ST_NumInteriorRings(poly)
NumInteriorRings(poly)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns an integer containing the number of interior rings
in the Polygon value poly.
 
Note that according the the OpenGIS standard, a POLYGON
should have exactly one ExteriorRing and all other rings
should lie within that ExteriorRing and thus be the
InteriorRings. Practically, however, some systems, including
MariaDB's, permit polygons to have several
'ExteriorRings'. In the case of there being multiple,
non-overlapping exterior rings ST_NumInteriorRings() will
return 1.
 
ST_NumInteriorRings() and NumInteriorRings() are synonyms.
 
Examples
-------- 
SET @poly = 'Polygon((0 0,0 3,3 3,3 0,0 0),(1 1,1 2,2 2,2

Description
----------- 
Subtraction. The operator is also used as the unary minus
for changing sign.
 
If both operands are integers, the result is calculated with
BIGINT precision. If either integer is unsigned, the result
is also an unsigned integer, unless the
NO_UNSIGNED_SUBTRACTION SQL_MODE is enabled, in which case
the result is always signed.
 
For real or string operands, the operand with the highest
precision determines the result precision.

------ 
/
 
Description
----------- 
Division operator. Dividing by zero will return NULL. By
default, returns four digits after the decimal. This is
determined by the server system variable
div_precision_increment which by default is four. It can be
set from 0 to 30.
 
Dividing by zero returns NULL. If the
ERROR_ON_DIVISION_BY_ZERO SQL_MODE is used (the default
since MariaDB 10.2.4), a division by zero also produces a
warning.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT 4/5;

Description
----------- 
Integer division. Similar to FLOOR(), but is safe with
BIGINT values.
Incorrect results may occur for non-integer operands that
exceed BIGINT range.
 
If the ERROR_ON_DIVISION_BY_ZERO SQL_MODE is used, a
division by zero produces an error. Otherwise, it returns
NULL.
 
The remainder of a division can be obtained using the MOD

CONV(N,from_base,to_base)
 
Description
----------- 
Converts numbers between different number bases. Returns a
string
representation of the number N, converted from base
from_base
to base to_base.
 
Returns NULL if any argument is NULL, or if the second or
third argument are not in the allowed range.
 
The argument N is interpreted as an integer, but may be
specified as an
integer or a string. The minimum base is 2 and the maximum
base is 36. If
to_base is a negative number, N is regarded as a signed
number.
Otherwise, N is treated as unsigned. CONV() works with
64-bit
precision.
 
Some shortcuts for this function are also available: BIN(),
OCT(), HEX(), UNHEX(). Also, MariaDB allows binary literal
values and hexadecimal literal values.

INSTALL PLUGIN [IF NOT EXISTS] plugin_name SONAME
'plugin_library'
 
Description
----------- 
This statement installs an individual plugin from the
specified library. To install the whole library (which could
be required), use INSTALL SONAME.
 
plugin_name is the name of the plugin as defined in the
plugin declaration structure contained in the library file.
Plugin names are
not case sensitive. For maximal compatibility, plugin names
should be limited
to ASCII letters, digits, and underscore, because they are
used in C source
files, shell command lines, M4 and Bourne shell scripts, and
SQL environments.
 
plugin_library is the name of the shared library that
contains the plugin code. Before MariaDB 5.5.21, the name
should include the file name extension (for
example, libmyplugin.so or libmyplugin.dll). Starting from
MariaDB 5.5.21, the file name extension can be omitted
(which makes the statement look the same on all
architectures).
 
The shared library must be located in the plugin directory
(that is,
the directory named by the plugin_dir system variable). The
library must be in the plugin directory itself, not in a
subdirectory. By
default, plugin_dir is plugin directory under the directory
named by
the pkglibdir configuration variable, but it can be changed
by setting
the value of plugin_dir at server startup. For example, set
its value in a my.cnf file:
 
[mysqld]
plugin_dir=/path/to/plugin/directory
If the value of plugin_dir is a relative path name, it is
taken to be relative to the MySQL base directory (the value
of the basedir
system variable).
 
INSTALL PLUGIN adds a line to the mysql.plugin table that
describes the plugin. This table contains the plugin name
and library file
name.
 
INSTALL PLUGIN causes the server to read
option (my.cnf) files just as during server startup. This
enables the plugin to
pick up any relevant options from those files. It is
possible to add plugin
options to an option file even before loading a plugin (if
the loose prefix is
used). It is also possible to uninstall a plugin, edit
my.cnf, and install the
plugin again. Restarting the plugin this way enables it to
the new option
values without a server restart.
 
Before MySQL 5.1.33, a plugin was started with each option
set to its
default value.
 
INSTALL PLUGIN also loads and initializes the plugin code to
make the plugin available for use. A plugin is initialized
by executing its
initialization function, which handles any setup that the
plugin must perform
before it can be used.
 
To use INSTALL PLUGIN, you must have the
INSERT privilege for the mysql.plugin table.
 
At server startup, the server loads and initializes any
plugin that is
listed in the mysql.plugin table. This means that a plugin
is installed
with INSTALL PLUGIN only once, not every time the server
starts. Plugin loading at startup does not occur if the
server is started with
the --skip-grant-tables option.
 
When the server shuts down, it executes the deinitialization
function
for each plugin that is loaded so that the plugin has a
chance to
perform any final cleanup.
 
If you need to load plugins for a single server startup when
the
--skip-grant-tables option is given (which tells the server
not to read system tables), use the 
--plugin-load mysqld option.
 
IF NOT EXISTS
 
When the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a
note instead of an error if the specified plugin already
exists. See SHOW WARNINGS.
 
Examples
-------- 
INSTALL PLUGIN sphinx SONAME 'ha_sphinx.so';
 
Starting from MariaDB 5.5.21, the extension can be omitted:
 
INSTALL PLUGIN innodb SONAME 'ha_xtradb';
 
From MariaDB 10.4.0:
 
INSTALL PLUGIN IF NOT EXISTS example SONAME 'ha_example';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.104 sec)
 
INSTALL PLUGIN IF NOT EXISTS example SONAME 'ha_example';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.000 sec)

$��3���ެPlugins are server components that enhance MariaDB in some
way. These can be anything from new storage engines, plugins
for enhancing full-text parsing, or even small enhancements,
such as a plugin to get a timestamp as an integer.
 
Querying Plugin Information
 
There are a number of ways to see which plugins are
currently active.
 
A server almost always has a large number of active plugins,
because the server contains a large number of built-in
plugins, which are active by default and cannot be
uninstalled.
 
Querying Plugin Information with SHOW PLUGINS
 
The SHOW PLUGINS statement can be used to query information
about all active plugins.
 
For example:
 
SHOW PLUGINS;
 
+----------------------------+----------+--------------------+---------+---------+
| Name | Status | Type | Library | License |
+----------------------------+----------+--------------------+---------+---------+
...
| mysql_native_password | ACTIVE | AUTHENTICATION | NULL |
GPL |
| mysql_old_password | ACTIVE | AUTHENTICATION | NULL | GPL
|
| MRG_MyISAM | ACTIVE | STORAGE ENGINE | NULL | GPL |
...
+----------------------------+----------+--------------------+---------+---------+
 
If a plugin's Library column has the NULL value, then the
plugin is built-in, and it cannot be uninstalled.
 
Querying Plugin Information with information_schema.PLUGINS
 
The information_schema.PLUGINS table can be queried to get
more detailed information about plugins.
 
For example:
 
SELECT * FROM information_schema.PLUGINS\G
...
*************************** 6. row
***************************
 PLUGIN_NAME: CSV
 PLUGIN_VERSION: 1.0
 PLUGIN_STATUS: ACTIVE
 PLUGIN_TYPE: STORAGE ENGINE
 PLUGIN_TYPE_VERSION: 100003.0
 PLUGIN_LIBRARY: NULL
PLUGIN_LIBRARY_VERSION: NULL
 PLUGIN_AUTHOR: Brian Aker, MySQL AB
 PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION: CSV storage engine
 PLUGIN_LICENSE: GPL
 LOAD_OPTION: FORCE
 PLUGIN_MATURITY: Stable
 PLUGIN_AUTH_VERSION: 1.0
*************************** 7. row
***************************
 PLUGIN_NAME: MEMORY
 PLUGIN_VERSION: 1.0
 PLUGIN_STATUS: ACTIVE
 PLUGIN_TYPE: STORAGE ENGINE
 PLUGIN_TYPE_VERSION: 100003.0
 PLUGIN_LIBRARY: NULL
PLUGIN_LIBRARY_VERSION: NULL
 PLUGIN_AUTHOR: MySQL AB
 PLUGIN_DESCRIPTION: Hash based, stored in memory, useful
for temporary tables
 PLUGIN_LICENSE: GPL
 LOAD_OPTION: FORCE
 PLUGIN_MATURITY: Stable
 PLUGIN_AUTH_VERSION: 1.0
...
 
If a plugin's PLUGIN_LIBRARY column has the NULL value,
then the plugin is built-in, and it cannot be uninstalled.
 
Querying Plugin Information with mysql.plugin
 
The mysql.plugin table can be queried to get information
about installed plugins.
 
This table only contains information about plugins that have
been installed via the following methods:
The INSTALL SONAME statement.
The INSTALL PLUGIN statement.
The mysql_plugin utility.
 
This table does not contain information about:
Built-in plugins.
Plugins loaded with the --plugin-load-add option.
Plugins loaded with the --plugin-load option.
 
This table only contains enough information to reload the
plugin when the server is restarted, which means it only
contains the plugin name and the plugin library.
 
For example:
 
SELECT * FROM mysql.plugin;
 
+------+------------+
| name | dl |
+------+------------+
| PBXT | libpbxt.so |
+------+------------+
 
Installing a Plugin
 
There are three primary ways to install a plugin:
A plugin can be installed dynamically with an SQL statement.
A plugin can be installed with a mysqld option, but it
requires a server restart.
A plugin can be installed with the mysql_plugin utility,
while the server is completely offline.
 
When you are installing a plugin, you also have to ensure
that:
The server's plugin directory is properly configured, and
the plugin's library is in the plugin directory.
The server's minimum plugin maturity is properly
configured, and the plugin is mature enough to be installed.
 
Installing a Plugin Dynamically
 
A plugin can be installed dynamically by executing either
the INSTALL SONAME or the INSTALL PLUGIN statement.
 
If a plugin is installed with one of these statements, then
a record will be added to the mysql.plugins table for the
plugin. This means that the plugin will automatically be
loaded every time the server restarts, unless specifically
uninstalled or deactivated.
 
Installing a Plugin with INSTALL SONAME
 
You can install a plugin dynamically by executing the
INSTALL SONAME statement. INSTALL SONAME installs all
plugins from the given plugin library. This could be
required for some plugin libraries.
 
For example, to install all plugins in the server_audit
plugin library (which is currently only the server_audit
audit plugin), you could execute the following:
 
INSTALL SONAME 'server_audit';
 
Installing a Plugin with INSTALL PLUGIN
 
You can install a plugin dynamically by executing the
INSTALL PLUGIN statement. INSTALL PLUGIN installs a single
plugin from the given plugin library.
 
For example, to install the server_audit audit plugin from
the server_audit plugin library, you could execute the
following:
 
INSTALL PLUGIN server_audit SONAME 'server_audit';
 
Installing a Plugin with Plugin Load Options
 
A plugin can be installed with a mysqld option by providing
either the --plugin-load-add or the --plugin-load option.
 
If a plugin is installed with one of these options, then a
record will not be added to the mysql.plugins table for the
plugin. This means that if the server is restarted without
the same option set, then the plugin will not automatically
be loaded.
 
Installing a Plugin with --plugin-load-add
 
You can install a plugin with the --plugin-load-add option
by specifying the option as a command-line argument to
mysqld or by specifying the option in a relevant server
option group in an option file.
 
The --plugin-load-add option uses the following format:
Plugins can be specified in the format name=library, where
name is the plugin name and library is the plugin library.
This format installs a single plugin from the given plugin
library.
Plugins can also be specified in the format library, where
library is the plugin library. This format installs all
plugins from the given plugin library.
Multiple plugins can be specified by separating them with
semicolons.
 
For example, to install all plugins in the server_audit
plugin library (which is currently only the server_audit
audit plugin) and also the ed25519 authentication plugin
from the auth_ed25519 plugin library, you could set the
option to the following values on the command-line:
 
$ mysqld --user=mysql --plugin-load-add='server_audit'
--plugin-load-add='ed25519=auth_ed25519'
 
You could also set the option to the same values in an
option file:
 
[mariadb]
...
plugin_load_add = server_audit
plugin_load_add = ed25519=auth_ed25519
 
Special care must be taken when specifying both the
--plugin-load option and the --plugin-load-add option
together. The --plugin-load option resets the plugin load
list, and this can cause unexpected problems if you are not
aware. The --plugin-load-add option does not reset the
plugin load list, so it is much safer to use. See Specifying
Multiple Plugin Load Options for more information.
 
Installing a Plugin with --plugin-load
 
You can install a plugin with the --plugin-load option by
specifying the option as a command-line argument to mysqld
or by specifying the option in a relevant server option
group in an option file.
 
The --plugin-load option uses the following format:
Plugins can be specified in the format name=library, where
name is the plugin name and library is the plugin library.
This format installs a single plugin from the given plugin
library.
Plugins can also be specified in the format library, where
library is the plugin library. This format installs all
plugins from the given plugin library.
Multiple plugins can be specified by separating them with
semicolons.
 
For example, to install all plugins in the server_audit
plugin library (which is currently only the server_audit
audit plugin) and also the ed25519 authentication plugin
from the auth_ed25519 plugin library, you could set the
option to the following values on the command-line:
 
$ mysqld --user=mysql
--plugin-load='server_�����`audit;ed25519=auth_ed25519'
 
You could also set the option to the same values in an
option file:
 
[mariadb]
...
plugin_load = server_audit;ed25519=auth_ed25519
 
Special care must be taken when specifying the --plugin-load
option multiple times, or when specifying both the
--plugin-load option and the --plugin-load-add option
together. The --plugin-load option resets the plugin load
list, and this can cause unexpected problems if you are not
aware. The --plugin-load-add option does not reset the
plugin load list, so it is much safer to use. See Specifying
Multiple Plugin Load Options for more information.
 
Specifying Multiple Plugin Load Options
 
Special care must be taken when specifying the --plugin-load
option multiple times, or when specifying both the
--plugin-load option and the --plugin-load-add option. The
--plugin-load option resets the plugin load list, and this
can cause unexpected problems if you are not aware. The
--plugin-load-add option does not reset the plugin load
list, so it is much safer to use.
 
This can have the following consequences:
If the --plugin-load option is specified multiple times,
then only the last instance will have any effect. For
example, in the following case, the first instance of the
option is reset:
 
[mariadb]
...
plugin_load = server_audit
plugin_load = ed25519=auth_ed25519
If the --plugin-load option is specified after the
--plugin-load-add option, then it will also reset the
changes made by that option. For example, in the following
case, the --plugin-load-add option does not do anything,
because the subsequent --plugin-load option resets the
plugin load list:
 
[mariadb]
...
plugin_load_add = server_audit
plugin_load = ed25519=auth_ed25519
In contrast, if the --plugin-load option is specified before
the --plugin-load-add option, then it will work fine,
because the --plugin-load-add option does not reset the
plugin load list. For example, in the following case, both
plugins are properly loaded:
 
[mariadb]
...
plugin_load = server_audit
plugin_load_add = ed25519=auth_ed25519
 
Installing a Plugin with mysql_plugin
 
A plugin can be installed with the mysql_plugin utility if
the server is completely offline. 
 
The syntax is:
 
mysql_plugin [options] 
 ENABLE|DISABLE
 
For example, to install the server_audit audit plugin, you
could execute the following:
 
mysql_plugin server_audit ENABLE
 
If a plugin is installed with this utility, then a record
will be added to the mysql.plugins table for the plugin.
This means that the plugin will automatically be loaded
every time the server restarts, unless specifically
uninstalled or deactivated.
 
Configuring the Plugin Directory
 
When a plugin is being installed, the server looks for the
plugin's library in the server's plugin directory. This
directory is configured by the plugin_dir system variable.
This can be specified as a command-line argument to mysqld
or it can be specified in a relevant server option group in
an option file. For example:
 
[mariadb]
...
plugin_dir = /usr/lib64/mysql/plugin
 
Configuring the Minimum Plugin Maturity
 
When a plugin is being installed, the server compares the
plugin's maturity level against the server's minimum
allowed plugin maturity. This can help prevent users from
using unstable plugins on production servers. This minimum
plugin maturity is configured by the plugin_maturity system
variable. This can be specified as a command-line argument
to mysqld or it can be specified in a relevant server option
group in an option file. For example:
 
[mariadb]
...
plugin_maturity = stable
 
Configuring Plugin Activation at Server Startup
 
A plugin will be loaded by default when the server starts
if:
The plugin was installed with the INSTALL SONAME statement.
The plugin was installed with the INSTALL PLUGIN statement.
The plugin was installed with the mysql_plugin utility.
The server is configured to load the plugin with the
--plugin-load-add option.
The server is configured to load the plugin with the
--plugin-load option.
 
This behavior can be changed with special options that take
the form --plugin-name. For example, for the server_audit
audit plugin, the special option is called --server-audit.
 
The possible values for these special options are:
 
Option Value | Description | 
 
OFF | Disables the plugin without removing it from the
mysql.plugins table. | 
 
ON | Enables the plugin. If the plugin cannot be
initialized, then the server will still continue starting
up, but the plugin will be disabled. | 
 
FORCE | Enables the plugin. If the plugin cannot be
initialized, then the server will fail to start with an
error. | 
 
FORCE_PLUS_PERMANENT | Enables the plugin. If the plugin
cannot be initialized, then the server will fail to start
with an error. In addition, the plugin cannot be uninstalled
with UNINSTALL SONAME or UNINSTALL PLUGIN while the server
is running. | 
 
A plugin's status can be found by looking at the
PLUGIN_STATUS column of the information_schema.PLUGINS
table.
 
Uninstalling Plugins
 
Plugins that are found in the mysql.plugin table, that is
those that were installed with INSTALL SONAME, INSTALL
PLUGIN or mysql_plugin can be uninstalled in one of two
ways:
The UNINSTALL SONAME or the UNINSTALL PLUGIN statement while
the server is running
With mysql_plugin while the server is offline.
 
Plugins that were enabled as a --plugin-load option do not
need to be uninstalled. If --plugin-load is omitted the next
time the server starts, or the plugin is not listed as one
of the --plugin-load entries, the plugin will not be loaded.
 
UNINSTALL PLUGIN uninstalls a single installed plugin, while
UNINSTALL SONAME uninstalls all plugins belonging to a given
library.

only "real" storage engine that supports external XA
transactions enabled on these builds by default is InnoDB.
Therefore, when using one these builds MariaDB would be
forced to use a transaction coordinator log by default,
which could have performance implications.

The relay_log_info_file system variable can be set either on
the command-line or in a server option group in an option
file prior to starting up the server. For example:
 
[mariadb]
...
relay_log_info_file=/mariadb/myserver1-relay-log.info
 
GTID Persistence
 
If the slave is replicating binary log events that contain
GTIDs, then the slave's SQL thread will write every GTID
that it applies to the mysql.gtid_slave_pos table. This GTID
can be inspected and modified through the gtid_slave_pos
system variable.
 
If the slave has the log_slave_updates system variable
enabled and if the slave has the binary log enabled, then
every write by the slave's SQL thread will also go into the
slave's binary log. This means that GTIDs of replicated
transactions would be reflected in the value of the
gtid_binlog_pos system variable.
 
Creating a Slave from a Backup
 
The CHANGE MASTER statement is useful for setting up a slave
when you have a backup of the master and you also have the
binary log position or GTID position corresponding to the
backup.
 
After restoring the backup on the slave, you could execute
something like this to use the binary log position:
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_LOG_FILE='master2-bin.001',
 MASTER_LOG_POS=4;
 
START SLAVE;
 
Or you could execute something like this to use the GTID
position:
 
SET GLOBAL gtid_slave_pos='0-1-153';
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_USE_GTID=slave_pos;
 
START SLAVE;
 
See Setting up a Replication Slave with Mariabackup for more
information on how to do this with Mariabackup.
 
Example
 
The following example changes the master and master's
binary log coordinates.
This is used when you want to set up the slave to replicate
the master:
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_HOST='master2.mycompany.com',
 MASTER_USER='replication',
 MASTER_PASSWORD='bigs3cret',
 MASTER_PORT=3306,
 MASTER_LOG_FILE='master2-bin.001',
 MASTER_LOG_POS=4,
 MASTER_CONNECT_RETRY=10;
 
START SLAVE;

ALTER TABLE mysql.procs_priv MODIFY Grantor CHAR(141)
COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.tables_priv MODIFY Grantor CHAR(141)
COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
 
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
 
Anonymous Accounts
 
Anonymous accounts are accounts where the user name portion
of the account name is empty. These accounts act as special
catch-all accounts. If a user attempts to log into the
system from a host, and an anonymous account exists with a
host name portion that matches the user's host, then the
user will log in as the anonymous account if there is no
more specific account match for the user name that the user
entered.
 
For example, here are some anonymous accounts:
 
CREATE USER ''@'localhost';
 
CREATE USER ''@'192.168.0.3';
 
Fixing a Legacy Default Anonymous Account
 
On some systems, the mysql.db table has some entries for the
''@'%' anonymous account by default. Unfortunately,
there is no matching entry in the mysql.user table, which
means that this anonymous account doesn't exactly exist,
but it does have privileges--usually on the default test
database created by mysql_install_db. These account-less
privileges are a legacy that is leftover from a time when
MySQL's privilege system was less advanced.
 
This situation means that you will run into errors if you
try to create a ''@'%' account. For example:
 
CREATE USER ''@'%';
 
ERROR 1396 (HY000): Operation CREATE USER failed for
''@'%'
 
The fix is to DELETE the row in the mysql.db table and then
execute FLUSH PRIVILEGES:
 
DELETE FROM mysql.db WHERE User='' AND Host='%';
 
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
 
And then the account can be created:
 
CREATE USER ''@'%';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
 
See MDEV-13486 for more information.
 
Password Expiry
 
Besides automatic password expiry, as determined by
default_password_lifetime, password expiry times can be set
on an individual user basis, overriding the global setting,
for example:
 
CREATE USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE INTERVAL
120 DAY;
 
See User Password Expiry for more details.
 
Account Locking
 
Account locking permits privileged administrators to
lock/unlock user accounts. No new client connections will be
permitted if an account is locked (existing connections are
not affected). For example:
 
CREATE USER 'marijn'@'localhost' ACCOUNT LOCK;
 
See Account Locking for more details.

------ 
UNINSTALL PLUGIN [IF EXISTS] plugin_name
 
Description
----------- 
This statement removes a single installed plugin. To
uninstall the whole library which contains the plugin, use
UNINSTALL SONAME. You cannot uninstall a plugin if any table
that uses it is open.
 
plugin_name must be the name of some plugin that is listed
in the mysql.plugin table. The server executes the plugin's
deinitialization
function and removes the row for the plugin from the
mysql.plugin
table, so that subsequent server restarts will not load and
initialize
the plugin. UNINSTALL PLUGIN does not remove the plugin's
shared library file.
 
To use UNINSTALL PLUGIN, you must have the
DELETE privilege for the mysql.plugin table.
 
IF EXISTS
 
If the IF EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a note
instead of an error if the plugin does not exist. See SHOW
WARNINGS.

Syntax
------ 
INSTALL SONAME 'plugin_library'
 
Description
----------- 
This statement is a variant of INSTALL PLUGIN. It installs
all plugins from a given plugin_library. See INSTALL PLUGIN
for details.
 
plugin_library is the name of the shared library that
contains the plugin code. The file name extension (for
example, libmyplugin.so or libmyplugin.dll) can be omitted
(which makes the statement look the same on all
architectures).
 
The shared library must be located in the plugin directory
(that is,
the directory named by the plugin_dir system variable). The
library must be in the plugin directory itself, not in a
subdirectory. By
default, plugin_dir is plugin directory under the directory
named by
the pkglibdir configuration variable, but it can be changed
by setting
the value of plugin_dir at server startup. For example, set
its value in a my.cnf file:
 
[mysqld]
plugin_dir=/path/to/plugin/directory
If the value of plugin_dir is a relative path name, it is
taken to be relative to the MySQL base directory (the value
of the basedir
system variable).
 
INSTALL SONAME adds one or more lines to the mysql.plugin
table that
describes the plugin. This table contains the plugin name
and library file
name.
 
INSTALL SONAME causes the server to read
option (my.cnf) files just as during server startup. This
enables the plugin to
pick up any relevant options from those files. It is
possible to add plugin
options to an option file even before loading a plugin (if
the loose prefix is
used). It is also possible to uninstall a plugin, edit
my.cnf, and install the
plugin again. Restarting the plugin this way enables it to
the new option
values without a server restart.
 
INSTALL SONAME also loads and initializes the plugin code to
make the plugin available for use. A plugin is initialized
by executing its
initialization function, which handles any setup that the
plugin must perform
before it can be used.
 
To use INSTALL SONAME, you must have the
INSERT privilege for the mysql.plugin table.
 
At server startup, the server loads and initializes any
plugin that is
listed in the mysql.plugin table. This means that a plugin
is installed
with INSTALL SONAME only once, not every time the server
starts. Plugin loading at startup does not occur if the
server is started with
the --skip-grant-tables option.
 
When the server shuts down, it executes the deinitialization
function
for each plugin that is loaded so that the plugin has a
chance to
perform any final cleanup.
 
If you need to load plugins for a single server startup when
the
--skip-grant-tables option is given (which tells the server
not to read system tables), use the 
--plugin-load mysqld option.
 
If you need to install only one plugin from a library, use
the INSTALL PLUGIN statement.
 
Examples
-------- 
To load the XtraDB storage engine and all of its
information_schema tables with one statement, use
 
INSTALL SONAME 'ha_xtradb';
 
This statement can be used instead of INSTALL PLUGIN even
when the library contains only one plugin:
 
INSTALL SONAME 'ha_sequence';

Description
----------- 
The CHANGE MASTER statement sets the options that a
replication slave uses to connect to and replicate from a
replication master. 
 
MariaDB until 10.0.7
 
In MariaDB 10.0.7 and before, the relay_log_purge system
variable was silently set to 0 when CHANGE MASTER was
executed.
 
Multi-Source Replication
 
Multi-source replication was added in MariaDB 10.0.1.
 
If you are using multi-source replication, then you need to
specify a connection name when you execute CHANGE MASTER.
There are two ways to do this:
Setting the default_master_connection system variable prior
to executing CHANGE MASTER.
Setting the connection_name parameter when executing CHANGE
MASTER.
 
default_master_connection
 
SET default_master_connection = 'gandalf';
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 MASTER_PASSWORD='new3cret';
 
START SLAVE;
 
connection_name
 
STOP SLAVE 'gandalf';
 
CHANGE MASTER 'gandalf' TO 
 MASTER_PASSWORD='new3cret';
 
START SLAVE 'gandalf';
 
Options
 
Connection Options
 
MASTER_USER
 
The MASTER_USER option for CHANGE MASTER defines the user
account that the replication slave will use to connect to
the replication master.
 
This user account will need the REPLICATION SLAVE privilege
on the master.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_USER='repl',
 MASTER_PASSWORD='new3cret';
 
START SLAVE;
 
MASTER_PASSWORD
 
The MASTER_USER option for CHANGE MASTER defines the
password that the replication slave will use to connect to
the replication master as the user account defined by the
MASTER_USER option.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 MASTER_PASSWORD='new3cret';
 
START SLAVE;
 
MASTER_HOST
 
The MASTER_HOST option for CHANGE MASTER defines the
hostname or IP address of the replication master.
 
If you set the value of the MASTER_HOST option to the empty
string, then that is not the same as not setting the
option's value at all. In MariaDB 5.5 and later, if you set
the value of the MASTER_HOST option to the empty string,
then the CHANGE MASTER command will fail with an error. In
MariaDB 5.3 and before, if you set the value of the
MASTER_HOST option to the empty string, then the CHANGE
MASTER command would succeed, but the subsequent START SLAVE
command would fail.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_HOST='dbserver1.example.com',
 MASTER_USER='repl',
 MASTER_PASSWORD='new3cret',
 MASTER_USE_GTID=slave_pos;
 
START SLAVE;
 
If you set the value of the MASTER_HOST option in a CHANGE
MASTER command, then the slave assumes that the master is
different from before, even if you set the value of this
option to the same value it had previously. In this
scenario, the slave will consider the old values for the
master's binary
log file name and position to be invalid for the new master.
As a side effect, if you do not explicitly set the values of
the MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS options in the
statement, then the statement will be implicitly appended
with MASTER_LOG_FILE='' and MASTER_LOG_POS=4. However, if
you enable GTID mode for replication by setting the
MASTER_USE_GTID option to some value other than no in the
statement, then these values will effectively be ignored
anyway.
 
Replication slaves cannot connect to replication masters
using Unix socket files or Windows named pipes. The
replication slave must connect to the replication master
using TCP/IP.
 
MASTER_PORT
 
The MASTER_PORT option for CHANGE MASTER defines the TCP/IP
port of the replication master.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_HOST='dbserver1.example.com',
 MASTER_PORT=3307,
 MASTER_USER='repl',
 MASTER_PASSWORD='new3cret',
 MASTER_USE_GTID=slave_pos;
 
START SLAVE;
 
If you set the value of the MASTER_PORT option in a CHANGE
MASTER command, then the slave assumes that the master is
different from before, even if you set the value of this
option to the same value it had previously. In this
scenario, the slave will consider the old values for the
master's binary
log file name and position to be invalid for the new master.
As a side effect, if you do not explicitly set the values of
the MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS options in the
statement, then the statement will be implicitly appended
with MASTER_LOG_FILE='' and MASTER_LOG_POS=4. However, if
you enable GTID mode for replication by setting the
MASTER_USE_GTID option to some value other than no in the
statement, then these values will effectively be ignored
anyway.
 
Replication slaves cannot connect to replication masters
using Unix socket files or Windows named pipes. The
replication slave must connect to the replication master
using TCP/IP.
 
MASTER_CONNECT_RETRY
 
The MASTER_CONNECT_RETRY option for CHANGE MASTER defines
how many seconds that the slave will wait between connection
retries. The default is 60.
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 MASTER_CONNECT_RETRY=20;
 
START SLAVE;
 
The number of connection attempts is limited by the
master_retry_count option. It can be set either on the
command-line or in a server option group in an option file
prior to starting up the server. For example:
 
[mariadb]
...
master_retry_count=4294967295
 
MASTER_BIND
 
The MASTER_BIND option for CHANGE MASTER is only supported
by MySQL 5.6.2 and later and by MySQL NDB Cluster 7.3.1 and
later. This option is not yet supported by MariaDB. See
MDEV-19248 for more information.
 
The MASTER_BIND option for CHANGE MASTER can be used on
replication slaves that have multiple network interfaces to
choose which network interface the slave will use to connect
to the master.
 
MASTER_HEARTBEAT_PERIOD
 
The MASTER_HEARTBEAT_PERIOD option for CHANGE MASTER can be
used to set the interval in seconds between replication
heartbeats. Whenever the master's binary log is updated
with an event, the waiting period for the next heartbeat is
reset.
 
This option's interval argument has the following
characteristics:
It is a decimal value with a range of 0 to 4294967 seconds.
It has a resolution of hundredths of a second.
Its smallest valid non-zero value is 0.001.
Its default value is the value of the slave_net_timeout
system variable divided by 2.
If it's set to 0, then heartbeats are disabled.
 
Heartbeats are sent by the master only if there are no
unsent events in the binary log file for a period longer
than the interval.
 
If the RESET SLAVE statement is executed, then the heartbeat
interval is reset to the default.
 
If the slave_net_timeout system variable is set to a value
that is lower than the current heartbeat interval, then a
warning will be issued.
 
TLS Options
 
The TLS options are used for providing information about
TLS. The options can be set even on slaves that are compiled
without TLS support. The TLS options are saved to either the
default master.info file or the file that is configured by
the master_info_file option, but these TLS options are
ignored unless the slave supports TLS.
 
See Replication with Secure Connections for more
information.
 
MASTER_SSL
 
The MASTER_SSL option for CHANGE MASTER tells the slave
whether to force TLS for the connection. The valid values
are 0 or 1.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_SSL=1;
 
START SLAVE;
 
MASTER_SSL_CA
 
The MAST)m�ER_SSL_CA option for CHANGE MASTER defines a path to
a PEM file that should contain one or more X509 certificates
for trusted Certificate Authorities (CAs) to use for TLS.
This option requires that you use the absolute path, not a
relative path. This option implies the MASTER_SSL option.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_SSL_CERT='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-cert.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_KEY='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-key.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_CA='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/ca.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT=1;
 
START SLAVE;
 
See Secure Connections Overview: Certificate Authorities
(CAs) for more information.
 
MASTER_SSL_CAPATH
 
The MASTER_SSL_CAPATH option for CHANGE MASTER defines a
path to a directory that contains one or more PEM files that
should each contain one X509 certificate for a trusted
Certificate Authority (CA) to use for TLS. This option
requires that you use the absolute path, not a relative
path. The directory specified by this option needs to be run
through the openssl rehash command. This option implies the
MASTER_SSL option.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_SSL_CERT='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-cert.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_KEY='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-key.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_CAPATH='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/ca/',
 MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT=1;
 
START SLAVE;
 
See Secure Connections Overview: Certificate Authorities
(CAs) for more information.
 
MASTER_SSL_CERT
 
The MASTER_SSL_CERT option for CHANGE MASTER defines a path
to the X509 certificate file to use for TLS. This option
requires that you use the absolute path, not a relative
path. This option implies the MASTER_SSL option.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_SSL_CERT='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-cert.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_KEY='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-key.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_CA='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/ca.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT=1;
 
START SLAVE;
 
MASTER_SSL_CRL
 
The MASTER_SSL_CRL option for CHANGE MASTER defines a path
to a PEM file that should contain one or more revoked X509
certificates to use for TLS. This option requires that you
use the absolute path, not a relative path.
 
This option is only supported if the server was built with
OpenSSL. If the server was built with yaSSL, then this
option is not supported. See TLS and Cryptography Libraries
Used by MariaDB for more information about which libraries
are used on which platforms.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_SSL_CERT='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-cert.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_KEY='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-key.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_CA='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/ca.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT=1,
 MASTER_SSL_CRL='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/crl.pem';
 
START SLAVE;
 
See Secure Connections Overview: Certificate Revocation
Lists (CRLs) for more information.
 
MASTER_SSL_CRLPATH
 
The MASTER_SSL_CRLPATH option for CHANGE MASTER defines a
path to a directory that contains one or more PEM files that
should each contain one revoked X509 certificate to use for
TLS. This option requires that you use the absolute path,
not a relative path. The directory specified by this
variable needs to be run through the openssl rehash command.
 
This option is only supported if the server was built with
OpenSSL. If the server was built with yaSSL, then this
option is not supported. See TLS and Cryptography Libraries
Used by MariaDB for more information about which libraries
are used on which platforms.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_SSL_CERT='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-cert.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_KEY='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-key.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_CA='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/ca.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT=1,
 MASTER_SSL_CRLPATH='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/crl/';
 
START SLAVE;
 
See Secure Connections Overview: Certificate Revocation
Lists (CRLs) for more information.
 
MASTER_SSL_KEY
 
The MASTER_SSL_KEY option for CHANGE MASTER defines a path
to a private key file to use for TLS. This option requires
that you use the absolute path, not a relative path. This
option implies the MASTER_SSL option.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_SSL_CERT='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-cert.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_KEY='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-key.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_CA='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/ca.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT=1;
 
START SLAVE;
 
MASTER_SSL_CIPHER
 
The MASTER_SSL_CIPHER option for CHANGE MASTER defines the
list of permitted ciphers or cipher suites to use for TLS.
Besides cipher names, if MariaDB was compiled with OpenSSL,
this option could be set to "SSLv3" or "TLSv1.2" to
allow all SSLv3 or all TLSv1.2 ciphers. Note that the
TLSv1.3 ciphers cannot be excluded when using OpenSSL, even
by using this option. See Using TLSv1.3 for details. This
option implies the MASTER_SSL option.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_SSL_CERT='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-cert.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_KEY='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-key.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_CA='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/ca.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT=1,
 MASTER_SSL_CIPHER='TLSv1.2';
 
START SLAVE;
 
MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT
 
The MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT option for CHANGE MASTER
enables server certificate verification. This option is
disabled by default.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_SSL_CERT='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-cert.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_KEY='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/server-key.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_CA='/etc/my.cnf.d/certificates/ca.pem',
 MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT=1;
 
START SLAVE;
 
See Secure Connections Overview: Server Certificate
Verification for more information.
 
Binary Log Options
 
These options are related to the binary log position on the
master.
 
MASTER_LOG_FILE
 
The MASTER_LOG_FILE option for CHANGE MASTER can be used
along with MASTER_LOG_POS to specify the coordinates at
which the slave's I/O thread should begin reading from the
master's binary logs the next time the thread starts.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_LOG_FILE='master2-bin.001',
 MASTER_LOG_POS=4;
 
START SLAVE;
 
The MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS options cannot be
specified if the RELAY_LOG_FILE and RELAY_LOG_POS options
were also specified.
 
The MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS options are
effectively ignored if you enable GTID mode for replication
by setting the MASTER_USE_GTID option to some value other
than no in the statement.
 
MASTER_LOG_POS
 
The MASTER_LOG_POS option for CHANGE MASTER can be used
along with MASTER_LOG_FILE to specify the coordinates at
which the slave's I/O thread should begin reading from the
master's binary logs the next time the thread starts.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_LOG_FILE='master2-bin.001',
 MASTER_LOG_POS=4;
 
START SLAVE;
 
The MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS options cannot be
specified if the RELAY_LOG_FILE and RELAY_LOG_POS options
were also specified.
 
The MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS options are
effectively ignored if you enable GTID mode for replication
by setting the MASTER_USE_GTID option to some value other
than no in the statement.
 
Relay Log Options
 
These options are related to the relay log position on the
slave.
 
RELAY_LOG_FILE
 
The RELAY_LOG_FILE option for CHANGE MASTER can be used
along with the RELAY_LOG_POS option to specify the
coordinates at which the slave's SQL thread should begin
reading from the relay log the next time the thread starts.
 
The CHANGE MASTER statement usually deletes all relay log
files. However, if the RELAY_LOG_FILE and/or RELAY_LOG_POS
options are specified, then existing relay log files are
kept.
 
When you want to change the relay log position, you only
need to stop the slave's SQL thread. The slave's I/O
thread can continue running. The STOP SLAVE and START SLAVE
statements support the SQL_THREAD option for this scenario.
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE SQL_THREAD;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 RELAY_LOG_FILE='slave-relay-bin.006',
 RELAY_LOG_POS=4025;
 
START SLAVE SQL_THREAD;
 
When the value of this option is changed, theuT�: metadata about
the slave's SQL thread's position in the relay logs will
also be changed in the relay-log.info file or the file that
is configured by the relay_log_info_file system variable.
 
The RELAY_LOG_FILE and RELAY_LOG_POS options cannot be
specified if the MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS options
were also specified.
 
RELAY_LOG_POS
 
The RELAY_LOG_POS option for CHANGE MASTER can be used along
with the RELAY_LOG_FILE option to specify the coordinates at
which the slave's SQL thread should begin reading from the
relay log the next time the thread starts.
 
The CHANGE MASTER statement usually deletes all relay log
files. However, if the RELAY_LOG_FILE and/or RELAY_LOG_POS
options are specified, then existing relay log files are
kept.
 
When you want to change the relay log position, you only
need to stop the slave's SQL thread. The slave's I/O
thread can continue running. The STOP SLAVE and START SLAVE
statements support the SQL_THREAD option for this scenario.
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE SQL_THREAD;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 RELAY_LOG_FILE='slave-relay-bin.006',
 RELAY_LOG_POS=4025;
 
START SLAVE SQL_THREAD;
 
When the value of this option is changed, the metadata about
the slave's SQL thread's position in the relay logs will
also be changed in the relay-log.info file or the file that
is configured by the relay_log_info_file system variable.
 
The RELAY_LOG_FILE and RELAY_LOG_POS options cannot be
specified if the MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS options
were also specified.
 
GTID Options
 
MASTER_USE_GTID
 
The MASTER_USE_GTID option for CHANGE MASTER was first added
in MariaDB 10.0.2 to enable replication with Global
Transaction IDs (GTIDs).
 
The MASTER_USE_GTID option for CHANGE MASTER can be used to
configure the slave to use the global transaction ID (GTID)
when connecting to a master. The possible values are:
current_pos - Replicate in GTID mode and use
gtid_current_pos as the position to start downloading
transactions from the master.
slave_pos - Replicate in GTID mode and use gtid_slave_pos as
the position to start downloading transactions from the
master.
no - Don't replicate in GTID mode.
 
For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_USE_GTID = current_pos;
 
START SLAVE;
 
Or:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
SET GLOBAL gtid_slave_pos='0-1-153';
 
CHANGE MASTER TO
 MASTER_USE_GTID = slave_pos;
 
START SLAVE;
 
Replication Filter Options
 
IGNORE_SERVER_IDS
 
The IGNORE_SERVER_IDS option for CHANGE MASTER can be used
to configure a replication slave to ignore binary log events
that originated from certain servers. Filtered binary log
events will not get logged to the slave’s relay log, and
they will not be applied by the slave.
 
The option's value can be specified by providing a
comma-separated list of server_id values. For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 IGNORE_SERVER_IDS = (3,5);
START SLAVE;
 
If you would like to clear a previously set list, then you
can set the value to an empty list. For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 IGNORE_SERVER_IDS = ();
START SLAVE;
 
DO_DOMAIN_IDS
 
The DO_DOMAIN_IDS option for CHANGE MASTER was first added
in MariaDB 10.1.2.
 
The DO_DOMAIN_IDS option for CHANGE MASTER can be used to
configure a replication slave to only apply binary log
events if the transaction's GTID is in a specific
gtid_domain_id value. Filtered binary log events will not
get logged to the slave’s relay log, and they will not be
applied by the slave.
 
The option's value can be specified by providing a
comma-separated list of gtid_domain_id values. Duplicate
values are automatically ignored. For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 DO_DOMAIN_IDS = (1,2);
START SLAVE;
 
If you would like to clear a previously set list, then you
can set the value to an empty list. For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 DO_DOMAIN_IDS = ();
START SLAVE;
 
The DO_DOMAIN_IDS option and the IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS option
cannot both be set to non-empty values at the same time. If
you want to set the DO_DOMAIN_IDS option, and the
IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS option was previously set, then you need
to clear the value of the IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS option. For
example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS = (), 
 DO_DOMAIN_IDS = (1,2);
START SLAVE;
 
The DO_DOMAIN_IDS option can only be specified if the slave
is replicating in GTID mode. Therefore, the MASTER_USE_GTID
option must also be set to some value other than no in order
to use this option.
 
IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS
 
The IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS option for CHANGE MASTER was first
added in MariaDB 10.1.2.
 
The IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS option for CHANGE MASTER can be used
to configure a replication slave to ignore binary log events
if the transaction's GTID is in a specific gtid_domain_id
value. Filtered binary log events will not get logged to the
slave’s relay log, and they will not be applied by the
slave.
 
