r"""Define attributes on ORM-mapped classes that have "hybrid" behavior.

"hybrid" means the attribute has distinct behaviors defined at the
class level and at the instance level.

The :mod:`~sqlalchemy.ext.hybrid` extension provides a special form of
method decorator, is around 50 lines of code and has almost no
dependencies on the rest of SQLAlchemy.  It can, in theory, work with
any descriptor-based expression system.

Consider a mapping ``Interval``, representing integer ``start`` and ``end``
values. We can define higher level functions on mapped classes that produce SQL
expressions at the class level, and Python expression evaluation at the
instance level.  Below, each function decorated with :class:`.hybrid_method` or
:class:`.hybrid_property` may receive ``self`` as an instance of the class, or
as the class itself::

    from sqlalchemy import Column, Integer
    from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
    from sqlalchemy.orm import Session, aliased
    from sqlalchemy.ext.hybrid import hybrid_property, hybrid_method

    Base = declarative_base()

    class Interval(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'interval'

        id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
        start = Column(Integer, nullable=False)
        end = Column(Integer, nullable=False)

        def __init__(self, start, end):
            self.start = start
            self.end = end

        @hybrid_property
        def length(self):
            return self.end - self.start

        @hybrid_method
        def contains(self, point):
            return (self.start <= point) & (point <= self.end)

        @hybrid_method
        def intersects(self, other):
            return self.contains(other.start) | self.contains(other.end)

Above, the ``length`` property returns the difference between the
``end`` and ``start`` attributes.  With an instance of ``Interval``,
this subtraction occurs in Python, using normal Python descriptor
mechanics::

    >>> i1 = Interval(5, 10)
    >>> i1.length
    5

When dealing with the ``Interval`` class itself, the :class:`.hybrid_property`
descriptor evaluates the function body given the ``Interval`` class as
the argument, which when evaluated with SQLAlchemy expression mechanics
(here using the :attr:`.QueryableAttribute.expression` accessor)
returns a new SQL expression::

    >>> print(Interval.length.expression)
    interval."end" - interval.start

    >>> print(Session().query(Interval).filter(Interval.length > 10))
    SELECT interval.id AS interval_id, interval.start AS interval_start,
    interval."end" AS interval_end
    FROM interval
    WHERE interval."end" - interval.start > :param_1

ORM methods such as :meth:`_query.Query.filter_by`
generally use ``getattr()`` to
locate attributes, so can also be used with hybrid attributes::

    >>> print(Session().query(Interval).filter_by(length=5))
    SELECT interval.id AS interval_id, interval.start AS interval_start,
    interval."end" AS interval_end
    FROM interval
    WHERE interval."end" - interval.start = :param_1

The ``Interval`` class example also illustrates two methods,
``contains()`` and ``intersects()``, decorated with
:class:`.hybrid_method`. This decorator applies the same idea to
methods that :class:`.hybrid_property` applies to attributes.   The
methods return boolean values, and take advantage of the Python ``|``
and ``&`` bitwise operators to produce equivalent instance-level and
SQL expression-level boolean behavior::

    >>> i1.contains(6)
    True
    >>> i1.contains(15)
    False
    >>> i1.intersects(Interval(7, 18))
    True
    >>> i1.intersects(Interval(25, 29))
    False

    >>> print(Session().query(Interval).filter(Interval.contains(15)))
    SELECT interval.id AS interval_id, interval.start AS interval_start,
    interval."end" AS interval_end
    FROM interval
    WHERE interval.start <= :start_1 AND interval."end" > :end_1

    >>> ia = aliased(Interval)
    >>> print(Session().query(Interval, ia).filter(Interval.intersects(ia)))
    SELECT interval.id AS interval_id, interval.start AS interval_start,
    interval."end" AS interval_end, interval_1.id AS interval_1_id,
    interval_1.start AS interval_1_start, interval_1."end" AS interval_1_end
    FROM interval, interval AS interval_1
    WHERE interval.start <= interval_1.start
        AND interval."end" > interval_1.start
        OR interval.start <= interval_1."end"
        AND interval."end" > interval_1."end"

