Added

  • Support for bigdecimal 0.4

v2.1.0

10 months ago

Diesel 2.1.0 contains the contributions of 42 people. More than 380 commits were submitted over a span of 9 months.

This release contains several new features and improves existing features. It introduces support for generating migrations based on the diff between your schema.rs file and your database via Diesel CLI. Diesel derives now provides a #[derive(MultiConnection)] derive macro that allows to easily combine different database connections into a single enum, which implements Connection on its own. The MySQL backend gets support for upsert queries via the ON DUPLICATE KEYS syntax. Finally we provide new tooling to improve complex error messages generated for common error cases. Check out our changelog for a complete list of changes.

This release wouldn't be possible without the support of our contributors and sponsors. If you want to support diesels development, consider joining the reviewer team, submitting PR's, help writing documentation or sponsor the maintainers.

Migration generation

Diesel CLI now includes support for generating migrations based on the difference of your schema.rs file and your local database. This works as following:

  1. Start editing your schema.rs file, for example by adding your first table:
diesel::table! {
    users {
        id -> Integer,
        name -> Text,
    }
}
  1. Run diesel migration generate my_first_migration --diff-schema --database-url DATABASE_URL
  2. Checkout, verify and possible modify the generated migration:
-- Your SQL goes here
CREATE TABLE `users`(
	`id` INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
	`name` TEXT NOT NULL
);
  1. Run the migration via diesel migration run --database-url DATABASE_URL

It's important to note that the generated migrations can only contain information that are part of the schema.rs file. This explicitly excludes default value, custom check constraints and similar SQL features. We expect the generated migrations to be a good starting point for writing the actual migration you need, we do not expect them to include all necessary information in all cases or to provide the perfect solution in each scenario.

MultiConnection support

Diesel now includes a #[derive(MultiConnection)] proc macro derive, which allows to easily support more than one database backend in a single application. It can be applied to an enum of different connections:

#[derive(diesel::MultiConnection)]
pub enum AnyConnection {
    Postgresql(diesel::PgConnection),
    Mysql(diesel::MysqlConnection),
    Sqlite(diesel::SqliteConnection),
}

Afterwards the AnyConnection type can be used as ordinary connection:


fn use_multi(conn: &mut AnyConnection) -> QueryResult<()> {
   // Use the connection enum as any other connection type
   // for inserting/updating/loading/…
   diesel::insert_into(users::table)
       .values(users::name.eq("Sean"))
       .execute(conn)?;

   let users = users::table.load::<(i32, String)>(conn)?;
   Ok(())
}

By default this connection type will only support a subset of SQL that's supported by all inner connection types. By being an enum it's easy to fallback to backend specific SQL as soon as required. We provide this feature as derive macro so that it is possible to:

  • Select the backends you actually use
  • Allow to use third party connections as well (this requires the third party connection to be based at least on diesel 2.1 and to implement the MultiConnectionHelper trait in addition to the existing Connection trait.

Upsert support for the MySQL backend

Diesel 2.1 adds support for INSERT INTO … ON DUPLICATE KEYS … queries for the MySQL backend using the existing upsert framework. It's now possible to write such queries using the diesel provided DSL:

diesel::insert_into(users)
    .values(&user2)
    .on_conflict(diesel::dsl::DuplicatedKeys)
    .do_update()
    .set(name.eq("I DONT KNOW ANYMORE"))
    .execute(conn)?;

Improved error messages

We spend some effort to improve error messages generated by rustc for common diesel issues further.

Consider the following example:

table! {
    users {
        id -> Integer,
        name -> Text,
    }
}

#[derive(Queryable)]
struct User {
    name: String,
    id: i32,
}


users::table.load::<User>(&mut conn)

which would generate the following error message:

error[E0277]: the trait bound `(diesel::sql_types::Integer, diesel::sql_types::Text): load_dsl::private::CompatibleType<User, Mysql>` is not satisfied
    --> src/main.rs:20:31
     |

     |               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ required by this bound in `diesel::RunQueryDsl::load`

This is caused by an field order mismatch between what your query returns and what your struct expects the query to return.

With diesel 2.0 we introduced the Selectable trait and a corresponding derive. That allows to automatically generate a matching select clause to prevent such issues from happening. While this already solved parts of the problem it does not solve the following case:

#[derive(Queryable, Selectable)]
struct User {
    name: i32,
    id: i32,
}

users::table.select(User::as_select()).load(&mut conn);

which generates the following error message:

error[E0277]: the trait bound `expression::select_by::SelectBy<User, _>: load_dsl::private::CompatibleType<_, _>` is not satisfied
    --> src/main.rs:20:49

     |               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ required by this bound in `diesel::RunQueryDsl::load`

This is caused by a type mismatch in the name field. With diesel 2.1 we now introduce an additional #[diesel(check_for_backend(diesel::backend::BackendType))] attribute that greatly improves the error messages generated for these cases. This helps pining down which field exactly causes a type mismatch.

By applying this attribute to our example:


#[derive(Queryable, Selectable)]
#[diesel(check_for_backend(diesel::mysql::Mysql))]
struct User {
    name: i32,
    id: i32,
}

we get the following error message:

error[E0277]: the trait bound `i32: FromSql<diesel::sql_types::Text, Mysql>` is not satisfied
  --> src/main.rs:13:11
   |
13 |     name: i32,
   |           ^^^ the trait `FromSql<diesel::sql_types::Text, Mysql>` is not implemented for `i32`
   |
   = help: the trait `FromSql<diesel::sql_types::Integer, Mysql>` is implemented for `i32`
   = note: required for `i32` to implement `diesel::Queryable<diesel::sql_types::Text, Mysql>`
   = note: required for `i32` to implement `FromSqlRow<diesel::sql_types::Text, Mysql>`
   = help: see issue #48214

This error message now points to the exact cause of the issue: You cannot deserialize an Text value into a i32 field. This attribute accepts one or more diesel backend type to check the struct definition against. It requires that the struct is using either both, #[derive(Queryable)] and #[derive(Selectable)] or #[derive(QueryableByName)].

Internal changes

Changes listed here are relevant for crates using the i-implement-a-third-party-backend-and-opt-into-breaking-changes feature flag. With Diesel 2.1 we have migrated some traits to use GAT. This affects the following traits:

  • RowGatWorkaround
  • ConnectionGatWorkaround
  • HasRawValue
  • HasBindCollector

These traits are removed in favour of generic associated types on the corresponding child trait.

Additionally we slightly relaxed one trait bound on BindCollector::push_bound_value to allow unsized values there as well.

v2.0.4

1 year ago

Fixed

  • Workaround the missing name resolution in rust-analyzer. This should fix type inference for some diesel queries. (It remains broken for queries containing .filter()/.inner_join()/.left_join(). These require fixes in rust-analyzer itself)
  • Fixed a bug that could lead to inserting null values instead of empty values for custom sqlite types
  • Fixed a bug that could lead to an unexpected panic while providing an out of bounds bind for sql_query in the sqlite backend
  • Fixed some mysql backend specific impl being behind the mysql instead of the mysql_backend feature flag

Added

  • Support for libsqlite3-sys 0.26

diesel_derives_v2.0.2

Fixed

  • Fixed a bug with our transaction manager implementation that caused by marking transactions as broken which could be recovered.
  • Fixed an issue with the combination of BoxableExpression and order clauses

v2.0.2

1 year ago

Fixed

  • Reverted a fix from the 2.0.1 release that breaks valid INSERT … ON CONFLICT queries
