User description

Currently normalize_expression incorrectly rewrites parts of string literals such as mutating operators == or != and stripping numeric separators _. This change modifies the internal SQL AST compiler behavior so that string literals are faithfully preserved during SQL code generation without stripping arbitrary underscores inside strings. It includes tests to verify this logic on expressions like message == "user_1_000 == active !=".

CodeAnt-AI Description

Preserve string contents when generating SQL from expressions

What Changed

  • String values now retain underscores, comparison operators, and keywords exactly as entered
  • Comparison operators outside strings are still converted to valid SQL syntax
  • Numeric separators in expressions are normalized without altering text inside quoted values
  • Added coverage for strings containing numeric separators and operators

Impact

✅ Accurate string matching in generated SQL
✅ Fewer unexpected query results
✅ Reliable handling of quoted filter values

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Limit separator removal to numeric literals.

Line 197 removes the underscore in any token where it follows and precedes a digit. filter user1_000 == true compiles user1_000 as user1000. This changes an identifier before SQL generation.

Only remove the underscore when all prior token characters are digits. Add a regression test for an identifier with this pattern.

Proposed fix
             let is_numeric_separator = !word.is_empty()
-                && word.chars().last().unwrap().is_ascii_digit()
+                && word.chars().all(|character| character.is_ascii_digit())
                 && i + 1 < chars.len()
                 && chars[i + 1].is_ascii_digit();

Suggestion: Quote tracking closes a string at every quote character and does not account for escaped quotes. The parser preserves such expressions as raw strings, so an expression like message == 'it\\'s != active' exits quote mode at the escaped apostrophe and rewrites the != inside the literal to <>, corrupting the generated SQL value. Track escaped quote characters when scanning literals. [logic error]

Severity Level: Major ⚠️
- ❌ String literals containing escaped quotes are rewritten incorrectly.
- ⚠️ Filter queries with apostrophes may fail SQL execution.
- ⚠️ Literal comparisons can use corrupted string values.

Suggestion: The numeric-separator check only examines adjacent digits, not whether the buffered token is a numeric literal. An identifier such as foo_1_000 is therefore emitted as foo_1000, silently changing column resolution in filters, selections, derived expressions, and sorts. Restrict underscore removal to tokens that are actually numeric literals. [incorrect condition logic]

Severity Level: Major ⚠️
- ❌ Filters using identifiers such as `foo_1_000` resolve incorrectly.
- ⚠️ Select, derive, and sort expressions can reference altered column names.
- ⚠️ Queries may fail or return results from the wrong column.
