def _convert_field_to_tz(self, field_name, tzname):

Undocumented

def _prepare_tzname_delta(self, tzname):

Undocumented

def adapt_datefield_value(self, value):
Transform a date value to an object compatible with what is expected by the backend driver for date columns.
def adapt_datetimefield_value(self, value):
Transform a datetime value to an object compatible with what is expected by the backend driver for datetime columns.
def adapt_decimalfield_value(self, value, max_digits=None, decimal_places=None):
Transform a decimal.Decimal value to an object compatible with what is expected by the backend driver for decimal (numeric) columns.
def adapt_ipaddressfield_value(self, value):
Transform a string representation of an IP address into the expected type for the backend driver.
def adapt_timefield_value(self, value):
Transform a time value to an object compatible with what is expected by the backend driver for time columns.
def bulk_insert_sql(self, fields, placeholder_rows):

Undocumented

def date_extract_sql(self, lookup_type, field_name):
Given a lookup_type of 'year', 'month', or 'day', return the SQL that extracts a value from the given date field field_name.
def date_trunc_sql(self, lookup_type, field_name, tzname=None):

Given a lookup_type of 'year', 'month', or 'day', return the SQL that truncates the given date or datetime field field_name to a date object with only the given specificity.

If tzname is provided, the given value is truncated in a specific timezone.

def datetime_cast_date_sql(self, field_name, tzname):
Return the SQL to cast a datetime value to date value.
def datetime_cast_time_sql(self, field_name, tzname):
Return the SQL to cast a datetime value to time value.
def datetime_extract_sql(self, lookup_type, field_name, tzname):
Given a lookup_type of 'year', 'month', 'day', 'hour', 'minute', or 'second', return the SQL that extracts a value from the given datetime field field_name.
def datetime_trunc_sql(self, lookup_type, field_name, tzname):
Given a lookup_type of 'year', 'month', 'day', 'hour', 'minute', or 'second', return the SQL that truncates the given datetime field field_name to a datetime object with only the given specificity.
def deferrable_sql(self):
Return the SQL to make a constraint "initially deferred" during a CREATE TABLE statement.
def distinct_sql(self, fields, params):
Return an SQL DISTINCT clause which removes duplicate rows from the result set. If any fields are given, only check the given fields for duplicates.
def explain_query_prefix(self, format=None, **options):
def fetch_returned_insert_rows(self, cursor):
Given a cursor object that has just performed an INSERT...RETURNING statement into a table, return the tuple of returned data.
def ignore_conflicts_suffix_sql(self, ignore_conflicts=None):
def last_executed_query(self, cursor, sql, params):

Return a string of the query last executed by the given cursor, with placeholders replaced with actual values.

sql is the raw query containing placeholders and params is the sequence of parameters. These are used by default, but this method exists for database backends to provide a better implementation according to their own quoting schemes.

def lookup_cast(self, lookup_type, internal_type=None):
Return the string to use in a query when performing lookups ("contains", "like", etc.). It should contain a '%s' placeholder for the column being searched against.
def max_name_length(self):

Return the maximum length of an identifier.

The maximum length of an identifier is 63 by default, but can be changed by recompiling PostgreSQL after editing the NAMEDATALEN macro in src/include/pg_config_manual.h.

This implementation returns 63, but can be overridden by a custom database backend that inherits most of its behavior from this one.

def no_limit_value(self):
Return the value to use for the LIMIT when we are wanting "LIMIT infinity". Return None if the limit clause can be omitted in this case.
def prep_for_iexact_query(self, x):

Undocumented

def prepare_sql_script(self, sql):

Take an SQL script that may contain multiple lines and return a list of statements to feed to successive cursor.execute() calls.

Since few databases are able to process raw SQL scripts in a single cursor.execute() call and PEP 249 doesn't talk about this use case, the default implementation is conservative.

def quote_name(self, name):
Return a quoted version of the given table, index, or column name. Do not quote the given name if it's already been quoted.
def return_insert_columns(self, fields):
For backends that support returning columns as part of an insert query, return the SQL and params to append to the INSERT query. The returned fragment should contain a format string to hold the appropriate column.
def sequence_reset_by_name_sql(self, style, sequences):

Return a list of the SQL statements required to reset sequences passed in sequences.

The style argument is a Style object as returned by either color_style() or no_style() in django.core.management.color.

def sequence_reset_sql(self, style, model_list):

Return a list of the SQL statements required to reset sequences for the given models.

The style argument is a Style object as returned by either color_style() or no_style() in django.core.management.color.

def set_time_zone_sql(self):

Return the SQL that will set the connection's time zone.

Return '' if the backend doesn't support time zones.

def sql_flush(self, style, tables, *, reset_sequences=False, allow_cascade=False):

Return a list of SQL statements required to remove all data from the given database tables (without actually removing the tables themselves).

The style argument is a Style object as returned by either color_style() or no_style() in django.core.management.color.

If reset_sequences is True, the list includes SQL statements required to reset the sequences.

The allow_cascade argument determines whether truncation may cascade to tables with foreign keys pointing the tables being truncated. PostgreSQL requires a cascade even if these tables are empty.

def subtract_temporals(self, internal_type, lhs, rhs):
def tablespace_sql(self, tablespace, inline=False):

Return the SQL that will be used in a query to define the tablespace.

Return '' if the backend doesn't support tablespaces.

If inline is True, append the SQL to a row; otherwise append it to the entire CREATE TABLE or CREATE INDEX statement.

def time_trunc_sql(self, lookup_type, field_name, tzname=None):

Given a lookup_type of 'hour', 'minute' or 'second', return the SQL that truncates the given time or datetime field field_name to a time object with only the given specificity.

If tzname is provided, the given value is truncated in a specific timezone.

def unification_cast_sql(self, output_field):
Given a field instance, return the SQL that casts the result of a union to that type. The resulting string should contain a '%s' placeholder for the expression being cast.
