This method is used for an ORM use case described at
:ref:`relationship_custom_operator_sql_function`.
A hypothetical SQL function "is_equal()" which compares to values
for equality would be written in the Core expression language as::
expr = func.is_equal("a", "b")
If "is_equal()" above is comparing "a" and "b" for equality, the
:meth:`.FunctionElement.as_comparison` method would be invoked as::
expr = func.is_equal("a", "b").as_comparison(1, 2)
Where above, the integer value "1" refers to the first argument of the
"is_equal()" function and the integer value "2" refers to the second.
This would create a :class:`.BinaryExpression` that is equivalent to::
BinaryExpression("a", "b", operator=op.eq)
However, at the SQL level it would still render as
"is_equal('a', 'b')".
The ORM, when it loads a related object or collection, needs to be able
to manipulate the "left" and "right" sides of the ON clause of a JOIN
expression. The purpose of this method is to provide a SQL function
construct that can also supply this information to the ORM, when used
with the :paramref:`_orm.relationship.primaryjoin` parameter. The
return value is a containment object called :class:`.FunctionAsBinary`.
An ORM example is as follows::
class Venue(Base):
__tablename__ = 'venue'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
name = Column(String)
descendants = relationship(
"Venue",
primaryjoin=func.instr(
remote(foreign(name)), name + "/"
).as_comparison(1, 2) == 1,
viewonly=True,
order_by=name
)
Above, the "Venue" class can load descendant "Venue" objects by
determining if the name of the parent Venue is contained within the
start of the hypothetical descendant value's name, e.g. "parent1" would
match up to "parent1/child1", but not to "parent2/child1".
Possible use cases include the "materialized path" example given above,
as well as making use of special SQL functions such as geometric
functions to create join conditions.
:param left_index: the integer 1-based index of the function argument
that serves as the "left" side of the expression.
:param right_index: the integer 1-based index of the function argument

.. tip::
The :meth:`_functions.FunctionElement.alias` method is part of the
mechanism by which "table valued" SQL functions are created.
However, most use cases are covered by higher level methods on
:class:`_functions.FunctionElement` including
:meth:`_functions.FunctionElement.table_valued`, and
:meth:`_functions.FunctionElement.column_valued`.
This construct wraps the function in a named alias which
is suitable for the FROM clause, in the style accepted for example
by PostgreSQL. A column expression is also provided using the
special ``.column`` attribute, which may
be used to refer to the output of the function as a scalar value
in the columns or where clause, for a backend such as PostgreSQL.
For a full table-valued expression, use the
:meth:`_functions.FunctionElement.table_valued` method first to
establish named columns.
e.g.:
.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql
>>> from sqlalchemy import func, select, column
>>> data_view = func.unnest([1, 2, 3]).alias("data_view")
>>> print(select(data_view.column))
{printsql}SELECT data_view
FROM unnest(:unnest_1) AS data_view
The :meth:`_functions.FunctionElement.column_valued` method provides
a shortcut for the above pattern:
.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql
>>> data_view = func.unnest([1, 2, 3]).column_valued("data_view")
>>> print(select(data_view))
{printsql}SELECT data_view
FROM unnest(:unnest_1) AS data_view

