* Part 1: define ValueTypeSet.
We're going to use this instead of `HashSet<ValueType>` so that we can clearly express
the empty set and the set of all types, and also to encapsulate a switch to `EnumSet`."
* Part 2: use ValueTypeSet.
* Part 3: fix type expansion.
* Part 4: add a test for type extraction from nested `or`.
* Review comments.
* Review comments: simplify ValueTypeSet.
* Pre: put query parts in alphabetical order.
* Pre: rename 'input' to 'query' in translate tests.
* Part 1: parse :limit.
* Part 2: validate and escape variable parameters in SQL.
* Part 3: algebrize and translate limits.
This adds an `:order` keyword to `:find`.
If present, the results of the query will be an ordered set, rather than
an unordered set; rows will appear in an ordered defined by each
`:order` entry.
Each can be one of three things:
- A var, `?x`, meaning "order by ?x ascending".
- A pair, `(asc ?x)`, meaning "order by ?x ascending".
- A pair, `(desc ?x)`, meaning "order by ?x descending".
Values will be ordered in this sequence for asc, and in reverse for desc:
1. Entity IDs, in ascending numerical order.
2. Booleans, false then true.
3. Timestamps, in ascending numerical order.
4. Longs and doubles, intermixed, in ascending numerical order.
5. Strings, in ascending lexicographic order.
6. Keywords, in ascending lexicographic order, considering the entire
ns/name pair as a single string separated by '/'.
Subcommits:
Pre: make bound_value public.
Pre: generalize ErrorKind::UnboundVariable for use in order.
Part 1: parse (direction, var) pairs.
Part 2: parse :order clause into FindQuery.
Part 3: include order variables in algebrized query.
We add order variables to :with, so we can reuse its type tag projection
logic, and so that we can phrase ordering in terms of variables rather
than datoms columns.
Part 4: produce SQL for order clauses.
* Pre: refactor projector code.
* Part 1: maintain 'with' variables in AlgebrizedQuery.
* Part 2: include necessary 'with' variables in SQL projection list.
The test produces projection elements for `:with`, even though there are
no aggregates in the query. This test will need to be adjusted when we
optimize this away!
This commit turns complex `or` -- `or`s in which not all variables are
unified, or in which not all arms are the same shape -- into a
computed table.
We do this by building a template CC that shares some state with the
destination CC, applying each arm of the `or` to a copy of the template
as if it were a standalone query, then building a projection list and
creating a `ComputedTable::Union`. This is pushed into the destination
CC's `computed_tables` list.
Finally, the variables projected from the UNION are bound in the
destination CC, so that unification occurs, and projection of the
outermost query can use bindings established by the `or-join`.
This commit includes projection of type codes from heterogeneous `UNION`
arms: we compute a list of variables for which a definite type is
unknown in at least one arm, and force all arms to project either a type
tag column or a fixed type. It's important that each branch of a UNION
project the same columns in the same order, hence the projection of
fixed values.
The translator is similarly extended to project the type tag column name
or the known value_type_tag to support this.
Review comment: clarify union type extraction.
This commit:
- Defines a new kind of column, distinct from the eavt columns in
`DatomsColumn`, to model the rows projected from subqueries. These
always name one of two things: a variable, or a variable's type tag.
Naturally the two cases are thus `Variable` and `VariableTypeTag`.
These are cheap to clone, given that `Variable` is an `Rc<String>`.
- Defines `Column` as a wrapper around `DatomsColumn` and
`VariableColumn`. Everywhere we used to use `DatomsColumn` we now
allow `Column`: particularly in constraints and projections.
- Broadens the definition of a table list in the intermediate
"query-sql" representation to include a SQL UNION. A UNION is
represented as a list of queries and an alias.
- Implements translation from a `ComputedTable` to the query-sql
representation. In this commit we only project vars, not type tags.
