defmodule Ecto.Repo do
@moduledoc """
Defines a repository.
A repository maps to an underlying data store, controlled by the
adapter. For example, Ecto ships with a Postgres adapter that
stores data into a PostgreSQL database.
When used, the repository expects the `:otp_app` and `:adapter` as
option. The `:otp_app` should point to an OTP application that has
the repository configuration. For example, the repository:
defmodule Repo do
use Ecto.Repo,
otp_app: :my_app,
adapter: Ecto.Adapters.Postgres
end
Could be configured with:
config :my_app, Repo,
database: "ecto_simple",
username: "postgres",
password: "postgres",
hostname: "localhost"
Most of the configuration that goes into the `config` is specific
to the adapter. For this particular example, you can check
[`Ecto.Adapters.Postgres`](https://hexdocs.pm/ecto_sql/Ecto.Adapters.Postgres.html)
for more information. In spite of this, the following configuration values
are shared across all adapters:
* `:name`- The name of the Repo supervisor process
* `:priv` - the directory where to keep repository data, like
migrations, schema and more. Defaults to "priv/YOUR_REPO".
It must always point to a subdirectory inside the priv directory
* `:url` - an URL that specifies storage information. Read below
for more information
* `:log` - the log level used when logging the query with Elixir's
Logger. Can be any of `Logger.level/0` values or `false`. If false,
disables logging for that repository. Defaults to `:debug`
* `:pool_size` - the size of the pool used by the connection module.
Defaults to `10`
* `:telemetry_prefix` - we recommend adapters to publish events
using the [Telemetry](`:telemetry`) library. By default, the telemetry prefix
is based on the module name, so if your module is called
`MyApp.Repo`, the prefix will be `[:my_app, :repo]`. See the
"Telemetry Events" section to see which events we recommend
adapters to publish. Note that if you have multiple databases, you
should keep the `:telemetry_prefix` consistent for each repo and
use the `:repo` property in the event metadata for distinguishing
between repos.
* `:stacktrace`- when true, publishes the stacktrace in telemetry events
and allows more advanced logging.
## URLs
Repositories by default support URLs. For example, the configuration
above could be rewritten to:
config :my_app, Repo,
url: "ecto://postgres:postgres@localhost/ecto_simple"
The schema can be of any value and the path represents the database name.
The URL will be used generate the relevant Repo configuration values, such
as `:database`, `:username`, `:password`, `:hostname` and `:port`. These
values take precedence over those already specified in the Repo's configuration.
URL can include query parameters to override shared and adapter-specific
options, like `ssl`, `timeout` and `pool_size`. The following example
shows how to pass these configuration values:
config :my_app, Repo,
url: "ecto://postgres:postgres@localhost/ecto_simple?ssl=true&pool_size=10"
In case the URL needs to be dynamically configured, for example by
reading a system environment variable, such can be done via the
`c:init/2` repository callback:
def init(_type, config) do
{:ok, Keyword.put(config, :url, System.get_env("DATABASE_URL"))}
end
## Shared options
Almost all of the repository functions outlined in this module accept the following
options:
* `:timeout` - The time in milliseconds (as an integer) to wait for the query call to
finish. `:infinity` will wait indefinitely (default: `15_000`)
* `:log` - Can be any of the `Logger.level/0` values or `false`. If `false`,
logging is disabled. Defaults to the configured Repo logger level
* `:telemetry_event` - The telemetry event name to dispatch the event under.
See the next section for more information
* `:telemetry_options` - Extra options to attach to telemetry event name.
See the next section for more information
## Adapter-Specific Errors
Many of the functions in this module may raise adapter-specific errors, such as `PostgrexError`.
This can happen, for example, when the underlying database cannot execute the specified query.
## Telemetry events
There are two types of telemetry events. The ones emitted by Ecto and the
ones that are adapter specific.
### Ecto telemetry events
The following events are emitted by all Ecto repositories:
* `[:ecto, :repo, :init]` - it is invoked whenever a repository starts.
The measurement is a single `system_time` entry in native unit. The
metadata is the `:repo` and all initialization options under `:opts`.
### Adapter-specific events
We recommend adapters to publish certain `Telemetry` events listed below.
