Introduction and changelog

Python client API (v5.2) for RavenDB , a NoSQL document database.

Although new API isn't compatible with the previous one, it comes with many improvements and new features.

Package has been reworked to match Java and other RavenDB clients

Type-hinted entire project and API results - using the API is now much more comfortable with IntelliSense

Documentation

Getting started

  1. Import the DocumentStore class from the ravendb module
from ravendb import DocumentStore
  1. Initialize the document store (you should have a single DocumentStore instance per application)
store = DocumentStore('http://live-test.ravendb.net', 'databaseName')
store.initialize()
  1. Open a session
with store.open_session() as session:
  1. Call save_changes() when you're done
    user = session.load('users/1-A') 
    user.name = "Gracjan"
    session.save_changes()
    
# Data is now persisted
# You can proceed e.g. finish web request

CRUD example

Store documents

product = Product(
    Id=None,
    title='iPhone 14 Pro Max',
    price=1199.99,
    currency='USD',
    storage=256,
    manufacturer='Apple',
    in_stock=True,
    last_update=datetime.datetime.now(),
)

session.store(product, 'products/1-A')
print(product.Id) # products/1-A
session.save_changes()
Some related tests:

store()
ID generation - session.store()
store document with @metadata
storing docs with same ID in same session should throw

Load documents

product = session.load('products/1-A')
print(product.title) # iPhone 14 Pro Max
print(product.Id)    # products/1-A
Related tests:

load()

Load documents with include

# users/1
# {
#      "name": "John",
#      "kids": ["users/2", "users/3"]
# }

session = store.open_session()
user1 = session.include("kids").load("users/1")
  # Document users/1 and all docs referenced in "kids"
  # will be fetched from the server in a single request.

user2 = session.load("users/2") 
# this won't call server again

assert(user1 is not None)
assert(user2 is not None)
assert(session.advanced.number_of_requests == 1)
Related tests:

can load with includes

Update documents

import datetime

product = session.load('products/1-A')
product.in_stock = False
product.last_update = datetime.datetime.now()
session.save_changes()
# ...
product =  session.load('products/1-A')
print(product.in_stock) # false
print(product.last_update) # the current date
Related tests:

update document
update document metadata

Delete documents

  1. Using entity
product =  session.load('products/1-A')
session.delete(product)
session.save_changes()

product = session.load('products/1-A')
print(product) # None
  1. Using document ID
 session.delete('products/1-A')
Related tests:

delete doc by entity
delete doc by ID
cannot delete after change
loading deleted doc returns null

Query documents

  1. Use query() session method:

Query by collection:

import datetime
from ravendb import DocumentStore, QueryOperator

store = DocumentStore()
store.initialize()

session = store.open_session()
session.query_collection(str()).not_()

Query by index name:

query = session.query_index("productsByCategory")

Query by index:

query = session.query_index_type(Product_ByName, Product) # the second argument (object_type) is optional, as always

Query by entity type:

query = session.query(object_type=User) # object_type is an optional argument, but we can call this method only with it 
  1. Build up the query - apply search conditions, set ordering, etc.
    Query supports chaining calls:
query = session.query_collection("Users") 
    .wait_for_non_stale_results() 
    .using_default_operator(QueryOperator.AND) 
    .where_equals("manufacturer", "Apple")
    .where_equals("in_stock", True)
    .where_between("last_update", datetime.datetime(2022,11,1), datetime.datetime.now()).order_by("price")
  1. Execute the query to get results:
results =  list(query) # get all results
# ...
first_result =  query.first() # gets first result
# ...
single =  query.single()  # gets single result 

Query methods overview

select_fields() - projections using a single field

# from users select name

# Query
class UserProj:
    def __init__(self, name: str = None, age: int = None):

        self.age = age


user_names = [user_proj.name for user_proj in session.query_collection("Users").select_fields(UserProj, "name")]

# Sample results
# John, Stefanie, Thomas

using_default_operator()

If neither and_also() nor or_else() is called then the default operator between the query filtering conditions will be AND .
You can override that with using_default_operator which must be called before any other where conditions.

# from users where exists(kids) or age < 29
# Query
from ravendb import QueryOperator

list(session.query_collection("Users")
    .using_default_operator(QueryOperator.OR) # override the default 'AND' operator

Getting query statistics

Use the statistics() method to obtain query statistics.

