"""The Python datastore API used by app developers.

Defines Entity, Query, and Iterator classes, as well as methods for all of the
datastore's calls. Also defines conversions between the Python classes and
their PB counterparts.

The datastore errors are defined in the datastore_errors module. That module is
only required to avoid circular imports. datastore imports datastore_types,
which needs BadValueError, so it can't be defined in datastore.

class Query(dict):
  """A datastore query.

  (Instead of this, consider using appengine.ext.gql.Query! It provides a
  query language interface on top of the same functionality.)

  Queries are used to retrieve entities that match certain criteria, including
  app id, kind, and property filters. Results may also be sorted by properties.

  App id and kind are required. Only entities from the given app, of the given
  type, are returned. If an ancestor is set, with Ancestor(), only entities
  with that ancestor are returned.

  Property filters are used to provide criteria based on individual property
  values. A filter compares a specific property in each entity to a given
  value or list of possible values.

  An entity is returned if its property values match *all* of the query's
  filters. In other words, filters are combined with AND, not OR. If an
  entity does not have a value for a property used in a filter, it is not
  returned.

  Property filters map filter strings of the form '<property name> <operator>'
  to filter values. Use dictionary accessors to set property filters, like so:

  > query = Query('Person')
  > query['name ='] = 'Ryan'
  > query['age >='] = 21

  This query returns all Person entities where the name property is 'Ryan',
  'Ken', or 'Bret', and the age property is at least 21.

  Another way to build this query is:

  > query = Query('Person')
  > query.update({'name =': 'Ryan', 'age >=': 21})

  The supported operators are =, >, <, >=, and <=. Only one inequality
  filter may be used per query. Any number of equals filters may be used in
  a single Query.

  A filter value may be a list or tuple of values. This is interpreted as
  multiple filters with the same filter string and different values, all ANDed
  together. For example, this query returns everyone with the tags "google"
  and "app engine":

  > Query('Person', {'tag =': ('google', 'app engine')})

  Result entities can be returned in different orders. Use the Order()
  method to specify properties that results will be sorted by, and in which
  direction.

  Note that filters and orderings may be provided at any time before the query
  is run. When the query is fully specified, Run() runs the query and returns
  an iterator. The query results can be accessed through the iterator.

  A query object may be reused after it's been run. Its filters and
  orderings can be changed to create a modified query.

  If you know how many result entities you need, use Get() to fetch them:

  > query = Query('Person', {'age >': 21})
  > for person in query.Get(4):
  >   print 'I have four pints left. Have one on me, %s!' % person['name']

  If you don't know how many results you need, or if you need them all, you
  can get an iterator over the results by calling Run():

  > for person in Query('Person', {'age >': 21}).Run():
  >   print 'Have a pint on me, %s!' % person['name']

  Get() is more efficient than Run(), so use Get() whenever possible.

  Finally, the Count() method returns the number of result entities matched by
  the query. The returned count is cached; successive Count() calls will not
  re-scan the datastore unless the query is changed.

  Runs the user-provided function inside a full-featured, ACID datastore

  same entity group. Queries are not supported.

  The trailing arguments are passed to the function as positional arguments.
  If the function returns a value, that value will be returned by
  RunInTransaction. Otherwise, it will return None.

  The function may raise any exception to roll back the transaction instead of
  committing it. If this happens, the transaction will be rolled back and the
  exception will be re-raised up to RunInTransaction's caller.

  If you want to roll back intentionally, but don't have an appropriate
  exception to raise, you can raise an instance of datastore_errors.Rollback.
  It will cause a rollback, but will *not* be re-raised up to the caller.

  The function may be run more than once, so it should be idempotent. It
  should avoid side effects, and it shouldn't have *any* side effects that
  aren't safe to occur multiple times. This includes modifying the arguments,
  since they persist across invocations of the function. However, this doesn't
  include Put, Get, and Delete calls, of course.

  Example usage:

  > def decrement(key, amount=1):
  >   counter = datastore.Get(key)
  >   counter['count'] -= amount
  >   if counter['count'] < 0:    # don't let the counter go negative

  >   datastore.Put(counter)
  >
  > counter = datastore.Query('Counter', {'name': 'foo'})
  > datastore.RunInTransaction(decrement, counter.key(), amount=5)

  Transactions satisfy the traditional ACID properties. They are:

  - Atomic. All of a transaction's operations are executed or none of them are.

  - Consistent. The datastore's state is consistent before and after a
  transaction, whether it committed or rolled back. Invariants such as
  "every entity has a primary key" are preserved.

  - Isolated. Transactions operate on a snapshot of the datastore. Other
  datastore operations do not see intermediated effects of the transaction;
  they only see its effects after it has committed.

  - Durable. On commit, all writes are persisted to the datastore.

  Nested transactions are not supported.
