PB-1403: Add tests for pgtriggers and clean up conditions. - #647
Merged
Conversation
One of the triggers generated by `child_triggers` is meant to update the `updated` j field of the parent whenever the child changes. This is used for the following relationships: item/Asset, collection/CollectionAsset, collection/Item. As part of PB-1403, I plan to modify these triggers. This change adds tests to exercise these triggers. No change in behaviour is expected at this point.
This turns four very redundant methods into one.
Set `db_create=True` everywhere.
The `generates_asset_upload_triggers` function generates a trigger that updates the etag of an AssetUpload whenever any field of that AssetUpload is updated. Before simplifying that trigger, I am adding a test to ensure it keeps working as expected.
The `child_triggers` function is used to generate PostgreSQL triggers to update some fields automatically. Currently it is triggered when any field changes. For PB-1403 we want these triggers to be conditional on specific fields. This change replaces the raw-SQL-based `Condition('OLD.* IS DISTINCT FROM NEW.*')` with `AnyChange(*fields)`. This is equivalent as long as `fields` is empty. We also update `child_triggers` to take a new optional `fields` argument (defaulting to empty). This allows callers to define the conditions that apply for the trigger. A later change will make use of this new parametre. Something similar was done for `auto_variables_triggers` in 02f63bc
The `pgtrigger.Condition('OLD.file_size IS DISTINCT FROM NEW.file_size')`
condition is equivalent to `pgtrigger.AnyChange('file_size')`, which is easier
to inspect and reason about. This change replaces the former with the latter.
The `pgtrigger.Condition('''OLD.proj_epsg IS DISTINCT FROM NEW.proj_epsg''')`
condition is equivalent to `pgtrigger.AnyChange('proj_epsg')`, which is easier
to inspect and reason about. This change replaces the former with the latter.
The `pgtrigger.Condition('OLD.* IS DISTINCT FROM NEW.*')` condition is
equivalent to `pgtrigger.AnyChange()`, which is easier to inspect and reason
about. This change replaces the former with the latter.

As part of PB-1403 we need to modify several triggers which don't currently have tests. This change adds tests and modifies some of these triggers slightly to replace some raw SQL statements with calls to
pgtrigger.AnyChange. No actual change in behaviour is expected at this stage.
