How to put items underneath each other flex box in Bootstrap 4 ?

Flexbox in Bootstrap 4: From bootstrap 3 to bootstrap 4 amazing change has occurred that bootstrap 4 can utilize flexbox to handle the layout of content. The FlexBox Layout Module makes it easier to design a flexible responsive layout structure.

Approach: Place the direction of flex items in a flex container with direction utilities. In most cases, you will be able to exclude the horizontal class as the browser default is a row. In any case, you will experience circumstances where you required to explicitly set this esteem (like responsive layouts).

The following Examples represent different ways to put items underneath each other in a Flex-Box.

**Example 1: **Use .**flex-column **class to put items underneath each other.

<div class="d-flex flex-column"></div>

Plpgsql Check: Extension That Allows to Check Plpgsql Source Code.

plpgsql_check

I founded this project, because I wanted to publish the code I wrote in the last two years, when I tried to write enhanced checking for PostgreSQL upstream. It was not fully successful - integration into upstream requires some larger plpgsql refactoring - probably it will not be done in next years (now is Dec 2013). But written code is fully functional and can be used in production (and it is used in production). So, I created this extension to be available for all plpgsql developers.

If you like it and if you would to join to development of this extension, register yourself to postgresql extension hacking google group.

Features

  • check fields of referenced database objects and types inside embedded SQL
  • using correct types of function parameters
  • unused variables and function argumens, unmodified OUT argumens
  • partially detection of dead code (due RETURN command)
  • detection of missing RETURN command in function
  • try to identify unwanted hidden casts, that can be performance issue like unused indexes
  • possibility to collect relations and functions used by function
  • possibility to check EXECUTE stmt agaist SQL injection vulnerability

I invite any ideas, patches, bugreports.

plpgsql_check is next generation of plpgsql_lint. It allows to check source code by explicit call plpgsql_check_function.

PostgreSQL PostgreSQL 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 are supported.

The SQL statements inside PL/pgSQL functions are checked by validator for semantic errors. These errors can be found by plpgsql_check_function:

Active mode

postgres=# CREATE EXTENSION plpgsql_check;
LOAD
postgres=# CREATE TABLE t1(a int, b int);
CREATE TABLE

postgres=#
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.f1()
RETURNS void
LANGUAGE plpgsql
AS $function$
DECLARE r record;
BEGIN
  FOR r IN SELECT * FROM t1
  LOOP
    RAISE NOTICE '%', r.c; -- there is bug - table t1 missing "c" column
  END LOOP;
END;
$function$;

CREATE FUNCTION

postgres=# select f1(); -- execution doesn't find a bug due to empty table t1

Arguments

You can set level of warnings via function's parameters:

Mandatory arguments

  • function name or function signature - these functions requires function specification. Any function in PostgreSQL can be specified by Oid or by name or by signature. When you know oid or complete function's signature, you can use a regprocedure type parameter like 'fx()'::regprocedure or 16799::regprocedure. Possible alternative is using a name only, when function's name is unique - like 'fx'. When the name is not unique or the function doesn't exists it raises a error.

Optional arguments

relid DEFAULT 0 - oid of relation assigned with trigger function. It is necessary for check of any trigger function.

fatal_errors boolean DEFAULT true - stop on first error

other_warnings boolean DEFAULT true - show warnings like different attributes number in assignmenet on left and right side, variable overlaps function's parameter, unused variables, unwanted casting, ..

extra_warnings boolean DEFAULT true - show warnings like missing RETURN, shadowed variables, dead code, never read (unused) function's parameter, unmodified variables, modified auto variables, ..

performance_warnings boolean DEFAULT false - performance related warnings like declared type with type modificator, casting, implicit casts in where clause (can be reason why index is not used), ..

security_warnings boolean DEFAULT false - security related checks like SQL injection vulnerability detection

anyelementtype regtype DEFAULT 'int' - a real type used instead anyelement type

anyenumtype regtype DEFAULT '-' - a real type used instead anyenum type

anyrangetype regtype DEFAULT 'int4range' - a real type used instead anyrange type

anycompatibletype DEFAULT 'int' - a real type used instead anycompatible type

anycompatiblerangetype DEFAULT 'int4range' - a real type used instead anycompatible range type

without_warnings DEFAULT false - disable all warnings

all_warnings DEFAULT false - enable all warnings

newtable DEFAULT NULL, oldtable DEFAULT NULL - the names of NEW or OLD transitive tables. These parameters are required when transitive tables are used.

Triggers

When you want to check any trigger, you have to enter a relation that will be used together with trigger function

CREATE TABLE bar(a int, b int);

postgres=# \sf+ foo_trg
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.foo_trg()
         RETURNS trigger
         LANGUAGE plpgsql
1       AS $function$
2       BEGIN
3         NEW.c := NEW.a + NEW.b;
4         RETURN NEW;
5       END;
6       $function$

Missing relation specification

postgres=# select * from plpgsql_check_function('foo_trg()');
ERROR:  missing trigger relation
HINT:  Trigger relation oid must be valid

Correct trigger checking (with specified relation)

postgres=# select * from plpgsql_check_function('foo_trg()', 'bar');
                 plpgsql_check_function                 
--------------------------------------------------------
 error:42703:3:assignment:record "new" has no field "c"
(1 row)

For triggers with transitive tables you can set a oldtable or newtable parameters:

create or replace function footab_trig_func()
returns trigger as $$
declare x int;
begin
  if false then
    -- should be ok;
    select count(*) from newtab into x; 

    -- should fail;
    select count(*) from newtab where d = 10 into x;
  end if;
  return null;
end;
$$ language plpgsql;

select * from plpgsql_check_function('footab_trig_func','footab', newtable := 'newtab');

Mass check

You can use the plpgsql_check_function for mass check functions and mass check triggers. Please, test following queries:

-- check all nontrigger plpgsql functions
SELECT p.oid, p.proname, plpgsql_check_function(p.oid)
   FROM pg_catalog.pg_namespace n
   JOIN pg_catalog.pg_proc p ON pronamespace = n.oid
   JOIN pg_catalog.pg_language l ON p.prolang = l.oid
  WHERE l.lanname = 'plpgsql' AND p.prorettype <> 2279;

or

SELECT p.proname, tgrelid::regclass, cf.*
   FROM pg_proc p
        JOIN pg_trigger t ON t.tgfoid = p.oid 
        JOIN pg_language l ON p.prolang = l.oid
        JOIN pg_namespace n ON p.pronamespace = n.oid,
        LATERAL plpgsql_check_function(p.oid, t.tgrelid) cf
  WHERE n.nspname = 'public' and l.lanname = 'plpgsql'

or

-- check all plpgsql functions (functions or trigger functions with defined triggers)
SELECT
    (pcf).functionid::regprocedure, (pcf).lineno, (pcf).statement,
    (pcf).sqlstate, (pcf).message, (pcf).detail, (pcf).hint, (pcf).level,
    (pcf)."position", (pcf).query, (pcf).context
FROM
(
    SELECT
        plpgsql_check_function_tb(pg_proc.oid, COALESCE(pg_trigger.tgrelid, 0)) AS pcf
    FROM pg_proc
    LEFT JOIN pg_trigger
        ON (pg_trigger.tgfoid = pg_proc.oid)
    WHERE
        prolang = (SELECT lang.oid FROM pg_language lang WHERE lang.lanname = 'plpgsql') AND
        pronamespace <> (SELECT nsp.oid FROM pg_namespace nsp WHERE nsp.nspname = 'pg_catalog') AND
        -- ignore unused triggers
        (pg_proc.prorettype <> (SELECT typ.oid FROM pg_type typ WHERE typ.typname = 'trigger') OR
         pg_trigger.tgfoid IS NOT NULL)
    OFFSET 0
) ss
ORDER BY (pcf).functionid::regprocedure::text, (pcf).lineno

Passive mode

Functions should be checked on start - plpgsql_check module must be loaded.

Configuration

plpgsql_check.mode = [ disabled | by_function | fresh_start | every_start ]
plpgsql_check.fatal_errors = [ yes | no ]

plpgsql_check.show_nonperformance_warnings = false
plpgsql_check.show_performance_warnings = false

Default mode is by_function, that means that the enhanced check is done only in active mode - by plpgsql_check_function. fresh_start means cold start.

You can enable passive mode by

load 'plpgsql'; -- 1.1 and higher doesn't need it
load 'plpgsql_check';
set plpgsql_check.mode = 'every_start';

SELECT fx(10); -- run functions - function is checked before runtime starts it

Limits

plpgsql_check should find almost all errors on really static code. When developer use some PLpgSQL's dynamic features like dynamic SQL or record data type, then false positives are possible. These should be rare - in well written code - and then the affected function should be redesigned or plpgsql_check should be disabled for this function.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f1()
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE r record;
BEGIN
  FOR r IN EXECUTE 'SELECT * FROM t1'
  LOOP
    RAISE NOTICE '%', r.c;
  END LOOP;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql SET plpgsql.enable_check TO false;

A usage of plpgsql_check adds a small overhead (in enabled passive mode) and you should use it only in develop or preprod environments.

Dynamic SQL

This module doesn't check queries that are assembled in runtime. It is not possible to identify results of dynamic queries - so plpgsql_check cannot to set correct type to record variables and cannot to check a dependent SQLs and expressions.

When type of record's variable is not know, you can assign it explicitly with pragma type:

DECLARE r record;
BEGIN
  EXECUTE format('SELECT * FROM %I', _tablename) INTO r;
  PERFORM plpgsql_check_pragma('type: r (id int, processed bool)');
  IF NOT r.processed THEN
    ...

Attention: The SQL injection check can detect only some SQL injection vulnerabilities. This tool cannot be used for security audit! Some issues should not be detected. This check can raise false alarms too - probably when variable is sanitized by other command or when value is of some compose type. 

