Overview

Package weight turns a normalised engine plan into a verdict: OK, WARN or REFUSE. One cost model serves every engine:

  • the tables of a group form one nested-loop pipeline, so the rows examined by the group are the product of their estimates;
  • the child groups of a group (subqueries, derived tables, compound arms, the inner side of a hash join) add their cost, multiplied by the rows of the group's pipeline when they are correlated;
  • REFUSE when the estimate exceeds explain_rows_refuse, when one full scan reads more than that, or on a cartesian join whose estimate is above explain_rows_warn;
  • WARN when the estimate exceeds explain_rows_warn, on a full scan above it, on a sort or a temporary table above it, on a smaller cartesian join, on a recursive CTE (the engine marks it when its planner can only guess how often the recursion iterates: PostgreSQL, SQLite), and on a full scan of a table whose size the engine does not know (no statistics: the gate has no information on it).

Types

type Level 

type Level int

Level is the outcome of the weight check, ordered by severity. 

const (
	// OK runs after the usual approval.
	OK Level = iota
	// Warn shows the reasons to the human before the approval.
	Warn
	// Refuse is final: the human loosens the limits to get past it.
	Refuse
)

func (Level) MarshalText 

func (l Level) MarshalText() ([]byte, error)

MarshalText makes a Level show as "OK", "WARN" or "REFUSE" in JSON.

func (Level) String 

func (l Level) String() string

func (*Level) UnmarshalText 

func (l *Level) UnmarshalText(b []byte) error

UnmarshalText parses the names written by MarshalText.

type Verdict 

type Verdict struct {
	Level Level `json:"level"`
	// Reasons explains every finding that raised the level, most severe
	// threshold first in the order found. It is empty for a plain OK.
	Reasons []string `json:"reasons"`
	// Summary is one line for the approval prompt: each table with its
	// access and estimated rows, the sorts and temporary tables, and the
	// estimate, e.g. "big full ~50 000 · sort · est. 50 000 rows examined".
	Summary string `json:"summary"`
	// EstimatedRows is the estimated number of rows examined, saturated at
	// math.MaxInt64. Tables of unknown size count as one row.
	EstimatedRows int64 `json:"estimated_rows"`
}

Verdict is the result of Assess.

func Assess 

func Assess(p engine.Plan, l config.Limits, production bool) Verdict

Assess applies the cost model to p. Thresholds of l that are not set (zero or negative) take the defaults for the profile kind, so that a missing limit never disables the check. production selects the stricter defaults.
