sqlalchemy.sql.elements.FunctionFilter

class documentation

class FunctionFilter(ColumnElement):

View In Hierarchy

Represent a function FILTER clause.

This is a special operator against aggregate and window functions, which controls which rows are passed to it. It's supported only by certain database backends.

Invocation of .FunctionFilter is via .FunctionElement.filter:

func.count(1).filter(True)
New in version 1.0.0.

def __init__(self, func, *criterion):

Produce a .FunctionFilter object against a function.

Used against aggregate and window functions, for database backends that support the "FILTER" clause.

E.g.:

from sqlalchemy import funcfilter
funcfilter(func.count(1), MyClass.name == 'some name')

Would produce "COUNT(1) FILTER (WHERE myclass.name = 'some name')".

This function is also available from the ~.expression.func construct itself via the .FunctionElement.filter method.

New in version 1.0.0.

.FunctionElement.filter

def filter(self, *criterion):

Produce an additional FILTER against the function.

This method adds additional criteria to the initial criteria set up by .FunctionElement.filter.

Multiple criteria are joined together at SQL render time via AND.

def over(self, partition_by=None, order_by=None, range_=None, rows=None):

Produce an OVER clause against this filtered function.

Used against aggregate or so-called "window" functions, for database backends that support window functions.

The expression:

func.rank().filter(MyClass.y > 5).over(order_by='x')

is shorthand for:

from sqlalchemy import over, funcfilter
over(funcfilter(func.rank(), MyClass.y > 5), order_by='x')

See _expression.over for a full description.

def self_group(self, against=None):
overrides sqlalchemy.sql.expression.ColumnElement.self_group

Apply a 'grouping' to this _expression.ClauseElement.

This method is overridden by subclasses to return a "grouping" construct, i.e. parenthesis. In particular it's used by "binary" expressions to provide a grouping around themselves when placed into a larger expression, as well as by _expression.select constructs when placed into the FROM clause of another _expression.select. (Note that subqueries should be normally created using the _expression.Select.alias method, as many platforms require nested SELECT statements to be named).

As expressions are composed together, the application of self_group is automatic - end-user code should never need to use this method directly. Note that SQLAlchemy's clause constructs take operator precedence into account - so parenthesis might not be needed, for example, in an expression like x OR (y AND z) - AND takes precedence over OR.

The base self_group method of _expression.ClauseElement just returns self.