Refcursors

plpgsql_check should not to detect structure of referenced cursors. A reference on cursor in PLpgSQL is implemented as name of global cursor. In check time, the name is not known (not in all possibilities), and global cursor doesn't exist. It is significant break for any static analyse. PLpgSQL cannot to set correct type for record variables and cannot to check a dependent SQLs and expressions. A solution is same like dynamic SQL. Don't use record variable as target when you use refcursor type or disable plpgsql_check for these functions.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION foo(refcur_var refcursor)
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE
  rec_var record;
BEGIN
  FETCH refcur_var INTO rec_var; -- this is STOP for plpgsql_check
  RAISE NOTICE '%', rec_var;     -- record rec_var is not assigned yet error

In this case a record type should not be used (use known rowtype instead):

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION foo(refcur_var refcursor)
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE
  rec_var some_rowtype;
BEGIN
  FETCH refcur_var INTO rec_var;
  RAISE NOTICE '%', rec_var;

Temporary tables

plpgsql_check cannot verify queries over temporary tables that are created in plpgsql's function runtime. For this use case it is necessary to create a fake temp table or disable plpgsql_check for this function.

In reality temp tables are stored in own (per user) schema with higher priority than persistent tables. So you can do (with following trick safetly):

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.disable_dml()
RETURNS trigger
LANGUAGE plpgsql AS $function$
BEGIN
  RAISE EXCEPTION SQLSTATE '42P01'
     USING message = format('this instance of %I table doesn''t allow any DML operation', TG_TABLE_NAME),
           hint = format('you should to run "CREATE TEMP TABLE %1$I(LIKE %1$I INCLUDING ALL);" statement',
                         TG_TABLE_NAME);
  RETURN NULL;
END;
$function$;

CREATE TABLE foo(a int, b int); -- doesn't hold data ever
CREATE TRIGGER foo_disable_dml
   BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE ON foo
   EXECUTE PROCEDURE disable_dml();

postgres=# INSERT INTO  foo VALUES(10,20);
ERROR:  this instance of foo table doesn't allow any DML operation
HINT:  you should to run "CREATE TEMP TABLE foo(LIKE foo INCLUDING ALL);" statement
postgres=# 

CREATE TABLE
postgres=# INSERT INTO  foo VALUES(10,20);
INSERT 0 1

This trick emulates GLOBAL TEMP tables partially and it allows a statical validation. Other possibility is using a [template foreign data wrapper] (https://github.com/okbob/template_fdw)

You can use pragma table and create ephemeral table:

BEGIN
   CREATE TEMP TABLE xxx(a int);
   PERFORM plpgsql_check_pragma('table: xxx(a int)');
   INSERT INTO xxx VALUES(10);

Dependency list

A function plpgsql_show_dependency_tb can show all functions, operators and relations used inside processed function:

postgres=# select * from plpgsql_show_dependency_tb('testfunc(int,float)');
┌──────────┬───────┬────────┬─────────┬────────────────────────────┐

└──────────┴───────┴────────┴─────────┴────────────────────────────┘
(4 rows)

Profiler

The plpgsql_check contains simple profiler of plpgsql functions and procedures. It can work with/without a access to shared memory. It depends on shared_preload_libraries config. When plpgsql_check was initialized by shared_preload_libraries, then it can allocate shared memory, and function's profiles are stored there. When plpgsql_check cannot to allocate shared momory, the profile is stored in session memory.

Due dependencies, shared_preload_libraries should to contains plpgsql first

postgres=# show shared_preload_libraries ;
┌──────────────────────────┐
│ shared_preload_libraries │
╞══════════════════════════╡
│ plpgsql,plpgsql_check    │
└──────────────────────────┘
(1 row)

The profiler is active when GUC plpgsql_check.profiler is on. The profiler doesn't require shared memory, but if there are not shared memory, then the profile is limmitted just to active session.

When plpgsql_check is initialized by shared_preload_libraries, another GUC is available to configure the amount of shared memory used by the profiler: plpgsql_check.profiler_max_shared_chunks. This defines the maximum number of statements chunk that can be stored in shared memory. For each plpgsql function (or procedure), the whole content is split into chunks of 30 statements. If needed, multiple chunks can be used to store the whole content of a single function. A single chunk is 1704 bytes. The default value for this GUC is 15000, which should be enough for big projects containing hundred of thousands of statements in plpgsql, and will consume about 24MB of memory. If your project doesn't require that much number of chunks, you can set this parameter to a smaller number in order to decrease the memory usage. The minimum value is 50 (which should consume about 83kB of memory), and the maximum value is 100000 (which should consume about 163MB of memory). Changing this parameter requires a PostgreSQL restart.

The profiler will also retrieve the query identifier for each instruction that contains an expression or optimizable statement. Note that this requires pg_stat_statements, or another similar third-party extension), to be installed. There are some limitations to the query identifier retrieval:

  • if a plpgsql expression contains underlying statements, only the top level query identifier will be retrieved
  • the profiler doesn't compute query identifier by itself but relies on external extension, such as pg_stat_statements, for that. It means that depending on the external extension behavior, you may not be able to see a query identifier for some statements. That's for instance the case with DDL statements, as pg_stat_statements doesn't expose the query identifier for such queries.
  • a query identifier is retrieved only for instructions containing expressions. This means that plpgsql_profiler_function_tb() function can report less query identifier than instructions on a single line.

Attention: A update of shared profiles can decrease performance on servers under higher load.

The profile can be displayed by function plpgsql_profiler_function_tb:

There are two functions for cleaning stored profiles: plpgsql_profiler_reset_all() and plpgsql_profiler_reset(regprocedure).

Coverage metrics

plpgsql_check provides two functions:

  • plpgsql_coverage_statements(name)
  • plpgsql_coverage_branches(name)

Note

There is another very good PLpgSQL profiler - https://bitbucket.org/openscg/plprofiler

My extension is designed to be simple for use and practical. Nothing more or less.

plprofiler is more complex. It build call graphs and from this graph it can creates flame graph of execution times.

Both extensions can be used together with buildin PostgreSQL's feature - tracking functions.

set track_functions to 'pl';
...
select * from pg_stat_user_functions;

Tracer

plpgsql_check provides a tracing possibility - in this mode you can see notices on start or end functions (terse and default verbosity) and start or end statements (verbose verbosity). For default and verbose verbosity the content of function arguments is displayed. The content of related variables are displayed when verbosity is verbose.

postgres=# do $$ begin perform fx(10,null, 'now', e'stěhule'); end; $$;
NOTICE:  #0 ->> start of inline_code_block (Oid=0)
NOTICE:  #2   ->> start of function fx(integer,integer,date,text) (Oid=16405)
NOTICE:  #2        call by inline_code_block line 1 at PERFORM
NOTICE:  #2       "a" => '10', "b" => null, "c" => '2020-08-03', "d" => 'stěhule'
NOTICE:  #4     ->> start of function fx(integer) (Oid=16404)
NOTICE:  #4          call by fx(integer,integer,date,text) line 1 at PERFORM
NOTICE:  #4         "a" => '10'
NOTICE:  #4     <<- end of function fx (elapsed time=0.098 ms)
NOTICE:  #2   <<- end of function fx (elapsed time=0.399 ms)
NOTICE:  #0 <<- end of block (elapsed time=0.754 ms)

The number after # is a execution frame counter (this number is related to deep of error context stack). It allows to pair start end and of function.

Tracing is enabled by setting plpgsql_check.tracer to on. Attention - enabling this behaviour has significant negative impact on performance (unlike the profiler). You can set a level for output used by tracer plpgsql_check.tracer_errlevel (default is notice). The output content is limited by length specified by plpgsql_check.tracer_variable_max_length configuration variable.

In terse verbose mode the output is reduced:

postgres=# set plpgsql_check.tracer_verbosity TO terse;
SET
postgres=# do $$ begin perform fx(10,null, 'now', e'stěhule'); end; $$;
NOTICE:  #0 start of inline code block (oid=0)
NOTICE:  #2 start of fx (oid=16405)
NOTICE:  #4 start of fx (oid=16404)
NOTICE:  #4 end of fx
NOTICE:  #2 end of fx
NOTICE:  #0 end of inline code block

In verbose mode the output is extended about statement details:

postgres=# do $$ begin perform fx(10,null, 'now', e'stěhule'); end; $$;
NOTICE:  #0            ->> start of block inline_code_block (oid=0)

Special feature of tracer is tracing of ASSERT statement when plpgsql_check.trace_assert is on. When plpgsql_check.trace_assert_verbosity is DEFAULT, then all function's or procedure's variables are displayed when assert expression is false. When this configuration is VERBOSE then all variables from all plpgsql frames are displayed. This behaviour is independent on plpgsql.check_asserts value. It can be used, although the assertions are disabled in plpgsql runtime.

postgres=# set plpgsql_check.tracer to off;
postgres=# set plpgsql_check.trace_assert_verbosity TO verbose;

postgres=# do $$ begin perform fx(10,null, 'now', e'stěhule'); end; $$;

Attention - SECURITY

Tracer prints content of variables or function arguments. For security definer function, this content can hold security sensitive data. This is reason why tracer is disabled by default and should be enabled only with super user rights plpgsql_check.enable_tracer.

Pragma

You can configure plpgsql_check behave inside checked function with "pragma" function. This is a analogy of PL/SQL or ADA language of PRAGMA feature. PLpgSQL doesn't support PRAGMA, but plpgsql_check detects function named plpgsql_check_pragma and get options from parameters of this function. These plpgsql_check options are valid to end of group of statements.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test()
RETURNS void AS $$
BEGIN
  ...
  -- for following statements disable check
  PERFORM plpgsql_check_pragma('disable:check');
  ...
  -- enable check again
  PERFORM plpgsql_check_pragma('enable:check');
  ...
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

The function plpgsql_check_pragma is immutable function that returns one. It is defined by plpgsql_check extension. You can declare alternative plpgsql_check_pragma function like:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION plpgsql_check_pragma(VARIADIC args[])
RETURNS int AS $$
SELECT 1
$$ LANGUAGE sql IMMUTABLE;

Using pragma function in declaration part of top block sets options on function level too.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test()
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE
  aux int := plpgsql_check_pragma('disable:extra_warnings');
  ...

