=head1 NAME

DBIx::Class::SQLMaker::LimitDialects - SQL::Abstract::Limit-like functionality for DBIx::Class::SQLMaker

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module replicates a lot of the functionality originally found in
L<SQL::Abstract::Limit>. While simple limits would work as-is, the more
complex dialects that require e.g. subqueries could not be reliably
implemented without taking full advantage of the metadata locked within
L<DBIx::Class::ResultSource> classes. After reimplementation of close to
80% of the L<SQL::Abstract::Limit> functionality it was deemed more
practical to simply make an independent DBIx::Class-specific limit-dialect
provider.

=head1 SQL LIMIT DIALECTS

Note that the actual implementations listed below never use C<*> literally.
Instead proper re-aliasing of selectors and order criteria is done, so that
the limit dialect are safe to use on joined resultsets with clashing column
names.

Currently the provided dialects are:

=head2 LimitOffset

 SELECT ... LIMIT $limit OFFSET $offset

Supported by B<PostgreSQL> and B<SQLite>

=cut
sub _LimitOffset {
    my ( $self, $sql, $rs_attrs, $rows, $offset ) = @_;
    $sql .= $self->_parse_rs_attrs( $rs_attrs ) . " LIMIT ?";
    push @{$self->{limit_bind}}, [ $self->__rows_bindtype => $rows ];
    if ($offset) {
      $sql .= " OFFSET ?";
      push @{$self->{limit_bind}}, [ $self->__offset_bindtype => $offset ];
    }
    return $sql;
}

=head2 LimitXY

 SELECT ... LIMIT $offset, $limit

Supported by B<MySQL> and any L<SQL::Statement> based DBD

=cut
sub _LimitXY {
    my ( $self, $sql, $rs_attrs, $rows, $offset ) = @_;
    $sql .= $self->_parse_rs_attrs( $rs_attrs ) . " LIMIT ";
    if ($offset) {
      $sql .= '?, ';
      push @{$self->{limit_bind}}, [ $self->__offset_bindtype => $offset ];
    }
    $sql .= '?';
    push @{$self->{limit_bind}}, [ $self->__rows_bindtype => $rows ];

    return $sql;
}

=head2 RowNumberOver

 SELECT * FROM (
  SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER( ORDER BY ... ) AS RNO__ROW__INDEX FROM (
   SELECT ...
  )
 ) WHERE RNO__ROW__INDEX BETWEEN ($offset+1) AND ($limit+$offset)


ANSI standard Limit/Offset implementation. Supported by B<DB2> and
B<< MSSQL >= 2005 >>.

=cut
sub _RowNumberOver {
  my ($self, $sql, $rs_attrs, $rows, $offset ) = @_;

  # get selectors, and scan the order_by (if any)
  my $sq_attrs = $self->_subqueried_limit_attrs ( $sql, $rs_attrs );

  # make up an order if none exists
  my $requested_order = (delete $rs_attrs->{order_by}) || $self->_rno_default_order;

  # the order binds (if any) will need to go at the end of the entire inner select
  local $self->{order_bind};
  my $rno_ord = $self->_order_by ($requested_order);
  push @{$self->{select_bind}}, @{$self->{order_bind}};

  # this is the order supplement magic
  my $mid_sel = $sq_attrs->{selection_outer};
  if (my $extra_order_sel = $sq_attrs->{order_supplement}) {
    for my $extra_col (sort
      { $extra_order_sel->{$a} cmp $extra_order_sel->{$b} }
      keys %$extra_order_sel
    ) {
      $sq_attrs->{selection_inner} .= sprintf (', %s AS %s',
        $extra_col,
        $extra_order_sel->{$extra_col},
      );
    }
  }

  # and this is order re-alias magic
  for my $map ($sq_attrs->{order_supplement}, $sq_attrs->{outer_renames}) {
    for my $col (sort { (length $b) <=> (length $a) } keys %{$map||{}} ) {
      my $re_col = quotemeta ($col);
      $rno_ord =~ s/$re_col/$map->{$col}/;
    }
  }

  # whatever is left of the order_by (only where is processed at this point)
  my $group_having = $self->_parse_rs_attrs($rs_attrs);

  my $qalias = $self->_quote ($rs_attrs->{alias});
  my $idx_name = $self->_quote ('rno__row__index');

  push @{$self->{limit_bind}}, [ $self->__offset_bindtype => $offset + 1], [ $self->__total_bindtype => $offset + $rows ];

  return <<EOS;

SELECT $sq_attrs->{selection_outer} FROM (
  SELECT $mid_sel, ROW_NUMBER() OVER( $rno_ord ) AS $idx_name FROM (
    SELECT $sq_attrs->{selection_inner} $sq_attrs->{query_leftover}${group_having}
  ) $qalias
) $qalias WHERE $idx_name >= ? AND $idx_name <= ?