The option's value can be specified by providing a
comma-separated list of gtid_domain_id values. Duplicate
values are automatically ignored. For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS = (1,2);
START SLAVE;
 
If you would like to clear a previously set list, then you
can set the value to an empty list. For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS = ();
START SLAVE;
 
The DO_DOMAIN_IDS option and the IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS option
cannot both be set to non-empty values at the same time. If
you want to set the IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS option, and the
DO_DOMAIN_IDS option was previously set, then you need to
clear the value of the DO_DOMAIN_IDS option. For example:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 DO_DOMAIN_IDS = (), 
 IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS = (1,2);
START SLAVE;
 
The IGNORE_DOMAIN_IDS option can only be specified if the
slave is replicating in GTID mode. Therefore, the
MASTER_USE_GTID option must also be set to some value other
than no in order to use this option.
 
Delayed Replication Options
 
MASTER_DELAY
 
The MASTER_DELAY option for CHANGE MASTER was first added in
MariaDB 10.2.3 to enable delayed replication.
 
The MASTER_DELAY option for CHANGE MASTER can be used to
enable delayed replication. This option specifies the time
in seconds (at least) that a replication slave should lag
behind the master. Before executing an event, the slave will
first wait, if necessary, until the given time has passed
since the event was created on the master. The result is
that the slave will reflect the state of the master some
time back in the past. The default is zero, no delay.
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 MASTER_DELAY=3600;
 
START SLAVE;
 
Changing Option Values
 
If you don't specify a given option when executing the
CHANGE MASTER statement, then the option keeps its old value
in most cases. Most of the time, there is no need to specify
the options that do not need to change. For example, if the
password for the user account that the slave uses to connect
to its master has changed, but no other options need to
change, then you can just change the MASTER_PASSWORD option
by executing the following commands:
 
STOP SLAVE;
 
CHANGE MASTER TO 
 MASTER_PASSWORD='new3cret';
 
START SLAVE;
 
There are some cases where options are implicitly reset,
such as when the MASTER_HOST and MASTER_PORT options are
changed.
 
Option Persistence
 
The values of the MASTER_LOG_FILE and MASTER_LOG_POS options
(i.e. the binary log position on the master) and most other
options are written to either the default master.info file
or the file that is configured by the master_info_file
option. The slave's I/O thread keeps this binary log
position updated as it downloads events only when
MASTER_USE_GTID option
 is set to NO. Otherwise the file is not updated on a per
event basis.
 
The master_info_file option can be set either on the
command-line or in a server option group in an option file
prior to starting up the server. For example:
 
[mariadb]
...
master_info_file=/mariadb/myserver1-master.info
 
The values of the RELAY_LOG_FILE and RELAY_LOG_POS options
(i.e. the relay log position) are written to either the
default relay-log.info file or the file that is configured
by the relay_log_info_file system variable. The slave's SQL
thread keeps this relay log ����
�c`�)COMMITThe COMMIT statement ends a transaction, saving any changes
to the data so that they become visible to subsequent
transactions. Also, unlocks metadata changed by current
transaction. If autocommit is set to 1, an implicit commit
is performed after each statement. Otherwise, all
transactions which don't end with an explicit COMMIT are
implicitly rollbacked and the changes are lost. The ROLLBACK
statement can be used to do this explicitly.
 
The required syntax for the COMMIT statement is as follows:
 
COMMIT [WORK] [AND [NO] CHAIN] [[NO] RELEASE]
 
COMMIT is the more important transaction terminator, as well
as the more interesting one. The basic form of the COMMIT
statement is simply the keyword COMMIT (the keyword WORK is
simply noise and can be omitted without changing the
effect).
 
The optional AND CHAIN clause is a convenience for
initiating a new transaction as soon as the old transaction
terminates. If AND CHAIN is specified, then there is
effectively nothing between the old and new transactions,
although they remain separate. The characteristics of the
new transaction will be the same as the characteristics of
the old one — that is, the new transaction will have the
same access mode, isolation level and diagnostics area size
(we'll discuss all of these shortly) as the transaction
just terminated. 
 
RELEASE tells the server to disconnect the client
immediately after the current transaction.
 
There are NO RELEASE and AND NO CHAIN options. By default,
commits do not RELEASE or CHAIN, but it's possible to
change this default behavior with the completion_type server
system variable. In this case, the AND NO CHAIN and NO
RELEASE options override the server default.

------ 
{DEALLOCATE | DROP} PREPARE stmt_name
 
Description
----------- 
To deallocate a prepared statement produced with PREPARE,
use a
DEALLOCATE PREPARE statement that refers to the prepared
statement
name.
 
A prepared statement is implicitly deallocated when a new
PREPARE command is issued. In that case, there is no need to
use DEALLOCATE.
 
Attempting to execute a prepared statement after
deallocating it
results in an error, as if it was not prepared at all:
 
ERROR 1243 (HY000): Unknown prepared statement handler
(stmt_name) given to EXECUTE
 
If the specified statement has not been PREPAREd, an error
similar to the following will be produced:
 
ERROR 1243 (HY000): Unknown prepared statement handler
(stmt_name) given to DEALLOCATE PREPARE
 
Example
 
See example in PREPARE.

------ 
EXECUTE stmt_name
 [USING expression[, expression] ...]
 
EXECUTE with expression as parameters was introduced in
MariaDB 10.2.3. Before that one could only use variables
(@var_name) as parameters.
 
Description
----------- 
After preparing a statement with PREPARE, you execute it
with an
EXECUTE statement that refers to the prepared statement
name. If the
prepared statement contains any parameter markers, you must
supply a
USING clause that lists user variables containing the values
to be
bound to the parameters. Parameter values can be supplied
only by user
variables, and the USING clause must name exactly as many
variables as
the number of parameter markers in the statement.
 
You can execute a given prepared statement multiple times,
passing
different variables to it or setting the variables to
different values
before each execution.
 
If the specified statement has not been PREPAREd, an error
similar to the following is produced:
 
ERROR 1243 (HY000): Unknown prepared statement handler
(stmt_name) given to EXECUTE
 
Example
 
See example in PREPARE.

------ 
SAVEPOINT identifier
ROLLBACK [WORK] TO [SAVEPOINT] identifier
RELEASE SAVEPOINT identifier
 
Description
----------- 
InnoDB supports the SQL statements SAVEPOINT,
ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT, RELEASE SAVEPOINT
and the optional WORK keyword for
ROLLBACK.
 
Each savepoint must have a legal MariaDB identifier. A
savepoint is a named sub-transaction.
 
Normally ROLLBACK undoes the changes performed by the whole
transaction. When used with the TO clause, it undoes the
changes performed after the specified savepoint, and erases
all subsequent savepoints. However, all locks that have been
acquired after the save point will survive. RELEASE
SAVEPOINT does not rollback or commit any changes, but
removes the specified savepoint.
 
When the execution of a trigger or a stored function begins,
it is not possible to use statements which reference a
savepoint which was defined from out of that stored program.
 
When a COMMIT (including implicit commits) or a ROLLBACK
statement (with no TO clause) is performed, they act on the
whole transaction, and all savepoints are removed.
 
Errors
 
If COMMIT or ROLLBACK is issued and no transaction was
started, no error is reported.
 
If SAVEPOINT is issued and no transaction was started, no
error is reported but no savepoint is created. When ROLLBACK
TO SAVEPOINT or RELEASE SAVEPOINT is called for a savepoint
that does not exist, an error like this is issued:
 
ERROR 1305 (42000): SAVEPOINT svp_name does not exist

X=UNLOCK TABLESSyntax
------ 
UNLOCK TABLES
 
Description
----------- 
UNLOCK TABLES explicitly releases any table locks held by
the
current session. See LOCK TABLES for more information.
 
In addition to releasing table locks acquired by the LOCK
TABLES statement, the UNLOCK TABLES statement also releases
the global read lock acquired by the FLUSH TABLES WITH READ
LOCK statement. The FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK statement is
very useful for performing backups. See FLUSH for more
information about FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK.

��&�R_Overview
 
The MariaDB XA implementation is based on the X/Open CAE
document Distributed Transaction Processing: The XA
Specification. This document is published by The Open Group
and available at
http://www.opengroup.org/public/pubs/catalog/c193.htm.
 
XA transactions are designed to allow distributed
transactions, where a transaction manager (the application)
controls a transaction which involves multiple resources.
Such resources are usually DBMSs, but could be resources of
any type. The whole set of required transactional operations
is called a global transaction. Each subset of operations
which involve a single resource is called a local
transaction. XA used a 2-phases commit (2PC). With the first
commit, the transaction manager tells each resource to
prepare an effective commit, and waits for a confirm
message. The changes are not still made effective at this
point. If any of the resources encountered an error, the
transaction manager will rollback the global transaction. If
all resources communicate that the first commit is
successful, the transaction manager can require a second
commit, which makes the changes effective.
 
In MariaDB, XA transactions can only be used with storage
engines that support them. At least InnoDB, TokuDB, SPIDER
and MyRocks support them. For InnoDB, XA transactions can be
disabled by setting the innodb_support_xa server system
variable to 0. 
 
Like regular transactions, XA transactions create metadata
locks on accessed tables.
 
XA transactions require REPEATABLE READ as a minimum
isolation level. However, distributed transactions should
always use SERIALIZABLE.
 
Trying to start more than one XA transaction at the same
time produces a 1400 error (SQLSTATE 'XAE09'). The same
error is produced when attempting to start an XA transaction
while a regular transaction is in effect. Trying to start a
regular transaction while an XA transaction is in effect
produces a 1399 error (SQLSTATE 'XAE07').
 
The statements that cause an implicit COMMIT for regular
transactions produce a 1400 error (SQLSTATE 'XAE09') if a
XA transaction is in effect.
 
Internal XA vs External XA
 
XA transactions are an overloaded term in MariaDB. If a
storage engine is XA-capable, it can mean one or both of
these:
It supports MariaDB's internal two-phase commit API. This
is transparent to the user. Sometimes this is called
"internal XA", since MariaDB's internal transaction
coordinator log can handle coordinating these transactions.
 
It supports XA transactions, with the XA START, XA PREPARE,
XA COMMIT, etc. statements. Sometimes this is called
"external XA", since it requires the use of an external
transaction coordinator to use this feature properly.
 
Transaction Coordinator Log
 
If you have two or more XA-capable storage engines enabled,
then a transaction coordinator log must be available.
 
There are currently two implementations of the transaction
coordinator log:
Binary log-based transaction coordinator log
Memory-mapped file-based transaction coordinator log
 
If the binary log is enabled on a server, then the server
will use the binary log-based transaction coordinator log.
Otherwise, it will use the memory-mapped file-based
transaction coordinator log.
 
See Transaction Coordinator Log for more information.
 
Syntax
------ 
XA {START|BEGIN} xid [JOIN|RESUME]
 
XA END xid [SUSPEND [FOR MIGRATE]]
 
XA PREPARE xid
 
XA COMMIT xid [ONE PHASE]
 
XA ROLLBACK xid
 
XA RECOVER [FORMAT=['RAW'|'SQL']]
 
xid: gtrid [, bqual [, formatID ]]
 
The interface to XA transactions is a set of SQL statements
starting with XA. Each statement changes a transaction's
state, determining which actions it can perform. A
transaction which does not exist is in the NON-EXISTING
state.
 
XA START (or BEGIN) starts a transaction and defines its xid
(a transaction identifier). The JOIN or RESUME keywords have
no effect. The new transaction will be in ACTIVE state.
 
The xid can have 3 components, though only the first one is
mandatory. gtrid is a quoted string representing a global
transaction identifier. bqual is a quoted string
representing a local transaction identifier. formatID is an
unsigned integer indicating the format used for the first
two components; if not specified, defaults to 1. MariaDB
does not interpret in any way these components, and only
uses them to identify a transaction. xids of transactions in
effect must be unique.
 
XA END declares that the specified ACTIVE transaction is
finished and it changes its state to IDLE. SUSPEND [FOR
MIGRATE] has no effect.
 
XA PREPARE prepares an IDLE transaction for commit, changing
its state to PREPARED. This is the first commit.
 
XA COMMIT definitely commits and terminates a transaction
which has already been PREPARED. If the ONE PHASE clause is
specified, this statements performs a 1-phase commit on an
IDLE transaction.
 
XA ROLLBACK rolls back and terminates an IDLE or PREPARED
transaction.
 
XA RECOVER shows information about all PREPARED
transactions.
 
When trying to execute an operation which is not allowed for
the transaction's current state, an error is produced:
 
XA COMMIT 'test' ONE PHASE;
 
ERROR 1399 (XAE07): XAER_RMFAIL: The command cannot be
executed when global transaction is in the ACTIVE state
 
XA COMMIT 'test2';
 
ERROR 1399 (XAE07): XAER_RMFAIL: The command cannot be
executed when global transaction is in the NON-EXISTING
state
 
XA RECOVER
 
The XA RECOVER statement shows information about all
transactions which are in the PREPARED state. It does not
matter which connection created the transaction: if it has
been PREPARED, it appears. But this does not mean that a
connection can commit or rollback a transaction which was
started by another connection. Note that transactions using
a 1-phase commit are never in the PREPARED state, so they
cannot be shown by XA RECOVER.
 
XA RECOVER produces four columns:
 
XA RECOVER;
 
+----------+--------------+--------------+------+
| formatID | gtrid_length | bqual_length | data |
+----------+--------------+--------------+------+
| 1 | 4 | 0 | test |
+----------+--------------+--------------+------+
 
You can use XA RECOVER FORMAT='SQL' to get the data in a
human readable
form that can be directly copy-pasted into XA COMMIT or XA
ROLLBACK. This is particularly useful for binary xid
generated by some transaction coordinators.
 
formatID is the formatID part of xid.
 
data are the gtrid and bqual parts of xid, concatenated.
 
gtrid_length and bqual_length are the lengths of gtrid and
bqual, respectevely.

Known Issues
 
MariaDB Galera Cluster
 
MariaDB Galera Cluster does not support XA transactions. See
MDEV-10532 for more information on that. The request to
implement that feature is being tracked at MDEV-17099.
 
However, MariaDB Galera Cluster builds include a built-in
plugin called wsrep. Prior to MariaDB 10.4.3, this plugin
was internally considered an XA-capable storage engine.
Consequently, these MariaDB Galera Cluster builds have
mu|�R�MariaDB 10.4 introduces a number of changes to the
authentication process, intended to make things easier and
more intuitive.
 
Overview
 
There are four main changes relating to authentication:
It is possible to use more than one authentication plugin
for each user account. For example, this can be useful to
slowly migrate users to the more secure ed25519
authentication plugin over time, while allowing the old
mysql_native_password authentication plugin as an
alternative for the transitional period.
The root@localhost user account created by mysql_install_db
is created with the ability to use two authentication
plugins.
First, it is configured to try to use the unix_socket
authentication plugin. This allows the the root@localhost
user to login without a password via the local Unix socket
file defined by the socket system variable, as long as the
login is attempted from a process owned by the operating
system root user account.
Second, if authentication fails with the unix_socket
authentication plugin, then it is configured to try to use
the mysql_native_password authentication plugin. However, an
invalid password is initially set, so in order to
authenticate this way, a password must be set with SET
PASSWORD.
However, just using the unix_socket authentication plugin
may be fine for many users, and it is very secure. You may
want to try going without password authentication to see how
well it works for you. Remember, the best way to keep your
password safe is not to have one!
 
All user accounts, passwords, and global privileges are now
stored in the mysql.global_priv table. The mysql.user table
still exists and has exactly the same set of columns as
before, but it’s now a view that references the
mysql.global_priv table. Tools that analyze the mysql.user
table should continue to workas before.
MariaDB 10.4 supports User Password Expiry, which is not
active by default.
 
Description
----------- 
As a result of the above changes, the open-for-everyone
all-powerful root account is finally gone. And installation
scripts will no longer demand that you “PLEASE REMEMBER TO
SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MariaDB root USER !”, because the
root account is securely created automatically.
 
Two all-powerful accounts are created by default — root
and the OS user that owns the data directory, typically
mysql. They are created as:
 
CREATE USER root@localhost IDENTIFIED VIA unix_socket OR
mysql_native_password USING 'invalid'
CREATE USER mysql@localhost IDENTIFIED VIA unix_socket OR
mysql_native_password USING 'invalid'
 
Using unix_socket means that if you are the system root
user, you can login as root@locahost without a password.
This technique was pioneered by Otto Kekäläinen in Debian
MariaDB packages and has been successfully used in Debian
since as early as MariaDB 10.0. 
 
It is based on a simple fact that asking the system root for
a password adds no extra security — root has full access
to all the data files and all process memory anyway. But not
asking for a password means, there is no root password to
forget (no need for the numerous tutorials on “how to
reset MariaDB root password”). And if you want to script
some tedious database work, there is no need to store the
root password in plain text for the scipt to use (no need
for debian-sys-maint user).
 
Still, some users may wish to log in as MariaDB root without
using sudo. Hence the old authentication method —
conventional MariaDB password — is still available. By
default it is disabled (“invalid” is not a valid
password hash), but one can set the password with a usual
SET PASSWORD statement. And still retain the password-less
access via sudo.
 
If you install MariaDB locally (say from a tarball, you
would not want to use sudo to be able to login. This is why
MariaDB creates a second all-powerful user with the same
name as a system user that owns the data directory. In local
(not system-wide) installations, this will be the user who
installed MariaDB — they automatically get convenient
password-less root-like access, because they can access all
the data files anyway.
 
Even if MariaDB is installed system-wide, you may not want
to run your database maintenance scripts as system root —
now you can run them as system mysql user. And you will know
that they will never destroy your entire system, even if you
make a typo in a shell script.
 
However, seasoned MariaDB DBAs who are used to the old ways
do need to makes some changes. See the examples below for
common tasks. 
 
Cookbook
 
After installing MariaDB system-wide the first thing
you’ve got used to doing is logging in into the
unprotected root account and protecting it, that is, setting
the root password:
 
$ sudo dnf install MariaDB-server
$ mysql -uroot
...
MariaDB> set password = password("XH4VmT3_jt");
 
This is not only unnecessary now, it will simply not work
— there is no unprotected root account. To login as root
use
 
$ sudo dnf install MariaDB-server
$ sudo mysql
 
Note that it implies you are connecting via the unix socket,
not tcp. If you happen to have protocol=tcp in a system-wide
/etc/my.cnf file, use sudo mysql --protocol=socket.
 
After installing MariaDB locally you’ve also used to
connect to the unprotected root account using mysql -uroot.
This will not work either, simply use mysql without
specifying a username.
 
If you've forgotten your root password, no problem — you
can still connect using sudo and change the password. And if
you've also removed unix_socket authentication, to restore
access do as follows:
restart MariaDB with --skip-grant-tables
login into the unprotected server
run FLUSH PRIVILEGES (note, before 10.4 this would’ve been
the last step, not anymore). This disables
--skip-grant-tables and allows you to change the stored
authentication method.
run SET PASSWORD FOR root@localhost to change the root
password
 
To view inside privilege tables, the old mysql.user table
still exists. You can select from it as before, although you
cannot update it anymore. It doesn’t show alternative
authentication plugins and this was one of the reasons for
switching to the mysql.global_priv table — complex
authentication rules did not fit into rigid structure of a
relational table. You can select from the new table, for
example: 
 
select concat(user, '@', host, ' => ',
json_detailed(priv)) from mysql.global_priv;
 
Reverting to the Previous Authentication Method for
root@localhost
 
If you don't want the root@localhost user account created
by mysql_install_db to use unix_socket authentication by
default, then there are a few ways to revert to the previous
mysql_native_password authentication method for this user
account.
 
Configuring mysql_install_db to Revert to the Previous
Authentication Method
 
One way to revert to the previous mysql_native_password
authentication method for the root@localhost user account is
to execute mysql_install_db with a special option. If
mysql_install_db is executed while
--auth-root-authentication-method=normal is specified, then
it will create the default user accounts using the default
behavior of MariaDB 10.3 and before.
 
This means that the root@localhost user account will use
mysql_native_password authentication by default. There are
some other differences as well. See mysql_install_db: User
Accounts Created by Default for more information.
 
For example, the option can be set on the command-line while
running mysql_install_db:
 
mysql_install_db --user=mysql --datadir=/var/lib/mysql
--auth-root-authentication-method=normal
 
The option can also be set in an option file in an option
group supported by mysql_install_db. For example:
 
[mysql_install_db]
auth_root_authentication_method=normal
 
If the option is set in an option file and if
mysql_install_db is executed, then mysql_install_db will
read this option from the option file, and it will
automatically set this option.
 
Altering the User Account to Revert to the Previous
Authentication Method
 
If you have already installed MariaDB, and if the
root@localhost user account is already using unix_socket
authentication, then you can revert to the old
mysql_native_password authenticatio]8(+Syntax

Description
----------- 
The CREATE USER statement creates new MariaDB accounts. To
use it, you must have the global CREATE USER privilege or
the INSERT privilege for the mysql database. For each
account, CREATE USER creates a new row in
the mysql.user table that has no privileges.
 
If any of the specified accounts, or any permissions for the
specified accounts, already exist, then the server returns
ERROR 1396 (HY000). If an error occurs, CREATE USER will
still create the accounts that do not result in an error.
Only one error is produced for all users which have not been
created:
 
ERROR 1396 (HY000): 
 Operation CREATE USER failed for 'u1'@'%','u2'@'%'
 
CREATE USER, DROP USER, CREATE ROLE, and DROP ROLE all
produce the
same error code when they fail.
 
See Account Names below for details on how account names are
specified. 
 
OR REPLACE
 
If the optional OR REPLACE clause is used, it is basically a
shortcut for:
 
DROP USER IF EXISTS name;
 
CREATE USER name ...;
 
For example:
 
CREATE USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
 
ERROR 1396 (HY000): Operation CREATE USER failed for
'foo2'@'test'
 
CREATE OR REPLACE USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
 
IF NOT EXISTS
 
When the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a
warning instead of an error if the specified user already
exists.
 
For example:
 
CREATE USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
 
ERROR 1396 (HY000): Operation CREATE USER failed for
'foo2'@'test'
 
CREATE USER IF NOT EXISTS foo2@test IDENTIFIED BY
'password';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
 
SHOW WARNINGS;
 
+-------+------+----------------------------------------------------+
| Level | Code | Message |
+-------+------+----------------------------------------------------+
| Note | 1973 | Can't create user 'foo2'@'test';

+-------+------+----------------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec
 
Authentication Options
 
IDENTIFIED BY 'password'
 
The optional IDENTIFIED BY clause can be used to provide an
account with a password. The password should be specified in
plain text. It will be hashed by the PASSWORD function prior
to being stored to the mysql.user table.
 
For example, if our password is mariadb, then we can create
the user with:
 
CREATE USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED BY 'mariadb';
 
If you do not specify a password with the IDENTIFIED BY
clause, the user
will be able to connect without a password. A blank password
is not a wildcard
to match any password. The user must connect without
providing a password if no
password is set.
 
The only authentication plugins that this clause supports
are mysql_native_password and mysql_old_password.
 
IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD 'password_hash'
 
The optional IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD clause can be used to
provide an account with a password that has already been
hashed. The password should be specified as a hash that was
provided by the PASSWORD function. It will be stored to the
mysql.user table as-is.
 
For example, if our password is mariadb, then we can find
the hash with:
 
SELECT PASSWORD('mariadb');
+-------------------------------------------+
| PASSWORD('mariadb') |
+-------------------------------------------+
| *54958E764CE10E50764C2EECBB71D01F08549980 |
+-------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
 
And then we can create a user with the hash:
 
CREATE USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD
'*54958E764CE10E50764C2EECBB71D01F08549980';
 
If you do not specify a password with the IDENTIFIED BY
clause, the user
will be able to connect without a password. A blank password
is not a wildcard
to match any password. The user must connect without
providing a password if no
password is set.
 
The only authentication plugins that this clause supports
are mysql_native_password and mysql_old_password.
 
IDENTIFIED {VIA|WITH} authentication_plugin
 
The optional IDENTIFIED VIA authentication_plugin allows you
to specify that the account should be authenticated by a
specific authentication plugin. The plugin name must be an
active authentication plugin as per SHOW PLUGINS. If it
doesn't show up in that output, then you will need to
install it with INSTALL PLUGIN or INSTALL SONAME.
 
For example, this could be used with the PAM authentication
plugin:
 
CREATE USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED VIA pam;
 
Some authentication plugins allow additional arguments to be
specified after a USING or AS keyword. For example, the PAM
authentication plugin accepts a service name:
 
CREATE USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED VIA pam USING 'mariadb';
 
The exact meaning of the additional argument would depend on
the specific authentication plugin.
 
The USING or AS keyword can also be used to provide a
plain-text password to a plugin if it's provided as an
argument to the PASSWORD() function. This is only valid for
authentication plugins that have implemented a hook for the
PASSWORD() function. For example, the ed25519 authentication
plugin supports this:
 
CREATE USER safe@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA ed25519 USING
PASSWORD('secret');
 
One can specify many authentication plugins, they all works
as alternatives ways of authenticating a user:
 
CREATE USER safe@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA ed25519 USING
PASSWORD('secret') OR unix_socket;
 
TLS Options
 
By default, MariaDB transmits data between the server and
clients without encrypting it. This is generally acceptable
when the server and client run on the same host or in
networks where security is guaranteed through other means.
However, in cases where the server and client exist on
separate networks or they are in a high-risk network, the
lack of encryption does introduce security concerns as a
malicious actor could potentially eavesdrop on the traffic
as it is sent over the network between them.
 
To mitigate this concern, MariaDB allows you to encrypt data
in transit between the server and clients using the
Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. TLS was formerly
known as Secure Socket Layer (SSL), but strictly speaking
the SSL protocol is a predecessor to TLS and, that version
of the protocol is now considered insecure. The
documentation still uses the term SSL often and for
compatibility reasons TLS-related server system and status
variables still use the prefix ssl_, but internally, MariaDB
only supports its secure successors.
 
See Secure Connections Overview for more information about
how to determine whether your MariaDB server has TLS
support.
 
You can set certain TLS-related restrictions for specific
user accounts. For instance, you might use this with user
accounts that require access to sensitive data while sending
it across networks that you do not control. These
restrictions can be enabled for a user account with the
CREATE USER, ALTER USER, or GRANT statements. The following
options are available:
 
Option | Description | 
 
REQUIRE NONE | TLS is not required for this account, but can
still be used. | 
 
REQUIRE SSL | The account must use TLS, but no valid X509
certificate is required. This option cannot be combined with
other TLS options. | 
 
REQUIRE X509 | The account must use TLS andiG=� must have a
valid X509 certificate. This option implies REQUIRE SSL.
This option cannot be combined with other TLS options. | 
 
REQUIRE ISSUER 'issuer' | The account must use TLS and
must have a valid X509 certificate. Also, the Certificate
Authority must be the one specified via the string issuer.
This option implies REQUIRE X509. This option can be
combined with the SUBJECT, and CIPHER options in any order.
| 
 
REQUIRE SUBJECT 'subject' | The account must use TLS and
must have a valid X509 certificate. Also, the certificate's
Subject must be the one specified via the string subject.
This option implies REQUIRE X509. This option can be
combined with the ISSUER, and CIPHER options in any order. |

 
REQUIRE CIPHER 'cipher' | The account must use TLS, but no
valid X509 certificate is required. Also, the encryption
used for the connection must use one of the methods
specified in the string cipher. This option implies REQUIRE
SSL. This option can be combined with the ISSUER, and
SUBJECT options in any order. | 
 
The REQUIRE keyword must be used only once for all specified
options, and the AND keyword can be used to separate
individual options, but it is not required.
 
For example, you can create a user account that requires
these TLS options with the following:
 
CREATE USER 'alice'@'%'
 REQUIRE SUBJECT '/CN=alice/O=My Dom,
Inc./C=US/ST=Oregon/L=Portland'
 AND ISSUER '/C=FI/ST=Somewhere/L=City/ O=Some
Company/CN=Peter Parker/emailAddress=p.parker@marvel.com'
 AND CIPHER 'TLSv1.2';
 
If any of these options are set for a specific user account,
then any client who tries to connect with that user account
will have to be configured to connect with TLS.
 
See Securing Connections for Client and Server for
information on how to enable TLS on the client and server.
 
Resource Limit Options
 
MariaDB 10.2.0 introduced a number of resource limit
options.
 
It is possible to set per-account limits for certain server
resources. The following table shows the values that can be
set per account:
 
Limit Type | Decription | 
 
MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR | Number of statements that the account
can issue per hour (including updates) | 
 
MAX_UPDATES_PER_HOUR | Number of updates (not queries) that
the account can issue per hour | 
 
MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR | Number of connections that the
account can start per hour | 
 
MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS | Number of simultaneous connections
that can be accepted from the same account; if it is 0,
max_connections will be used instead; if max_connections is
0, there is no limit for this account's simultaneous
connections. | 
 
MAX_STATEMENT_TIME | Timeout, in seconds, for statements
executed by the user. See also Aborting Statements that
Exceed a Certain Time to Execute. | 
 
If any of these limits are set to 0, then there is no limit
for that resource for that user.
 
Here is an example showing how to create a user with
resource limits:
 
CREATE USER 'someone'@'localhost' WITH
 MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS 10
 MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR 200;
 
The resources are tracked per account, which means
'user'@'server'; not per user name or per connection.
 
The count can be reset for all users using FLUSH
USER_RESOURCES, FLUSH PRIVILEGES or mysqladmin reload.
 
Per account resource limits are stored in the user table, in
the mysql database. Columns used for resources limits are
named max_questions, max_updates, max_connections (for
MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR), and max_user_connections (for
MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS).
 
Account Names
 
Account names have both a user name component and a host
name component, and are specified as
'user_name'@'host_name'.
 
The user name and host name may be unquoted, quoted as
strings using double quotes (") or
single quotes ('), or quoted as identifiers using backticks
(`). You must use quotes
when using special characters (such as a hyphen) or wildcard
characters. If you quote, you 
must quote the user name and host name separately (for
example 'user_name'@'host_name').
 
Host Name Component
 
If the host name is not provided, it is assumed to be '%'.
 
Host names may contain the wildcard characters % and _. They
are matched as if by
the LIKE clause. If you need to use a wildcard character
literally (for example, to
match a domain name with an underscore), prefix the
character with a backslash. See LIKE
for more information on escaping wildcard characters.
 
Host name matches are case-insensitive. Host names can match
either domain names or IP
addresses. Use 'localhost' as the host name to allow only
local client connections.
 
You can use a netmask to match a range of IP addresses using
'base_ip/netmask' as the
host name. A user with an IP address ip_addr will be allowed
to connect if the following
condition is true:
 
ip_addr & netmask = base_ip
 
You can only use netmasks that specify a multiple of 8 bits
of the address to match. That is,
only the following netmasks are allowed:
 
255.0.0.0
255.255.0.0
255.255.255.0
255.255.255.255
 
Using 255.255.255.255 is equivalent to not using a netmask
at all.
 
User Name Component
 
User names must match exactly, including case. A user name
that is empty is known as an anonymous account and is
allowed to match a login attempt with any user name
component. These are described more in the next section.
 
For valid identifiers to use as user names, see Identifier
Names.
 
It is possible for more than one account to match when a
user connects. MariaDB selects
the first matching account after sorting according to the
following criteria:
Accounts with an exact host name are sorted before accounts
using a wildcard in the
host name. Host names using a netmask are considered to be
exact for sorting.
Accounts with a wildcard in the host name are sorted
according to the position of
the first wildcard character. Those with a wildcard
character later in the host name
sort before those with a wildcard character earlier in the
host name.
Accounts with a non-empty user name sort before accounts
with an empty user name.
Accounts with an empty user name are sorted last. As
mentioned previously, these are known as anonymous accounts.
These are described more in the next section.
 
The following table shows a list of example account as
sorted by these criteria:
 
+---------+-------------+
| User | Host |
+---------+-------------+
| joffrey | 192.168.0.3 |
| | 192.168.0.% |
| joffrey | 192.168.% |
| | 192.168.% |
+---------+-------------+
 
Once connected, you only have the privileges granted to the
account that matched,
not all accounts that could have matched. For example,
consider the following
commands:
 
CREATE USER 'joffrey'@'192.168.0.3';
 
CREATE USER 'joffrey'@'%';
 
GRANT SELECT ON test.t1 to 'joffrey'@'192.168.0.3';
 
GRANT SELECT ON test.t2 to 'joffrey'@'%';
 
If you connect as joffrey from 192.168.0.3, you will have
the SELECT
privilege on the table test.t1, but not on the table
test.t2. If you connect as joffrey from any other IP
address, you will have the SELECT privilege on the table
test.t2, but not
on the table test.t1.
 
Beginning with MariaDB 5.5.31, usernames can be up to 80
characters long. From MariaDB 10.0 the system tables are all
by default this length. However, in order to enable this
feature in MariaDB 5.5, the following schema changes must be
made:
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.user MODIFY User CHAR(80) BINARY NOT NULL
DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.db MODIFY User CHAR(80) BINARY NOT NULL
DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.tables_priv MODIFY User CHAR(80) BINARY
NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.columns_priv MODIFY User CHAR(80) BINARY
NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.procs_priv MODIFY User CHAR(80) BINARY NOT
NULL DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.proc MODIFY definer CHAR(141) COLLATE
utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.event MODIFY definer CHAR(141) COLLATE
utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.proxies_priv MODIFY User CHAR(80) COLLATE
utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.proxies_priv MODIFY Proxied_user CHAR(80)
COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.proxies_priv MODIFY Grantor CHAR(141)
COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
 
ALTER TABLE mysql.servers MODIFY Username CHAR(80) NOT NULL
DEFAULT ''�P��	��https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/create-user/ned with the ISSUER, and
SUBJECT options in any order. | 
 
The REQUIRE keyword must be used only once for all specified
options, and the AND keyword can be used to separate
individual options, but it is not required.
 
For example, you can alter a user account to require these
TLS options with the following:
 
ALTER USER 'alice'@'%'
 REQUIRE SUBJECT '/CN=alice/O=My Dom,
Inc./C=US/ST=Oregon/L=Portland'
 AND ISSUER '/C=FI/ST=Somewhere/L=City/ O=Some
Company/CN=Peter Parker/emailAddress=p.parker@marvel.com'
 AND CIPHER 'TLSv1.2';
 
If any of these options are set for a specific user account,
then any client who tries to connect with that user account
will have to be configured to connect with TLS.
 
See Securing Connections for Client and Server for
information on how to enable TLS on the client and server.
 
Resource Limit Options
 
MariaDB 10.2.0 introduced a number of resource limit
options.
 
It is possible to set per-account limits for certain server
resources. The following table shows the values that can be
set per account:
 
Limit Type | Decription | 
 
MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR | Number of statements that the account
can issue per hour (including updates) | 
 
MAX_UPDATES_PER_HOUR | Number of updates (not queries) that
the account can issue per hour | 
 
MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR | Number of connections that the
account can start per hour | 
 
MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS | Number of simultaneous connections
that can be accepted from the same account; if it is 0,
max_connections will be used instead; if max_connections is
0, there is no limit for this account's simultaneous
connections. | 
 
MAX_STATEMENT_TIME | Timeout, in seconds, for statements
executed by the user. See also Aborting Statements that
Exceed a Certain Time to Execute. | 
 
If any of these limits are set to 0, then there is no limit
for that resource for that user.
 
Here is an example showing how to set an account's resource
limits:
 
ALTER USER 'someone'@'localhost' WITH
 MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS 10
 MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR 200;
 
The resources are tracked per account, which means
'user'@'server'; not per user name or per connection.
 
The count can be reset for all users using FLUSH
USER_RESOURCES, FLUSH PRIVILEGES or mysqladmin reload.
 
Per account resource limits are stored in the user table, in
the mysql database. Columns used for resources limits are
named max_questions, max_updates, max_connections (for
MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR), and max_user_connections (for
MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS).
 
Password Expiry
 
Besides automatic password expiry, as determined by
default_password_lifetime, password expiry times can be set
on an individual user basis, overriding the global setting,
for example:
 
ALTER USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE INTERVAL
120 DAY;
 
ALTER USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE NEVER;
 
ALTER USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE DEFAULT;
 
See User Password Expiry for more details.
 
Account Locking
 
Account locking permits privileged administrators to
lock/unlock user accounts. No new client connections will be
permitted if an account is locked (existing connections are
not affected). For example:
 
ALTER USER 'marijn'@'localhost' ACCOUNT LOCK;
 
See Account Locking for more details.

Description
----------- 
The ALTER USER statement modifies existing MariaDB accounts.
To use it, you must have the global CREATE USER privilege or
the UPDATE privilege for the mysql database. The global
SUPER privilege is also required if the read_only system
variable is enabled.
 
If any of the specified user accounts do not yet exist, an
error results. If an error occurs, ALTER USER will still
modify the accounts that do not result in an error. Only one
error is produced for all users which have not been
modified.
 
IF EXISTS
 
When the IF EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a
warning instead of an error for each specified user that
does not exist.
 
Account Names
 
For ALTER USER statements, account names are specified as
the username argument in the same way as they are for CREATE
USER statements. See account names from the CREATE USER page
for details on how account names are specified.
 
CURRENT_USER or CURRENT_USER() can also be used to alter the
account logged into the current session. For example, to
change the current user's password to mariadb:
 
ALTER USER CURRENT_USER() IDENTIFIED BY 'mariadb';
 
Authentication Options
 
IDENTIFIED BY 'password'
 
The optional IDENTIFIED BY clause can be used to provide an
account with a password. The password should be specified in
plain text. It will be hashed by the PASSWORD function prior
to being stored to the mysql.user table.
 
For example, if our password is mariadb, then we can set the
account's password with:
 
ALTER USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED BY 'mariadb';
 
If you do not specify a password with the IDENTIFIED BY
clause, the user
will be able to connect without a password. A blank password
is not a wildcard
to match any password. The user must connect without
providing a password if no
password is set.
 
The only authentication plugins that this clause supports
are mysql_native_password and mysql_old_password.
 
IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD 'password_hash'
 
The optional IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD clause can be used to
provide an account with a password that has already been
hashed. The password should be specified as a hash that was
provided by the PASSWORD function. It will be stored to the
mysql.user table as-is.
 
For example, if our password is mariadb, then we can find
the hash with:
 
SELECT PASSWORD('mariadb');
+-------------------------------------------+
| PASSWORD('mariadb') |
+-------------------------------------------+
| *54958E764CE10E50764C2EECBB71D01F08549980 |
+-------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
 
And then we can set an account's password with the hash:
 
ALTER USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD
'*54958E764CE10E50764C2EECBB71D01F08549980';
 
If you do not specify a password with the IDENTIFIED BY
clause, the user
will be able to connect without a password. A blank password
is not a wildcard
to match any password. The user must connect without
providing a password if no
password is set.
 
The only authentication plugins that this clause supports
are mysql_native_password and mysql_old_password.
 
IDENTIFIED {VIA|WITH} authentication_plugin
 
The optional IDENTIFIED VIA authentication_plugin allows you
to specify that the account should be authenticated by a
specific authentication plugin. The plugin name must be an
active authentication plugin as per SHOW PLUGINS. If it
doesn't show up in that output, then you will need to
install it with INSTALL PLUGIN or INSTALL SONAME.
 
For example, this could be used with the PAM authentication
plugin:
 
ALTER USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED VIA pam;
 
Some authentication plugins allow additional arguments to be
specified after a USING or AS keyword. For example, the PAM
authentication plugin accepts a service name:
 
ALTER USER foo2@test IDENTIFIED VIA pam USING 'mariadb';
 
The exact meaning of the additional argument would depend on
the specific authentication plugin.
 
In MariaDB 10.4 and later, the USING or AS keyword can also
be used to provide a plain-text password to a plugin if
it's provided as an argument to the PASSWORD() function.
This is only valid for authentication plugins that have
implemented a hook for the PASSWORD() function. For example,
the ed25519 authentication plugin supports this:
 
ALTER USER safe@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA ed25519 USING
PASSWORD('secret');
 
TLS Options
 
By default, MariaDB transmits data between the server and
clients without encrypting it. This is generally acceptable
when the server and client run on the same host or in
networks where security is guaranteed through other means.
However, in cases where the server and client exist on
separate networks or they are in a high-risk network, the
lack of encryption does introduce security concerns as a
malicious actor could potentially eavesdrop on the traffic
as it is sent over the network between them.
 
To mitigate this concern, MariaDB allows you to encrypt data
in transit between the server and clients using the
Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. TLS was formerly
known as Secure Socket Layer (SSL), but strictly speaking
the SSL protocol is a predecessor to TLS and, that version
of the protocol is now considered insecure. The
documentation still uses the term SSL often and for
compatibility reasons TLS-related server system and status
variables still use the prefix ssl_, but internally, MariaDB
only supports its secure successors.
 
See Secure Connections Overview for more information about
how to determine whether your MariaDB server has TLS
support.
 
You can set certain TLS-related restrictions for specific
user accounts. For instance, you might use this with user
accounts that require access to sensitive data while sending
it across networks that you do not control. These
restrictions can be enabled for a user account with the
CREATE USER, ALTER USER, or GRANT statements. The following
options are available:
 
Option | Description | 
 
REQUIRE NONE | TLS is not required for this account, but can
still be used. | 
 
REQUIRE SSL | The account must use TLS, but no valid X509
certificate is required. This option cannot be combined with
other TLS options. | 
 
REQUIRE X509 | The account must use TLS and must have a
valid X509 certificate. This option implies REQUIRE SSL.
This option cannot be combined with other TLS options. | 
 
REQUIRE ISSUER 'issuer' | The account must use TLS and
must have a valid X509 certificate. Also, the Certificate
Authority must be the one specified via the string issuer.
This option implies REQUIRE X509. This option can be
combined with the SUBJECT, and CIPHER options in any order.
| 
 
REQUIRE SUBJECT 'subject' | The account must use TLS and
must have a valid X509 certificate. Also, the certificate's
Subject must be the one specified via the string subject.
This option implies REQUIRE X509. This option can be
combined with the ISSUER, and CIPHER options in any order. |

 
REQUIRE CIPHER 'cipher' | The account must use TLS, but no
valid X509 certificate is required. Also, the encryption
used for the connection must use one of the methods
specified in the string cipher. This option implies REQUIRE
SSL. This option can be combi���Syntax

Description
----------- 
The GRANT statement allows you to grant privileges or roles
to accounts. To use GRANT, you must have the GRANT OPTION
privilege, and you must have the privileges that you are
granting.
 
Use the REVOKE statement to revoke privileges granted with
the GRANT statement.
 
Use the SHOW GRANTS statement to determine what privileges
an account has.
 
Account Names
 
For GRANT statements, account names are specified as the
username argument in the same way as they are for CREATE
USER statements. See account names from the CREATE USER page
for details on how account names are specified.
 
Implicit Account Creation
 
The GRANT statement also allows you to implicitly create
accounts in some cases.
 
If the account does not yet exist, then GRANT can implicitly
create it. To implicitly create an account with GRANT, a
user is required to have the same privileges that would be
required to explicitly create the account with the CREATE
USER statement.
 
If the NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER SQL_MODE is set, then accounts
can only be created if authentication information is
specified, or with a CREATE USER statement. If no
authentication information is provided, GRANT will produce
an error when the specified account does not exist, for
example:
 
show variables like '%sql_mode%' ;
+---------------+--------------------------------------------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+---------------+--------------------------------------------+
| sql_mode | NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION |

Privilege Levels
 
Privileges can be set globally, for an entire database, for
a table or routine,
or for individual columns in a table. Certain privileges can
only be set at
certain levels.
Global privileges are granted using *.* for
priv_level. Global privileges include privileges to
administer the database
and manage user accounts, as well as privileges for all
tables, functions, and
procedures. Global privileges are stored in the mysql.user
table.
Database privileges are granted using db_name.*
for priv_level, or using just * to use default database.
Database
privileges include privileges to create tables and
functions, as well as
privileges for all tables, functions, and procedures in the
database. Database privileges are stored in the mysql.db
table.
Table privileges are granted using db_name.tbl_name
for priv_level, or using just tbl_name to specify a table in
the default
database. The TABLE keyword is optional. Table privileges
include the
ability to select and change data in the table. Certain
table privileges can
be granted for individual columns.
Column privileges are granted by specifying a table for
priv_level and providing a column list after the privilege
type. They allow
you to control exactly which columns in a table users can
select and change.
Function privileges are granted using FUNCTION
db_name.routine_name
for priv_level, or using just FUNCTION routine_name to
specify a function
in the default database.
Procedure privileges are granted using PROCEDURE
db_name.routine_name
for priv_level, or using just PROCEDURE routine_name to
specify a procedure
in the default database.
 
The USAGE Privilege
 
The USAGE privilege grants no real privileges. The SHOW
GRANTS
statement will show a global USAGE privilege for a
newly-created user. You
can use USAGE with the GRANT statement to change options
like GRANT OPTION
and MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS without changing any account
privileges.
 
The ALL PRIVILEGES Privilege
 
The ALL PRIVILEGES privilege grants all available
privileges. Granting all
privileges only affects the given privilege level. For
example, granting all
privileges on a table does not grant any privileges on the
database or globally.
 
Using ALL PRIVILEGES does not grant the special GRANT OPTION
privilege.
 
You can use ALL instead of ALL PRIVILEGES.
 
The GRANT OPTION Privilege
 
Use the WITH GRANT OPTION clause to give users the ability
to grant privileges
to other users at the given privilege level. Users with the
GRANT OPTION privilege can
only grant privileges they have. They cannot grant
privileges at a higher privilege level than
they have the GRANT OPTION privilege.
 
The GRANT OPTION privilege cannot be set for individual
columns.
If you use WITH GRANT OPTION when specifying column
privileges,
the GRANT OPTION privilege will be granted for the entire
table.
 
Using the WITH GRANT OPTION clause is equivalent to listing
GRANT OPTION
as a privilege.
 
Global Privileges
 
The following table lists the privileges that can be granted
globally. You can
also grant all database, table, and function privileges
globally. When granted
globally, these privileges apply to all databases, tables,
or functions,
including those created later.
 
To set a global privilege, use *.* for priv_level.
 
Privilege | Description | 
 
CREATE USER | Create a user using the CREATE USER statement,
or implicitly create a user with the GRANT statement. | 
 
FILE | Read and write files on the server, using statements
like LOAD DATA INFILE or functions like LOAD_FILE(). Also
needed to create CONNECT outward tables. MariaDB server must
have the permissions to access those files. | 
 
GRANT OPTION | Grant global privileges. You can only grant
privileges that you have. | 
 
PROCESS | Show information about the active processes, via
SHOW PROCESSLIST or mysqladmin processlist. | 
 
RELOAD | Execute FLUSH statements or equivalent mysqladmin
commands. | 
 
REPLICATION CLIENT | Execute SHOW MASTER STATUS and SHOW
SLAVE STATUS informative statements. | 
 
REPLICATION SLAVE | Accounts used by slave servers on the
master need this privilege. This is needed to get the
updates made on the master. | 
 
SHOW DATABASES | List all databases using the SHOW DATABASES
statement. Without the SHOW DATABASES privilege, you can
still issue the SHOW DATABASES statement, but it will only
list databases containing tables on which you have
privileges. | 
 
SHUTDOWN | Shut down the server using SHUTDOWN or the
mysqladmin shutdown command. | 
 
SUPER | Execute superuser statements: CHANGE MASTER TO, KILL
(users who do not have this privilege can only KILL their
own threads), PURGE LOGS, SET global system variables, or
the mysqladmin debug command. Also, this permission allows
the user to write data even if the read_only startup option
is set, enable or disable logging, enable or disable
replication on slaves, specify a DEFINER for statements that
support that clause, connect once after reaching the
MAX_CONNECTIONS. If a statement has been specified for the
init-connect mysqld opth��ion, that command will not be
executed when a user with SUPER privileges connects to the
server. | 
 
Database Privileges
 
The following table lists the privileges that can be granted
at the database
level. You can also grant all table and function privileges
at the database
level. Table and function privileges on a database apply to
all tables or
functions in that database, including those created later.
 
To set a privilege for a database, specify the database
using
db_name.* for priv_level, or just use *
to specify the default database.
 
Privilege | Description | 
 
CREATE | Create a database using the CREATE DATABASE
statement, when the privilege is granted for a database. You
can grant the CREATE privilege on databases that do not yet
exist. This also grants the CREATE privilege on all tables
in the database. | 
 
CREATE ROUTINE | Create Stored Programs using the CREATE
PROCEDURE and CREATE FUNCTION statements. | 
 
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES | Create temporary tables with the
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE statement. This privilege enable
writing and dropping those temporary tables | 
 
DROP | Drop a database using the DROP DATABASE statement,
when the privilege is granted for a database. This also
grants the DROP privilege on all tables in the database. | 
 
EVENT | Create, drop and alter EVENTs. Added in MySQL 5.1.6.
| 
 
GRANT OPTION | Grant database privileges. You can only grant
privileges that you have. | 
 
LOCK TABLES | Acquire explicit locks using the LOCK TABLES
statement; you also need to have the SELECT privilege on a
table, in order to lock it. | 
 
Table Privileges
 
Privilege | Description | 
 
ALTER | Change the structure of an existing table using the
ALTER TABLE statement. | 
 
CREATE | Create a table using the CREATE TABLE statement.
You can grant the CREATE privilege on tables that do not yet
exist. | 
 
CREATE VIEW | Create a view using the CREATE_VIEW statement.
| 
 
DELETE | Remove rows from a table using the DELETE
statement. | 
 
DELETE HISTORY | Remove historical rows from a table using
the DELETE HISTORY statement. Displays as DELETE VERSIONING
ROWS when running SHOW GRANTS (MDEV-17655). From MariaDB
10.3.4. From MariaDB 10.3.5, if a user has the SUPER
privilege but not this privilege, running mysql_upgrade will
grant this privilege as well. | 
 
DROP | Drop a table using the DROP TABLE statement or a view
using the DROP VIEW statement. Also required to execute the
TRUNCATE TABLE statement. | 
 
GRANT OPTION | Grant table privileges. You can only grant
privileges that you have. | 
 
INDEX | Create an index on a table using the CREATE INDEX
statement. Without the INDEX privilege, you can still create
indexes when creating a table using the CREATE TABLE
statement if the you have the CREATE privilege, and you can
create indexes using the ALTER TABLE statement if you have
the ALTER privilege. | 
 
INSERT | Add rows to a table using the INSERT statement. The
INSERT privilege can also be set on individual columns; see
Column Privileges below for details. | 
 
REFERENCES | Unused. | 
 
SELECT | Read data from a table using the SELECT statement.
The SELECT privilege can also be set on individual columns;
see Column Privileges below for details. | 
 
SHOW VIEW | Show the CREATE VIEW statement to create a view
using the SHOW CREATE VIEW statement. | 
 
TRIGGER | Execute triggers associated to tables you update,
execute the CREATE TRIGGER and DROP TRIGGER statements. You
will still be able to see triggers. | 
 
UPDATE | Update existing rows in a table using the UPDATE
statement. UPDATE statements usually include a WHERE clause
to update only certain rows. You must have SELECT privileges
on the table or the appropriate columns for the WHERE
clause. The UPDATE privilege can also be set on individual
columns; see Column Privileges below for details. | 
 
Column Privileges
 
Some table privileges can be set for individual columns of a
table. To use
column privileges, specify the table explicitly and provide
a list of column
names after the privilege type. For example, the following
statement would allow
the user to read the names and positions of employees, but
not other information
from the same table, such as salaries.
 
GRANT SELECT (name, position) on Employee to
'jeffrey'@'localhost';
 
Privilege | Description | 
 
INSERT (column_list) | Add rows specifying values in columns
using the INSERT statement. If you only have column-level
INSERT privileges, you must specify the columns you are
setting in the INSERT statement. All other columns will be
set to their default values, or NULL. | 
 
REFERENCES (column_list) | Unused. | 
 
SELECT (column_list) | Read values in columns using the
SELECT statement. You cannot access or query any columns for
which you do not have SELECT privileges, including in WHERE,
ON, GROUP BY, and ORDER BY clauses. | 
 
UPDATE (column_list) | Update values in columns of existing
rows using the UPDATE statement. UPDATE statements usually
include a WHERE clause to update only certain rows. You must
have SELECT privileges on the table or the appropriate
columns for the WHERE clause. | 
 
Function Privileges
 
Privilege | Description | 
 
ALTER ROUTINE | Change the characteristics of a stored
function using the ALTER FUNCTION statement. | 
 
EXECUTE | Use a stored function. You need SELECT privileges
for any tables or columns accessed by the function. | 
 
GRANT OPTION | Grant function privileges. You can only grant
privileges that you have. | 
 
Procedure Privileges
 
Privilege | Description | 
 
ALTER ROUTINE | Change the characteristics of a stored
procedure using the ALTER PROCEDURE statement. | 
 
EXECUTE | Execute a stored procedure using the CALL
statement. The privilege to call a procedure may allow you
to perform actions you wouldn't otherwise be able to do,
such as insert rows into a table. | 
 
GRANT OPTION | Grant procedure privileges. You can only
grant privileges that you have. | 
 
Proxy Privileges
 
Privilege | Description | 
 
PROXY | Permits one user to be a proxy for another. | 
 
The PROXY privilege allows one user to proxy as another
user, which means their privileges change to that of the
proxy user, and the CURRENT_USER() function returns the user
name of the proxy user.
 
The PROXY privilege only works with authentication plugins
that support it. The default mysql_native_password
authentication plugin does not support proxy users.
 
The pam authentication plugin is the only plugin included
with MariaDB that currently supports proxy users. The PROXY
privilege is commonly used with the pam authentication
plugin to enable user and group mapping with PAM.
 
For example, to grant the PROXY privilege to an anonymous
account that authenticates with the pam authentication
plugin, you could execute the following:
 
CREATE USER 'dba'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'strongpassword';
 
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'dba'@'%' ;
 
CREATE USER ''@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA pam USING 'mariadb';
 
GRANT PROXY ON 'dba'@'%' TO ''@'%';
 
A user account can only grant the PROXY privilege for a
specific user account if the granter also has the PROXY
privilege for that specific user account, and if that
privilege is defined WITH GRANT OPTION. For example, the
following example fails because the granter does not have
the PROXY privilege for that specific user account at all:
 
SELECT USER(), CURRENT_USER();
+-----------------+-----------------+
| USER() | CURRENT_USER() |
+-----------------+-----------------+
| alice@localhost | alice@localhost |
+-----------------+-----------------+
 
SHOW GRANTS;
 
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Grants for alice@localhost |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'alice'@'localhost'
IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD
'*2470C0C06DEE42FD1618BB99005ADCA2EC9D1E19' |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
GRANT PROXY ON 'dba'@'localhost' TO
'bob'@'localhost';
 
ERROR 1698 (28000): Access denied for user
'ali�r�Wce'@'localhost'
 
And the following example fails because the granter does
have the PROXY privilege for that specific user account, but
it is not defined WITH GRANT OPTION:
 
SELECT USER(), CURRENT_USER();
+-----------------+-----------------+
| USER() | CURRENT_USER() |
+-----------------+-----------------+
| alice@localhost | alice@localhost |
+-----------------+-----------------+
 
SHOW GRANTS;
 
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Grants for alice@localhost |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'alice'@'localhost'
IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD
'*2470C0C06DEE42FD1618BB99005ADCA2EC9D1E19' |
| GRANT PROXY ON 'dba'@'localhost' TO
'alice'@'localhost' |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
MariaDB [(none)]> GRANT PROXY ON 'dba'@'localhost' TO
'bob'@'localhost';
 
ERROR 1698 (28000): Access denied for user
'alice'@'localhost'
 
But the following example succeeds because the granter does
have the PROXY privilege for that specific user account, and
it is defined WITH GRANT OPTION:
 
SELECT USER(), CURRENT_USER();
+-----------------+-----------------+
| USER() | CURRENT_USER() |
+-----------------+-----------------+
| alice@localhost | alice@localhost |
+-----------------+-----------------+
 
SHOW GRANTS;
 
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Grants for alice@localhost |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'alice'@'localhost'
IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD
'*2470C0C06DEE42FD1618BB99005ADCA2EC9D1E19' WITH GRANT
OPTION |
| GRANT PROXY ON 'dba'@'localhost' TO
'alice'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
GRANT PROXY ON 'dba'@'localhost' TO
'bob'@'localhost';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.004 sec)
 
A user account can grant the PROXY privilege for any other
user account if the granter has the PROXY privilege for the
''@'%' anonymous user account, like this:
 
GRANT PROXY ON ''@'%' TO 'dba'@'localhost' WITH
GRANT OPTION;
 
For example, the following example succeeds because the user
can grant the PROXY privilege for any other user account:
 
SELECT USER(), CURRENT_USER();
+-----------------+-----------------+
| USER() | CURRENT_USER() |
+-----------------+-----------------+
| alice@localhost | alice@localhost |
+-----------------+-----------------+
 
SHOW GRANTS;
 
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Grants for alice@localhost |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'alice'@'localhost'
IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD
'*2470C0C06DEE42FD1618BB99005ADCA2EC9D1E19' WITH GRANT
OPTION |
| GRANT PROXY ON ''@'%' TO 'alice'@'localhost' WITH
GRANT OPTION |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
GRANT PROXY ON 'app1_dba'@'localhost' TO
'bob'@'localhost';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.004 sec)
 
GRANT PROXY ON 'app2_dba'@'localhost' TO
'carol'@'localhost';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.004 sec)
 
The default root user accounts created by mysql_install_db
have this privilege. For example:
 
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'localhost' WITH
GRANT OPTION;
 
GRANT PROXY ON ''@'%' TO 'root'@'localhost' WITH
GRANT OPTION;
 
This allows the default root user accounts to grant the
PROXY privilege for any other user account, and it also
allows the default root user accounts to grant others the
privilege to do the same.
 
Authentication Options
 
The authentication options for the GRANT statement are the
same as those for the CREATE USER statement.
 
IDENTIFIED BY 'password'
 
The optional IDENTIFIED BY clause can be used to provide an
account with a password. The password should be specified in
plain text. It will be hashed by the PASSWORD function prior
to being stored to the mysql.user table.
 
For example, if our password is mariadb, then we can create
the user with:
 
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO foo2@test IDENTIFIED BY 'mariadb';
 
If you do not specify a password with the IDENTIFIED BY
clause, the user
will be able to connect without a password. A blank password
is not a wildcard
to match any password. The user must connect without
providing a password if no
password is set.
 
If the user account already exists and if you provide the
IDENTIFIED BY clause, then the user's password will be
changed. You must have the privileges needed for the SET
PASSWORD
statement to change a user's password with GRANT.
 
The only authentication plugins that this clause supports
are mysql_native_password and mysql_old_password.
 
IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD 'password_hash'
 
The optional IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD clause can be used to
provide an account with a password that has already been
hashed. The password should be specified as a hash that was
provided by the PASSWORD function. It will be stored to the
mysql.user table as-is.
 
For example, if our password is mariadb, then we can find
the hash with:
 
SELECT PASSWORD('mariadb');
+-------------------------------------------+
| PASSWORD('mariadb') |
+-------------------------------------------+
| *54958E764CE10E50764C2EECBB71D01F08549980 |
+-------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
 
And then we can create a user with the hash:
 
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO foo2@test IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD
'*54958E764CE10E50764C2EECBB71D01F08549980';
 
If you do not specify a password with the IDENTIFIED BY
clause, the user
will be able to connect without a password. A blank password
is not a wildcard
to match any password. The user must connect without
providing a password if no
password is set.
 
If the user account already exists and if you provide the
IDENTIFIED BY clause, then the user's password will be
changed. You must have the privileges needed for the SET
PASSWORD
statement to change a user's password with GRANT.
 
The only authentication plugins that this clause supports
are mysql_native_password and mysql_old_password.
 
IDENTIFIED {VIA|WITH} authentication_plugin
 
The optional IDENTIFIED VIA authentication_plugin allows you
to specify that the account should be authenticated by a
specific authentication plugin. The plugin name must be an
active authentication plugin as per SHOW PLUGINS. If it
doesn't show up in that output, then you will need to
install it with INSTALL PLUGIN or INSTALL SONAME.
 
For example, this could be used with the PAM authentication
plugin:
 
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO foo2@test IDENTIFIED VIA pam;
 
Some authentication plugins allow additional arguments to be
specified after a USING or AS keyword. For example, the PAM
authentication plugin accepts a service name:
 
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO foo2@test IDENTIFIED VIA pam USING
'mariadb';
 
The exact meaning of the additional argument would depend on
the specific authentication plugin.
 
The USING or AS keyword can also be used to provide a
plain-text password to a plugin if it's provided as an
argument to the PASSWORD() function. This is only valid for
authentication plugins that have implemented a hook for the
PASSWORD() function. For example, the ed25519 authentication
plugin supports this:
 
CREATE USER safe@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA ed25519 USING
PASSWORD('secret');
 
One can specify many authentication plugins, they all works
as alternatives ways of authenticating a user:
 
CREATE USER safe@'%' IDENTIFIED VIA ed25519 USING
PASSWORD('secret') OR unix_socket;
 
Resource Limit Options
 
MariaDB 10.2.0 introduced a number of resource limit
options.
 
It is possible to set pe1�Pr-account limits for certain server
resources. The following table shows the values that can be
set per account:
 
Limit Type | Decription | 
 
MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR | Number of statements that the account
can issue per hour (including updates) | 
 
MAX_UPDATES_PER_HOUR | Number of updates (not queries) that
the account can issue per hour | 
 
MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR | Number of connections that the
account can start per hour | 
 
MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS | Number of simultaneous connections
that can be accepted from the same account; if it is 0,
max_connections will be used instead; if max_connections is
0, there is no limit for this account's simultaneous
connections. | 
 
MAX_STATEMENT_TIME | Timeout, in seconds, for statements
executed by the user. See also Aborting Statements that
Exceed a Certain Time to Execute. | 
 
If any of these limits are set to 0, then there is no limit
for that resource for that user.
 
To set resource limits for an account, if you do not want to
change that account's privileges, you can issue a GRANT
statement with the USAGE privilege, which has no meaning.
The statement can name some or all limit types, in any
order.
 
Here is an example showing how to set resource limits:
 
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'someone'@'localhost' WITH
 MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS 0
 MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR 200;
 
The resources are tracked per account, which means
'user'@'server'; not per user name or per connection.
 
The count can be reset for all users using FLUSH
USER_RESOURCES, FLUSH PRIVILEGES or mysqladmin reload.
 
Per account resource limits are stored in the user table, in
the mysql database. Columns used for resources limits are
named max_questions, max_updates, max_connections (for
MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR), and max_user_connections (for
MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS).
 
TLS Options
 
By default, MariaDB transmits data between the server and
clients without encrypting it. This is generally acceptable
when the server and client run on the same host or in
networks where security is guaranteed through other means.
However, in cases where the server and client exist on
separate networks or they are in a high-risk network, the
lack of encryption does introduce security concerns as a
malicious actor could potentially eavesdrop on the traffic
as it is sent over the network between them.
 
To mitigate this concern, MariaDB allows you to encrypt data
in transit between the server and clients using the
Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. TLS was formerly
known as Secure Socket Layer (SSL), but strictly speaking
the SSL protocol is a predecessor to TLS and, that version
of the protocol is now considered insecure. The
documentation still uses the term SSL often and for
compatibility reasons TLS-related server system and status
variables still use the prefix ssl_, but internally, MariaDB
only supports its secure successors.
 
See Secure Connections Overview for more information about
how to determine whether your MariaDB server has TLS
support.
 
You can set certain TLS-related restrictions for specific
user accounts. For instance, you might use this with user
accounts that require access to sensitive data while sending
it across networks that you do not control. These
restrictions can be enabled for a user account with the
CREATE USER, ALTER USER, or GRANT statements. The following
options are available:
 
Option | Description | 
 
REQUIRE NONE | TLS is not required for this account, but can
still be used. | 
 
REQUIRE SSL | The account must use TLS, but no valid X509
certificate is required. This option cannot be combined with
other TLS options. | 
 
REQUIRE X509 | The account must use TLS and must have a
valid X509 certificate. This option implies REQUIRE SSL.
This option cannot be combined with other TLS options. | 
 
REQUIRE ISSUER 'issuer' | The account must use TLS and
must have a valid X509 certificate. Also, the Certificate
Authority must be the one specified via the string issuer.
This option implies REQUIRE X509. This option can be
combined with the SUBJECT, and CIPHER options in any order.
| 
 
REQUIRE SUBJECT 'subject' | The account must use TLS and
must have a valid X509 certificate. Also, the certificate's
Subject must be the one specified via the string subject.
This option implies REQUIRE X509. This option can be
combined with the ISSUER, and CIPHER options in any order. |

 
REQUIRE CIPHER 'cipher' | The account must use TLS, but no
valid X509 certificate is required. Also, the encryption
used for the connection must use one of the methods
specified in the string cipher. This option implies REQUIRE
SSL. This option can be combined with the ISSUER, and
SUBJECT options in any order. | 
 
The REQUIRE keyword must be used only once for all specified
options, and the AND keyword can be used to separate
individual options, but it is not required.
 
For example, you can create a user account that requires
these TLS options with the following:
 
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'alice'@'%'
 REQUIRE SUBJECT '/CN=alice/O=My Dom,
Inc./C=US/ST=Oregon/L=Portland'
 AND ISSUER '/C=FI/ST=Somewhere/L=City/ O=Some
Company/CN=Peter Parker/emailAddress=p.parker@marvel.com'
 AND CIPHER 'TLSv1.2';
 
If any of these options are set for a specific user account,
then any client who tries to connect with that user account
will have to be configured to connect with TLS.
 
See Securing Connections for Client and Server for
information on how to enable TLS on the client and server.
 
Roles
 
Roles were introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
GRANT role TO grantee [, grantee2 ... ]
[ WITH ADMIN OPTION ]
 
The GRANT statement is also used to grant the use a role to
one or more users or other roles. In order to be able to
grant a role, the grantor doing so must have permission to
do so (see WITH ADMIN in the CREATE ROLE article).
 
Specifying the WITH ADMIN OPTION permits the grantee to in
turn grant the role to another.
 
For example, the following commands show how to grant the
same role to a couple different users.
 
GRANT journalist TO hulda;
 
GRANT journalist TO berengar WITH ADMIN OPTION;
 
If a user has been granted a role, they do not automatically
obtain all permissions associated with that role. These
permissions are only in use when the user activates the role
with the SET ROLE statement.
 
Grant Examples
 
Granting Root-like Privileges
 
You can create a user that has privileges similar to the
default root accounts by executing the following:
 
CREATE USER 'alexander'@'localhost';
 
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* to 'alexander'@'localhost'
WITH GRANT OPTION;

�[cd4EXECUTE IMMEDIATEEXECUTE IMMEDIATE was introduced in MariaDB 10.2.3.
 
Syntax
------ 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE statement
 
Description
----------- 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE executes a dynamic SQL statement created
on the fly, which can reduce performance overhead.
 
For example:
 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT 1' 
 
which is shorthand for:
 
prepare stmt from "select 1";
 
execute stmt;
 
deallocate prepare stmt;
 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE supports complex expressions as prepare
source and parameters:
 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE CONCAT('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ', 't1',
' WHERE a=?') USING 5+5;
 
Limitations: subselects and stored function calls are not
supported as a prepare source.
 
The following examples return an error:
 
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f1() RETURNS VARCHAR(64) RETURN
'SELECT * FROM t1';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE f1();
ERROR 1970 (42000): EXECUTE IMMEDIATE does not support
subqueries or stored functions
 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE (SELECT 'SELECT * FROM t1');
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax;
check the manual that 
 corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right
syntax to use near 
 'SELECT 'SELECT * FROM t1')' at line 1
 
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f1() RETURNS INT RETURN 10;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE a=?' USING f1();
ERROR 1970 (42000): EXECUTE..USING does not support
subqueries or stored functions
 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE a=?' USING
(SELECT 10);
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax;
check the manual that 
 corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right
syntax to use near 
 'SELECT 10)' at line 1
 
One can use a user or an SP variable as a workaround:
 
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f1() RETURNS VARCHAR(64) RETURN
'SELECT * FROM t1';
SET @stmt=f1();
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE @stmt;
 
SET @stmt=(SELECT 'SELECT 1');
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE @stmt;
 
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f1() RETURNS INT RETURN 10;
SET @param=f1();
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE a=?' USING
@param;
 
SET @param=(SELECT 10);
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE a=?' USING
@param;
 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE supports user variables and SP variables
as OUT parameters
 
DELIMITER $$
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE p1(OUT a INT)
BEGIN
 SET a:= 10;
END;
$$
DELIMITER ;
SET @a=2;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CALL p1(?)' USING @a;
SELECT @a;
+------+
| @a |
+------+
| 10 |
+------+
 
Similar to PREPARE, EXECUTE IMMEDIATE is allowed in stored
procedures but is not allowed in stored functions.
 
This example uses EXECUTE IMMEDIATE inside a stored
procedure:
 
DELIMITER $$
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE p1()
BEGIN
 EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT 1';
END;
$$
DELIMITER ;
CALL p1;
+---+
| 1 |
+---+
| 1 |
+---+
 
This script returns an error:
 
DELIMITER $$
CREATE FUNCTION f1() RETURNS INT
BEGIN
 EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'DO 1';
 RETURN 1;
END;
$$
ERROR 1336 (0A000): Dynamic SQL is not allowed in stored
function or trigger
 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE can use DEFAULT and IGNORE indicators as
bind parameters:
 
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t1 (a INT DEFAULT 10);
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (?)' USING
DEFAULT;
SELECT * FROM t1;
+------+
| a |
+------+
| 10 |
+------+
 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE increments the Com_execute_immediate
status variable, as well as the Com_stmt_prepare,
Com_stmt_execute and Com_stmt_close status variables.
 
Note, EXECUTE IMMEDIATE does not increment the
Com_execute_sql status variable. Com_execute_sql is used
only for PREPARE..EXECUTE.
 
This session screenshot demonstrates how EXECUTE IMMEDIATE
affects status variables:
 
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SESSION_STATUS WHERE
VARIABLE_NAME RLIKE 
 ('COM_(EXECUTE|STMT_PREPARE|STMT_EXECUTE|STMT_CLOSE)');
 
+-----------------------+----------------+
| VARIABLE_NAME | VARIABLE_VALUE |

| COM_EXECUTE_IMMEDIATE | 0 |
| COM_EXECUTE_SQL | 0 |
| COM_STMT_CLOSE | 0 |
| COM_STMT_EXECUTE | 0 |

+-----------------------+----------------+
 
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT 1';
+---+
| 1 |
+---+
| 1 |
+---+
 
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SESSION_STATUS WHERE
VARIABLE_NAME RLIKE 
 ('COM_(EXECUTE|STMT_PREPARE|STMT_EXECUTE|STMT_CLOSE)');
+-----------------------+----------------+
| VARIABLE_NAME | VARIABLE_VALUE |
+-----------------------+----------------+
| COM_EXECUTE_IMMEDIATE | 1 |
| COM_EXECUTE_SQL | 0 |
| COM_STMT_CLOSE | 1 |
| COM_STMT_EXECUTE | 1 |
| COM_STMT_PREPARE | 1 |

URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/execute-immediate/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/execute-immediate/g%3Metadata LockingMetadata locking has been supported since MariaDB 5.5. This
means that when a transaction (including XA transactions)
uses a table, it locks its metadata until the end of
transaction. Non-transactional tables are also locked, as
well as views and objects which are related to locked
tables/views (stored functions, triggers, etc). When a
connection tries to use a DDL statement (like an ALTER
TABLE) which modifies a table that is locked, that
connection is queued, and has to wait until it's unlocked.
Using savepoints and performing a partial rollback does not
release metadata locks.
 
LOCK TABLES ... WRITE are also queued. Some wrong statements
which produce an error may not need to wait for the lock to
be freed.
 
Metadata lock's timeout is determined by the value of the
lock_wait_timeout server system variable (in seconds).
However, note that its default value is 31536000 (1 year).
If this timeout exceeds, the following error is returned:
 
ERROR 1205 (HY000): Lock wait timeout exceeded;
 try restarting transaction
 
If the metadata_lock_info plugin is installed, the
Information Schema metadata_lock_info table stores
information about existing metadata locks.
 
Example
 
Let's use the following MEMORY (non-transactional) table:
 
CREATE TABLE t (a INT) ENGINE = MEMORY;
 
Connection 1 starts a transaction, and INSERTs a row into t:
 
START TRANSACTION;
 
INSERT INTO t SET a=1;
 
t's metadata is now locked by connection 1. Connection 2
tries to alter t, but has to wait:
 
ALTER TABLE t ADD COLUMN b INT;
 
Connection 2's prompt is blocked now.
 
Now connection 1 ends the transaction:
 
COMMIT;
 
...and connection 2 finally gets the output of its command:
 
Query OK, 1 row affected (35.23 sec)
Records: 1 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0

Description
----------- 
The lock_type can be one of:
 
Option | Description |

READ LOCAL | Read lock, but allow concurrent inserts | 
 
WRITE | Exclusive write lock. No other connections can read
or write to this table | 
 
LOW_PRIORITY WRITE | Exclusive write lock, but allow new
read locks on the table until we get the write lock. | 
 
WRITE CONCURRENT | Exclusive write lock, but allow READ
LOCAL locks to the table. | 
 
MariaDB enables client sessions to acquire table locks
explicitly for the
purpose of cooperating with other sessions for access to
tables, or to
prevent other sessions from modifying tables during periods
when a
session requires exclusive access to them. A session can
acquire or
release locks only for itself. One session cannot acquire
locks for
another session or release locks held by another session.
 
Locks may be used to emulate transactions or to get more
speed when
updating tables.
 
LOCK TABLES explicitly acquires table locks for the current
client session.
Table locks can be acquired for base tables or views. To use
LOCK TABLES,
you must have the LOCK TABLES privilege, and the SELECT
privilege for
each object to be locked. See GRANT
 
For view locking, LOCK TABLES adds all base tables used in
the view to the
set of tables to be locked and locks them automatically. If
you lock a table
explicitly with LOCK TABLES, any tables used in triggers are
also locked
implicitly, as described in Triggers and Implicit Locks.
 
UNLOCK TABLES explicitly releases any table locks held by
the
current session.
 
WAIT/NOWAIT
 
Set the lock wait timeout. See WAIT and NOWAIT.
 
Limitations
 
LOCK TABLES doesn't work when using Galera cluster. You may
experience crashes or locks when used with Galera.
 
LOCK TABLES works on XtraDB/InnoDB tables only if the
innodb_table_locks system variable is set to 1 (the default)
and autocommit is set to 0 (1 is default). Please note that
no error message will be returned on LOCK TABLES with
innodb_table_locks = 0.
 
LOCK TABLES implicitly commits the active transaction, if
any. Also, starting a transaction always releases all table
locks acquired with LOCK TABLES. This means that there is no
way to have table locks and an active transaction at the
same time. The only exceptions are the transactions in
autocommit mode. To preserve the data integrity between
transactional and non-transactional tables, the GET_LOCK()
function can be used.
 
While a connection holds an explicit read lock on a table,
it cannot modify it. If you try, the following error will be
produced:
 
ERROR 1099 (HY000): Table 'tab_name' was locked with a
READ lock and can't be updated
 
While a connection holds an explicit lock on a table, it
cannot access a non-locked table. If you try, the following
error will be produced:
 
ERROR 1100 (HY000): Table 'tab_name' was not locked with
LOCK TABLES
 
While a connection holds an explicit lock on a table, it
cannot issue the following: INSERT DELAYED, CREATE TABLE,
CREATE TABLE ... LIKE, and DDL statements involving stored
programs and views (except for triggers). If you try, the
following error will be produced:
 
ERROR 1192 (HY000): Can't execute the given command because
you have active locked tables or an active transaction
 
LOCK TABLES can not be used in stored routines - if you try,
the following error will be produced on creation:

------ 
PURGE { BINARY | MASTER } LOGS
 { TO 'log_name' | BEFORE datetime_expr }
 
Description
----------- 
The PURGE BINARY LOGS statement deletes all the binary log
files listed in the log index file prior to the specified
log file name or
date. BINARY and MASTER are synonyms.
Deleted log files also are removed from the list recorded in
the index file, so
that the given log file becomes the first in the list.
 
The datetime expression is in the format 'YYYY-MM-DD
hh:mm:ss'. 
 
If a slave is active but has yet to read from a binary log
file you attempt to delete, the statement will fail with an
error. However, if the slave is not connected and has yet to
read from a log file you delete, the file will be deleted,
but the slave will be unable to continue replicating once it
connects again.
 
This statement has no effect if the server was not started
with the
--log-bin option to enable binary logging.
 
To list the binary log files on the server, use SHOW BINARY
LOGS. To see which files they are reading, use SHOW SLAVE
STATUS. You can only delete the files that are older than
the oldest file that is used by the slaves.
 
To delete all binary log files, use RESET MASTER.
To move to a new log file (for example if you want to remove
the current log file), use FLUSH LOGS before you execute
PURGE LOGS.
 
If the expire_logs_days server system variable is not set to
0, the server automatically deletes binary log files after
the given number of days.
 
Examples
-------- 
PURGE BINARY LOGS TO 'mariadb-bin.000063';
 
PURGE BINARY LOGS BEFORE '2013-04-21';
 
PURGE BINARY LOGS BEFORE '2013-04-22 09:55:22';

------ 
MD5(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Calculates an MD5 128-bit checksum for the string. 
 
The return value is a 32-hex digit string, and as of MariaDB
5.5, is a nonbinary string in the connection character set
and collation, determined by the values of the
character_set_connection and collation_connection system
variables. Before 5.5, the return value was a binary string.
 
NULL is returned if the argument was NULL. 
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT MD5('testing');

+ROLLBACKThe ROLLBACK statement rolls back (ends) a transaction,
destroying any changes to SQL-data so that they never become
visible to subsequent transactions. The required syntax for
the ROLLBACK statement is as follows. 
 
ROLLBACK [ WORK ] [ AND [ NO ] CHAIN ] 
[ TO [ SAVEPOINT ] { | } ]
 
The ROLLBACK statement will either end a transaction,
destroying all data changes that happened during any of the
transaction, or it will just destroy any data changes that
happened since you established a savepoint. The basic form
of the ROLLBACK statement is just the keyword ROLLBACK (the
keyword WORK is simply noise and can be omitted without
changing the effect). 
 
The optional AND CHAIN clause is a convenience for
initiating a new transaction as soon as the old transaction
terminates. If AND CHAIN is specified, then there is
effectively nothing between the old and new transactions,
although they remain separate. The characteristics of the
new transaction will be the same as the characteristics of
the old one — that is, the new transaction will have the
same access mode, isolation level and diagnostics area size
(we'll discuss all of these shortly) as the transaction
just terminated. The AND NO CHAIN option just tells your
DBMS to end the transaction — that is, these four SQL
statements are equivalent: 
 
ROLLBACK;
 
ROLLBACK WORK;
 
ROLLBACK AND NO CHAIN;
 
ROLLBACK WORK AND NO CHAIN;
 
All of them end a transaction without saving any transaction
characteristics. The only other options, the equivalent
statements: 
 
ROLLBACK AND CHAIN;
 
ROLLBACK WORK AND CHAIN;
 
both tell your DBMS to end a transaction, but to save that
transaction's characteristics for the next transaction. 
 
ROLLBACK is much simpler than COMMIT: it may involve no more
than a few deletions (of Cursors, locks, prepared SQL
statements and log-file entries). It's usually assumed that
ROLLBACK can't fail, although such a thing is conceivable
(for example, an encompassing transaction might reject an
attempt to ROLLBACK because it's lining up for a COMMIT). 
 
ROLLBACK cancels all effects of a transaction. It does not
cancel effects on objects outside the DBMS's control (for
example the values in host program variables or the settings
made by some SQL/CLI function calls). But in general, it is
a convenient statement for those situations when you say
"oops, this isn't working" or when you simply don't care
whether your temporary work becomes permanent or not.
 
Here is a moot question. If all you've been doing is
SELECTs, so that there have been no data changes, should you
end the transaction with ROLLBACK or COMMIT? It shouldn't
really matter because both ROLLBACK and COMMIT do the same
transaction-terminating job. However, the popular conception
is that ROLLBACK implies failure, so after a successful
series of SELECT statements the convention is to end the
transaction with COMMIT rather than ROLLBACK.
 
MariaDB (and most other DBMSs) supports rollback of SQL-data
change statements, but not of SQL-Schema statements. This
means that if you use any of CREATE, ALTER, DROP, GRANT,
REVOKE, you are implicitly committing at execution time.
 
INSERT INTO Table_2 VALUES(5); 
DROP TABLE Table_3 CASCADE;
 
ROLLBACK;
 
The result will be that both the INSERT and the DROP will go
through as separate transactions so the ROLLBACK will have
no effect. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/rollback/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/rollback/k�>RESET SLAVERESET SLAVE ["connection_name"] [ALL] 
 
RESET SLAVE makes the slave forget its replication position
in the
master's binary log. This statement is meant to be used for
a clean
start. It deletes the master.info and relay-log.info files,
all the
relay log files, and starts a new relay log file. To use
RESET SLAVE,
the slave replication threads must be stopped (use STOP
SLAVE if
necessary).
 
Note: All relay log files are deleted, even if they have not
been
completely executed by the slave SQL thread. (This is a
condition
likely to exist on a replication slave if you have issued a
STOP SLAVE
statement or if the slave is highly loaded.)
 
Connection information stored in the master.info file is
immediately
reset using any values specified in the corresponding
startup options.
This information includes values such as master host, master
port,
master user, and master password. If the slave SQL thread
was in the
middle of replicating temporary tables when it was stopped,
and RESET
SLAVE is issued, these replicated temporary tables are
deleted on the
slave.
 
The ALL also resets the PORT, HOST, USER and PASSWORD
parameters for the slave. If you are using a connection
name, it will permanently delete it and it will not show up
anymore in SHOW ALL SLAVES STATUS.
 
connection_name
 
The connection_name option was added as part of multi-source
replication added in MariaDB 10.0
 
If there is only one nameless master, or the default master
(as specified by the default_master_connection system
variable) is intended, connection_name can be omitted. If
provided, the RESET SLAVE statement will apply to the
specified master. connection_name is case-insensitive.

h�4PREPARE StatementSyntax
------ 
PREPARE stmt_name FROM preparable_stmt
 
Description
----------- 
The PREPARE statement prepares a statement and assigns it a
name,
stmt_name, by which to refer to the statement later.
Statement names
are not case sensitive. preparable_stmt is either a string
literal or a user variable (not a local variable, an SQL
expression or a subquery) that contains the text of the
statement. The text must 
represent a single SQL statement, not multiple statements.
Within the
statement, "?" characters can be used as parameter markers
to indicate
where data values are to be bound to the query later when
you execute
it. The "?" characters should not be enclosed within
quotes, even if
you intend to bind them to string values. Parameter markers
can be used
only where data values should appear, not for SQL keywords,
identifiers, and so forth.
 
The scope of a prepared statement is the session within
which it is
created. Other sessions cannot see it.
 
If a prepared statement with the given name already exists,
it is
deallocated implicitly before the new statement is prepared.
This means
that if the new statement contains an error and cannot be
prepared, an
error is returned and no statement with the given name
exists.
 
Prepared statements can be PREPAREd and EXECUTEd in a stored
procedure, but not in a stored function or trigger. Also,
even if the statement is PREPAREd in a procedure, it will
not be deallocated when the procedure execution ends.
 
A prepared statement can access user-defined variables, but
not local variables or procedure's parameters.
 
If the prepared statement contains a syntax error, PREPARE
will fail. As a side effect, stored procedures can use it to
check if a statement is valid. For example:
 
CREATE PROCEDURE `test_stmt`(IN sql_text TEXT)
BEGIN
 DECLARE EXIT HANDLER FOR SQLEXCEPTION
 BEGIN
 SELECT CONCAT(sql_text, ' is not valid');
 END;
 SET @SQL := sql_text;
 PREPARE stmt FROM @SQL;
 DEALLOCATE PREPARE stmt;
END;
 
The FOUND_ROWS() and ROW_COUNT() functions, if called
immediatly after EXECUTE, return the number of rows read or
affected by the prepared statements; however, if they are
called after DEALLOCATE PREPARE, they provide information
about this statement. If the prepared statement produces
errors or warnings, GET DIAGNOSTICS return information about
them. DEALLOCATE PREPARE shouldn't clear the diagnostics
area, unless it produces an error.
 
A prepared statement is executed with EXECUTE and released 
with DEALLOCATE PREPARE.
 
The max_prepared_stmt_count server system variable
determines the number of allowed prepared statements that
can be prepared on the server. If it is set to 0, prepared
statements are not allowed. If the limit is reached, an
error similar to the following will be produced:
 
ERROR 1461 (42000): Can't create more than
max_prepared_stmt_count statements 
 (current value: 0)
 
Oracle Mode
 
In Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3, PREPARE stmt FROM 'SELECT
:1, :2' is used, instead of ?.
 
Permitted Statements
 
Not all statements can be prepared. Only the following SQL
commands are permitted:
ALTER TABLE
ANALYZE TABLE
BINLOG
CACHE INDEX
CALL
CHANGE MASTER
CHECKSUM {TABLE | TABLES}
COMMIT
{CREATE | DROP} DATABASE

SLAVE {START | STOP}
TRUNCATE TABLE
SHUTDOWN
UNINSTALL {PLUGIN | SONAME}
UPDATE
 
Synonyms are not listed here, but can be used. For example,
DESC can be used instead of DESCRIBE.
 
Compound statements can be prepared too.
 
Note that if a statement can be run in a stored routine, it
will work even if it is called by a prepared statement. For
example, SIGNAL can't be directly prepared. However, it is
allowed in stored routines. If the x() procedure contains
SIGNAL, you can still prepare and execute the 'CALL x();'
prepared statement.
 
PREPARE now supports most kinds of expressions as well, for
example:
 
PREPARE stmt FROM CONCAT('SELECT * FROM ', table_name);
 
When PREPARE is used with a statement which is not
supported, the following error is produced:
 
ERROR 1295 (HY000): This command is not supported in the
prepared statement protocol yet
 
Example
 
create table t1 (a int,b char(10));
insert into t1 values (1,"one"),(2,
"two"),(3,"three");
prepare test from "select * from t1 where a=?";
set @param=2;
execute test using @param;
+------+------+
| a | b |
+------+------+
| 2 | two |
+------+------+
set @param=3;
execute test using @param;
+------+-------+
| a | b |
+------+-------+
| 3 | three |
+------+-------+
deallocate prepare test;
 
Since identifiers are not permitted as prepared statements
parameters, sometimes it is necessary to dynamically compose
an SQL statement. This technique is called dynamic SQL). The
following example shows how to use dynamic SQL:
 
CREATE PROCEDURE test.stmt_test(IN tab_name VARCHAR(64))
BEGIN
 SET @sql = CONCAT('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ', tab_name);
 PREPARE stmt FROM @sql;
 EXECUTE stmt;
 DEALLOCATE PREPARE stmt;
END;
 
CALL test.stmt_test('mysql.user');
+----------+
| COUNT(*) |
+----------+
| 4 |

Use of variables in prepared statements:
 
PREPARE stmt FROM 'SELECT @x;';
 
SET @x = 1;
 
EXECUTE stmt;
+------+
| @x |
+------+
| 1 |
+------+
 
SET @x = 0;
 
EXECUTE stmt;
+------+
| @x |
+------+
| 0 |
+------+
 
DEALLOCATE PREPARE stmt;

 ISOLATION LEVEL level
 | READ WRITE

level:
 REPEATABLE READ
 | READ COMMITTED
 | READ UNCOMMITTED
 | SERIALIZABLE
 
Description
----------- 
This statement sets the transaction isolation level or the
transaction access mode globally, for the current session,
or for the next transaction:
With the GLOBAL keyword, the statement sets the default
 transaction level globally for all subsequent sessions.
Existing sessions are
 unaffected.
With the SESSION keyword, the statement sets the default
 transaction level for all subsequent transactions performed
within the
 current session.
Without any SESSION or GLOBAL keyword,
 the statement sets the isolation level for the next (not
started) transaction
 performed within the current session.
 
A change to the global default isolation level requires the 
SUPER privilege. Any session is free to change its
session isolation level (even in the middle of a
transaction), or the isolation
level for its next transaction.
 
Isolation Level
 
To set the global default isolation level at server startup,
use the
--transaction-isolation=level option on the command line or
in an option file. Values of level for this option use
dashes
rather than spaces, so the allowable values are
READ-UNCOMMITTED,
READ-COMMITTED, REPEATABLE-READ, or
SERIALIZABLE. For example, to set the default isolation
level to REPEATABLE READ, use these lines in the [mysqld]
section of an option file:
 
[mysqld]
transaction-isolation = REPEATABLE-READ
To determine the global and session transaction isolation
levels at
runtime, check the value of the tx_isolation system
variable:
 
SELECT @@GLOBAL.tx_isolation, @@tx_isolation;
 
InnoDB supports each of the translation isolation levels
described here
using different locking strategies. The default level is 
REPEATABLE READ. For additional information about InnoDB
record-level locks and how it uses them to execute various
types of statements,
see XtraDB/InnoDB Lock Modes,
and
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/en/innodb-locks-set.html.
 
Isolation Levels
 
The following sections describe how MariaDB supports the
different transaction levels.
 
READ UNCOMMITTED
 
SELECT statements are performed in a non-locking fashion,
but a possible earlier version of a row might be used. Thus,
using this
isolation level, such reads are not consistent. This is also
called a "dirty
read." Otherwise, this isolation level works like 
READ COMMITTED.
 
READ COMMITTED
 
A somewhat Oracle-like isolation level with respect to
consistent
(non-locking) reads: Each consistent read, even within the
same
transaction, sets and reads its own fresh snapshot. See
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/en/innodb-consistent-read.html.
 
For locking reads (SELECT with FOR UPDATE
or LOCK IN SHARE MODE), InnoDB locks only index records, not
the gaps before them, and thus allows the free insertion of
new records next to
locked records. For UPDATE and DELETE
statements, locking depends on whether the statement uses a
unique index with a
unique search condition (such as WHERE id = 100), or a
range-type search condition (such as WHERE id > 100). For a
unique index with a unique search condition, InnoDB locks
only the index record
found, not the gap before it. For range-type searches,
InnoDB locks the index
range scanned, using gap locks or next-key (gap plus
index-record) locks to
block insertions by other sessions into the gaps covered by
the range. This is
necessary because "phantom rows" must be blocked for MySQL
replication and
recovery to work.
 
Note: Since MariaDB 5.1, if the READ COMMITTED isolation
level is used or the innodb_locks_unsafe_for_binlog system
variable is enabled,
there is no InnoDB gap locking except for foreign-key
constraint checking and
duplicate-key checking. Also, record locks for non-matching
rows are released
after MariaDB has evaluated the WHERE condition. As of
MariaDB/MySQL
5.1, if you use READ COMMITTED or enable
innodb_locks_unsafe_for_binlog, you must use row-based
binary logging.
 
REPEATABLE READ
 
This is the default isolation level for InnoDB. For
consistent reads,
there is an important difference from the READ COMMITTED
isolation level: All consistent reads within the same
transaction read the
snapshot established by the first read. This convention
means that if you issue
several plain (non-locking) SELECT statements within the
same transaction, these SELECT statements are consistent
also with respect to each other. See
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/en/innodb-consistent-read.html.
 
For locking reads (SELECT with FOR UPDATE or LOCK IN SHARE
MODE),
UPDATE, and DELETE statements, locking depends on whether
the
statement uses a unique index with a unique search
condition, or a
range-type search condition. For a unique index with a
unique search
condition, InnoDB locks only the index record found, not the
gap
before it. For other search conditions, InnoDB locks the
index range
scanned, using gap locks or next-key (gap plus index-record)
locks to
block insertions by other sessions into the gaps covered by
the range.
 
This is the minimum isolation level for non-distributed XA
transactions.
 
SERIALIZABLE
 
This level is like REPEATABLE READ, but InnoDB implicitly
converts all
plain SELECT statements to SELECT ... LOCK IN SHARE MODE if
autocommit
is disabled. If autocommit is enabled, the SELECT is its own
transaction. It therefore is known to be read only and can
be
serialized if performed as a consistent (non-locking) read
and need
not block for other transactions. (This means that to force
a plain
SELECT to block if other transactions have modified the
selected rows,
you should disable autocommit.)
 
Distributed XA transactions should always use this isolation
level.
 
Access Mode
 
These clauses appeared in MariaDB 10.0.
 
The access mode specifies whether the transaction is allowed
to write data or not. By default, transactions are in READ
WRITE mode (see the tx_read_only system variable). READ ONLY
mode allows the storage engine to apply optimizations that
cannot be used for transactions which write data. The only
exception to this rule is that read only transactions can
perform DDL statements on temporary tables.
 
It is not permitted to specify both READ WRITE and READ ONLY
in the same statement.
 
READ WRITE and READ ONLY can also be specified in the START
TRANSACTION statement, in which case the specified mode is
only valid for one transaction.

------ 
IS_FREE_LOCK(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Checks whether the lock named str is free to use (that is,
not locked).
Returns 1 if the lock is free (no one is using the lock),
 0 if the lock is in use, and NULL if an
error occurs (such as an incorrect argument, like an empty
string or NULL). str is case insensitive.
 
If the metadata_lock_info plugin is installed, the
Information Schema metadata_lock_info table contains
information about locks of this kind (as well as metadata
locks).
 
Statements using the IS_FREE_LOCK() function are not safe
for replication.

START SLAVE ["connection_name"] [SQL_THREAD] UNTIL
 MASTER_GTID_POS = 
START ALL SLAVES [thread_type [, thread_type]]
thread_type: IO_THREAD | SQL_THREAD
 
Description
----------- 
START SLAVE with no thread_type options starts both of the
slave
threads (see replication). The I/O thread reads events from
the master server and stores
them in the relay log. The SQL thread reads events from the
relay log
and executes them. START SLAVE requires the SUPER privilege.
 
If START SLAVE succeeds in starting the slave threads, it
returns
without any error. However, even in that case, it might be
that the
slave threads start and then later stop (for example,
because they do
not manage to connect to the master or read its binary log,
or some
other problem). START SLAVE does not warn you about this.
You must
check the slave's error log for error messages generated by
the slave
threads, or check that they are running satisfactorily with
SHOW SLAVE
STATUS.
 
START SLAVE UNTIL
 
START SLAVE UNTIL refers to the SQL_THREAD slave position at
which the SQL_THREAD replication will halt. If SQL_THREAD
isn't specified both threads are started.
 
Since version 10.0.2, START SLAVE UNTIL master_gtid_pos=xxx
has also been supported. See Global Transaction ID/START
SLAVE UNTIL master_gtid_pos=xxx for more details.
 
connection_name
 
The connection_name option was added as part of multi-source
replication added in MariaDB 10.0
 
If there is only one nameless master, or the default master
(as specified by the default_master_connection system
variable) is intended, connection_name can be omitted. If
provided, the START SLAVE statement will apply to the
specified master. connection_name is case-insensitive.
 
START ALL SLAVES
 
START ALL SLAVES starts all configured slaves (slaves with
master_host not empty) that were not started before. It will
give a note for all started connections. You can check the
notes with SHOW WARNINGS.

------ 
START TRANSACTION [transaction_property [,
transaction_property] ...] | BEGIN [WORK]
COMMIT [WORK] [AND [NO] CHAIN] [[NO] RELEASE]
ROLLBACK [WORK] [AND [NO] CHAIN] [[NO] RELEASE]
SET autocommit = {0 | 1}
 
transaction_property:
 WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT
 | READ WRITE
 | READ ONLY
 
Description
----------- 
The START TRANSACTION or BEGIN statement
begins a new transaction. COMMIT commits the current
transaction, making its changes permanent. ROLLBACK rolls
back the current transaction, canceling its changes. The SET
autocommit statement disables or enables the default
autocommit mode for the current session.
 
START TRANSACTION and SET autocommit = 1 implicitly commit
the current transaction, if any.
 
The optional WORK keyword is supported for
COMMIT and ROLLBACK, as are the
CHAIN and RELEASE clauses.
CHAIN and RELEASE can be used for
additional control over transaction completion. The value of
the
completion_type system variable determines the default
completion behavior.
 
The AND CHAIN clause causes a new transaction to begin as
soon as the current one ends, and the new transaction has
the same isolation
level as the just-terminated transaction. The RELEASE clause
causes the server to disconnect the current client session
after terminating
the current transaction. Including the NO keyword suppresses
CHAIN or RELEASE completion, which can be
useful if the completion_type system variable is set to
cause chaining or release completion by default.
 
Access Mode
 
These clauses appeared in MariaDB 10.0.
 
The access mode specifies whether the transaction is allowed
to write data or not. By default, transactions are in READ
WRITE mode (see the tx_read_only system variable). READ ONLY
mode allows the storage engine to apply optimizations that
cannot be used for transactions which write data. The only
exception to this rule is that read only transactions can
perform DDL statements on temporary tables.
 
It is not permitted to specify both READ WRITE and READ ONLY
in the same statement.
 
READ WRITE and READ ONLY can also be specified in the SET
TRANSACTION statement, in which case the specified mode is
valid for all sessions, or for all subsequent transaction
used by the current session.
 
autocommit
 
By default, MariaDB runs with autocommit mode enabled. This
means that as soon as you execute a statement that updates
(modifies) a table, MariaDB stores the update on disk to
make it permanent. To disable autocommit mode, use the
following statement:
 
SET autocommit=0;
 
After disabling autocommit mode by setting the autocommit
variable to zero, changes to transaction-safe tables (such
as those for InnoDB or
NDBCLUSTER) are not made permanent immediately. You must use
COMMIT to store your changes to disk or ROLLBACK to ignore
the changes.
 
To disable autocommit mode for a single series of
statements, use the START TRANSACTION statement.
 
DDL Statements
 
DDL statements (CREATE, ALTER, DROP) and administrative
statements (FLUSH, RESET, OPTIMIZE, ANALYZE, CHECK, REPAIR,
CACHE INDEX), and LOAD DATA INFILE, cause an implicit COMMIT
and start a new transaction. An exception to this rule are
the DDL that operate on temporary tables: you can CREATE,
ALTER and DROP them without causing any COMMIT, but those
actions cannot be rolled back. This means that if you call
ROLLBACK, the temporary tables you created in the
transaction will remain, while the rest of the transaction
will be rolled back.
 
Transactions cannot be used in Stored Functions or Triggers.
In Stored Procedures and Events BEGIN is not allowed, so you
should use START TRANSACTION instead.
 
A transaction acquires a metadata lock on every table it
accesses to prevent other connections from altering their
structure. The lock is released at the end of the
transaction. This happens even with non-transactional
storage engines (like MEMORY or CONNECT), so it makes sense
to use transactions with non-transactional tables.
 
in_transaction
 
The in_transaction system variable appeared in MariaDB 5.3.
 
It is a session-only, read-only variable that returns 1
inside a transaction, and 0 if not in a transaction.
 
WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT
 
The WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT option starts a consistent read
for storage engines such as XtraDB and InnoDB that can do
so, the same as if a START TRANSACTION followed by a SELECT
from any InnoDB table was issued. 
 
MariaDB 5.3 introduced enhancements to this feature. See
Enhancements for START TRANSACTION WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT.
 
Examples
-------- 
START TRANSACTION;
 
SELECT @A:=SUM(salary) FROM table1 WHERE type=1;
 
UPDATE table2 SET summary=@A WHERE type=1;
 
COMMIT;

.-STOP SLAVESyntax
------ 
STOP SLAVE ["connection_name"] [thread_type [,
thread_type] ... ]
 
STOP ALL SLAVES [thread_type [, thread_type]]
 
thread_type: IO_THREAD | SQL_THREAD
 
Description
----------- 
Stops the slave threads. STOP SLAVE requires the SUPER
privilege.
 
Like START SLAVE, this statement may be used with the
IO_THREAD and
SQL_THREAD options to name the thread or threads to be
stopped. In almost all cases, one never need to use the
thread_type options.
 
STOP SLAVE waits until any current replication event group
affecting
one or more non-transactional tables has finished executing
(if there
is any such replication group), or until the user issues a
KILL QUERY or KILL CONNECTION statement.
 
Note that STOP SLAVE doesn't delete the connection
permanently. Next time you execute START SLAVE or the
MariaDB server restarts, the slave connection is restored
with it's original arguments. If you want to delete a
connection, you should execute RESET SLAVE.
 
STOP ALL SLAVES
 
STOP ALL SLAVES stops all your running slaves. It will give
you a note for every stopped connection. You can check the
notes with SHOW WARNINGS.
 
connection_name
 
The connection_name option was added as part of multi-source
replication added in MariaDB 10.0
 
If there is only one nameless master, or the default master
(as specified by the default_master_connection system
variable) is intended, connection_name can be omitted. If
provided, the STOP SLAVE statement will apply to the
specified master. connection_name is case-insensitive.
 


URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/stop-slave/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/stop-slave/p7Transaction TimeoutsMariaDB has always had the wait_timeout and
interactive_timeout settings, which close connections after
a certain period of inactivity.
 
However, these are by default set to a long wait period. In
situations where transactions may be started, but not
committed or rolled back, more granular control and a
shorter timeout may be desirable so as to avoid locks being
held for too long.
 
MariaDB 10.3 introduced three new variables to handle this
situation.
idle_transaction_timeout (all transactions)
idle_write_transaction_timeout (write transactions - called
idle_readwrite_transaction_timeout until MariaDB 10.3.2)
idle_readonly_transaction_timeout (read transactions)
 
These accept a time in seconds to time out, by closing the
connection, transactions that are idle for longer than this
period. By default all are set to zero, or no timeout.
 
idle_transaction_timeout affects all transactions,
idle_write_transaction_timeout affects write transactions
only and idle_readonly_transaction_timeout affects read
transactions only. The latter two variables work
independently. However, if either is set along with
idle_transaction_timeout, the settings for
idle_write_transaction_timeout or
idle_readonly_transaction_timeout will take precedence.
 
Examples
-------- 
SET SESSION idle_transaction_timeout=2;
 
BEGIN;
 
SELECT * FROM t;
 
Empty set (0.000 sec)
## wait 3 seconds
SELECT * FROM t;
 
ERROR 2006 (HY000): MySQL server has gone away
 
SET SESSION idle_write_transaction_timeout=2;
 
BEGIN;
 
SELECT * FROM t;
 
Empty set (0.000 sec)
## wait 3 seconds
SELECT * FROM t;
 
Empty set (0.000 sec)
INSERT INTO t VALUES(1);

SET SESSION idle_transaction_timeout=2, SESSION
idle_readonly_transaction_timeout=10;
 
BEGIN;

URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/transaction-timeouts/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/transaction-timeouts/r�2WAIT and NOWAITMariaDB 10.3.0 introduced extended syntax so that it is
possible to set innodb_lock_wait_timeout and
lock_wait_timeout for the following statements:
 
Syntax
------ 
ALTER TABLE tbl_name [WAIT n|NOWAIT] ...
CREATE ... INDEX ON tbl_name (index_col_name, ...) [WAIT
n|NOWAIT] ...
DROP INDEX ... [WAIT n|NOWAIT]
DROP TABLE tbl_name [WAIT n|NOWAIT] ...
LOCK TABLE ... [WAIT n|NOWAIT]
OPTIMIZE TABLE tbl_name [WAIT n|NOWAIT]
RENAME TABLE tbl_name [WAIT n|NOWAIT] ...
SELECT ... FOR UPDATE [WAIT n|NOWAIT]
SELECT ... LOCK IN SHARE MODE [WAIT n|NOWAIT]
TRUNCATE TABLE tbl_name [WAIT n|NOWAIT]
 
Description
----------- 
The lock wait timeout can be explicitly set in the statement
by using either WAIT n (to set the wait in seconds) or
NOWAIT, in which case the statement will immediately fail if
the lock cannot be obtained. WAIT 0 is equivalent to NOWAIT.

Account LockingAccount locking was introduced in MariaDB 10.4.2.
 
Description
----------- 
Account locking permits privileged administrators to
lock/unlock user accounts. No new client connections will be
permitted if an account is locked (existing connections are
not affected).
 
User accounts can be locked at creation, with the CREATE
USER statement, or modified after creation with the ALTER
USER statement. For example:
 
CREATE USER 'lorin'@'localhost' ACCOUNT LOCK;
 
or
 
ALTER USER 'marijn'@'localhost' ACCOUNT LOCK;
 
The server will return an ER_ACCOUNT_HAS_BEEN_LOCKED error
when locked users attempt to connect:
 
mysql -ulorin
 ERROR 4151 (HY000): Access denied, this account is locked
 
The ALTER USER statement is also used to unlock a user:
 
ALTER USER 'lorin'@'localhost' ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
 
The SHOW CREATE USER statement will show whether the account
is locked:
 
SHOW CREATE USER 'marijn'@'localhost';
 
+-----------------------------------------------+
| CREATE USER for marijn@localhost |
+-----------------------------------------------+
| CREATE USER 'marijn'@'localhost' ACCOUNT LOCK |
+-----------------------------------------------+
 
as well as querying the mysql.global_priv table:
 
SELECT CONCAT(user, '@', host, ' => ',
JSON_DETAILED(priv)) FROM mysql.global_priv 
 WHERE user='marijn';
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| CONCAT(user, '@', host, ' => ', JSON_DETAILED(priv)) |
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| marijn@localhost => {
 "access": 0,
 "plugin": "mysql_native_password",
 "authentication_string": "",
 "account_locked": true,
 "password_last_changed": 1558017158
} |

IS_USED_LOCK(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Checks whether the lock named str is in use (that is,
locked). If so,
it returns the connection identifier of the client that
holds the
lock. Otherwise, it returns NULL. str is case insensitive.
 
If the metadata_lock_info plugin is installed, the
Information Schema metadata_lock_info table contains
information about locks of this kind (as well as metadata
locks).
 
Statements using the IS_USED_LOCK() function are not safe

DROP USERSyntax
------ 
DROP USER [IF EXISTS] user_name [, user_name] ...
 
Description
----------- 
The DROP USER statement removes one or more MariaDB
accounts. It removes
privilege rows for the account from all grant tables. To use
this statement,
you must have the global CREATE USER privilege
or the DELETE privilege for the mysql database.
Each account is named using the same format as for the
CREATE USER
statement; for example, 'jeffrey'@'localhost'. If you
specify
only the user name part of the account name, a host name
part of '%' is
used. For additional information about specifying account
names, see
CREATE USER.
 
Note that, if you specify an account that is currently
connected, it will not
be deleted until the connection is closed. The connection
will not be
automatically closed.
 
If any of the specified user accounts do not exist, ERROR
1396 (HY000)
results. If an error occurs, DROP USER will still drop the
accounts that do
not result in an error. Only one error is produced for all
users which have not
been dropped:
 
ERROR 1396 (HY000): Operation DROP USER failed for
'u1'@'%','u2'@'%'
 
Failed CREATE or DROP operations, for both users and roles,
produce the
same error code.
 
IF EXISTS
 
The IF EXISTS clause was added in MariaDB 10.1.3
 
If the IF EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a note
instead of an error if the user does not exist.
 
Examples
-------- 
DROP USER bob;
 
IF EXISTS:
 
DROP USER bob;
 
ERROR 1396 (HY000): Operation DROP USER failed for
'bob'@'%'
 
DROP USER IF EXISTS bob;
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
 
SHOW WARNINGS;

User Password ExpiryUser password expiry was introduced in MariaDB 10.4.3.
 
Password expiry permits administrators to expire user
passwords, either manually or automatically. 
 
System Variables
 
There are two system variables which affect password expiry:
default_password_lifetime, which determines the amount of
time between requiring the user to change their password. 0,
the default, means automatic password expiry is not active.
 
The second variable, disconnect_on_expired_password
determines whether a client is permitted to connect if their
password has expired, or whether they are permitted to
connect in sandbox mode, able to perform a limited subset of
queries related to resetting the password, in particular SET
PASSWORD and SET.
 
Setting a Password Expiry Limit for a User
 
Besides automatic password expiry, as determined by
default_password_lifetime, password expiry times can be set
on an individual user basis, overriding the global using the
CREATE USER or ALTER USER statements, for example:
 
CREATE USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE INTERVAL
120 DAY;
 
ALTER USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE INTERVAL
120 DAY;
 
Limits can be disabled by use of the NEVER keyword, for
example:
 
CREATE USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE NEVER;
 
ALTER USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE NEVER;
 
A manually set limit can be restored the system default by
use of DEFAULT, for example:
 
CREATE USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE DEFAULT;
 
ALTER USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE DEFAULT;
 
SHOW CREATE USER
 
The SHOW CREATE USER statement will display information
about the password expiry status of the user. Unlike MySQL,
it will not display if the user is unlocked, or if the
password expiry is set to default.
 
CREATE USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE INTERVAL
120 DAY;
 
CREATE USER 'konstantin'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE
NEVER;
 
CREATE USER 'amse'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE DEFAULT;
 
SHOW CREATE USER 'monty'@'localhost';
 
+------------------------------------------------------------------+
| CREATE USER for monty@localhost |
+------------------------------------------------------------------+
| CREATE USER 'monty'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE
INTERVAL 120 DAY |
+------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
SHOW CREATE USER 'konstantin'@'localhost';
 
+------------------------------------------------------------+
| CREATE USER for konstantin@localhost |
+------------------------------------------------------------+
| CREATE USER 'konstantin'@'localhost' PASSWORD EXPIRE
NEVER |
+------------------------------------------------------------+
 
SHOW CREATE USER 'amse'@'localhost';
 
+--------------------------------+
| CREATE USER for amse@localhost |
+--------------------------------+
| CREATE USER 'amse'@'localhost' |
+--------------------------------+
 
--connect-expired-password Client Option
 
The mysql client --connect-expired-password option notifies
the server that the client is prepared to handle expired
password sandbox mode (even if the --batch option was
specified).

----------- 
Returns the given value. When used to produce a result set
column,
 NAME_CONST() causes the column to have the given name. The
arguments should be constants.
 
This function is used internally when replicating stored
procedures. It makes little sense to use it explicitly in
SQL statements, and it was not supposed to be used like
that.

microseconds.
 
Statements using the SLEEP() function are not safe for

------ 
UUID_SHORT()
 
Description
----------- 
Returns a "short" universal identifier as a 64-bit
unsigned integer (rather
than a string-form 128-bit identifier as returned by the
UUID() function).
 
The value of UUID_SHORT() is guaranteed to be unique if the
following conditions hold:
The server_id of the current host is unique among your set
of master and
 slave servers
server_id is between 0 and 255
You don't set back your system time for your server between
mysqld restarts
You do not invoke UUID_SHORT() on average more than 16
 million times per second between mysqld restarts
 
The UUID_SHORT() return value is constructed this way:
 
 (server_id & 255)

NOT, !
 
Description
----------- 
Logical NOT. Evaluates to 1 if the operand is 0, to 0 if the

RENAME USERSyntax
------ 
RENAME USER old_user TO new_user
 [, old_user TO new_user] ...
 
Description
----------- 
The RENAME USER statement renames existing MariaDB accounts.
To use it,
you must have the global CREATE USER privilege
or the UPDATE privilege for the mysql database.
Each account is named using the same format as for the
CREATE USER
statement; for example, 'jeffrey'@'localhost'.
If you specify only the user name part of the account name,
a host
name part of '%' is used.
 
If any of the old user accounts do not exist or any of the
new user accounts already
exist, ERROR 1396 (HY000) results. If an error occurs,
RENAME USER
will still rename the accounts that do not result in an
error.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE USER 'donald', 'mickey';
 
RENAME USER 'donald' TO 'duck'@'localhost', 'mickey'
TO 'mouse'@'localhost';

REVOKEPrivileges
 
Syntax
------ 
REVOKE 
 priv_type [(column_list)]
 [, priv_type [(column_list)]] ...
 ON [object_type] priv_level
 FROM user [, user] ...
 
REVOKE ALL PRIVILEGES, GRANT OPTION
 FROM user [, user] ...
 
Description
----------- 
The REVOKE statement enables system administrators to revoke
privileges (or roles - see section below) from MariaDB
accounts. Each account is named using the same format
as for the GRANT statement; for example,
'jeffrey'@'localhost'. If you specify only the user name
part
of the account name, a host name part of '%' is used. For
details on the levels at which privileges exist, the
allowable
priv_type and priv_level values, and the
syntax for specifying users and passwords, see GRANT.
 
To use the first REVOKE syntax, you must have the
GRANT OPTION privilege, and you must have the privileges
that
you are revoking.
 
To revoke all privileges, use the second syntax, which drops
all
global, database, table, column, and routine privileges for
the named
user or users:
 
REVOKE ALL PRIVILEGES, GRANT OPTION FROM user [, user] ...
 
To use this REVOKE syntax, you must have the global
CREATE USER privilege or the
UPDATE privilege for the mysql database. See
GRANT.
 
Examples
-------- 
REVOKE SUPER ON *.* FROM 'alexander'@'localhost';
 
Roles
 
Roles were introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
REVOKE role [, role ...]
 FROM grantee [, grantee2 ... ]
 
Description
----------- 
REVOKE is also used to remove a role from a user or another
role that it's previously been assigned to. If a role has
previously been set as a default role, REVOKE does not
remove the record of the default role from the mysql.user
table. If the role is subsequently granted again, it will
again be the user's default. Use SET DEFAULT ROLE NONE to
explicitly remove this.
 
Before MariaDB 10.1.13, the REVOKE role statement was not
permitted in prepared statements.

CREATE ROLERoles were introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
CREATE [OR REPLACE] ROLE [IF NOT EXISTS] role 
 [WITH ADMIN 
 {CURRENT_USER | CURRENT_ROLE | user | role}]
 
Description
----------- 
The CREATE ROLE statement creates one or more MariaDB roles.
To
use it, you must have the global CREATE USER
privilege or the INSERT privilege for the mysql
database. For each account, CREATE ROLE creates a new row in
the
mysql.user table that has no privileges, and with the
corresponding is_role field set to Y. It also creates a
record in the
mysql.roles_mapping table.
 
If any of the specified roles already exist, ERROR 1396
(HY000) results. If
an error occurs, CREATE ROLE will still create the roles
that do not result
in an error. The maximum length for a role is 128
characters. Role names can be
quoted, as explained in the Identifier names page. Only
one error is produced for all roles which have not been
created:
 
ERROR 1396 (HY000): Operation CREATE ROLE failed for
'a','b','c'
 
Failed CREATE or DROP operations, for both users and roles,
produce the
same error code.
 
PUBLIC and NONE are reserved, and cannot be used as role
names.
 
Before MariaDB 10.1.13, the CREATE ROLE statement was not
permitted in prepared statements.
 
For valid identifiers to use as role names, see Identifier
Names.
 
WITH ADMIN
 
The optional WITH ADMIN clause determines whether the
current user, the
current role or another user or role has use of the newly
created role. If the
clause is omitted, WITH ADMIN CURRENT_USER is treated as the
default, which
means that the current user will be able to GRANT this role
to
users.
 
OR REPLACE
 
The OR REPLACE clause was added in MariaDB 10.1.3
 
If the optional OR REPLACE clause is used, it acts as a
shortcut for:
 
DROP ROLE IF EXISTS name;
 
CREATE ROLE name ...;
 
IF NOT EXISTS
 
The IF NOT EXISTS clause was added in MariaDB 10.1.3
 
When the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a
warning instead of an error if the specified role already
exists. Cannot be used together with the OR REPLACE clause.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE ROLE journalist;
 
CREATE ROLE developer WITH ADMIN lorinda;
 
The OR REPLACE and IF NOT EXISTS clauses:
 
CREATE ROLE journalist;
ERROR 1396 (HY000): Operation CREATE ROLE failed for
'journalist'
 
CREATE OR REPLACE ROLE journalist;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
 
CREATE ROLE IF NOT EXISTS journalist;

Description
----------- 
Logical AND. Evaluates to 1 if all operands are non-zero and
not NULL,

------ 
var_name := expr
 
Description
----------- 
Assignment operator for assigning a value. The value on the
right is assigned to the variable on left.
 
Unlike the = operator, := can always be used to assign a
value to a variable.
 
This operator works with both user-defined variables and
local variables.
 
When assigning the same value to several variables,
LAST_VALUE() can be useful.
 
Examples
-------- 
 SELECT @x := 10;
 
+----------+
| @x := 10 |
+----------+
| 10 |

SET PASSWORDSyntax
------ 
SET PASSWORD [FOR user] =
 {
 PASSWORD('some password')
 | OLD_PASSWORD('some password')
 | 'encrypted password'
 }
 
Description
----------- 
The SET PASSWORD statement assigns a password to an existing
MariaDB user
account.
 
If the password is specified using the PASSWORD() or
OLD_PASSWORD()
function, the literal text of the password should be given.
If the
password is specified without using either function, the
password
should be the already-encrypted password value as returned
by
PASSWORD().
 
OLD_PASSWORD() should only be used if your MariaDB/MySQL
clients are very old (< 4.0.0).
 
With no FOR clause, this statement sets the password for the
current
user. Any client that has connected to the server using a
non-anonymous
account can change the password for that account.
 
With a FOR clause, this statement sets the password for a
specific
account on the current server host. Only clients that have
the UPDATE
privilege for the mysql database can do this. The user value
should be
given in user_name@host_name format, where user_name and
host_name are
exactly as they are listed in the User and Host columns of
the
mysql.user table entry. 
 
The argument to PASSWORD() and the password given to MariaDB
clients can be of arbitrary length.
 
Authentication Plugin Support
 
In MariaDB 10.4 and later, SET PASSWORD (with or without
PASSWORD()) works for accounts authenticated via any
authentication plugin that supports passwords stored in the
mysql.global_priv table.
 
The ed25519, mysql_native_password, and mysql_old_password
authentication plugins store passwords in the
mysql.global_priv table.
 
If you run SET PASSWORD on an account that authenticates
with one of these authentication plugins that stores
passwords in the mysql.global_priv table, then the
PASSWORD() function is evaluated by the specific
authentication plugin used by the account. The
authentication plugin hashes the password with a method that
is compatible with that specific authentication plugin.
 
The unix_socket, named_pipe, gssapi, and pam authentication
plugins do not store passwords in the mysql.global_priv
table. These authentication plugins rely on other methods to
authenticate the user.
 
If you attempt to run SET PASSWORD on an account that
authenticates with one of these authentication plugins that
doesn't store a password in the mysql.global_priv table,
then MariaDB Server will raise a warning like the following:
 
SET PASSWORD is ignored for users authenticating via
unix_socket plugin
 
See Authentication from MariaDB 10.4 for an overview of
authentication changes in MariaDB 10.4.
 
MariaDB until 10.3
 
In MariaDB 10.3 and before, SET PASSWORD (with or without
PASSWORD()) only works for accounts authenticated via
mysql_native_password or mysql_old_password authentication
plugins
 
Passwordless User Accounts
 
User accounts do not always require passwords to login.
 
The unix_socket and named_pipe authentication plugins do not
require a password to authenticate the user.
 
The gssapi and pam authentication plugins may or may not
require a password to authenticate the user, depending on
the specific configuration.
 
The mysql_native_password and mysql_old_password
authentication plugins require passwords for authentication,
but the password can be blank. In that case, no password is
required.
 
If you provide a password while attempting to log into the
server as an account that doesn't require a password, then
MariaDB server will simply ignore the password.
 
In MariaDB 10.4 and later, a user account can be defined to
use multiple authentication plugins in a specific order of
preference. This specific scenario may be more noticeable in
these versions, since an account could be associated with
some authentication plugins that require a password, and
some that do not.
 
Example
 
For example, if you had an entry with User and
Host column values of 'bob' and 
'%.loc.gov', you would write the
statement like this:
 
SET PASSWORD FOR 'bob'@'%.loc.gov' =
PASSWORD('newpass');

DROP ROLERoles were introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
DROP ROLE [IF EXISTS] role_name [,role_name ...]
 
Description
----------- 
The DROP ROLE statement removes one or more MariaDB roles.
To use this
statement, you must have the global CREATE USER privilege or
the DELETE privilege for the mysql database.
 
DROP ROLE does not disable roles for connections which
selected them with SET ROLE. If a role has previously been
set as a default role, DROP ROLE does not remove the record
of the default role from the mysql.user table. If the role
is subsequently recreated and granted, it will again be the
user's default. Use SET DEFAULT ROLE NONE to explicitly
remove this.
 
If any of the specified user accounts do not exist, ERROR
1396 (HY000)
results. If an error occurs, DROP ROLE will still drop the
roles that
do not result in an error. Only one error is produced for
all roles which have not been dropped:
 
ERROR 1396 (HY000): Operation DROP ROLE failed for
'a','b','c'
 
Failed CREATE or DROP operations, for both users and roles,
produce the same error code.
 
Before MariaDB 10.1.13, the DROP ROLE statement was not
permitted in prepared statements.
 
IF EXISTS
 
The IF EXISTS clause was added in MariaDB 10.1.3
 
If the IF EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a
warning instead of an error if the role does not exist.
 
Examples
-------- 
DROP ROLE journalist;
 
The same thing using the optional IF EXISTS clause:
 
DROP ROLE journalist;
 
ERROR 1396 (HY000): Operation DROP ROLE failed for
'journalist'
 
DROP ROLE IF EXISTS journalist;
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
 
Note (Code 1975): Can't drop role 'journalist'; it
doesn't exist

/GROUP_CONCATSyntax
------ 
GROUP_CONCAT(expr)
 
Description
----------- 
This function returns a string result with the concatenated
non-NULL
values from a group. It returns NULL if there are no
non-NULL values.
 
The maximum returned length in bytes is determined by the
group_concat_max_len server system variable, which defaults
to 1M (>= MariaDB 10.2.4) or 1K (

.STDDEV_SAMPSyntax
------ 
STDDEV_SAMP(expr)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the sample standard deviation of expr (the square
root of VAR_SAMP()).
 
It is an aggregate function, and so can be used with the
GROUP BY clause.
 
From MariaDB 10.2.2, STDDEV_SAMP() can be used as a window
function.
 
STDDEV_SAMP() returns NULL if there were no matching rows.

Description
----------- 
The BENCHMARK() function executes the expression expr
repeatedly count
times. It may be used to time how quickly MariaDB processes
the
expression. The result value is always 0. The intended use
is from
within the mysql client, which reports query execution
times.

Roles OverviewRoles were introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Description
----------- 
A role bundles a number of privileges together. It assists
larger organizations where, typically, a number of users
would have the same privileges, and, previously, the only
way to change the privileges for a group of users was by
changing each user's privileges individually. 
 
Alternatively, multiple external users could have been
assigned the same user, and there would have been no way to
see which actual user was responsible for which action.
 
With roles, managing this is easy. For example, there could
be a number of users assigned to a journalist role, with
identical privileges. Changing the privileges for all the
journalists is a matter of simply changing the role's
privileges, while the individual user is still linked with
any changes that take place.
 
Roles are created with the CREATE ROLE statement, and
dropped with the DROP ROLE statement. Roles are then
assigned to a user with an extension to the GRANT statement,
while privileges are assigned to a role in the regular way
with GRANT. Similarly, the REVOKE statement can be used to
both revoke a role from a user, or revoke a privilege from a
role.
 
Once a user has connected, he can obtain all privileges
associated with a role by setting a role with the SET ROLE
statement. The CURRENT_ROLE function returns the currently
set role for the session, if any.
 
Only roles granted directly to a user can be set, roles
granted to other roles cannot. Instead the privileges
granted to a role, which is, in turn, granted to another
role (grantee), will be immediately available to any user
who sets this second grantee role.
 
Roles were implemented as a GSoC 2013 project by Vicentiu
Ciorbaru. 
 
The SET DEFAULT ROLE statement allows one to set a default
role for a user. A default role is automatically enabled
when a user connects (an implicit SET ROLE statement is
executed immediately after a connection is established).
 
System Tables
 
Information about roles and who they've been granted to can
be found in the Information Schema APPLICABLE_ROLES table as
well as the mysql.ROLES_MAPPING table.
 
The Information Schema ENABLED_ROLES table shows the enabled
roles for the current session.
 
Examples
-------- 
Creating a role and granting a privilege:
 
CREATE ROLE journalist;
 
GRANT SHOW DATABASES ON *.* TO journalist;
 
GRANT journalist to hulda;
 
Note, that hulda has no SHOW DATABASES privilege, even
though she was granted the journalist role. She needs to set
the role first:
 
SHOW DATABASES;
 
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
+--------------------+
 
SELECT CURRENT_ROLE;
 
+--------------+
| CURRENT_ROLE |
+--------------+
| NULL |
+--------------+
 
SET ROLE journalist;
 
SELECT CURRENT_ROLE;
 
+--------------+
| CURRENT_ROLE |
+--------------+
| journalist |
+--------------+
 
SHOW DATABASES;
 
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| ... |
| information_schema |
| mysql |
| performance_schema |
| test |
| ... |
+--------------------+
 
SET ROLE NONE;
 
Roles can be granted to roles:
 
CREATE ROLE writer;
 
GRANT SELECT ON data.* TO writer;
 
GRANT writer TO journalist;
 
But one does not need to set a role granted to a role. For
example, hulda will automatically get all writer privileges
when she sets the journalist role:
 
SELECT CURRENT_ROLE;
 
+--------------+
| CURRENT_ROLE |
+--------------+
| NULL |
+--------------+
 
SHOW TABLES FROM data;
 
Empty set (0.01 sec)
 
SET ROLE journalist;
 
SELECT CURRENT_ROLE;
 
+--------------+
| CURRENT_ROLE |
+--------------+
| journalist |
+--------------+
 
SHOW TABLES FROM data;
 
+------------------------------+
| Tables_in_data |
+------------------------------+
| set1 |
| ... |
+------------------------------+
 
Roles and Views (and Stored Routines)
 
When a user sets a role, he, in a sense, has two identities
with two associated sets of privileges.
But a view (or a stored routine) can have only one definer.
So, when a view (or a stored routine) is created with the
SQL SECURITY DEFINER, one can specify whether the definer
should be CURRENT_USER (and the view will have none of the
privileges of the user's role) or CURRENT_ROLE (in this
case, the view will use role's privileges, but none of the
user's privileges). As a result, sometimes one can create a
view that is impossible to use.
 
CREATE ROLE r1;
 
GRANT ALL ON db1.* TO r1;
 
GRANT r1 TO foo@localhost;
 
GRANT ALL ON db.* TO foo@localhost;
 
SELECT CURRENT_USER

for replication.
 
Syntax
------ 
BINLOG_GTID_POS(binlog_filename,binlog_offset)
 
Description
----------- 
The BINLOG_GTID_POS() function takes as input an old-style
binary log position in the form of a file name and a file
offset. It looks up the position in the current binlog, and
returns a string representation of the corresponding GTID
position. If the position is not found in the current
binlog, NULL is returned.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT BINLOG_GTID_POS("master-bin.000001", 600);

------ 
COLLATION(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the collation of the string argument. If str is not
a string, it is considered as a binary string (so the
function returns 'binary'). This applies to NULL, too. The
return value is a string in the utf8 character set.
 
See Character Sets and Collations.

-------- 
SELECT COLLATION('abc');
+-------------------+
| COLLATION('abc') |

SET ROLERoles were introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
SET ROLE { role | NONE }
 
Description
----------- 
The SET ROLE statement enables a role, along with all of its
associated permissions, for the current session. To unset a
role, use NONE .
 
If a role that doesn't exist, or to which the user has not
been assigned, is specified, an ERROR 1959 (OP000): Invalid
role specification error occurs.
 
From MariaDB 10.1.1, an automatic SET ROLE is implicitly
performed when a user connects if that user has been
assigned a default role. See SET DEFAULT ROLE.
 
Example
 
SELECT CURRENT_ROLE;
 
+--------------+
| CURRENT_ROLE |
+--------------+
| NULL |
+--------------+
 
SET ROLE staff;
 
SELECT CURRENT_ROLE;
 
+--------------+
| CURRENT_ROLE |
+--------------+
| staff |
+--------------+
 
SET ROLE NONE;
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

SET DEFAULT ROLEDefault roles were implemented in MariaDB 10.1.1.
 
Syntax
------ 
SET DEFAULT ROLE { role | NONE } [ FOR user@host ]
 
Description
----------- 
The SET DEFAULT ROLE statement sets a default role for a
specified (or current) user. A default role is automatically
enabled when a user connects (an implicit SET ROLE statement
is executed immediately after a connection is established).
 
To be able to set a role as a default, one needs the
privileges to enable this role (if you cannot do SET ROLE X,
you won't be able to do SET DEFAULT ROLE X). To set a
default role for another user one needs to have write access
to the mysql database.
 
To remove a user's default role, use SET DEFAULT ROLE NONE
[ FOR user@host ]. The record of the default role is not
removed if the role is dropped or revoked, so if the role is
subsequently re-created or granted, it will again be the
user's default role.
 
The default role is stored in a new column in the mysql.user
table, and currently viewing this table is the only way to
see which role has been assigned to a user as the default. 
 
Examples
-------- 
Setting a default role for the current user:
 
SET DEFAULT ROLE journalist;
 
Removing a default role from the current user:
 
SET DEFAULT ROLE NONE;

------ 
AES_ENCRYPT(str,key_str)
 
Description
----------- 
AES_ENCRYPT() and AES_DECRYPT() allow encryption and
decryption of
data using the official AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)
algorithm,
previously known as "Rijndael." Encoding with a 128-bit
key length is
used, but you can extend it up to 256 bits by modifying the
source. We
chose 128 bits because it is much faster and it is secure
enough for
most purposes.
 
AES_ENCRYPT() encrypts a string str using the key key_str,
and returns a binary string.
 
AES_DECRYPT() decrypts the encrypted string and returns the
original
string.
 
The input arguments may be any length. If either argument is
NULL, the result of this function is also NULL.
 
Because AES is a block-level algorithm, padding is used to
encode
uneven length strings and so the result string length may be
calculated using this formula:
 
16 x (trunc(string_length / 16) + 1)
 
If AES_DECRYPT() detects invalid data or incorrect padding,
it returns
NULL. However, it is possible for AES_DECRYPT() to return a
non-NULL
value (possibly garbage) if the input data or the key is
invalid.
 
