materialize

Turns a constant into a full column containing a single value. Full columns and constants are represented differently in memory. Functions usually execute different code for normal and constant arguments, although the result should typically be the same. This function can be used to debug this behavior.

Syntax

materialize(x)

ignore

Accepts any arguments, including NULL and does nothing. Always returns 0. The argument is internally still evaluated. Useful e.g. for benchmarks.

Syntax

ignore(x)

sleep

Used to introduce a delay or pause in the execution of a query. It is primarily used for testing and debugging purposes.

Syntax

sleep(seconds)

Arguments

seconds: UInt* or Float The number of seconds to pause the query execution to a maximum of 3 seconds. It can be a floating-point value to specify fractional seconds.

Returned value

This function does not return any value.

Example

SELECT sleep(2);

This function does not return any value. However, if you run the function with clickhouse client you will see something similar to:

SELECT sleep(2)

Query id: 8aa9943e-a686-45e1-8317-6e8e3a5596ac

┌─sleep(2)─┐
│        0 │
└──────────┘

1 row in set. Elapsed: 2.012 sec.

This query will pause for 2 seconds before completing. During this time, no results will be returned, and the query will appear to be hanging or unresponsive.

Implementation details

The sleep() function is generally not used in production environments, as it can negatively impact query performance and system responsiveness. However, it can be useful in the following scenarios:

Testing: When testing or benchmarking ClickHouse, you may want to simulate delays or introduce pauses to observe how the system behaves under certain conditions.
Debugging: If you need to examine the state of the system or the execution of a query at a specific point in time, you can use sleep() to introduce a pause, allowing you to inspect or collect relevant information.
Simulation: In some cases, you may want to simulate real-world scenarios where delays or pauses occur, such as network latency or external system dependencies.

It's important to use the sleep() function judiciously and only when necessary, as it can potentially impact the overall performance and responsiveness of your ClickHouse system.

sleepEachRow

Pauses the execution of a query for a specified number of seconds for each row in the result set.

Syntax

sleepEachRow(seconds)

Arguments

seconds: UInt* or Float* The number of seconds to pause the query execution for each row in the result set to a maximum of 3 seconds. It can be a floating-point value to specify fractional seconds.

Returned value

This function returns the same input values as it receives, without modifying them.

Example

SELECT number, sleepEachRow(0.5) FROM system.numbers LIMIT 5;

┌─number─┬─sleepEachRow(0.5)─┐
│      0 │                 0 │
│      1 │                 0 │

│      3 │                 0 │
│      4 │                 0 │
└────────┴───────────────────┘

But the output will be delayed, with a 0.5-second pause between each row.

The sleepEachRow() function is primarily used for testing and debugging purposes, similar to the sleep() function. It allows you to simulate delays or introduce pauses in the processing of each row, which can be useful in scenarios such as:

Testing: When testing or benchmarking ClickHouse's performance under specific conditions, you can use sleepEachRow() to simulate delays or introduce pauses for each row processed.
Debugging: If you need to examine the state of the system or the execution of a query for each row processed, you can use sleepEachRow() to introduce pauses, allowing you to inspect or collect relevant information.
Simulation: In some cases, you may want to simulate real-world scenarios where delays or pauses occur for each row processed, such as when dealing with external systems or network latencies.

Like the sleep() function, it's important to use sleepEachRow() judiciously and only when necessary, as it can significantly impact the overall performance and responsiveness of your ClickHouse system, especially when dealing with large result sets.

currentDatabase

Returns the name of the current database. Useful in table engine parameters of CREATE TABLE queries where you need to specify the database.

Syntax

currentDatabase()

currentUser

Returns the name of the current user. In case of a distributed query, the name of the user who initiated the query is returned.

Syntax

currentUser()

Aliases: user(), USER(), current_user(). Aliases are case insensitive.

Returned values

The name of the current user. String.
In distributed queries, the login of the user who initiated the query. String.

Example

SELECT currentUser();

Result:

┌─currentUser()─┐
│ default       │
└───────────────┘

isConstant

transform

Transforms a value according to the explicitly defined mapping of some elements to other ones. There are two variations of this function:

transform(x, array_from, array_to, default)

x – What to transform.

array_from – Constant array of values to convert.

array_to – Constant array of values to convert the values in ‘from’ to.

default – Which value to use if ‘x’ is not equal to any of the values in ‘from’.

array_from and array_to must have equally many elements.

Signature:

For x equal to one of the elements in array_from, the function returns the corresponding element in array_to, i.e. the one at the same array index. Otherwise, it returns default. If multiple matching elements exist array_from, it returns the element corresponding to the first of them.

transform(T, Array(T), Array(U), U) -> U

T and U can be numeric, string, or Date or DateTime types. The same letter (T or U) means that types must be mutually compatible and not necessarily equal. For example, the first argument could have type Int64, while the second argument could have type Array(UInt16).

Example:

SELECT
    transform(SearchEngineID, [2, 3], ['Yandex', 'Google'], 'Other') AS title,
    count() AS c
FROM test.hits
WHERE SearchEngineID != 0
GROUP BY title
ORDER BY c DESC

transform(x, array_from, array_to)

Similar to the other variation but has no ‘default’ argument. In case no match can be found, x is returned.

Example:

SELECT
    transform(domain(Referer), ['yandex.ru', 'google.ru', 'vkontakte.ru'], ['www.yandex', 'example.com', 'vk.com']) AS s,
    count() AS c
FROM test.hits

neighbor

The window function that provides access to a row at a specified offset before or after the current row of a given column.

Syntax

neighbor(column, offset[, default_value])

The result of the function depends on the affected data blocks and the order of data in the block.

note

Only returns neighbor inside the currently processed data block. Because of this error-prone behavior the function is DEPRECATED, please use proper window functions instead.

The order of rows during calculation of neighbor() can differ from the order of rows returned to the user. To prevent that you can create a subquery with ORDER BY and call the function from outside the subquery.

Arguments

column — A column name or scalar expression.
offset — The number of rows to look before or ahead of the current row in column. Int64.
default_value — Optional. The returned value if offset is beyond the block boundaries. Type of data blocks affected.

Returned values

Value of column with offset distance from current row, if offset is not outside the block boundaries.
The default value of column or default_value (if given), if offset is outside the block boundaries.

note

The return type will be that of the data blocks affected or the default value type.

runningDifferenceStartingWithFirstValue

note

This function is DEPRECATED (see the note for runningDifference).

Same as runningDifference, but returns the value of the first row as the value on the first row.

runningConcurrency

Calculates the number of concurrent events. Each event has a start time and an end time. The start time is included in the event, while the end time is excluded. Columns with a start time and an end time must be of the same data type. The function calculates the total number of active (concurrent) events for each event start time.

tip

Events must be ordered by the start time in ascending order. If this requirement is violated the function raises an exception. Every data block is processed separately. If events from different data blocks overlap then they can not be processed correctly.

Syntax

runningConcurrency(start, end)

Arguments

start — A column with the start time of events. Date, DateTime, or DateTime64.
end — A column with the end time of events. Date, DateTime, or DateTime64.

Returned values

The number of concurrent events at each event start time. UInt32

Example

indexHint

This function is intended for debugging and introspection. It ignores its argument and always returns 1. The arguments are not evaluated.

But during index analysis, the argument of this function is assumed to be not wrapped in indexHint. This allows to select data in index ranges by the corresponding condition but without further filtering by this condition. The index in ClickHouse is sparse and using indexHint will yield more data than specifying the same condition directly.

Syntax

SELECT * FROM table WHERE indexHint(<expression>)

Returned value

1. Uint8.

Example

Here is the example of test data from the table ontime.

Table:

SELECT count() FROM ontime

┌─count()─┐
│ 4276457 │
└─────────┘

The table has indexes on the fields (FlightDate, (Year, FlightDate)).

Create a query which does not use the index:

SELECT FlightDate AS k, count() FROM ontime GROUP BY k ORDER BY k

ClickHouse processed the entire table (Processed 4.28 million rows).

Result:

┌──────────k─┬─count()─┐
│ 2017-01-01 │   13970 │
│ 2017-01-02 │   15882 │
........................
│ 2017-09-28 │   16411 │
│ 2017-09-29 │   16384 │
│ 2017-09-30 │   12520 │
└────────────┴─────────┘

To apply the index, select a specific date:

SELECT FlightDate AS k, count() FROM ontime WHERE k = '2017-09-15' GROUP BY k ORDER BY k

ClickHouse now uses the index to process a significantly smaller number of rows (Processed 32.74 thousand rows).

Result:

┌──────────k─┬─count()─┐
│ 2017-09-15 │   16428 │
└────────────┴─────────┘

Now wrap the expression k = '2017-09-15' in function indexHint:

Query:

SELECT
    FlightDate AS k,
    count()
FROM ontime
WHERE indexHint(k = '2017-09-15')
GROUP BY k
ORDER BY k ASC

ClickHouse used the index the same way as previously (Processed 32.74 thousand rows). The expression k = '2017-09-15' was not used when generating the result. In example, the indexHint function allows to see adjacent dates.

Result:

┌──────────k─┬─count()─┐

runningAccumulate

Accumulates the states of an aggregate function for each row of a data block.

note

The state is reset for each new block of data. Because of this error-prone behavior the function is DEPRECATED, please use proper window functions instead.

Syntax

runningAccumulate(agg_state[, grouping]);

Arguments

agg_state — State of the aggregate function. AggregateFunction.
grouping — Grouping key. Optional. The state of the function is reset if the grouping value is changed. It can be any of the supported data types for which the equality operator is defined.

Returned value

Each resulting row contains a result of the aggregate function, accumulated for all the input rows from 0 to the current position. runningAccumulate resets states for each new data block or when the grouping value changes.

Type depends on the aggregate function used.

Examples

Consider how you can use runningAccumulate to find the cumulative sum of numbers without and with grouping.

Query:

SELECT k, runningAccumulate(sum_k) AS res FROM (SELECT number as k, sumState(k) AS sum_k FROM numbers(10) GROUP BY k ORDER BY k);

Result:

┌─k─┬─res─┐

│ 9 │  45 │
└───┴─────┘

The subquery generates sumState for every number from 0 to 9. sumState returns the state of the sum function that contains the sum of a single number.

The whole query does the following:

For the first row, runningAccumulate takes sumState(0) and returns 0.
For the second row, the function merges sumState(0) and sumState(1) resulting in sumState(0 + 1), and returns 1 as a result.
For the third row, the function merges sumState(0 + 1) and sumState(2) resulting in sumState(0 + 1 + 2), and returns 3 as a result.
The actions are repeated until the block ends.

The following example shows the groupping parameter usage:

Query:

SELECT
    grouping,
    item,
    runningAccumulate(state, grouping) AS res
FROM
(
    SELECT
        toInt8(number / 4) AS grouping,
        number AS item,
        sumState(number) AS state
    FROM numbers(15)
    GROUP BY item
    ORDER BY item ASC

joinGet

The function lets you extract data from the table the same way as from a dictionary.

Gets the data from Join tables using the specified join key.

Only supports tables created with the ENGINE = Join(ANY, LEFT, <join_keys>) statement.

Syntax

joinGet(join_storage_table_name, `value_column`, join_keys)

Arguments

join_storage_table_name — an identifier indicating where the search is performed. The identifier is searched in the default database (see setting default_database in the config file). To override the default database, use USE db_name or specify the database and the table through the separator db_name.db_table as in the example.
value_column — name of the column of the table that contains required data.
join_keys — list of keys.

Returned value

Returns a list of values corresponded to list of keys.

If certain does not exist in source table then 0 or null will be returned based on join_use_nulls setting.

More info about join_use_nulls in Join operation.

Example

Input table:

CREATE DATABASE db_test
CREATE TABLE db_test.id_val(`id` UInt32, `val` UInt32) ENGINE = Join(ANY, LEFT, id) SETTINGS join_use_nulls = 1
INSERT INTO db_test.id_val VALUES (1,11)(2,12)(4,13)

catboostEvaluate

note

This function is not available in ClickHouse Cloud.

Evaluate an external catboost model. CatBoost is an open-source gradient boosting library developed by Yandex for machine learning. Accepts a path to a catboost model and model arguments (features). Returns Float64.

Syntax

catboostEvaluate(path_to_model, feature_1, feature_2, ..., feature_n)

Example

SELECT feat1, ..., feat_n, catboostEvaluate('/path/to/model.bin', feat_1, ..., feat_n) AS prediction
FROM data_table

Prerequisites

Build the catboost evaluation library

Before evaluating catboost models, the libcatboostmodel.<so|dylib> library must be made available. See CatBoost documentation how to compile it.

Next, specify the path to libcatboostmodel.<so|dylib> in the clickhouse configuration:

<clickhouse>
...
    <catboost_lib_path>/path/to/libcatboostmodel.so</catboost_lib_path>
...
</clickhouse>

For security and isolation reasons, the model evaluation does not run in the server process but in the clickhouse-library-bridge process. At the first execution of catboostEvaluate(), the server starts the library bridge process if it is not running already. Both processes communicate using a HTTP interface. By default, port 9012 is used. A different port can be specified as follows - this is useful if port 9012 is already assigned to a different service.

<library_bridge>
    <port>9019</port>
</library_bridge>

Train a catboost model using libcatboost

See Training and applying models for how to train catboost models from a training data set.

throwIf

SELECT throwIf(number = 3, 'Too many') FROM numbers(10);

Result:

↙ Progress: 0.00 rows, 0.00 B (0.00 rows/s., 0.00 B/s.) Received exception from server (version 19.14.1):
Code: 395. DB::Exception: Received from localhost:9000. DB::Exception: Too many.

Example

Query:

SELECT isDecimalOverflow(toDecimal32(1000000000, 0), 9),
       isDecimalOverflow(toDecimal32(1000000000, 0)),
       isDecimalOverflow(toDecimal32(-1000000000, 0), 9),
       isDecimalOverflow(toDecimal32(-1000000000, 0));

Result:

countDigits

Returns number of decimal digits need to represent a value.

Syntax

countDigits(x)

Arguments

x — Int or Decimal value.

Returned value

Number of digits. UInt8.

note

For Decimal values takes into account their scales: calculates result over underlying integer type which is (value * scale). For example: countDigits(42) = 2, countDigits(42.000) = 5, countDigits(0.04200) = 4. I.e. you may check decimal overflow for Decimal64 with countDecimal(x) > 18. It's a slow variant of isDecimalOverflow.

Example

Query:

SELECT countDigits(toDecimal32(1, 9)), countDigits(toDecimal32(-1, 9)),
       countDigits(toDecimal64(1, 18)), countDigits(toDecimal64(-1, 18)),

minSampleSizeConversion

Calculates minimum required sample size for an A/B test comparing conversions (proportions) in two samples.

Syntax

minSampleSizeConversion(baseline, mde, power, alpha)

Uses the formula described in this article. Assumes equal sizes of treatment and control groups. Returns the sample size required for one group (i.e. the sample size required for the whole experiment is twice the returned value).

Arguments

baseline — Baseline conversion. Float.
mde — Minimum detectable effect (MDE) as percentage points (e.g. for a baseline conversion 0.25 the MDE 0.03 means an expected change to 0.25 ± 0.03). Float.
power — Required statistical power of a test (1 - probability of Type II error). Float.
alpha — Required significance level of a test (probability of Type I error). Float.

Returned value

A named Tuple with 3 elements:

"minimum_sample_size" — Required sample size. Float64.
"detect_range_lower" — Lower bound of the range of values not detectable with the returned required sample size (i.e. all values less than or equal to "detect_range_lower" are detectable with the provided alpha and power). Calculated as baseline - mde. Float64.
"detect_range_upper" — Upper bound of the range of values not detectable with the returned required sample size (i.e. all values greater than or equal to "detect_range_upper" are detectable with the provided alpha and power). Calculated as baseline + mde. Float64.