Shorter syntax for pragma is supported too:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test()
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE r record;
BEGIN
  PERFORM 'PRAGMA:TYPE:r (a int, b int)';
  PERFORM 'PRAGMA:TABLE: x (like pg_class)';
  ...

Supported pragmas

echo:str - print string (for testing)

status:check,status:tracer, status:other_warnings, status:performance_warnings, status:extra_warnings,status:security_warnings

enable:check,enable:tracer, enable:other_warnings, enable:performance_warnings, enable:extra_warnings,enable:security_warnings

disable:check,disable:tracer, disable:other_warnings, disable:performance_warnings, disable:extra_warnings,disable:security_warnings

type:varname typename or type:varname (fieldname type, ...) - set type to variable of record type

table: name (column_name type, ...) or table: name (like tablename) - create ephereal table

Pragmas enable:tracer and disable:tracerare active for Postgres 12 and higher

Compilation on Ubuntu

Sometimes successful compilation can require libicu-dev package (PostgreSQL 10 and higher - when pg was compiled with ICU support)

sudo apt install libicu-dev

Compilation plpgsql_check on Windows

You can check precompiled dll libraries http://okbob.blogspot.cz/2015/02/plpgsqlcheck-is-available-for-microsoft.html

or compile by self:

  1. Download and install PostgreSQL for Win32 from http://www.enterprisedb.com
  2. Download and install Microsoft Visual C++ Express
  3. Lern tutorial http://blog.2ndquadrant.com/compiling-postgresql-extensions-visual-studio-windows
  4. Build plpgsql_check.dll
  5. Install plugin
  6. copy plpgsql_check.dll to PostgreSQL\14\lib
  7. copy plpgsql_check.control and plpgsql_check--2.1.sql to PostgreSQL\14\share\extension

Checked on

  • gcc on Linux (against all supported PostgreSQL)
  • clang 3.4 on Linux (against PostgreSQL 10)
  • for success regress tests the PostgreSQL 10 or higher is required

Compilation against PostgreSQL 10 requires libICU!

Plpgsql Check: Extension That Allows to Check Plpgsql Source Code.

plpgsql_check

I founded this project, because I wanted to publish the code I wrote in the last two years, when I tried to write enhanced checking for PostgreSQL upstream. It was not fully successful - integration into upstream requires some larger plpgsql refactoring - probably it will not be done in next years (now is Dec 2013). But written code is fully functional and can be used in production (and it is used in production). So, I created this extension to be available for all plpgsql developers.

If you like it and if you would to join to development of this extension, register yourself to postgresql extension hacking google group.

Features

  • check fields of referenced database objects and types inside embedded SQL
  • using correct types of function parameters
  • unused variables and function argumens, unmodified OUT argumens
  • partially detection of dead code (due RETURN command)
  • detection of missing RETURN command in function
  • try to identify unwanted hidden casts, that can be performance issue like unused indexes
  • possibility to collect relations and functions used by function
  • possibility to check EXECUTE stmt agaist SQL injection vulnerability

I invite any ideas, patches, bugreports.

plpgsql_check is next generation of plpgsql_lint. It allows to check source code by explicit call plpgsql_check_function.

PostgreSQL PostgreSQL 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 are supported.

The SQL statements inside PL/pgSQL functions are checked by validator for semantic errors. These errors can be found by plpgsql_check_function:

Active mode

postgres=# CREATE EXTENSION plpgsql_check;
LOAD
postgres=# CREATE TABLE t1(a int, b int);
CREATE TABLE

postgres=#
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.f1()
RETURNS void
LANGUAGE plpgsql
AS $function$
DECLARE r record;
BEGIN
  FOR r IN SELECT * FROM t1
  LOOP
    RAISE NOTICE '%', r.c; -- there is bug - table t1 missing "c" column
  END LOOP;
END;
$function$;

CREATE FUNCTION

postgres=# select f1(); -- execution doesn't find a bug due to empty table t1
  f1 
 ────

postgres=# \x
Expanded display is on.
postgres=# select * from plpgsql_check_function_tb('f1()');

postgres=# \sf+ f1
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.f1()

2       DECLARE r record;
3       BEGIN
4         FOR r IN SELECT * FROM t1
5         LOOP

7         END LOOP;
8       END;

Function plpgsql_check_function() has three possible formats: text, json or xml

Arguments

You can set level of warnings via function's parameters:

Mandatory arguments

  • function name or function signature - these functions requires function specification. Any function in PostgreSQL can be specified by Oid or by name or by signature. When you know oid or complete function's signature, you can use a regprocedure type parameter like 'fx()'::regprocedure or 16799::regprocedure. Possible alternative is using a name only, when function's name is unique - like 'fx'. When the name is not unique or the function doesn't exists it raises a error.

Optional arguments

relid DEFAULT 0 - oid of relation assigned with trigger function. It is necessary for check of any trigger function.

fatal_errors boolean DEFAULT true - stop on first error

other_warnings boolean DEFAULT true - show warnings like different attributes number in assignmenet on left and right side, variable overlaps function's parameter, unused variables, unwanted casting, ..

extra_warnings boolean DEFAULT true - show warnings like missing RETURN, shadowed variables, dead code, never read (unused) function's parameter, unmodified variables, modified auto variables, ..

performance_warnings boolean DEFAULT false - performance related warnings like declared type with type modificator, casting, implicit casts in where clause (can be reason why index is not used), ..

security_warnings boolean DEFAULT false - security related checks like SQL injection vulnerability detection

without_warnings DEFAULT false - disable all warnings

all_warnings DEFAULT false - enable all warnings

newtable DEFAULT NULL, oldtable DEFAULT NULL - the names of NEW or OLD transitive tables. These parameters are required when transitive tables are used.

Triggers

When you want to check any trigger, you have to enter a relation that will be used together with trigger function

CREATE TABLE bar(a int, b int);

postgres=# \sf+ foo_trg
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.foo_trg()
         RETURNS trigger
         LANGUAGE plpgsql
1       AS $function$
2       BEGIN
3         NEW.c := NEW.a + NEW.b;
4         RETURN NEW;
5       END;
6       $function$

Missing relation specification

postgres=# select * from plpgsql_check_function('foo_trg()');
ERROR:  missing trigger relation
HINT:  Trigger relation oid must be valid

Correct trigger checking (with specified relation)

postgres=# select * from plpgsql_check_function('foo_trg()', 'bar');
                 plpgsql_check_function                 
--------------------------------------------------------
 error:42703:3:assignment:record "new" has no field "c"
(1 row)

For triggers with transitive tables you can set a oldtable or newtable parameters:

create or replace function footab_trig_func()
returns trigger as $$
declare x int;
begin
  if false then
    -- should be ok;
    select count(*) from newtab into x; 

    -- should fail;
    select count(*) from newtab where d = 10 into x;
  end if;
  return null;
end;
$$ language plpgsql;

select * from plpgsql_check_function('footab_trig_func','footab', newtable := 'newtab');

Mass check

You can use the plpgsql_check_function for mass check functions and mass check triggers. Please, test following queries:

-- check all nontrigger plpgsql functions
SELECT p.oid, p.proname, plpgsql_check_function(p.oid)
   FROM pg_catalog.pg_namespace n
   JOIN pg_catalog.pg_proc p ON pronamespace = n.oid
   JOIN pg_catalog.pg_language l ON p.prolang = l.oid
  WHERE l.lanname = 'plpgsql' AND p.prorettype <> 2279;

or

SELECT p.proname, tgrelid::regclass, cf.*
   FROM pg_proc p
        JOIN pg_trigger t ON t.tgfoid = p.oid 
        JOIN pg_language l ON p.prolang = l.oid
        JOIN pg_namespace n ON p.pronamespace = n.oid,
        LATERAL plpgsql_check_function(p.oid, t.tgrelid) cf
  WHERE n.nspname = 'public' and l.lanname = 'plpgsql'

or

-- check all plpgsql functions (functions or trigger functions with defined triggers)
SELECT
    (pcf).functionid::regprocedure, (pcf).lineno, (pcf).statement,
    (pcf).sqlstate, (pcf).message, (pcf).detail, (pcf).hint, (pcf).level,
    (pcf)."position", (pcf).query, (pcf).context
FROM
(
    SELECT
        plpgsql_check_function_tb(pg_proc.oid, COALESCE(pg_trigger.tgrelid, 0)) AS pcf
    FROM pg_proc
    LEFT JOIN pg_trigger
        ON (pg_trigger.tgfoid = pg_proc.oid)
    WHERE
        prolang = (SELECT lang.oid FROM pg_language lang WHERE lang.lanname = 'plpgsql') AND
        pronamespace <> (SELECT nsp.oid FROM pg_namespace nsp WHERE nsp.nspname = 'pg_catalog') AND
        -- ignore unused triggers
        (pg_proc.prorettype <> (SELECT typ.oid FROM pg_type typ WHERE typ.typname = 'trigger') OR
         pg_trigger.tgfoid IS NOT NULL)
    OFFSET 0
) ss
ORDER BY (pcf).functionid::regprocedure::text, (pcf).lineno

Passive mode

Functions should be checked on start - plpgsql_check module must be loaded.

Configuration

plpgsql_check.mode = [ disabled | by_function | fresh_start | every_start ]
plpgsql_check.fatal_errors = [ yes | no ]

plpgsql_check.show_nonperformance_warnings = false
plpgsql_check.show_performance_warnings = false

Default mode is by_function, that means that the enhanced check is done only in active mode - by plpgsql_check_function. fresh_start means cold start.

