Detailed Description

template<template< typename > class ALLOC = std::allocator>
class gum::learning::DBInitializerFromSQL< ALLOC >

The class for initializing DatabaseTable and RawDatabaseTable instances from SQL databases.

In aGrUM, the usual way to create DatabaseTable instances used by learning algorithms is to use the 4-step process below:

Create an IDBInitializer instance (either a DBInitializerFromCSV or a DBInitializerFromSQL). This will enable to get the variables corresponding to the columns of the DatabaseTable.
Knowing these variables, create a DBTranslatorSet for encoding the lines of the CSV file or those of the SQL result into the appropriate values for the learning algorithms.
Create the DatabaseTable, passing it the DBTranslatorSet created in the preceding step. Use the IDBInitializer to provide the variables' names to the DatabaseTable.
Use the IDBInitializer to add the lines of the CSV file or those of the SQL result into the DatabaseTable.

The following codes show the details of this processe:: // 1/ use the initializer to parse all the columns/rows of a SQL result:
const std::string dataSource = "PostgreSQL";
const std::string login = "gonzales";
const std::string password = "agrum";
const std::string query = "SELECT * FROM testunit.asia";
gum::learning::DBInitializerFromSQL<>
initializer ( dataSource, login, password, query );
const auto& var_names = initializer.variableNames ();
const std::size_t nb_vars = var_names.size ();
// we create as many translators as there are variables
gum::learning::DBTranslator4LabelizedVariable<> translator;
gum::learning::DBTranslatorSet<> translator_set;
for ( std::size_t i = 0; i < nb_vars; ++i )
translator_set.insertTranslator ( translator, i );
// create a DatabaseTable with these translators. For the moment, the
// DatabaseTable will be empty, i.e., it will contain no row
gum::learning::DatabaseTable<> database ( translator_set );
database.setVariableNames( initializer.variableNames () );
// use the DBInitializerFromSQL to fill the rows:
initializer.fillDatabase ( database );
// now, the database contains all the content of the ASIA database
// 2/ use an IDBInitializer to initialize a DatabaseTable, but ignore
// some columns.
gum::learning::DBInitializerFromSQL<>
initializer2 ( dataSource, login, password, query );
gum::learning::DatabaseTable<> database2; // empty database
// indicate which columns of the SQL result should be read
database2.insertTranslator ( translator, 1 );
database2.insertTranslator ( translator, 3 );
database2.insertTranslator ( translator, 4 );
// sets the names of the columns correctly
database2.setVariableNames( initializer2.variableNames () );
// fill the rows:
initializer2.fillDatabase ( database2 );
// now all the rows of the SQL result have been transferred into
// database2, but only columns 1, 3 and 4 of the SQL result have
// been kept.
// 3/ another possibility to initialize a DatabaseTable, ignoring
// some columns:
gum::learning::DBInitializerFromSQL<>
initializer3 ( dataSource, login, password, query );
gum::learning::DatabaseTable<> database3 ( translator_set );
// here, database3 is an empty database but it contains already
// translators for all the columns of the SQL result. We shall now
// remove the columns/translators that are not wanted anymore
database3.ignoreColumn ( 0 );
database3.ignoreColumn ( 2 );
database3.ignoreColumn ( 5 );
database3.ignoreColumn ( 6 );
database3.ignoreColumn ( 7 );
// asia contains 8 columns. The above ignoreColumns keep only columns
// 1, 3 and 4.
// sets the names of the columns correctly
database3.setVariableNames( initializer3.variableNames () );
// fill the rows:
initializer3.fillDatabase ( database3 );
// now all the rows of the SQL result have been transferred into
// database3, but only columns 1, 3 and 4 of the SQL result have
// been kept.

◆ DBInitializerFromSQL() [1/6]

template<template< typename > class ALLOC = std::allocator>

gum::learning::DBInitializerFromSQL< ALLOC >::DBInitializerFromSQL	(	const std::string &	dataSource,
		const std::string &	login,
		const std::string &	password,
		const std::string &	query,
		long	timeout = `0L`,
		const allocator_type &	alloc = `allocator_type()`
	)

default constructor, especially for postgresql databases

This will read the result of query and load it in memory.

Parameters

dataSource	A declared dataSource in your odbc configuration file (usually /etc/odbc.ini).
login	The dataSource login.
password	The dataSource password.
query	The SQL query used as a database.
timeout	Defines a timeout for accessing the SQL database, if 0 then no timeout is set.
alloc	the allocator used to allocate all the data structures

◆ DBInitializerFromSQL() [2/6]

template<template< typename > class ALLOC = std::allocator>

		const allocator_type &	alloc = `allocator_type()`
	)

default constructor, especially for sqlite databases

This will read the result of query and load it in memory.

Parameters

connection_string	a string specifying to nanODBC how to connect to a SQL database
query	The SQL query used as a database.
timeout	Defines a timeout for accessing the SQL database, if 0 then no timeout is set.