Those events will use the `:telemetry_prefix` outlined above which defaults
to `[:my_app, :repo]`.
For instance, to receive all query events published by a repository called
`MyApp.Repo`, one would define a module:
defmodule MyApp.Telemetry do
def handle_event([:my_app, :repo, :query], measurements, metadata, config) do
IO.inspect binding()
end
end
Then, in the `Application.start/2` callback, attach the handler to this event using
a unique handler id:
:ok = :telemetry.attach("my-app-handler-id", [:my_app, :repo, :query], &MyApp.Telemetry.handle_event/4, %{})
For details, see [the telemetry documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/telemetry/).
Below we list all events developers should expect from Ecto. All examples
below consider a repository named `MyApp.Repo`:
#### `[:my_app, :repo, :query]`
This event should be invoked on every query sent to the adapter, including
queries that are related to the transaction management.
The `:measurements` map may include the following, all given in the
`:native` time unit:
* `:idle_time` - the time the connection spent waiting before being checked out for the query
* `:queue_time` - the time spent waiting to check out a database connection
* `:query_time` - the time spent executing the query
* `:decode_time` - the time spent decoding the data received from the database
* `:total_time` - the sum of (`queue_time`, `query_time`, and `decode_time`)️
All measurements are given in the `:native` time unit. You can read more
about it in the docs for `System.convert_time_unit/3`.
A telemetry `:metadata` map including the following fields. Each database
adapter may emit different information here. For Ecto.SQL databases, it
will look like this:
* `:type` - the type of the Ecto query. For example, for Ecto.SQL
databases, it would be `:ecto_sql_query`
* `:repo` - the Ecto repository
* `:result` - the query result
* `:params` - the dumped query parameters (formatted for database drivers like Postgrex)
* `:cast_params` - the casted query parameters (normalized before dumping)
* `:query` - the query sent to the database as a string
* `:source` - the source the query was made on (may be `nil`)
* `:stacktrace` - the stacktrace information, if enabled, or `nil`
* `:options` - extra options given to the repo operation under
`:telemetry_options`
## Read-only repositories
You can mark a repository as read-only by passing the `:read_only`
flag on `use`:
use Ecto.Repo, otp_app: ..., adapter: ..., read_only: true
By passing the `:read_only` option, none of the functions that perform
write operations, such as `c:insert/2`, `c:insert_all/3`, `c:update_all/3`,
and friends will be defined.

Loads `data` into a schema or a map.
The first argument can be a a schema module or a map (of types).
The first argument determines the return value: a struct or a map,

Fields can be atoms or strings.
Fields that are not present in the schema (or `types` map) are ignored.

Sets the dynamic repository to be used in further interactions.
Sometimes you may want a single Ecto repository to talk to
many different database instances. By default, when you call
`MyApp.Repo.start_link/1`, it will start a repository with
name `MyApp.Repo`. But if you want to start multiple repositories,
you can give each of them a different name:
MyApp.Repo.start_link(name: :tenant_foo, hostname: "foo.example.com")
MyApp.Repo.start_link(name: :tenant_bar, hostname: "bar.example.com")
You can also start repositories without names by explicitly
setting the name to nil:
MyApp.Repo.start_link(name: nil, hostname: "temp.example.com")
However, once the repository is started, you can't directly interact with
it, since all operations in `MyApp.Repo` are sent by default to the repository
named `MyApp.Repo`. You can change the default repo at compile time with:
use Ecto.Repo, default_dynamic_repo: :name_of_repo
Or you can change it anytime at runtime by calling `put_dynamic_repo/1`:
MyApp.Repo.put_dynamic_repo(:tenant_foo)

run on `:tenant_foo`.

Inserts all entries into the repository.
It expects a schema module (`MyApp.User`) or a source (`"users"`) or
both (`{"users", MyApp.User}`) as the first argument. The second
argument is a list of entries to be inserted, either as keyword
lists or as maps. The keys of the entries are the field names as
atoms and the value should be the respective value for the field
type or, optionally, an `Ecto.Query` that returns a single entry
with a single value.
It returns a tuple containing the number of entries
and any returned result as second element. If the database
does not support RETURNING in INSERT statements or no
return result was selected, the second element will be `nil`.