You can enable passive mode by

load 'plpgsql'; -- 1.1 and higher doesn't need it
load 'plpgsql_check';
set plpgsql_check.mode = 'every_start';

SELECT fx(10); -- run functions - function is checked before runtime starts it

Limits

plpgsql_check should find almost all errors on really static code. When developer use some PLpgSQL's dynamic features like dynamic SQL or record data type, then false positives are possible. These should be rare - in well written code - and then the affected function should be redesigned or plpgsql_check should be disabled for this function.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f1()
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE r record;
BEGIN
  FOR r IN EXECUTE 'SELECT * FROM t1'
  LOOP
    RAISE NOTICE '%', r.c;
  END LOOP;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql SET plpgsql.enable_check TO false;

A usage of plpgsql_check adds a small overhead (in enabled passive mode) and you should use it only in develop or preprod environments.

Dynamic SQL

This module doesn't check queries that are assembled in runtime. It is not possible to identify results of dynamic queries - so plpgsql_check cannot to set correct type to record variables and cannot to check a dependent SQLs and expressions.

When type of record's variable is not know, you can assign it explicitly with pragma type:

DECLARE r record;
BEGIN
  EXECUTE format('SELECT * FROM %I', _tablename) INTO r;
  PERFORM plpgsql_check_pragma('type: r (id int, processed bool)');
  IF NOT r.processed THEN
    ...

Attention: The SQL injection check can detect only some SQL injection vulnerabilities. This tool cannot be used for security audit! Some issues should not be detected. This check can raise false alarms too - probably when variable is sanitized by other command or when value is of some compose type. 

Refcursors

plpgsql_check should not to detect structure of referenced cursors. A reference on cursor in PLpgSQL is implemented as name of global cursor. In check time, the name is not known (not in all possibilities), and global cursor doesn't exist. It is significant break for any static analyse. PLpgSQL cannot to set correct type for record variables and cannot to check a dependent SQLs and expressions. A solution is same like dynamic SQL. Don't use record variable as target when you use refcursor type or disable plpgsql_check for these functions.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION foo(refcur_var refcursor)
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE
  rec_var record;
BEGIN
  FETCH refcur_var INTO rec_var; -- this is STOP for plpgsql_check
  RAISE NOTICE '%', rec_var;     -- record rec_var is not assigned yet error

In this case a record type should not be used (use known rowtype instead):

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION foo(refcur_var refcursor)
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE
  rec_var some_rowtype;
BEGIN
  FETCH refcur_var INTO rec_var;
  RAISE NOTICE '%', rec_var;

Temporary tables

plpgsql_check cannot verify queries over temporary tables that are created in plpgsql's function runtime. For this use case it is necessary to create a fake temp table or disable plpgsql_check for this function.

In reality temp tables are stored in own (per user) schema with higher priority than persistent tables. So you can do (with following trick safetly):

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.disable_dml()
RETURNS trigger
LANGUAGE plpgsql AS $function$
BEGIN
  RAISE EXCEPTION SQLSTATE '42P01'
     USING message = format('this instance of %I table doesn''t allow any DML operation', TG_TABLE_NAME),
           hint = format('you should to run "CREATE TEMP TABLE %1$I(LIKE %1$I INCLUDING ALL);" statement',
                         TG_TABLE_NAME);
  RETURN NULL;
END;
$function$;

CREATE TABLE foo(a int, b int); -- doesn't hold data ever
CREATE TRIGGER foo_disable_dml
   BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE ON foo
   EXECUTE PROCEDURE disable_dml();

postgres=# INSERT INTO  foo VALUES(10,20);
ERROR:  this instance of foo table doesn't allow any DML operation
HINT:  you should to run "CREATE TEMP TABLE foo(LIKE foo INCLUDING ALL);" statement
postgres=# 

CREATE TABLE
postgres=# INSERT INTO  foo VALUES(10,20);
INSERT 0 1

This trick emulates GLOBAL TEMP tables partially and it allows a statical validation. Other possibility is using a [template foreign data wrapper] (https://github.com/okbob/template_fdw)

You can use pragma table and create ephemeral table:

BEGIN
   CREATE TEMP TABLE xxx(a int);
   PERFORM plpgsql_check_pragma('table: xxx(a int)');
   INSERT INTO xxx VALUES(10);

Dependency list

A function plpgsql_show_dependency_tb can show all functions, operators and relations used inside processed function:

postgres=# select * from plpgsql_show_dependency_tb('testfunc(int,float)');
┌──────────┬───────┬────────┬─────────┬────────────────────────────┐

└──────────┴───────┴────────┴─────────┴────────────────────────────┘
(4 rows)

Profiler

The plpgsql_check contains simple profiler of plpgsql functions and procedures. It can work with/without a access to shared memory. It depends on shared_preload_libraries config. When plpgsql_check was initialized by shared_preload_libraries, then it can allocate shared memory, and function's profiles are stored there. When plpgsql_check cannot to allocate shared momory, the profile is stored in session memory.

Due dependencies, shared_preload_libraries should to contains plpgsql first

postgres=# show shared_preload_libraries ;
┌──────────────────────────┐
│ shared_preload_libraries │
╞══════════════════════════╡
│ plpgsql,plpgsql_check    │
└──────────────────────────┘
(1 row)

The profiler is active when GUC plpgsql_check.profiler is on. The profiler doesn't require shared memory, but if there are not shared memory, then the profile is limmitted just to active session.

When plpgsql_check is initialized by shared_preload_libraries, another GUC is available to configure the amount of shared memory used by the profiler: plpgsql_check.profiler_max_shared_chunks. This defines the maximum number of statements chunk that can be stored in shared memory. For each plpgsql function (or procedure), the whole content is split into chunks of 30 statements. If needed, multiple chunks can be used to store the whole content of a single function. A single chunk is 1704 bytes. The default value for this GUC is 15000, which should be enough for big projects containing hundred of thousands of statements in plpgsql, and will consume about 24MB of memory. If your project doesn't require that much number of chunks, you can set this parameter to a smaller number in order to decrease the memory usage. The minimum value is 50 (which should consume about 83kB of memory), and the maximum value is 100000 (which should consume about 163MB of memory). Changing this parameter requires a PostgreSQL restart.

The profiler will also retrieve the query identifier for each instruction that contains an expression or optimizable statement. Note that this requires pg_stat_statements, or another similar third-party extension), to be installed. There are some limitations to the query identifier retrieval:

  • if a plpgsql expression contains underlying statements, only the top level query identifier will be retrieved
  • the profiler doesn't compute query identifier by itself but relies on external extension, such as pg_stat_statements, for that. It means that depending on the external extension behavior, you may not be able to see a query identifier for some statements. That's for instance the case with DDL statements, as pg_stat_statements doesn't expose the query identifier for such queries.
  • a query identifier is retrieved only for instructions containing expressions. This means that plpgsql_profiler_function_tb() function can report less query identifier than instructions on a single line.

Attention: A update of shared profiles can decrease performance on servers under higher load.

The profile can be displayed by function plpgsql_profiler_function_tb:

postgres=# select lineno, avg_time, source from plpgsql_profiler_function_tb('fx(int)');

There are two functions for cleaning stored profiles: plpgsql_profiler_reset_all() and plpgsql_profiler_reset(regprocedure).

Coverage metrics

plpgsql_check provides two functions:

  • plpgsql_coverage_statements(name)
  • plpgsql_coverage_branches(name)

Note

There is another very good PLpgSQL profiler - https://bitbucket.org/openscg/plprofiler

My extension is designed to be simple for use and practical. Nothing more or less.

plprofiler is more complex. It build call graphs and from this graph it can creates flame graph of execution times.

Both extensions can be used together with buildin PostgreSQL's feature - tracking functions.

set track_functions to 'pl';
...
select * from pg_stat_user_functions;

Tracer

plpgsql_check provides a tracing possibility - in this mode you can see notices on start or end functions (terse and default verbosity) and start or end statements (verbose verbosity). For default and verbose verbosity the content of function arguments is displayed. The content of related variables are displayed when verbosity is verbose.

postgres=# do $$ begin perform fx(10,null, 'now', e'stěhule'); end; $$;
NOTICE:  #0 ->> start of inline_code_block (Oid=0)
NOTICE:  #2   ->> start of function fx(integer,integer,date,text) (Oid=16405)
NOTICE:  #2        call by inline_code_block line 1 at PERFORM
NOTICE:  #2       "a" => '10', "b" => null, "c" => '2020-08-03', "d" => 'stěhule'
NOTICE:  #4     ->> start of function fx(integer) (Oid=16404)
NOTICE:  #4          call by fx(integer,integer,date,text) line 1 at PERFORM
NOTICE:  #4         "a" => '10'
NOTICE:  #4     <<- end of function fx (elapsed time=0.098 ms)
NOTICE:  #2   <<- end of function fx (elapsed time=0.399 ms)
NOTICE:  #0 <<- end of block (elapsed time=0.754 ms)

The number after # is a execution frame counter (this number is related to deep of error context stack). It allows to pair start end and of function.

Tracing is enabled by setting plpgsql_check.tracer to on. Attention - enabling this behaviour has significant negative impact on performance (unlike the profiler). You can set a level for output used by tracer plpgsql_check.tracer_errlevel (default is notice). The output content is limited by length specified by plpgsql_check.tracer_variable_max_length configuration variable.

In terse verbose mode the output is reduced:

postgres=# set plpgsql_check.tracer_verbosity TO terse;
SET
postgres=# do $$ begin perform fx(10,null, 'now', e'stěhule'); end; $$;
NOTICE:  #0 start of inline code block (oid=0)
NOTICE:  #2 start of fx (oid=16405)
NOTICE:  #4 start of fx (oid=16404)
NOTICE:  #4 end of fx
NOTICE:  #2 end of fx
NOTICE:  #0 end of inline code block

In verbose mode the output is extended about statement details:

postgres=# do $$ begin perform fx(10,null, 'now', e'stěhule'); end; $$;
NOTICE:  #0            ->> start of block inline_code_block (oid=0)

Special feature of tracer is tracing of ASSERT statement when plpgsql_check.trace_assert is on. When plpgsql_check.trace_assert_verbosity is DEFAULT, then all function's or procedure's variables are displayed when assert expression is false. When this configuration is VERBOSE then all variables from all plpgsql frames are displayed. This behaviour is independent on plpgsql.check_asserts value. It can be used, although the assertions are disabled in plpgsql runtime.

