Hello!
I am trying to implement a similar query with Ecto.Query
UPDATE table as t SET
(field_a, field_b) =
(select * from my_function(t.field_a, t.field_b, $1, $2) as (value1 uuid, value2 timestamp));
I was excepting something like this
from t in Table,
update: [set: [
{"(field_a, field_b)", fragment("(select * from my_function(?, ?, ?, ?)", t.field_a, t.field_b, ^uuid, ^ts)}
]
]
but set option accepts only atom fields.
Maybe someone know how to use similar functions in update query?

You might have to use the escape hatch for this one: Ecto.Adapters.SQL — Ecto SQL v3.14.0.
anoskov
Thanks. Use RAW SQL is one option but I use this update query as upsert on_conflict query in insert_all and this looks really ugly and may allow SQL injections. So I wanted use Ecto Query.

You can maybe join the results of your function and then use
update: [set: […]]with those joined values.anoskov
Good advice but unfortunately insert_all with on_conflict (Upsert) doesn’t work with join in Ecto.

I agree it doesn’t look as nice but you don’t have to worry about SQL injections if you are sending the user input as query parameters
I believe the database itself doesn’t allow
FROMin on conflict queries and it’s not an Ecto limitation, but I could be wrong. Do you have an example of this kind of query that works in your database but not in Ecto?anoskov
Yes, upsert doesn’t support
FROM.My full raw SQL query looks like:
