Always test the structure of queries by viewing the SQL to ensure a particular structure does what's expected! **Changing the Entities** :meth:`.Query.from_self` also includes the ability to modify what columns are being queried. In our example, we want ``User.id`` to be queried by the inner query, so that we can join to the ``Address`` entity on the outside, but we only wanted the outer query to return the ``Address.email`` column:: q = session.query(User).filter(User.name.like('e%')).\\ limit(5).from_self(Address.email).\\ join(User.addresses).filter(Address.email.like('q%')) yielding: .. sourcecode:: sql SELECT address.email AS address_email FROM (SELECT "user".id AS user_id, "user".name AS user_name FROM "user" WHERE "user".name LIKE :name_1 LIMIT :param_1) AS anon_1 JOIN address ON anon_1.user_id = address.user_id WHERE address.email LIKE :email_1 **Looking out for Inner / Outer Columns** Keep in mind that when referring to columns that originate from inside the subquery, we need to ensure they are present in the columns clause of the subquery itself; this is an ordinary aspect of SQL. For example, if we wanted to load from a joined entity inside the subquery using :func:`.contains_eager`, we need to add those columns. Below illustrates a join of ``Address`` to ``User``, then a subquery, and then we'd like :func:`.contains_eager` to access the ``User`` columns:: q = session.query(Address).join(Address.user).\\ filter(User.name.like('e%')) q = q.add_entity(User).from_self().\\ options(contains_eager(Address.user)) We use :meth:`.Query.add_entity` above **before** we call :meth:`.Query.from_self` so that the ``User`` columns are present in the inner subquery, so that they are available to the :func:`.contains_eager` modifier we are using on the outside, producing: .. sourcecode:: sql SELECT anon_1.address_id AS anon_1_address_id, anon_1.address_email AS anon_1_address_email, anon_1.address_user_id AS anon_1_address_user_id, anon_1.user_id AS anon_1_user_id, anon_1.user_name AS anon_1_user_name FROM ( SELECT address.id AS address_id, address.email AS address_email, address.user_id AS address_user_id, "user".id AS user_id, "user".name AS user_name FROM address JOIN "user" ON "user".id = address.user_id WHERE "user".name LIKE :name_1) AS anon_1 If we didn't call ``add_entity(User)``, but still asked :func:`.contains_eager` to load the ``User`` entity, it would be forced to add the table on the outside without the correct join criteria - note the ``anon1, "user"`` phrase at the end: .. sourcecode:: sql -- incorrect query SELECT anon_1.address_id AS anon_1_address_id, anon_1.address_email AS anon_1_address_email, anon_1.address_user_id AS anon_1_address_user_id, "user".id AS user_id, "user".name AS user_name FROM ( SELECT address.id AS address_id, address.email AS address_email, address.user_id AS address_user_id FROM address JOIN "user" ON "user".id = address.user_id WHERE "user".name LIKE :name_1) AS anon_1, "user" :param \*entities: optional list of entities which will replace those being selected.

The most common usage of :meth:`~.Query.join` is to create a JOIN along this relationship, using the ``User.addresses`` attribute as an indicator for how this should occur:: q = session.query(User).join(User.addresses) Where above, the call to :meth:`~.Query.join` along ``User.addresses`` will result in SQL equivalent to:: SELECT user.* FROM user JOIN address ON user.id = address.user_id In the above example we refer to ``User.addresses`` as passed to :meth:`~.Query.join` as the *on clause*, that is, it indicates how the "ON" portion of the JOIN should be constructed. For a single-entity query such as the one above (i.e. we start by selecting only from ``User`` and nothing else), the relationship can also be specified by its string name:: q = session.query(User).join("addresses") :meth:`~.Query.join` can also accommodate multiple "on clause" arguments to produce a chain of joins, such as below where a join across four related entities is constructed:: q = session.query(User).join("orders", "items", "keywords") The above would be shorthand for three separate calls to :meth:`~.Query.join`, each using an explicit attribute to indicate the source entity:: q = session.query(User).\\ join(User.orders).\\ join(Order.items).\\ join(Item.keywords) **Joins to a Target Entity or Selectable** A second form of :meth:`~.Query.join` allows any mapped entity or core selectable construct as a target. In this usage, :meth:`~.Query.join` will attempt to create a JOIN along the natural foreign key relationship between two entities:: q = session.query(User).join(Address) The above calling form of :meth:`~.Query.join` will raise an error if either there are no foreign keys between the two entities, or if there are multiple foreign key linkages between them. In the above calling form, :meth:`~.Query.join` is called upon to create the "on clause" automatically for us. The target can be any mapped entity or selectable, such as a :class:`.Table`:: q = session.query(User).join(addresses_table) **Joins to a Target with an ON Clause** The third calling form allows both the target entity as well as the ON clause to be passed explicitly. Suppose for example we wanted to join to ``Address`` twice, using an alias the second time. We use :func:`~sqlalchemy.orm.aliased` to create a distinct alias of ``Address``, and join to it using the ``target, onclause`` form, so that the alias can be specified explicitly as the target along with the relationship to instruct how the ON clause should proceed:: a_alias = aliased(Address) q = session.query(User).