Automated diagnosis and prescriptions for slow Django ORM queries.

## The Problem

Django's ORM makes it easy to write code that generates hundreds of unnecessary database queries. The most common culprit is the **N+1 pattern**: iterating over a queryset and accessing a related field triggers a separate query for each row. Other silent performance killers include duplicate queries, missing database indexes, and unoptimized DRF serializers.

Tools like django-debug-toolbar can show you *what* queries ran, but they leave you to figure out the fix yourself.

## The Solution

**Query Doctor doesn't just detect problems — it prescribes the fix.** For every issue found, you get:

- The exact issue type and severity
- The file, line number, and function where it originated
- A concrete code fix you can copy-paste

</p>

## Quick Start

**Step 1:** Install the package

```bash
pip install django-query-doctor
```

**Step 2:** Add the middleware

```python
# settings.py
MIDDLEWARE = [
    # ... your other middleware ...
    "query_doctor.QueryDoctorMiddleware",
]
```

**Step 3:** Run your app and check stderr for prescriptions.

That's it. Zero config required.

## Example Output

```
============================================================
Query Doctor Report
Total queries: 53 | Time: 127.3ms | Issues: 3
============================================================

CRITICAL: N+1 detected: 47 queries for table "myapp_author" (field: author)
   Location: myapp/views.py:83 in get_queryset
   Code: books = Book.objects.all()
   Fix: Add .select_related('author') to your queryset
   Queries: 47 | Est. savings: ~89.0ms

WARNING: Duplicate query: 6 identical queries for table "myapp_publisher"
   Location: myapp/views.py:91 in get_context_data
   Fix: Assign the queryset result to a variable and reuse it
   Queries: 6 | Est. savings: ~4.2ms

INFO: Column "published_date" in WHERE clause has no index on table "myapp_book"
   Fix: Add db_index=True to the published_date field on Book
```

## What It Detects

| Issue Type | Severity | What It Finds | Example Fix |
|------------|----------|---------------|-------------|
| **N+1 Queries** | CRITICAL | Looping over a queryset and hitting a FK/M2M on each row | `Book.objects.select_related('author')` |
| **Duplicate Queries** | WARNING | The exact same SQL executed multiple times | Assign the result to a variable and reuse it |
| **Missing Indexes** | INFO | WHERE/ORDER BY columns without a database index | `db_index=True` on the field |
| **DRF Serializer N+1** | WARNING | Nested serializers without prefetching | `select_related()` / `prefetch_related()` on the view queryset |
| **Fat SELECT** | INFO | `SELECT *` when only a few columns are used | `.only('field1', 'field2')` or `.values('field1', 'field2')` |
| **QuerySet Evaluation** | WARNING | Full queryset evaluation patterns (e.g., `list()` on large tables) | `.iterator()`, `.exists()`, `.count()`, or slicing |
| **Query Complexity** | WARNING/CRITICAL | Queries with excessive JOINs, subqueries, OR chains, GROUP BY | Break into simpler queries, use `.select_related()` for 1-2 FKs and `.prefetch_related()` for the rest |

## Usage in Tests

Use the context manager to assert query behavior in pytest:

```python
from query_doctor import diagnose_queries

def test_book_list_no_nplusone():
    with diagnose_queries() as report:
        books = list(Book.objects.select_related("author").all())
        for book in books:
            _ = book.author.name

    assert report.issues == 0

def test_book_list_query_count():
    with diagnose_queries() as report:
        list(Book.objects.all())

    assert report.total_queries <= 5
```

Or use the `@query_budget` decorator to enforce limits:

```python
from query_doctor import query_budget

@query_budget(max_queries=10, max_time_ms=100)
def my_view(request):
    return render(request, "books.html", {"books": Book.objects.all()})
```

</p>

## Management Commands

### `check_queries` — Analyze a URL for query issues

```bash
# Console output (default)
python manage.py check_queries --url /api/books/

# JSON output for CI parsing
python manage.py check_queries --url /api/books/ --format json

# Fail CI if critical issues found
python manage.py check_queries --url /api/books/ --fail-on critical
```

### `query_budget` — Enforce query count limits

```bash
# Check that a code block stays within budget
python manage.py query_budget --max-queries 20 \
    --execute "from myapp.models import Book; list(Book.objects.select_related('author').all())"

# Also enforce time budget
python manage.py query_budget --max-queries 20 --max-time-ms 100 \
    --execute "from myapp.models import Book; list(Book.objects.all())"
```

### `fix_queries` — Auto-apply diagnosed fixes

```bash
# Preview fixes (dry-run, default)
python manage.py fix_queries --url /api/books/

# Apply fixes with backups
python manage.py fix_queries --url /api/books/ --apply

# Filter by issue type
python manage.py fix_queries --url /api/books/ --apply --issue-type nplusone

# Filter by file
python manage.py fix_queries --url /api/books/ --apply --file myapp/views.py
```

### `diagnose_project` — Full project health scan

```bash
# Scan entire project, generate HTML report
python manage.py diagnose_project

# Output to specific file
python manage.py diagnose_project --output health_report.html

# Only scan specific apps
python manage.py diagnose_project --apps myapp accounts

# JSON output for CI
python manage.py diagnose_project --format json

# Exclude URL patterns
python manage.py diagnose_project --exclude-urls /admin/ /health/
```

Generates a standalone HTML report with:
- Per-app health scores (0-100)
- Sortable app scoreboard
- Per-URL query breakdown with prescriptions
- Executive summary with critical issue highlights

Run before each release to catch query regressions across your entire project.

