# Simple query, get all the key-value pairs with key prefix 'k'
select * where key ^= 'k'
# Projection and complex condition
select key, int(value) + 1 where key in ('k1', 'k2', 'k3') & is_int(value)
# Aggregation query
select count(1), sum(int(value)) as sum, substr(key, 0, 2) as kprefix where key between 'k' and 'l' group by kprefix order by sum desc
# JSON access
select key, json(value)['x']['y'] where key ^= 'k' & int(json(value)['test']) >= 1
select key, json(value)['list'][1] where key ^= 'k'
# Filter by field name defined in select statement
select key, int(value) as f1 where f1 > 10
select key, split(value) as f1 where 'a' in f1
select key, value, l2_distance(list(1,2,3,4), json(value)) as l2_dis where key ^= 'embedding_json' & l2_dis > 0.6 order by l2_dis desc limit 5
# Put data
put ('k1', 'v1'), ('k2', upper('v' + key))
# Delete data by filter and limit delete rows
delete where key ^= 'prefix' and value ~= '^val_' limit 10
delete where key in ('k1', 'k2', 'k3')
A full example:
https://github.com/c4pt0r/kvql/blob/master/examples/memkv/memkv.go
To get better error report, you can conver the error to QueryBinder
and set the origin query like below:
...
opt := kvql.NewOptimizer(query)
plan, err := opt.BuildPlan(storage)
if err != nil {
if qerr, ok := err.(kvql.QueryBinder); ok {
qerr.BindQuery(query)
}
fmt.Printf("Error: %s\n", err.Error())
}
...
After bind the query to error it will output error result like:
padding query
v-----vv--------------------------------------------v
Error: select * where key ^= 'asdf' and val ^= 'test' < query line
^-- < error position
Syntax Error: ^= operator with invalid left expression < error message
About padding: user can use kvql.DefaultErrorPadding
to change the default left padding spaces. Or can use kvql.QueryBinder.SetPadding
function to change specify error's padding. The default padding is 7 space characters (length of Error:
).
If you want to display the plan tree, like EXPLAIN
statement in SQL, the kvql.FinalPlan.Explain
function will return the plan tree in a string list, you can use below code to format the explain output:
...
opt := kvql.NewOptimizer(query)
plan, err := opt.BuildPlan(storage)
if err != nil {
fatal(err)
}
output := ""
for i, plan := range plan.Explain() {
padding := ""
for x := 0; x < i*3; x++ {
padding += " "
}
if i == 0 {
output += fmt.Sprintf("%s%s\n", padding, plan)
} else {
output += fmt.Sprintf("%s`-%s\n", padding, plan)
}
}
fmt.Println(output)
