Querytyper

Querytyper is a Python package to query MongoDB using a fully typed syntax. It leverages the Pydantic library for defining and validating data models, providing a seamless and type-safe experience.

Features

• Construct MongoDB queries using Python's native syntax with type hints.
• Leverage Pydantic models to define your MongoDB document structure and query filters efficiently.
• Build complex queries using logical operators and comparisons in a natural and expressive way.

Using

To add and install this package as a dependency of your project, run poetry add querytyper.

A simple example:

from pydantic import BaseModel, EmailStr
from querytyper import MongoFilterMeta, MongoQuery

class User(BaseModel):
    """User database model."""
    id: int
    name: str
    age: int
    email: EmailStr

class UserFilter(User, metaclass=MongoFilterMeta):
    """User query filter."""

query = MongoQuery(
        (UserFilter.name == "John")
        & (UserFilter.age >= 10)
        & (
            UserFilter.email
            in [
                "[email protected]",
                "[email protected]",
            ]
        )
    )
print(query)

{
    "name": "John",
    "age": {"$gte": 10},
    "email": [
        "[email protected]",
        "[email protected]",
    ],
}

Prerequisites

1. Set up Git to use SSH

   • Enable Use Docker Compose V2 in Docker Desktop's preferences window.
   • Linux only:
     • Export your user's user id and group id so that files created in the Dev Container are owned by your user:

       cat << EOF >> ~/.bashrc
       export UID=$(id --user)
       export GID=$(id --group)
       EOF

3. Install VS Code or PyCharm

1. Install VS Code and VS Code's Dev Containers extension. Alternatively, install PyCharm.
2. Optional: install a Nerd Font such as FiraCode Nerd Font and configure VS Code or configure PyCharm to use it.
