Sequel is a lightweight database access toolkit for Ruby.

  • Sequel provides thread safety, connection pooling and a concise
    DSL for constructing SQL queries and table schemas.
  • Sequel includes a comprehensive ORM layer for mapping records to
    Ruby objects and handling associated records.
  • Sequel supports advanced database features such as prepared
    statements, bound variables, stored procedures, savepoints,
    two-phase commit, transaction isolation, master/slave
    configurations, and database sharding.
  • Sequel currently has adapters for ADO, Amalgalite, CUBRID,
    DataObjects, DB2, DBI, Firebird, IBM_DB, Informix, JDBC, MySQL,
    Mysql2, ODBC, OpenBase, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQLAnywhere, SQLite3,
    Swift, and TinyTDS.

Sequel 4.6.0 has been released!

= New Features

  • Database#call_mssql_sproc is now available for calling
    stored procedures on Microsoft SQL Server, including the use
    of output parameters.

  • The Database#{commit,rollback}_prepared_transaction methods now
    support a :server option for the server on which to operate.

= Other Improvements

  • On Microsoft SQL Server 2012, the native OFFSET/FETCH support
    is now used for offsets, instead of emulating support via the
    ROW_NUMBER window function.

  • Eager loading is now skipped when doing eager(…).naked.all on
    a model dataset, instead of raising an error. This can fix issues
    when the eager_each plugin is used.

  • A couple additional disconnection errors are now detected in the
    jdbc/postgresql adapter.

  • The tinytds adapter now handles returning rows when the fields
    are not immediately available.

  • RuntimeErrors raised by oci8 are now handled correctly in the
    oracle adapter.

  • Sequel’s specs now work with RSpec 3, while still running
    correctly on RSpec 1.3 and 2.
