Description (last modified by )
Given the following model:
class Price(models.Model): price = models.IntegerField(null=False) price_previous = models.IntegerField(null=False) on_sale = models.BooleanField(null=False)
The following query used to work in 2.2. but emits a ProgrammingError
on 3.0+ against a Postgres database:
Price.objects.filter( models.Q( on_sale=models.ExpressionWrapper( models.Q(price__lt=models.F('price_previous')), output_field=models.BooleanField(), ) ) )
Traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "<console>", line 5, in <module> File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 256, in __repr__ data = list(self[:REPR_OUTPUT_SIZE + 1]) File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 280, in __iter__ self._fetch_all() File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 1324, in _fetch_all self._result_cache = list(self._iterable_class(self)) File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 51, in __iter__ results = compiler.execute_sql(chunked_fetch=self.chunked_fetch, chunk_size=self.chunk_size) File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/models/sql/compiler.py", line 1169, in execute_sql cursor.execute(sql, params) File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py", line 98, in execute return super().execute(sql, params) File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py", line 66, in execute return self._execute_with_wrappers(sql, params, many=False, executor=self._execute) File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py", line 75, in _execute_with_wrappers return executor(sql, params, many, context) File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py", line 84, in _execute return self.cursor.execute(sql, params) File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/utils.py", line 90, in __exit__ raise dj_exc_value.with_traceback(traceback) from exc_value File ".../lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py", line 84, in _execute return self.cursor.execute(sql, params) django.db.utils.ProgrammingError: syntax error at or near "<" LINE 1: ..."prices_price"."on_sale" = "prices_price"."price" < "prices_...
The error comes from the way the query ended up compiled, in 3.2 we get:
SELECT "prices_price"."id", "prices_price"."price", "prices_price"."price_previous", "prices_price"."on_sale" FROM "prices_price" WHERE "prices_price"."on_sale" = "prices_price"."price" < "prices_price"."price_previous"
The right hand side of the clause is not wrapped in parentheses. While on 2.2 we get:
SELECT "prices_price"."id", "prices_price"."price", "prices_price"."price_previous", "prices_price"."on_sale" FROM "prices_price" WHERE "prices_price"."on_sale" = ("prices_price"."price" < ("prices_price"."price_previous"))
The right hand side is correctly wrapped (even if some parts are over wrapped).
Sorry if the title is not super accurate, I wasn't sure how to exactly to describe the exact kind of models.Q invocation at play here.
Versions:
- Python 3.7
- Tested agains postgres 9.6, 11 and 13
- Tested against 3.0.14, 3.1.8 and 3.2. It works on 2.2.20
For reference. the following query (valid in 3.0+) is equivalent and generates the same broken SQL:
Price.objects.filter( models.Q( on_sale=models.Q(price__lt=models.F('price_previous')) ) )
I've logged more details and a complete reproduction at https://github.com/lirsacc/django-check-constraint-pg-regression (in the context of a CheckConstraint
and migrations which is where we first saw this).
