= ActiveRecord::Turntable {<img src="https://secure.travis-ci.org/drecom/activerecord-turntable.png" />}[http://travis-ci.org/drecom/activerecord-turntable]

ActiveRecord::Turntable is a database sharding extension for ActiveRecord.

== Dependencies
activerecord(>=3.0.0)

== Supported Database
Currently supports mysql only.

== Installation

Add 'activerecord-turntable' to Gemfile:

    gem 'activerecord-turntable', '1.0.1'

Run a bundle install:

    bundle install

Run install generator:

    bundle exec rails g active_record:turntable:install

generator creates Rails.root/config/turntable.yml

== ActiveRecord::Turntable terms

* Shard
* Cluster - a cluster of shards.
* Master - default ActiveRecord::Base's connection
* Sequencer - a module that creates global sequence number

== Example

=== Example Databases Structure
one main database(default ActiveRecord::Base connection) and
three user databases sharded by user_id.

                         +-------+
                         |  App  |
                         +-------+
                             |
       +---------+-----------+---------+---------+
       |         |           |         |         |
  +--------+ +---------+ +-------+ +-------+ +-------+
  | Master | |Sequencer| |UserDB1| |UserDB2| |UserDB3|
  +--------+ +---------+ +-------+ +-------+ +-------+

=== Example Configuration

Edit turntable.yml and database.yml. See below example config.

example turntable.yml:

    development:
      clusters:
        user_cluster: # <-- cluster name
          algorithm: range # <-- only range or range_bsearch sharding is supported currently.
          seq:
            connection: user_seq_1
          shards:
            - connection: user_shard_1 # <-- shard name
              less_than: 100           # <-- shard range(like mysql partitioning)
            - connection: user_shard_2
              less_than: 200
            - connection: user_shard_3
              less_than: 2000000000

database.yml:
    connection_spec: &spec
      adapter: mysql2
      encoding: utf8
      reconnect: false
      pool: 5
      username: root
      password: root
      socket: /tmp/mysql.sock

    development:
      <<: *spec
      database: sample_app_development
      seq: # <-- sequence definition
        user_seq_1:
          <<: *spec
          database: sample_app_user_seq_development
      shards: # <-- shards definition
        user_shard_1:
          <<: *spec
          database: sample_app_user1_development
        user_shard_2:
          <<: *spec
          database: sample_app_user2_development
        user_shard_3:
          <<: *spec
          database: sample_app_user3_development


=== Migration Example

Generate a model:

  bundle exec rails g model user name:string

Edit migration file:

  class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
    clusters :user_cluster # <-- the cluster that executes migration

    def change
      create_table :users do |t|
        t.string :name
        t.timestamps
      end
      create_sequence_for(:users)
    end
  end

then please execute rake tasks:

  bundle exec rake db:create
  bundle exec rake db:migrate

Those rake tasks would be executed to shards too.

=== Model Example
add turntable [shard_key_name] to the model class:

  class User < ActiveRecord::Base
    turntable :user_cluster, :id
    sequencer
    has_one :status
  end

  class Status < ActiveRecord::Base
    turntable :user_cluster, :user_id
    sequencer
    belongs_to :user
  end

== Usage

=== Create
    > User.create(name: "hoge")
      (0.0ms) [Shard: user_seq_1] BEGIN
      (0.3ms) [Shard: user_seq_1] UPDATE `users_id_seq` SET id=LAST_INSERT_ID(id+1)
      (0.8ms) [Shard: user_seq_1] COMMIT
      (0.1ms) [Shard: user_seq_1] SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID()
      (0.1ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] BEGIN
    [ActiveRecord::Turntable] Sending method: insert, sql: #<Arel::InsertManager:0x007f8503685b48>, shards: ["user_shard_1"]
      SQL (0.8ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] INSERT INTO `users` (`created_at`, `id`, `name`, `updated_at`) VALUES ('2012-04-10 03:59:42', 2, 'hoge', '2012-04-10 03:59:42')
      (0.4ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] COMMIT
    => #<User id: 2, name: "hoge", created_at: "2012-04-10 03:59:42", updated_at: "2012-04-10 03:59:42">