Examples
-------- 
INSERT INTO t VALUES
(AES_ENCRYPT('text',SHA2('password',512)));

------ 
COMPRESS(string_to_compress)
 
Description
----------- 
Compresses a string and returns the result as a binary
string. This
function requires MariaDB to have been compiled with a
compression
library such as zlib. Otherwise, the return value is always
NULL. The
compressed string can be uncompressed with UNCOMPRESS().
 
The have_compress server system variable indicates whether a
compression library is present. 
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT LENGTH(COMPRESS(REPEAT('a',1000)));
+------------------------------------+
| LENGTH(COMPRESS(REPEAT('a',1000))) |
+------------------------------------+
| 21 |

Description
----------- 
Returns the connection ID (thread ID) for the connection.
Every
thread (including events) has an ID that is unique among the
set of currently
connected clients.
 
Until MariaDB 10.3.1, returns MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG, or

------ 
DES_DECRYPT(crypt_str[,key_str])
 
Description
----------- 
Decrypts a string encrypted with DES_ENCRYPT(). If an error
occurs,
this function returns NULL.
 
This function works only if MariaDB has been configured with
TLS
support.
 
If no key_str argument is given, DES_DECRYPT() examines the
first byte
of the encrypted string to determine the DES key number that
was used
to encrypt the original string, and then reads the key from
the DES
key file to decrypt the message. For this to work, the user
must have
the SUPER privilege. The key file can be specified with the
--des-key-file server option.
 
If you pass this function a key_str argument, that string is
used as
the key for decrypting the message.
 
If the crypt_str argument does not appear to be an encrypted
string,
MariaDB returns the given crypt_str.

------ 
DES_ENCRYPT(str[,{key_num|key_str}])
 
Description
----------- 
Encrypts the string with the given key using the Triple-DES
algorithm.
 
This function works only if MariaDB has been configured with
TLS support.
 
The encryption key to use is chosen based on the second
argument to
DES_ENCRYPT(), if one was given. With no argument, the first
key from
the DES key file is used. With a key_num argument, the given
key 
number (0-9) from the DES key file is used. With a key_str
argument,
the given key string is used to encrypt str. 
 
The key file can be specified with the --des-key-file server
option.
 
The return string is a binary string where the first
character is 
CHAR(128 | key_num). If an error occurs, DES_ENCRYPT()
returns NULL.
 
The 128 is added to make it easier to recognize an encrypted
key. If
you use a string key, key_num is 127.
 
The string length for the result is given by this formula:
 
new_len = orig_len + (8 - (orig_len % 8)) + 1
 
Each line in the DES key file has the following format:
 
key_num des_key_str
 
Each key_num value must be a number in the range from 0 to
9. Lines in
the file may be in any order. des_key_str is the string that
is used
to encrypt the message. There should be at least one space
between the
number and the key. The first key is the default key that is
used if
you do not specify any key argument to DES_ENCRYPT().
 
You can tell MariaDB to read new key values from the key
file with the
FLUSH DES_KEY_FILE statement. This requires the RELOAD
privilege.
 
One benefit of having a set of default keys is that it gives
applications a way to check for the existence of encrypted
column
values, without giving the end user the right to decrypt
those values.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT customer_address FROM customer_table 
 WHERE crypted_credit_card =
DES_ENCRYPT('credit_card_number');

------ 
ENCODE(str,pass_str)
 
Description
----------- 
ENCODE is not considered cryptographically secure, and
should not be used for password encryption.
 
Encrypt str using pass_str as the password. To decrypt the
result, use
DECODE().
 
The result is a binary string of the same length as str.
 
The strength of the encryption is based on how good the
random generator is. 
 
It is not recommended to rely on the encryption performed by
the ENCODE function. Using a salt value (changed when a
password is updated) will improve matters somewhat, but for
storing passwords, consider a more cryptographically secure
function, such as SHA2().
 
Examples
-------- 
ENCODE('not so secret text',
CONCAT('random_salt','password'))

------ 
ENCRYPT(str[,salt])
 
Description
----------- 
Encrypts a string using the Unix crypt() system call,
returning an encrypted binary string. The salt argument
should be a string with at least two characters or the
returned result will be NULL. If no salt argument is given,
a random value of sufficient length is used.
 
It is not recommended to use ENCRYPT() with utf16, utf32 or
ucs2 multi-byte character sets because the crypt() system
call expects a string terminated with a zero byte.
 
Note that the underlying crypt() system call may have some
limitations, such as ignoring all but the first eight
characters.
 
If the have_crypt system variable is set to NO (because the
crypt() system call is not available), the ENCRYPT function
will always return NULL.

-------- 
SELECT ENCRYPT('encrypt me');

| ENCRYPT('encrypt me') |

------ 
OLD_PASSWORD(str)
 
Description
----------- 
OLD_PASSWORD() was added to MySQL when the implementation of

PASSWORD() was changed to improve security. OLD_PASSWORD()
returns the
value of the old (pre-MySQL 4.1) implementation of
PASSWORD() as a
string, and is intended to permit you to reset passwords for
any
pre-4.1 clients that need to connect to a more recent MySQL
server version, or any version of MariaDB,
without locking them out.
 
As of MariaDB 5.5, the return value is a nonbinary string in
the connection character set and collation, determined by
the values of the character_set_connection and
collation_connection system variables. Before 5.5, the
return value was a binary string.
 
The return value is 16 bytes in length, or NULL if the
argument was NULL.

SHA1(str), SHA(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Calculates an SHA-1 160-bit checksum for the string str, as
described in
RFC 3174 (Secure Hash Algorithm).
 
The value is returned as a string of 40 hex digits, or NULL
if the argument was NULL. As of MariaDB 5.5, the return
value is a nonbinary string in the connection character set
and collation, determined by the values of the
character_set_connection and collation_connection system
variables. Before 5.5, the return value was a binary string.

Syntax
------ 
SHA2(str,hash_len)
 
Description
----------- 
Given a string str, calculates an SHA-2 checksum, which is
considered more cryptographically secure than its SHA-1
equivalent. The SHA-2 family includes SHA-224, SHA-256,
SHA-384, and SHA-512, and the hash_len must correspond to
one of these, i.e. 224, 256, 384 or 512. 0 is equivalent to
256.
 
The return value is a nonbinary string in the connection
character set and collation, determined by the values of the
character_set_connection and collation_connection system
variables. 
 
NULL is returned if the hash length is not valid, or the
string str is NULL.
 
SHA2 will only work if MariaDB was has been configured with
TLS support.

h-UNCOMPRESSSyntax
------ 
UNCOMPRESS(string_to_uncompress)
 
Description
----------- 
Uncompresses a string compressed by the COMPRESS() function.
If the
argument is not a compressed value, the result is NULL. This
function
requires MariaDB to have been compiled with a compression
library such
as zlib. Otherwise, the return value is always NULL. The
have_compress server system variable indicates whether a
compression library is present. 
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT UNCOMPRESS(COMPRESS('a string'));

------ 
UNCOMPRESSED_LENGTH(compressed_string)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the length that the compressed string had before

UNCOMPRESSED_LENGTH() returns NULL or an incorrect result if
the string is not compressed.
 
Until MariaDB 10.3.1, returns MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG, or
bigint(10), in all cases. From MariaDB 10.3.1, returns
MYSQL_TYPE_LONG, or int(10), when the result would fit
within 32-bits.

���+GET_LOCKSyntax
------ 
GET_LOCK(str,timeout)
 
Description
----------- 
Tries to obtain a lock with a name given by the string str,
using a timeout of timeout seconds. Returns 1 if the lock
was obtained successfully, 0 if the attempt timed out (for
example, because another client has previously locked the
name), or NULL if an error occurred (such as running out of
memory or the thread was killed with mysqladmin kill).
 
A lock is released with RELEASE_LOCK(), when the connection
terminates (either normally or abnormally), or before
MariaDB 10.0.2, when the connection executes another
GET_LOCK statement. From MariaDB 10.0.2, a connection can
hold multiple locks at the same time, so a lock that is no
longer needed needs to be explicitly released.
 
The IS_FREE_LOCK function returns whether a specified lock a
free or not, and the IS_USED_LOCK whether the function is in
use or not.
 
Locks obtained with GET_LOCK() do not interact with
transactions. That is, committing a transaction does not
release any such locks obtained during the transaction.
 
From MariaDB 10.0.2, it is also possible to recursively set
the same lock. If a lock with the same name is set n times,
it needs to be released n times as well. 
 
str is case insensitive for GET_LOCK() and related
functions. If str is an empty string or NULL, GET_LOCK()
returns NULL and does nothing. From MariaDB 10.2.2, timeout
supports microseconds. Before then, it was rounded to the
closest integer.
 
If the metadata_lock_info plugin is installed, locks
acquired with this function are visible in the Information
Schema METADATA_LOCK_INFO table.
 
This function can be used to implement application locks or
to simulate record locks. Names are locked on a server-wide
basis. If a name has been locked by one client, GET_LOCK()
blocks any request by another client for a lock with the
same name. This allows clients that agree on a given lock
name to use the name to perform cooperative advisory
locking. But be aware that it also allows a client that is
not among the set of cooperating clients to lock a name,
either inadvertently or deliberately, and thus prevent any
of the cooperating clients from locking that name. One way
to reduce the likelihood of this is to use lock names that
are database-specific or application-specific. For example,
use lock names of the form db_name.str or app_name.str.
 
Statements using the GET_LOCK() function are not safe for
replication.
 
The patch to permit multiple locks was contributed by
Konstantin "Kostja" Osipov (MDEV-3917).
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT GET_LOCK('lock1',10);
+----------------------+

+-----------------------+-----------------------+
| IS_FREE_LOCK('lock2') | IS_USED_LOCK('lock2') |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
| 1 | NULL |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
 
From MariaDB 10.0.2, multiple locks can be held:
 
SELECT GET_LOCK('lock2',10);
+----------------------+
| GET_LOCK('lock2',10) |
+----------------------+
| 1 |
+----------------------+
 
SELECT IS_FREE_LOCK('lock1'), IS_FREE_LOCK('lock2');
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
| IS_FREE_LOCK('lock1') | IS_FREE_LOCK('lock2') |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
| 0 | 0 |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
 
SELECT RELEASE_LOCK('lock1'), RELEASE_LOCK('lock2');
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
| RELEASE_LOCK('lock1') | RELEASE_LOCK('lock2') |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
| 1 | 1 |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
 
Before MariaDB 10.0.2, a connection could only hold a single
lock:
 
SELECT GET_LOCK('lock2',10);
+----------------------+
| GET_LOCK('lock2',10) |
+----------------------+
| 1 |
+----------------------+
 
SELECT IS_FREE_LOCK('lock1'), IS_FREE_LOCK('lock2');
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
| IS_FREE_LOCK('lock1') | IS_FREE_LOCK('lock2') |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
| 1 | 0 |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
 
SELECT RELEASE_LOCK('lock1'), RELEASE_LOCK('lock2');
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
| RELEASE_LOCK('lock1') | RELEASE_LOCK('lock2') |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
| NULL | 1 |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
 
From MariaDB 10.0.2, it is possible to hold the same lock
recursively. This example is viewed using the
metadata_lock_info plugin:

P;BLOB and TEXT Data TypesDescription
----------- 
A BLOB is a binary large object that can hold a variable
amount of
data. The four BLOB types are 
TINYBLOB,
BLOB, 
MEDIUMBLOB, and
LONGBLOB.
 
These differ only in the maximum length of the values they
can hold. 
 
The TEXT types are 
TINYTEXT,
TEXT,
MEDIUMTEXT, and
LONGTEXT.
JSON (alias for LONGTEXT)
 
These correspond to the four BLOB types and have the same
maximum lengths and storage requirements.
 
Starting from MariaDB 10.2.1, BLOB and TEXT columns can have
a DEFAULT value.

��3MASTER_GTID_WAITMASTER_GTID_WAIT() was included in MariaDB 10.0.9.
 
Syntax
------ 
MASTER_GTID_WAIT(gtid-list[, timeout)
 
Description
----------- 
This function takes a string containing a comma-separated
list of global transaction id's
(similar to the value of, for example, gtid_binlog_pos). It
waits until the value of gtid_slave_pos has the same or
higher seq_no within all replication domains specified in
the gtid-list; in other words, it waits until the slave has
reached the specified GTID position.
 
An optional second argument gives a timeout in seconds. If
the timeout
expires before the specified GTID position is reached, then
the function
returns -1. Passing NULL or a negative number for the
timeout means no timeout, and the function will wait
indefinitely.
 
 If the wait completes without a timeout, 0 is returned.
Passing NULL for the
 gtid-list makes the function return NULL immediately,
without waiting.
 
The gtid-list may be the empty string, in which case
MASTER_GTID_WAIT()
returns immediately. If the gtid-list contains fewer domains
than
gtid_slave_pos, then only those domains are waited upon. If
gtid-list
contains a domain that is not present in @@gtid_slave_pos,
then
MASTER_GTID_WAIT() will wait until an event containing such
domain_id arrives
on the slave (or until timed out or killed).
 
MASTER_GTID_WAIT() can be useful to ensure that a slave has
caught up to
a master. Simply take the value of gtid_binlog_pos on the
master, and use it in a MASTER_GTID_WAIT() call on the
slave; when the call completes, the slave
will have caught up with that master position.
 
MASTER_GTID_WAIT() can also be used in client applications
together with the
last_gtid session variable. This is useful in a
read-scaleout replication setup, where the application
writes to a single master but divides the
reads out to a number of slaves to distribute the load. In
such a setup, there
is a risk that an application could first do an update on
the master, and then
a bit later do a read on a slave, and if the slave is not
fast enough, the
data read from the slave might not include the update just
made, possibly
confusing the application and/or the end-user. One way to
avoid this is to
request the value of last_gtid on the master just after the
update. Then
before doing the read on the slave, do a MASTER_GTID_WAIT()
on the value
obtained from the master; this will ensure that the read is
not performed
until the slave has replicated sufficiently far for the
update to have become
visible.
 
Note that MASTER_GTID_WAIT() can be used even if the slave
is configured not
to use GTID for connections (CHANGE MASTER TO
master_use_gtid=no). This is
because from MariaDB 10, GTIDs are always logged on the
master server, and
always recorded on the slave servers.
 
Differences to MASTER_POS_WAIT()
 
MASTER_GTID_WAIT() is global; it waits for any master
connection to reach
 the specified GTID position. MASTER_POS_WAIT() works only
against a
 specific connection. This also means that while
MASTER_POS_WAIT() aborts if
 its master connection is terminated with STOP SLAVE or due
to an error,
 MASTER_GTID_WAIT() continues to wait while slaves are
stopped.
 
MASTER_GTID_WAIT() can take its timeout as a floating-point
value, so a
 timeout in fractional seconds is supported, eg.
MASTER_GTID_WAIT("0-1-100",
 0.5). (The minimum wait is one microsecond, 0.000001
seconds).
 
MASTER_GTID_WAIT() allows one to specify a timeout of zero
in order to do a
 non-blocking check to see if the slaves have progressed to
a specific GTID position
 (MASTER_POS_WAIT() takes a zero timeout as meaning an
infinite wait). To do
 an infinite MASTER_GTID_WAIT(), specify a negative timeout,
or omit the
 timeout argument.
 
MASTER_GTID_WAIT() does not return the number of events
executed since the
 wait started, nor does it return NULL if a slave thread is
stopped. It
 always returns either 0 for successful wait completed, or
-1 for timeout
 reached (or NULL if the specified gtid-pos is NULL).
 
Since MASTER_GTID_WAIT() looks only at the seq_no part of
the GTIDs, not the
server_id, care is needed if a slave becomes diverged from
another server so
that two different GTIDs with the same seq_no (in the same
domain) arrive at
the same server. This situation is in any case best avoided;
setting
gtid_strict_mode is recommended, as this will prevent any
such out-of-order sequence numbers from ever being
replicated on a slave.

Syntax
------ 
MASTER_POS_WAIT(log_name,log_pos[,timeout,["connection_name"]])
 
Description
----------- 
This function is useful in replication for controlling
master/slave synchronization. It blocks until the slave has
read and applied all updates up to the specified position
(log_name,log_pos) in the master log. The return value is
the number of log events the slave had to wait for to
advance to the specified position. The function returns NULL
if
the slave SQL thread is not started, the slave's master
information is not
initialized, the arguments are incorrect, or an error
occurs. It returns -1 if
the timeout has been exceeded. If the slave SQL thread stops
while
 MASTER_POS_WAIT() is waiting, the function returns NULL. If
the slave is past the specified position, the function
returns immediately.
 
If a timeout value is specified, MASTER_POS_WAIT() stops
waiting when timeout seconds have elapsed. timeout must be
greater than 0; a
zero or negative timeout means no timeout.
 
The connection_name is used when you are using
multi-source-replication. If you don't specify it, it's
set to the value of the default_master_connection system
variable.
 
Statements using the MASTER_POS_WAIT() function are not safe
for replication.

RELEASE_LOCK(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Releases the lock named by the string str that was obtained
with GET_LOCK(). Returns 1 if the lock was released, 0 if
the lock was not established by this thread (in which case
the lock is not
released), and NULL if the named lock did not exist. The
lock does not exist if it was never obtained by a call to
GET_LOCK() or if it has previously been released.
 
MariaDB until 10.0.1
 
Before 10.0.2, GET_LOCK() released the existing lock, if
any. Since 10.0.2 this does not happen, because multiple
locks are allowed.
 
str is case insensitive. If str is an empty string or NULL,
RELEASE_LOCK() returns NULL and does nothing.
 
Statements using the RELEASE_LOCK() function are not safe
for replication.
 
The DO statement is convenient to use with RELEASE_LOCK().

UUID()
 
Description
----------- 
Returns a Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) generated
according to "DCE 1.1:
Remote Procedure Call" (Appendix A) CAE (Common
Applications Environment)
Specifications published by The Open Group in October
1997 
(Document Number C706).
 
A UUID is designed as a number that is globally unique in
space and time. Two
calls to UUID() are expected to generate two different
values, even if these calls are performed on two separate
computers that are
not connected to each other.
 
A UUID is a 128-bit number represented by a utf8 string of
five
hexadecimal numbers in aaaaaaaa-bbbb-cccc-dddd-eeeeeeeeeeee
format:
The first three numbers are generated from a timestamp.
The fourth number preserves temporal uniqueness in case the
timestamp value
 loses monotonicity (for example, due to daylight saving
time).
The fifth number is an IEEE 802 node number that provides
spatial uniqueness.
 A random number is substituted if the latter is not
available (for example,
 because the host computer has no Ethernet card, or we do
not know how to find
 the hardware address of an interface on your operating
system). In this case,
 spatial uniqueness cannot be guaranteed. Nevertheless, a
collision should
 have very low probability.
 
Currently, the MAC address of an interface is taken into
account only on FreeBSD and Linux. On other operating
systems, MariaDB uses a randomly generated 48-bit number.
 
Statements using the UUID() function are not safe for
replication.
 
UUID() results are intended to be unique, but cannot always
be relied upon to unpredictable and unguessable, so should
not be relied upon for these purposes.

VALUES(col_name) 
 
Description
----------- 
In an INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE statement, you can
use the VALUES(col_name) function in the UPDATE clause to
refer to column values from the INSERT portion of the
statement. In other words, VALUES(col_name) in the UPDATE
clause refers to the value of col_name that would be
inserted, had no duplicate-key conflict occurred. This
function is especially useful in multiple-row inserts.
 
The VALUES() function is meaningful only in INSERT ... ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE statements and returns NULL otherwise.
 
In MariaDB 10.3.3 this function was renamed to VALUE(),
because it's incompatible with the standard Table Value
Constructors syntax, implemented in MariaDB 10.3.3.
 
The VALUES() function can still be used even from MariaDB
10.3.3, but only in INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE
statements; it's a syntax error otherwise.

------ 
OR, ||
 
Description
----------- 
Logical OR. When both operands are non-NULL, the result is 1
if any
operand is non-zero, and 0 otherwise. With a NULL operand,
the result
is 1 if the other operand is non-zero, and NULL otherwise.
If both
operands are NULL, the result is NULL.
 
For this operator, short-circuit evaluation can be used.
 
Note that, if the PIPES_AS_CONCAT SQL_MODE is set, || is
used as a string concatenation operator. This means that a
|| b is the same as CONCAT(a,b). See CONCAT() for details.
 
Oracle Mode
 
In Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3, || ignores NULL.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT 1 || 1;
 
+--------+
| 1 || 1 |
+--------+
| 1 |
+--------+
 
SELECT 1 || 0;
 
+--------+

------ 
XOR
 
Description
----------- 
XOR stands for eXclusive OR. Returns NULL if either operand
is NULL. For non-NULL
operands, evaluates to 1 if an odd number of operands is
non-zero,
otherwise 0 is returned.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT 1 XOR 1;
 
+---------+
| 1 XOR 1 |
+---------+
| 0 |
+---------+
 
SELECT 1 XOR 0;
 
+---------+
| 1 XOR 0 |
+---------+
| 1 |
+---------+
 
SELECT 1 XOR NULL;
 
+------------+
| 1 XOR NULL |
+------------+
| NULL |
+------------+
 
In the following example, the right 1 XOR 1 is evaluated
first, and returns 0. Then, 1 XOR 0 is evaluated, and 1 is
returned.
 
SELECT 1 XOR 1 XOR 1;
 
+---------------+
| 1 XOR 1 XOR 1 |
+---------------+
| 1 |
+---------------+

------ 
identifier = expr
 
Description
----------- 
The equal sign is used as both an assignment operator in
certain contexts, and as a comparison operator. When used as
assignment operator, the value on the right is assigned to
the variable (or column, in some contexts) on the left.
 
Since its use can be ambiguous, unlike the := assignment
operator, the = assignment operator cannot be used in all
contexts, and is only valid as part of a SET statement, or
the SET clause of an UPDATE statement
 
This operator works with both user-defined variables and
local variables.
 
Examples
-------- 
UPDATE table_name SET x = 2 WHERE x > 100;
 
SET @x = 1, @y := 2;

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/assignment-operators-assignment-operator/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/assignment-operators-assignment-operator/��=Stored Aggregate FunctionsThe ability to create stored aggregate functions was added
in MariaDB 10.3.3.
 
Aggregate functions are functions that are computed over a
sequence of rows and return one result for the sequence of
rows.
 
Creating a custom aggregate function is done using the
CREATE FUNCTION statement with two main differences:
The addition of the AGGREGATE keyword, so CREATE AGGREGATE
FUNCTION
The FETCH GROUP NEXT ROW instruction inside the loop
Oracle PL/SQL compatibility using SQL/PL is provided
 
Standard Syntax
 
CREATE AGGREGATE FUNCTION function_name (parameters) RETURNS
return_type
BEGIN
 All types of declarations
 DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND RETURN return_val;
 LOOP
 FETCH GROUP NEXT ROW; // fetches next row from table
 other instructions
 END LOOP;
END
 
Stored aggregate functions were a 2016 Google Summer of Code
project by Varun Gupta.
 
Using SQL/PL
 
SET sql_mode=Oracle;
DELIMITER //
 
CREATE AGGREGATE FUNCTION function_name (parameters) RETURN
return_type
 declarations
BEGIN
 LOOP
 FETCH GROUP NEXT ROW; -- fetches next row from table
 -- other instructions
 
 END LOOP;
EXCEPTION
 WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
 RETURN return_val;
END //
 
DELIMITER ;
 
Examples
-------- 
First a simplified example:
 
CREATE TABLE marks(stud_id INT, grade_count INT);
 
INSERT INTO marks VALUES (1,6), (2,4), (3,7), (4,5), (5,8);
 
SELECT * FROM marks;
 
+---------+-------------+
| stud_id | grade_count |
+---------+-------------+
| 1 | 6 |
| 2 | 4 |
| 3 | 7 |
| 4 | 5 |
| 5 | 8 |
+---------+-------------+
 
DELIMITER //
CREATE AGGREGATE FUNCTION IF NOT EXISTS aggregate_count(x
INT) RETURNS INT
BEGIN
 DECLARE count_students INT DEFAULT 0;
 
 DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND
 RETURN count_students;
 
 LOOP
 FETCH GROUP NEXT ROW;
 
 IF x THEN
 SET count_students = count_students+1;
 
 END IF;
 
 END LOOP;
 
END //
DELIMITER ;
 
A non-trivial example that cannot easily be rewritten using
existing functions:
 
DELIMITER //
CREATE AGGREGATE FUNCTION medi_int(x INT) RETURNS DOUBLE
BEGIN
 DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND
 BEGIN
 DECLARE res DOUBLE;
 
 DECLARE cnt INT DEFAULT (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tt);
 DECLARE lim INT DEFAULT (cnt-1) DIV 2;
 
 IF cnt % 2 = 0 THEN
 SET res = (SELECT AVG(a) FROM (SELECT a FROM tt ORDER BY a
LIMIT lim,2) ttt);
 ELSE
 SET res = (SELECT a FROM tt ORDER BY a LIMIT lim,1);
 END IF;
 
 DROP TEMPORARY TABLE tt;
 
 RETURN res;
 
 END;
 
 CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE tt (a INT);
 LOOP
 FETCH GROUP NEXT ROW;
 
 INSERT INTO tt VALUES (x);
 END LOOP;
 
END //
DELIMITER ;
 
SQL/PL Example
 
This uses the same marks table as created above.
 
SET sql_mode=Oracle;
 
DELIMITER //
 
CREATE AGGREGATE FUNCTION aggregate_count(x INT) RETURN INT
AS count_students INT DEFAULT 0;
 
BEGIN
 LOOP
 FETCH GROUP NEXT ROW;
 
 IF x THEN
 SET count_students := count_students+1;
 
 END IF;
 
 END LOOP;
 
EXCEPTION
 WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
 RETURN count_students;
 
END aggregate_count //
DELIMITER ;
 
SELECT aggregate_count(stud_id) FROM marks;

&AVGSyntax
------ 
AVG([DISTINCT] expr)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the average value of expr. The DISTINCT option can
be used to return the average of the distinct values of
expr. NULL values are ignored. It is an aggregate function,
and so can be used with the GROUP BY clause.
 
AVG() returns NULL if there were no matching rows.
 
From MariaDB 10.2.0, AVG() can be used as a window function.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE sales (sales_value INT);
 
INSERT INTO sales VALUES(10),(20),(20),(40);
 
SELECT AVG(sales_value) FROM sales;
 
+------------------+
| AVG(sales_value) |
+------------------+
| 22.5000 |
+------------------+
 
SELECT AVG(DISTINCT(sales_value)) FROM sales;
 
+----------------------------+
| AVG(DISTINCT(sales_value)) |
+----------------------------+
| 23.3333 |
+----------------------------+
 
Commonly, AVG() is used with a GROUP BY clause:
 
CREATE TABLE student (name CHAR(10), test CHAR(10), score
TINYINT); 
 
INSERT INTO student VALUES 
 ('Chun', 'SQL', 75), ('Chun', 'Tuning', 73), 
 ('Esben', 'SQL', 43), ('Esben', 'Tuning', 31), 
 ('Kaolin', 'SQL', 56), ('Kaolin', 'Tuning', 88), 
 ('Tatiana', 'SQL', 87), ('Tatiana', 'Tuning', 83);
 
SELECT name, AVG(score) FROM student GROUP BY name;
 
+---------+------------+
| name | AVG(score) |
+---------+------------+
| Chun | 74.0000 |
| Esben | 37.0000 |
| Kaolin | 72.0000 |
| Tatiana | 85.0000 |
+---------+------------+
 
Be careful to avoid this common mistake, not grouping
correctly and returning mismatched data: 
 
SELECT name,test,AVG(score) FROM student;
 
+------+------+------------+
| name | test | MIN(score) |
+------+------+------------+
| Chun | SQL | 31 |
+------+------+------------+
 
As a window function:
 
CREATE TABLE student_test (name CHAR(10), test CHAR(10),
score TINYINT); 
 
INSERT INTO student_test VALUES 
 ('Chun', 'SQL', 75), ('Chun', 'Tuning', 73),

 ('Kaolin', 'SQL', 56), ('Kaolin', 'Tuning', 88), 
 ('Tatiana', 'SQL', 87), ('Tatiana', 'Tuning', 83);
 
SELECT name, test, score, AVG(score) OVER (PARTITION BY

�*ITERATESyntax
------ 
ITERATE label
 
ITERATE can appear only within LOOP, REPEAT, and WHILE
statements.
ITERATE means "do the loop again", and uses the
statement's label to determine which statements to repeat.
The label must be in the same stored program, not in a
caller procedure.
 
If you try to use ITERATE with a non-existing label, or if
the label is associated to a construct which is not a loop,
the following error will be produced:
 
ERROR 1308 (42000): ITERATE with no matching label: 
 
Below is an example of how ITERATE might be used:
 
CREATE PROCEDURE doiterate(p1 INT)
BEGIN
 label1: LOOP
 SET p1 = p1 + 1;

�'LOOPSyntax
------ 
[begin_label:] LOOP
 statement_list
END LOOP [end_label]
 
Description
----------- 
LOOP implements a simple loop construct, enabling repeated
execution
of the statement list, which consists of one or more
statements, each
terminated by a semicolon (i.e., ;) statement delimiter. The
statements
within the loop are repeated until the loop is exited;
usually this is
accomplished with a LEAVE statement.
 
A LOOP statement can be labeled. end_label cannot be given
unless
begin_label also is present. If both are present, they must
be the
same.
 
See Delimiters in the mysql client for more on delimiter
usage in the client.

Description
----------- 
Returns the minimum value of expr. MIN() may take a string
argument, in which case it returns the minimum string value.
The DISTINCT
keyword can be used to find the minimum of the distinct
values of expr,
however, this produces the same result as omitting DISTINCT.
 
Note that SET and ENUM fields are currently compared by
their string value rather than their relative position in
the set, so MIN() may produce a different lowest result than
ORDER BY ASC.
 
It is an aggregate function, and so can be used with the
GROUP BY clause.
 
From MariaDB 10.2.2, MIN() can be used as a window function.
 
MIN() returns NULL if there were no matching rows.

MIN() with a string:
 
SELECT MIN(name) FROM student;
 
+-----------+
| MIN(name) |
+-----------+

+------+------+------------+

VALUES('Chun','b'),('Esben','c'),('Kaolin','a');
 
SELECT MIN(grade) FROM student2;

RETURN expr 
 
The RETURN statement terminates execution of a stored
function and
returns the value expr to the function caller. There must be
at least
one RETURN statement in a stored function. If the function
has multiple exit points, all exit points must have a
RETURN.
 
This statement is not used in stored procedures, triggers,
or events. LEAVE can be used instead.
 
The following example shows that RETURN can return the
result of a scalar subquery:
 
CREATE FUNCTION users_count() RETURNS BOOL
 READS SQL DATA
BEGIN
 RETURN (SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT User) FROM mysql.user);
END;

------ 
SUM([DISTINCT] expr)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the sum of expr. If the return set has no rows,
SUM() returns
NULL. The DISTINCT keyword can be used to sum only the
distinct values
of expr.
 
From MariaDB 10.2.0, SUM() can be used as a window function,
although not with the DISTINCT specifier.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE sales (sales_value INT);
INSERT INTO sales VALUES(10),(20),(20),(40);
 
SELECT SUM(sales_value) FROM sales;
 
+------------------+
| SUM(sales_value) |
+------------------+
| 90 |
+------------------+
 
SELECT SUM(DISTINCT(sales_value)) FROM sales;
 
+----------------------------+
| SUM(DISTINCT(sales_value)) |
+----------------------------+
| 70 |
+----------------------------+
 
Commonly, SUM is used with a GROUP BY clause:
 
CREATE TABLE sales (name CHAR(10), month CHAR(10), units
INT);
 
INSERT INTO sales VALUES 
 ('Chun', 'Jan', 75), ('Chun', 'Feb', 73),
 ('Esben', 'Jan', 43), ('Esben', 'Feb', 31),
 ('Kaolin', 'Jan', 56), ('Kaolin', 'Feb', 88),
 ('Tatiana', 'Jan', 87), ('Tatiana', 'Feb', 83);
 
SELECT name, SUM(units) FROM sales GROUP BY name;

| name | SUM(units) |
+---------+------------+
| Chun | 148 |
| Esben | 74 |
| Kaolin | 144 |
| Tatiana | 170 |
+---------+------------+
 
The GROUP BY clause is required when using an aggregate
function along with regular column data, otherwise the
result will be a mismatch, as in the following common type
of mistake:
 
SELECT name,SUM(units) FROM sales
;
+------+------------+
| name | SUM(units) |
+------+------------+
| Chun | 536 |

------ 
COERCIBILITY(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the collation coercibility value of the string
argument. Coercibility defines what will be converted to
what in case of collation conflict, with an expression with
higher coercibility being converted to the collation of an
expression with lower coercibility.
 
Coercibility | Description | Example | 
 
0 | Explicit | Value using a COLLATE clause | 
 
1 | No collation | Concatenated strings using different
collations |

Syntax
------ 
CURRENT_ROLE, CURRENT_ROLE()
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the current role name. This determines your access
privileges. The return value is a string in the
utf8 character set.
 
If there is no current role, NULL is returned.
 
The output of SELECT CURRENT_ROLE is equivalent to the
contents of the ENABLED_ROLES Information Schema table.
 
USER() returns the combination of user and host used to
login. CURRENT_USER() returns the account used to determine
current connection's privileges.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT CURRENT_ROLE;
 
+--------------+
| CURRENT_ROLE |
+--------------+
| NULL |
+--------------+
 
SET ROLE staff;
 
SELECT CURRENT_ROLE;
 
+--------------+

------ 
CURRENT_USER, CURRENT_USER()
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the user name and host name combination for the
MariaDB account
that the server used to authenticate the current client.
This account
determines your access privileges. The return value is a
string in the
utf8 character set.
 
The value of CURRENT_USER() can differ from the value of
USER(). CURRENT_ROLE() returns the current active role.
 
Examples
-------- 
shell> mysql --user="anonymous"
 
MariaDB [(none)]> select user(),current_user();
+---------------------+----------------+
| user() | current_user() |
+---------------------+----------------+
| anonymous@localhost | @localhost |
+---------------------+----------------+
 
When calling CURRENT_USER() in a stored procedure, it
returns the owner of the stored procedure, as defined with
DEFINER.
 


URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/current_user/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/current_user/�v+DATABASESyntax
------ 
DATABASE()
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the default (current) database name as a string in
the utf8 character set. If there is no default database,
DATABASE() returns NULL. Within a stored routine, the
default database is the database that the routine is
associated with, which is not necessarily the same as the
database that is the default in the calling context.
 
SCHEMA() is a synonym for DATABASE().
 
To select a default database, the USE statement can be run.
Another way to set the default database is specifying its
name at mysql command line client startup.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT DATABASE();
+------------+
| DATABASE() |
+------------+
| NULL |
+------------+
 
USE test;
 
Database changed
 
SELECT DATABASE();
+------------+

------ 
DEFAULT(col_name)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the default value for a table column. If the column
has no default value, NULL is returned.
For integer columns using AUTO_INCREMENT, 0 is returned.
 
When using DEFAULT as a value to set in an INSERT or UPDATE
statement, you can use the bare keyword DEFAULT without the
parentheses and argument to
refer to the column in context. You can only use DEFAULT as
a bare keyword if you are using it
alone without a surrounding expression or function.
 
Examples
-------- 
Select only non-default values for a column:
 
SELECT i FROM t WHERE i != DEFAULT(i);
 
Update values to be one greater than the default value:
 
UPDATE t SET i = DEFAULT(i)+1 WHERE i

------ 
BINLOG 'str'
 
Description
----------- 
BINLOG is an internal-use statement. It is generated by the
mysqlbinlog program as the printable representation of
certain events
in binary log files. The 'str' value is a base 64-encoded
string the that server decodes to determine the data change
indicated by the
corresponding event. This statement requires the SUPER
privilege. It was added in MySQL 5.1.5.

Description
----------- 
Returns a string of comma separated numeric values
corresponding to a probability distribution represented by
the histogram of type hist_type (SINGLE_PREC_HB or
DOUBLE_PREC_HB). The hist_type and histogram would be
commonly used from the mysql.column_stats table.

�-FOUND_ROWSSyntax
------ 
FOUND_ROWS()
 
Description
----------- 
A SELECT statement may include a LIMIT clause to restrict
the number
of rows the server returns to the client. In some cases, it
is
desirable to know how many rows the statement would have
returned
without the LIMIT, but without running the statement again.
To obtain
this row count, include a SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS option in the
SELECT
statement, and then invoke FOUND_ROWS() afterwards.
 
You can also use FOUND_ROWS() to obtain the number of rows
returned by a SELECT which does not contain a LIMIT clause.
In this case you don't need to use the SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS
option. This can be useful for example in a stored
procedure.
 
Also, this function works with some other statements which
return a resultset, including SHOW, DESC and HELP. For
DELETE ... RETURNING you should use ROW_COUNT(). It also
works as a prepared statement, or after executing a prepared
statement.
 
Statements which don't return any results don't affect
FOUND_ROWS() - the previous value will still be returned.
 
Warning: When used after a CALL statement, this function
returns the number of rows selected by the last query in the
procedure, not by the whole procedure.
 
Statements using the FOUND_ROWS() function are not safe for
replication.

4FLUSH QUERY CACHEDescription
----------- 
You can defragment the query cache to better utilize its
memory with
the FLUSH QUERY CACHE statement. The statement does not
remove any queries from the cache.
 
The RESET QUERY CACHE statement removes all query results
from the query cache.
The FLUSH TABLES statement also does this.

�-LOAD INDEXSyntax
------ 
LOAD INDEX INTO CACHE
 tbl_index_list [, tbl_index_list] ...
 
tbl_index_list:
 tbl_name
 [[INDEX|KEY] (index_name[, index_name] ...)]
 [IGNORE LEAVES]
 
Description
----------- 
The LOAD INDEX INTO CACHE statement preloads a table index
into the key
cache to which it has been assigned by an explicit CACHE
INDEX
statement, or into the default key cache otherwise. 
LOAD INDEX INTO CACHE is used only for MyISAM or Aria
tables. Until MariaDB 5.3, it was not supported for tables
having user-defined partitioning, but this limitation was
removed in MariaDB 5.5.
 
The IGNORE LEAVES modifier causes only blocks for the
nonleaf nodes of
the index to be preloaded.

�1LAST_INSERT_IDSyntax
------ 
LAST_INSERT_ID(), LAST_INSERT_ID(expr)
 
Description
----------- 
LAST_INSERT_ID() (no arguments) returns
the first automatically generated value successfully
inserted for an
AUTO_INCREMENT column as a result of the most recently
executed INSERT
statement. The value of LAST_INSERT_ID() remains unchanged
if no rows
are successfully inserted.
 
If one gives an argument to LAST_INSERT_ID(), then it will
return the value of the expression and
the next call to LAST_INSERT_ID() will return the same
value. The value will also be sent to the client
and can be accessed by the mysql_insert_id function.
 
For example, after inserting a row that generates an
AUTO_INCREMENT
value, you can get the value like this:
 
SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID();
+------------------+
| LAST_INSERT_ID() |
+------------------+
| 9 |
+------------------+
 
You can also use LAST_INSERT_ID() to delete the last
inserted row:
 
DELETE FROM product WHERE id = LAST_INSERT_ID();
 
If no rows were successfully inserted, LAST_INSERT_ID()
returns 0.
 
The value of LAST_INSERT_ID() will be consistent across all
versions
if all rows in the INSERT or UPDATE statement were
successful.
 
The currently executing statement does not affect the value
of
LAST_INSERT_ID(). Suppose that you generate an
AUTO_INCREMENT value
with one statement, and then refer to LAST_INSERT_ID() in a
multiple-row INSERT statement that inserts rows into a table
with its
own AUTO_INCREMENT column. The value of LAST_INSERT_ID()
will remain
stable in the second statement; its value for the second and
later
rows is not affected by the earlier row insertions.
(However, if you
mix references to LAST_INSERT_ID() and LAST_INSERT_ID(expr),
the
effect is undefined.)
 
If the previous statement returned an error, the value of
LAST_INSERT_ID() is undefined. For transactional tables, if
the
statement is rolled back due to an error, the value of
LAST_INSERT_ID() is left undefined. For manual ROLLBACK, the
value of
LAST_INSERT_ID() is not restored to that before the
transaction; it
remains as it was at the point of the ROLLBACK.
 
Within the body of a stored routine (procedure or function)
or a
trigger, the value of LAST_INSERT_ID() changes the same way
as for
statements executed outside the body of these kinds of
objects. The
effect of a stored routine or trigger upon the value of
LAST_INSERT_ID() that is seen by following statements
depends on the
kind of routine:
If a stored procedure executes statements that change the
value of LAST_INSERT_ID(), the new value will be seen by
statements that follow the procedure call.
 
For stored functions and triggers that change the value, the
value is restored when the function or trigger ends, so
following statements will not see a changed value.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE t (
 id INTEGER UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, 
 f VARCHAR(1))

------ 
analyse([max_elements[,max_memory]])
 
Description
----------- 
This procedure is defined in the sql/sql_analyse.cc file. It
examines
the result from a query and returns an analysis of the
results that
suggests optimal data types for each column. To obtain this
analysis,
append PROCEDURE ANALYSE to the end of a SELECT statement:
 
SELECT ... FROM ... WHERE ... PROCEDURE
ANALYSE([max_elements,[max_memory]])
 
For example:
 
SELECT col1, col2 FROM table1 PROCEDURE ANALYSE(10, 2000);
 
The results show some statistics for the values returned by
the query,
and propose an optimal data type for the columns. This can
be helpful
for checking your existing tables, or after importing new
data. You
may need to try different settings for the arguments so that
PROCEDURE
ANALYSE() does not suggest the ENUM data type when it is not
appropriate.
 
The arguments are optional and are used as follows:
max_elements (default 256) is the maximum number of distinct
values that analyse notices per column. This is used by
analyse to check whether the optimal data type should be of
type ENUM; if there are more than max_elements distinct
values, then ENUM is not a suggested type.
max_memory (default 8192) is the maximum amount of memory
that analyse should allocate per column while trying to find
all distinct values.

 DO executes the expressions but does not return any
results. In most respects, DO is shorthand for
 SELECT expr, ..., but has the advantage that it is slightly
faster when you do not care about the result.
 
 DO is useful primarily with functions that have side
 effects, such as RELEASE_LOCK().

SHOW SLAVE ["connection_name"] STATUS
 
or
 
SHOW ALL SLAVES STATUS
 
Description
----------- 
This statement is to be run on a slave and provides status
information on essential parameters of the replication slave
threads.
 
This statement requires the SUPER or the REPLICATION_CLIENT
privilege.
 
Multi-source
 
MariaDB 10.0 introduced the FULL and "connection_name"
options to
allow you to connect to many masters at the same time.
 
ALL SLAVES gives you a list of all connections to the
master.
 
The rows will be sorted according to Connection_name.
 
If you specify a connection_name, you only get the
information about that
connection. If connection_name is not used, then the name
set by default_master_connection is used. If the connection
name doesn't exist you will get an error:
There is no master connection for 'xxx'.

URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/show-slave-status/ER TABLE statement
supports the LOCK clause. This clause is one of the clauses
that is used to implement online DDL. ALTER TABLE supports
several different locking strategies. A locking strategy can
be explicitly chosen for an ALTER TABLE operation by setting
the LOCK clause. The supported values are:
DEFAULT: Acquire the least restrictive lock on the table
that is supported for the specific operation. Permit the
maximum amount of concurrency that is supported for the
specific operation.
NONE: Acquire no lock on the table. Permit all concurrent
DML. If this locking strategy is not permitted for an
operation, then an error is raised.
SHARED: Acquire a read lock on the table. Permit read-only
concurrent DML. If this locking strategy is not permitted
for an operation, then an error is raised.
EXCLUSIVE: Acquire a write lock on the table. Do not permit
concurrent DML.
 
Different storage engines support different locking
strategies for different operations. If a specific locking
strategy is chosen for an ALTER TABLE operation, and that
table's storage engine does not support that locking
strategy for that specific operation, then an error will be
raised.
 
If the LOCK clause is not explicitly set, then the operation
uses LOCK=DEFAULT.
 
ALTER ONLINE TABLE is equivalent to LOCK=NONE. Therefore,
the ALTER ONLINE TABLE statement can be used to ensure that
your ALTER TABLE operation allows all concurrent DML.
 
See InnoDB Online DDL Overview: LOCK for information on how
the LOCK clause affects InnoDB.
 
Progress Reporting
 
MariaDB provides progress reporting for ALTER TABLE
statement for clients
that support the new progress reporting protocol. For
example, if you were using the mysql client, then the
progress report might look like this::
 
ALTER TABLE test ENGINE=Aria;
Stage: 1 of 2 'copy to tmp table' 46% of stage
 
The progress report is also shown in the output of the SHOW
PROCESSLIST statement and in the contents of the
information_schema.PROCESSLIST table.
 
See Progress Reporting for more information.
 
Aborting ALTER TABLE Operations
 
If an ALTER TABLE operation is being performed and the
connection is killed, the changes will be rolled back in a
controlled manner. The rollback can be a slow operation as
the time it takes is relative to how far the operation has
progressed.
 
Aborting ALTER TABLE ... ALGORITHM=COPY was made faster by
removing excessive undo logging (MDEV-11415). This
significantly shortens the time it takes to abort a running
ALTER TABLE operation.
 
Examples
-------- 
Adding a new column:
 
ALTER TABLE t1 ADD x INT;
 
Dropping a column:
 
ALTER TABLE t1 DROP x;
 
Modifying the type of a column:
 
ALTER TABLE t1 MODIFY x bigint unsigned;
 
Changing the name and type of a column:
 
ALTER TABLE t1 CHANGE a b bigint unsigned auto_increment;
 
Combining multiple clauses in a single ALTER TABLE
statement, separated by commas:
 
ALTER TABLE t1 DROP x, ADD x2 INT, CHANGE y y2 INT;
 
Changing the storage engine:
 
ALTER TABLE t1 ENGINE = InnoDB;
 
Rebuilding the table (the previous example will also rebuild
the table if it was already InnoDB):
 
ALTER TABLE t1 FORCE;

SHOW [GLOBAL | SESSION] STATUS
 [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
SHOW STATUS provides server status information. This
information also can be obtained using the mysqladmin
extended-status command, or by querying the Information
Schema GLOBAL_STATUS and SESSION_STATUS tables.
The LIKE clause, if present, indicates which variable names
to match. The WHERE clause can be given to select rows using
more general conditions.
 
With the GLOBAL modifier, SHOW STATUS
displays the status values for all connections to MariaDB.
With
SESSION, it displays the status values
for the current connection. If no modifier is present, the
default is
 SESSION. LOCAL is a synonym for
 SESSION. If you see a lot of 0 values, the reason is
probably that you have used SHOW STATUS with a new
connection instead of SHOW GLOBAL STATUS.
 
Some status variables have only a global value. For these,
you get the
same value for both GLOBAL and SESSION.
 
See Server Status Variables for a full list, scope and
description of the variables that can be viewed with SHOW
STATUS.
 
The LIKE clause, if present on its own, indicates which
variable name to match.
 
The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be given to select rows using
more general conditions, as discussed in Extended SHOW.

-LAST_VALUESyntax
------ 
LAST_VALUE(expr,[expr,...])
 
LAST_VALUE(expr) OVER (
 [ PARTITION BY partition_expression ]
 [ ORDER BY order_list ]
) 
 
Description
----------- 
LAST_VALUE() evaluates all expressions and returns the last.
 
This is useful together with setting user variables to a
value with @var:=expr, for example when you want to get data
of rows updated/deleted without having to do two queries
against the table.
 
Since MariaDB 10.2.2, LAST_VALUE can be used as a window
function.
 
Returns NULL if no last value exists.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE t1 (a int, b int);
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES(1,10),(2,20);
DELETE FROM t1 WHERE a=1 AND last_value(@a:=a,@b:=b,1);
SELECT @a,@b;
 
+------+------+
| @a | @b |
+------+------+
| 1 | 10 |
+------+------+
 
As a window function:
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (
 pk int primary key,
 a int,
 b int,
 c char(10),
 d decimal(10, 3),
 e real
);
 
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES
( 1, 0, 1, 'one', 0.1, 0.001),
( 2, 0, 2, 'two', 0.2, 0.002),

,ROW_COUNTSyntax
------ 
ROW_COUNT()
 
Description
----------- 
ROW_COUNT() returns the number of rows updated, inserted or
deleted
by the preceding statement. This is the same as the row
count that the
mysql client displays and the value from the
mysql_affected_rows() C
API function.
 
Generally:
For statements which return a result set (such as SELECT,
SHOW, DESC or HELP), returns -1, even when the result set is
empty. This is also true for administrative statements, such
as OPTIMIZE.
For DML statements other than SELECT and for ALTER TABLE,
returns the number of affected rows.
For DDL statements (including TRUNCATE) and for other
statements which don't return any result set (such as USE,
DO, SIGNAL or DEALLOCATE PREPARE), returns 0.
 
For UPDATE, affected rows is by default the number of rows
that were actually changed. If the CLIENT_FOUND_ROWS flag to
mysql_real_connect() is specified when connecting to mysqld,
affected rows is instead the number of rows matched by the
WHERE clause. 
 
For REPLACE, deleted rows are also counted. So, if REPLACE
deletes a row and adds a new row, ROW_COUNT() returns 2.
 
For INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY, updated rows are counted
twice. So, if INSERT adds a new rows and modifies another
row, ROW_COUNT() returns 3.
 
ROW_COUNT() does not take into account rows that are not
directly deleted/updated by the last statement. This means
that rows deleted by foreign keys or triggers are not
counted.
 
Warning: You can use ROW_COUNT() with prepared statements,
but you need to call it after EXECUTE, not after DEALLOCATE
PREPARE, because the row count for allocate prepare is
always 0.
 
Warning: When used after a CALL statement, this function
returns the number of rows affected by the last statement in
the procedure, not by the whole procedure.
 
Warning: After INSERT DELAYED, ROW_COUNT() returns the
number of the rows you tried to insert, not the number of
the successful writes.
 
This information can also be found in the diagnostics area.
 
Statements using the ROW_COUNT() function are not safe for
replication.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE t (A INT);
 
INSERT INTO t VALUES(1),(2),(3);
 
SELECT ROW_COUNT();
+-------------+
| ROW_COUNT() |
+-------------+
| 3 |
+-------------+
 
DELETE FROM t WHERE A IN(1,2);
 
SELECT ROW_COUNT(); 
+-------------+
| ROW_COUNT() |
+-------------+
| 2 |
+-------------+
 
Example with prepared statements:
 
SET @q = 'INSERT INTO t VALUES(1),(2),(3);';
 
PREPARE stmt FROM @q;
 
EXECUTE stmt;
 
Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.39 sec)
Records: 3 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
 
SELECT ROW_COUNT();

�'DUALDescription
----------- 
You are allowed to specify DUAL as a dummy table name in
situations where no tables are referenced, such as the
following SELECT statement:
 
SELECT 1 + 1 FROM DUAL;
 
+-------+
| 1 + 1 |
+-------+
| 2 |
+-------+
 
 DUAL is purely for the convenience of people who require
 that all SELECT statements should have
 FROM and possibly other clauses. MariaDB ignores the
 clauses. MariaDB does not require FROM DUAL if no tables
 are referenced.
 
FROM DUAL could be used when you only SELECT computed
values, but require a WHERE clause, perhaps to test that a
script correctly handles empty resultsets:
 
SELECT 1 FROM DUAL WHERE FALSE;
 
Empty set (0.00 sec)
 


URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/dual/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/dual/�

v-FOR UPDATEThe FOR UPDATE clause of SELECT applies only when autocommit
is set to 0 or the SELECT is enclosed in a transaction. A
lock is acquired on the rows, and other transactions are
prevented from writing the rows, acquire locks, and from
reading them (unless their isolation level is READ
UNCOMMITTED).
 
If autocommit is set to 1, the LOCK IN SHARE MODE and FOR
UPDATE clauses have no effect.
 
If the isolation level is set to SERIALIZABLE, all plain
SELECT statements are converted to SELECT ... LOCK IN SHARE
MODE.
 
Example
 
SELECT * FROM trans WHERE period=2001 FOR UPDATE;

&S��
���e'USERSyntax
------ 
USER()
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the current MariaDB user name and host name, given
when authenticating to MariaDB, as a string in the utf8
character set.
 
Note that the value of USER() may differ from the value of
CURRENT_USER(), which is the user used to authenticate the
current client. 
CURRENT_ROLE() returns the current active role.
 
SYSTEM_USER() and SESSION_USER are synonyms for USER().
 
Statements using the USER() function or one of its synonyms
are not safe for statement level replication.
 
Examples
-------- 
shell> mysql --user="anonymous"
 
MariaDB [(none)]> select user(),current_user();
+---------------------+----------------+
| user() | current_user() |
+---------------------+----------------+
| anonymous@localhost | @localhost |
+---------------------+----------------+
 


URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/user/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/user/�_*VERSIONSyntax
------ 
VERSION()
 
Description
----------- 
Returns a string that indicates the MariaDB server version.
The string
uses the utf8 character set.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT VERSION();
+------------------------------+
| VERSION() |
+------------------------------+
| 10.0.3-MariaDB-1~precise-log |
+------------------------------+
 
The VERSION() string may have one or more of the following
suffixes:
 
Suffix | Description | 
 
-embedded | The server is an embedded server (libmysqld). | 
 
-log | General logging, slow logging or binary (replication)
logging is enabled. | 
 
-debug | The server is compiled for debugging. | 
 
-valgrind |  The server is compiled to be instrumented with
valgrind. | 
 
Changing the Version String
 
Some old legacy code may break because they are parsing the
VERSION string and expecting a MySQL string or a simple
version
string like Joomla til API17, see MDEV-7780.
 
In MariaDB 10.2 one can fool these applications by setting
the version string from the command line or the my.cnf files
with --version=....

------ 
, !=
 
Description
----------- 
Not equal operator. Evaluates both SQL expressions and
returns 1 if they are not equal and 0 if they are equal, or
NULL if either expression is NULL. If the expressions return
different data types, (for instance, a number and a string),
performs type conversion.
 
When used in row comparisons these two queries return the
same results:
 
SELECT (t1.a, t1.b) != (t2.x, t2.y) 
FROM t1 INNER JOIN t2;
 
SELECT (t1.a != t2.x) OR (t1.b != t2.y)
FROM t1 INNER JOIN t2;
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT '.01'  '0.01';
 
+-----------------+
| '.01'  '0.01' |
+-----------------+
| 1 |
+-----------------+
 
SELECT .01  '0.01';
 
+---------------+
| .01  '0.01' |
+---------------+
| 0 |
+---------------+
 
SELECT 'zapp'  'zappp';

URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/not-equal/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/not-equal/�	�2&lt;=&gt;Syntax
------ 

 
Description
----------- 
NULL-safe equal operator. It performs an equality comparison
like
the = operator, but returns 1 rather than NULL if both
operands are
NULL, and 0 rather than NULL if one operand is NULL.
 
a  b is equivalent to a = b OR (a IS NULL AND b IS NULL).

left_expr = right_expr
 
Description
----------- 
Equal operator. Evaluates both SQL expressions and returns 1
if they are equal, 0 if they are not equal, or NULL if
either expression is NULL. If the expressions return
different data types (for example, a number and a string), a
type conversion is performed.
 
When used in row comparisons these two queries are
synonymous and return the same results:
 
SELECT (t1.a, t1.b) = (t2.x, t2.y) FROM t1 INNER JOIN t2;
 
SELECT (t1.a = t2.x) AND (t1.b = t2.y) FROM t1 INNER JOIN
t2;
 
To perform a NULL-safe comparison, use the  operator.
 
= can also be used as an assignment operator.

�5LOCK IN SHARE MODEWhen LOCK IN SHARE MODE is specified in a SELECT statement,
MariaDB will wait until all transactions that have modified
the rows are committed. Then, a write lock is acquired. All
transactions can read the rows, but if they want to modify
them, they have to wait until your transaction is committed.
 
InnoDB/XtraDB supports row-level locking. selected rows can
be locked using LOCK IN SHARE MODE or FOR UPDATE. In both
cases, a lock is acquired on the rows read by the query, and
it will be released when the current transaction is
committed.
 
If autocommit is set to 1, the LOCK IN SHARE MODE and FOR
UPDATE clauses have no effect.

	<,PROCEDUREThe PROCEDURE clause of SELECT passes the whole result set
to a Procedure which will process it. These Procedures are
not Stored Procedures, and can only be written in the C
language, so it is necessary to recompile the server.
 
Currently, the only available procedure is ANALYSE, which
examines the resultset and suggests the optimal datatypes
for each column. It is defined in the sql/sql_analyse.cc
file, and can be used as an example to create more
Procedures.
 
This clause cannot be used in a view's definition.

------ 
COALESCE(value,...)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the first non-NULL value in the list, or NULL if
there are no
non-NULL values. At least one parameter must be passed.
 
See also NULL Values in MariaDB.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT COALESCE(NULL,1);
+------------------+
| COALESCE(NULL,1) |
+------------------+
| 1 |
+------------------+
 
SELECT COALESCE(NULL,NULL,NULL);
+--------------------------+
| COALESCE(NULL,NULL,NULL) |
+--------------------------+
| NULL |
+--------------------------+
 
When two arguments are given, COALESCE() is the same as
IFNULL():
 
SET @a=NULL, @b=1;
 
SELECT COALESCE(@a, @b), IFNULL(@a, @b);
+------------------+----------------+
| COALESCE(@a, @b) | IFNULL(@a, @b) |
+------------------+----------------+
| 1 | 1 |
+------------------+----------------+
 
Hex type confusion:
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT, b VARCHAR(10));
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (0x31, 0x61),(COALESCE(0x31),
COALESCE(0x61));
 
SELECT * FROM t1;
 
+------+------+
| a | b |
+------+------+
| 49 | a |
| 1 | a |
+------+------+
 
The reason for the differing results above is that when 0x31
is inserted directly to the column, it's treated as a
number (see Hexadecimal Literals), while when 0x31 is passed
to COALESCE(), it's treated as a string, because:
HEX values have a string data type by default.
COALESCE() has the same data type as the argument.

expr IN (value,...)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns 1 if expr is equal to any of the values in the IN
list, else
returns 0. If all values are constants, they are evaluated
according
to the type of expr and sorted. The search for the item then
is done
using a binary search. This means IN is very quick if the IN
value
list consists entirely of constants. Otherwise, type
conversion takes
place according to the rules described at Type Conversion,
but
applied to all the arguments.
 
If expr is NULL, IN always returns NULL. If at least one of
the values in the list is NULL, and one of the comparisons
is true, the result is 1. If at least one of the values in
the list is NULL and none of the comparisons is true, the
result is NULL.

EXPLAIN tbl_name
 
Or
 
EXPLAIN [EXTENDED | PARTITIONS] 
 {SELECT select_options | UPDATE update_options | DELETE
delete_options}
 
Description
----------- 
The EXPLAIN statement can be used either as a synonym for
DESCRIBE or as a way to obtain information about how MariaDB
executes a SELECT (as well as UPDATE and DELETE since
MariaDB 10.0.5) statement:
'EXPLAIN tbl_name' is synonymous with 
 'DESCRIBE tbl_name' or 
 'SHOW COLUMNS FROM tbl_name'.
When you precede a SELECT statement (or, since MariaDB
10.0.5, an UPDATE or a DELETE as well) with the keyword 
 EXPLAIN, MariaDB displays information from the optimizer
 about the query execution plan. That is, MariaDB explains
how it would
 process the SELECT, UPDATE or DELETE, including information
about how tables
 are joined and in which order. EXPLAIN EXTENDED can be
 used to provide additional information.
EXPLAIN PARTITIONS has been available since MySQL 5.1.5. It
is useful only when examining queries involving partitioned
tables. For details, see Partition pruning and selection.
ANALYZE statement, which performs the query as well as
producing EXPLAIN output, and provides actual as well as
estimated statistics, has been available from MariaDB
10.1.0.
Since MariaDB 10.0.5, it has been possible to have EXPLAIN
output printed in the slow query log. See EXPLAIN in the
Slow Query Log for details.
 
Since MariaDB 10.0, SHOW EXPLAIN shows the output of a
running statement. In some cases, its output can be closer
to reality than EXPLAIN.
 
Since MariaDB 10.1, the ANALYZE statement runs a statement
and returns information about its execution plan. It also
shows additional columns, to check how much the optimizer's
estimation about filtering and found rows are close to
reality.
 
There is an online EXPLAIN Analyzer that you can use to
share EXPLAIN and EXPLAIN EXTENDED output with others.
 
EXPLAIN can acquire metadata locks in the same way that
SELECT does, as it needs to know table metadata and,
sometimes, data as well.
 
The columns in EXPLAIN ... SELECT
 
Column name | Description | 
 
id | Sequence number that shows in which order tables are
joined. | 
 
select_type | What kind of SELECT the table comes from. | 
 
table | Alias name of table. Materialized temporary tables
for sub queries are named  | 
 
type | How rows are found from the table (join type). | 
 
possible_keys | keys in table that could be used to find
rows in the table | 
 
key | The name of the key that is used to retrieve rows.
NULL is no key was used. | 
 
key_len | How many bytes of the key that was used (shows if
we are using only parts of the multi-column key). | 
 
ref | The reference that is used to as the key value. | 
 
rows | An estimate of how many rows we will find in the
table for each key lookup. | 
 
Extra | Extra information about this join. | 
 
Here are descriptions of the values for some of the more
complex columns in EXPLAIN ... SELECT:
 
"select_type" column
 
The select_type column can have the following values:
 
Value | Description | 
 
DEPENDENT SUBQUERY | The SUBQUERY is DEPENDENT. | 
 
DEPENDENT UNION | The UNION is DEPENDENT. | 
 
DERIVED | The SELECT is DERIVED from the PRIMARY. | 
 
MATERIALIZED | The SUBQUERY is MATERIALIZED. | 
 
PRIMARY | The SELECT is a PRIMARY one. | 
 
SIMPLE | The SELECT is a SIMPLE one. | 
 
SUBQUERY | The SELECT is a SUBQUERY of the PRIMARY. | 
 
UNCACHEABLE SUBQUERY | The SUBQUERY is UNCACHEABLE. | 
 
UNCACHEABLE UNION | The UNION is UNCACHEABLE. | 
 
UNION | The SELECT is a UNION of the PRIMARY. | 
 
UNION RESULT | The result of the UNION. | 
 
"Type" column
 
This column contains information on how the table is
accessed.
 
Value | Description | 
 
ALL | A full table scan is done for the table (all rows are
read). This is bad if the table is large and the table is
joined against a previous table! This happens when the
optimizer could not find any usable index to access rows. | 
 
const | There is only one possibly matching row in the
table. The row is read before the optimization phase and all
columns in the table are treated as constants. | 
 
eq_ref | A unique index is used to find the rows. This is
the best possible plan to find the row. | 
 
fulltext | A fulltext index is used to access the rows. | 
 
index_merge | A 'range' access is done for for several
index and the found rows are merged. The key column shows
which keys are used. | 
 
index_subquery | This is similar as ref, but used for sub
queries that are transformed to key lookups. | 
 
index | A full scan over the used index. Better than ALL but
still bad if index is large and the table is joined against
a previous table. | 
 
range | The table will be accessed with a key over one or
more value ranges. | 
 
ref_or_null | Like 'ref' but in addition another search
for the 'null' value is done if the first value was not
found. This happens usually with sub queries. | 
 
ref | A non unique index or prefix of an unique index is
used to find the rows. Good if the prefix doesn't match
many rows. | 
 
system | The table has 0 or 1 rows. | 
 
unique_subquery | This is similar as eq_ref, but used for
sub queries that are transformed to key lookups | 
 
"Extra" column
 
This column consists of one or more of the following values,
separated by ';'
 
 Note that some of these values are detected after the
optimization phase.
 
The optimization phase can do the following changes to the
WHERE clause:
Add the expressions from the ON and USING clauses to the
WHERE
 clause.
Constant propagation: If there is column=constant, replace
all column
 instances with this constant.
Replace all columns from 'const' tables with their values.
Remove the used key columns from the WHERE (as this will be
tested as
 part of the key lookup).
Remove impossible constant sub expressions.
 For example WHERE '(a=1 and a=2) OR b=1' becomes 'b=1'.
Replace columns with other columns that has identical
values:
 Example: WHERE a=b and a=c may be treated
 as 'WHERE a=b and a=c and b=c'.
Add extra conditions to detect impossible row conditions
earlier. This
 happens mainly with OUTER JOIN where we in some cases add
detection
 of NULL values in the WHERE (Part of 'Not exists'
optimization).
 This can cause an unexpected 'Using where' in the Extra
column.
For each table level we remove expressions that have already
been tested when
 we read the previous row. Example: When joining tables t1
with t2
 using the following WHERE 't1.a=1 and t1.a=t2.b', we
don't have to
 test 't1.a=1' when checking rows in t2 as we already know
that this
 expression is true. 
 
Value | Description | 
 
const row not found | The table was a system table (a table
with should exactly one row), but no row was found. | 
 
Distinct | If distinct optimization (remove duplicates) was
used. This is marked only for the last table in the SELECT.
| 
 
Full scan on NULL key | The table is a part of the sub query
and if the value that is used to match the sub query will be
NULL, we will do a full table scan. | 
 
Impossible HAVING | The used HAVING clause is always false
so the SELECT will return no rows. | 
 
Impossible WHERE noticed after reading const tables. | The
used WHERE clause is always false so the SELECT will return
no rows. This case was detected after we had read all
'const' tables and used the column values as constant in
the WHERE clause. For example: WHERE const_column=5 and
const_column had a value of 4. | 
 
Impossible WHERE | The used WHERE clause is always false so
the SELECT will return no rows. For example: WHERE 1=2 | 
 
No matching min/max row | During early optimization of
MIN()/MAX() values it was detected that no row could match
the WHERE clause. The MIN()/MAX() function will return NULL.
| 
 
no matching row in const table | The table was a const table
(a table with only one possible matching row), but no row
was found. | 
 
No tables used | The SELECT was a sub query that did not use
any tables. For example a there was no FROM clause or a FROM
DUAL clause. | 
 
Not exists | Stop searching after more row if we find one
single matching row. This optimization is used with LEFT
JOIN where one is explicitly searching for rows that
doesn't e�"lExists in the LEFT JOIN TABLE. Example: SELECT *
FROM t1 LEFT JOIN t2 on (...) WHERE t2.not_null_column IS
NULL. As t2.not_null_column can only be NULL if there was no
matching row for on condition, we can stop searching if we
find a single matching row. | 
 
Open_frm_only | For information_schema tables. Only the frm
(table definition file was opened) was opened for each
matching row. | 
 
Open_full_table | For information_schema tables. A full
table open for each matching row is done to retrieve the
requested information. (Slow) | 
 
Open_trigger_only | For information_schema tables. Only the
trigger file definition was opened for each matching row. | 
 
Range checked for each record (index map: ...) | This only
happens when there was no good default index to use but
there may some index that could be used when we can treat
all columns from previous table as constants. For each row
combination the optimizer will decide which index to use (if
any) to fetch a row from this table. This is not fast, but
faster than a full table scan that is the only other choice.
The index map is a bitmask that shows which index are
considered for each row condition. | 
 
Scanned 0/1/all databases | For information_schema tables.
Shows how many times we had to do a directory scan. | 
 
Select tables optimized away | All tables in the join was
optimized away. This happens when we are only using
COUNT(*), MIN() and MAX() functions in the SELECT and we
where able to replace all of these with constants. | 
 
Skip_open_table | For information_schema tables. The queried
table didn't need to be opened. | 
 
unique row not found | The table was detected to be a const
table (a table with only one possible matching row) during
the early optimization phase, but no row was found. | 
 
Using filesort | Filesort is needed to resolve the query.
This means an extra phase where we first collect all columns
to sort, sort them with a disk based merge sort and then use
the sorted set to retrieve the rows in sorted order. If the
column set is small, we store all the columns in the sort
file to not have to go to the database to retrieve them
again. | 
 
Using index | Only the index is used to retrieve the needed
information from the table. There is no need to perform an
extra seek to retrieve the actual record. | 
 
Using index condition | Like 'Using where' but the where
condition is pushed down to the table engine for internal
optimization at the index level. | 
 
Using index condition(BKA) | Like 'Using index condition'
but in addition we use batch key access to retrieve rows. | 
 
Using index for group-by | The index is being used to
resolve a GROUP BY or DISTINCT query. The rows are not read.
This is very efficient if the table has a lot of identical
index entries as duplicates are quickly jumped over. | 
 
Using intersect(...) | For index_merge joins. Shows which
index are part of the intersect. | 
 
Using join buffer | We store previous row combinations in a
row buffer to be able to match each row against all of the
rows combinations in the join buffer at one go. | 
 
Using sort_union(...) | For index_merge joins. Shows which
index are part of the union. | 
 
Using temporary | A temporary table is created to hold the
result. This typically happens if you are using GROUP BY,
DISTINCT or ORDER BY. | 
 
Using where | A WHERE expression (in additional to the
possible key lookup) is used to check if the row should be
accepted. If you don't have 'Using where' together with a
join type of ALL, you are probably doing something wrong! | 
 
Using where with pushed condition | Like 'Using where' but
the where condition is pushed down to the table engine for
internal optimization at the row level. | 
 
Using buffer | The UPDATE statement will first buffer the
rows, and then run the updates, rather than do updates on
the fly. See Using Buffer UPDATE Algorithm for a detailed
explanation. | 
 
EXPLAIN EXTENDED
 
The EXTENDED keyword adds another column, filtered, to the
output. This is a percentage estimate of the table rows that
will be filtered by the condition.
 
An EXPLAIN EXTENDED will always throw a warning, as it adds
extra Message information to a subsequent SHOW WARNINGS
statement. This includes what the SELECT query would look
like after optimizing and rewriting rules are applied and
how the optimizer qualifies columns and tables.

IS boolean_value
 
Description
----------- 
Tests a value against a boolean value, where boolean_value
can be
TRUE, FALSE, or UNKNOWN.
 
There is an important difference between using IS TRUE or
comparing a value with TRUE using =. When using =, only 1
equals to TRUE. But when using IS TRUE, all values which are
logically true (like a number > 1) return TRUE.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT 1 IS TRUE, 0 IS FALSE, NULL IS UNKNOWN;

Description
----------- 
With two or more arguments, returns the smallest

argument. The arguments are compared using the following
rules:
If the return value is used in an INTEGER context or all
arguments are integer-valued, they are compared as integers.
If the return value is used in a REAL context or all
arguments are real-valued, they are compared as reals.
If any argument is a case-sensitive string, the arguments
are compared as case-sensitive strings.
In all other cases, the arguments are compared as
case-insensitive strings.
 
LEAST() returns NULL if any argument is NULL.

����O�Da��
� �/	.ParenthesesParentheses are sometimes called precedence operators - this
means that they can be used to change the other operator's
precedence in an expression. The expressions that are
written between parentheses are computed before the
expressions that are written outside. Parentheses must
always contain an expression (that is, they cannot be
empty), and can be nested.
 
For example, the following expressions could return
different results:
NOT a OR b
NOT (a OR b)
 
In the first case, NOT applies to a, so if a is FALSE or b
is TRUE, the expression returns TRUE. In the second case,
NOT applies to the result of a OR b, so if at least one of a
or b is TRUE, the expression is TRUE.
 
When the precedence of operators is not intuitive, you can
use parentheses to make it immediately clear for whoever
reads the statement.
 
The precedence of the NOT operator can also be affected by
the HIGH_NOT_PRECEDENCE SQL_MODE flag.
 
Other uses
 
Parentheses must always be used to enclose subqueries.
 
Parentheses can also be used in a JOIN statement between
multiple tables to determine which tables must be joined
first.
 
Also, parentheses are used to enclose the list of parameters
to be passed to built-in functions, user-defined functions
and stored routines. However, when no parameter is passed to
a stored procedure, parentheses are optional. For builtin
functions and user-defined functions, spaces are not allowed
between the function name and the open parenthesis, unless
the IGNORE_SPACE SQL_MODE is set. For stored routines (and
for functions if IGNORE_SPACE is set) spaces are allowed
before the open parenthesis, including tab characters and
new line characters.
 
Syntax errors
 
If there are more open parentheses than closed parentheses,
the error usually looks like this:
 
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax;
check the manual that
corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right
syntax to use near '' a
t line 1
 
Note the empty string.
 
If there are more closed parentheses than open parentheses,
the error usually looks like this:
 
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax;
check the manual that
corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right
syntax to use near ')'
at line 1
 
Note the quoted closed parenthesis.

b0ANALYZE TABLESyntax
------ 
ANALYZE [NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG | LOCAL] TABLE tbl_name
[,tbl_name ...] 
 [PERSISTENT FOR [ALL|COLUMNS ([col_name [,col_name ...]])] 
 [INDEXES ([index_name [,index_name ...]])]] 
 
Description
----------- 
ANALYZE TABLE analyzes and stores the key distribution for a
table (index statistics). During the analysis, the table is
locked with a read lock. This statement works with MyISAM,
Aria and InnoDB tables. For MyISAM tables, this statement is
equivalent
to using myisamchk --analyze.
 
For more information on how the analysis works within
InnoDB, see
InnoDB Limitations.
 
MariaDB uses the stored key distribution to decide the order
in which
tables should be joined when you perform a join on something
other than
a constant. In addition, key distributions can be used when
deciding
which indexes to use for a specific table within a query.
 
This statement requires SELECT and INSERT privileges for the
table.
 
By default, ANALYZE TABLE statements are written to the
binary log and will be replicated. The NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG
keyword (LOCAL is an alias) will ensure the statement is not
written to the binary log. 
 
ANALYZE TABLE is also supported for partitioned tables. You
can use ALTER TABLE ... ANALYZE PARTITION to analyze one or
more partitions.
 
Engine-Independent Statistics
 
MariaDB 10.0.1 extended ANALYZE TABLE to support
engine-independent statistics.
 
Engine-independent statistics are collected by doing full
table and full index scans, and collecting can be quite
expensive. 
 
ANALYZE TABLE behavior depends on the value of the
use_stat_tables system variable.
 
If use_stat_tables is set to never (default in = MariaDB
10.4.1), ANALYZE TABLE t will collect storage engine
statistics, and not engine-independent statistics.
 
If use_stat_tables is set to complementary or preferably,
ANALYZE TABLE t will collect engine-independent statistics. 
 
In order to collect engine-independent statistics when
use_stat_tables is not set to one of the above two values
(it is not by default), the extended form of ANALYZE TABLE,
using PERSISTENT FOR, must be used. This also allows one to
collect statistics only for particular columns or indexes.
Note that engine-independent statistics are used by default
from MariaDB 10.4 (use_stat_tables=preferably_for_queries),
so you will probably want to use PERSISTENT FOR.
 
It is recommended to collect engine-independent statistics
on as-needed basis, so typically one will not have
engine-independent statistics for all indexes/all columns. 
 
Note that statistics for blob and text columns are not
collected. If explicitly specified, a warning is returned.
 
-- update all engine-independent statistics for all columns
and indexes
ANALYZE TABLE tbl PERSISTENT FOR ALL;
 
-- update specific columns and indexes:
ANALYZE TABLE tbl PERSISTENT FOR COLUMNS (col1,col2,...)
INDEXES (idx1,idx2,...);
 
-- empty lists are allowed:
ANALYZE TABLE tbl PERSISTENT FOR COLUMNS (col1,col2,...)
INDEXES ();
ANALYZE TABLE tbl PERSISTENT FOR COLUMNS () INDEXES
(idx1,idx2,...);
 
-- the following will only update mysql.table_stat fields:
ANALYZE TABLE tbl PERSISTENT FOR COLUMNS () INDEXES ();
 
-- with use_stat_tables = COMPLEMENTARY, a simple ANALYZE
TABLE 
-- collects engine-independent statistics for all columns
and indexes.
SET SESSION use_stat_tables='COMPLEMENTARY';
 
ANALYZE TABLE tbl;
 
The PERSISTENT FOR is required to update the
engine-independent statistics even if the table has the
option STATS_PERSISTENT=1 (which refers to InnoDB Persistent
Statistics).
 
The Aria storage engine supports progress reporting for the
ANALYZE TABLE statement.

����;CHECK TABLESyntax
------ 
CHECK TABLE tbl_name [, tbl_name] ... [option] ...
 
option = {FOR UPGRADE | QUICK | FAST | MEDIUM | EXTENDED |
CHANGED}
 
Description
----------- 
CHECK TABLE checks a table or tables for errors. CHECK TABLE
works for
Archive, Aria, CSV, InnoDB, and MyISAM tables. For Aria and
MyISAM tables, the
key statistics are updated as well. For CSV, see also
Checking and Repairing CSV Tables.
 
As an alternative, myisamchk is a commandline tool for
checking MyISAM tables when the tables are not being
accessed.
 
For checking dynamic columns integrity, COLUMN_CHECK() can
be used.
 
CHECK TABLE can also check views for problems, such as
tables
that are referenced in the view definition that no longer
exist.
 
CHECK TABLE is also supported for partitioned tables. You
can
use ALTER TABLE ... CHECK PARTITION 
to check one or more partitions.
 
The meaning of the different options are as follows - note
that this can vary a bit between
storage engines:
 
FOR UPGRADE | Do a very quick check if the storage format
for the table has changed so that one needs to do a REPAIR.
This is only needed when one upgrades between major versions
of MariaDB or MySQL. This is usually done by running
mysql_upgrade. | 
 
FAST | Only check tables that has not been closed properly
or are marked as corrupt. Only supported by the MyISAM and
Aria engines. For other engines the table is checked
normally | 
 
CHANGED | Check only tables that has changed since last
REPAIR / CHECK. Only supported by the MyISAM and Aria
engines. For other engines the table is checked normally. | 
 
QUICK | Do a fast check. For MyISAM and Aria engine this
means we skip checking the delete link chain which may take
some time. | 
 
MEDIUM | Scan also the data files. Checks integrity between
data and index files with checksums. In most cases this
should find all possible errors. | 
 
EXTENDED | Does a full check to verify every possible error.
For MyISAM and Aria we verify for each row that all it keys
exists and points to the row. This may take a long time on
big tables! | 
 
For most cases running CHECK TABLE without options or MEDIUM
should be
good enough.
 
Since MariaDB 5.3, the Aria storage engine supports progress
reporting for this statement.
 
If you want to know if two tables are identical, take a look
at CHECKSUM TABLE.
 
XtraDB/InnoDB
 
If CHECK TABLE finds an error in an InnoDB table, MariaDB
might shutdown to prevent the error propagation. In this
case, the problem will be reported in the error log.
Otherwise, since MariaDB 5.5, the table or an index might be
marked as corrupted, to prevent use. This does not happen
with some minor problems, like a wrong number of entries in
a secondary index. Those problems are reported in the output
of CHECK TABLE.
 
Each tablespace contains a header with metadata. This header
is not checked by this statement.
 
During the execution of CHECK TABLE, other threads may be
blocked.

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/sql-commands-check-table/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/sql-commands-check-table/��1CHECKSUM TABLESyntax
------ 
CHECKSUM TABLE tbl_name [, tbl_name] ... [ QUICK | EXTENDED
]
 
Description
----------- 
CHECKSUM TABLE reports a table checksum. This is very
useful if you want to know if two tables are the same (for
example on a master
and slave).
 
With QUICK, the live table checksum is reported if it is
available, or NULL otherwise. This is very fast. A live
checksum is enabled by specifying the CHECKSUM=1 table
option when you create the table; currently, this is
supported
only for Aria and MyISAM tables.
 
With EXTENDED, the entire table is read row by row and the
checksum is calculated. This can be very slow for large
tables.
 
If neither QUICK nor EXTENDED is
specified, MariaDB returns a live checksum if the table
storage engine supports
it and scans the table otherwise.
 
CHECKSUM TABLE requires the SELECT privilege for the table.
 
For a nonexistent table, CHECKSUM TABLE returns
NULL and generates a warning.
 
The table row format affects the checksum value. If the row
format changes, the checksum will change. This means that
when a table created with a MariaDB/MySQL version is
upgraded to another version, the checksum value will
probably change.
 
Two identical tables should always match to the same
checksum value; however, also for non-identical tables there
is a very slight chance that they will return the same value
as the hashing algorithm is not completely collision-free.
 
Differences Between MariaDB and MySQL
 
CHECKSUM TABLE may give a different result as MariaDB
doesn't
ignore NULLs in the columns as MySQL 5.1 does (Later MySQL
versions should calculate checksums the same way as
MariaDB). You can get the
'old style' checksum in MariaDB by starting mysqld with
the
--old option. Note however that that the MyISAM and Aria
storage engines in MariaDB are using the new checksum
internally, so if you are
using --old, the CHECKSUM command will be
slower as it needs to calculate the checksum row by row.

��1OPTIMIZE TABLESyntax
------ 
OPTIMIZE [NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG | LOCAL] TABLE
 tbl_name [, tbl_name] ...
 [WAIT n | NOWAIT]
 
Description
----------- 
OPTIMIZE TABLE has two main functions. It can either be used
to defragment tables, or to update the InnoDB fulltext
index.
 
WAIT/NOWAIT
 
Set the lock wait timeout. See WAIT and NOWAIT.
 
Defragmenting
 
OPTIMIZE TABLE works for InnoDB (before MariaDB 10.1.1, only
if the innodb_file_per_table server system variable is set),
Aria, MyISAM and ARCHIVE tables, and should be used if you
have deleted a large part of a table or if you have made
many changes to a table with variable-length
rows (tables that have VARCHAR, VARBINARY, BLOB, or TEXT
columns). Deleted rows are maintained in a
linked list and subsequent INSERT operations reuse old row
positions.
 
This statement requires SELECT and INSERT privileges for the
table.
 
By default, OPTIMIZE TABLE statements are written to the
binary log and will be replicated. The NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG
keyword (LOCAL is an alias) will ensure the statement is not
written to the binary log. 
 
OPTIMIZE TABLE is also supported for partitioned tables. You
can use 
ALTER TABLE ... OPTIMIZE PARTITION 
to optimize one or more partitions.
 
You can use OPTIMIZE TABLE to reclaim the unused
space and to defragment the data file. With other storage
engines, OPTIMIZE TABLE does nothing by default, and returns
this message: " The storage engine for the table doesn't
support optimize". However, if the server has been started
with the --skip-new option, OPTIMIZE TABLE is linked to
ALTER TABLE, and recreates the table. This operation frees
the unused space and updates index statistics.
 
Since MariaDB 5.3, the Aria storage engine supports progress
reporting for this statement.
 
If a MyISAM table is fragmented, concurrent inserts will not
be performed until an OPTIMIZE TABLE statement is executed
on that table, unless the concurrent_insert server system
variable is set to ALWAYS.
 
Updating an InnoDB fulltext index
 
When rows are added or deleted to an InnoDB fulltext index,
the index is not immediately re-organized, as this can be an
expensive operation. Change statistics are stored in a
separate location . The fulltext index is only fully
re-organized when an OPTIMIZE TABLE statement is run.
 
By default, an OPTIMIZE TABLE will defragment a table. In
order to use it to update fulltext index statistics, the
innodb_optimize_fulltext_only system variable must be set to
1. This is intended to be a temporary setting, and should be
reset to 0 once the fulltext index has been re-organized.
 
Since fulltext re-organization can take a long time, the
innodb_ft_num_word_optimize variable limits the
re-organization to a number of words (2000 by default). You
can run multiple OPTIMIZE statements to fully re-organize
the index.
 
Defragmenting InnoDB tablespaces
 
MariaDB 10.1.1 merged the Facebook/Kakao defragmentation
patch 
 
MariaDB 10.1.1 merged the Facebook/Kakao defragmentation
patch, allowing one to use OPTIMIZE TABLE to defragment
InnoDB tablespaces. For this functionality to be enabled,
the innodb_defragment system variable must be enabled. No
new tables are created and there is no need to copy data
from old tables to new tables. Instead, this feature loads n
pages (determined by innodb-defragment-n-pages) and tries to
move records so that pages would be full of records and then
frees pages that are fully empty after the operation. Note
that tablespace files (including ibdata1) will not shrink as
the result of defragmentation, but one will get better
memory utilization in the InnoDB buffer pool as there are
fewer data pages in use.
 
See Defragmenting InnoDB Tablespaces for more details.

/REPAIR TABLESyntax
------ 
REPAIR [NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG | LOCAL] TABLE
 tbl_name [, tbl_name] ...
 [QUICK] [EXTENDED] [USE_FRM]
 
Description
----------- 
REPAIR TABLE repairs a possibly corrupted table. By default,
it has the same effect as
 
myisamchk --recover tbl_name
 
or
 
aria_chk --recover tbl_name
 
See aria_chk and myisamchk for more.
 
REPAIR TABLE works for Archive, Aria, CSV and MyISAM tables.
For XtraDB/InnoDB, see recovery modes. For CSV, see also
Checking and Repairing CSV Tables. For Archive, this
statement also improves compression. If the storage engine
does not support this statement, a warning is issued.
 
This statement requires SELECT and INSERT privileges for the
table.
 
By default, REPAIR TABLE statements are written to the
binary log and will be replicated. The NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG
keyword (LOCAL is an alias) will ensure the statement is not
written to the binary log.
 
When an index is recreated, the storage engine may use a
configurable buffer in the process. Incrementing the buffer
speeds up the index creation. Aria and MyISAM allocate a
buffer whose size is defined by aria_sort_buffer_size or
myisam_sort_buffer_size, also used for ALTER TABLE.
 
REPAIR TABLE is also supported for partitioned tables.
However, the USE_FRM option cannot be used with this
statement
on a partitioned table.
 
 ALTER TABLE ... REPAIR PARTITION can be used
to repair one or more partitions.
 
The Aria storage engine supports progress reporting for this
statement.

Description
----------- 
Given a day number N, returns a DATE value. The day count is

The function is not designed for use with dates before the
advent of the Gregorian calendar in October 1582. Results
will not be reliable since it doesn't account for the lost
days when the calendar changed from the Julian calendar.
 
This is the converse of the TO_DAYS() function.

j.REPAIR VIEWREPAIR VIEW was introduced in MariaDB 10.0.18 and MariaDB
5.5.43.
 
Syntax
------ 
REPAIR [NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG | LOCAL] VIEW view_name[,
view_name] ... [FROM MYSQL]
 
Description
----------- 
The REPAIR VIEW statement was introduced to assist with
fixing MDEV-6916, an issue introduced in MariaDB 5.2 where
the view algorithms were swapped compared to their MySQL on
disk representation. It checks whether the view algorithm is
correct. It is run as part of mysql_upgrade, and should not
normally be required in regular use.
 
