ClickHouse JDBC driver

This is a basic and restricted implementation of jdbc driver for ClickHouse. It has support of a minimal subset of features to be usable.

Usage

<dependency>
    <groupId>ru.yandex.clickhouse</groupId>
    <artifactId>clickhouse-jdbc</artifactId>
    <version>0.2</version>
</dependency>

URL syntax: jdbc:clickhouse://<host>:<port>[/<database>], e.g. jdbc:clickhouse://localhost:8123/test

JDBC Driver Class: ru.yandex.clickhouse.ClickHouseDriver

additionally, if you have a few instances, you can use BalancedClickhouseDataSource.

Extended API

In order to provide non-JDBC complaint data manipulation functionality, proprietary API exists. Entry point for API is ClickHouseStatement#write() method.

Importing file into table

import ru.yandex.clickhouse.ClickHouseStatement;
ClickHouseStatement sth = connection.createStatement();
sth
    .write() // Write API entrypoint
    .table("default.my_table") // where to write data
    .option("format_csv_delimiter", ";") // specific param
    .data(new File("/path/to/file.csv"), ClickHouseFormat.CSV) // specify input
    .send();

Configurable send

import ru.yandex.clickhouse.ClickHouseStatement;
ClickHouseStatement sth = connection.createStatement();
sth
    .write()
    .sql("INSERT INTO default.my_table (a,b,c) VALUES")
    .data(new MyCustomInputStream(), ClickHouseFormat.JSONEachRow)
    .addDbParam(ClickHouseQueryParam.MAX_PARALLEL_REPLICAS, 2)
    .send();

Send data in binary formatd with custom user callback

import ru.yandex.clickhouse.ClickHouseStatement;
ClickHouseStatement sth = connection.createStatement();
sth.write().send("INSERT INTO test.writer", new ClickHouseStreamCallback() {
    @Override
    public void writeTo(ClickHouseRowBinaryStream stream) throws IOException {
        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
            stream.writeInt32(i);
            stream.writeString("Name " + i);
        }
    }
},
ClickHouseFormat.RowBinary); // RowBinary or Native are supported

Compiling with maven

The driver is built with maven. mvn package -DskipTests=true

To build a jar with dependencies use

mvn package assembly:single -DskipTests=true

Build requirements

In order to build the jdbc client one need to have jdk 1.6 or higher.
