🚀 Quick Start

1. Define Models

from dotorm import DotModel, Integer, Char, Boolean, Many2one, One2many
from dotorm.components import POSTGRES

class Role(DotModel):
    __table__ = "roles"
    _dialect = POSTGRES

    id: int = Integer(primary_key=True)
    name: str = Char(max_length=100, required=True)
    description: str = Char(max_length=255)

class User(DotModel):
    __table__ = "users"
    _dialect = POSTGRES

    id: int = Integer(primary_key=True)
    name: str = Char(max_length=100, required=True)
    email: str = Char(max_length=255, unique=True)
    active: bool = Boolean(default=True)
    role_id: Role = Many2one(lambda: Role)

class Role(DotModel):
    # ... fields above ...
    users: list[User] = One2many(lambda: User, "role_id")

2. Connect to Database

from dotorm.databases.postgres import ContainerPostgres
from dotorm.databases.abstract import PostgresPoolSettings, ContainerSettings

# Connection settings
pool_settings = PostgresPoolSettings(
    host="localhost",
    port=5432,
    user="postgres",
    password="password",
    database="myapp"
)

container_settings = ContainerSettings(
    driver="asyncpg",
    reconnect_timeout=10
)

# Create connection pool
container = ContainerPostgres(pool_settings, container_settings)
pool = await container.create_pool()

# Bind pool to models
User._pool = pool
User._no_transaction = container.get_no_transaction_session()
Role._pool = pool
Role._no_transaction = container.get_no_transaction_session()

3. Create Tables

# Automatic table creation with FK
await container.create_and_update_tables([Role, User])

📖 Usage Examples

CRUD Operations

# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
# CREATE - Creating records
# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

# Single create
user = User(name="John", email="[e-mail]", role_id=1)
user_id = await User.create(user)
print(f"Created user with ID: {user_id}")

# Bulk create
users = [
    User(name="Alice", email="[e-mail]"),
    User(name="Bob", email="[e-mail]"),
    User(name="Charlie", email="[e-mail]"),
]
created_ids = await User.create_bulk(users)
print(f"Created {len(created_ids)} users")

# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
# READ - Reading records
# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

# Get by ID
user = await User.get(1)
print(f"User: {user.name}")

# Get with field selection
user = await User.get(1, fields=["id", "name", "email"])

# Search with filtering
active_users = await User.search(
    fields=["id", "name", "email"],
    filter=[("active", "=", True)],
    order="ASC",
    sort="name",
    limit=10
)

# Complex filters
users = await User.search(
    fields=["id", "name"],
    filter=[
        ("active", "=", True),
        "and",
        [
            ("name", "ilike", "john"),
            "or",
            ("email", "like", "@gmail.com")
        ]
    ]
)

# Pagination
page_1 = await User.search(fields=["id", "name"], start=0, end=20)
page_2 = await User.search(fields=["id", "name"], start=20, end=40)

# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
# UPDATE - Updating records
# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

# Update single record
user = await User.get(1)
user.name = "New Name"
await user.update()

# Update with payload
user = await User.get(1)
payload = User(name="Updated Name", active=False)
await user.update(payload, fields=["name", "active"])

# Bulk update
await User.update_bulk(
    ids=[1, 2, 3],
    payload=User(active=False)
)

# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
# DELETE - Deleting records
# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

# Delete single record
user = await User.get(1)
await user.delete()

# Bulk delete
await User.delete_bulk([4, 5, 6])

Working with Relations

# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
# Many2One - Many to One
# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

# Get user with role
user = await User.get_with_relations(
    id=1,
    fields=["id", "name", "role_id"]
)
print(f"User: {user.name}, Role: {user.role_id.name}")

# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
# One2Many - One to Many
# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

# Get role with all users
role = await Role.get_with_relations(
    id=1,
    fields=["id", "name", "users"],
    fields_info={"users": ["id", "name", "email"]}
)
print(f"Role: {role.name}")
for user in role.users["data"]:
    print(f"  - {user.name}")

# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
# Many2Many - Many to Many
# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

class Tag(DotModel):
    __table__ = "tags"
    _dialect = POSTGRES

    id: int = Integer(primary_key=True)
    name: str = Char(max_length=50)

class Article(DotModel):
    __table__ = "articles"
    _dialect = POSTGRES

    id: int = Integer(primary_key=True)
    title: str = Char(max_length=200)
    tags: list[Tag] = Many2many(
        relation_table=lambda: Tag,
        many2many_table="article_tags",
        column1="tag_id",
        column2="article_id"
    )

# Get article with tags
article = await Article.get_with_relations(
    id=1,
    fields=["id", "title", "tags"]
)

# Link tags to article
await Article.link_many2many(
    field=Article.tags,
    values=[(article.id, 1), (article.id, 2), (article.id, 3)]
)

# Unlink tags
await Article.unlink_many2many(
    field=Article.tags,
    ids=[1, 2]
)

Transactions

from dotorm.databases.postgres import ContainerTransaction

async with ContainerTransaction(pool) as session:
    # All operations in single transaction
    role_id = await Role.create(
        Role(name="Admin"),
        session=session
    )
    
    user_id = await User.create(
        User(name="Admin User", role_id=role_id),
        session=session
    )
    
    # Auto commit on exit
    # Auto rollback on exception

Filters

# ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
# Supported Operators

# Comparison
filter=[("age", "=", 25)]
filter=[("age", "!=", 25)]
filter=[("age", ">", 18)]
filter=[("age", ">=", 18)]
filter=[("age", "<", 65)]
filter=[("age", "<=", 65)]

# String search

    ("active", "=", True),
    ("verified", "=", True)
]

# OR
filter=[
    ("role", "=", "admin"),
    "or",
    ("role", "=", "moderator")
]

# Nested conditions
filter=[
    ("active", "=", True),
    "and",
    [
        ("role", "=", "admin"),
        "or",

    ]

⚡ Solving the N+1 Problem

The N+1 Problem

# ❌ BAD: N+1 queries
users = await User.search(fields=["id", "name", "role_id"], limit=100)
for user in users:
    # Each call = new DB query!
    role = await Role.get(user.role_id)
    print(f"{user.name} - {role.name}")
# Total: 1 + 100 = 101 queries!

DotORM Solution

1. Automatic Relation Loading in search()

# ✅ GOOD: 2 queries instead of 101
users = await User.search(
    fields=["id", "name", "role_id"],  # role_id is Many2one
    limit=100
)
# DotORM automatically:
# 1. Loads all users (1 query)
# 2. Collects unique role_ids
# 3. Loads all roles in one query (1 query)
# 4. Maps roles to users in memory

for user in users:
    print(f"{user.name} - {user.role_id.name}")  # No additional queries!

2. Batch Loading for Many2Many

# ✅ GOOD: Optimized M2M loading
articles = await Article.search(
    fields=["id", "title", "tags"],
    limit=50
)
# DotORM executes:
# 1. SELECT * FROM articles LIMIT 50
# 2. SELECT tags.*, article_tags.article_id as m2m_id
#    FROM tags
#    JOIN article_tags ON tags.id = article_tags.tag_id
#    WHERE article_tags.article_id IN (1, 2, 3, ..., 50)
# Total: 2 queries!

3. Batch Loading for One2Many

# ✅ GOOD: Optimized O2M loading
roles = await Role.search(
    fields=["id", "name", "users"],
    limit=10
)
# DotORM executes:
# 1. SELECT * FROM roles LIMIT 10
# 2. SELECT * FROM users WHERE role_id IN (1, 2, 3, ..., 10)
# Total: 2 queries!