.. _hybrid_distinct_expression:

Defining Expression Behavior Distinct from Attribute Behavior
--------------------------------------------------------------

Our usage of the ``&`` and ``|`` bitwise operators above was
fortunate, considering our functions operated on two boolean values to
return a new one.   In many cases, the construction of an in-Python
function and a SQLAlchemy SQL expression have enough differences that
two separate Python expressions should be defined.  The
:mod:`~sqlalchemy.ext.hybrid` decorators define the
:meth:`.hybrid_property.expression` modifier for this purpose.   As an
example we'll define the radius of the interval, which requires the
usage of the absolute value function::

    from sqlalchemy import func

    class Interval(object):
        # ...

        @hybrid_property
        def radius(self):
            return abs(self.length) / 2

        @radius.expression
        def radius(cls):
            return func.abs(cls.length) / 2

Above the Python function ``abs()`` is used for instance-level
operations, the SQL function ``ABS()`` is used via the :data:`.func`
object for class-level expressions::

    >>> i1.radius
    2

    >>> print(Session().query(Interval).filter(Interval.radius > 5))
    SELECT interval.id AS interval_id, interval.start AS interval_start,
        interval."end" AS interval_end
    FROM interval
    WHERE abs(interval."end" - interval.start) / :abs_1 > :param_1

.. note:: When defining an expression for a hybrid property or method, the
   expression method **must** retain the name of the original hybrid, else
   the new hybrid with the additional state will be attached to the class
   with the non-matching name. To use the example above::

    class Interval(object):
        # ...

        @hybrid_property
        def radius(self):
            return abs(self.length) / 2

        # WRONG - the non-matching name will cause this function to be
        # ignored
        @radius.expression
        def radius_expression(cls):
            return func.abs(cls.length) / 2

   This is also true for other mutator methods, such as
   :meth:`.hybrid_property.update_expression`. This is the same behavior
   as that of the ``@property`` construct that is part of standard Python.

Defining Setters
----------------

Hybrid properties can also define setter methods.  If we wanted
``length`` above, when set, to modify the endpoint value::

    class Interval(object):
        # ...

        @hybrid_property
        def length(self):
            return self.end - self.start

        @length.setter
        def length(self, value):
            self.end = self.start + value

The ``length(self, value)`` method is now called upon set::

    >>> i1 = Interval(5, 10)
    >>> i1.length
    5
    >>> i1.length = 12
    >>> i1.end
    17

.. _hybrid_bulk_update:

Allowing Bulk ORM Update
------------------------

A hybrid can define a custom "UPDATE" handler for when using the
:meth:`_query.Query.update` method, allowing the hybrid to be used in the
SET clause of the update.

Normally, when using a hybrid with :meth:`_query.Query.update`, the SQL
expression is used as the column that's the target of the SET.  If our
``Interval`` class had a hybrid ``start_point`` that linked to
``Interval.start``, this could be substituted directly::

    session.query(Interval).update({Interval.start_point: 10})

However, when using a composite hybrid like ``Interval.length``, this
hybrid represents more than one column.   We can set up a handler that will
accommodate a value passed to :meth:`_query.Query.update` which can affect
this, using the :meth:`.hybrid_property.update_expression` decorator.
A handler that works similarly to our setter would be::

    class Interval(object):
        # ...

        @hybrid_property
        def length(self):
            return self.end - self.start

        @length.setter
        def length(self, value):
            self.end = self.start + value

        @length.update_expression
        def length(cls, value):
            return [
                (cls.end, cls.start + value)
            ]

Above, if we use ``Interval.length`` in an UPDATE expression as::

    session.query(Interval).update(
        {Interval.length: 25}, synchronize_session='fetch')

We'll get an UPDATE statement along the lines of::

    UPDATE interval SET end=start + :value

In some cases, the default "evaluate" strategy can't perform the SET
expression in Python; while the addition operator we're using above
is supported, for more complex SET expressions it will usually be necessary
to use either the "fetch" or False synchronization strategy as illustrated
above.

