Keep string constants, function bodies and comments intact - #64
Conversation
SELECT js FROM (VALUES ('[{"a":"1"},
{"b":"2"}]')) foo(js)
In river style the second line of that literal gained a space on every
pass; mozilla added four. Layout code indents formatted text line by line
at thirteen sites, and a line that continues a multi-line literal was
indented with the rest, changing the literal's value.
lexical::restore_literals() now runs once over each formatted statement
and puts back the original spelling of any single-quoted constant or
quoted identifier that differs from a source one only in whitespace.
Matching is by content, so it holds when the formatter reorders clauses,
and a literal changed beyond whitespace is left alone. Dollar-quoted
bodies are excluded; their re-indentation is deliberate and is handled
where the body is rendered.
The idempotency test's exclusion for this statement, in place since #56,
is removed.

reindent_body() stripped the common indentation of every dollar-quoted function body and added one space, whatever the language: - PL/Python and PL/Perl code was edited by a formatter that does not parse it; in Python, indentation is syntax. - A multi-line string constant inside a PL/pgSQL body was shifted with the lines around it, so a function that builds SQL text built different text. - An unterminated string made the edges of a one-line body part of it. A body is now re-laid out only when its language is SQL or PL/pgSQL, where whitespace outside strings means nothing, and lexical::layout_is_safe() finds no string or quoted identifier spanning a line. Anything else is emitted exactly as written. Ordinary PL/pgSQL keeps the existing layout, so the pgfmt fixtures are unchanged. The guard's tokenizer now tokenizes a dollar-quoted body between its delimiters, so quotes inside a body stay inside it. That replaces the split_dollar_delimiters() workaround, which handled one symptom of the same problem.

The formatters render the node kinds they know and never see comments,
so every comment inside a statement was dropped. Worse, a comment inside
a comma-separated list came back from flatten_list as a list element:
SELECT a, -- first
b, c
-> river: SELECT a,\n ,\n b, ... (stray comma)
-> pg_dump: SELECT a,\n -- first,\n b, ... (comma commented out)
Both outputs are invalid SQL.
flatten_list() now skips comments. CREATE TABLE, which attaches them to
the column they follow, uses flatten_list_keeping_comments() and is
unchanged.
After a statement is formatted, Formatter::restore_comments() puts each
lost comment back at the end of the output line holding the token it
followed in the source, found by counting that token's occurrences; words
compare case-insensitively. When the formatter rewrote that token, there
is nowhere to put the comment, and the statement is emitted as written
with only its whitespace collapsed: losing the formatting is better than
losing the comment. A comment a passthrough path already kept is left
alone.
create_table_comment_boundaries.expected recorded the loss of a comment
between `)` and WITH; it now expects `) -- storage options below`.
Closes #62. The documentation corpus now formats with no content loss in
any style, so known_token_loss.txt is empty.

SELECT a FROM t WHERE x IN -- note
(SELECT 1)
-> ... WHERE x IN -- note (SELECT 1)
The comment is a child of the a_expr, and format_expr rendered it through
its text fallback, joined to the next part with a space, so the subquery
became part of the comment. pg_dump style was fixed for this in #59; the
other seven styles were not.
format_expr now renders a comment as nothing, the join drops the empty
part, and restore_comments puts the comment at the end of the line.
That can place a comment after the statement's `;`, which on the next
pass parses as a comment between statements and moved to a paragraph of
its own. A comment on the same source line as the end of a statement now
stays on that line, so `SELECT 1; -- why` keeps its layout and the output
is stable.
Closes #63.

restore_literals read the source from its start once per literal, and matched each output literal with a linear search and Vec::remove. A 20,000-row INSERT took 0.87s in river style against 0.18s on main; it now takes 0.23s. - Collect the source characters once. Queue original indices by exact text and by whitespace-free key, and mark claimed ones. The exact-match-first order does not change. - restore_comments counted a comment as present when its text occurred anywhere in the output, so "-- x" inside "-- x y" or inside the constant '-- x' stopped the real comment from being restored. Count only comment spans that scan finds and whose text is equal.

Layout indents the continuation lines of a multi-line literal. It can indent one until it is equal to a different literal as written, for example 'p\nq' inside a subquery becoming 'p\n q'. The exact-text pass then gave the indented literal that other spelling, and the other literal got 'p\nq': the two values swapped. A search found this in all seven styles, in SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT and CASE, with no reordering. - Group originals and output literals by whitespace-free key. The n-th output literal in a group takes the n-th original in it, because the formatter keeps literals in source order. - Layout only adds whitespace, so a group whose output texts equal its originals as a multiset is unchanged, only perhaps reordered. Leave it as it is. This keeps the case the exact-text pass was for. - A clause reorder together with layout in the same group can still pair literals wrongly (HEAD does too). The doc comment says so; fixing it needs source positions from every renderer.

@coderabbitai Re the outside-diff finding "Preserve source identity for whitespace-equivalent literals" ( Confirmed first. A search found the swap in all seven styles, with no clause reordering. Example: The fix:
Not done: full AST provenance. One case is left: a statement where the formatter reorders clauses (CREATE TABLE constraints) and layout also changes one of the literals in that group. The previous code pairs these wrongly too. To fix it, every renderer would have to carry each literal's source position. That is a large change for this edge case, so the doc comment now states the limit. |

When the formatter drops or rewrites a literal, its key group has fewer
output literals than originals. Pairing by position then shifted the
rest: restore_literals("f('a b', 'ab')", "f(x, 'ab')") gave 'a b'.
- Leave a group as it is when the two counts differ.
- Add that case to the unit test.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick winPreserve literal identity through River table rendering.
River discards each element's source node when it builds
pk_elements,col_elements, andconstraint_elements. It then applies indentation and reorders the resulting strings before the statement-levelrestore_literalscall. Equal-count groups can therefore pair distinct multiline literals by rendered position and exchange a columnDEFAULTwith a tableCHECKvalue.Carry each element's source node through
all_items. After applying River indentation, restore that rendered element with its own source before adding it torendered. The final statement restoration will then see the same literal multiset and will not remap the values. The unequal-count guard does not address this case because equal counts still enter the branch.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

River-style CREATE TABLE renders primary keys, then columns, then table
constraints, so elements can leave source order. restore_literals() pairs
literals that differ only in whitespace by order within a group, so once
layout had re-indented one of two such literals, the reorder swapped them:
CREATE TABLE t (CONSTRAINT c CHECK (b <> 'p\n q'), b text DEFAULT 'p\nq')
gave the DEFAULT the CHECK's value and the reverse. Each river element now
keeps its source text and restores its own literals before it joins the
output, and restore_literals() documents that a reordering renderer must
do this.