=== Retrieve
    > user = User.find(2)
    [ActiveRecord::Turntable] Sending method: select_all, sql: #<Arel::SelectManager:0x007f850466e668>, shards: ["user_shard_1"]
      User Load (0.3ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] SELECT `users`.* FROM `users` WHERE `users`.`id` = 2 LIMIT 1
    => #<User id: 2, name: "hoge", created_at: "2012-04-10 03:59:42", updated_at: "2012-04-10 03:59:42">

=== Update
    > user.update_attributes(name: "hogefoo")
      (0.1ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] BEGIN
    [ActiveRecord::Turntable] Sending method: update, sql: UPDATE `users` SET `name` = 'hogefoo', `updated_at` = '2012-04-10 04:07:52' WHERE `users`.`id` = 2, shards: ["user_shard_1"]
      (0.3ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] UPDATE `users` SET `name` = 'hogefoo', `updated_at` = '2012-04-10 04:07:52' WHERE `users`.`id` = 2
      (0.8ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] COMMIT
    => true

=== Delete
    > user.destroy
      (0.2ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] BEGIN
    [ActiveRecord::Turntable] Sending method: delete, sql: #<Arel::DeleteManager:0x007f8503677ea8>, shards: ["user_shard_1"]
      SQL (0.3ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] DELETE FROM `users` WHERE `users`.`id` = 2
      (1.7ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] COMMIT
    => #<User id: 2, name: "hogefoo", created_at: "2012-04-10 03:59:42", updated_at: "2012-04-10 04:07:52">

=== Count

    > User.count
    [ActiveRecord::Turntable] Sending method: select_value, sql: #<Arel::SelectManager:0x007f9e82ccebb0>, shards: ["user_shard_1", "user_shard_2", "user_shard_3"]
       (0.8ms) [Shard: user_shard_1] SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `users`
       (0.3ms) [Shard: user_shard_2] SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `users`
       (0.2ms) [Shard: user_shard_3] SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `users`
    => 1

=== Sequencer
Sequencer provides generating global IDs.

Add below to the migration:

      create_sequence_for(:users) # <-- this line creates sequence table

This will creates sequence table.

Next, add sequencer to the model:

  class User < ActiveRecord::Base
    turntable :id
    sequencer # <-- this line enables sequencer module
    has_one :status
  end


=== Transaction
    > user = User.find(2)
    > user3 = User.create(name: "hoge3")
    > User.shards_transaction([user, user3]) do
    >   user.name  = "hogehoge"
    >   user3.name = "hogehoge3"
    >   user.save!
    >   user3.save!
    > end

=== Send query to a specific shard.
use with_shard method:

    AR::Base.connection.with_shard(shard1) do
      # something queries to shard1
    end

To access shard objects, use below:
* AR::Base.connection.shards # \\{shard_name => shard_obj,....}
* AR::Base#turntable_shard
* AR::Base.connection.select_shard(shard_key_value) #=> shard

=== Send query to all shards
use with_all method:

  User.connection.with_all do
    User.order("created_at DESC").limit(3).all
  end


=== Migration
If you specify cluster or shard, migration will be executed to the cluster(or shard) and master database.

to specify cluster:

    class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
      clusters :user_cluster
      ....
    end

to specify shard:

    class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
      shards :user_shard_01
      ....
    end

if you would like to execute a migration to all databases in the environments, use :all symbol:

    class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
      clusters :all
      ....
    end

== Connection Management
Rails's ConnectionManagement middleware keeps ActiveRecord's connection during the process is alive, but Turntable keeps more connections.
This may cause flooding max connections on your database. So, we made a middleware that disconnects on each request.
To use turntable's ConnectionManagement middleware, add below line to your initializer.

      app.middleware.swap ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::ConnectionManagement, ActiveRecord::Turntable::Rack::ConnectionManagement

== Inability
* Queries includes "ORDER BY", "GROUP BY" and "LIMIT" clauses cannot be distributed.
* "has many through" and "habtm" relationships causes wrong results. ex) User-Friend-User relation

== Thanks to
ConnectionProxy, Distributed Migration implementation is inspired by Octopus and DataFabric.
