1.33.0

UUID v7

Added support for UUID v7.

from piccolo.columns.defaults.uuid import UUID7

class MyTable(Table):
    my_column = UUID(default=UUID7())

This provides superior insert performance and easier indexing compared to UUID v4.

Requires Python 3.14, and Postgres 18 (otherwise extensions are needed).

Coalesce

Added the Coalesce function - which lets you specify a fall back if a null value is found.

For example:

>>> await Album.select(
...     Coalesce(Album.release_date, datetime.date(2050, 1, 1))
... )

Or you can use this abbreviated syntax:

>>> await Album.select(
...     Album.release_date | datetime.date(2050, 1, 1)
... )