When a schema module is given, the entries given will be properly dumped
before being sent to the database. If the schema primary key has type
`:id` or `:binary_id`, it will be handled either at the adapter
or the storage layer. However any other primary key type or autogenerated
value, like `Ecto.UUID` and timestamps, won't be autogenerated when
using `c:insert_all/3`. You must set those fields explicitly. This is by
design as this function aims to be a more direct way to insert data into
the database without the conveniences of `c:insert/2`. This is also
consistent with `c:update_all/3` that does not handle auto generated
values as well.
It is also not possible to use `insert_all` to insert across multiple
tables, therefore associations are not supported.
If a source is given, without a schema module, the given fields are passed
as is to the adapter.
## Options
* `:returning` - selects which fields to return. When `true`,
returns all fields in the given schema. May be a list of
fields, where a struct is still returned but only with the
given fields. Or `false`, where nothing is returned (the default).
This option is not supported by all databases.
* `:prefix` - The prefix to run the query on (such as the schema path
in Postgres or the database in MySQL). This overrides the prefix set
in the query and any `@schema_prefix` set in the schema.
* `:on_conflict` - It may be one of `:raise` (the default), `:nothing`,
`:replace_all`, `{:replace_all_except, fields}`, `{:replace, fields}`,
a keyword list of update instructions or an `Ecto.Query`
query for updates. See the "Upserts" section for more information.
* `:conflict_target` - A list of column names to verify for conflicts.
It is expected those columns to have unique indexes on them that may conflict.
If none is specified, the conflict target is left up to the database.
It may also be `{:unsafe_fragment, binary_fragment}` to pass any
expression to the database without any sanitization, this is useful
for partial index or index with expressions, such as
`{:unsafe_fragment, "(coalesce(firstname, ""), coalesce(lastname, "")) WHERE middlename IS NULL"}` for
`ON CONFLICT (coalesce(firstname, ""), coalesce(lastname, "")) WHERE middlename IS NULL` SQL query.
* `:placeholders` - A map with placeholders. This feature is not supported
by all databases. See the "Placeholders" section for more information.
See the ["Shared options"](#module-shared-options) section at the module
documentation for remaining options.
## Source query
A query can be given instead of a list with entries. This query needs to select
into a map containing only keys that are available as writeable columns in the
schema.
## Examples
MyRepo.insert_all(Post, [[title: "My first post"], [title: "My second post"]])
MyRepo.insert_all(Post, [%{title: "My first post"}, %{title: "My second post"}])
query = from p in Post,

select: %{
author_id: p.author_id,
posts: count(p.id, :distinct),
interactions: sum(p.likes) + count(c.id)
},
group_by: p.author_id
MyRepo.insert_all(AuthorStats, query)
## Upserts
`c:insert_all/3` provides upserts (update or inserts) via the `:on_conflict`
option. The `:on_conflict` option supports the following values:
* `:raise` - raises if there is a conflicting primary key or unique index
* `:nothing` - ignores the error in case of conflicts
* `:replace_all` - replace **all** values on the existing row with the values
in the schema/changeset, including fields not explicitly set in the changeset,
such as IDs and autogenerated timestamps (`inserted_at` and `updated_at`).
Do not use this option if you have auto-incrementing primary keys, as they
will also be replaced. You most likely want to use `{:replace_all_except, [:id]}`
or `{:replace, fields}` explicitly instead. This option requires a schema
* `{:replace_all_except, fields}` - same as above except the given fields
are not replaced. This option requires a schema
* `{:replace, fields}` - replace only specific columns. This option requires
`:conflict_target`
* a keyword list of update instructions - such as the one given to
`c:update_all/3`, for example: `[set: [title: "new title"]]`
* an `Ecto.Query` that will act as an `UPDATE` statement, such as the
one given to `c:update_all/3`
Upserts map to "ON CONFLICT" on databases like Postgres and "ON DUPLICATE KEY"
on databases such as MySQL.
## Return values
By default, both Postgres and MySQL will return the number of entries
inserted on `c:insert_all/3`. However, when the `:on_conflict` option
is specified, Postgres and MySQL will return different results.