</p>

## Celery Task Support

Diagnose queries inside Celery tasks (or any callable) with `@diagnose_task`:

```python
from celery import shared_task
from query_doctor.celery_integration import diagnose_task

@shared_task
@diagnose_task
def send_weekly_report():
    users = User.objects.all()
    for user in users:
        user.profile.email  # N+1 detected and reported

# With a callback:
@shared_task
@diagnose_task(on_report=lambda r: logger.info(f"Issues: {len(r.prescriptions)}"))
def process_orders():
    ...
```

Celery is **not** a required dependency. If not installed, the decorator works as a plain wrapper.

## Async View Support

The middleware is fully async-compatible. It automatically detects whether your Django app uses async views and routes accordingly:

```python
# settings.py — same middleware, no extra config needed
MIDDLEWARE = [
    "query_doctor.QueryDoctorMiddleware",
]

# Works with both sync and async views
async def my_async_view(request):
    books = await sync_to_async(list)(Book.objects.select_related("author").all())
    return JsonResponse({"count": len(books)})
```

## Custom Analyzer Plugins

Third-party packages can register custom analyzers via Python entry points:

```toml
# In your package's pyproject.toml
[project.entry-points."query_doctor.analyzers"]
my_analyzer = "my_package.analyzers:MyCustomAnalyzer"
```

```python
from query_doctor.analyzers.base import BaseAnalyzer, Prescription

class MyCustomAnalyzer(BaseAnalyzer):
    name = "my_analyzer"

    def analyze(self, queries):
        prescriptions = []
        # Your detection logic here
        return prescriptions
```

Use `discover_analyzers()` to load all built-in and third-party analyzers:

```python
from query_doctor.plugin_api import discover_analyzers

analyzers = discover_analyzers()  # Built-in + registered plugins
```

## OpenTelemetry Export

Send diagnosis results as OpenTelemetry spans and events:

```python
QUERY_DOCTOR = {
    "REPORTERS": ["console", "otel"],
}
```

Each request creates a span with query count, timing, and issue attributes. Individual prescriptions are added as span events. Requires `opentelemetry-api` and `opentelemetry-sdk` (optional dependencies).

```bash
pip install django-query-doctor[otel]
```

## Auto-Fix Mode

Query Doctor can automatically apply fixes to your source code:

```bash
# Preview fixes as a diff (default — safe, changes nothing)
python manage.py fix_queries --url /api/books/

# Apply fixes to source files (creates .bak backups)
python manage.py fix_queries --url /api/books/ --apply

# Only fix specific issue types
python manage.py fix_queries --url /api/books/ --apply --issue-type nplusone fat_select

# Only fix specific files
python manage.py fix_queries --url /api/books/ --apply --file myapp/views.py

# Skip backups (not recommended)
python manage.py fix_queries --url /api/books/ --apply --no-backup
```

By default, `fix_queries` runs in **dry-run mode** — it shows you the proposed diff without modifying any files. Pass `--apply` to write changes. Backup files (`.bak`) are created automatically.

**Safety guarantees:**
- Dry-run is the default — you must explicitly opt in to changes
- Backup files created before any modification
- Never modifies files outside your Django project directory
- Skips ambiguous fixes with a warning rather than guessing

## Admin Dashboard

A built-in dashboard for viewing recent query diagnosis reports:

```python
# settings.py — enable the dashboard
QUERY_DOCTOR = {
    "ADMIN_DASHBOARD": {
        "enabled": True,
        "max_reports": 50,
    },
}
```

```python
# urls.py — add the dashboard URL
from django.urls import include

urlpatterns = [
    path("admin/query-doctor/", include("query_doctor.urls")),
    # ...
]
```

The dashboard shows recent requests with query counts, timing, and prescriptions. It requires Django staff access (`is_staff=True`) and stores reports in an in-memory ring buffer — no database tables or migrations required.

## .queryignore

Suppress known false positives with a `.queryignore` file in your project root:

```
# .queryignore — Patterns to exclude from analysis

# Ignore queries matching SQL patterns
sql:SELECT * FROM django_session%

# Ignore queries originating from specific files
file:myapp/migrations/*
file:myapp/management/commands/seed_data.py

# Ignore specific callsites
callsite:myapp/views.py:142

# Ignore specific issue types for specific paths
ignore:nplusone:myapp/views.py:LegacyReportView
```

Lines starting with `#` are comments. The file is automatically detected at your project root, or set a custom path:

```python
QUERY_DOCTOR = {
    "QUERYIGNORE_PATH": "/path/to/.queryignore",
}
```

## Diff-Aware CI

Only analyze files changed in your branch — ideal for large codebases:

```bash
# Only report issues in files changed vs main
python manage.py check_queries --url /api/books/ --diff=main

# Compare against a specific commit
python manage.py check_queries --url /api/books/ --diff=abc123

# Compare against another branch
python manage.py check_queries --url /api/books/ --diff=origin/develop
```

If `git` is not available or the ref is invalid, all prescriptions are included (safe fallback).

## Pytest Plugin

Use the built-in pytest plugin for query assertions in your test suite:

```python
def test_optimized_view(query_doctor):
    books = list(Book.objects.select_related("author").all())
    for book in books:
        _ = book.author.name

    assert query_doctor.issues == 0
    assert query_doctor.total_queries <= 10
```

The plugin is automatically registered when you install `django-query-doctor`.
