SQL scalar functions

SQL scalar functions

info

Apache Druid supports two query languages: Druid SQL and native queries. This document describes the SQL language.

Druid SQL includes scalar functions that include numeric and string functions, IP address functions, Sketch functions, and more, as described on this page.

Numeric functions

For mathematical operations, Druid SQL will use integer math if all operands involved in an expression are integers. Otherwise, Druid will switch to floating point math. You can force this to happen by casting one of your operands to FLOAT. At runtime, Druid will widen 32-bit floats to 64-bit for most expressions.

Function	Notes
`PI`	Constant Pi.
`ABS(expr)`	Absolute value.
`CEIL(expr)`	Ceiling.
`EXP(expr)`	e to the power of `expr`.
`FLOOR(expr)`	Floor.

`POWER(expr, power)`	`expr` raised to the power of `power`.
`SQRT(expr)`	Square root.
`TRUNCATE(expr, [digits])`	Truncate `expr` to a specific number of decimal digits. If digits is negative, then this truncates that many places to the left of the decimal point. Digits defaults to zero if not specified.
`TRUNC(expr, [digits])`	Alias for `TRUNCATE`.
`ROUND(expr, [digits])`	`ROUND(x, y)` would return the value of the x rounded to the y decimal places. While x can be an integer or floating-point number, y must be an integer. The type of the return value is specified by that of x. y defaults to 0 if omitted. When y is negative, x is rounded on the left side of the y decimal points. If `expr` evaluates to either `NaN`, `expr` will be converted to 0. If `expr` is infinity, `expr` will be converted to the nearest finite double.

`LOWER(expr)`	Returns `expr` in all lowercase.
`UPPER(expr)`	Returns `expr` in all uppercase.

`POSITION(needle IN haystack [FROM fromIndex])`	Returns the index of `needle` within `haystack`, with indexes starting from 1. The search will begin at `fromIndex`, or 1 if `fromIndex` is not specified. If `needle` is not found, returns 0.
`REGEXP_EXTRACT(expr, pattern, [index])`	Apply regular expression `pattern` to `expr` and extract a capture group, or `NULL` if there is no match. If index is unspecified or zero, returns the first substring that matched the pattern. The pattern may match anywhere inside `expr`; if you want to match the entire string instead, use the `^` and `$` markers at the start and end of your pattern. Note: when `druid.generic.useDefaultValueForNull = true`, it is not possible to differentiate an empty-string match from a non-match (both will return `NULL`).
`REGEXP_LIKE(expr, pattern)`	Returns whether `expr` matches regular expression `pattern`. The pattern may match anywhere inside `expr`; if you want to match the entire string instead, use the `^` and `$` markers at the start and end of your pattern. Similar to LIKE, but uses regexps instead of LIKE patterns. Especially useful in WHERE clauses.
`REGEXP_REPLACE(expr, pattern, replacement)`	Replaces all occurrences of regular expression `pattern` within `expr` with `replacement`. The replacement string may refer to capture groups using `$1`, `$2`, etc. The pattern may match anywhere inside `expr`; if you want to match the entire string instead, use the `^` and `$` markers at the start and end of your pattern.
`CONTAINS_STRING(expr, str)`	Returns true if the `str` is a substring of `expr`.

`LPAD(expr, length, [chars])`	Returns a string of `length` from `expr` left-padded with `chars`. If `length` is shorter than the length of `expr`, the result is `expr` which is truncated to `length`. The result will be null if either `expr` or `chars` is null. If `chars` is an empty string, no padding is added, however `expr` may be trimmed if necessary.
`RPAD(expr, length, [chars])`	Returns a string of `length` from `expr` right-padded with `chars`. If `length` is shorter than the length of `expr`, the result is `expr` which is truncated to `length`. The result will be null if either `expr` or `chars` is null. If `chars` is an empty string, no padding is added, however `expr` may be trimmed if necessary.

Date and time functions

Time functions can be used with:

Druid’s primary timestamp column, __time;
Numeric values representing milliseconds since the epoch, through the MILLIS_TO_TIMESTAMP function; and
String timestamps, through the TIME_PARSE function.

