Synopsis

Documentation

class PersistEntity val whereSource

A single database entity. For example, if writing a blog application, a blog entry would be an entry, containing fields such as title and content.

Associated Types

data EntityField val :: * -> *Source

Parameters: val and datatype of the field

data Unique val :: ((* -> *) -> * -> *) -> *Source

Unique keys in existence on this entity.

class (MonadIO (b m), MonadIO m, Monad (b m), Monad m) => PersistBackend b m whereSource

Methods

insert :: PersistEntity val => val -> b m (Key b val)Source

Create a new record in the database, returning the newly created identifier.

replace :: PersistEntity val => Key b val -> val -> b m ()Source

Replace the record in the database with the given key. Result is undefined if such a record does not exist.

update :: PersistEntity val => Key b val -> [Update val] -> b m ()Source

Update individual fields on a specific record.

updateWhere :: PersistEntity val => [Filter val] -> [Update val] -> b m ()Source

Update individual fields on any record matching the given criterion.

delete :: PersistEntity val => Key b val -> b m ()Source

Delete a specific record by identifier. Does nothing if record does not exist.

deleteBy :: PersistEntity val => Unique val b -> b m ()Source

Delete a specific record by unique key. Does nothing if no record matches.

deleteWhere :: PersistEntity val => [Filter val] -> b m ()Source

Delete all records matching the given criterion.

get :: PersistEntity val => Key b val -> b m (Maybe val)Source

Get a record by identifier, if available.

getBy :: PersistEntity val => Unique val b -> b m (Maybe (Key b val, val))Source

Get a record by unique key, if available. Returns also the identifier.

selectEnum :: PersistEntity val => [Filter val] -> [SelectOpt val] -> Enumerator (Key b val, val) (b m) aSource

Get all records matching the given criterion in the specified order. Returns also the identifiers.

selectFirst :: PersistEntity val => [Filter val] -> [SelectOpt val] -> b m (Maybe (Key b val, val))Source

get just the first record for the criterion

selectKeys :: PersistEntity val => [Filter val] -> Enumerator (Key b val) (b m) aSource

Get the Keys of all records matching the given criterion.

count :: PersistEntity val => [Filter val] -> b m IntSource

The total number of records fulfilling the given criterion.

selectList :: (PersistEntity val, PersistBackend b m) => [Filter val] -> [SelectOpt val] -> b m [(Key b val, val)]Source

Call select but return the result as a list.

insertBy :: (PersistEntity v, PersistBackend b m) => v -> b m (Either (Key b v, v) (Key b v))Source

Insert a value, checking for conflicts with any unique constraints. If a duplicate exists in the database, it is returned as Left. Otherwise, the new Key is returned as Right.

getJust :: (PersistBackend b m, PersistEntity val, Show (Key b val)) => Key b val -> b m valSource

Same as get, but for a non-null (not Maybe) foreign key Unsafe unless your database is enforcing that the foreign key is valid

belongsTo :: (PersistBackend b m, PersistEntity ent1, PersistEntity ent2) => (ent1 -> Maybe (Key b ent2)) -> ent1 -> b m (Maybe ent2)Source

belongsToJust :: (PersistBackend b m, PersistEntity ent1, PersistEntity ent2) => (ent1 -> Key b ent2) -> ent1 -> b m ent2Source

same as belongsTo, but uses getJust and therefore is similarly unsafe

getByValue :: (PersistEntity v, PersistBackend b m) => v -> b m (Maybe (Key b v, v))Source

A modification of getBy, which takes the PersistEntity itself instead of a Unique value. Returns a value matching one of the unique keys. This function makes the most sense on entities with a single Unique constructor.

checkUnique :: (PersistEntity val, PersistBackend b m) => val -> b m BoolSource

Check whether there are any conflicts for unique keys with this entity and existing entities in the database.

Returns True if the entity would be unique, and could thus safely be inserted; returns False on a conflict.