.. versionadded:: 1.2 added support for bulk updates to hybrid properties.

Working with Relationships
--------------------------

There's no essential difference when creating hybrids that work with
related objects as opposed to column-based data. The need for distinct
expressions tends to be greater.  The two variants we'll illustrate
are the "join-dependent" hybrid, and the "correlated subquery" hybrid.

Join-Dependent Relationship Hybrid
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Consider the following declarative
mapping which relates a ``User`` to a ``SavingsAccount``::

    from sqlalchemy import Column, Integer, ForeignKey, Numeric, String
    from sqlalchemy.orm import relationship
    from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
    from sqlalchemy.ext.hybrid import hybrid_property

    Base = declarative_base()

    class SavingsAccount(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'account'
        id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
        user_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('user.id'), nullable=False)
        balance = Column(Numeric(15, 5))

    class User(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'user'
        id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
        name = Column(String(100), nullable=False)

        accounts = relationship("SavingsAccount", backref="owner")

        @hybrid_property
        def balance(self):
            if self.accounts:
                return self.accounts[0].balance
            else:
                return None

        @balance.setter
        def balance(self, value):
            if not self.accounts:
                account = Account(owner=self)
            else:
                account = self.accounts[0]
            account.balance = value

        @balance.expression
        def balance(cls):
            return SavingsAccount.balance

The above hybrid property ``balance`` works with the first
``SavingsAccount`` entry in the list of accounts for this user.   The
in-Python getter/setter methods can treat ``accounts`` as a Python
list available on ``self``.

However, at the expression level, it's expected that the ``User`` class will
be used in an appropriate context such that an appropriate join to
``SavingsAccount`` will be present::

    >>> print(Session().query(User, User.balance).
    ...       join(User.accounts).filter(User.balance > 5000))
    SELECT "user".id AS user_id, "user".name AS user_name,
    account.balance AS account_balance
    FROM "user" JOIN account ON "user".id = account.user_id
    WHERE account.balance > :balance_1

Note however, that while the instance level accessors need to worry
about whether ``self.accounts`` is even present, this issue expresses
itself differently at the SQL expression level, where we basically
would use an outer join::

    >>> from sqlalchemy import or_
    >>> print (Session().query(User, User.balance).outerjoin(User.accounts).
    ...         filter(or_(User.balance < 5000, User.balance == None)))
    SELECT "user".id AS user_id, "user".name AS user_name,
    account.balance AS account_balance
    FROM "user" LEFT OUTER JOIN account ON "user".id = account.user_id
    WHERE account.balance <  :balance_1 OR account.balance IS NULL

Correlated Subquery Relationship Hybrid
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

We can, of course, forego being dependent on the enclosing query's usage
of joins in favor of the correlated subquery, which can portably be packed
into a single column expression. A correlated subquery is more portable, but
often performs more poorly at the SQL level. Using the same technique
illustrated at :ref:`mapper_column_property_sql_expressions`,
we can adjust our ``SavingsAccount`` example to aggregate the balances for
*all* accounts, and use a correlated subquery for the column expression::

    from sqlalchemy import Column, Integer, ForeignKey, Numeric, String
    from sqlalchemy.orm import relationship
    from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
    from sqlalchemy.ext.hybrid import hybrid_property
    from sqlalchemy import select, func

    Base = declarative_base()

    class SavingsAccount(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'account'
        id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
        user_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('user.id'), nullable=False)
        balance = Column(Numeric(15, 5))

    class User(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'user'
        id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
        name = Column(String(100), nullable=False)

        accounts = relationship("SavingsAccount", backref="owner")

        @hybrid_property
        def balance(self):
            return sum(acc.balance for acc in self.accounts)

        @balance.expression
        def balance(cls):
            return select([func.sum(SavingsAccount.balance)]).\
                    where(SavingsAccount.user_id==cls.id).\
                    label('total_balance')

The above recipe will give us the ``balance`` column which renders
a correlated SELECT::

    >>> print(s.query(User).filter(User.balance > 400))
    SELECT "user".id AS user_id, "user".name AS user_name
    FROM "user"
    WHERE (SELECT sum(account.balance) AS sum_1
    FROM account
    WHERE account.user_id = "user".id) > :param_1

.. _hybrid_custom_comparators:

Building Custom Comparators
---------------------------

The hybrid property also includes a helper that allows construction of
custom comparators. A comparator object allows one to customize the
behavior of each SQLAlchemy expression operator individually.  They
are useful when creating custom types that have some highly
idiosyncratic behavior on the SQL side.