By default, time operations use the UTC time zone. You can change the time zone by setting the connection context parameter sqlTimeZone to the name of another time zone, like America/Los_Angeles, or to an offset like -08:00. If you need to mix multiple time zones in the same query, or if you need to use a time zone other than the connection time zone, some functions also accept time zones as parameters. These parameters always take precedence over the connection time zone.

Literal timestamps in the connection time zone can be written using TIMESTAMP '2000-01-01 00:00:00' syntax. The simplest way to write literal timestamps in other time zones is to use TIME_PARSE, like TIME_PARSE('2000-02-01 00:00:00', NULL, 'America/Los_Angeles').

The best ways to filter based on time are by using ISO8601 intervals, like TIME_IN_INTERVAL(__time, '2000-01-01/2000-02-01'), or by using literal timestamps with the >= and < operators, like __time >= TIMESTAMP '2000-01-01 00:00:00' AND __time < TIMESTAMP '2000-02-01 00:00:00'.

Druid supports the standard SQL BETWEEN operator, but we recommend avoiding it for time filters. BETWEEN is inclusive of its upper bound, which makes it awkward to write time filters correctly. For example, the equivalent of TIME_IN_INTERVAL(__time, '2000-01-01/2000-02-01') is __time BETWEEN TIMESTAMP '2000-01-01 00:00:00' AND TIMESTAMP '2000-01-31 23:59:59.999'.

Druid processes timestamps internally as longs (64-bit integers) representing milliseconds since the epoch. Therefore, time functions perform best when used with the primary timestamp column, or with timestamps stored in long columns as milliseconds and accessed with MILLIS_TO_TIMESTAMP. Other timestamp representations, include string timestamps and POSIX timestamps (seconds since the epoch) require query-time conversion to Druid’s internal form, which adds additional overhead.