Postgres will only count a row if it was affected and will
return 0 if no new entry was added.
MySQL will return, at a minimum, the number of entries attempted. For example,
if `:on_conflict` is set to `:nothing`, MySQL will return
the number of entries attempted to be inserted, even when no entry
was added.
Also note that if `:on_conflict` is a query, MySQL will return
the number of attempted entries plus the number of entries modified
by the UPDATE query.
## Placeholders
Passing in a map for the `:placeholders` allows you to send less
data over the wire when you have many entries with the same value
for a field. To use a placeholder, replace its value in each of your
entries with `{:placeholder, key}`, where `key` is the key you
are using in the `:placeholders` option map. For example:
placeholders = %{blob: large_blob_of_text(...)}
entries = [
%{title: "v1", body: {:placeholder, :blob}},
%{title: "v2", body: {:placeholder, :blob}}
]
Repo.insert_all(Post, entries, placeholders: placeholders)
Keep in mind that:
* placeholders cannot be nested in other values. For example, you
cannot put a placeholder inside an array. Instead, the whole
array has to be the placeholder
* a placeholder key can only be used with columns of the same type
* placeholders require a database that supports index parameters,
so they are not currently compatible with MySQL

* `:stale_error_field` - The field where stale errors will be added in
the returning changeset. This option can be used to avoid raising
`Ecto.StaleEntryError`.
* `:stale_error_message` - The message to add to the configured
`:stale_error_field` when stale errors happen, defaults to "is stale".
See the ["Shared options"](#module-shared-options) section at the module

## Examples
A typical example is calling `MyRepo.insert/1` with a struct
and acting on the return value:
case MyRepo.insert %Post{title: "Ecto is great"} do
{:ok, struct} -> # Inserted with success
{:error, changeset} -> # Something went wrong
end
## Upserts
`c:insert/2` provides upserts (update or inserts) via the `:on_conflict`
option. The `:on_conflict` option supports the following values:
* `:raise` - raises if there is a conflicting primary key or unique index
* `:nothing` - ignores the error in case of conflicts
* `:replace_all` - replace **all** values on the existing row with the values
in the schema/changeset, including fields not explicitly set in the changeset,
such as IDs and autogenerated timestamps (`inserted_at` and `updated_at`).
Do not use this option if you have auto-incrementing primary keys, as they
will also be replaced. You most likely want to use `{:replace_all_except, [:id]}`
or `{:replace, fields}` explicitly instead. This option requires a schema
* `{:replace_all_except, fields}` - same as above except the given fields are
not replaced. This option requires a schema
* `{:replace, fields}` - replace only specific columns. This option requires
`:conflict_target`
* a keyword list of update instructions - such as the one given to
`c:update_all/3`, for example: `[set: [title: "new title"]]`
* an `Ecto.Query` that will act as an `UPDATE` statement, such as the
one given to `c:update_all/3`. Similarly to `c:update_all/3`, auto
generated values, such as timestamps are not automatically updated.
If the struct cannot be found, `Ecto.StaleEntryError` will be raised.
Upserts map to "ON CONFLICT" on databases like Postgres and "ON DUPLICATE KEY"
on databases such as MySQL.
As an example, imagine `:title` is marked as a unique column in
the database:
{:ok, inserted} = MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"})
Now we can insert with the same title but do nothing on conflicts:
{:ok, ignored} = MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"}, on_conflict: :nothing)
Because we used `on_conflict: :nothing`, instead of getting an error,
we got `{:ok, struct}`. However the returned struct does not reflect
the data in the database. If the primary key is auto-generated by the
database, the primary key in the `ignored` record will be nil if there
was no insertion. For example, if you use the default primary key
(which has name `:id` and a type of `:id`), then `ignored.id` above
will be nil if there was no insertion.
