Slick: query multiple tables/databases with getting column names

问题

I have methods in my Play app that query database tables with over hundred columns. I can't define case class for each such query, because it would be just ridiculously big and would have to be changed with each alter of the table on the database.

I'm using this approach, where result of the query looks like this:

Map(columnName1 -> columnVal1, columnName2 -> columnVal2, ...)

Example of the code:

implicit val getListStringResult = GetResult[List[Any]] (
    r => (1 to r.numColumns).map(_ => r.nextObject).toList
)

def getSomething(): Map[String, Any] = DB.withSession {
    val columns = MTable.getTables(None, None, None, None).list.filter(_.name.name == "myTable").head.getColumns.list.map(_.column) 
    val result = sql"""SELECT * FROM myTable LIMIT 1""".as[List[Any]].firstOption.map(columns zip _ toMap).get
}

This is not a problem when query only runs on a single database and single table. I need to be able to use multiple tables and databases in my query like this:

def getSomething(): Map[String, Any] = DB.withSession {

    //The line below is no longer valid because of multiple tables/databases
    val columns = MTable.getTables(None, None, None, None).list.filter(_.name.name == "table1").head.getColumns.list.map(_.column) 
    val result = sql"""
        SELECT      * 
        FROM        db1.table1
        LEFT JOIN   db2.table2 ON db2.table2.col1 = db1.table1.col1
        LIMIT       1
    """.as[List[Any]].firstOption.map(columns zip _ toMap).get

}

The same approach can no longer be used to retrieve column names. This problem doesn't exist when using something like PHP PDO or Java JDBCTemplate - these retrieve column names without any extra effort needed.

My question is: how do I achieve this with Slick?

回答1:

import scala.slick.jdbc.{GetResult,PositionedResult}
object ResultMap extends GetResult[Map[String,Any]] {
  def apply(pr: PositionedResult) = {
    val rs = pr.rs // <- jdbc result set
    val md = rs.getMetaData();
    val res = (1 to pr.numColumns).map{ i=> md.getColumnName(i) -> rs.getObject(i) }.toMap
    pr.nextRow // <- use Slick's advance method to avoid endless loop
    res
  }
}
val result = sql"select * from ...".as(ResultMap).firstOption

回答2:

Another variant that produces map with not null columns (keys in lowercase):

private implicit val getMap = GetResult[Map[String, Any]](r => {
    val metadata = r.rs.getMetaData
    (1 to r.numColumns).flatMap(i => {
        val columnName = metadata.getColumnName(i).toLowerCase
        val columnValue = r.nextObjectOption
        columnValue.map(columnName -> _)
    }).toMap
})
