Standard type descriptors provided as a submodule for easy inclusion.

Composite

The following provides constructors for narrow tuple types; to describe wider tuple types, use nested application.

val option : 'a t -> 'a option t
val unit : unit t

A holding no fields. This is used to pass no parameters and as the result for queries which does not return any rows. It can also be nested in tuples, in which case it will not contribute to the total number of fields.

val tup2 : 'a t -> 'b t -> ('a * 'b) t

Creates a pair type.

val tup3 : 'a t -> 'b t -> 'c t -> ('a * 'b * 'c) t

Creates a 3-tuple type.

val tup4 : 'a t -> 'b t -> 'c t -> 'd t -> ('a * 'b * 'c * 'd) t

Creates a 4-tuple type.

val custom : encode:('a -> ('b, string) result) -> decode:('b -> ('a, string) result) -> 'b t -> 'a t

custom ~encode ~decode rep creates a custom type represented by rep, where encode is used to encode parameters into rep and decode is used to decode result rows from rep.

Note. This should be considered experimental and may be revised or removed in a future version.

Singular

val bool : bool t

A boolean.

val int : int t

An integer.

val int32 : int32 t

A 32 bit integer.

val int64 : int64 t

A 64 bit integer.

val float : float t

A float.

val string : string t

An UTF-8 string. The database should accept UTF-8 if non-ASCII characters are present.

val octets : string t

A binary string.

val pdate : Ptime.t t

A date. This corresponds to the SQL date type.

val ptime : Ptime.t t

An absolute time with driver-dependent precision. This corresponds to an SQL timestamp type with UTC time zone.

val ptime_span : Ptime.span t

A period of time. If the database lacks a dedicated representation, the integer number of seconds is used.
