inArray not working as expected

This works but looks like a (sql injection) const tagsArray = selectedTags.map((tag) => '${tag}').join(', '); where.push(sql${tagData.tags} @> ARRAY[${sql.raw(tagsArray)}]::text[]); Why doesn't this just work (tm)? where.push(inArray(tagData.tags, selectedTags));

Hum 🧐 that’s not expected https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/operators#inarray do you have a particular error?
Drizzle ORM - Filters

The tagData is a CTE which gives a type error for inArray that says "no overload matches the call". And then the query errors out with
PostgresError: malformed array literal: "tag2"
PostgresError: malformed array literal: "tag2"
with selectedTags being [ "tag2" ]

Maybe I missed something: https://drizzle.run/n0mpj7jpps2yvbwwvua81mms Do not hesitate to share a small repro, just to be sure

I'll try to reproduce it in playground. That's probably the easiest.

Here we go! That's most stripped down version that still shows it. https://drizzle.run/g9pjwezeysxkxsfh6d83ayye

Any idea, @Raphaël M (@rphlmr) ⚡ ?

It was because of the cast to ARRAY I shared a safe toArray

Thanks for the help. I would have never figured that out by myself. I wished the where.push(inArray(tagData.tags, selectedTags)); would just work and TBH I don't fully understand why is doesn't yet. tagData.tags should be an array and selectedTags also is an array why is there a casting problem?

inArray works with a list (from a query or a js array). It translates to a “in” operator. Sql array are different and arrayContains translate to a “@ > {…}” 😅 I have a lot of these helpers in my projects, and I would love to have some of them in Drizzle. I will try to take a deeper look into it. inArray works fine everywhere I need it.

But shouldn't this also work with an IN operator? I don't quite get this
[P in PGCastTypes]: P extends `${infer _T}[]` ? P : never;
[P in PGCastTypes]: P extends `${infer _T}[]` ? P : never;
Why the _T?

Just an eslint convention for unused declaration

with "tag_data" as (select "postId", "tag" from "tags") select "post"."id", "post"."content", array_agg(distinct "tag_data"."tag") filter (where "tag_data"."tag" is not null) as "tags" from "post" inner join "tag_data" on "tag_data"."postId" = "post"."id" where "tag_data"."tag" in ('foo', 'bar') group by "post"."id"

no no, not the _ .. but the T itself if it isn't even used. ...and I also get an type warning despite
rules: {
'no-unused-vars': 'off',
'@typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars': [
'error',
{
argsIgnorePattern: '^_',
varsIgnorePattern: '^_',
caughtErrorsIgnorePattern: '^_'
}
]
}
rules: {
'no-unused-vars': 'off',
'@typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars': [
'error',
{
argsIgnorePattern: '^_',
varsIgnorePattern: '^_',
caughtErrorsIgnorePattern: '^_'
}
]
}
but that sounds more like an eslint config issue. man, your utility functions are golden. thanks for those. but I still don't quite understand the why that approach works and my previous approach doesn't

"@typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars": [
"warn",
{
vars: "all",
varsIgnorePattern: "^_",
args: "all",
argsIgnorePattern: "^_",
destructuredArrayIgnorePattern: "^_",
ignoreRestSiblings: false,

It could be [P in PGCastTypes]: P extends ${string}[] ? P : never;.Maybe it was not possible with the TS version when I first did it (2 years ago).

Because you aggregated the data in the CTE and not in the final result.

in works with a scalar column but not an array

interesting ... sounds like I need to read up on that difference ... first time I am trying it like that also curious to see if there is a big difference in the execution plan

I always try to aggregate in the last query now that we have views, it can be simpler to pre-build complex ... views 😄
tcurdt
tcurdtOP3mo ago
that does feel counter intuitive to me though ... it seems aggregating as early as possible should scale better ... but that's really just my unsubstantiated gut feeling 🙃 drizzle supports views?

yes since monday!
