- = Mysql2 - A modern, simple and very fast Mysql library for Ruby - binding to libmysql
2
-
3
- The Mysql2 gem is meant to serve the extremely common use-case of connecting, querying and iterating on results.
4
- Some database libraries out there serve as direct 1:1 mappings of the already complex C API's available.
5
- This one is not.
6
-
7
- It also forces the use of UTF-8 [or binary] for the connection [and all strings in 1.9, unless Encoding.default_internal is set then it'll convert from UTF-8 to that encoding] and uses encoding-aware MySQL API calls where it can.
8
-
9
- The API consists of two clases:
10
-
11
- Mysql2::Client - your connection to the database
12
-
13
- Mysql2::Result - returned from issuing a #query on the connection. It includes Enumerable.
14
-
15
- == Installing
16
-
17
- gem install mysql2
18
-
19
- You may have to specify --with-mysql-config=/some/random/path/bin/mysql_config
20
-
21
- == Usage
22
-
23
- Connect to a database:
24
-
25
- # this takes a hash of options, almost all of which map directly
26
- # to the familiar database.yml in rails
27
- # See http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/ConnectionAdapters/MysqlAdapter.html
28
- client = Mysql2::Client.new(:host => "localhost", :username => "root")
29
-
30
- Then query it:
31
-
32
- results = client.query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE group='githubbers'")
33
-
34
- Need to escape something first?
35
-
36
- escaped = client.escape("gi'thu\"bbe\0r's")
37
- results = client.query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE group='#{escaped}'")
38
-
39
- Finally, iterate over the results:
40
-
41
- results.each do |row|
42
- # conveniently, row is a hash
43
- # the keys are the fields, as you'd expect
44
- # the values are pre-built ruby primitives mapped from their corresponding field types in MySQL
45
- # Here's an otter: http://farm1.static.flickr.com/130/398077070_b8795d0ef3_b.jpg
46
- end
47
-
48
- Or, you might just keep it simple:
49
-
50
- client.query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE group='githubbers'").each do |row|
51
- # do something with row, it's ready to rock
52
- end
53
-
54
- How about with symbolized keys?
55
-
56
- # NOTE: the :symbolize_keys and future options will likely move to the #query method soon
57
- client.query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE group='githubbers'").each(:symbolize_keys => true) do |row|
58
- # do something with row, it's ready to rock
59
- end
60
-
61
- == Cascading config
62
-
63
- The default config hash is at:
64
-
65
- Mysql2::Client.default_query_options
66
-
67
- which defaults to:
68
-
69
- {:async => false, :as => :hash, :symbolize_keys => false}
70
-
71
- that can be used as so:
72
-
73
- # these are the defaults all Mysql2::Client instances inherit
74
- Mysql2::Client.default_query_options.merge!(:as => :array)
75
-
76
- or
77
-
78
- # this will change the defaults for all future results returned by the #query method _for this connection only_
79
- c = Mysql2::Client.new
80
- c.query_options.merge!(:symbolize_keys => true)
81
-
82
- or
83
-
84
- # this will set the options for the Mysql2::Result instance returned from the #query method
85
- c = Mysql2::Client.new
86
- c.query(sql, :symbolize_keys => true)
87
-
88
- == Result types
89
-
90
- === Array of Arrays
91
-
92
- Pass the :as => :array option to any of the above methods of configuration
93
-
94
- === Array of Hashes
95
-
96
- The default result type is set to :hash, but you can override a previous setting to something else with :as => :hash
97
-
98
- === Others...
99
-
100
- I may add support for :as => :csv or even :as => :json to allow for *much* more efficient generation of those data types from result sets.
101
- If you'd like to see either of these (or others), open an issue and start bugging me about it ;)
102
-
103
- === Timezones
104
-
105
- Mysql2 now supports two timezone options:
106
-
107
- :database_timezone - this is the timezone Mysql2 will assume fields are already stored as, and will use this when creating the initial Time objects in ruby
108
- :application_timezone - this is the timezone Mysql2 will convert to before finally handing back to the caller
109
-
110
- In other words, if :database_timezone is set to :utc - Mysql2 will create the Time objects using Time.utc(...) from the raw value libmysql hands over initially.
111
- Then, if :application_timezone is set to say - :local - Mysql2 will then convert the just-created UTC Time object to local time.
112
-
113
- Both options only allow two values - :local or :utc - with the exception that :application_timezone can be [and defaults to] nil
114
-
115
- === Casting "boolean" columns
116
-
117
- You can now tell Mysql2 to cast tinyint(1) fields to boolean values in Ruby with the :cast_booleans option.
118
-
119
- client = Mysql2::Client.new
120
- result = client.query("SELECT * FROM table_with_boolean_field", :cast_booleans => true)
121
-
122
- === Async
123
-
124
- Mysql2::Client takes advantage of the MySQL C API's (undocumented) non-blocking function mysql_send_query for *all* queries.
