# sqlcommenter

Python modules for popular projects that add meta info to your SQL queries as comments.

 * [Django](#django)
 * [SQLAlchemy](#sqlalchemy)
 * [Psycopg2](#psycopg2)

## Local Install

```shell
pip3 install --user opentelemetry-sqlcommenter
```

## Usage

### Django

Add the provided Django middleware to your Django project's settings. All queries executed within the standard request→response cycle will have the SQL comment prepended to them.

```python
MIDDLEWARE = [
  'opentelemetry.sqlcommenter.django.middleware.SqlCommenter',
  ...
]
```

which when viewed say on Postgresql logs, produces
```shell
2019-05-28 11:54:50.780 PDT [64128] LOG:  statement: INSERT INTO "polls_question"
("question_text", "pub_date") VALUES
('Wassup?', '2019-05-28T18:54:50.767481+00:00'::timestamptz) RETURNING
"polls_question"."id" /*controller='index',framework='django%3A2.2.1',route='%5Epolls/%24'*/
```
If you want the OpenCensus attributes included, you must set the
``SQLCOMMENTER_WITH_OPENCENSUS`` setting to ``True``.

If you want the OpenTelemetry attributes included, you must set the
``SQLCOMMENTER_WITH_OPENTELEMETRY`` setting to ``True``.

You cannot use OpenTelemetry and OpenCensus together, as they use the same attributes.

### SQLAlchemy

Attach the provided event listener to the `before_cursor_execute` event of the database engine, with `retval=True`. All queries executed with that engine will have the SQL comment prepended to them.

```python
import sqlalchemy
from opentelemetry.sqlcommenter.sqlalchemy.executor import BeforeExecuteFactory

engine = sqlalchemy.create_engine(...)
listener = BeforeExecuteFactory(
    with_db_driver=True,
    with_db_framework=True,
    # you may use one of opencensus or opentelemetry
    with_opencensus=True,
    with_opentelemetry=True,
)
sqlalchemy.event.listen(engine, 'before_cursor_execute', listener, retval=True)
engine.execute(...) # comment will be added before execution
```

which will produce a backend log such as when viewed on Postgresql
```shell
2019-05-28 11:52:06.527 PDT [64087] LOG:  statement: SELECT * FROM polls_question
/*db_driver='psycopg2',framework='sqlalchemy%3A1.3.4',
traceparent='00-5bd66ef5095369c7b0d1f8f4bd33716a-c532cb4098ac3dd2-01',
tracestate='congo%%3Dt61rcWkgMzE%%2Crojo%%3D00f067aa0ba902b7'*/
```

### Psycopg2

Use the provided cursor factory to generate database cursors. All queries executed with such cursors will have the SQL comment prepended to them.

```python
import psycopg2
from opentelemetry.sqlcommenter.psycopg2.extension import CommenterCursorFactory

cursor_factory = CommenterCursorFactory(
    with_db_driver=True,
    with_dbapi_level=True,
    with_dbapi_threadsafety=True,
    with_driver_paramstyle=True,
    with_libpq_version=True,
    # you may use one of opencensus or opentelemetry
    with_opencensus=True,
    with_opentelemetry=True,
)
conn = psycopg2.connect(..., cursor_factory=cursor_factory)
cursor = conn.cursor()
cursor.execute(...) # comment will be added before execution
```

which will produce a backend log such as when viewed on Postgresql
```shell
2019-05-28 02:33:25.287 PDT [57302] LOG:  statement: SELECT * FROM
polls_question /*db_driver='psycopg2%%3A2.8.2%%20%%28dt%%20dec%%20pq3%%20ext%%20lo64%%29',

libpq_version=100001,traceparent='00-5bd66ef5095369c7b0d1f8f4bd33716a-c532cb4098ac3dd2-01',
tracestate='congo%%3Dt61rcWkgMzE%%2Crojo%%3D00f067aa0ba902b7'*/
```

## Options

With Django, each option translates to a Django setting by uppercasing it and prepending `SQLCOMMENTER_`. For example, `with_framework` is controlled by the django setting `SQLCOMMENTER_WITH_FRAMEWORK`.

#### [1] `opencensus`

For `opencensus` to work correctly, note that [OpenCensus for
Python](https://github.com/census-instrumentation/opencensus-python) must be
installed in the python environment.

#### [2] `opentelemetry`

For `opentelemetry` to work correctly, note that [OpenTelemetry for
Python](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python) must be
installed in the python environment.

#### [3] `traceparent/tracestate`
Because the W3C TraceContext's `traceparent` and `tracestate` are quite ephemeral per request, including these attributes can have a negative impact on query caching.
