Formats of query results

The following formats of query results are supported: string, json, full_json, and flatbuffers. You can configure the format of query results by using one of the following methods:

  • Specify the format in the configuration file. The format configuration globally takes effect after SQL in Havenask is started. By default, all queries return query results in the specified format.

  • Specify the format in the kvpair clause of a query. The format configuration takes effect for the query. The query returns the results in the format that is specified in the kvpair clause regardless of the format specified in the configuration file.

Specify the format of the query results in the kvpair clause of the query

In the kvpair clause of the query, specify the format of the query results by using formatType:json or formatType:string. For more information about how to use the kvpair clauses, see kvpair clauses.


query=...&&kvpair=...;formatType:{json | string | full_json | flatbuffers};...

Query results returned in the string format

The query results in the string format are typeset. This ensures that the displayed results are user-friendly. In most cases, the query results in the string format are used for debugging. This helps with troubleshooting.

Query results returned in the JSON format

The query results in the JSON format are used for service invocation. This facilitates program parsing. The results in the JSON format contain more information than the results in the string format. The following section describes each field that is included in the returned results.


select nid, price, brand, size from phone&&kvpair=formatType:json

{

"error_info": // The error message returned.

  "{\"Error\": ERROR_NONE}",

"format_type":

  "json",

"row_count": // The number of rows in the results.

  10,

"search_info": // The information about the query, including operators such as scan and sort.

"total_time": // The duration of the query. Unit: seconds.

}

Query results returned in the FULL_JSON format

The results in the FULL_JSON format and the results in the JSON format use a similar structure. The only difference between the formats is the value of the sql_result field. In the JSON format, the value of the sql_result field is in the string format. In the FULL_JSON format, the value of the sql_result field is in the JSON format.

searchInfo description

In the returned results, searchInfo is a complex field. You can analyze the query process to resolve issues and optimize performance based on the value of the searchInfo field. To include the searchInfo field in the returned results, add searchInfo:true to the kvpair clause.

Query results returned in the flatbuffers format

The results in the flatbuffers format are the results of efficient serialization that is implemented based on FlatBuffers. The flatbuffers format is used when high performance is required. The results in the flatbuffers format need to be deserialized and parsed by the corresponding client. FlatBuffers is defined as follows:

include "TwoDimTable.fbs";

Additional considerations

For the column_type field, the value that is prefixed with multi_ is of the multi-value type. The structure is a list. The value multi_char indicates values of the string type.