125
- But, in order to take full advantage of it in your Ruby code, you can do:
126
-
127
- client.query("SELECT sleep(5)", :async => true)
128
-
129
- Which will return nil immediately. At this point you'll probably want to use some socket monitoring mechanism
130
- like EventMachine or even IO.select. Once the socket becomes readable, you can do:
131
-
132
- # result will be a Mysql2::Result instance
133
- result = client.async_result
134
-
135
- NOTE: Because of the way MySQL's query API works, this method will block until the result is ready.
136
- So if you really need things to stay async, it's best to just monitor the socket with something like EventMachine.
137
- If you need multiple query concurrency take a look at using a connection pool.
138
-
139
- === Row Caching
140
-
141
- By default, Mysql2 will cache rows that have been created in Ruby (since this happens lazily).
142
- This is especially helpful since it saves the cost of creating the row in Ruby if you were to iterate over the collection again.
143
-
144
- If you only plan on using each row once, then it's much more efficient to disable this behavior by setting the :cache_rows option to false.
145
- This would be helpful if you wanted to iterate over the results in a streaming manner. Meaning the GC would cleanup rows you don't need anymore as you're iterating over the result set.
146
-
147
- == ActiveRecord
148
-
149
- To use the ActiveRecord driver, all you should need to do is have this gem installed and set the adapter in your database.yml to "mysql2".
150
- That was easy right? :)
151
-
152
- == Asynchronous ActiveRecord
153
-
154
- You can also use Mysql2 with asynchronous Rails (first introduced at http://www.mikeperham.com/2010/04/03/introducing-phat-an-asynchronous-rails-app/) by
155
- setting the adapter in your database.yml to "em_mysql2". You must be running Ruby 1.9, thin and the rack-fiber_pool middleware for it to work.
156
-
157
- == Sequel
158
-
159
- The Sequel adapter was pulled out into Sequel core (will be part of the next release) and can be used by specifying the "mysql2://" prefix to your connection specification.
160
-
161
- == EventMachine
162
-
163
- The mysql2 EventMachine deferrable api allows you to make async queries using EventMachine,
164
- while specifying callbacks for success for failure. Here's a simple example:
165
-
166
- require 'mysql2/em'
167
-
168
- EM.run do
169
- client1 = Mysql2::EM::Client.new
170
- defer1 = client1.query "SELECT sleep(3) as first_query"
171
- defer1.callback do |result|
172
- puts "Result: #{result.to_a.inspect}"
173
- end
174
-
175
- client2 = Mysql2::EM::Client.new
176
- defer2 = client2.query "SELECT sleep(1) second_query"
177
- defer2.callback do |result|
178
- puts "Result: #{result.to_a.inspect}"
179
- end
180
- end
181
-
182
- == Lazy Everything
183
-
184
- Well... almost ;)
185
-
186
- Field name strings/symbols are shared across all the rows so only one object is ever created to represent the field name for an entire dataset.
187
-
188
- Rows themselves are lazily created in ruby-land when an attempt to yield it is made via #each.
189
- For example, if you were to yield 4 rows from a 100 row dataset, only 4 hashes will be created. The rest will sit and wait in C-land until you want them (or when the GC goes to cleanup your Mysql2::Result instance).
190
- Now say you were to iterate over that same collection again, this time yielding 15 rows - the 4 previous rows that had already been turned into ruby hashes would be pulled from an internal cache, then 11 more would be created and stored in that cache.
191
- Once the entire dataset has been converted into ruby objects, Mysql2::Result will free the Mysql C result object as it's no longer needed.
192
-
193
- This caching behavior can be disabled by setting the :cache_rows option to false.
194
-
195
- As for field values themselves, I'm workin on it - but expect that soon.
196
-
197
- == Compatibility
198
-
199
- The specs pass on my system (SL 10.6.3, x86_64) in these rubies:
200
-
201
- * 1.8.7-p249
202
- * ree-1.8.7-2010.01
203
- * 1.9.1-p378
204
- * ruby-trunk
205
- * rbx-head - broken at the moment, working with the rbx team for a solution
206
-
207
- The ActiveRecord driver should work on 2.3.5 and 3.0
208
-
209
- == Yeah... but why?
210
-
211
- Someone: Dude, the Mysql gem works fiiiiiine.
212
-
213
- Me: It sure does, but it only hands you nil and strings for field values. Leaving you to convert
214
- them into proper Ruby types in Ruby-land - which is slow as balls.
215
-
216
-
217
- Someone: OK fine, but do_mysql can already give me back values with Ruby objects mapped to MySQL types.
218
-
219
- Me: Yep, but it's API is considerably more complex *and* can be ~2x slower.
220
-
221
- == Benchmarks
222
-
223
- Performing a basic "SELECT * FROM" query on a table with 30k rows and fields of nearly every Ruby-representable data type,
224
- then iterating over every row using an #each like method yielding a block:
225
-
226
- # These results are from the query_with_mysql_casting.rb script in the benchmarks folder
227
- user system total real
