Other Functions

hostName()

Returns a string with the name of the host that this function was performed on. For distributed processing, this is the name of the remote server host, if the function is performed on a remote server. If it is executed in the context of a distributed table, then it generates a normal column with values relevant to each shard. Otherwise it produces a constant value.

└─────────┴───────────────────────────────┘

You can get similar result by using ternary operator: isFinite(x) ? x : y.

isNaN(x)

Accepts Float32 and Float64 and returns UInt8 equal to 1 if the argument is a NaN, otherwise 0.

hasColumnInTable([‘hostname’[, ‘username’[, ‘password’]],] ‘database’, ‘table’, ‘column’)

Accepts constant strings: database name, table name, and column name. Returns a UInt8 constant expression equal to 1 if there is a column, otherwise 0. If the hostname parameter is set, the test will run on a remote server. The function throws an exception if the table does not exist. For elements in a nested data structure, the function checks for the existence of a column. For the nested data structure itself, the function returns 0.

bar

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 for converting.

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 – Arrays of the same size.

Types:

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

T and U can be numeric, string, or Date or DateTime types. Where the same letter is indicated (T or U), for numeric types these might not be matching types, but types that have a common type. For example, the first argument can have the Int64 type, while the second has the Array(UInt16) type.

If the ‘x’ value is equal to one of the elements in the ‘array_from’ array, it returns the existing element (that is numbered the same) from the ‘array_to’ array. Otherwise, it returns ‘default’. If there are multiple matching elements in ‘array_from’, it returns one of the matches.

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

│ Google    │ 229872 │
│ Other     │ 104472 │
└───────────┴────────┘

transform(x, array_from, array_to)

Differs from the first variation in that the ‘default’ argument is omitted. If the ‘x’ value is equal to one of the elements in the ‘array_from’ array, it returns the matching element (that is numbered the same) from the ‘array_to’ array. Otherwise, it returns ‘x’.

Types:

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

Example:

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

warning

It can reach the previous row only inside the currently processed data block.

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

The rows order used during the calculation of runningDifference can differ from the order of rows returned to the user. To prevent that you can make a subquery with ORDER BY and call the function from outside the subquery.

Example:

SELECT
    EventID,
    EventTime,
    runningDifference(EventTime) AS delta
FROM
(
    SELECT
        EventID,
        EventTime
    FROM events
    WHERE EventDate = '2016-11-24'
    ORDER BY EventTime ASC
    LIMIT 5
)

┌─EventID─┬───────────EventTime─┬─delta─┐

runningDifferenceStartingWithFirstValue

Same as for runningDifference, the difference is the value of the first row, returned the value of the first row, and each subsequent row returns the difference from the previous 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.

warning

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.

Type: UInt32

Example

Consider the table:

┌──────start─┬────────end─┐

indexHint

The function is intended for debugging and introspection purposes. The function ignores it's argument and always returns 1. Arguments are not even evaluated.

But for the purpose of index analysis, the argument of this function is analyzed as if it was present directly without being wrapped inside indexHint function. 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

Type: Uint8.

Example

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

Input table:

SELECT count() FROM ontime

┌─count()─┐
│ 4276457 │
└─────────┘

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

Create a query, where the index is not used.

Query:

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 │
........................

│ 2017-09-29 │   16384 │
│ 2017-09-30 │   12520 │
└────────────┴─────────┘

To apply the index, select a specific date.

Query:

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

By using the index, ClickHouse processed 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' into indexHint function.

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 in the same way as the previous time (Processed 32.74 thousand rows). The expression k = '2017-09-15' was not used when generating the result. In examle the indexHint function allows to see adjacent dates.

Result:

┌──────────k─┬─count()─┐
│ 2017-09-14 │    7071 │
│ 2017-09-15 │   16428 │

└────────────┴─────────┘

replicate

Creates an array with a single value.

Used for internal implementation of arrayJoin.

SELECT replicate(x, arr);

Arguments:

arr — Original array. ClickHouse creates a new array of the same length as the original and fills it with the value x.
x — The value that the resulting array will be filled with.

Returned value

An array filled with the value x.

Type: Array.

Example

Query:

SELECT replicate(1, ['a', 'b', 'c'])

Result:

filesystemAvailable

Returns amount of remaining space on the filesystem where the files of the databases located. It is always smaller than total free space (filesystemFree) because some space is reserved for OS.

Syntax

filesystemAvailable()

Returned value

The amount of remaining space available in bytes.

Type: UInt64.

Example

Query:

SELECT formatReadableSize(filesystemAvailable()) AS "Available space", toTypeName(filesystemAvailable()) AS "Type";

Result:

┌─Available space─┬─Type───┐
│ 30.75 GiB       │ UInt64 │

initializeAggregation

Calculates result of aggregate function based on single value. It is intended to use this function to initialize aggregate functions with combinator -State. You can create states of aggregate functions and insert them to columns of type AggregateFunction or use initialized aggregates as default values.

Syntax

initializeAggregation (aggregate_function, arg1, arg2, ..., argN)

Arguments

aggregate_function — Name of the aggregation function to initialize. String.
arg — Arguments of aggregate function.

Returned value(s)

Result of aggregation for every row passed to the function.

The return type is the same as the return type of function, that initializeAgregation takes as first argument.

Example

Query:

SELECT uniqMerge(state) FROM (SELECT initializeAggregation('uniqState', number % 3) AS state FROM numbers(10000));

Result:

┌─uniqMerge(state)─┐
│                3 │
└──────────────────┘

Query:

SELECT finalizeAggregation(state), toTypeName(state) FROM (SELECT initializeAggregation('sumState', number % 3) AS state FROM numbers(5));

Result:

runningAccumulate

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

warning

The state is reset for each new data block.

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:

│ 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,

joinGet

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

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

Returned value

Returns 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.

isDecimalOverflow

Checks whether the Decimal value is out of its (or specified) precision.

Syntax

isDecimalOverflow(d, [p])

Arguments

d — value. Decimal.
p — precision. Optional. If omitted, the initial precision of the first argument is used. Using of this paratemer could be helpful for data extraction to another DBMS or file. UInt8.

Returned values

1 — Decimal value has more digits then it's precision allow,
0 — Decimal value satisfies the specified precision.

Example

Query:

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

countDigits

Returns number of decimal digits you need to represent the value.

Syntax

countDigits(x)

Arguments

x — Int or Decimal value.

Returned value

Number of digits.

Type: 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)),
       countDigits(toDecimal128(1, 38)), countDigits(toDecimal128(-1, 38));
