View Source Ecto.Repo behaviour (Ecto v3.8.0)

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 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. 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 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

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. The path represents the database name while options are simply merged in.

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 init/2 repository callback:

def init(_type, config) do
  {:ok, Keyword.put(config, :url, System.get_env("DATABASE_URL"))}
end

shared-options

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 - When false, does not log the query
  • :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

telemetry-events

Telemetry events

There are two types of telemetry events. The ones emitted by Ecto and the ones that are adapter specific.

ecto-telemetry-events

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

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.

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 will 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 the other measurements

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 query parameters
  • :query - the query sent to the database as a string
  • :source - the source the query was made on (may be nil)
  • :options - extra options given to the repo operation under :telemetry_options

read-only-repositories

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 insert/2, insert_all/3, update_all/3, and friends will be defined.

If the struct has no primary key, Ecto.NoPrimaryKeyFieldError will be raised. If the struct has been removed prior to the call, Ecto.StaleEntryError will be raised. If more than one database operation is required, they're automatically wrapped in a transaction.

It returns {:ok, struct} if the struct has been successfully deleted or {:error, changeset} if there was a validation or a known constraint error. By default, constraint errors will raise the Ecto.ConstraintError exception, unless a changeset is given as the first argument with the relevant constraints declared in it (see Ecto.Changeset).

Inserts a struct defined via Ecto.Schema or a changeset.

In case a struct is given, the struct is converted into a changeset with all non-nil fields as part of the changeset.

In case a changeset is given, the changes in the changeset are merged with the struct fields, and all of them are sent to the database. If more than one database operation is required, they're automatically wrapped in a transaction.

It returns {:ok, struct} if the struct has been successfully inserted or {:error, changeset} if there was a validation or a known constraint error.

options

Options

  • :returning - selects which fields to return. It accepts a list of fields to be returned from the database. When true, returns all fields. When false, no extra fields are returned. It will always include all fields in read_after_writes as well as any autogenerated id. Not all databases support this option and it may not be available during upserts. See the "Upserts" section for more information.

  • :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 any schemas. Also, the @schema_prefix for the parent record will override all default @schema_prefixs set in any child schemas for associations.

  • :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.

  • :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" section at the module documentation for more options.

examples

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

Upserts

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 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 update_all/3. Similarly to 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)
assert ignored.id == nil

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. One possible mechanism to detect if an insert or nothing happened in case of on_conflict: :nothing is by checking the id field. id will be nil if the field is autogenerated by the database and no insert happened.

For actual upserts, where an insert or update may happen, the situation is slightly more complex, as the database does not actually inform us if an insert or update 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:

    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.

insert_all( schema_or_source, entries_or_query, opts )

View Source (optional)
@callback insert_all(
  schema_or_source :: binary() | {binary(), module()} | module(),
  entries_or_query ::
    [%{required(atom()) => value} | Keyword.t(value)] | Ecto.Query.t(),
  opts :: Keyword.t()
) :: {non_neg_integer(), nil | [term()]}
when value: term() | Ecto.Query.t()

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 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 insert/2. This is also consistent with 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

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" section at the module documentation for remaining options.

source-query

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

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,
  join: c in assoc(p, :comments),
  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

Upserts

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 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 update_all/3

Upserts map to "ON CONFLICT" on databases like Postgres and "ON DUPLICATE KEY" on databases such as MySQL.

return-values

Return values

By default, both Postgres and MySQL will return the number of entries inserted on 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

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

insert_or_update!(changeset, opts)

View Source (optional)

View Source (optional)
@callback insert_or_update(changeset :: Ecto.Changeset.t(), opts :: Keyword.t()) ::
  {:ok, Ecto.Schema.t()} | {:error, Ecto.Changeset.t()}

Inserts or updates a changeset depending on whether the struct is persisted or not.

The distinction whether to insert or update will be made on the Ecto.Schema.Metadata field :state. The :state is automatically set by Ecto when loading or building a schema.

Please note that for this to work, you will have to load existing structs from the database. So even if the struct exists, this won't work:

struct = %Post{id: "existing_id", ...}
MyRepo.insert_or_update changeset
# => {:error, changeset} # id already exists

options

Options

  • :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 any schemas. Also, the @schema_prefix for the parent record will override all default @schema_prefixs 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. Only applies to updates.
  • :stale_error_message - The message to add to the configured :stale_error_field when stale errors happen, defaults to "is stale". Only applies to updates.

See the "Shared options" section at the module documentation for more options.

load( schema_or_map, data )

View Source
@callback load(
  schema_or_map :: module() | map(),
  data :: map() | Keyword.t() | {list(), list()}
) :: Ecto.Schema.t() | map()

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, respectively.

The second argument data specifies fields and values that are to be loaded. It can be a map, a keyword list, or a {fields, values} tuple. Fields can be atoms or strings.

Fields that are not present in the schema (or types map) are ignored. If any of the values has invalid type, an error is raised.

To load data from non-database sources, use Ecto.embedded_load/3.

examples

Examples

iex> MyRepo.load(User, %{name: "Alice", age: 25})
%User{name: "Alice", age: 25}

iex> MyRepo.load(User, [name: "Alice", age: 25])
%User{name: "Alice", age: 25}

data can also take form of {fields, values}:

iex> MyRepo.load(User, {[:name, :age], ["Alice", 25]})
%User{name: "Alice", age: 25, ...}

The first argument can also be a types map:

iex> types = %{name: :string, age: :integer}
iex> MyRepo.load(types, %{name: "Alice", age: 25})
%{name: "Alice", age: 25}

This function is especially useful when parsing raw query results:

iex> result = Ecto.Adapters.SQL.query!(MyRepo, "SELECT * FROM users", [])
iex> Enum.map(result.rows, &MyRepo.load(User, {result.columns, &1}))
[%User{...}, ...]

  structs_or_struct_or_nil
when structs_or_struct_or_nil: [Ecto.Schema.t()] | Ecto.Schema.t() | nil

Preloads all associations on the given struct or structs.

