Returns:

an in-build SELECT statement.

public abstract Select.SelectionOrAlias column(String name)

Selects the provided column.

Parameters:

name - the new column name to add.

Returns:

this in-build SELECT statement

writeTime

public abstract Select.SelectionOrAlias writeTime(String name)

Selects the write time of provided column.

This is a shortcut for fcall("writetime", QueryBuilder.column(name)).

Parameters:

name - the name of the column to select the write time of.

Returns:

this in-build SELECT statement

ttl

public abstract Select.SelectionOrAlias ttl(String name)

Selects the ttl of provided column.

This is a shortcut for fcall("ttl", QueryBuilder.column(name)).

Parameters:

name - the name of the column to select the ttl of.

fcall

public abstract Select.SelectionOrAlias fcall(String name,
                                              Object... parameters)

Creates a function call.

Please note that the parameters are interpreted as values, and so fcall("textToBlob", "foo") will generate the string "textToBlob('foo')". If you want to generate "textToBlob(foo)", i.e. if the argument must be interpreted as a column name (in a select clause), you will need to use the QueryBuilder.column(java.lang.String) method, and so fcall("textToBlob", QueryBuilder.column(foo).

Parameters:

name - the name of the function.

parameters - the parameters for the function call.

Returns:

this in-build SELECT statement