Attention - SECURITY

Tracer prints content of variables or function arguments. For security definer function, this content can hold security sensitive data. This is reason why tracer is disabled by default and should be enabled only with super user rights plpgsql_check.enable_tracer.

Pragma

You can configure plpgsql_check behave inside checked function with "pragma" function. This is a analogy of PL/SQL or ADA language of PRAGMA feature. PLpgSQL doesn't support PRAGMA, but plpgsql_check detects function named plpgsql_check_pragma and get options from parameters of this function. These plpgsql_check options are valid to end of group of statements.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test()
RETURNS void AS $$
BEGIN
  ...
  -- for following statements disable check
  PERFORM plpgsql_check_pragma('disable:check');
  ...
  -- enable check again
  PERFORM plpgsql_check_pragma('enable:check');
  ...

$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

The function plpgsql_check_pragma is immutable function that returns one. It is defined by plpgsql_check extension. You can declare alternative plpgsql_check_pragma function like:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION plpgsql_check_pragma(VARIADIC args[])
RETURNS int AS $$
SELECT 1
$$ LANGUAGE sql IMMUTABLE;

Using pragma function in declaration part of top block sets options on function level too.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test()
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE
  aux int := plpgsql_check_pragma('disable:extra_warnings');
  ...

Shorter syntax for pragma is supported too:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION test()
RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE r record;
BEGIN
  PERFORM 'PRAGMA:TYPE:r (a int, b int)';
  PERFORM 'PRAGMA:TABLE: x (like pg_class)';
  ...

Supported pragmas

echo:str - print string (for testing)

status:check,status:tracer, status:other_warnings, status:performance_warnings, status:extra_warnings,status:security_warnings

enable:check,enable:tracer, enable:other_warnings, enable:performance_warnings, enable:extra_warnings,enable:security_warnings

disable:check,disable:tracer, disable:other_warnings, disable:performance_warnings, disable:extra_warnings,disable:security_warnings

type:varname typename or type:varname (fieldname type, ...) - set type to variable of record type

table: name (column_name type, ...) or table: name (like tablename) - create ephereal table

Pragmas enable:tracer and disable:tracerare active for Postgres 12 and higher

A Pure PHP Implementation Of The MessagePack Serialization Format

msgpack.php

A pure PHP implementation of the MessagePack serialization format.

Features

Installation

The recommended way to install the library is through Composer:

composer require rybakit/msgpack

Usage

Packing

To pack values you can either use an instance of a Packer:

$packer = new Packer();
$packed = $packer->pack($value);

or call a static method on the MessagePack class:

$packed = MessagePack::pack($value);

In the examples above, the method pack automatically packs a value depending on its type. However, not all PHP types can be uniquely translated to MessagePack types. For example, the MessagePack format defines map and array types, which are represented by a single array type in PHP. By default, the packer will pack a PHP array as a MessagePack array if it has sequential numeric keys, starting from 0 and as a MessagePack map otherwise:

$mpArr1 = $packer->pack([1, 2]);               // MP array [1, 2]
$mpArr2 = $packer->pack([0 => 1, 1 => 2]);     // MP array [1, 2]
$mpMap1 = $packer->pack([0 => 1, 2 => 3]);     // MP map {0: 1, 2: 3}
$mpMap2 = $packer->pack([1 => 2, 2 => 3]);     // MP map {1: 2, 2: 3}
$mpMap3 = $packer->pack(['a' => 1, 'b' => 2]); // MP map {a: 1, b: 2}

However, sometimes you need to pack a sequential array as a MessagePack map. To do this, use the packMap method:

$mpMap = $packer->packMap([1, 2]); // {0: 1, 1: 2}

Here is a list of type-specific packing methods:

$packer->packNil();           // MP nil
$packer->packBool(true);      // MP bool
$packer->packInt(42);         // MP int
$packer->packFloat(M_PI);     // MP float (32 or 64)
$packer->packFloat32(M_PI);   // MP float 32
$packer->packFloat64(M_PI);   // MP float 64
$packer->packStr('foo');      // MP str
$packer->packBin("\x80");     // MP bin
$packer->packArray([1, 2]);   // MP array
$packer->packMap(['a' => 1]); // MP map
$packer->packExt(1, "\xaa");  // MP ext

Check the "Custom types" section below on how to pack custom types.

Packing options

The Packer object supports a number of bitmask-based options for fine-tuning the packing process (defaults are in bold):

NameDescription
FORCE_STRForces PHP strings to be packed as MessagePack UTF-8 strings
FORCE_BINForces PHP strings to be packed as MessagePack binary data
DETECT_STR_BINDetects MessagePack str/bin type automatically
  
FORCE_ARRForces PHP arrays to be packed as MessagePack arrays
FORCE_MAPForces PHP arrays to be packed as MessagePack maps
DETECT_ARR_MAPDetects MessagePack array/map type automatically
  
FORCE_FLOAT32Forces PHP floats to be packed as 32-bits MessagePack floats
FORCE_FLOAT64Forces PHP floats to be packed as 64-bits MessagePack floats

The type detection mode (DETECT_STR_BIN/DETECT_ARR_MAP) adds some overhead which can be noticed when you pack large (16- and 32-bit) arrays or strings. However, if you know the value type in advance (for example, you only work with UTF-8 strings or/and associative arrays), you can eliminate this overhead by forcing the packer to use the appropriate type, which will save it from running the auto-detection routine. Another option is to explicitly specify the value type. The library provides 2 auxiliary classes for this, Map and Bin. Check the "Custom types" section below for details.

Examples:

// detect str/bin type and pack PHP 64-bit floats (doubles) to MP 32-bit floats
$packer = new Packer(PackOptions::DETECT_STR_BIN | PackOptions::FORCE_FLOAT32);

// these will throw MessagePack\Exception\InvalidOptionException
$packer = new Packer(PackOptions::FORCE_STR | PackOptions::FORCE_BIN);
$packer = new Packer(PackOptions::FORCE_FLOAT32 | PackOptions::FORCE_FLOAT64);

Unpacking

To unpack data you can either use an instance of a BufferUnpacker:

$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker();

$unpacker->reset($packed);
$value = $unpacker->unpack();

or call a static method on the MessagePack class:

$value = MessagePack::unpack($packed);

If the packed data is received in chunks (e.g. when reading from a stream), use the tryUnpack method, which attempts to unpack data and returns an array of unpacked messages (if any) instead of throwing an InsufficientDataException:

while ($chunk = ...) {
    $unpacker->append($chunk);
    if ($messages = $unpacker->tryUnpack()) {
        return $messages;
    }
}

If you want to unpack from a specific position in a buffer, use seek:

$unpacker->seek(42); // set position equal to 42 bytes
$unpacker->seek(-8); // set position to 8 bytes before the end of the buffer

To skip bytes from the current position, use skip:

$unpacker->skip(10); // set position to 10 bytes ahead of the current position

To get the number of remaining (unread) bytes in the buffer:

$unreadBytesCount = $unpacker->getRemainingCount();

To check whether the buffer has unread data:

$hasUnreadBytes = $unpacker->hasRemaining();

If needed, you can remove already read data from the buffer by calling:

$releasedBytesCount = $unpacker->release();

With the read method you can read raw (packed) data:

$packedData = $unpacker->read(2); // read 2 bytes

Besides the above methods BufferUnpacker provides type-specific unpacking methods, namely:

$unpacker->unpackNil();   // PHP null
$unpacker->unpackBool();  // PHP bool
$unpacker->unpackInt();   // PHP int
$unpacker->unpackFloat(); // PHP float
$unpacker->unpackStr();   // PHP UTF-8 string
$unpacker->unpackBin();   // PHP binary string
$unpacker->unpackArray(); // PHP sequential array
$unpacker->unpackMap();   // PHP associative array
$unpacker->unpackExt();   // PHP MessagePack\Type\Ext object

Unpacking options

The BufferUnpacker object supports a number of bitmask-based options for fine-tuning the unpacking process (defaults are in bold):

NameDescription
BIGINT_AS_STRConverts overflowed integers to strings [1]
BIGINT_AS_GMPConverts overflowed integers to GMP objects [2]
BIGINT_AS_DECConverts overflowed integers to Decimal\Decimal objects [3]

1. The binary MessagePack format has unsigned 64-bit as its largest integer data type, but PHP does not support such integers, which means that an overflow can occur during unpacking.

2. Make sure the GMP extension is enabled.

3. Make sure the Decimal extension is enabled.

Examples:

$packedUint64 = "\xcf"."\xff\xff\xff\xff"."\xff\xff\xff\xff";

$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker($packedUint64);
var_dump($unpacker->unpack()); // string(20) "18446744073709551615"

$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker($packedUint64, UnpackOptions::BIGINT_AS_GMP);
var_dump($unpacker->unpack()); // object(GMP) {...}

$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker($packedUint64, UnpackOptions::BIGINT_AS_DEC);
var_dump($unpacker->unpack()); // object(Decimal\Decimal) {...}

Custom types

In addition to the basic types, the library provides functionality to serialize and deserialize arbitrary types. This can be done in several ways, depending on your use case. Let's take a look at them.

Type objects

If you need to serialize an instance of one of your classes into one of the basic MessagePack types, the best way to do this is to implement the CanBePacked interface in the class. A good example of such a class is the Map type class that comes with the library. This type is useful when you want to explicitly specify that a given PHP array should be packed as a MessagePack map without triggering an automatic type detection routine:

$packer = new Packer();

$packedMap = $packer->pack(new Map([1, 2, 3]));
$packedArray = $packer->pack([1, 2, 3]);

More type examples can be found in the src/Type directory.