\\ join(User.addresses).\\ join(a_alias, User.addresses).\\ filter(Address.email_address=='ed@foo.com').\\ filter(a_alias.email_address=='ed@bar.com') Where above, the generated SQL would be similar to:: SELECT user.* FROM user JOIN address ON user.id = address.user_id JOIN address AS address_1 ON user.id=address_1.user_id WHERE address.email_address = :email_address_1 AND address_1.email_address = :email_address_2 The two-argument calling form of :meth:`~.Query.join` also allows us to construct arbitrary joins with SQL-oriented "on clause" expressions, not relying upon configured relationships at all. Any SQL expression can be passed as the ON clause when using the two-argument form, which should refer to the target entity in some way as well as an applicable source entity:: q = session.query(User).join(Address, User.id==Address.user_id) .. versionchanged:: 0.7 In SQLAlchemy 0.6 and earlier, the two argument form of :meth:`~.Query.join` requires the usage of a tuple: ``query(User).join((Address, User.id==Address.user_id))``\ . This calling form is accepted in 0.7 and further, though is not necessary unless multiple join conditions are passed to a single :meth:`~.Query.join` call, which itself is also not generally necessary as it is now equivalent to multiple calls (this wasn't always the case). **Advanced Join Targeting and Adaption** There is a lot of flexibility in what the "target" can be when using :meth:`~.Query.join`. As noted previously, it also accepts :class:`.Table` constructs and other selectables such as :func:`.alias` and :func:`.select` constructs, with either the one or two-argument forms:: addresses_q = select([Address.user_id]).\\ where(Address.email_address.endswith("@bar.com")).\\ alias() q = session.query(User).\\ join(addresses_q, addresses_q.c.user_id==User.id) :meth:`~.Query.join` also features the ability to *adapt* a :meth:`~sqlalchemy.orm.relationship` -driven ON clause to the target selectable. Below we construct a JOIN from ``User`` to a subquery against ``Address``, allowing the relationship denoted by ``User.addresses`` to *adapt* itself to the altered target:: address_subq = session.query(Address).\\ filter(Address.email_address == 'ed@foo.com').\\ subquery() q = session.query(User).join(address_subq, User.addresses) Producing SQL similar to:: SELECT user.* FROM user JOIN ( SELECT address.id AS id, address.user_id AS user_id, address.email_address AS email_address FROM address WHERE address.email_address = :email_address_1 ) AS anon_1 ON user.id = anon_1.user_id The above form allows one to fall back onto an explicit ON clause at any time:: q = session.query(User).\\ join(address_subq, User.id==address_subq.c.user_id) **Controlling what to Join From** While :meth:`~.Query.join` exclusively deals with the "right" side of the JOIN, we can also control the "left" side, in those cases where it's needed, using :meth:`~.Query.select_from`. Below we construct a query against ``Address`` but can still make usage of ``User.addresses`` as our ON clause by instructing the :class:`.Query` to select first from the ``User`` entity:: q = session.query(Address).select_from(User).\\ join(User.addresses).\\ filter(User.name == 'ed') Which will produce SQL similar to:: SELECT address.* FROM user JOIN address ON user.id=address.user_id WHERE user.name = :name_1 **Constructing Aliases Anonymously** :meth:`~.Query.join` can construct anonymous aliases using the ``aliased=True`` flag. This feature is useful when a query is being joined algorithmically, such as when querying self-referentially to an arbitrary depth:: q = session.query(Node).\\ join("children", "children", aliased=True) When ``aliased=True`` is used, the actual "alias" construct is not explicitly available. To work with it, methods such as :meth:`.Query.filter` will adapt the incoming entity to the last join point:: q = session.query(Node).\\ join("children", "children", aliased=True).\\ filter(Node.name == 'grandchild 1') When using automatic aliasing, the ``from_joinpoint=True`` argument can allow a multi-node join to be broken into multiple calls to :meth:`~.Query.join`, so that each path along the way can be further filtered:: q = session.query(Node).\\ join("children", aliased=True).\\ filter(Node.name='child 1').\\ join("children", aliased=True, from_joinpoint=True).\\ filter(Node.name == 'grandchild 1') The filtering aliases above can then be reset back to the original ``Node`` entity using :meth:`~.Query.reset_joinpoint`:: q = session.query(Node).\\ join("children", "children", aliased=True).\\ filter(Node.name == 'grandchild 1').\\ reset_joinpoint().\\ filter(Node.name == 'parent 1) For an example of ``aliased=True``, see the distribution example :ref:`examples_xmlpersistence` which illustrates an XPath-like query system using algorithmic joins. :param \*props: A collection of one or more join conditions, each consisting of a relationship-bound attribute or string relationship name representing an "on clause", or a single target entity, or a tuple in the form of ``(target, onclause)``.