Example

The following query calculates the required sample size for an A/B test with baseline conversion of 25%, MDE of 3%, significance level of 5%, and the desired statistical power of 80%:

SELECT minSampleSizeConversion(0.25, 0.03, 0.80, 0.05) AS sample_size;

Result:

┌─sample_size───────────────────┐
│ (3396.077603219163,0.22,0.28) │
└───────────────────────────────┘

minSampleSizeContinuous

Calculates minimum required sample size for an A/B test comparing means of a continuous metric in two samples.

Syntax

minSampleSizeContinous(baseline, sigma, mde, power, alpha)

Alias: minSampleSizeContinous

Uses the formula described in this article. Assumes equal sizes of treatment and control groups. Returns the required sample size for one group (i.e. the sample size required for the whole experiment is twice the returned value). Also assumes equal variance of the test metric in treatment and control groups.

Arguments

baseline — Baseline value of a metric. Integer or Float.
sigma — Baseline standard deviation of a metric. Integer or Float.
mde — Minimum detectable effect (MDE) as percentage of the baseline value (e.g. for a baseline value 112.25 the MDE 0.03 means an expected change to 112.25 ± 112.25*0.03). Integer or Float.
power — Required statistical power of a test (1 - probability of Type II error). Integer or Float.
alpha — Required significance level of a test (probability of Type I error). Integer or Float.

Returned value

A named Tuple with 3 elements:

"minimum_sample_size" — Required sample size. Float64.
"detect_range_lower" — Lower bound of the range of values not detectable with the returned required sample size (i.e. all values less than or equal to "detect_range_lower" are detectable with the provided alpha and power). Calculated as baseline * (1 - mde). Float64.
"detect_range_upper" — Upper bound of the range of values not detectable with the returned required sample size (i.e. all values greater than or equal to "detect_range_upper" are detectable with the provided alpha and power). Calculated as baseline * (1 + mde). Float64.

Example

The following query calculates the required sample size for an A/B test on a metric with baseline value of 112.25, standard deviation of 21.1, MDE of 3%, significance level of 5%, and the desired statistical power of 80%:

SELECT minSampleSizeContinous(112.25, 21.1, 0.03, 0.80, 0.05) AS sample_size;

Result:

┌─sample_size───────────────────────────┐

└───────────────────────────────────────┘

connectionId

Retrieves the connection ID of the client that submitted the current query and returns it as a UInt64 integer.

Syntax

connectionId()

Parameters

None.

Returned value

Returns an integer of type UInt64.

Implementation details

This function is most useful in debugging scenarios or for internal purposes within the MySQL handler. It was created for compatibility with MySQL's CONNECTION_ID function It is not typically used in production queries.

Example

Query:

SELECT connectionId();

connection_id

An alias of connectionId. Retrieves the connection ID of the client that submitted the current query and returns it as a UInt64 integer.

Syntax

connection_id()

Parameters

None.

Returned value

Returns an integer of type UInt64.

Implementation details

Example

Query:

SELECT connection_id();

getClientHTTPHeader

Get the value of an HTTP header.

If there is no such header or the current request is not performed via the HTTP interface, the function returns an empty string. Certain HTTP headers (e.g., Authentication and X-ClickHouse-*) are restricted.

The function requires the setting allow_get_client_http_header to be enabled. The setting is not enabled by default for security reasons, because some headers, such as Cookie, could contain sensitive info.

HTTP headers are case sensitive for this function.

If the function is used in the context of a distributed query, it returns non-empty result only on the initiator node.

showCertificate

Shows information about the current server's Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate if it has been configured. See Configuring SSL-TLS for more information on how to configure ClickHouse to use OpenSSL certificates to validate connections.

Syntax

showCertificate()

Returned value

Map of key-value pairs relating to the configured SSL certificate. Map(String, String).

Example

Query:

SELECT showCertificate() FORMAT LineAsString;

Result:

{'version':'1','serial_number':'2D9071D64530052D48308473922C7ADAFA85D6C5','signature_algo':'sha256WithRSAEncryption','issuer':'/CN=marsnet.local CA','not_before':'May  7 17:01:21 2024 GMT','not_after':'May  7 17:01:21 2025 GMT','subject':'/CN=chnode1','pkey_algo':'rsaEncryption'}
