Fix BigQuery outer-wrap ORDER BY and dataset-scoped introspection - #313
Conversation
The DEV-1444 outer wrap stripped the ORDER BY qualifier with
`col.set("table", None)`. BigQuery still renders a qualifier slot for
such a column, so any query combining a computed measure with an
ORDER BY failed with `400 Syntax error: Invalid empty identifier`.
Replacing the node is not enough either: BigQuery parses a quoted
dotted alias into one part per segment, so the model prefix would be
dropped. `_outer_order_column` now keeps the longest part-suffix the
inner SELECT actually projects; other dialects are byte-identical.
Per-table introspection fell back to the bare
`information_schema.columns`, which BigQuery resolves at project level
— unreadable by a dataset-scoped service account, so every table 403'd
and drift reported the whole datasource for deletion. Qualify by
dataset, and treat an all-tables introspection failure as "unknown"
(`IntrospectionUnavailable`) instead of "everything was dropped".

- Around line 83-88: The INFORMATION_SCHEMA source construction in the
introspection flow must not interpolate dataset into raw SQL. Update the logic
around dataset/table_name parsing to build the dataset-qualified FROM expression
through the repository’s sqlglot AST utilities, preserving existing schema
handling, and add a regression test covering a hostile dataset value in this
BigQuery branch.
- Around line 80-88: Update the BigQuery handling in the introspection flow to
explicitly reject bare table names and correctly parse project.dataset.table
identifiers, rather than treating project.dataset as one dataset value;
construct a valid dataset- or region-qualified INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
reference with separately quoted project and dataset components. Add coverage
for bare, dataset-qualified, and project-qualified names.
In `@slayer/sql/dialects/base.py`:
- Around line 501-525: Update _outer_order_column and its caller to accept the
outer projection aliases via public, and select a candidate only when it is
present in public rather than by searching inner_sql. Preserve the existing
suffix-resolution behavior, and add a regression case covering a qualified
source column projected under a different alias.

🌐 Web query:
BigQuery INFORMATION_SCHEMA COLUMNS project dataset qualifier syntax project.dataset.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
💡 Result:
To query the BigQuery INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS view, you must use either a dataset qualifier or a region qualifier [1][2]. The syntax for these qualifiers, including the optional project ID, is as follows: 1. Dataset Qualifier Syntax The dataset qualifier restricts results to a specific dataset. Use this format: [PROJECT_ID.]DATASET_ID.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS [1][3] If you omit the PROJECT_ID, BigQuery defaults to the project in which the query is executing [2][4]. 2. Region Qualifier Syntax The region qualifier restricts results to a specific region within a project. Use this format: [PROJECT_ID.]region-REGION.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS [1][3] Key Considerations: - Project Qualifier: You can prepend the optional PROJECT_ID to both dataset and region qualifiers to query data across different projects [2][4]. - Permissions: When using a dataset qualifier, you need appropriate permissions for the dataset [1][3]. When using a region qualifier, you need permissions for the project [1][3]. - Location Matching: Queries against INFORMATION_SCHEMA views must match the location of the dataset or the regional qualifier used; otherwise, the query will fail [5]. Example: To query columns in a specific dataset across another project, use: SELECT * FROM my-project.my_dataset.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS; [1][6]

Handle unsupported BigQuery name shapes explicitly.
BigQuery requires a dataset or region-qualified INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS view. This code leaves bare names unqualified and treats project.dataset.table as the single dataset identifier project.dataset.
Reject unsupported shapes early, or quote project and dataset components separately. Add tests for bare, dataset-qualified, and project-qualified names.

- Build the BigQuery dataset-qualified FROM via a sqlglot AST so a hostile dataset name stays inside one quoted identifier (CodeRabbit). - `_outer_order_column` now resolves against the public alias list first and only falls back to scanning `inner_sql` for hidden ORDER BY hoists, so a qualified source column with a different projected alias resolves to the name the outer scope exposes. - Extract `_info_schema_columns_query` (Sonar S3776) and drop the `list()` around `find_all` in favour of `transform` (Sonar S7504). - Hoist function-local test imports.

…R BY + dataset introspection) Dialect/introspection-layer fix, orthogonal to the restructured planning pipeline: _outer_order_column + emit_outer_wrap, dataset-qualified _get_columns_fallback, and the IntrospectionUnavailable fail-closed guard all auto-merged. Two mechanical conflicts resolved: DECISIONS.md date-ordering, and tests/dialects/test_bigquery.py — the two pure-dialect emit_outer_wrap tests kept verbatim (they pin the fix), the enrich_query end-to-end test rewritten to the branch's _engine_generate dry-run (renders as a plain aggregate on DEV-1450, so it asserts no-empty-backtick + consistent orders___created_at mangling). Branch now fully caught up to origin/main. Gate: ruff clean, pytest -m 'not integration' 12661 passed / 98 skipped / 2 xfailed.

Fixes two BigQuery-only failures reported against 0.9.12.
1. Empty identifier in an outer-wrapped ORDER BY
emit_outer_wrapstripped the inner-CTE qualifier withcol.set("table", None). BigQuery still renders a qualifier slot for such a column, so any query needing the DEV-1444 outer wrap (i.e. any computed measure) plus an ORDER BY failed:Simply replacing the node — as the report suggested — trades that for a name-resolution error: BigQuery parses a quoted dotted alias (
`orders.created_at`) into one part per segment, so the model prefix gets dropped while the outer projection still carries it (mangled toorders___created_at).SqlDialect._outer_order_columnnow re-resolves the column to the longest part-suffix the inner SELECT actually projects, which covers both the bare dotted alias and the_base.-qualified form_assemble_combined_sqlemits. Postgres/DuckDB/MySQL output is byte-identical (verified by the existing goldens plus the new parametrised test).2. Introspection read the project-level INFORMATION_SCHEMA
_get_columns_fallbackqueried the bareinformation_schema.columns, which BigQuery resolves as<project>.information_schema.columns— a service account scoped to one dataset (the normal least-privilege setup) cannot read it, so every_introspect_one_tablecall 403'd, the live-table map came back empty, andvalidate_modelsreported aWholeModelDeletefor every model. It now qualifies by dataset (`<dataset>`.INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS), taken fromschemaor from the dotted table name.Hardening from the same report:
_live_schema_for_datasourceraisesIntrospectionUnavailablewhen every table failed instead of returning an empty map, since empty is indistinguishable from "everything was dropped" and--force-cleanwould act on that. The drift path skips its verdict; type refinement keeps the persisted types.Testing
