This lib helps you create materialized views in your SQLite database.
How to use
import (
"github.com/mauricedesaxe/fakeMV"
)
func main() {
// Initialize the database
db, err := sql.Open("sqlite3", "./test.db")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
defer db.Close()
/**
Create tables and whatever else you need to on the database
*/
// Initialize FakeMV
fakeMV := &FakeMV{}
fakeMV.Init(db) // this creates a table "mv_central_store" where we have metadata about all materialized views
// Create a materialized view
err = fakeMV.CreateMV(db, "user_income_events", "SELECT id, amount, category, user_id FROM events WHERE category = 'income'")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
/**
Change the underlying data
*/
// Refresh the materialized view
err = fakeMV.RefreshMV(db, "user_income_events")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
Parameters kinda suck
Whatever the SQL query you pass to the CreateMV function, it will be executed every time you call the RefreshMV function. So you can't quite pass parameters well unless you bake them in the string.
A simple example: you want a materialized view for the past 7 days of a certain data set. SQLite doesn't have interval syntax so you'd normally have to do something like SELECT id, amount, category, user_id FROM events date >= ?. That won't work. You could limit the amount of rows instead, because the number can be baked into the query: SELECT id, amount, category, user_id FROM events ORDER BY date DESC LIMIT 7.
Take it up with whoever makes SQLite syntax to give you interval and materialized views.