By default it corrects the checksum and if necessary adds
the mariadb-version field. If the optional FROM MYSQL clause
is used, and no mariadb-version field is present, the MERGE
and TEMPTABLE algorithms are toggled.
 
By default, REPAIR VIEW statements are written to the binary
log and will be replicated. The NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG keyword
(LOCAL is an alias) will ensure the statement is not written
to the binary log.
 
Note that REPAIR VIEW in MariaDB 10.0.18 and MariaDB 5.5.43
could crash the server (see MDEV-8115). Upgrade to a later
version.

}6CREATE FUNCTION UDFSyntax
------ 
CREATE [OR REPLACE] [AGGREGATE] FUNCTION [IF NOT EXISTS]
function_name
 RETURNS {STRING|INTEGER|REAL|DECIMAL}
 SONAME shared_library_name
 
Description
----------- 
A user-defined function (UDF) is a way to extend MariaDB
with a new function
that works like a native (built-in) MariaDB function such as
ABS() or
CONCAT().
 
function_name is the name that should be used in SQL
statements to invoke
the function. 
 
To create a function, you must have the INSERT privilege for
the
mysql database. This is necessary because CREATE FUNCTION
adds a row to the
mysql.func system table that records the function's name,
type, and shared library name. If you do not have this
table, you should run
the mysql_upgrade command to create it.
 
UDFs need to be written in C, C++ or another language that
uses C calling
conventions, MariaDB needs to have been dynamically
compiled, and your
operating system must support dynamic loading.
 
For an example, see sql/udf_example.cc in the source tree.
For a collection of existing UDFs see
http://www.mysqludf.org/.
 
Statements making use of user-defined functions are not
safe for replication.
 
For creating a stored function as opposed to a user-defined
function, see
CREATE FUNCTION.
 
For valid identifiers to use as function names, see
Identifier Names.
 
RETURNS
 
The RETURNS clause indicates the type of the function's
return value, and can be one of STRING, INTEGER, REAL or
DECIMAL. DECIMAL functions currently return string values
and should be written like STRING functions.
 
shared_library_name
 
shared_library_name is the basename of the shared object
file that contains
the code that implements the function. The file must be
located in the plugin
directory. This directory is given by the value of the
plugin_dir system variable. Note that
before MariaDB/MySQL 5.1, the shared object could be located
in any directory
that was searched by your system's dynamic linker.
 
AGGREGATE
 
Aggregate functions are summary functions such as SUM() and
AVG().
 
Aggregate UDF functions can be used as window functions.
 
OR REPLACE
 
The OR REPLACE clause was added in MariaDB 10.1.3
 
If the optional OR REPLACE clause is used, it acts as a
shortcut for:
 
DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS function_name;
 
CREATE FUNCTION name ...;
 
IF NOT EXISTS
 
The IF NOT EXISTS clause was added in MariaDB 10.1.3
 
When the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a
warning instead of an error if the specified function
already exists. Cannot be used together with OR REPLACE.
 
Upgrading a UDF
 
To upgrade the UDF's shared library, first run a
DROP FUNCTION statement, then upgrade the shared library and
finally run the CREATE FUNCTION statement. If you upgrade
without following
this process, you may crash the server.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE FUNCTION jsoncontains_path RETURNS integer SONAME
'ha_connect.so';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
 
OR REPLACE and IF NOT EXISTS:
 
CREATE FUNCTION jsoncontains_path RETURNS integer SONAME

14DROP FUNCTION UDFSyntax
------ 
DROP FUNCTION [IF EXISTS] function_name
 
Description
----------- 
This statement drops the user-defined function (UDF) named
function_name.
 
To drop a function, you must have the DELETE privilege for
the mysql database. This is because DROP FUNCTION removes
the row from the mysql.func system table that records the
function's name, type and shared library name.
 
For dropping a stored function, see DROP FUNCTION.

�BCreating User-Defined FunctionsUser-defined functions allow MariaDB to be extended with a
new function that works like a native (built-in) MariaDB
function such as ABS() or CONCAT(). There are alternative
ways to add a new function: writing a native function (which
requires modifying and compiling the server source code), or
writing a stored function.
 
Statements making use of user-defined functions are not safe
for replication.
 
Functions are written in C or C++, and to make use of them,
the operating system must support dynamic loading. 
 
Each new SQL function requires corresponding functions
written in C/C++. In the list below, at least the main
function - x() - and one other, are required. x should be
replaced by the name of the function you are creating.
 
All functions need to be thread-safe, so not global or
static variables that change can be allocated. Memory is
allocated in x_init()/ and freed in x_deinit(). 
 
Simple Functions
 
x()
 
Required for all UDF's, this is where the results are
calculated.
 
C/C++ type | SQL type | 
 
char * | STRING | 
 
long long | INTEGER | 
 
double | REAL | 
 
DECIMAL functions return string values, and so should be
written accordingly. It is not possible to create ROW
functions.
 
x_init()
 
Initialization function for x(). Can be used for the
following:
Check the number of arguments to X() (the SQL equivalent).
Verify the argument types, or to force arguments to be of a
particular type after the function is called.
Specify whether the result can be NULL.
Specify the maximum result length.
For REAL functions, specify the maximum number of decimals
for the result.
Allocate any required memory.
 To verify that the arguments are of a required type or,
alternatively, to tell MySQL to coerce arguments to the
required types when the main function is called.
 
x_deinit()
 
De-initialization function for x(). Used to de-allocate
memory that was allocated in x_init().
 
Description
----------- 
Each time the SQL function X() is called:
MariaDB will first call the C/C++ initialization function,
x_init(), assuming it exists. All setup will be performed,
and if it returns an error, the SQL statement is aborted and
no further functions are called.
If there is no x_init() function, or it has been called and
did not return an error, x() is then called once per row.
After all rows have finished processing, x_deinit() is
called, if present, to clean up by de-allocating any memory
that was allocated in x_init().
See User-defined Functions Calling Sequences for more
details on the functions.
 
Aggregate Functions
 
The following functions are required for aggregate
functions, such as AVG() and SUM(). 
 
x_clear()
 
Used to reset the current aggregate, but without inserting
the argument as the initial aggregate value for the new
group.
 
x_add()
 
Used to add the argument to the current aggregate. 
 
x_remove()
 
Staring from MariaDB 10.4 it improves the support of window
functions (so it is not obligatory to add it) and should
remove the argument from the current aggregate.
 
Description
----------- 
Each time the aggregate SQL function X() is called:
MariaDB will first call the C/C++ initialization function,
x_init(), assuming it exists. All setup will be performed,
and if it returns an error, the SQL statement is aborted and
no further functions are called.
If there is no x_init() function, or it has been called and
did not return an error, x() is then called once per row.
After all rows have finished processing, x_deinit() is
called, if present, to clean up by de-allocating any memory
that was allocated in x_init().
 
MariaDB will first call the C/C++ initialization function,
x_init(), assuming it exists. All setup will be performed,
and if it returns an error, the SQL statement is aborted and
no further functions are called.
The table is sorted according to the GROUP BY expression.
x_clear() is called for the first row of each new group.
x_add() is called once per row for each row in the same
group.
x() is called when the group changes, or after the last row,
to get the aggregate result. 
The latter three steps are repeated until all rows have been
processed.
After all rows have finished processing, x_deinit() is
called, if present, to clean up by de-allocating any memory
that was allocated in x_init().

(XKUser-Defined Functions Calling SequencesThe functions described in Creating User-defined Functions
are expanded on this page. They are declared as follows:
 
Simple Functions
 
x()
 
If x() returns an integer, it is declared as follows:
 
long long x(UDF_INIT *initid, UDF_ARGS *args,
 char *is_null, char *error);
 
If x() returns a string (DECIMAL functions also return
string values), it is declared as follows:
 
char *x(UDF_INIT *initid, UDF_ARGS *args,
 char *result, unsigned long *length,
 char *is_null, char *error);
 
If x() returns a real, it is declared as follows:
 
double x(UDF_INIT *initid, UDF_ARGS *args,
 char *is_null, char *error);
 
x_init()
 
my_bool x_init(UDF_INIT *initid, UDF_ARGS *args, char
*message);
 
x_deinit()
 
void x_deinit(UDF_INIT *initid);
 
Description
----------- 
initid is a parameter passed to all three functions that
points to a UDF_INIT structure, used for communicating
information between the functions. Its structure members
are:
my_bool maybe_null
maybe_null should be set to 1 if x_init can return a NULL
value, Defaults to 1 if any arguments are declared
maybe_null.
 
unsigned int decimals
Number of decimals after the decimal point. The default, if
an explicit number of decimals is passed in the arguments to
the main function, is the maximum number of decimals, so if
9.5, 9.55 and 9.555 are passed to the function, the default
would be three (based on 9.555, the maximum). If there are
no explicit number of decimals, the default is set to 31, or
one more than the maximum for the DOUBLE, FLOAT and DECIMAL
types. This default can be changed in the function to suit
the actual calculation.
 
unsigned int max_length
Maximum length of the result. For integers, the default is
21. For strings, the length of the longest argument. For
reals, the default is 13 plus the number of decimals
indicated by initid->decimals. The length includes any signs
or decimal points. Can also be set to 65KB or 16MB in order
to return a BLOB. The memory remains unallocated, but this
is used to decide on the data type to use if the data needs
to be temporarily stored.
 
char *ptr
A pointer for use as required by the function. Commonly,
initid->ptr is used to communicate allocated memory, with
x_init() allocating the memory and assigning it to this
pointer, x() using it, and x_deinit() de-allocating it.
 
my_bool const_item
Should be set to 1 in x_init() if x() always returns the
same value, otherwise 0.
 

Aggregate Functions
 
x_clear()
 
x_clear() is a required function for aggregate functions,
and is declared as follows:
 
void x_clear(UDF_INIT *initid, char *is_null, char *error);
 
It is called when the summary results need to be reset, that
is at the beginning of each new group. but also to reset the
values when there were no matching rows.
 
is_null is set to point to CHAR(0) before calling x_clear().
 
In the case of an error, you can store the value to which
the error argument points (a single-byte variable, not a
string string buffer) in the variable.
 
x_reset()
 
x_reset() is declared as follows:
 
void x_reset(UDF_INIT *initid, UDF_ARGS *args,
 char *is_null, char *error);
 
It is called on finding the first row in a new group. Should
reset the summary variables, and then use UDF_ARGS as the
first value in the group's internal summary value. The
function is not required if the UDF interface uses
x_clear().
 
x_add()
 
x_add() is declared as follows:
 
void x_add(UDF_INIT *initid, UDF_ARGS *args,
 char *is_null, char *error);
 
It is called for all rows belonging to the same group, and
should be used to add the value in UDF_ARGS to the internal
summary variable.
 
x_remove()
 
x_remove() was added in MariaDB 10.4 and is declared as
follows (same as x_add()):
 
void x_remove(UDF_INIT* initid, UDF_ARGS* args,
 char* is_null, char *error );
 
It adds more efficient support of aggregate UDFs as window
functions. x_remove() should "subtract" the row (reverse
x_add()). In MariaDB 10.4 aggregate UDFs will work as WINDOW
functions without x_remove() but it will not be so
efficient.
 
If x_remove() supported (defined) detected automatically.

!BUser-Defined Functions SecurityThe MariaDB server imposes a number of limitations on
user-defined functions for security purposes.
The INSERT privilege for the mysql database is required to
run CREATE FUNCTION, as a record will be added to the
mysql.func-table.
The DELETE privilege for the mysql database is required to
run DROP FUNCTION as the corresponding record will be
removed from the mysql.func-table.
UDF object files can only be placed in the plugin directory,
as specified by the value of the plugin_dir system variable.
At least one symbol, beyond the required x() - corresponding
to an SQL function X()) - is required. These can be
x_init(), x_deinit(), xxx_reset(), x_clear() and x_add()
functions (see Creating User-defined Functions). The
allow-suspicious-udfs mysqld option (by default unset)
provides a workaround, permitting only one symbol to be
used. This is not recommended, as it opens the possibility
of loading shared objects that are not legitimate
user-defined functions.

2mysql.func TableThe mysql.func table stores information about user-defined
functions (UDFs) created with the CREATE FUNCTION UDF
statement.
 
In MariaDB 10.4 and later, this table uses the Aria storage
engine.
 
MariaDB until 10.3
 
In MariaDB 10.3 and before, this table uses the MyISAM
storage engine.
 
The mysql.func table contains the following fields:
 
Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Description | 
 
name | char(64) | NO | PRI |  | UDF name | 
 
ret | tinyint(1) | NO |  | 0 |  | 
 
dl | char(128) | NO |  |  | Shared library name | 
 
type | enum('function','aggregate') | NO |  | NULL |
Type, either function or aggregate. Aggregate functions are
summary functions such as SUM() and AVG(). |

�1AUTO_INCREMENTDescription
----------- 
The AUTO_INCREMENT attribute can be used to generate a
unique identity for new rows. When you insert a new record
to the table, and the auto_increment field is NULL or
DEFAULT, the value will automatically be incremented. This
also applies to 0, unless the NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO SQL_MODE
is enabled.
 
AUTO_INCREMENT columns start from 1 by default. The
automatically generated value can never be lower than 0.
 
Each table can have only one AUTO_INCREMENT column. It must
defined as a key (not necessarily the PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE
key). In some storage engines (including the default
InnoDB), if the key consists of multiple columns, the
AUTO_INCREMENT column must be the first column. Storage
engines that permit the column to be placed elsewhere are
Aria, MyISAM, MERGE, Spider, TokuDB, BLACKHOLE, FederatedX
and Federated.
 
CREATE TABLE animals (
 id MEDIUMINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 name CHAR(30) NOT NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (id)
 );
 
INSERT INTO animals (name) VALUES
 ('dog'),('cat'),('penguin'),
 ('fox'),('whale'),('ostrich');
 
SELECT * FROM animals;
 
+----+---------+
| id | name |
+----+---------+
| 1 | dog |
| 2 | cat |
| 3 | penguin |
| 4 | fox |
| 5 | whale |
| 6 | ostrich |
+----+---------+
 
SERIAL is an alias for BIGINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL
AUTO_INCREMENT UNIQUE.
 
CREATE TABLE t (id SERIAL, c CHAR(1)) ENGINE=InnoDB;
 
SHOW CREATE TABLE t \G
*************************** 1. row
***************************
 Table: t
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `t` (
 `id` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 `c` char(1) DEFAULT NULL,
 UNIQUE KEY `id` (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1
 
Setting or Changing the Auto_Increment Value
 
You can use an ALTER TABLE statement to assign a new value
to the auto_increment table option, or set the insert_id
server system variable to change the next AUTO_INCREMENT
value inserted by the current session.
 
LAST_INSERT_ID() can be used to see the last AUTO_INCREMENT
value inserted by the current session.
 
ALTER TABLE animals AUTO_INCREMENT=8;
 
INSERT INTO animals (name) VALUES ('aardvark');
 
SELECT * FROM animals;
 
+----+-----------+
| id | name |
+----+-----------+
| 1 | dog |
| 2 | cat |
| 3 | penguin |
| 4 | fox |
| 5 | whale |
| 6 | ostrich |
| 8 | aardvark |
+----+-----------+
 
SET insert_id=12;
 
INSERT INTO animals (name) VALUES ('gorilla');

| 2 | cat |
| 3 | penguin |
| 4 | fox |
| 5 | whale |
| 6 | ostrich |
| 8 | aardvark |
| 12 | gorilla |
+----+-----------+
 
InnoDB/XtraDB
 
Until MariaDB 10.2.3, InnoDB and XtraDB used an
auto-increment counter that is stored in memory. When the
server restarts, the counter is re-initialized to the
highest value used in the table, which cancels the effects
of any AUTO_INCREMENT = N option in the table statements.
 
From MariaDB 10.2.4, this restriction has been lifted and
AUTO_INCREMENT is persistent.
 
See also AUTO_INCREMENT Handling in XtraDB/InnoDB.
 
Setting Explicit Values
 
It is possible to specify a value for an AUTO_INCREMENT
column. The value must not exist in the key.
 
If the new value is higher than the current maximum value,
the AUTO_INCREMENT value is updated, so the next value will
be higher. If the new value is lower than the current
maximum value, the AUTO_INCREMENT value remains unchanged.
 
The following example demonstrates these behaviours:
 
CREATE TABLE t (id INTEGER UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY
KEY) ENGINE = InnoDB;
 
INSERT INTO t VALUES (NULL);
SELECT id FROM t;
 
+----+
| id |
+----+
| 1 |
+----+
 
INSERT INTO t VALUES (10); -- higher value
SELECT id FROM t;
 
+----+
| id |
+----+
| 1 |
| 10 |
+----+
 
INSERT INTO t VALUES (2); -- lower value
INSERT INTO t VALUES (NULL); -- auto value
SELECT id FROM t;
 
+----+
| id |
+----+
| 1 |
| 2 |
| 10 |
| 11 |
+----+
 
The ARCHIVE storage engine does not allow to insert a value
that is lower than the current maximum.
 
Missing Values
 
An AUTO_INCREMENT column normally has missing values. This
happens because if a row is deleted, or an AUTO_INCREMENT
value is explicitly updated, old values are never re-used.
The REPLACE statement also deletes a row, and its value is
wasted. With InnoDB, values can be reserved by a
transaction; but if the transaction fails (for example,
because of a ROLLBACK) the reserved value will be lost.
 
Thus AUTO_INCREMENT values can be used to sort results in a
chronological order, but not to create a numeric sequence.
 
Replication
 
To make master-master or Galera safe to use AUTO_INCREMENT
one should use the system variables 
 auto_increment_increment and auto_increment_offset to
generate unique values for each server.
 
CHECK Constraints, DEFAULT Values and Virtual Columns
 
From MariaDB 10.2.6 auto_increment columns are no longer
permitted in CHECK constraints, DEFAULT value expressions
and virtual columns. They were permitted in earlier
versions, but did not work correctly. See MDEV-11117.

Description
----------- 
A large integer. The signed range is -9223372036854775808 to

)BINARYSyntax
------ 
BINARY(M)
 
Description
----------- 
The BINARY type is similar to the CHAR type, but stores
binary
byte strings rather than non-binary character strings. M
represents the
column length in bytes.
 
It contains no character set, and comparison and sorting are
based on the numeric value of the bytes.
 
If the maximum length is exceeded, and SQL strict mode is
not enabled , the extra characters will be dropped with a
warning. If strict mode is enabled, an error will occur.
 
BINARY values are right-padded with 0x00 (the zero byte) to
the specified length when inserted. The padding is not
removed on select, so this needs to be taken into account
when sorting and comparing, where all bytes are significant.
The zero byte, 0x00 is less than a space for comparison
purposes.
 
Examples
-------- 
Inserting too many characters, first with strict mode off,
then with it on:
 
CREATE TABLE bins (a BINARY(10));
 
INSERT INTO bins VALUES('12345678901');
Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.04 sec)
 
SELECT * FROM bins;
 
+------------+
| a |
+------------+
| 1234567890 |
+------------+
 
SET sql_mode='STRICT_ALL_TABLES';
 
INSERT INTO bins VALUES('12345678901');
ERROR 1406 (22001): Data too long for column 'a' at row 1
 
Sorting is performed with the byte value:
 
TRUNCATE bins;
 
INSERT INTO bins VALUES('A'),('B'),('a'),('b');
 
SELECT * FROM bins ORDER BY a;
 
+------+
| a |
+------+
| A |
| B |
| a |
| b |
+------+
 
Using CAST to sort as a CHAR instead:
 
SELECT * FROM bins ORDER BY CAST(a AS CHAR);
+------+
| a |
+------+
| a |
| A |
| b |
| B |
+------+
 
The field is a BINARY(10), so padding of two '\0's are
inserted, causing comparisons that don't take this into
account to fail:
 
TRUNCATE bins;
 
INSERT INTO bins VALUES('12345678');
 
SELECT a = '12345678', a = '12345678\0\0' from bins;
 
+----------------+--------------------+
| a = '12345678' | a = '12345678\0\0' |

�&BITSyntax
------ 
BIT[(M)]
 
Description
----------- 
A bit-field type. M indicates the number of bits per value,
from 1 to
64. The default is 1 if M is omitted.
 
Bit values can be inserted with b'value' notation, where
value is the bit value in 0's and 1's.
 
Bit fields are automatically zero-padded from the left to
the full length of the bit, so for example in a BIT(4)
field, '10' is equivalent to '0010'.
 
Bits are returned as binary, so to display them, either add
0, or use a function such as HEX, OCT or BIN to convert
them.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE b ( b1 BIT(8) );
INSERT INTO b VALUES
(b'11111111'),(b'01010101'),(b'1111111111111');

�'BLOBSyntax
------ 
BLOB[(M)]
 
Description
----------- 
A BLOB column with a maximum length of 65,535 (216 - 1)
bytes. Each
BLOB value is stored using a two-byte length prefix that
indicates the
number of bytes in the value.
 
An optional length M can be given for this type. If this is
done,
MariaDB creates the column as the smallest BLOB type large
enough to
hold values M bytes long.
 
BLOBS can also be used to store dynamic columns.
 
Before MariaDB 10.2.1, BLOB and TEXT columns could not be
assigned a DEFAULT value. This restriction was lifted in
MariaDB 10.2.1.
 
Indexing
 
In MariaDB 10.4, it is possible to set a Unique index on a
column that uses the BLOB data type. In previous releases
this was not possible, as the index would only guarantee the
uniqueness of a fixed number of characters.
 
Oracle Mode
 
In Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3, BLOB is a synonym for
LONGBLOB.

�*BOOLEANSyntax
------ 
BOOL, BOOLEAN
 
Description
----------- 
These types are synonyms for TINYINT(1). 
A value of zero is considered false. Non-zero values are
considered true:
 
mysql> SELECT IF(0, 'true', 'false');
+------------------------+
| IF(0, 'true', 'false') |
+------------------------+
| false |
+------------------------+
 
mysql> SELECT IF(1, 'true', 'false');
+------------------------+

+------------------------+
 
mysql> SELECT IF(2, 'true', 'false');
+------------------------+
| IF(2, 'true', 'false') |
+------------------------+
| true |
+------------------------+
 
However, the values TRUE and FALSE are merely aliases for 1
and 0,
respectively, as shown here:
 
mysql> SELECT IF(0 = FALSE, 'true', 'false');
 
+--------------------------------+
| IF(0 = FALSE, 'true', 'false') |

k'CHARThis article covers the CHAR data type. See CHAR Function
for the function.
 
Syntax
------ 
[NATIONAL] CHAR[(M)] [CHARACTER SET charset_name] [COLLATE
collation_name]
 
Description
----------- 
A fixed-length string that is always right-padded with
spaces to the specified
length when stored. M represents the column length in
characters. The range
of M is 0 to 255. If M is omitted, the length is 1.
 
CHAR(0) columns can contain 2 values: an empty string or
NULL. Such columns cannot be part of an index. The CONNECT
storage engine does not support CHAR(0).
 
Note: Trailing spaces are removed when CHAR values are
retrieved
unless the PAD_CHAR_TO_FULL_LENGTH SQL mode is enabled.
 
Before MariaDB 10.2, all collations were of type PADSPACE,
meaning that CHAR (as well as VARCHAR and TEXT) values are
compared without regard for trailing spaces. This does not
apply to the LIKE pattern-matching operator, which takes
into account trailing spaces.
 
If a unique index consists of a column where trailing pad
characters are stripped or ignored, inserts into that column
where values differ only by the number of trailing pad
characters will result in a duplicate-key error.
 
Examples
-------- 
Trailing spaces:
 
CREATE TABLE strtest (c CHAR(10));
INSERT INTO strtest VALUES('Maria ');
 
SELECT c='Maria',c='Maria ' FROM strtest;
 
+-----------+--------------+
| c='Maria' | c='Maria ' |
+-----------+--------------+
| 1 | 1 |
+-----------+--------------+
 
SELECT c LIKE 'Maria',c LIKE 'Maria ' FROM strtest;
 
+----------------+-------------------+
| c LIKE 'Maria' | c LIKE 'Maria ' |
+----------------+-------------------+
| 1 | 0 |
+----------------+-------------------+
 
NO PAD Collations
 
NO PAD collations regard trailing spaces as normal
characters. You can get a list of all NO PAD collations by
querying the Information Schema Collations table, for
example:
 
SELECT collation_name FROM information_schema.collations 
 WHERE collation_name LIKE "%nopad%";
 
+------------------------------+
| collation_name |
+------------------------------+
| big5_chinese_nopad_ci |
| big5_nopad_bin |

�'DATESyntax
------ 
DATE
 
Description
----------- 
A date. The supported range is '1000-01-01' to
'9999-12-31'. MariaDB
displays DATE values in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format, but can be
assigned dates in looser formats, including strings or
numbers, as long as they make sense. These include a short
year, YY-MM-DD, no delimiters, YYMMDD, or any other
acceptable delimiter, for example YYYY/MM/DD. For details,
see date and time literals.
 
'0000-00-00' is a permitted special value (zero-date),
unless the NO_ZERO_DATE SQL_MODE is used. Also, individual
components of a date can be set to 0 (for example:
'2015-00-12'), unless the NO_ZERO_IN_DATE SQL_MODE is
used. In many cases, the result of en expression involving a
zero-date, or a date with zero-parts, is NULL. If the
ALLOW_INVALID_DATES SQL_MODE is enabled, if the day part is
in the range between 1 and 31, the date does not produce any
error, even for months that have less than 31 days.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE t1 (d DATE);
 
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES ("2010-01-12"), ("2011-2-28"),
('120314'),('13*04*21');
 
SELECT * FROM t1;

�+DATETIMESyntax
------ 
DATETIME [(microsecond precision)]
 
Description
----------- 
A date and time combination. The supported range is
'1000-01-01 00:00:00.000000' to '9999-12-31
23:59:59.999999'.
MariaDB displays DATETIME values in 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS'
format, but
allows assignment of values to DATETIME columns using either
strings or
numbers. For details, see date and time literals.
 
The microsecond precision can be from 0-6. If not specified
0 is used.
 
'0000-00-00' is a permitted special value (zero-date),
unless the NO_ZERO_DATE SQL_MODE is used. Also, individual
components of a date can be set to 0 (for example:
'2015-00-12'), unless the NO_ZERO_IN_DATE SQL_MODE is
used. In many cases, the result of en expression involving a
zero-date, or a date with zero-parts, is NULL. If the
ALLOW_INVALID_DATES SQL_MODE is enabled, if the day part is
in the range between 1 and 31, the date does not produce any
error, even for months that have less than 31 days.
 
Since MariaDB 10.0.1, DATETIME columns also accept
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as the default value.
 
MariaDB 10.1.2 introduced the --mysql56-temporal-format
option, on by default, which allows MariaDB to store
DATETMEs using the same low-level format MySQL 5.6 uses. For
more information, see Internal Format, below.
 
For storage requirements, see Data Type Storage
Requirements.
 
Oracle Mode
 
In Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3, DATE with a time portion
is a synonym for DATETIME.
 
Internal Format
 
In MariaDB 10.1.2 a new temporal format was introduced from
MySQL 5.6 that alters how the TIME, DATETIME and TIMESTAMP
columns operate at lower levels. These changes allow these
temporal data types to have fractional parts and negative
values. You can disable this feature using the
mysql56_temporal_format system variable.
 
Tables that include TIMESTAMP values that were created on an
older version of MariaDB or that were created while the
mysql56_temporal_format system variable was disabled
continue to store data using the older data type format.
 
In order to update table columns from the older format to
the newer format, execute an ALTER TABLE... MODIFY COLUMN
statement that changes the column to the *same* data type.
This change may be needed if you want to export the table's
tablespace and import it onto a server that has
mysql56_temporal_format=ON set (see MDEV-15225).
 
For instance, if you have a DATETIME column in your table: 
 
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'mysql56_temporal_format';
 
+-------------------------+-------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+-------------------------+-------+
| mysql56_temporal_format | ON |
+-------------------------+-------+
 
ALTER TABLE example_table MODIFY ts_col DATETIME;
 
When MariaDB executes the ALTER TABLE statement, it converts
the data from the older temporal format to the newer one. 
 
In the event that you have several tables and columns using
temporal data types that you want to switch over to the new
format, make sure the system variable is enabled, then
perform a dump and restore using mysqldump. The columns
using relevant temporal data types are restored using the
new temporal format.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE t1 (d DATETIME);
 
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES ("2011-03-11"), ("2012-04-19
13:08:22"),
 ("2013-07-18 13:44:22.123456");
 
SELECT * FROM t1;
 
+---------------------+
| d |
+---------------------+
| 2011-03-11 00:00:00 |
| 2012-04-19 13:08:22 |
| 2013-07-18 13:44:22 |
+---------------------+
 
CREATE TABLE t2 (d DATETIME(6));
 
INSERT INTO t2 VALUES ("2011-03-11"), ("2012-04-19
13:08:22"),
 ("2013-07-18 13:44:22.123456");
 
SELECT * FROM t2;

| 2011-03-11 00:00:00.000000 |
| 2012-04-19 13:08:22.000000 |
| 2013-07-18 13:44:22.123456 |
+----------------------------++
 
Strings used in datetime context are automatically converted
to datetime(6). If you want to have a datetime without
seconds, you should use CONVERT(..,datetime).
 
SELECT CONVERT('2007-11-30 10:30:19',datetime);
+-----------------------------------------+
| CONVERT('2007-11-30 10:30:19',datetime) |

�*DECIMALSyntax
------ 
DECIMAL[(M[,D])] [SIGNED | UNSIGNED | ZEROFILL]
 
Description
----------- 
A packed "exact" fixed-point number. M is the total number
of digits (the
precision) and D is the number of digits after the decimal
point (the
scale). The decimal point and (for negative numbers) the
"-" sign are not
counted in M. If D is 0, values have no decimal point or
fractional
part and on INSERT the value will be rounded to the nearest
DECIMAL. The maximum number of digits (M) for DECIMAL is 65.
The maximum number of supported decimals (D) is 30 before
MariadB 10.2.1 and 38 afterwards. If D is omitted, the
default is 0. If M is omitted, the default is 10.
 
UNSIGNED, if specified, disallows negative values.
 
ZEROFILL, if specified, pads the number with zeros, up to
the total number
of digits specified by M.
 
All basic calculations (+, -, *, /) with DECIMAL columns are
done with
a precision of 65 digits.

Overview.

�'ENUMSyntax
------ 
ENUM('value1','value2',...) [CHARACTER SET charset_name]
[COLLATE collation_name]
 
Description
----------- 
An enumeration. A string object that can have only one
value, chosen
from the list of values 'value1', 'value2', ..., NULL or
the special 
'' error value. In theory, an ENUM column can have a
maximum of 65,535 distinct
values; in practice, the real maximum depends on many
factors. ENUM values are represented internally as integers.
 
Trailing spaces are automatically stripped from ENUM values
on table creation.
 
ENUMs require relatively little storage space compared to
strings, either one or two bytes depending on the number of
enumeration values.
 
NULL and empty values
 
An ENUM can also contain NULL and empty values. If the ENUM
column is declared to permit NULL values, NULL becomes a
valid value, as well as the default value (see below). If
strict SQL Mode is not enabled, and an invalid value is
inserted into an ENUM, a special empty string, with an index
value of zero (see Numeric index, below), is inserted, with
a warning. This may be confusing, because the empty string
is also a possible value, and the only difference if that in
this case its index is not 0. Inserting will fail with an
error if strict mode is active.
 
If a DEFAULT clause is missing, the default value will be:
NULL is the column is nullable;
otherwise, the first value in the enumaration.
 
Numeric index
 
ENUM values are indexed numerically in the order they are
defined, and sorting will be performed in this numeric
order. We suggest not using ENUM to store numerals, as there
is little to no storage space benefit, and it is easy to
confuse the enum integer with the enum numeral value by
leaving out the quotes.
 
An ENUM defined as ENUM('apple','orange','pear') would
have the following index values:
 
Index | Value | 
 
NULL | NULL | 
 
0 | '' | 
 
1 | 'apple' | 
 
2 | 'orange' | 
 
3 | 'pear' | 
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE fruits (
 id INT NOT NULL auto_increment PRIMARY KEY,
 fruit ENUM('apple','orange','pear'),
 bushels INT);
 
DESCRIBE fruits;
 
+---------+-------------------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+---------+-------------------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id | int(11) | NO | PRI | NULL | auto_increment |
| fruit | enum('apple','orange','pear') | YES | | NULL
| |
| bushels | int(11) | YES | | NULL | |
+---------+-------------------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
 
INSERT INTO fruits
 (fruit,bushels) VALUES
 ('pear',20),
 ('apple',100),
 ('orange',25);
 
INSERT INTO fruits
 (fruit,bushels) VALUES
 ('avocado',10);
ERROR 1265 (01000): Data truncated for column 'fruit' at
row 1
 
SELECT * FROM fruits;
 
+----+--------+---------+
| id | fruit | bushels |
+----+--------+---------+
| 1 | pear | 20 |
| 2 | apple | 100 |
| 3 | orange | 25 |
+----+--------+---------+
 
Selecting by numeric index:
 
SELECT * FROM fruits WHERE fruit=2;
 
+----+--------+---------+
| id | fruit | bushels |
+----+--------+---------+
| 3 | orange | 25 |
+----+--------+---------+
 
Sorting is according to the index value:
 
CREATE TABLE enums (a ENUM('2','1'));
 
INSERT INTO enums VALUES ('1'),('2');
 
SELECT * FROM enums ORDER BY a ASC;
 
+------+
| a |
+------+
| 2 |
| 1 |
+------+
 
It's easy to get confused between returning the enum
integer with the stored value, so we don't suggest using
ENUM to store numerals. The first example returns the 1st
indexed field ('2' has an index value of 1, as it's
defined first), while the second example returns the string
value '1'.
 
SELECT * FROM enums WHERE a=1;
 
+------+
| a |
+------+
| 2 |
+------+
 
SELECT * FROM enums WHERE a='1';
 
+------+

DOUBLE[(M,D)] [SIGNED | UNSIGNED | ZEROFILL]
DOUBLE PRECISION[(M,D)] [SIGNED | UNSIGNED | ZEROFILL]
REAL[(M,D)] [SIGNED | UNSIGNED | ZEROFILL]
 
Description
----------- 
A normal-size (double-precision) floating-point number (see
FLOAT for a single-precision floating-point number).
 
Allowable values are:
-1.7976931348623157E+308 to -2.2250738585072014E-308
0
2.2250738585072014E-308 to 1.7976931348623157E+308
 
These are the theoretical limits, based on the IEEE
standard. The actual range
might be slightly smaller depending on your hardware or
operating system.
 
M is the total number of digits and D is the number of
digits
following the decimal point. If M and D are omitted, values
are stored
to the limits allowed by the hardware. A double-precision
floating-point number is accurate to approximately 15
decimal places.
 
UNSIGNED, if specified, disallows negative values.
 
ZEROFILL, if specified, pads the number with zeros, up to
the total number
of digits specified by M.
 
REAL and DOUBLE PRECISION are synonyms, unless the
REAL_AS_FLOAT SQL mode is enabled, in which case REAL is a
synonym for FLOAT rather than DOUBLE.

floating-point numbers.

1.175494351E-38 to 3.402823466E+38. 
 
These are the theoretical limits, based on the IEEE 
standard. The actual range might be slightly smaller
depending on your
hardware or operating system.
 
M is the total number of digits and D is the number of
digits
following the decimal point. If M and D are omitted, values
are stored
to the limits allowed by the hardware. A single-precision
floating-point number is accurate to approximately 7 decimal
places.
 
UNSIGNED, if specified, disallows negative values.
 
Using FLOAT might give you some unexpected problems because
all
calculations in MariaDB are done with double precision. See
Floating Point Accuracy.

	1JSON Data TypeThe JSON alias was added in MariaDB 10.2.7. This was done to
make it possible to use JSON columns in statement based
replication from MySQL to MariaDB and to make it possible
for MariaDB to read mysqldumps from MySQL.
 
JSON is an alias for LONGTEXT introduced for compatibility
reasons with MySQL's JSON data type. MariaDB implements
this as a LONGTEXT rather, as the JSON data type contradicts
the SQL standard, and MariaDB's benchmarks indicate that
performance is at least equivalent.
 
In order to ensure that a a valid json document is inserted,
the JSON_VALID function can be used as a CHECK constraint.
This constraint is automatically included for types using
the JSON alias from MariaDB 10.4.3.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE t (j JSON);
 
DESC t;
+-------+----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+-------+----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| j | longtext | YES | | NULL | |
+-------+----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
 
With validation:
 
CREATE TABLE t2 (
 j JSON 
 CHECK (JSON_VALID(j))
);
 
INSERT INTO t2 VALUES ('invalid');
ERROR 4025 (23000): CONSTRAINT `j` failed for `test`.`t2`
 
INSERT INTO t2 VALUES ('{"id": 1, "name":
"Monty"}');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec)
 
Replicating JSON Data Between MySQL and MariaDB
 
The JSON type in MySQL stores the JSON object in a compact
form, not as LONGTEXT as in MariaDB.
This means that row based replication will not work for JSON
types from MySQL to MariaDB.
 
There are a a few different ways to solve this:
Use statement based replication.
Change the JSON column to type TEXT in MySQL
 
Converting a MySQL TABLE with JSON Fields to MariaDB
 
MariaDB can't directly access MySQL JSON format.
 
There is a a few different ways to move the table to
MariaDB:
Change the JSON column to type TEXT in MySQL. After this
MariaDB can directly use the table without any need for a
dump and restore.
Use mysqldump to copy the table.
 
Differences Between MySQL JSON Strings and MariaDB JSON
Strings
 
In MySQL, JSON is an object and is compared according to
json values. In MariaDB JSON strings are normal strings and
compared as strings. One exception is when using
JSON_EXTRACT() in which case strings are unescaped before
comparison.

.1Geometry TypesDescription
----------- 
MariaDB provides a standard way of creating spatial columns
for geometry types,
for example, with CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE.
Currently, spatial columns are supported for MyISAM, InnoDB,
NDB, and ARCHIVE
tables. See also SPATIAL INDEX.
 
The basic geometry type is GEOMETRY. But the type can be
more specific. The following types are supported:
 
Geometry Types | 
 
POINT | 
 
LINESTRING | 
 
POLYGON | 
 
MULTIPOINT | 
 
MULTILINESTRING | 
 
MULTIPOLYGON | 
 
GEOMETRYCOLLECTION | 
 
GEOMETRY | 
 
Examples
-------- 
Note: For clarity, only one type is listed per table in the
examples below, but a table
row can contain multiple types. For example:
 
CREATE TABLE object (shapeA POLYGON, shapeB LINESTRING);

�+LONGTEXTSyntax
------ 
LONGTEXT [CHARACTER SET charset_name] [COLLATE
collation_name]
 
Description
----------- 
A TEXT column with a maximum length of 4,294,967,295 or 4GB
(232 - 1) characters. The effective maximum length is less
if the value contains multi-byte characters. The effective
maximum length of LONGTEXT columns also depends on the
configured maximum packet size in the client/server protocol
and available memory. Each LONGTEXT value is stored using a
four-byte length prefix that indicates the number of bytes
in the value.
 
From MariaDB 10.2.7, JSON is an alias for LONGTEXT. See JSON
Data Type for details.
 
Oracle Mode
 
In Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3, CLOB is a synonym for
LONGTEXT.

�=Numeric Data Type OverviewThere are a number of numeric data types:
TINYINT
BOOLEAN - Synonym for TINYINT(1)
SMALLINT
MEDIUMINT
INT, INTEGER
BIGINT
DECIMAL, DEC, NUMERIC, FIXED
FLOAT
DOUBLE, DOUBLE PRECISION, REAL
BIT
 
See the specific articles for detailed information on each.
 
SIGNED, UNSIGNED and ZEROFILL
 
Most numeric types can be defined as SIGNED, UNSIGNED or
ZEROFILL, for example:
 
TINYINT[(M)] [SIGNED | UNSIGNED | ZEROFILL]
 
If SIGNED, or no attribute, is specified, a portion of the
numeric type will be reserved for the sign (plus or minus).
For example, a TINYINT SIGNED can range from -128 to 127. 
 
If UNSIGNED is specified, no portion of the numeric type is
reserved for the sign, so for integer types range can be
larger. For example, a TINYINT UNSIGNED can range from 0 to
255. Floating point and fixed-point types also can be
UNSIGNED, but this only prevents negative values from being
stored and doesn't alter the range. 
 
If ZEROFILL is specified, the column will be set to UNSIGNED
and the spaces used by default to pad the field are replaced
with zeros. ZEROFILL is ignored in expressions or as part of
a UNION. ZEROFILL is a non-standard MySQL and MariaDB
enhancement.
 
Note that although the preferred syntax indicates that the
attributes are exclusive, more than one attribute can be
specified.
 
Until MariaDB 10.2.7 (MDEV-8659), any combination of the
attributes could be used in any order, with duplicates. In
this case:
the presence of ZEROFILL makes the column UNSIGNED ZEROFILL.
the presence of UNSIGNED makes the column UNSIGNED.
 
From MariaDB 10.2.8, only the following combinations are
supported:
SIGNED
UNSIGNED
ZEROFILL
UNSIGNED ZEROFILL
ZEROFILL UNSIGNED
 
The latter two should be replaced with simply ZEROFILL, but
are still accepted by the parser.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE zf (
 i1 TINYINT SIGNED,
 i2 TINYINT UNSIGNED,
 i3 TINYINT ZEROFILL
);
 
INSERT INTO zf VALUES (2,2,2);
 
SELECT * FROM zf;
 
+------+------+------+
| i1 | i2 | i3 |
+------+------+------+
| 2 | 2 | 002 |
+------+------+------+
 
Range
 
When attempting to add a value that is out of the valid
range for the numeric type, MariaDB will react depending on
the strict SQL_MODE setting.
 
If strict_mode has been set (the default from MariaDB
10.2.4), MariaDB will return an error.
 
If strict_mode has not been set (the default until MariaDB
10.2.3), MariaDB will adjust the number to fit in the field,
returning a warning.
 
Examples
-------- 
With strict_mode set:
 
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'sql_mode';
 
+---------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+---------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| sql_mode |
STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION
|
+---------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
CREATE TABLE ranges (i1 TINYINT, i2 SMALLINT, i3 TINYINT
UNSIGNED);
 
INSERT INTO ranges VALUES (257,257,257);
ERROR 1264 (22003): Out of range value for column 'i1' at
row 1
 
SELECT * FROM ranges;

Description
----------- 
A small integer. The signed range is -32768 to 32767. The

Description
----------- 
IsEmpty is a function defined by the OpenGIS specification,
but is not fully implemented by MariaDB or MySQL. 
 
Since MariaDB and MySQL do not support GIS EMPTY values such

the argument is NULL.
 
ST_IsEmpty() and IsEmpty() are synonyms.

2String LiteralsStrings are sequences of characters and are enclosed with
quotes.
 
The syntax is:
 
[_charset_name]'string' [COLLATE collation_name]
 
For example:
 
'The MariaDB Foundation'
_utf8 'Foundation' COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci;
 
Strings can either be enclosed in single quotes or in double
quotes (the same character must be used to both open and
close the string).
 
The ANSI SQL-standard does not permit double quotes for
enclosing strings, and although MariaDB does by default, if
the MariaDB server has enabled the ANSI_QUOTES_SQL SQL_MODE,
double quotes will be treated as being used for identifiers
instead of strings.
 
Strings that are next to each other are automatically
concatenated. For example:
 
'The ' 'MariaDB ' 'Foundation'
 
and
 
'The MariaDB Foundation'
 
are equivalent.
 