.. note::  The :meth:`.hybrid_property.comparator` decorator introduced
   in this section **replaces** the use of the
   :meth:`.hybrid_property.expression` decorator.
   They cannot be used together.

The example class below allows case-insensitive comparisons on the attribute
named ``word_insensitive``::

    from sqlalchemy.ext.hybrid import Comparator, hybrid_property
    from sqlalchemy import func, Column, Integer, String
    from sqlalchemy.orm import Session
    from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base

    Base = declarative_base()

    class CaseInsensitiveComparator(Comparator):
        def __eq__(self, other):
            return func.lower(self.__clause_element__()) == func.lower(other)

    class SearchWord(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'searchword'
        id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
        word = Column(String(255), nullable=False)

        @hybrid_property
        def word_insensitive(self):
            return self.word.lower()

        @word_insensitive.comparator
        def word_insensitive(cls):
            return CaseInsensitiveComparator(cls.word)

Above, SQL expressions against ``word_insensitive`` will apply the ``LOWER()``
SQL function to both sides::

    >>> print(Session().query(SearchWord).filter_by(word_insensitive="Trucks"))
    SELECT searchword.id AS searchword_id, searchword.word AS searchword_word
    FROM searchword
    WHERE lower(searchword.word) = lower(:lower_1)

The ``CaseInsensitiveComparator`` above implements part of the
:class:`.ColumnOperators` interface.   A "coercion" operation like
lowercasing can be applied to all comparison operations (i.e. ``eq``,
``lt``, ``gt``, etc.) using :meth:`.Operators.operate`::

    class CaseInsensitiveComparator(Comparator):
        def operate(self, op, other):
            return op(func.lower(self.__clause_element__()), func.lower(other))

.. _hybrid_reuse_subclass:

Reusing Hybrid Properties across Subclasses
-------------------------------------------

A hybrid can be referred to from a superclass, to allow modifying
methods like :meth:`.hybrid_property.getter`, :meth:`.hybrid_property.setter`
to be used to redefine those methods on a subclass.  This is similar to
how the standard Python ``@property`` object works::

    class FirstNameOnly(Base):
        # ...

        first_name = Column(String)

        @hybrid_property
        def name(self):
            return self.first_name

        @name.setter
        def name(self, value):
            self.first_name = value

    class FirstNameLastName(FirstNameOnly):
        # ...

        last_name = Column(String)

        @FirstNameOnly.name.getter
        def name(self):
            return self.first_name + ' ' + self.last_name

        @name.setter
        def name(self, value):
            self.first_name, self.last_name = value.split(' ', 1)

Above, the ``FirstNameLastName`` class refers to the hybrid from
``FirstNameOnly.name`` to repurpose its getter and setter for the subclass.

When overriding :meth:`.hybrid_property.expression` and
:meth:`.hybrid_property.comparator` alone as the first reference to the
superclass, these names conflict with the same-named accessors on the class-
level :class:`.QueryableAttribute` object returned at the class level.  To
override these methods when referring directly to the parent class descriptor,
add the special qualifier :attr:`.hybrid_property.overrides`, which will de-
reference the instrumented attribute back to the hybrid object::

    class FirstNameLastName(FirstNameOnly):
        # ...

        last_name = Column(String)

        @FirstNameOnly.name.overrides.expression
        def name(cls):
            return func.concat(cls.first_name, ' ', cls.last_name)

.. versionadded:: 1.2 Added :meth:`.hybrid_property.getter` as well as the
   ability to redefine accessors per-subclass.