If your id is generated by your application (typically the case for
`:binary_id`) or if you pass another value for `:on_conflict`, detecting
if an insert or update happened is slightly more complex, as the database
does not actually inform us what happened. Let's insert a post with the
same title but use a query to update the body column in case of conflicts:
# In Postgres (it requires the conflict target for updates):
on_conflict = [set: [body: "updated"]]
{:ok, updated} = MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"},
on_conflict: on_conflict, conflict_target: :title)
# In MySQL (conflict target is not supported):
on_conflict = [set: [title: "updated"]]
{:ok, updated} = MyRepo.insert(%Post{id: inserted.id, title: "updated"},
on_conflict: on_conflict)
In the examples above, even though it returned `:ok`, we do not know
if we inserted new data or if we updated only the `:on_conflict` fields.
In case an update happened, the data in the struct most likely does
not match the data in the database. For example, autogenerated fields
such as `inserted_at` will point to now rather than the time the
struct was actually inserted.
If you need to guarantee the data in the returned struct mirrors the
database, you have three options:
* Use `on_conflict: :replace_all`, although that will replace all
fields in the database with the ones in the struct/changeset,
including autogenerated fields such as `inserted_at` and `updated_at`:
MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"},
on_conflict: :replace_all, conflict_target: :title)
* Specify `read_after_writes: true` in your schema for choosing
fields that are read from the database after every operation.
Or pass `returning: true` to `insert` to read all fields back.
(Note that it will only read from the database if at least one
field is updated).
MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"}, returning: true,
on_conflict: on_conflict, conflict_target: :title)
* Alternatively, read the data again from the database in a separate
query. This option requires the primary key to be generated by the
database:
{:ok, updated} = MyRepo.insert(%Post{title: "this is unique"}, on_conflict: on_conflict)
Repo.get(Post, updated.id)
Because of the inability to know if the struct is up to date or not,
inserting a struct with associations and using the `:on_conflict` option
at the same time is not recommended, as Ecto will be unable to actually
track the proper status of the association.

Updates a changeset using its primary key.
A changeset is required as it is the only mechanism for
tracking dirty changes. Only the fields present in the `changes` part
of the changeset are sent to the database. Any other, in-memory
changes done to the schema are ignored. If more than one database
operation is required, they're automatically wrapped in a transaction.
If the struct has no primary key, `Ecto.NoPrimaryKeyFieldError`
will be raised.
If the struct cannot be found, `Ecto.StaleEntryError` will be raised.
It returns `{:ok, struct}` if the struct has been successfully
updated or `{:error, changeset}` if there was a validation
or a known constraint error.
## Options
* `:returning` - selects which fields to return. It accepts a list
of fields to be returned from the database. When `true`, returns
all fields, including those marked as `load_in_query: false`. When
`false`, no extra fields are returned. It will always include all
fields in `read_after_writes`. Be aware that the fields returned
from the database overwrite what was supplied by the user. Any field
not returned by the database will be present with the original value
supplied by the user. Not all databases support this option.
* `:force` - By default, if there are no changes in the changeset,
`c:update/2` is a no-op. By setting this option to true, update
callbacks will always be executed, even if there are no changes
(including timestamps).
* `:prefix` - The prefix to run the query on (such as the schema path
in Postgres or the database in MySQL). This overrides the prefix set
in the query and any `@schema_prefix` set on any schemas. Also, the
`@schema_prefix` for the parent record will override all default
`@schema_prefix`s set in any child schemas for associations.
* `:stale_error_field` - The field where stale errors will be added in
the returning changeset. This option can be used to avoid raising
`Ecto.StaleEntryError`.
* `:stale_error_message` - The message to add to the configured
`:stale_error_field` when stale errors happen, defaults to "is stale".

## Ecto.Adapter.Transaction
@optional_callbacks transaction: 2, in_transaction?: 0, rollback: 1
@doc """
Runs the given function or `Ecto.Multi` inside a transaction.
## Use with function
`c:transaction/2` can be called with both a function of arity
zero or one. The arity zero function will just be executed as is:
import Ecto.Changeset, only: [change: 2]
MyRepo.transaction(fn ->
MyRepo.update!(change(alice, balance: alice.balance - 10))
MyRepo.update!(change(bob, balance: bob.balance + 10))
end)
While the arity one function will receive the repo of the transaction
as its first argument:
MyRepo.transaction(fn repo ->
repo.insert!(%Post{})
end)
If an Elixir exception occurs the transaction will be rolled back
and the exception will bubble up from the transaction function.
