemented")

ErrorNotImplemented is returned if the function is not implemented by the provided Driver (the Completable pointer is nil)

Functions

func NewDatasource

func NewDatasource(c Driver) *sqldatasource

NewDatasource initializes the Datasource wrapper and instance manager

Types

type Completable

type Completable interface {
	Schemas(ctx context.Context) ([]string, error)
	Tables(ctx context.Context, schema string) ([]string, error)
	Columns(ctx context.Context, table string) ([]string, error)
}

Completable will be used to autocomplete Tables Schemas and Columns for SQL languages

type Connection

type Connection interface {
	Close() error
	Ping() error
	PingContext(ctx context.Context) error
	QueryContext(ctx context.Context, query string, args ...interface{}) (*sql.Rows, error)
}

Connection represents a SQL connection and is satisfied by the *sql.DB type For now, we only add the functions that we need / actively use. Some other candidates for future use could include the ExecContext and BeginTxContext functions

type Driver

type Driver interface {
	// Connect connects to the database. It does not need to call `db.Ping()`
	Connect(backend.DataSourceInstanceSettings, json.RawMessage) (*sql.DB, error)
	// Settings are read whenever the plugin is initialized, or after the data source settings are updated
	Settings(backend.DataSourceInstanceSettings) DriverSettings
	Macros() Macros
	Converters() []sqlutil.Converter
}

Driver is a simple interface that defines how to connect to a backend SQL datasource Plugin creators will need to implement this in order to create a managed datasource

type DriverSettings

type DriverSettings struct {
	Timeout  time.Duration
	FillMode *data.FillMissing
}

type FormatQueryOption

type FormatQueryOption uint32

FormatQueryOption defines how the user has chosen to represent the data

const (
	// FormatOptionTimeSeries formats the query results as a timeseries using "WideToLong"
	FormatOptionTimeSeries FormatQueryOption = iota
	// FormatOptionTable formats the query results as a table using "LongToWide"
	FormatOptionTable
	// FormatOptionLogs sets the preferred visualization to logs
	FormatOptionLogs
)

type MacroFunc

type MacroFunc func(*Query, []string) (string, error)

MacroFunc defines a signature for applying a query macro Query macro implementations are defined by users / consumers of this package

type Macros

type Macros map[string]MacroFunc

Macros is a list of MacroFuncs. The "string" key is the name of the macro function. This name has to be regex friendly.

var DefaultMacros Macros = Macros{
	"timeFilter": macroTimeFilter,
	"timeFrom":   macroTimeFrom,
	"timeGroup":  macroTimeGroup,
	"timeTo":     macroTimeTo,
	"table":      macroTable,
	"column":     macroColumn,
}

type Query

type Query struct {
	RawSQL         string            `json:"rawSql"`
	Format         FormatQueryOption `json:"format"`
	ConnectionArgs json.RawMessage   `json:"connectionArgs"`

	RefID         string            `json:"-"`
	Interval      time.Duration     `json:"-"`
	TimeRange     backend.TimeRange `json:"-"`
	MaxDataPoints int64             `json:"-"`
	FillMissing   *data.FillMissing `json:"fillMode,omitempty"`

	// Macros
	Schema string `json:"schema,omitempty"`
	Table  string `json:"table,omitempty"`
	Column string `json:"column,omitempty"`
}

Query is the model that represents the query that users submit from the panel / queryeditor. For the sake of backwards compatibility, when making changes to this type, ensure that changes are only additive.

func GetQuery

func GetQuery(query backend.DataQuery) (*Query, error)

GetQuery returns a Query object given a backend.DataQuery using json.Unmarshal

func (*Query) WithSQL

func (q *Query) WithSQL(query string) *Query

WithSQL copies the Query, but with a different RawSQL value. This is mostly useful in the Interpolate function, where the RawSQL value is modified in a loop

type Response

type Response struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func NewResponse

func NewResponse(res *backend.QueryDataResponse) *Response

func (*Response) Response

func (r *Response) Response() *backend.QueryDataResponse

func (*Response) Set

func (r *Response) Set(refID string, res backend.DataResponse)