Type transformers

As with type objects, type transformers are only responsible for serializing values. They should be used when you need to serialize a value that does not implement the CanBePacked interface. Examples of such values could be instances of built-in or third-party classes that you don't own, or non-objects such as resources.

A transformer class must implement the CanPack interface. To use a transformer, it must first be registered in the packer. Here is an example of how to serialize PHP streams into the MessagePack bin format type using one of the supplied transformers, StreamTransformer:

$packer = new Packer(null, [new StreamTransformer()]);

$packedBin = $packer->pack(fopen('/path/to/file', 'r+'));

More type transformer examples can be found in the src/TypeTransformer directory.

Extensions

In contrast to the cases described above, extensions are intended to handle extension types and are responsible for both serialization and deserialization of values (types).

An extension class must implement the Extension interface. To use an extension, it must first be registered in the packer and the unpacker.

The MessagePack specification divides extension types into two groups: predefined and application-specific. Currently, there is only one predefined type in the specification, Timestamp.

Timestamp

The Timestamp extension type is a predefined type. Support for this type in the library is done through the TimestampExtension class. This class is responsible for handling Timestamp objects, which represent the number of seconds and optional adjustment in nanoseconds:

$timestampExtension = new TimestampExtension();

$packer = new Packer();
$packer = $packer->extendWith($timestampExtension);

$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker();
$unpacker = $unpacker->extendWith($timestampExtension);

$packedTimestamp = $packer->pack(Timestamp::now());
$timestamp = $unpacker->reset($packedTimestamp)->unpack();

$seconds = $timestamp->getSeconds();
$nanoseconds = $timestamp->getNanoseconds();

When using the MessagePack class, the Timestamp extension is already registered:

$packedTimestamp = MessagePack::pack(Timestamp::now());
$timestamp = MessagePack::unpack($packedTimestamp);

Application-specific extensions

In addition, the format can be extended with your own types. For example, to make the built-in PHP DateTime objects first-class citizens in your code, you can create a corresponding extension, as shown in the example. Please note, that custom extensions have to be registered with a unique extension ID (an integer from 0 to 127).

More extension examples can be found in the examples/MessagePack directory.

To learn more about how extension types can be useful, check out this article.

Exceptions

If an error occurs during packing/unpacking, a PackingFailedException or an UnpackingFailedException will be thrown, respectively. In addition, an InsufficientDataException can be thrown during unpacking.

An InvalidOptionException will be thrown in case an invalid option (or a combination of mutually exclusive options) is used.

Tests

Run tests as follows:

vendor/bin/phpunit

Also, if you already have Docker installed, you can run the tests in a docker container. First, create a container:

./dockerfile.sh | docker build -t msgpack -

The command above will create a container named msgpack with PHP 8.1 runtime. You may change the default runtime by defining the PHP_IMAGE environment variable:

PHP_IMAGE='php:8.0-cli' ./dockerfile.sh | docker build -t msgpack -

See a list of various images here.

Then run the unit tests:

docker run --rm -v $PWD:/msgpack -w /msgpack msgpack

Fuzzing

To ensure that the unpacking works correctly with malformed/semi-malformed data, you can use a testing technique called Fuzzing. The library ships with a help file (target) for PHP-Fuzzer and can be used as follows:

php-fuzzer fuzz tests/fuzz_buffer_unpacker.php

Performance

To check performance, run:

php -n -dzend_extension=opcache.so \
-dpcre.jit=1 -dopcache.enable=1 -dopcache.enable_cli=1 \
tests/bench.php

You may change default benchmark settings by defining the following environment variables:

NameDefault
MP_BENCH_TARGETSpure_p,pure_u, see a list of available targets
MP_BENCH_ITERATIONS100_000
MP_BENCH_DURATIONnot set
MP_BENCH_ROUNDS3
MP_BENCH_TESTS-@slow, see a list of available tests

For example:

export MP_BENCH_TARGETS=pure_p
export MP_BENCH_ITERATIONS=1000000
export MP_BENCH_ROUNDS=5
# a comma separated list of test names
export MP_BENCH_TESTS='complex array, complex map'
# or a group name
# export MP_BENCH_TESTS='-@slow' // @pecl_comp
# or a regexp
# export MP_BENCH_TESTS='/complex (array|map)/'

Another example, benchmarking both the library and the PECL extension:

MP_BENCH_TARGETS=pure_p,pure_u,pecl_p,pecl_u \
php -n -dextension=msgpack.so -dzend_extension=opcache.so \
-dpcre.jit=1 -dopcache.enable=1 -dopcache.enable_cli=1 \
tests/bench.php

最高のCSSグリッドジェネレーターの比較

グリッド、グリッド、グリッド。それらを使ってできることはたくさんあります。しかし、覚えておかなければならない多くのプロパティ。😅

あなたが私のようで、グリッドを使用するときに常にGoogleに頼らなければならない場合、このガイドで説明するトリックは、開発者としてのあなたの生活をはるかに楽にします。

CSSグリッドジェネレーターとは何ですか?

グリッドジェネレーターは、数回クリックするだけでグリッドを生成するために使用できるWebサイトです。しかし、なぜあなたはそれらを気にする必要がありますか?私の場合、Webサイトのレイアウトや、インターフェイス内の複雑なレスポンシブ構造を設計するときに、これらを頻繁に使用します。グリッドは、わずか数行のCSSで多くのことを達成するのに役立ち、多くの時間を節約できるので素晴らしいです。

この記事では、次のCSSグリッドジェネレーターを比較し、それらの長所と短所を一覧表示して、お気に入りのものをブックマークできるようにします。

  • CSSグリッドジェネレーター
  • CSSレイアウトジェネレーター
  • グリッドLayoutIt
  • グリディ
  • Cssgr.id
  • AngryToolsCSSグリッド

また、時間を節約するために、覚えておく必要のある重要なCSSグリッドプロパティを使用してチートシートを作成しました。🥳このチートシートは、この記事の下部にあります。

1.CSSグリッドジェネレーター

CSSグリッドジェネレーターを最もよく使用するので、リストの最初に置きます。これはSarahDrasnerによって設計されたオープンソースプロジェクトです(プロジェクトのコードは、貢献したい場合はここから入手できます)。

例を挙げると、最近、2行3列の単純なグリッドを生成する必要がありました。行ギャップと列ギャップに特定のサイズを設定する方法を覚えていませんでした。CSS Grid Generatorを使用すると、必要な構造を簡単に作成して、より複雑なタスクに進むことができました。

.parent {表示:グリッド; grid-template-columns:repeat(3、1fr); grid-template-rows:repeat(2、1fr); grid-column-gap:60px; grid-row-gap:30px; }

最終的なグリッドは次のようになりました。

長所:

  • インターフェイスはユーザーフレンドリーで、色も適切に選択されているため、CSSグリッドジェネレーターはCSSグリッドに慣れたい初心者にとって優れたツールです。
  • CSSグリッドジェネレーターは、グリッド全体の列、行、およびギャップの数を指定できるため、ほとんどのユースケースで必要な結果を得るのに役立ちます。
  • ボタンを1つ押すだけで、コードをプレビューしてクリップボードにコピーできます

短所:

  • 時間を節約するために選択できるテンプレートはありません
  • 複雑なレイアウトを生成することはできません

2.CSSレイアウトジェネレーター

CSSレイアウトジェネレーターをリストの最初に置くこともできます。常に複雑なグリッドを生成する場合は、これをブックマークする必要があります。ブレードデザインシステムによって開発されたCSSレイアウトジェネレーターは、ほとんどの頭痛の種を解決する幅広いオプションを提供します。

私の日常業務では、CSSレイアウトジェネレーターテンプレートを頻繁に使用します。これは、サイドバー/コンテナーまたはヘッダー/メイン/フッターのある構造を便利に選択できるためです。

<section class="layout">
  <!-- The left sidebar where you can put your navigation items etc. -->
  <div class="sidebar">1</div>

  <!-- The main content of your website -->
  <div class="body">2</div>
</section>

<style>
.layout {
  width: 1366px;
  height: 768px;
  display: grid;
  /* This is the most important part where we define the size of our sidebar and body  */
  grid:
    "sidebar body" 1fr
    / auto 1fr;
  gap: 8px;
}

.sidebar {
  grid-area: sidebar;
}

.body {
  grid-area: body;
}
</style>

サイドバーオプションは次のようになります。

長所:

  • CSS Layout Generatorを使用すると、6つの標準テンプレートから選択してより早く開始できます
  • ほぼすべてのユースケースを解決するための多くのオプションがあります
  • グリッドとFlexboxを切り替えることができます。これは、両方のオプションを比較するのに役立ちます
  • インターフェースは素晴らしく、ユーザーフレンドリーです

短所:

  • それは非常に多くのオプションを提供するので、CSSレイアウトジェネレータは初心者にとって混乱する可能性があります

3.グリッドLayoutIt

グリッドレイアウトこれはLeniolabsによって開発されたもので、多くのオプションを備えたもう1つのグリッドジェネレーターです。貢献に興味がある場合は、コードをGitHubで公開しています。

先週、顧客から、製品に関する重要なメトリックを表示するためのインターフェイスを設計するように依頼されました(Geckoboardに多少似ています)。彼が望んでいたレイアウトは非常に正確でしたが、LayoutItのおかげで、数秒でコードを生成できました。

<div class="container">
  <div class="metric-1"></div>
  <div class="metric-2"></div>
  <div class="metrics-3"></div>
  <div class="metric-4"></div>
  <div class="metric-5"></div>
  <div class="metric-6"></div>
</div>