# Query
statistics: QueryStatistics = None
def __statistics_callback(stats: QueryStatistics):
    nonlocal statistics
    statistics = stats  # plug-in the reference, value will be changed later

results = list(session.query_collection("Users")
               .where_greater_than("age", 29)
               .statistics(__statistics_callback))

# Sample results
# QueryStatistics {
#   is_stale: false,
#   duration_in_ms: 744,

Counters

There are many ways to play with counters. The most common path is to use session API (session.counters_for()).

    with store.open_session() as session:
        user1 = User("Aviv1")
        user2 = User("Aviv2")
        session.store(user1, "users/1-A")
        session.store(user2, "users/2-A")
        session.save_changes()

    # storing counters via session API
    with store.open_session() as session:
        session.counters_for("users/1-A").increment("likes", 100)
        session.counters_for("users/1-A").increment("downloads", 500)
        session.counters_for("users/2-A").increment("votes", 1000)

        session.save_changes()

    # alternatively, loading counters via GetCountersOperation
    counters = store.operations.send(GetCountersOperation("users/1-A", ["likes", "downloads"])).counters
    
    # loading counters via session API
    with store.open_session() as session:
        user1_likes = session.counters_for("users/1-A").get("likes")

    # deleting counters via session API
    with store.open_session() as session:
        session.counters_for("users/1-A").delete("likes")
        session.counters_for("users/1-A").delete("downloads")
        session.counters_for("users/2-A").delete("votes")

        session.save_changes()
Playing with counters using CounterBatchOperation
counter_operation = DocumentCountersOperation(document_id="users/1-A", operations=[])
counter_operation.add_operations(
    CounterOperation("Likes", counter_operation_type=CounterOperationType.INCREMENT, delta=4)
)
counter_operation.add_operations(
    CounterOperation(
        "Shares",
        counter_operation_type=CounterOperationType.INCREMENT,
        delta=422,
    )
)
counter_operation.add_operations(CounterOperation("Likes", counter_operation_type=CounterOperationType.DELETE))

counter_batch = CounterBatch(documents=[counter_operation])
results = self.store.operations.send(CounterBatchOperation(counter_batch))

Bulk insert

Bulk insert is the efficient way to store a large amount of documents.

https://ravendb.net/docs/article-page/5.4/csharp/client-api/bulk-insert/how-to-work-with-bulk-insert-operation.

For example:

foo_bar1 = FooBar("John Doe")
foo_bar2 = FooBar("Jane Doe")
foo_bar3 = FooBar("John")
foo_bar4 = FooBar("Jane")

with store.bulk_insert() as bulk_insert:
    bulk_insert.store(foo_bar1)
    bulk_insert.store(foo_bar2)
    bulk_insert.store_as(foo_bar3, "foobars/66")
    bulk_insert.store_as(foo_bar4, "foobars/99", MetadataAsDictionary({"some_metadata_value": 75}))

The 3rd insert will store document named "foobars/66".

The 4th insert will store document with custom name and extra metadata.

Using classes for entities

  1. Define your model as class.
import datetime


class Product:
    def __init__(self, Id: str = None, title: str = None, price: int = None, currency: str = None, storage: int = None,
                 manufacturer: str = None, in_stock: bool = False, last_update: datetime.datetime = None):
        self.Id = Id
        self.title = title
        self.price = price
        self.currency = currency
        self.storage = storage
        self.manufacturer = manufacturer
        self.in_stock = in_stock
        self.last_update = last_update
  1. To store a document pass its instance to store().
    The collection name will automatically be detected from the entity's class name.
import datetime
from models import Product

product = Product(None, 'iPhone X', 999.99, 'USD', 64, 'Apple', True, datetime.datetime(2017,10,1))
product = session.store(product)
print(isinstance(product, Product))  # True
print('products/' in product.Id)  # True
session.save_changes()
  1. Loading a document
product =  session.load('products/1-A')
print(isinstance(product, Product))     # True
print(product.Id)                       # products/1-A
  1. Querying for documents
products =  list(session.query_collection("Products"))

for product in products:
    print(isinstance(product, Product))   # True
    print("products/" in product.Id)      # True

Working with secured server

from ravendb import DocumentStore

URLS = ["https://raven.server.url"]
DB_NAME = "SecuredDemo"
CERT_PATH = "path\\to\\cert.pem"


class User:
    def __init__(self, name: str, tag: str):
        self.name = name
        self.tag = tag


store = DocumentStore(URLS, DB_NAME)
store.certificate_pem_path = CERT_PATH
store.initialize()
user = User("Gracjan", "Admin")

with store.open_session() as session:
    session.store(user, "users/1")
    session.save_changes()

with store.open_session() as session:
    user = session.load("users/1", User)
    assert user.name == "Gracjan"
    assert user.tag == "Admin"