This is similar to Ecto.Query.preload/3 except it allows you to preload structs after they have been fetched from the database.

In case the association was already loaded, preload won't attempt to reload it.

options

Options

  • :force - By default, Ecto won't preload associations that are already loaded. By setting this option to true, any existing association will be discarded and reloaded.
  • :in_parallel - If the preloads must be done in parallel. It can only be performed when we have more than one preload and the repository is not in a transaction. Defaults to true.
  • :prefix - the prefix to fetch preloads from. By default, queries will use the same prefix as the first struct in the given collection. This option allows the prefix to be changed.

See the "Shared options" section at the module documentation for more options.

examples

Examples

# Use a single atom to preload an association
posts = Repo.preload posts, :comments

# Use a list of atoms to preload multiple associations
posts = Repo.preload posts, [:comments, :authors]

# Use a keyword list to preload nested associations as well
posts = Repo.preload posts, [comments: [:replies, :likes], authors: []]

# You can mix atoms and keywords, but the atoms must come first
posts = Repo.preload posts, [:authors, comments: [:likes, replies: [:reactions]]]

# Use a keyword list to customize how associations are queried
posts = Repo.preload posts, [comments: from(c in Comment, order_by: c.published_at)]

# Use a two-element tuple for a custom query and nested association definition
query = from c in Comment, order_by: c.published_at
posts = Repo.preload posts, [comments: {query, [:replies, :likes]}]

The query given to preload may also preload its own associations.

Reloads a given schema or schema list from the database.

When using with lists, it is expected that all of the structs in the list belong to the same schema. Ordering is guaranteed to be kept. Results not found in the database will be returned as nil.

update(changeset, opts)

View Source (optional)
@callback update(changeset :: Ecto.Changeset.t(), opts :: Keyword.t()) ::
  {:ok, Ecto.Schema.t()} | {:error, Ecto.Changeset.t()}

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

Options

  • :returning - selects which fields to return. It accepts a list of fields to be returned from the database. When true, returns all fields. When false, no extra fields are returned. It will always include all fields in read_after_writes. Not all databases support this option.

  • :force - By default, if there are no changes in the changeset, 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 any schemas. Also, the @schema_prefix for the parent record will override all default @schema_prefixs 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".

If you are using the Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox in tests, note that even though each test is inside a transaction, in_transaction?/0 will only return true inside transactions explicitly created with transaction/2. This is done so the test environment mimics dev and prod.

If you are trying to debug transaction-related code while using Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox, it may be more helpful to configure the database to log all statements and consult those logs.

rollback(value)

  | {:error, Ecto.Multi.name(), any(), %{required(Ecto.Multi.name()) => any()}}

Runs the given function or Ecto.Multi inside a transaction.

use-with-function

Use with function

transaction/2 can be called with both a function of arity zero or one. The arity zero function will just be executed as is, while the arity one function will receive the repo of the transaction as its first argument, similar to Ecto.Multi.run/3.

If an unhandled error occurs the transaction will be rolled back and the error will bubble up from the transaction function. If no error occurred the transaction will be committed when the function returns. A transaction can be explicitly rolled back by calling 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}.

If 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 marked as tainted, guaranteeing nothing will be committed.

use-with-ecto-multi

Use with Ecto.Multi

Besides functions, transactions can be used with an Ecto.Multi struct. A transaction will be started, all operations applied and in case of success committed returning {:ok, changes}. In case of any errors the transaction will be rolled back and {:error, failed_operation, failed_value, changes_so_far} will be returned.

You can read more about using transactions with Ecto.Multi as well as see some examples in the Ecto.Multi documentation.

put_dynamic_repo(name_or_pid)

View Source
@callback put_dynamic_repo(name_or_pid :: atom() | pid()) :: atom() | pid()

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)

From this moment on, all future queries done by the current process will run on :tenant_foo.

@callback start_link(opts :: Keyword.t()) ::
  {:ok, pid()} | {:error, {:already_started, pid()}} | {:error, term()}

Starts any connection pooling or supervision and return {:ok, pid} or just :ok if nothing needs to be done.

Returns {:error, {:already_started, pid}} if the repo is already started or {:error, term} in case anything else goes wrong.

A user customizable callback invoked for query-based operations.

This callback can be used to further modify the query and options before it is transformed and sent to the database.

This callback is invoked for all query APIs, including the stream functions. It is also invoked for insert_all if a source query is given. It is not invoked for any of the other schema functions.

examples

Examples

Let's say you want to filter out records that were "soft-deleted" (have deleted_at column set) from all operations unless an admin is running the query; you can define the callback like this:

@impl true
def prepare_query(_operation, query, opts) do
  if opts[:admin] do
    {query, opts}
  else
    query = from(x in query, where: is_nil(x.deleted_at))
    {query, opts}
  end
end

And then execute the query:

Repo.all(query)              # only non-deleted records are returned
Repo.all(query, admin: true) # all records are returned

The callback will be invoked for all queries, including queries made from associations and preloads. It is not invoked for each individual join inside a query.