If no exception occurs, the transaction is committed when the
function returns. A transaction can be explicitly rolled back
by calling `c:rollback/1`, this will immediately leave the function
and return the value given to `rollback` as `{:error, value}`.
A successful transaction returns the value returned by the function
wrapped in a tuple as `{:ok, value}`.
### Nested transactions
If `c:transaction/2` is called inside another transaction, the function
is simply executed, without wrapping the new transaction call in any
way. If there is an error in the inner transaction and the error is
rescued, or the inner transaction is rolled back, the whole outer
transaction is aborted, guaranteeing nothing will be committed.
Below is an example of how rollbacks work with nested transactions:
{:error, :rollback} =
MyRepo.transaction(fn ->
{:error, :posting_not_allowed} =
MyRepo.transaction(fn ->
# This function call causes the following to happen:
#
# * the transaction is rolled back in the database,
# * code execution is stopped within the current function,
# * and the value, passed to `rollback/1` is returned from
# `MyRepo.transaction/1` as the second element in the error
# tuple.
#
MyRepo.rollback(:posting_not_allowed)
# `rollback/1` stops execution, so code here won't be run
end)
# The transaction here is now aborted and any further
# operation will raise an exception.
end)
See the "Aborted transactions" section for more examples of aborted
transactions and how to handle them.
In practice, managing nested transactions can become complex quickly.
For this reason, Ecto provides `Ecto.Multi` for composing transactions.
## Use with Ecto.Multi
`c:transaction/2` also accepts the `Ecto.Multi` struct as first argument.
`Ecto.Multi` allows you to compose transactions operations, step by step,
and manage what happens in case of success or failure.
When an `Ecto.Multi` is given to this function, a transaction will be started,
all operations applied and in case of success committed returning `{:ok, changes}`:
# With Ecto.Multi
Ecto.Multi.new()
|> Ecto.Multi.insert(:post, %Post{})
|> MyRepo.transaction
In case of any errors the transaction will be rolled back and
`{:error, failed_operation, failed_value, changes_so_far}` will be returned.
Explore the `Ecto.Multi` documentation to learn more and find detailed examples.
## Aborted transactions
When an operation inside a transaction fails, the transaction is aborted in the database.
For instance, if you attempt an insert that violates a unique constraint, the insert fails
and the transaction is aborted. In such cases, any further operation inside the transaction
will raise exceptions.
Take the following transaction as an example:
Repo.transaction(fn repo ->
case repo.insert(changeset) do
{:ok, post} ->
repo.insert(%Status{value: "success"})
{:error, changeset} ->
repo.insert(%Status{value: "failure"})
end
end)
If the changeset is valid, but the insert operation fails due to a database constraint,
the subsequent `repo.insert(%Failure{})` operation will raise an exception because the
database has already aborted the transaction and thus making the operation invalid.
In Postgres, the exception would look like this:
** (Postgrex.Error) ERROR 25P02 (in_failed_sql_transaction) current transaction is aborted, commands ignored until end of transaction block
If the changeset is invalid before it reaches the database due to a validation error,
no statement is sent to the database, an `:error` tuple is returned, and `repo.insert(%Failure{})`
operation will execute as usual.
We have two options to deal with such scenarios:
If you don't want to change the semantics of your code, you can also use the savepoints
feature by passing the `:mode` option like this: `repo.insert(changeset, mode: :savepoint)`.
In case of an exception, the transaction will rollback to the savepoint and prevent
the transaction from failing.
Another alternative is to handle this operation outside of the transaction.
For example, you can choose to perform an explicit `repo.rollback` call in the
`{:error, changeset}` clause and then perform the `repo.insert(%Failure{})` outside
of the transaction. You might also consider using `Ecto.Multi`, as they automatically
rollback whenever an operation fails.
## Working with processes
The transaction is per process. A separate process started inside a
transaction won't be part of the same transaction and will use a separate
connection altogether.
When using the `Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox` in tests, while it may be
possible to share the connection between processes, the parent process
will typically hold the connection until the transaction completes. This
may lead to a deadlock if the child process attempts to use the same connection.
See the docs for
[`Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox`](https://hexdocs.pm/ecto_sql/Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox.html)
for more information.