The expression evaluator currently doesn't account for differing string collations between the database and Python. :param update_args: Optional dictionary, if present will be passed to the underlying :func:`.update` construct as the ``**kw`` for the object. May be used to pass dialect-specific arguments such as ``mysql_limit``, as well as other special arguments such as :paramref:`~sqlalchemy.sql.expression.update.preserve_parameter_order`. .. versionadded:: 1.0.0 :return: the count of rows matched as returned by the database's "row count" feature. .. warning:: **Additional Caveats for bulk query updates** * The method does **not** offer in-Python cascading of relationships - it is assumed that ON UPDATE CASCADE is configured for any foreign key references which require it, otherwise the database may emit an integrity violation if foreign key references are being enforced. After the UPDATE, dependent objects in the :class:`.Session` which were impacted by an ON UPDATE CASCADE may not contain the current state; this issue is resolved once the :class:`.Session` is expired, which normally occurs upon :meth:`.Session.commit` or can be forced by using :meth:`.Session.expire_all`. * The ``'fetch'`` strategy results in an additional SELECT statement emitted and will significantly reduce performance. * The ``'evaluate'`` strategy performs a scan of all matching objects within the :class:`.Session`; if the contents of the :class:`.Session` are expired, such as via a proceeding :meth:`.Session.commit` call, **this will result in SELECT queries emitted for every matching object**. * The method supports multiple table updates, as detailed in :ref:`multi_table_updates`, and this behavior does extend to support updates of joined-inheritance and other multiple table mappings. However, the **join condition of an inheritance mapper is not automatically rendered**. Care must be taken in any multiple-table update to explicitly include the joining condition between those tables, even in mappings where this is normally automatic. E.g. if a class ``Engineer`` subclasses ``Employee``, an UPDATE of the ``Engineer`` local table using criteria against the ``Employee`` local table might look like:: session.query(Engineer).\\ filter(Engineer.id == Employee.id).\\ filter(Employee.name == 'dilbert').\\ update({"engineer_type": "programmer"}) * The :meth:`.MapperEvents.before_update` and :meth:`.MapperEvents.after_update` events **are not invoked from this method**. Instead, the :meth:`.SessionEvents.after_bulk_update` method is provided to act upon a mass UPDATE of entity rows. .. seealso:: :meth:`.Query.delete` :ref:`inserts_and_updates` - Core SQL tutorial """ update_args = update_args or {} update_op = persistence.BulkUpdate.factory( self, synchronize_session, values, update_args) update_op.exec_() return update_op.rowcount def _compile_context(self, labels=True): if self.dispatch.before_compile: for fn in self.dispatch.before_compile: new_query = fn(self) if new_query is not None: self = new_query context = QueryContext(self) if context.statement is not None: return context context.labels = labels context._for_update_arg = self._for_update_arg for entity in self._entities: entity.setup_context(self, context) for rec in context.create_eager_joins: strategy = rec[0] strategy(*rec[1:]) if context.from_clause: # "load from explicit FROMs" mode, # i.e. when select_from() or join() is used context.froms = list(context.from_clause) # else "load from discrete FROMs" mode, # i.e. when each _MappedEntity has its own FROM if self._enable_single_crit: self._adjust_for_single_inheritance(context) if not context.primary_columns: if self._only_load_props: raise sa_exc.InvalidRequestError( "No column-based properties specified for " "refresh operation.