Hybrid Value Objects
--------------------

Note in our previous example, if we were to compare the ``word_insensitive``
attribute of a ``SearchWord`` instance to a plain Python string, the plain
Python string would not be coerced to lower case - the
``CaseInsensitiveComparator`` we built, being returned by
``@word_insensitive.comparator``, only applies to the SQL side.

A more comprehensive form of the custom comparator is to construct a *Hybrid
Value Object*. This technique applies the target value or expression to a value
object which is then returned by the accessor in all cases.   The value object
allows control of all operations upon the value as well as how compared values
are treated, both on the SQL expression side as well as the Python value side.
Replacing the previous ``CaseInsensitiveComparator`` class with a new
``CaseInsensitiveWord`` class::

    class CaseInsensitiveWord(Comparator):
        "Hybrid value representing a lower case representation of a word."

        def __init__(self, word):
            if isinstance(word, basestring):
                self.word = word.lower()
            elif isinstance(word, CaseInsensitiveWord):
                self.word = word.word
            else:
                self.word = func.lower(word)

        def operate(self, op, other):
            if not isinstance(other, CaseInsensitiveWord):
                other = CaseInsensitiveWord(other)
            return op(self.word, other.word)

        def __clause_element__(self):
            return self.word

        def __str__(self):
            return self.word

        key = 'word'
        "Label to apply to Query tuple results"

Above, the ``CaseInsensitiveWord`` object represents ``self.word``, which may
be a SQL function, or may be a Python native.   By overriding ``operate()`` and
``__clause_element__()`` to work in terms of ``self.word``, all comparison
operations will work against the "converted" form of ``word``, whether it be
SQL side or Python side. Our ``SearchWord`` class can now deliver the
``CaseInsensitiveWord`` object unconditionally from a single hybrid call::

    class SearchWord(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'searchword'
        id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
        word = Column(String(255), nullable=False)

        @hybrid_property
        def word_insensitive(self):
            return CaseInsensitiveWord(self.word)

The ``word_insensitive`` attribute now has case-insensitive comparison behavior
universally, including SQL expression vs. Python expression (note the Python
value is converted to lower case on the Python side here)::

    >>> print(Session().query(SearchWord).filter_by(word_insensitive="Trucks"))
    SELECT searchword.id AS searchword_id, searchword.word AS searchword_word
    FROM searchword
    WHERE lower(searchword.word) = :lower_1

SQL expression versus SQL expression::

    >>> sw1 = aliased(SearchWord)
    >>> sw2 = aliased(SearchWord)
    >>> print(Session().query(
    ...                    sw1.word_insensitive,
    ...                    sw2.word_insensitive).\
    ...                        filter(
    ...                            sw1.word_insensitive > sw2.word_insensitive
    ...                        ))
    SELECT lower(searchword_1.word) AS lower_1,
    lower(searchword_2.word) AS lower_2
    FROM searchword AS searchword_1, searchword AS searchword_2
    WHERE lower(searchword_1.word) > lower(searchword_2.word)

Python only expression::

    >>> ws1 = SearchWord(word="SomeWord")
    >>> ws1.word_insensitive == "sOmEwOrD"
    True
    >>> ws1.word_insensitive == "XOmEwOrX"
    False
    >>> print(ws1.word_insensitive)
    someword

The Hybrid Value pattern is very useful for any kind of value that may have
multiple representations, such as timestamps, time deltas, units of
measurement, currencies and encrypted passwords.

.. _hybrid_transformers:

Building Transformers
----------------------

A *transformer* is an object which can receive a :class:`_query.Query`
object and
return a new one.   The :class:`_query.Query` object includes a method
:meth:`.with_transformation` that returns a new :class:`_query.Query`
transformed by
the given function.

We can combine this with the :class:`.Comparator` class to produce one type
of recipe which can both set up the FROM clause of a query as well as assign
filtering criterion.

