chDB is an embedded SQL OLAP Engine powered by ClickHouse 1 For more details: The birth of chDB
- In-process SQL OLAP Engine, powered by ClickHouse
- No need to install ClickHouse
- Minimized data copy from C++ to Python with python memoryview
- Input&Output support Parquet, CSV, JSON, Arrow, ORC and 60+more formats, samples
- Support Python DB API 2.0, example
Get started with chdb using our Installation and Usage Examples
Currently, chDB supports Python 3.8+ on macOS and Linux (x86_64 and ARM64).
pip install chdb
python3 -m chdb SQL [OutputFormat]
python3 -m chdb "SELECT 1,'abc'" PrettyThe following methods are available to access on-disk and in-memory data formats:
(Parquet, CSV, JSON, Arrow, ORC and 60+)
You can execute SQL and return desired format data.
import chdb
res = chdb.query('select version()', 'Pretty'); print(res)# See more data type format in tests/format_output.py
res = chdb.query('select * from file("data.parquet", Parquet)', 'JSON'); print(res)
res = chdb.query('select * from file("data.csv", CSV)', 'CSV'); print(res)
print(f"SQL read {res.rows_read()} rows, {res.bytes_read()} bytes, elapsed {res.elapsed()} seconds")# See more in https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/interfaces/formats
chdb.query('select * from file("data.parquet", Parquet)', 'Dataframe')(Pandas DataFrame, Parquet file/bytes, Arrow bytes)
import chdb.dataframe as cdf
import pandas as pd
# Join 2 DataFrames
df1 = pd.DataFrame({'a': [1, 2, 3], 'b': ["one", "two", "three"]})
df2 = pd.DataFrame({'c': [1, 2, 3], 'd': ["โ ", "โก", "โข"]})
ret_tbl = cdf.query(sql="select * from __tbl1__ t1 join __tbl2__ t2 on t1.a = t2.c",
tbl1=df1, tbl2=df2)
print(ret_tbl)
# Query on the DataFrame Table
print(ret_tbl.query('select b, sum(a) from __table__ group by b'))from chdb import session as chs
## Create DB, Table, View in temp session, auto cleanup when session is deleted.
sess = chs.Session()
sess.query("CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS db_xxx ENGINE = Atomic")
sess.query("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS db_xxx.log_table_xxx (x String, y Int) ENGINE = Log;")
sess.query("INSERT INTO db_xxx.log_table_xxx VALUES ('a', 1), ('b', 3), ('c', 2), ('d', 5);")
sess.query(
"CREATE VIEW db_xxx.view_xxx AS SELECT * FROM db_xxx.log_table_xxx LIMIT 4;"
)
print("Select from view:\n")
print(sess.query("SELECT * FROM db_xxx.view_xxx", "Pretty"))see also: test_stateful.py.
import chdb.dbapi as dbapi
print("chdb driver version: {0}".format(dbapi.get_client_info()))
conn1 = dbapi.connect()
cur1 = conn1.cursor()
cur1.execute('select version()')
print("description: ", cur1.description)
print("data: ", cur1.fetchone())
cur1.close()
conn1.close()from chdb.udf import chdb_udf
from chdb import query
@chdb_udf()
def sum_udf(lhs, rhs):
return int(lhs) + int(rhs)
print(query("select sum_udf(12,22)"))see also: test_udf.py.