EOS

}

# some databases are happy with OVER (), some need OVER (ORDER BY (SELECT (1)) )
sub _rno_default_order {
  return undef;
}

=head2 SkipFirst

 SELECT SKIP $offset FIRST $limit * FROM ...

Supported by B<Informix>, almost like LimitOffset. According to
L<SQL::Abstract::Limit> C<... SKIP $offset LIMIT $limit ...> is also supported.

=cut
sub _SkipFirst {
  my ($self, $sql, $rs_attrs, $rows, $offset) = @_;

  $sql =~ s/^ \s* SELECT \s+ //ix
    or $self->throw_exception("Unrecognizable SELECT: $sql");

  return sprintf ('SELECT %s%s%s%s',
    $offset
      ? do {
         push @{$self->{pre_select_bind}}, [ $self->__offset_bindtype => $offset];
         'SKIP ? '
      }
      : ''
    ,
    do {
       push @{$self->{pre_select_bind}}, [ $self->__rows_bindtype => $rows ];
       'FIRST ? '
    },
    $sql,
    $self->_parse_rs_attrs ($rs_attrs),
  );
}

=head2 FirstSkip

 SELECT FIRST $limit SKIP $offset * FROM ...

Supported by B<Firebird/Interbase>, reverse of SkipFirst. According to
L<SQL::Abstract::Limit> C<... ROWS $limit TO $offset ...> is also supported.

=cut
sub _FirstSkip {
  my ($self, $sql, $rs_attrs, $rows, $offset) = @_;

  $sql =~ s/^ \s* SELECT \s+ //ix
    or $self->throw_exception("Unrecognizable SELECT: $sql");

  return sprintf ('SELECT %s%s%s%s',
    do {
       push @{$self->{pre_select_bind}}, [ $self->__rows_bindtype => $rows ];
       'FIRST ? '
    },
    $offset
      ? do {
         push @{$self->{pre_select_bind}}, [ $self->__offset_bindtype => $offset];
         'SKIP ? '
      }
      : ''
    ,
    $sql,
    $self->_parse_rs_attrs ($rs_attrs),
  );
}


=head2 RowNum

Depending on the resultset attributes one of:

 SELECT * FROM (
  SELECT *, ROWNUM AS rownum__index FROM (
   SELECT ...
  ) WHERE ROWNUM <= ($limit+$offset)
 ) WHERE rownum__index >= ($offset+1)

or

 SELECT * FROM (
  SELECT *, ROWNUM AS rownum__index FROM (
    SELECT ...
  )
 ) WHERE rownum__index BETWEEN ($offset+1) AND ($limit+$offset)

or

 SELECT * FROM (
    SELECT ...
  ) WHERE ROWNUM <= ($limit+1)

Supported by B<Oracle>.

=cut
sub _RowNum {
  my ( $self, $sql, $rs_attrs, $rows, $offset ) = @_;

  my $sq_attrs = $self->_subqueried_limit_attrs ($sql, $rs_attrs);

  my $qalias = $self->_quote ($rs_attrs->{alias});
  my $idx_name = $self->_quote ('rownum__index');
  my $order_group_having = $self->_parse_rs_attrs($rs_attrs);


  # if no offset (e.g. first page) - we can skip one of the subqueries
  if (! $offset) {
    push @{$self->{limit_bind}}, [ $self->__rows_bindtype => $rows ];

    return <<EOS;
SELECT $sq_attrs->{selection_outer} FROM (
  SELECT $sq_attrs->{selection_inner} $sq_attrs->{query_leftover}${order_group_having}
) $qalias WHERE ROWNUM <= ?
EOS
  }

  #
  # There are two ways to limit in Oracle, one vastly faster than the other
  # on large resultsets: https://decipherinfosys.wordpress.com/2007/08/09/paging-and-countstopkey-optimization/
  # However Oracle is retarded and does not preserve stable ROWNUM() values
  # when called twice in the same scope. Therefore unless the resultset is
  # ordered by a unique set of columns, it is not safe to use the faster
  # method, and the slower BETWEEN query is used instead
  #
  # FIXME - this is quite expensive, and does not perform caching of any sort
  # as soon as some of the DQ work becomes viable consider switching this
  # over

This is the most evil limit "dialect" (more of a hack) for I<really> stupid
databases. It works by ordering the set by some unique column, and calculating
the amount of rows that have a less-er value (thus emulating a L</RowNum>-like
index). Of course this implies the set can only be ordered by a single unique
column.

Also note that this technique can be and often is B<excruciatingly slow>. You
may have much better luck using L<DBIx::Class::ResultSet/software_limit>
instead.

Currently used by B<Sybase ASE>, due to lack of any other option.
