Richard Newman daca8def57 UUIDs and instants. Fixes #44, #45, #426, #427. (#438) r=nalexander
* Pre: unused import in translate.rs.

* Part 2: take a dependency on rusqlite for query arguments.

* Part 1: flatten V2 schema into V1. Add UUID and URI.

Bump expected ident and bootstrap datom count in tests.

* Part 5: parse edn::Value::Uuid.

* Part 3: extend ValueType and TypedValue to include Uuid.

* Part 4: add Uuid to query arguments.

* Part 6: extend db to support Uuid.

* Part 8: add a tx-parser test for #f NaN and #uuid.

* Part 7: parse and algebrize UUIDs in queries.

* Part 1: parse #inst in EDN and throughout query engine.

* Part 3: handle instants in db.

* Part 2: instants never matches integers in queries.

* Part 4: use DateTime for tx_instants.

* Add a test for adding and querying UUIDs and instants.

* Review comments.

README.md Partly flesh out query algebrizer. (#243) r=nalexander 2017-02-15 16:10:59 -08:00

This crate turns a parsed query, as defined by the query crate and produced by the query-parser crate, into an algebrized tree, also called a query processor tree.

This is something of a wooly definition: a query algebrizer in a traditional relational database is the component that combines the schema — including column type constraints — with the query, resolving names and that sort of thing. Much of that work is unnecessary in our model; for example, we don't need to resolve column aliases, deal with table names, or that sort of thing. But the similarity is strong enough to give us the name of this crate.

The result of this process is traditionally handed to the query optimizer to yield an execution plan. In our case the execution plan is deterministically derived from the algebrized tree, and the real optimization (such as it is) takes place within the underlying SQLite database.