Function	Notes
`CURRENT_TIMESTAMP`	Current timestamp in the connection’s time zone.
`CURRENT_DATE`	Current date in the connection’s time zone.
`DATE_TRUNC(unit, timestamp_expr)`	Rounds down a timestamp, returning it as a new timestamp. Unit can be ‘milliseconds’, ‘second’, ‘minute’, ‘hour’, ‘day’, ‘week’, ‘month’, ‘quarter’, ‘year’, ‘decade’, ‘century’, or ‘millennium’.
`TIME_CEIL(timestamp_expr, period, [origin, [timezone]])`	Rounds up a timestamp, returning it as a new timestamp. Period can be any ISO8601 period, like P3M (quarters) or PT12H (half-days). Specify `origin` as a timestamp to set the reference time for rounding. For example, `TIME_CEIL(time, ‘PT1H’, TIMESTAMP ‘2016-06-27 00:30:00’)` measures an hourly period from 00:30-01:30 instead of 00:00-01:00. See Period granularities for details on the default starting boundaries. The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like “America/Los_Angeles” or offset like “-08:00”. This function is similar to `CEIL` but is more flexible.
`TIME_FLOOR(timestamp_expr, period, [origin, [timezone]])`	Rounds down a timestamp, returning it as a new timestamp. Period can be any ISO8601 period, like P3M (quarters) or PT12H (half-days). Specify `origin` as a timestamp to set the reference time for rounding. For example, `TIME_FLOOR(time, ‘PT1H’, TIMESTAMP ‘2016-06-27 00:30:00’)` measures an hourly period from 00:30-01:30 instead of 00:00-01:00. See Period granularities for details on the default starting boundaries. The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like “America/Los_Angeles” or offset like “-08:00”. This function is similar to `FLOOR` but is more flexible.
`TIME_SHIFT(timestamp_expr, period, step, [timezone])`	Shifts a timestamp by a period (step times), returning it as a new timestamp. Period can be any ISO8601 period. Step may be negative. The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like “America/Los_Angeles” or offset like “-08:00”.
`TIME_EXTRACT(timestamp_expr, [unit, [timezone]])`	Extracts a time part from `expr`, returning it as a number. Unit can be EPOCH, SECOND, MINUTE, HOUR, DAY (day of month), DOW (day of week), DOY (day of year), WEEK (week of week year), MONTH (1 through 12), QUARTER (1 through 4), or YEAR. The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like “America/Los_Angeles” or offset like “-08:00”. This function is similar to `EXTRACT` but is more flexible. Unit and time zone must be literals, and must be provided quoted, like `TIME_EXTRACT(time, ‘HOUR’)` or `TIME_EXTRACT(``time, ‘HOUR’, ‘America/Los_Angeles’)`.
`TIME_PARSE(string_expr, [pattern, [timezone]])`	Parses a string into a timestamp using a given Joda DateTimeFormat pattern, or ISO8601 (e.g. `2000-01-02T03:04:05Z`) if the pattern is not provided. The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like “America/Los_Angeles” or offset like “-08:00”, and will be used as the time zone for strings that do not include a time zone offset. Pattern and time zone must be literals. Strings that cannot be parsed as timestamps will be returned as NULL.
`TIME_FORMAT(timestamp_expr, [pattern, [timezone]])`	Formats a timestamp as a string with a given Joda DateTimeFormat pattern, or ISO8601 (e.g. `2000-01-02T03:04:05Z`) if the pattern is not provided. The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like “America/Los_Angeles” or offset like “-08:00”. Pattern and time zone must be literals.
`TIME_IN_INTERVAL(timestamp_expr, interval)`	Returns whether a timestamp is contained within a particular interval. The interval must be a literal string containing any ISO8601 interval, such as `‘2001-01-01/P1D’` or `‘2001-01-01T01:00:00/2001-01-02T01:00:00’`. The start instant of the interval is inclusive and the end instant is exclusive.
`MILLIS_TO_TIMESTAMP(millis_expr)`	Converts a number of milliseconds since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC) into a timestamp.
`TIMESTAMP_TO_MILLIS(timestamp_expr)`	Converts a timestamp into a number of milliseconds since the epoch.
`EXTRACT(unit FROM timestamp_expr)`	Extracts a time part from `expr`, returning it as a number. Unit can be EPOCH, MICROSECOND, MILLISECOND, SECOND, MINUTE, HOUR, DAY (day of month), DOW (day of week), ISODOW (ISO day of week), DOY (day of year), WEEK (week of year), MONTH, QUARTER, YEAR, ISOYEAR, DECADE, CENTURY or MILLENNIUM.

Reduction functions

Reduction functions operate on zero or more expressions and return a single expression. If no expressions are passed as arguments, then the result is NULL. The expressions must all be convertible to a common data type, which will be the type of the result:

If all argument are NULL, the result is NULL. Otherwise, NULL arguments are ignored.
If the arguments comprise a mix of numbers and strings, the arguments are interpreted as strings.
If all arguments are integer numbers, the arguments are interpreted as longs.
If all arguments are numbers and at least one argument is a double, the arguments are interpreted as doubles.

Function	Notes
`GREATEST([expr1, …])`	Evaluates zero or more expressions and returns the maximum value based on comparisons as described above.
`LEAST([expr1, …])`	Evaluates zero or more expressions and returns the minimum value based on comparisons as described above.

IP address functions

For the IPv4 address functions, the address argument can either be an IPv4 dotted-decimal string (e.g., “192.168.0.1”) or an IP address represented as an integer (e.g., 3232235521). The subnet argument should be a string formatted as an IPv4 address subnet in CIDR notation (e.g., “192.168.0.0/16”).

Function	Notes
`IPV4_MATCH(address, subnet)`	Returns true if the `address` belongs to the `subnet` literal, else false. If `address` is not a valid IPv4 address, then false is returned. This function is more efficient if `address` is an integer instead of a string.
`IPV4_PARSE(address)`	Parses `address` into an IPv4 address stored as an integer . If `address` is an integer that is a valid IPv4 address, then it is passed through. Returns null if `address` cannot be represented as an IPv4 address.
`IPV4_STRINGIFY(address)`	Converts `address` into an IPv4 address dotted-decimal string. If `address` is a string that is a valid IPv4 address, then it is passed through. Returns null if `address` cannot be represented as an IPv4 address.