<style>
.container {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  grid-template-rows: 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  gap: 20px 20px;
  grid-auto-flow: row;
  grid-template-areas:
    "metric-1 metric-1 metric-2"
    "metrics-3 metric-4 metric-2"
    "metric-5 metric-5 metric-6";
}
.metric-1 {
  grid-area: metric-1;
}
.metric-2 {
  grid-area: metric-2;
}
.metrics-3 {
  grid-area: metrics-3;
}
.metric-4 {
  grid-area: metric-4;
}
.metric-5 {
  grid-area: metric-5;
}
.metric-6 {
  grid-area: metric-6;
}
</style>

結果のレイアウトは次のようになります。

長所:

  • グリッドレイアウト直感的に使用でき、多くのオプションを提供します
  • ピクセル(px)、フラクショナル(fr)、およびパーセンテージ(%)を使用して、列と行を設定できます。
  • レイアウトは、ワンクリックでCodePen、CodeSandbox、またはStackBlitzにエクスポートできます
  • インターフェースは適切に設計されており、オプションとグリッドプレビューの間に適切なコントラストがあります。
  • グリッドレイアウトグリッド配置オプションをサポート

短所:

  • このジェネレーターは、時間を節約するためのテンプレートを提供していません。これが、リストの3番目に配置した主な理由です。

4.グリディ

私の過去の経験では、Griddyを使用して多くの時間を費やしました。Sarah Drasnerによって作成されたCSSグリッドよりも使いやすさは少し劣りますが、より多くのオプションが提供されます。

たとえば、次の3行の4列グリッドを簡単に生成できます。

.container {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: 1fr 300px 1fr 1fr;
  grid-template-rows: 2fr 100px 1fr;
  grid-column-gap: 10px
  grid-row-gap: 20px
  justify-items: stretch
  align-items: stretch
}

結果のレイアウトは次のようになります。

長所:

  • ピクセル(px)、フラクショナル(fr)、およびパーセンテージ(%)を使用して、列と行を設定できます。
  • 提供されているオプションは、ほとんどのユースケースを解決し、さまざまな配置をテストするのに十分です。一言で言えば、それは仕事を成し遂げます

短所:

  • 好みの問題かもしれませんが、オプション付きのサイドバーは私にとって最適なインターフェイスではありません。探しているものを取得するには、しばらくスクロールする必要があります
  • 選択できるテンプレートはありません
  • minmax()機能はありません

5. Cssgr.id

Cssgr.idは、オプションが多すぎないが、ほとんどのユースケースを解決するのに十分なグリッドジェネレーターを探している場合のもう1つの優れた選択肢です。

ギャラリーテンプレートがあることを思い出したので、昨年Cssgr.idを使用してギャラリーを作成しました。数回クリックするだけで、必要なものに非常に近いものを得ることができました。

<div class="grid">
  <!-- This item will take 3 columns and 2 rows -->
  <div class="span-col-3 span-row-2">Item 1</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 2</div>
  <div class="span-row-2">Item 3</div>
  <div class="span-row-3">Item 4</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 5</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 6</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 7</div>

  <!-- This item will take 3 columns and 2 rows -->
  <div class="span-col-3 span-row-2">Item 8</div>

  <!-- This item will take 2 columns and 3 rows -->
  <div class="span-col-2 span-row-2">Item 9</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 10</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 11</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 12</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 13</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 14</div>
</div>

<style>
.grid {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(6, 1fr);
  grid-gap: 10px;
}

/* Items with this class will take 3 columns */
.span-col-3 {
  grid-column: span 3 / auto;
}

/* Items with this class will take 2 columns */
.span-col-2 {
  grid-column: span 2 / auto;
}

/* Items with this class will take 2 rows */
.span-row-2 {
  grid-row: span 2 / auto;
}

/* Items with this class will take 3 rows */
.span-row-3 {
  grid-row: span 3 / auto;
}
</style>

ギャラリーは次のようになりました。

長所:

  • Cssgr.idには、5つの実用的なスターターレイアウト(3×3、サッカーフォーメーション、ヘッダー/フッター、ギャラリー、および一般的なWebサイト)から選択できます。
  • プレースホルダーテキストを追加して、書かれたコンテンツでどのようにレンダリングされるかを確認できます
  • 簡単に設定できる適切に設計されたインターフェイスを備えています

短所:

  • ほとんどのオプションを備えたグリッドジェネレータではありません

6. AngryToolsCSSグリッド

Angry Tools CSSグリッドは、リストの最後のCSSグリッドジェネレーターです。このガイドで強調表示されている他のツールよりもユーザーフレンドリーではないかもしれませんが、便利な場合があります。

Angry Tools CSSグリッドは、ギャラリーを生成するときにも役立ちます。正方形をクリックすると、サイズと方向(水平または垂直)を定義できます。

<div class="angry-grid">
  <div id="item-0">Item 0</div>
  <div id="item-1">Item 1</div>
  <div id="item-2">Item 2</div>
  <div id="item-3">Item 3</div>
  <div id="item-4">Item 4</div>
  <div id="item-5">Item 5</div>
  <div id="item-6">Item 6</div>
  <div id="item-7">Item 7</div>
  <div id="item-8">Item 8</div>
  <div id="item-9">Item 9</div>
</div>

<style>
.angry-grid {
  display: grid;
  /* Our grid will be displayed using 3 rows */
  grid-template-rows: 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  /* Our grid will be displayed using 4 columns */
  grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  /* You can define a gap between your columns and your rows if you need to */
  gap: 0px;
  height: 100%;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 1 and column 4 and end at row 2 and column 5 */
#item-0 {
  background-color: #8bf7ba;
  grid-row-start: 1;
  grid-column-start: 4;
  grid-row-end: 2;
  grid-column-end: 5;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 2 and column 3 and end at row 3 and column 5 */
#item-1 {
  background-color: #bf9aa7;
  grid-row-start: 2;
  grid-column-start: 3;
  grid-row-end: 3;
  grid-column-end: 5;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 2 and column 2 and end at row 3 and column 3 */
#item-2 {
  background-color: #c7656e;
  grid-row-start: 2;
  grid-column-start: 2;
  grid-row-end: 3;
  grid-column-end: 3;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 1 and column 1 and end at row 2 and column 3 */
#item-3 {
  background-color: #b659df;
  grid-row-start: 1;
  grid-column-start: 1;
  grid-row-end: 2;
  grid-column-end: 3;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 3 and column 1 and end at row 4 and column 3 */
#item-4 {
  background-color: #be6b5e;
  grid-row-start: 3;
  grid-column-start: 1;
  grid-row-end: 4;
  grid-column-end: 3;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 3 and column 4 and end at row 4 and column 6 */
#item-5 {
  background-color: #5bb9d7;
  grid-row-start: 3;
  grid-column-start: 4;
  grid-row-end: 4;
  grid-column-end: 6;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 1 and column 5 and end at row 3 and column 6 */
#item-6 {
  background-color: #56adba;
  grid-row-start: 1;
  grid-column-start: 5;
  grid-row-end: 3;
  grid-column-end: 6;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 1 and column 3 and end at row 2 and column 4 */
#item-7 {
  background-color: #9cab58;
  grid-row-start: 1;
  grid-column-start: 3;
  grid-row-end: 2;
  grid-column-end: 4;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 3 and column 3 and end at row 4 and column 4 */
#item-8 {
  background-color: #8558ad;
  grid-row-start: 3;
  grid-column-start: 3;
  grid-row-end: 4;
  grid-column-end: 4;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 2 and column 1 and end at row 3 and column 2 */
#item-9 {
  background-color: #96b576;
  grid-row-start: 2;
  grid-column-start: 1;
  grid-row-end: 3;
  grid-column-end: 2;
}
</style>

結果のギャラリーは次のようになります。

長所:

  • Angry Tools CSS Gridには、選択可能ないくつかのテンプレートが付属しています

短所:

  • 全体的に最高のデザインではありません。正直なところ、それはかなり醜く、使いにくいことがあります
  • 初心者にはお勧めしません。上級開発者は、おそらく代わりにCSSLayoutGeneratorまたはGridLayoutItのいずれかを選択する必要があります
  • CSS出力を取得するにはスクロールする必要があります

ボーナス:CSSグリッドチートシート

CSSグリッドジェネレーターは、CSSプロパティに慣れていない場合に最適です。ただし、より高度な開発者になると、簡単なチートシートの方がおそらく便利な場合があります。

😇それがあなたを助けることができるなら、これが私が自分のために作ったものです:

gap行と列の間のギャップサイズを設定します。これは、次のプロパティの省略形ですrow-gapcolumn-gap
row-gapグリッド行間のギャップを指定します
column-gap列間のギャップを指定します

Comparing the best CSS grid generators

Grids, grids, grids. So many things we can do with them. But, so many properties we have to remember. 😅

If you are like me and you always have to resort to Google when using grids, the tricks we’ll cover in this guide will make your life as a developer much easier.

What are CSS grid generators?

A grid generator is a website you can use to generate a grid in a few clicks. But why should you care about them? In my case, I use them quite often when I want to design the layout of my websites or a complex responsive structure inside an interface. Grids are great because they help you achieve a lot with just a few CSS lines, which saves a lot of time.

In this article, we will compare the following CSS grid generators and list their pros and cons so that you can bookmark your favorite one:

  • CSS Grid Generator
  • CSS Layout Generator
  • Grid LayoutIt
  • Griddy
  • Cssgr.id
  • Angry Tools CSS Grid

Also, to save you time, I made a cheat sheet with the essential CSS grid properties you should remember. 🥳 This cheat sheet is available at the bottom of this article.

1. CSS Grid Generator

CSS Grid Generator

I put CSS Grid Generator first on my list because I use it the most. It is an open source project designed by Sarah Drasner (the code of the project is available here if you want to contribute).

To give you an example, I recently needed to generate a simple grid with two rows and three columns. I didn’t remember how to set a specific size for the row gap and the column gap. With CSS Grid Generator, I was able to easily create the structure I desired and move on to more complex tasks.

