Record
The record is a central abstraction in Circumflex ORM. Every object persisted into database should extend the Record class. It provides data definition methods necessary to create a domain model for your application as well as methods for saving and updating your record to backend database.
Circumflex ORM is all about type safety and domain-specific languages (at a first glance the record definition may seem a little verbose). Here's the sample definition of fictional record Country :
class Country extends Record[String, Country] {
val code = "code".VARCHAR(2)
val name = "name".TEXT
def PRIMARY_KEY = code
val relation = Country
}
|
abstract class Record[PK, R <: Record[PK, R]] extends Equals { this: R =>
implicit def fieldPair2cmp[T1, T2](pair: (Field[T1, R], Field[T2, R])): FieldComposition2[T1, T2, R] =
composition(pair._1, pair._2)
implicit def str2ddlHelper(str: String): DefinitionHelper[R] =
new DefinitionHelper(str, this)

Record State
Records in relational theory are distinguished from each other by the value of their primary key. You should specify what field hold the primary key of your record by implementing the PRIMARY_KEY method.
The transient_? method indicates, whether the record was not persisted into a database yet or it was. The default logic is simple: if the primary key contains null then the record is transient (i.e. not persisted), otherwise the record is considered persistent.
The relation method points to the relation from which a record came or to which it should go. In general this method should point to the companion object. However, if you do not convey to Circumflex ORM conventions, you may specify another object which will act a relation for this type of records.

def PRIMARY_KEY: ValueHolder[PK, R]
def transient_?(): Boolean = PRIMARY_KEY.null_?
def relation: Relation[PK, R]
def uuid = getClass.getName

Persistence & Validation
The refresh method is used to synchronize an already persisted record with its state in backend. It evicts the record from cache and performs SQL SELECT using primary key-based predicate.
The INSERT_! , UPDATE_! and DELETE_! methods are used to insert, update or delete a single record. The insert and update do the same as their equivalents except that validation is performed before actual execution. The refresh method performs select with primary key criteria and updates the fields with retrieved values.
When inserting new record into database the primary key should be generated. It is done either by polling database, by supplying NULL in primary key and then querying last generated identifier or manually by application. The default implementation relies on application-assigned identifiers; to use different strategy mix in one of the Generator traits or simply override the persist method.

Field Compositions
Fields can be grouped into field compositions using the composition method. Compositions can be used as primary keys and participate in simple queries. Circumflex ORM currently supports only composition with arity of 2. A pair of fields is implicitly converted into FieldComposition2 when necessary.
|
def composition[T1, T2](f1: Field[T1, R], f2: Field[T2, R]) =
new FieldComposition2[T1, T2, R](f1, f2, this)
|
Inverse Associations
One-to-one and one-to-many relationships can be implemented using inverseOne or inverseMany methods.
|
protected def inverseOne[C <: Record[_, C]](association: Association[PK, C, R]) =
new InverseOne[PK, C, R](this, association)
protected def inverseMany[C <: Record[_, C]](association: Association[PK, C, R]) =
new InverseMany[PK, C, R](this, association)
|
Equality & Others
Two record are considered equal if they share the same type and have same primary keys. Transient records are never equal to each other.
The hashCode method delegates to record's primary key.
The canEqual method indicates that two records share the same type.
Finally, the default implementation of toString returns fully-qualified class name of the record followed by “@" and it's primary key value (or TRANSIENT word if primary key is null ).
|
override def equals(that: Any) = that match {
case that: Record[_, _] =>
!(this.PRIMARY_KEY.null_? || that.PRIMARY_KEY.null_?) &&
this.PRIMARY_KEY.value == that.PRIMARY_KEY.value &&
this.getClass == that.getClass
case _ => false
}
override def hashCode = PRIMARY_KEY.hashCode
override def canEqual(that: Any): Boolean = that match {
case that: Relation[_, _] =>
this.getClass == that.recordClass
case that: Record[_, _] =>
this.getClass == that.getClass
case _ => false
}
override def toString = getClass.getSimpleName + "@" +
PRIMARY_KEY.map(_.toString).getOrElse("TRANSIENT")
}

Identity Generation Strategies
Different identity generation strategies can be used by mixing in one of the Generator traits. Following identity generators are supported out-of-box:
- application-assigned identifiers (the default one, no need to mixin traits): application is responsible for generating and assigning identifiers before attempting to persist a record;
IdentityGenerator is a database-specific strategy: application should persist a record with NULL primary key value, database is responsible for generating an identifier value and for exposing last generated identifier;
SequenceGenerator assumes that database supports sequences: the database is polled for next sequence value which is then used as an identifier for persisting.
