Scala SQL DSL

Scala implementation of a really small subset of the SQL language

To understand how to write internal DSLs in Scala I started implementing a small subset of the SQL language.

Implemented:

• select operation with fields
• where clause with (typed) equals, in, and, or
• order
• A ‘renderer’ to create a SQL String from the given Query object

Scala SQL DSL lets you write stuff like:

scala> val q = select ("*") from ("user") where (("name","peter") and (("active", true) or ("role", "admin")))
scala> q.sql
res0: java.lang.String = select * from user where (name = 'peter' and (active = true or role = 'admin'))

Prerequisites

• buildr 1.4.0
• scala 2.8.0.r19281-b20091026023411 (should work with more recent versions as well)

Usage

The spec contains various examples on how to write queries. But basically you start by:

• Import all functions/implicits in the QueryBuilder object: import QueryBuilder._
• Import the AnsiSqlRenderer object: AnsiSqlRenderer._
