在HQL中,我们可以使用关系操作符、数学操作符、逻辑操作符、复合类型操作符以及复合类型构建器。其中,关系操作符、数学操作符和逻辑操作符这三个操作符在HQL的使用方法和大多数高级编程语言,如SQL/Java/Golang,类似。HQL的函数类型总体分为:
> SHOW FUNCTIONS; -- List all functions> DESCRIBE FUNCTION <function_name>; -- Detail for the function> DESCRIBE FUNCTION EXTENDED <function_name>; -- More details
集合函数(Collection functions)
1.1 Size函数
用于计算MAP, ARRAY,或者内嵌MAP或的大小。当时集合为空时,返回0;当集合为NULL时,返回-1。
> SELECT > SIZE(work_place) as array_size, > SIZE(skills_score) as map_size, > SIZE(depart_title) as complex_size, > SIZE(depart_title["Product"]) as nest_size > FROM employee; +-------------+-----------+---------------+------------+ | array_size | map_size | complex_size | nest_size | +-------------+-----------+---------------+------------+ | 2 | 1 | 1 | 2 | | 1 | 1 | 2 | 1 | | 1 | 1 | 2 | -1 | | 1 | 2 | 1 | -1 | +-------------+-----------+---------------+------------+ 4 rows selected (0.062 seconds) > SELECT size(null), size(array(null)), size(array()); +-----+-----+-----+ | _c0 | _c1 | _c2 | +-----+-----+-----+ | -1 | 1 | 0 | +-----+-----+-----+ 1 row selected (11.453 seconds)
1.2 array_contains函数, 用于检查某个ARRAY是否包含某个值,返回TRUE/FALSE值。
1.3 sort_array函数,用于将某个ARRAY以ASC方式排序。
> SELECT > array_contains(work_place, 'Toronto') as is_Toronto, > sort_array(work_place) as sorted_array > FROM employee; +-------------+-------------------------+ | is_toronto | sorted_array | +-------------+-------------------------+ | true | ["Montreal","Toronto"] | | false | ["Montreal"] | | false | ["New York"] | | false | ["Vancouver"] | +-------------+-------------------------+
日期函数(Date functions)
to_date函数从一个日期类型的数据中移除时分秒。
> SELECT TO_DATE(FROM_UNIXTIME(UNIX_TIMESTAMP())) as currentdate; +---------------+ | currentdate | +---------------+ | 2018-05-15 | +---------------+ 1 row selected (0.153 seconds)
字符串函数(String functions)
reverse函数把一个字符串倒序返回。split函数使用特定分词器将一个字符串切分为若干个子字符串。
> SELECT > reverse(split(reverse('/home/user/employee.txt'),'/')[0]) > as linux_file_name; +------------------+ | linux_file_name | +------------------+ | employee.txt | +------------------+ 1 row selected (0.1 seconds)
explode函数把一个ARRAY/MAP的每一个元素输出成一行
collect_set函数把多行记录中的某指定字段列的数据返回为一个ARRAY,其中如有重复,会去重。
collect_list函数把多行记录中的某指定字段列的数据返回为一个ARRAY,其中如有重复,不会去重。
> SELECT > collect_set(gender_age.gender) as gender_set, > collect_list(gender_age.gender) as gender_list > FROM employee; +-------------------+-----------------------------------+ | gender_set | gender_list | +-------------------+-----------------------------------+ | ["Male","Female"] | ["Male","Male","Female","Female"] | +-------------------+-----------------------------------+ 1 row selected (24.488 seconds)
虚拟列函数
目前只有两个函数,分别为INPUT__FILE__NAME和BLOCK__OFFSET__INSIDE__FILE。其中INPUT__FILE__NAME函数返回一个MAPPER任务的输入文件名,BLOCK__OFFSET__INSIDE__FILE函数返回当前全局文件的位置,如果文件是压缩过的,则返回当前block的文件相对位置。
> SELECT > INPUT__FILE__NAME,BLOCK__OFFSET__INSIDE__FILE as OFFSIDE > FROM employee; +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | input__file__name | offside | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | hdfs://localhost:9000/user/hive/warehouse/employee/000000_0 | 0 | | hdfs://localhost:9000/user/hive/warehouse/employee/000000_0 | 62 | | hdfs://localhost:9000/user/hive/warehouse/employee/000000_0 | 115 | | hdfs://localhost:9000/user/hive/warehouse/employee/000000_0 | 176 | +-------------------------------------------------------------+---------+ 4 rows selected (0.47 seconds)