.parent {  display: grid;  grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr);  grid-template-rows: repeat(2, 1fr);  grid-column-gap: 60px;  grid-row-gap: 30px; }

The final grid looked like this:

Example Of CSS Grid Generator

Pros:

  • The interface is user-friendly and the colors are well-chosen, making CSS Grid Generator an excellent tool for beginners who want to become more familiar with CSS grids
  • CSS Grid Generator can help you get the result you want for most use cases because you can specify the number of columns, rows, and gaps across your grids
  • Just hit one button to preview the code and copy it to your clipboard

Cons:

  • There is no template you can choose to save you time
  • You will not be able to generate complicated layouts

2. CSS Layout Generator

CSS Layout Generator

I could have put CSS Layout Generator first on the list. If you are looking to generate complicated grids all the time, this is probably the one you should bookmark. Developed by Braid Design System, CSS Layout Generator offers a wide range of options that will solve most headaches.

In my daily work, I use CSS Layout Generator templates a lot because they conveniently allow you to choose between a structure with a sidebar/container or a header/main/footer.

<section class="layout">
  <!-- The left sidebar where you can put your navigation items etc. -->
  <div class="sidebar">1</div>

  <!-- The main content of your website -->
  <div class="body">2</div>
</section>

<style>
.layout {
  width: 1366px;
  height: 768px;
  display: grid;
  /* This is the most important part where we define the size of our sidebar and body  */
  grid:
    "sidebar body" 1fr
    / auto 1fr;
  gap: 8px;
}

.sidebar {
  grid-area: sidebar;
}

.body {
  grid-area: body;
}
</style>

The Sidebar option looks like this:

Example Of CSS Layout Generator

Pros:

  • CSS Layout Generator allows you to choose between six standard templates to get started faster
  • There are many options to solve nearly all use cases
  • You can switch between grids and Flexbox, which is helpful to compare both options
  • The interface is excellent and user-friendly

Cons:

  • Because it offers so many options, CSS Layout Generator can be confusing for a beginner

3. Grid LayoutIt

Grid LayoutIt

Grid LayoutIt was developed by Leniolabs and is another grid generator that comes with many options. The code is available publicly on GitHub if you are interested in contributing.

Last week, a customer asked me to design an interface to display important metrics about his product (somewhat similar to Geckoboard). The layout he wanted was very precise but, thanks to LayoutIt, I generated the code in a few seconds.

<div class="container">
  <div class="metric-1"></div>
  <div class="metric-2"></div>
  <div class="metrics-3"></div>
  <div class="metric-4"></div>
  <div class="metric-5"></div>
  <div class="metric-6"></div>
</div>

<style>
.container {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  grid-template-rows: 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  gap: 20px 20px;
  grid-auto-flow: row;
  grid-template-areas:
    "metric-1 metric-1 metric-2"
    "metrics-3 metric-4 metric-2"
    "metric-5 metric-5 metric-6";
}
.metric-1 {
  grid-area: metric-1;
}
.metric-2 {
  grid-area: metric-2;
}
.metrics-3 {
  grid-area: metrics-3;
}
.metric-4 {
  grid-area: metric-4;
}
.metric-5 {
  grid-area: metric-5;
}
.metric-6 {
  grid-area: metric-6;
}
</style>

The resulting layout looked like this:

Example Of Grid LayoutIt

Pros:

  • Grid LayoutIt is intuitive to use and it provides many options
  • You can set your columns and your rows using pixels (px), fractionals (fr), and percentages (%)
  • Your layouts can be exported to CodePen, CodeSandbox, or StackBlitz in one click
  • The interface is well-designed, with a proper contrast between the options and the grid preview
  • Grid LayoutIt supports grid placement options

Cons:

  • This generator does not provide templates to save you time, which is the main reason why I put it third on the list

4. Griddy

Griddy

In my past experience, I spent a lot of time using Griddy. It is a little less easy to use than the CSS grid made by Sarah Drasner, but it offers more options.

For example, it allows you to easily generate a four column grid with three rows:

.container {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: 1fr 300px 1fr 1fr;
  grid-template-rows: 2fr 100px 1fr;
  grid-column-gap: 10px
  grid-row-gap: 20px
  justify-items: stretch
  align-items: stretch
}

The resulting layout looks like this:

Example Of Griddy

Pros:

  • You can set your columns and your rows using pixels (px), fractionals (fr), and percentages (%)
  • The provided options are enough to solve most use cases and test different alignments. In a nutshell, it gets the job done

Cons:

  • It may be a question of taste, but the sidebar with the options is not the best interface for me. You have to scroll for a while to get what you are looking for
  • There are no templates to choose from
  • There is no minmax() function

5. Cssgr.id

CSS Grid

Cssgr.id is another great choice if you are looking for a grid generator that does not have too many options but enough to solve most use cases.

I used Cssgr.id last year to create a gallery because I remembered that it had a gallery template. In a few clicks, I was able to get something quite close to what I needed.

<div class="grid">
  <!-- This item will take 3 columns and 2 rows -->
  <div class="span-col-3 span-row-2">Item 1</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 2</div>
  <div class="span-row-2">Item 3</div>
  <div class="span-row-3">Item 4</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 5</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 6</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 7</div>

  <!-- This item will take 3 columns and 2 rows -->
  <div class="span-col-3 span-row-2">Item 8</div>

  <!-- This item will take 2 columns and 3 rows -->
  <div class="span-col-2 span-row-2">Item 9</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 10</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 11</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 12</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 13</div>

  <!-- This item will take 1 column and 1 row -->
  <div>Item 14</div>
</div>

<style>
.grid {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(6, 1fr);
  grid-gap: 10px;
}

/* Items with this class will take 3 columns */
.span-col-3 {
  grid-column: span 3 / auto;
}

/* Items with this class will take 2 columns */
.span-col-2 {
  grid-column: span 2 / auto;
}

/* Items with this class will take 2 rows */
.span-row-2 {

6. Angry Tools CSS Grid

Angry Tools CSS Grid

Angry Tools CSS Grid is the last CSS grid generator on our list. It can be handy, though probably less user-friendly than the other tools highlighted in this guide.

Angry Tools CSS Grid is also useful when generating galleries. By clicking on the squares, you can define their sizes and their directions (horizontally or vertically).

<div class="angry-grid">
  <div id="item-0">Item 0</div>
  <div id="item-1">Item 1</div>
  <div id="item-2">Item 2</div>
  <div id="item-3">Item 3</div>
  <div id="item-4">Item 4</div>
  <div id="item-5">Item 5</div>
  <div id="item-6">Item 6</div>
  <div id="item-7">Item 7</div>
  <div id="item-8">Item 8</div>
  <div id="item-9">Item 9</div>
</div>

<style>
.angry-grid {
  display: grid;
  /* Our grid will be displayed using 3 rows */
  grid-template-rows: 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  /* Our grid will be displayed using 4 columns */
  grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr 1fr 1fr;
  /* You can define a gap between your columns and your rows if you need to */
  gap: 0px;
  height: 100%;
}

/* This grid item will start at row 1 and column 4 and end at row 2 and column 5 */
#item-0 {

  grid-column-start: 1;
  grid-row-end: 3;
  grid-column-end: 2;
}
</style>

The resulting gallery looks like this:

Example Of Angry Tools

Pros:

  • Angry Tools CSS Grid comes with some templates you can choose from

Cons:

  • It does not have the best design overall. To be honest, it is quite ugly and can be hard to use
  • I would not recommend this tool for beginners. Advanced developers should also probably choose either CSS Layout Generator or Grid LayoutIt instead
  • You have to scroll to get the CSS outputs

BONUS: CSS grid cheat sheet

CSS grid generators are great when you are not familiar with CSS properties. But, as you become a more advanced developer, you may find that a quick cheat sheet is probably handier.

😇 If it can help you, here is the one I have made for myself:

gapSets the gap size between the rows and columns. It is a shorthand for the following properties: row-gap and column-gap
row-gapSpecifies the gap between the grid rows
column-gapSpecifies the gap between the columns
gridA shorthand property for: grid-template-rows, grid-template-columns, grid-template-areas, grid-auto-rows, grid-auto-columns, grid-auto-flow
grid-areaSpecifies a grid item’s size and location in a grid layout and is a shorthand property for the following properties: grid-row-start, grid-column-start, grid-row-end, grid-column-end
grid-auto-columnsSets the size for the columns in a grid container
grid-auto-flowControls how auto-placed items get inserted in the grid
grid-auto-rowsSets the size for the rows in a grid container
grid-columnSpecifies a grid item’s size and location in a grid layout and is a shorthand property for the following properties: grid-column-start, grid-column-end
grid-column-endDefines how many columns an item will span or on which column-line the item will end
grid-column-gapDefines the size of the gap between the columns in a grid layout
grid-column-startDefines on which column-line the item will start
grid-gapDefines the size of the gap between the rows and columns in a grid layout and is a shorthand property for the following properties: grid-row-gap, grid-column-gap
grid-rowSpecifies a grid item’s size and location in a grid layout and is a shorthand property for the following properties: grid-row-start, grid-row-end
grid-row-endDefines how many rows an item will span or on which row-line the item will end
grid-row-gapDefines the size of the gap between the rows in a grid layout
grid-row-startDefines on which row-line the item will start
grid-templateA shorthand property for the following properties: grid-template-rows, grid-template-columns, grid-template-areas
grid-template-areasSpecifies areas within the grid layout
grid-template-columnsSpecifies the number (and the widths) of columns in a grid layout
grid-template-rowsSpecifies the number (and the heights) of the rows in a grid layout

I hope this quick comparison of the best CSS grid generators helped you bookmark your favorite one.

Also, if I can give you a critical piece of advice when dealing with CSS grids: take your time. These generators are a great option because they can help you get the layouts you need step by step and avoid relying on a complicated solution.
