from . import event, exc
from .pool import Pool
from .engine import Connectable, Engine, Dialect
from .sql.base import SchemaEventTarget


class DDLEvents(event.Events):
    """
    Define event listeners for schema objects,
    that is, :class:`.SchemaItem` and other :class:`.SchemaEventTarget`
    subclasses, including :class:`.MetaData`, :class:`.Table`,
    :class:`.Column`.

    :class:`.MetaData` and :class:`.Table` support events
    specifically regarding when CREATE and DROP
    DDL is emitted to the database.

    Attachment events are also provided to customize
    behavior whenever a child schema element is associated
    with a parent, such as, when a :class:`.Column` is associated
    with its :class:`.Table`, when a :class:`.ForeignKeyConstraint`
    is associated with a :class:`.Table`, etc.

    Example using the ``after_create`` event::

        from sqlalchemy import event
        from sqlalchemy import Table, Column, Metadata, Integer

        m = MetaData()
        some_table = Table('some_table', m, Column('data', Integer))

        def after_create(target, connection, **kw):
            connection.execute("ALTER TABLE %s SET name=foo_%s" %
                                    (target.name, target.name))

        event.listen(some_table, "after_create", after_create)

    DDL events integrate closely with the
    :class:`.DDL` class and the :class:`.DDLElement` hierarchy
    of DDL clause constructs, which are themselves appropriate
    as listener callables::

        from sqlalchemy import DDL
        event.listen(
            some_table,
            "after_create",
            DDL("ALTER TABLE %(table)s SET name=foo_%(table)s")
        )

    The methods here define the name of an event as well
    as the names of members that are passed to listener
    functions.

    The methods here define the name of an event as well as the names of

    An event listener can be associated with any :class:`.Connectable`
    class or instance, such as an :class:`.Engine`, e.g.::

        from sqlalchemy import event, create_engine

        def before_cursor_execute(conn, cursor, statement, parameters, context,

                log.info("Received statement: %s" % statement)

    The :meth:`.before_execute` and :meth:`.before_cursor_execute`
    events can also be established with the ``retval=True`` flag, which
    allows modification of the statement and parameters to be sent
    to the database.  The :meth:`.before_cursor_execute` event is
    particularly useful here to add ad-hoc string transformations, such
    as comments, to all executions::

        from sqlalchemy.engine import Engine

            statement = statement + " -- some comment"
            return statement, parameters

    .. note:: :class:`.ConnectionEvents` can be established on any
       combination of :class:`.Engine`, :class:`.Connection`, as well
       as instances of each of those classes.  Events across all
       four scopes will fire off for a given instance of
       :class:`.Connection`.  However, for performance reasons, the
       :class:`.Connection` object determines at instantiation time
       whether or not its parent :class:`.Engine` has event listeners
       established.   Event listeners added to the :class:`.Engine`
       class or to an instance of :class:`.Engine` *after* the instantiation
       of a dependent :class:`.Connection` instance will usually
       *not* be available on that :class:`.Connection` instance.  The newly
       added listeners will instead take effect for :class:`.Connection`
       instances created subsequent to those event listeners being
       established on the parent :class:`.Engine` class or instance.

    :param retval=False: Applies to the :meth:`.before_execute` and
      :meth:`.before_cursor_execute` events only.  When True, the
      user-defined event function must have a return value, which
      is a tuple of parameters that replace the given statement
      and parameters.  See those methods for a description of

        To support the wide variety of members that correspond to an exception,
        as well as to allow extensibility of the event without backwards
        incompatibility, the sole argument received is an instance of
        :class:`.ExceptionContext`.   This object contains data members
        representing detail about the exception.

        Use cases supported by this hook include:

        * read-only, low-level exception handling for logging and
          debugging purposes
        * exception re-writing

        The hook is called while the cursor from the failed operation
        (if any) is still open and accessible.   Special cleanup operations
        can be called on this cursor; SQLAlchemy will attempt to close
        this cursor subsequent to this hook being invoked.  If the connection
        is in "autocommit" mode, the transaction also remains open within
        the scope of this hook; the rollback of the per-statement transaction
        also occurs after the hook is called.

        The user-defined event handler has two options for replacing
        the SQLAlchemy-constructed exception into one that is user
        defined.   It can either raise this new exception directly, in
        which case all further event listeners are bypassed and the
        exception will be raised, after appropriate cleanup as taken
        place::

            @event.listens_for(Engine, "handle_error")
            def handle_exception(context):
                if isinstance(context.original_exception,
                    psycopg2.OperationalError) and \\
                    "failed" in str(context.original_exception):
                    raise MySpecialException("failed operation")

        Alternatively, a "chained" style of event handling can be
        used, by configuring the handler with the ``retval=True``
        modifier and returning the new exception instance from the
        function.  In this case, event handling will continue onto the
        next handler.   The "chained" exception is available using
        :attr:`.ExceptionContext.chained_exception`::

            @event.listens_for(Engine, "handle_error", retval=True)
            def handle_exception(context):
                if context.chained_exception is not None and \\
                    "special" in context.chained_exception.message:
                    return MySpecialException("failed",
                        cause=context.chained_exception)

        Handlers that return ``None`` may remain within this chain; the
        last non-``None`` return value is the one that continues to be
        passed to the next handler.

        When a custom exception is raised or returned, SQLAlchemy raises
        this new exception as-is, it is not wrapped by any SQLAlchemy
        object.  If the exception is not a subclass of
        :class:`sqlalchemy.exc.StatementError`,
        certain features may not be available; currently this includes
        the ORM's feature of adding a detail hint about "autoflush" to
        exceptions raised within the autoflush process.

        :param context: an :class:`.ExceptionContext` object.  See this
         class for details on all available members.

    def engine_connect(self, conn, branch):
        """Intercept the creation of a new :class:`.Connection`.

        This event is called typically as the direct result of calling
        the :meth:`.Engine.connect` method.

        It differs from the :meth:`.PoolEvents.connect` method, which
        refers to the actual connection to a database at the DBAPI level;
        a DBAPI connection may be pooled and reused for many operations.
        In contrast, this event refers only to the production of a higher level
        :class:`.Connection` wrapper around such a DBAPI connection.

        It also differs from the :meth:`.PoolEvents.checkout` event
        in that it is specific to the :class:`.Connection` object, not the
        DBAPI connection that :meth:`.PoolEvents.checkout` deals with, although
        this DBAPI connection is available here via the
        :attr:`.Connection.connection` attribute.  But note there can in fact
        be multiple :meth:`.PoolEvents.checkout` events within the lifespan
        of a single :class:`.Connection` object, if that :class:`.Connection`
        is invalidated and re-established.  There can also be multiple
        :class:`.Connection` objects generated for the same already-checked-out
        DBAPI connection, in the case that a "branch" of a :class:`.Connection`
        is produced.
