Slick left outer join fetching whole joined row as option

Question

My join looks like this:

def byIdWithImage = for {
    userId <- Parameters[Long]
    (user, image) <- Users leftJoin RemoteImages on (_.imageId === _.id)          


        

Answer 1

With the code below you can put it like: yield (user, image.maybe)

case class RemoteImage(id: Long, url: URL)

class RemoteImages extends Table[RemoteImage]("RemoteImage") {
    def id = column[Long]("id", O.PrimaryKey, O.AutoInc)
    def url = column[URL]("url", O.NotNull)
    def * = id.? ~ url <> (RemoteImage.apply _, RemoteImage.unapply _)

    def maybe = id.? ~ url.? <> (applyMaybe,unapplyBlank)

    val unapplyBlank = (c:Option[RemoteImage])=>None        

    val applyMaybe = (t: (Option[Long],Option[URL])) => t match {
        case (Some(id),Some(url)) => Some(RemoteImage(Some(id),url))
        case _ => None
    } 
}