:data:`.func` is a special object instance which generates SQL
functions based on name-based attributes, e.g.:
.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql
>>> print(func.count(1))
{printsql}count(:param_1)
The returned object is an instance of :class:`.Function`, and is a
column-oriented SQL element like any other, and is used in that way:
.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql
>>> print(select(func.count(table.c.id)))
{printsql}SELECT count(sometable.id) FROM sometable
Any name can be given to :data:`.func`. If the function name is unknown to
SQLAlchemy, it will be rendered exactly as is. For common SQL functions
which SQLAlchemy is aware of, the name may be interpreted as a *generic
function* which will be compiled appropriately to the target database:
.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql
>>> print(func.current_timestamp())
{printsql}CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
To call functions which are present in dot-separated packages,
specify them in the same manner:
.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql
>>> print(func.stats.yield_curve(5, 10))
{printsql}stats.yield_curve(:yield_curve_1, :yield_curve_2)
SQLAlchemy can be made aware of the return type of functions to enable
type-specific lexical and result-based behavior. For example, to ensure
that a string-based function returns a Unicode value and is similarly
treated as a string in expressions, specify
:class:`~sqlalchemy.types.Unicode` as the type:
.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql
>>> print(func.my_string(u'hi', type_=Unicode) + ' ' +
... func.my_string(u'there', type_=Unicode))
{printsql}my_string(:my_string_1) || :my_string_2 || my_string(:my_string_3)
The object returned by a :data:`.func` call is usually an instance of
:class:`.Function`.
This object meets the "column" interface, including comparison and labeling
functions. The object can also be passed the :meth:`~.Connectable.execute`
method of a :class:`_engine.Connection` or :class:`_engine.Engine`,
where it will be
wrapped inside of a SELECT statement first::
print(connection.execute(func.current_timestamp()).scalar())
In a few exception cases, the :data:`.func` accessor
will redirect a name to a built-in expression such as :func:`.cast`
or :func:`.extract`, as these names have well-known meaning
but are not exactly the same as "functions" from a SQLAlchemy
perspective.
Functions which are interpreted as "generic" functions know how to
calculate their return type automatically. For a listing of known generic
functions, see :ref:`generic_functions`.
.. note::
The :data:`.func` construct has only limited support for calling
standalone "stored procedures", especially those with special
parameterization concerns.
See the section :ref:`stored_procedures` for details on how to use
the DBAPI-level ``callproc()`` method for fully traditional stored
procedures.

class GenericFunction(Function[_T]):
"""Define a 'generic' function.
A generic function is a pre-established :class:`.Function`
class that is instantiated automatically when called
by name from the :data:`.func` attribute. Note that
calling any name from :data:`.func` has the effect that
a new :class:`.Function` instance is created automatically,
given that name. The primary use case for defining
a :class:`.GenericFunction` class is so that a function
of a particular name may be given a fixed return type.
It can also include custom argument parsing schemes as well
as additional methods.
Subclasses of :class:`.GenericFunction` are automatically
registered under the name of the class. For
example, a user-defined function ``as_utc()`` would
be available immediately::
from sqlalchemy.sql.functions import GenericFunction
from sqlalchemy.types import DateTime
class as_utc(GenericFunction):
type = DateTime()
inherit_cache = True
print(select(func.as_utc()))
User-defined generic functions can be organized into
packages by specifying the "package" attribute when defining
:class:`.GenericFunction`. Third party libraries
containing many functions may want to use this in order
to avoid name conflicts with other systems. For example,
if our ``as_utc()`` function were part of a package
"time"::
class as_utc(GenericFunction):
type = DateTime()
package = "time"
inherit_cache = True
The above function would be available from :data:`.func`
using the package name ``time``::
print(select(func.time.as_utc()))
A final option is to allow the function to be accessed
from one name in :data:`.func` but to render as a different name.
The ``identifier`` attribute will override the name used to
access the function as loaded from :data:`.func`, but will retain
the usage of ``name`` as the rendered name::
class GeoBuffer(GenericFunction):
type = Geometry()
package = "geo"
name = "ST_Buffer"
identifier = "buffer"
inherit_cache = True
The above function will render as follows:
.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql
>>> print(func.geo.buffer())
{printsql}ST_Buffer()
The name will be rendered as is, however without quoting unless the name
contains special characters that require quoting. To force quoting
on or off for the name, use the :class:`.sqlalchemy.sql.quoted_name`
construct::
from sqlalchemy.sql import quoted_name
class GeoBuffer(GenericFunction):
type = Geometry()
package = "geo"
name = quoted_name("ST_Buffer", True)
identifier = "buffer"
inherit_cache = True
The above function will render as:
.. sourcecode:: pycon+sql
>>> print(func.geo.buffer())
{printsql}"ST_Buffer"()
Type parameters for this class as a
`generic type <https://peps.python.org/pep-0484/#generics>`_ can be passed
and should match the type seen in a :class:`_engine.Result`. For example::
class as_utc(GenericFunction[datetime.datetime]):
type = DateTime()
inherit_cache = True
The above indicates that the following expression returns a ``datetime``
object::
connection.scalar(select(func.as_utc()))
.. versionadded:: 1.3.13 The :class:`.quoted_name` construct is now
recognized for quoting when used with the "name" attribute of the
object, so that quoting can be forced on or off for the function
name.
