Custom SQL query extension

This Postchain extension provides an GTX module which can make custom SQL queries against the database.

Registration

pmc subnode-image add --name custom_sql_query \
  --url registry.gitlab.com/chromaway/core/custom-sql-query-extension/chromaway/custom-sql-query-extension \
  --digest ${DIGEST} \
  --image-description "Custom SQL query" \
  -gtx net.postchain.gtx.extensions.customsqlquery.CustomSQLQueryGTXModuleFactory

This will generate a proposal which need to be voted on.

Configuration

Enable and configure it by putting this into chromia.yml:

blockchains:
  my-rell-dapp:
    module: main
    config:
      gtx:
        modules:
          - "net.postchain.gtx.extensions.customsqlquery.CustomSQLQueryGTXModuleFactory"
      customsqlquery:
        queries:
          query1: >
            SELECT col1, col2, col3, col4, col5
            FROM [table:my_entity]
            WHERE col1 = :arg1:text: AND col2 = :arg2:integer: AND col3 = :arg3:big_integer: AND
            col4 = :arg4:byte_array:
          query2: >
            SELECT col1, col2, col3, col4, col5
            FROM [table:other.entity1],[table:other.entity2]
            WHERE col1 = :arg1:text: AND col2 = :arg2:integer: AND col3 = :arg3:big_integer: AND
            col4 = :arg4:byte_array:

To access the tables of Rell entities and objects, use the syntax [table:mount_name], which will be replaced with the proper chain ID prefix. This can be used multiple times in order to join multiple tables.

Arguments are specified using the syntax :arg_name:type: where type can be one of these Rell types:

• integer
• big_integer
• text
• byte_array

The response of queries will be an array of dictionaries representing the SQL result set.
