Structure
SQLList
A fundamental syntactical expression - a list of subexpresions with a specified “separator” subexpression.
struct SQLList
Overview
When serialized, an empty SQLList outputs nothing, a single-item SQLList outputs the serialization of that one expression, and all other SQLLists output the entire list of subexpressions joined by an appropriate number of copies of the separator subexpression. The default separator is SQLRaw(", ").
Examples:
print(database.serialize(SQLList(SQLLiteral.string("a"), SQLLiteral.string("b"))).sql)
// "'a', 'b'"
print(database.serialize(SQLList(SQLLiteral.string("a"), SQLLiteral.string("b"), separator: SQLBinaryOperator.and)).sql)
// "'a'AND'b'"
print(database.serialize(SQLList(SQLLiteral.string("a"), SQLLiteral.string("b"), separator: SQLRaw(" AND ")).sql)
// "'a' AND 'b'"