Consider a mapped class ``Node``, which assembles using adjacency list into a
hierarchical tree pattern::

    from sqlalchemy import Column, Integer, ForeignKey
    from sqlalchemy.orm import relationship
    from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
    Base = declarative_base()

    class Node(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'node'
        id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
        parent_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('node.id'))
        parent = relationship("Node", remote_side=id)

Suppose we wanted to add an accessor ``grandparent``.  This would return the
``parent`` of ``Node.parent``.  When we have an instance of ``Node``, this is
simple::

    from sqlalchemy.ext.hybrid import hybrid_property

    class Node(Base):
        # ...

        @hybrid_property
        def grandparent(self):
            return self.parent.parent

For the expression, things are not so clear.   We'd need to construct a
:class:`_query.Query` where we :meth:`_query.Query.join` twice along
``Node.parent`` to get to the ``grandparent``.   We can instead return a
transforming callable that we'll combine with the :class:`.Comparator` class to
receive any :class:`_query.Query` object, and return a new one that's joined to
the ``Node.parent`` attribute and filtered based on the given criterion::

    from sqlalchemy.ext.hybrid import Comparator

    class GrandparentTransformer(Comparator):
        def operate(self, op, other):
            def transform(q):
                cls = self.__clause_element__()
                parent_alias = aliased(cls)
                return q.join(parent_alias, cls.parent).\
                            filter(op(parent_alias.parent, other))
            return transform

    Base = declarative_base()

    class Node(Base):
        __tablename__ = 'node'
        id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
        parent_id = Column(Integer, ForeignKey('node.id'))
        parent = relationship("Node", remote_side=id)

        @hybrid_property
        def grandparent(self):
            return self.parent.parent

        @grandparent.comparator
        def grandparent(cls):
            return GrandparentTransformer(cls)

The ``GrandparentTransformer`` overrides the core :meth:`.Operators.operate`
method at the base of the :class:`.Comparator` hierarchy to return a query-
transforming callable, which then runs the given comparison operation in a
particular context. Such as, in the example above, the ``operate`` method is
called, given the :attr:`.Operators.eq` callable as well as the right side of
the comparison ``Node(id=5)``.  A function ``transform`` is then returned which
will transform a :class:`_query.Query` first to join to ``Node.parent``,
then to
compare ``parent_alias`` using :attr:`.Operators.eq` against the left and right
sides, passing into :meth:`_query.Query.filter`:

.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

    >>> from sqlalchemy.orm import Session
    >>> session = Session()
    {sql}>>> session.query(Node).\
    ...        with_transformation(Node.grandparent==Node(id=5)).\
    ...        all()
    SELECT node.id AS node_id, node.parent_id AS node_parent_id
    FROM node JOIN node AS node_1 ON node_1.id = node.parent_id
    WHERE :param_1 = node_1.parent_id
    {stop}

We can modify the pattern to be more verbose but flexible by separating the
"join" step from the "filter" step.  The tricky part here is ensuring that
successive instances of ``GrandparentTransformer`` use the same
:class:`.AliasedClass` object against ``Node``.  Below we use a simple
memoizing approach that associates a ``GrandparentTransformer`` with each
class::

    class Node(Base):

        # ...

        @grandparent.comparator
        def grandparent(cls):
            # memoize a GrandparentTransformer
            # per class
            if '_gp' not in cls.__dict__:
                cls._gp = GrandparentTransformer(cls)
            return cls._gp

    class GrandparentTransformer(Comparator):

        def __init__(self, cls):
            self.parent_alias = aliased(cls)

        @property
        def join(self):
            def go(q):
                return q.join(self.parent_alias, Node.parent)
            return go

        def operate(self, op, other):
            return op(self.parent_alias.parent, other)

.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

    {sql}>>> session.query(Node).\
    ...            with_transformation(Node.grandparent.join).\
    ...            filter(Node.grandparent==Node(id=5))
    SELECT node.id AS node_id, node.parent_id AS node_parent_id
    FROM node JOIN node AS node_1 ON node_1.id = node.parent_id
    WHERE :param_1 = node_1.parent_id
    {stop}

The "transformer" pattern is an experimental pattern that starts to make usage
of some functional programming paradigms. While it's only recommended for
advanced and/or patient developers, there's probably a whole lot of amazing
things it can be used for.