The \ (backslash character) is used to escape characters.
For example:
 
'MariaDB's new features'
 
is not a valid string because of the single quote in the
middle of the string, which is treated as if it closes the
string, but is actually meant as part of the string, an
apostrophe. The backslash character helps in situations like
this:
 
'MariaDB\'s new features'
 
is now a valid string, and if displayed, will appear without
the backslash.
 
SELECT 'MariaDB\'s new features';
+------------------------+
| MariaDB's new features |
+------------------------+
| MariaDB's new features |
+------------------------+
 
Another way to escape the quoting character is repeating it
twice:
 
SELECT 'I''m here', """Double""";
+----------+----------+
| I'm here | "Double" |
+----------+----------+
| I'm here | "Double" |
+----------+----------+
 
Escape sequences
 
There are other escape sequences also. Here is a full list:
 
Escape sequence | Character | 
 
\0 | ASCII NUL (0x00). | 
 
\' | Single quote (“'”). | 
 
\" | Double quote (“"”). | 
 
\b | Backspace. | 
 
\n | Newline, or linefeed,. | 
 
\r | Carriage return. | 
 
\t | Tab. | 
 
\Z | ASCII 26 (Control+Z). See note following the table. | 
 
\\ | Backslash (“\”). | 
 
\% | “%” character. See note following the table. | 
 
\_ | A “_” character. See note following the table. | 
 
Escaping the % and _ characters can be necessary when using
the LIKE operator, which treats them as special characters.
 
The ASCII 26 character (\Z) needs to be escaped when
included in a batch file which needs to be executed in
Windows. The reason is that ASCII 26, in Windows, is the end
of file (EOF).
 
Backslash (\), if not used as an escape character, must
always be escaped. When followed by a character that is not
in the above table, backslashes will simply be ignored.

'TEXTSyntax
------ 
TEXT[(M)] [CHARACTER SET charset_name] [COLLATE
collation_name]
 
Description
----------- 
A TEXT column with a maximum length of 65,535 (216 - 1)
characters. The effective maximum length is less if the
value contains
multi-byte characters. Each TEXT value is stored using a
two-byte length
prefix that indicates the number of bytes in the value. If
you need a bigger storage, consider using MEDIUMTEXT
instead.
 
An optional length M can be given for this type. If this is
done, MariaDB
creates the column as the smallest TEXT type large enough to
hold values
M characters long.
 
Before MariaDB 10.2, all MariaDB collations were of type
PADSPACE, meaning that TEXT (as well as VARCHAR and CHAR
values) are compared without regard for trailing spaces.
This does not apply to the LIKE pattern-matching operator,
which takes into account trailing spaces.
 
Before MariaDB 10.2.1, BLOB and TEXT columns could not be
assigned a DEFAULT value. This restriction was lifted in
MariaDB 10.2.1.
 
Examples
-------- 
Trailing spaces:
 
CREATE TABLE strtest (d TEXT(10));
INSERT INTO strtest VALUES('Maria ');
 
SELECT d='Maria',d='Maria ' FROM strtest;
+-----------+--------------+
| d='Maria' | d='Maria ' |
+-----------+--------------+
| 1 | 1 |
+-----------+--------------+
 
SELECT d LIKE 'Maria',d LIKE 'Maria ' FROM strtest;
+----------------+-------------------+
| d LIKE 'Maria' | d LIKE 'Maria ' |
+----------------+-------------------+
| 0 | 1 |
+----------------+-------------------+
 
Difference between VARCHAR and TEXT
 
VARCHAR columns can be fully indexed. TEXT columns can only
be indexed over a specified length.
Using TEXT or BLOB in a SELECT query that uses temporary
tables for storing intermediate results will force the
temporary table to be disk based (using the Aria storage
engine instead of the memory storage engine, which is a bit
slower. This is not that bad as the Aria storage engine
caches the rows in memory. To get the benefit of this, one
should ensure that the aria_pagecache_buffer_size variable
is big enough to hold most of the row and index data for
temporary tables.
 
For Storage Engine Developers
 
Internally the full length of the VARCHAR column is
allocated inside each TABLE objects record[] structure. As
there are three such buffers, each open table will allocate
3 times max-length-to-store-varchar bytes of memory.
TEXT and BLOB columns are stored with a pointer (4 or 8
bytes) + a 1-4 bytes length. The TEXT data is only stored
once. This means that internally TEXT uses less memory for
each open table but instead has the additional overhead that
each TEXT object needs to be allocated and freed for each
row access (with some caching in between).

'TIMESyntax
------ 
TIME [()]
 
Description
----------- 
A time. The range is '-838:59:59.999999' to
'838:59:59.999999'. Microsecond precision can be from 0-6;
if not specified 0 is used. Microseconds have been available
since MariaDB 5.3. 
 
MariaDB displays TIME values in 'HH:MM:SS.ssssss' format,
but allows assignment of times in looser formats, including
'D HH:MM:SS', 'HH:MM:SS', 'HH:MM', 'D HH:MM', 'D
HH', 'SS', or 'HHMMSS', as well as permitting dropping
of any leading zeros when a delimiter is provided, for
example '3:9:10'. For details, see date and time literals.
 
MariaDB 10.1.2 introduced the --mysql56-temporal-format
option, on by default, which allows MariaDB to store TIMEs
using the same low-level format MySQL 5.6 uses.
 
Internal Format
 
In MariaDB 10.1.2 a new temporal format was introduced from
MySQL 5.6 that alters how the TIME, DATETIME and TIMESTAMP
columns operate at lower levels. These changes allow these
temporal data types to have fractional parts and negative
values. You can disable this feature using the
mysql56_temporal_format system variable.
 
Tables that include TIMESTAMP values that were created on an
older version of MariaDB or that were created while the
mysql56_temporal_format system variable was disabled
continue to store data using the older data type format.
 
In order to update table columns from the older format to
the newer format, execute an ALTER TABLE... MODIFY COLUMN
statement that changes the column to the *same* data type.
This change may be needed if you want to export the table's
tablespace and import it onto a server that has
mysql56_temporal_format=ON set (see MDEV-15225).
 
For instance, if you have a TIME column in your table: 
 
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'mysql56_temporal_format';
 
+-------------------------+-------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+-------------------------+-------+
| mysql56_temporal_format | ON |
+-------------------------+-------+
 
ALTER TABLE example_table MODIFY ts_col TIME;
 
When MariaDB executes the ALTER TABLE statement, it converts
the data from the older temporal format to the newer one. 
 
In the event that you have several tables and columns using
temporal data types that you want to switch over to the new
format, make sure the system variable is enabled, then
perform a dump and restore using mysqldump. The columns
using relevant temporal data types are restored using the
new temporal format.
 
Examples
-------- 
INSERT INTO time VALUES ('90:00:00'), ('800:00:00'),
(800), (22), (151413), ('9:6:3'), ('12 09');

,VARBINARYSyntax
------ 
VARBINARY(M)
 
Description
----------- 
The VARBINARY type is similar to the VARCHAR type, but
stores binary byte strings rather than non-binary character
strings. M represents the maximum column length in bytes. 
 
It contains no character set, and comparison and sorting are
based on the numeric value of the bytes.
 
If the maximum length is exceeded, and SQL strict mode is
not enabled , the extra characters will be dropped with a
warning. If strict mode is enabled, an error will occur.
 
Unlike BINARY values, VARBINARYs are not right-padded when
inserting.
 
Oracle Mode
 
In Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3, RAW is a synonym for
VARBINARY.
 
Examples
-------- 
Inserting too many characters, first with strict mode off,
then with it on:
 
CREATE TABLE varbins (a VARBINARY(10));
 
INSERT INTO varbins VALUES('12345678901');
Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.04 sec)
 
SELECT * FROM varbins;
 
+------------+
| a |
+------------+
| 1234567890 |
+------------+
 
SET sql_mode='STRICT_ALL_TABLES';
 
INSERT INTO varbins VALUES('12345678901');
ERROR 1406 (22001): Data too long for column 'a' at row 1
 
Sorting is performed with the byte value:
 
TRUNCATE varbins;
 
INSERT INTO varbins VALUES('A'),('B'),('a'),('b');
 
SELECT * FROM varbins ORDER BY a;
 
+------+
| a |
+------+
| A |
| B |
| a |
| b |
+------+
 
Using CAST to sort as a CHAR instead:
 
SELECT * FROM varbins ORDER BY CAST(a AS CHAR);
+------+
| a |
+------+
| a |
| A |
| b |
| B |

�*VARCHARSyntax
------ 
[NATIONAL] VARCHAR(M) [CHARACTER SET charset_name] [COLLATE
collation_name]
 
Description
----------- 
A variable-length string. M represents the maximum column
length in
characters. The range of M is 0 to 65,532. The effective
maximum
length of a VARCHAR is subject to the maximum row size and
the character set used. For
example, utf8 characters can require up to three bytes per
character,
so a VARCHAR column that uses the utf8 character set can be
declared
to be a maximum of 21,844 characters.
 
MariaDB stores VARCHAR values as a one-byte or two-byte
length prefix
plus data. The length prefix indicates the number of bytes
in the
value. A VARCHAR column uses one length byte if values
require no more
than 255 bytes, two length bytes if values may require more
than 255
bytes.
 
Note: MariaDB 5.1 and later follow the standard SQL
specification, 
and do not remove trailing spaces from VARCHAR values.
 
VARCHAR(0) columns can contain 2 values: an empty string or
NULL. Such columns cannot be part of an index. The CONNECT
storage engine does not support VARCHAR(0).
 
VARCHAR is shorthand for CHARACTER VARYING. NATIONAL VARCHAR
is the
standard SQL way to define that a VARCHAR column should use
some
predefined character set. MariaDB uses utf8 as this
predefined character set, as does MySQL 4.1 and up.
NVARCHAR is shorthand for NATIONAL VARCHAR.
 
Before MariaDB 10.2, all MariaDB collations were of type
PADSPACE, meaning that VARCHAR (as well as CHAR and TEXT
values) are compared without regard for trailing spaces.
This does not apply to the LIKE pattern-matching operator,
which takes into account trailing spaces. From MariaDB 10.2,
a number of NO PAD collations are available.
 
If a unique index consists of a column where trailing pad
characters are stripped or ignored, inserts into that column
where values differ only by the number of trailing pad
characters will result in a duplicate-key error.
 
Examples
-------- 
The following are equivalent:
 
VARCHAR(30) CHARACTER SET utf8
NATIONAL VARCHAR(30)
NVARCHAR(30)
NCHAR VARCHAR(30)
NATIONAL CHARACTER VARYING(30)
NATIONAL CHAR VARYING(30)
 
Trailing spaces:
 
CREATE TABLE strtest (v VARCHAR(10));
INSERT INTO strtest VALUES('Maria ');
 
SELECT v='Maria',v='Maria ' FROM strtest;
+-----------+--------------+
| v='Maria' | v='Maria ' |
+-----------+--------------+
| 1 | 1 |
+-----------+--------------+
 
SELECT v LIKE 'Maria',v LIKE 'Maria ' FROM strtest;
+----------------+-------------------+
| v LIKE 'Maria' | v LIKE 'Maria ' |
+----------------+-------------------+
| 0 | 1 |
+----------------+-------------------+
 
Truncation
 
Depending on whether or not strict sql mode is set, you will
either get a warning or an error if you try to insert a
string that is too long into a VARCHAR column. If the extra
characters are spaces, the spaces that can't fit will be
removed and you will always get a warning, regardless of the
sql mode setting.
 
Difference Between VARCHAR and TEXT
 
VARCHAR columns can be fully indexed. TEXT columns can only
be indexed over a specified length.
Using TEXT or BLOB in a SELECT query that uses temporary
tables for storing intermediate results will force the
temporary table to be disk based (using the Aria storage
engine instead of the memory storage engine, which is a bit
slower. This is not that bad as the Aria storage engine
caches the rows in memory. To get the benefit of this, one
should ensure that the aria_pagecache_buffer_size variable
is big enough to hold most of the row and index data for
temporary tables.
 
Oracle Mode
 
In Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3, VARCHAR2 is a synonym.
 
For Storage Engine Developers
 
Internally the full length of the VARCHAR column is
allocated inside each TABLE objects record[] structure. As
there are three such buffers, each open table will allocate
3 times max-length-to-store-varchar bytes of memory.
TEXT and BLOB columns are stored with a pointer (4 or 8
bytes) + a 1-4 bytes length. The TEXT data is only stored
once. This means that internally TEXT uses less memory for
each open table but instead has the additional overhead that
each TEXT object needs to be allocated and freed for each
row access (with some caching in between).

�	1YEAR Data TypeSyntax
------ 
YEAR[(4)]
 
Description
----------- 
A year in two-digit or four-digit format. The default is
four-digit format. Note that the two-digit format has been
deprecated since 5.5.27. 
 
In four-digit format, the allowable values are 1901 to 2155,
and 0000. In two-digit format, the allowable values are 70
to 69,
representing years from 1970 to 2069. MariaDB displays YEAR
values in
YYYY format, but allows you to assign values to YEAR columns
using
either strings or numbers.
 
Inserting numeric zero has a different result for YEAR(4)
and YEAR(2). For YEAR(2), the value 00 reflects the year
2000. For YEAR(4), the value 0000 reflects the year zero.
This only applies to numeric zero. String zero always
reflects the year 2000.

,BEGIN ENDSyntax
------ 
[begin_label:] BEGIN [NOT ATOMIC]
 [statement_list]
END [end_label]
 
NOT ATOMIC is required when used outside of a stored
procedure. Inside stored procedures or within an anonymous
block, BEGIN alone starts a new anonymous block.
 
Description
----------- 
BEGIN ... END syntax is used for writing compound
statements. A compound statement can contain multiple
statements, enclosed by the BEGIN and END keywords.
statement_list represents a list of one or more statements,
each
terminated by a semicolon (i.e., ;) statement delimiter.
statement_list is
optional, which means that the empty compound statement
(BEGIN END) is
legal.
 
Note that END will perform a commit. If you are running in
autocommit mode, every statement will be committed
separately. If you are not running in autocommit mode, you
must execute a COMMIT or ROLLBACK after END to get the
database up to date.
 
Use of multiple statements requires that a client is able to
send statement strings containing the ; statement delimiter.
This is handled in the mysql command-line client with the
DELIMITER command.
Changing the ; end-of-statement delimiter (for example, to
//) allows ; to be used in a program body.
 
A compound statement within a stored program can be
labeled. end_label cannot be given unless begin_label also
is present. If both are present, they must be the same.
 
BEGIN ... END constructs can be nested. Each block can
define its own variables, a CONDITION, a HANDLER and a
CURSOR, which don't exist in the outer blocks. The most
local declarations override the outer objects which use the
same name (see example below).
 
The declarations order is the following:
DECLARE local variables;
DECLARE CONDITIONs;
DECLARE CURSORs;
DECLARE HANDLERs;
 
Note that DECLARE HANDLER contains another BEGIN ... END
construct.
 
Here is an example of a very simple, anonymous block:
 
BEGIN NOT ATOMIC
SET @a=1;
 
CREATE TABLE test.t1(a INT);
END|
 
Below is an example of nested blocks in a stored procedure:
 
CREATE PROCEDURE t( )
BEGIN
 DECLARE x TINYINT UNSIGNED DEFAULT 1;
 
 BEGIN
 DECLARE x CHAR(2) DEFAULT '02';
 
 DECLARE y TINYINT UNSIGNED DEFAULT 10;
 
 SELECT x, y;
 
 END;
 
 SELECT x;
 
END;
 
In this example, a TINYINT variable, x is declared in the
outter block. But in the inner block x is re-declared as a
CHAR and an y variable is declared. The inner SELECT shows
the "new" value of x, and the value of y. But when x is
selected in the outer block, the "old" value is returned.
The final SELECT doesn't try to read y, because it doesn't
exist in that context.

�1CASE StatementSyntax
------ 
CASE case_value
 WHEN when_value THEN statement_list
 [WHEN when_value THEN statement_list] ...
 [ELSE statement_list]
END CASE
 
Or:
 
CASE
 WHEN search_condition THEN statement_list
 [WHEN search_condition THEN statement_list] ...
 [ELSE statement_list] 
END CASE
 
Description
----------- 
The CASE statement for stored programs implements a complex
conditional
construct. If a search_condition evaluates to true, the
corresponding SQL
statement list is executed. If no search condition matches,
the statement list
in the ELSE clause is executed. Each statement_list consists
of one or
more statements.
 
If no when_value or search_condition matches the value
tested and the CASE
statement contains no ELSE clause, a Case not found for CASE
statement
error results.
 
Each statement_list consists of one or more statements; an
empty
statement_list is not allowed. To handle situations where no
value is
matched by any WHEN clause, use an ELSE containing an
empty BEGIN ... END block, as shown in this example:
 
DELIMITER |
CREATE PROCEDURE p()
BEGIN
 DECLARE v INT DEFAULT 1;
 
 CASE v
 WHEN 2 THEN SELECT v;
 
 WHEN 3 THEN SELECT 0;
 
 ELSE BEGIN END;
 
 END CASE;
 
END;
 
|
 
The indentation used here in the ELSE clause is for purposes
of clarity only,
and is not otherwise significant. See Delimiters in the
mysql client for more on the use of the delimiter command.
 
Note: The syntax of the CASE statement used inside stored
programs
differs slightly from that of the SQL CASE expression
described in
CASE OPERATOR.
The CASE statement cannot have an ELSE NULL clause, and it
is
terminated with END CASE instead of END.

f4DECLARE CONDITIONSyntax
------ 
DECLARE condition_name CONDITION FOR condition_value
 
condition_value:
 SQLSTATE [VALUE] sqlstate_value
 | mysql_error_code
 
Description
----------- 
The DECLARE ... CONDITION statement defines a named error
condition.
It specifies a condition that needs specific handling and
associates a
name with that condition. Later, the name can be used in a
DECLARE ... HANDLER, SIGNAL or RESIGNAL statement (as long
as the statement is located in the same BEGIN ... END
block).
 
Conditions must be declared after local variables, but
before CURSORs and HANDLERs.
 
A condition_value for DECLARE ... CONDITION can be an
SQLSTATE value (a
5-character string literal) or a MySQL error code (a
number). You should not
use SQLSTATE value '00000' or MySQL error code 0, because
those indicate sucess
rather than an error condition. If you try, or if you
specify an invalid SQLSTATE value, an error like this is
produced:
 
ERROR 1407 (42000): Bad SQLSTATE: '00000'
 
For a list of SQLSTATE values and MariaDB error
codes, see MariaDB Error Codes.

�2DECLARE HANDLERSyntax
------ 
DECLARE handler_type HANDLER
 FOR condition_value [, condition_value] ...
 statement
 
handler_type:
 CONTINUE
 | EXIT 
 | UNDO
 
condition_value:
 SQLSTATE [VALUE] sqlstate_value
 | condition_name
 | SQLWARNING
 | NOT FOUND
 | SQLEXCEPTION
 | mariadb_error_code
 
Description
----------- 
The DECLARE ... HANDLER statement specifies handlers that
each may
deal with one or more conditions. If one of these conditions
occurs,
the specified statement is executed. statement can be a
simple
statement (for example, SET var_name = value), or it can be
a compound
statement written using BEGIN and END.
 
Handlers must be declared after local variables, a CONDITION
and a CURSOR.
 
For a CONTINUE handler, execution of the current program
continues
after execution of the handler statement. For an EXIT
handler,
execution terminates for the BEGIN ... END compound
statement in which
the handler is declared. (This is true even if the condition
occurs in
an inner block.) The UNDO handler type statement is not
supported.
 
If a condition occurs for which no handler has been
declared, the
default action is EXIT.
 
A condition_value for DECLARE ... HANDLER can be any of the
following
values:
An SQLSTATE value (a 5-character string literal) or a
MariaDB error
code (a number). You should not use SQLSTATE value '00000'
or MariaDB
error code 0, because those indicate sucess rather than an
error
condition. For a list of SQLSTATE values and MariaDB error
codes, see
MariaDB Error Codes.
A condition name previously specified with DECLARE ...
CONDITION. It must be in the same stored program. See
DECLARE CONDITION.
SQLWARNING is shorthand for the class of SQLSTATE values
that begin
with '01'.
NOT FOUND is shorthand for the class of SQLSTATE values that
begin
with '02'. This is relevant only the context of cursors
and is used to
control what happens when a cursor reaches the end of a data
set. If
no more rows are available, a No Data condition occurs with
SQLSTATE
value 02000. To detect this condition, you can set up a
handler for it
(or for a NOT FOUND condition). An example is shown in
Cursor Overview. This condition also occurs for SELECT ...
INTO var_list statements that retrieve no
rows.
SQLEXCEPTION is shorthand for the class of SQLSTATE values
that do
not begin with '00', '01', or '02'.
 
When an error raises, in some cases it could be handled by
multiple HANDLERs. For example, there may be an handler for
1050 error, a separate handler for the 42S01 SQLSTATE, and
another separate handler for the SQLEXCEPTION class: in
theory all occurrences of HANDLER may catch the 1050 error,
but MariaDB chooses the HANDLER with the highest precedence.
Here are the precedence rules:
Handlers which refer to an error code have the highest
precedence.
Handlers which refer to a SQLSTATE come next.
Handlers which refer to an error class have the lowest
precedence.
 
In some cases, a statement could produce multiple errors. If
this happens, in some cases multiple handlers could have the
highest precedence. In such cases, the choice of the handler
is indeterminate.
 
Note that if an error occurs within a CONTINUE HANDLER
block, it can be handled by another HANDLER. However, a
HANDLER which is already in the stack (that is, it has been
called to handle an error and its execution didn't finish
yet) cannot handle new errors—this prevents endless loops.
For example, suppose that a stored procedure contains a
CONTINUE HANDLER for SQLWARNING and another CONTINUE HANDLER
for NOT FOUND. At some point, a NOT FOUND error occurs, and
the execution enters the NOT FOUND HANDLER. But within that
handler, a warning occurs, and the execution enters the
SQLWARNING HANDLER. If another NOT FOUND error occurs, it
cannot be handled again by the NOT FOUND HANDLER, because
its execution is not finished.
 
When a DECLARE HANDLER block can handle more than one error
condition, it may be useful to know which errors occurred.
To do so, you can use the GET DIAGNOSTICS statement.
 
An error that is handled by a DECLARE HANDLER construct can
be issued again using the RESIGNAL statement.
 
Below is an example using DECLARE HANDLER:
 
CREATE TABLE test.t (s1 INT, PRIMARY KEY (s1));
 
DELIMITER //
 
CREATE PROCEDURE handlerdemo ( )
 BEGIN
 DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR SQLSTATE '23000' SET @x2 =
1;
 
 SET @x = 1;
 
 INSERT INTO test.t VALUES (1);
 SET @x = 2;
 
 INSERT INTO test.t VALUES (1);
 SET @x = 3;
 
 END;
 
 //
 
DELIMITER ;
 
CALL handlerdemo( );
 
SELECT @x;
 
+------+
| @x |
+------+
| 3 |

U3DECLARE VariableSyntax
------ 
DECLARE var_name [, var_name] ... [[ROW] TYPE OF]] type
[DEFAULT value]
 
Description
----------- 
This statement is used to declare local variables within
stored programs. To
provide a default value for the variable, include a DEFAULT
clause. The
value can be specified as an expression (even subqueries are
permitted); it need not be a constant. If the
DEFAULT clause is missing, the initial value is NULL.
 
Local variables are treated like stored routine parameters
with respect to data
type and overflow checking. See CREATE PROCEDURE.
 
Local variables must be declared before CONDITIONs, CURSORs
and HANDLERs.
 
Local variable names are not case sensitive.
 
The scope of a local variable is within the BEGIN ... END
block where it is
declared. The variable can be referred to in blocks nested
within the declaring
block, except those blocks that declare a variable with the
same name.
 
TYPE OF / ROW TYPE OF
 
TYPE OF and ROW TYPE OF anchored data types for stored
routines were introduced in MariaDB 10.3.
 
Anchored data types allow a data type to be defined based on
another object, such as a table row, rather than
specifically set in the declaration. If the anchor object
changes, so will the anchored data type. This can lead to
routines being easier to maintain, so that if the data type
in the table is changed, it will automatically be changed in
the routine as well.
 
Variables declared with ROW TYPE OF will have the same
features as implicit ROW variables. It is not possible to
use ROW TYPE OF variables in a LIMIT clause.
 
The real data type of TYPE OF and ROW TYPE OF table_name
will become known at the very beginning of the stored
routine call. ALTER TABLE or DROP TABLE statements performed
inside the current routine on the tables that appear in
anchors won't affect the data type of the anchored
variables, even if the variable is declared after an ALTER
TABLE or DROP TABLE statement.
 
The real data type of a ROW TYPE OF cursor_name variable
will become known when execution enters into the block where
the variable is declared. Data type instantiation will
happen only once. In a cursor ROW TYPE OF variable that is
declared inside a loop, its data type will become known on
the very first iteration and won't change on further loop
iterations.
 
The tables referenced in TYPE OF and ROW TYPE OF
declarations will be checked for existence at the beginning
of the stored routine call. CREATE PROCEDURE or CREATE
FUNCTION will not check the referenced tables for existence.
 
Examples
-------- 
TYPE OF and ROW TYPE OF from MariaDB 10.3:
 
DECLARE tmp TYPE OF t1.a;
 -- Get the data type from the column {{a}} in the table
{{t1}}
 
DECLARE rec1 ROW TYPE OF t1;
 -- Get the row data type from the table {{t1}}
 
DECLARE rec2 ROW TYPE OF cur1;
 -- Get the row data type from the cursor {{cur1}}

&FORFOR loops were introduced in MariaDB 10.3.
 
Syntax
------ 
Integer range FOR loop:
 
[begin_label:]
FOR var_name IN [ REVERSE ] lower_bound .. upper_bound
DO statement_list
END FOR [ end_label ]
 
Explicit cursor FOR loop

END LOOP [ end_label ]
 
Implicit cursor FOR loop
 
[begin_label:]
FOR record_name IN ( select_statement )
DO statement_list
END FOR [ end_label ]
 
Description
----------- 
FOR loops allow code to be executed a fixed number of times.
 
In an integer range FOR loop, MariaDB will compare the lower
bound and upper bound values, and assign the lower bound
value to a counter. If REVERSE is not specified, and the
upper bound value is greater than or equal to the counter,
the counter will be incremented and the statement will
continue, after which the loop is entered again. If the
upper bound value is greater than the counter, the loop will
be exited.
 
If REVERSE is specified, the counter is decremented, and the
upper bound value needs to be less than or equal for the
loop to continue.

)LabelsSyntax
------ 
label: 
[label]
 
Labels are MariaDB identifiers which can be used to identify
a BEGIN ... END construct or a loop. They have a maximum
length of 16 characters and can be quoted with backticks
(i.e.., `).
 
Labels have a start part and an end part. The start part
must precede the portion of code it refers to, must be
followed by a colon (:) and can be on the same or different
line. The end part is optional and adds nothing, but can
make the code more readable. If used, the end part must
precede the construct's delimiter (;). Constructs
identified by a label can be nested. Each construct can be
identified by only one label.
 
Labels need not be unique in the stored program they belong
to. However, a label for an inner loop cannot be identical
to a label for an outer loop. In this case, the following
error would be produced:
 
ERROR 1309 (42000): Redefining label 
 
LEAVE and ITERATE statements can be used to exit or repeat a
portion of code identified by a label. They must be in the
same Stored Routine, Trigger or Event which contains the
target label.
 
Below is an example using a simple label that is used to
exit a LOOP:
 
CREATE PROCEDURE `test_sp`()
BEGIN
 `my_label`:
 LOOP
 SELECT 'looping';
 
 LEAVE `my_label`;
 
 END LOOP;
 
 SELECT 'out of loop';
 
END;
 
The following label is used to exit a procedure, and has an
end part:
 
CREATE PROCEDURE `test_sp`()
`my_label`:
BEGIN
 IF @var = 1 THEN
 LEAVE `my_label`;
 
 END IF;
 
 DO something();
END `my_label`;

�(LEAVESyntax
------ 
LEAVE label
 
This statement is used to exit the flow control construct
that has the
given label. The label must be in the same stored program,
not in a caller procedure. LEAVE can be used within BEGIN
... END or loop constructs
(LOOP, REPEAT, WHILE). In Stored Procedures, Triggers and
Events, LEAVE can refer to the outmost BEGIN ... END
construct; in that case, the program exits the procedure. In
Stored Functions, RETURN can be used instead.
 
Note that LEAVE cannot be used to exit a DECLARE HANDLER
block.
 
If you try to LEAVE a non-existing label, or if you try to
LEAVE a HANDLER block, the following error will be produced:
 
ERROR 1308 (42000): LEAVE with no matching label: 
 
The following example uses LEAVE to exit the procedure if a
condition is true:
 
CREATE PROCEDURE proc(IN p TINYINT)

------ 
[begin_label:] REPEAT
 statement_list
UNTIL search_condition
END REPEAT [end_label]
 
The statement list within a REPEAT statement is repeated
until the
search_condition is true. Thus, a REPEAT always enters the
loop at
least once. statement_list consists of one or more
statements, each
terminated by a semicolon (i.e., ;) statement delimiter.
 
A REPEAT statement can be labeled. end_label cannot be given
unless
begin_label also is present. If both are present, they must
be the
same.

�+RESIGNALSIGNAL and RESIGNAL were both introduced in MariaDB 5.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
RESIGNAL [error_condition]

 [, error_property] ...]

 | CONSTRAINT_CATALOG
 | CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA
 | CONSTRAINT_NAME
 | CATALOG_NAME
 | SCHEMA_NAME
 | TABLE_NAME
 | COLUMN_NAME
 | CURSOR_NAME
 
Description
----------- 
The syntax of RESIGNAL and its semantics are very similar to
SIGNAL. This statement can only be used within an error
HANDLER. It produces an error, like SIGNAL. RESIGNAL clauses
are the same as SIGNAL, except that they all are optional,
even SQLSTATE. All the properties which are not specified in
RESIGNAL, will be identical to the properties of the error
that was received by the error HANDLER. For a description of
the clauses, see diagnostics area.
 
Note that RESIGNAL does not empty the diagnostics area: it
just appends another error condition.
 
RESIGNAL, without any clauses, produces an error which is
identical to the error that was received by HANDLER.
 
If used out of a HANDLER construct, RESIGNAL produces the
following error:
 
ERROR 1645 (0K000): RESIGNAL when handler not active
 
In MariaDB 5.5, if a HANDLER contained a CALL to another
procedure, that procedure could use RESIGNAL. Since MariaDB
10.0, trying to do this raises the above error.
 
For a list of SQLSTATE values and MariaDB error codes, see
MariaDB Error Codes.
 
The following procedure tries to query two tables which
don't exist, producing a 1146 error in both cases. Those
errors will trigger the HANDLER. The first time the error
will be ignored and the client will not receive it, but the
second time, the error is re-signaled, so the client will
receive it.
 
CREATE PROCEDURE test_error( )
BEGIN
 DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER

-SELECT INTOSyntax
------ 
SELECT col_name [, col_name] ...
 INTO var_name [, var_name] ...
 table_expr
 
Description
----------- 
SELECT ... INTO enables selected columns to be stored
directly
into variables. No resultset is produced. The query should
return a single row. If the query
returns no rows, a warning with error code 1329 occurs (No
data), and
the variable values remain unchanged. If the query returns
multiple
rows, error 1172 occurs (Result consisted of more than one
row). If it
is possible that the statement may retrieve multiple rows,
you can use
LIMIT 1 to limit the result set to a single row.
 
The INTO clause can also be specified at the end of the
statement.
 
In the context of such statements that occur as part of
events
executed by the Event Scheduler, diagnostics messages (not
only
errors, but also warnings) are written to the error log,
and, on
Windows, to the application event log.
 
This statement can be used with both local variables and
user-defined variables.
 
For the complete syntax, see SELECT.
 
Another way to set a variable's value is the SET statement.
 
SELECT ... INTO results are not stored in the query cache
even if SQL_CACHE is specified.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT id, data INTO @x,@y 
FROM test.t1 LIMIT 1;

REPEAT(str,count)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns a string consisting of the string str repeated count
times. If
count is less than 1, returns an empty string. Returns NULL
if str or

Description
----------- 
Returns the string str with all occurrences of the string
from_str
replaced by the string to_str. REPLACE() performs a
case-sensitive
match when searching for from_str.
 
Examples
--------

)SIGNALSIGNAL and RESIGNAL were both introduced in MariaDB 5.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
SIGNAL error_condition
 [SET error_property
 [, error_property] ...]
 
error_condition:
 SQLSTATE [VALUE] 'sqlstate_value'
 | condition_name
 
error_property:
 error_property_name = 
 
error_property_name:
 CLASS_ORIGIN
 | SUBCLASS_ORIGIN
 | MESSAGE_TEXT
 | MYSQL_ERRNO
 | CONSTRAINT_CATALOG
 | CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA
 | CONSTRAINT_NAME
 | CATALOG_NAME
 | SCHEMA_NAME
 | TABLE_NAME
 | COLUMN_NAME
 | CURSOR_NAME
 
SIGNAL empties the diagnostics area and produces a custom
error. This statement can be used anywhere, but is generally
useful when used inside a stored program. When the error is
produced, it can be caught by a HANDLER. If not, the current
stored program, or the current statement, will terminate
with the specified error.
 
Sometimes an error HANDLER just needs to SIGNAL the same
error it received, optionally with some changes. Usually the
RESIGNAL statement is the most convenient way to do this.
 
error_condition can be an SQLSTATE value or a named error
condition defined via DECLARE CONDITION. SQLSTATE must be a
constant string consisting of five characters. These codes
are standard to ODBC and ANSI SQL. For customized errors,
the recommended SQLSTATE is '45000'. For a list of
SQLSTATE values used by MariaDB, see the MariaDB Error Codes
page. The SQLSTATE can be read via the API method
mysql_sqlstate( ). 
 
To specify error properties user-defined variables and local
variables can be used, as well as character set conversions
(but you can't set a collation).
 
The error properties, their type and their default values
are explained in the diagnostics area page.
 
Errors
 
If the SQLSTATE is not valid, the following error like this
will be produced:
 
ERROR 1407 (42000): Bad SQLSTATE: '123456'
 
If a property is specified more than once, an error like
this will be produced:
 
ERROR 1641 (42000): Duplicate condition information item
'MESSAGE_TEXT'
 
If you specify a condition name which is not declared, an
error like this will be produced:
 
ERROR 1319 (42000): Undefined CONDITION: cond_name
 
If MYSQL_ERRNO is out of range, you will get an error like
this:
 
ERROR 1231 (42000): Variable 'MYSQL_ERRNO' can't be set
to the value of '0'
 
Examples
-------- 
Here's what happens if SIGNAL is used in the client to
generate errors:
 
SIGNAL SQLSTATE '01000';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
 
SHOW WARNINGS;
 
+---------+------+------------------------------------------+
| Level | Code | Message |
+---------+------+------------------------------------------+
| Warning | 1642 | Unhandled user-defined warning condition
|
+---------+------+------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.06 sec)
 
SIGNAL SQLSTATE '02000';
 
ERROR 1643 (02000): Unhandled user-defined not found
condition
 
How to specify MYSQL_ERRNO and MESSAGE_TEXT properties:
 
SIGNAL SQLSTATE '45000' SET MYSQL_ERRNO=30001,
MESSAGE_TEXT='H
ello, world!';
 
ERROR 30001 (45000): Hello, world!
 
The following code shows how to use user variables, local
variables and character set conversion with SIGNAL:
 
CREATE PROCEDURE test_error(x INT)
BEGIN
 DECLARE errno SMALLINT UNSIGNED DEFAULT 31001;
 
 SET @errmsg = 'Hello, world!';
 
 IF x = 1 THEN
 SIGNAL SQLSTATE '45000' SET
 MYSQL_ERRNO = errno,
 MESSAGE_TEXT = @errmsg;
 
 ELSE
 SIGNAL SQLSTATE '45000' SET
 MYSQL_ERRNO = errno,
 MESSAGE_TEXT = _utf8'Hello, world!';
 
 END IF;
 
END;
 
How to use named error conditions:
 
CREATE PROCEDURE test_error(n INT)
BEGIN
 DECLARE `too_big` CONDITION FOR SQLSTATE '45000';
 
 IF n > 10 THEN
 SIGNAL `too_big`;
 
 END IF;
 
END;
 
In this example, we'll define a HANDLER for an error code.
When the error occurs, we SIGNAL a more informative error
which makes sense for our procedure:
 
CREATE PROCEDURE test_error()
BEGIN
 DECLARE EXIT HANDLER
 FOR 1146
 BEGIN
 SIGNAL SQLSTATE '45000' SET
 MESSAGE_TEXT = 'Temporary tables not found; did you call
init() procedure?';
 
 END;
 
 -- this will produce a 1146 error
 SELECT `c` FROM `temptab`;
 
END;

------ 
MultiPolygon(poly1,poly2,...)
 
Description
----------- 
Constructs a WKB MultiPolygon value from a set of WKB
Polygon arguments. If any argument is not a WKB Polygon, the
return value is NULL.
 
Example
 
CREATE TABLE gis_multi_polygon (g MULTIPOLYGON);
INSERT INTO gis_multi_polygon VALUES
 (MultiPolygonFromText('MULTIPOLYGON(((28 26,28 0,84 0,84
42,28 26),(52 18,66 23,73 9,48 6,52 18)),((59 18,67 18,67

t*POLYGONSyntax
------ 
Polygon(ls1,ls2,...)
 
Description
----------- 
Constructs a WKB Polygon value from a number of WKB
LineString
arguments. If any argument does not represent the WKB of a
LinearRing (that is,
not a closed and simple LineString) the return value is
NULL.
 
Note that according to the OpenGIS standard, a POLYGON
should have exactly one ExteriorRing and all other rings
should lie within that ExteriorRing and thus be the
InteriorRings. Practically, however, some systems, including
MariaDB's, permit polygons to have several
'ExteriorRings'. In the case of there being multiple,
non-overlapping exterior rings ST_NUMINTERIORRINGS() will
return 1.
 
Examples
-------- 
SET @g = ST_GEOMFROMTEXT('POLYGON((1 1,1 5,4 9,6 9,9 3,7
2,1 1))');
 
CREATE TABLE gis_polygon (g POLYGON);
INSERT INTO gis_polygon VALUES
 (PolygonFromText('POLYGON((10 10,20 10,20 20,10 20,10
10))')),
 (PolyFromText('POLYGON((0 0,50 0,50 50,0 50,0 0), (10
10,20 10,20 20,10 20,10 10))')),
 (PolyFromWKB(AsWKB(Polygon(LineString(Point(0, 0),
Point(30, 0), Point(30, 30), Point(0, 0))))));
 
Non-overlapping 'polygon':
 
SELECT ST_NumInteriorRings(ST_PolyFromText('POLYGON((0 0,10
0,10 10,0 10,0 0),

In MariaDB 10.0.2 and later, IF EXISTS and IF NOT EXISTS
clauses have been added for the following:
 
ADD COLUMN [IF NOT EXISTS]
ADD INDEX [IF NOT EXISTS]
ADD FOREIGN KEY [IF NOT EXISTS]
ADD PARTITION [IF NOT EXISTS]
CREATE INDEX [IF NOT EXISTS]
 
DROP COLUMN [IF EXISTS]
DROP INDEX [IF EXISTS]
DROP FOREIGN KEY [IF EXISTS]
DROP PARTITION [IF EXISTS]
CHANGE COLUMN [IF EXISTS]
MODIFY COLUMN [IF EXISTS]
DROP INDEX [IF EXISTS]
When IF EXISTS and IF NOT EXISTS are used in clauses,
queries will not
report errors when the condition is triggered for that
clause. A warning with
the same message text will be issued and the ALTER will move
on to the next
clause in the statement (or end if finished).
 
This was done in MDEV-318.
 
Description
----------- 
ALTER TABLE enables you to change the structure of an
existing table.
For example, you can add or delete columns, create or
destroy indexes,
change the type of existing columns, or rename columns or
the table
itself. You can also change the comment for the table and
the storage engine of the
table.
 
If another connection is using the table, a metadata lock is
active, and this statement will wait until the lock is
released. This is also true for non-transactional tables.
 
When adding a UNIQUE index on a column (or a set of columns)
which have duplicated values, an error will be produced and
the statement will be stopped. To suppress the error and
force the creation of UNIQUE indexes, discarding duplicates,
the IGNORE option can be specified. This can be useful if a
column (or a set of columns) should be UNIQUE but it
contains duplicate values; however, this technique provides
no control on which rows are preserved and which are
deleted. Also, note that IGNORE is accepted but ignored in
ALTER TABLE ... EXCHANGE PARTITION statements.
 
This statement can also be used to rename a table. For
details see RENAME TABLE.
 
When an index is created, the storage engine may use a
configurable buffer in the process. Incrementing the buffer
speeds up the index creation. Aria and MyISAM allocate a
buffer whose size is defined by aria_sort_buffer_size or
myisam_sort_buffer_size, also used for REPAIR TABLE.
InnoDB/XtraDB allocates three buffers whose size is defined
by innodb_sort_buffer_size.
 
Privileges
 
Executing the ALTER TABLE statement generally requires at
least the ALTER privilege for the table or the database..
 
If you are renaming a table, then it also requires the DROP,
CREATE and INSERT privileges for the table or the database
as well.
 
Online DDL
 
In MariaDB 10.0 and later, online DDL is supported with the
ALGORITHM and LOCK clauses.
 
See InnoDB Online DDL Overview for more information on
online DDL with InnoDB.
 
ALTER ONLINE TABLE
 
ALTER ONLINE TABLE has also worked for partitioned tables
since MariaDB 10.0.11.
 
Online ALTER TABLE is available by executing the following:
 
ALTER ONLINE TABLE ...;
 
This statement has the following semantics:
 
In MariaDB 10.0.12 and later, this statement is equivalent
to the following:
 
ALTER TABLE ... LOCK=NONE;
 
See the LOCK alter specification for more information.
 
In MariaDB 10.0.11, this statement is equivalent to the
following:
 
ALTER TABLE ... ALGORITHM=INPLACE;
 
See the ALGORITHM alter specification for more information.
 
MariaDB until 10.0.10
 
In MariaDB 10.0.10 and before, this statement ensures that
the ALTER TABLE statement does not make a copy of the table.
 
WAIT/NOWAIT
 
Set the lock wait timeout. See WAIT and NOWAIT.
 
Column Definitions
 
See CREATE TABLE: Column Definitions for information about
column definitions.
 
Index Definitions
 
See CREATE TABLE: Index Definitions for information about
index definitions.
 
The CREATE INDEX and DROP INDEX statements can also be used
to add or remove an index.
 
Character Sets and Collations
 
CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET charset_name [COLLATE
collation_name]
[DEFAULT] CHARACTER SET [=] charset_name
[DEFAULT] COLLATE [=] collation_name
See Setting Character Sets and Collations for details on
setting the character sets and collations.
 
Alter Specifications
 
Table Options
 
See CREATE TABLE: Table Options for information about table
options.
 
ADD COLUMN
 
... ADD COLUMN [IF NOT EXISTS] (col_name
column_definition,...)
Adds a column to the table. The syntax is the same as in
CREATE TABLE.
If you are using IF NOT_EXISTS the column will not be added
if it was not there already. This is very useful when doing
scripts to modify tables.
 
The FIRST and AFTER clauses affect the physical order of
columns in the datafile. Use FIRST to add a column in the
first (leftmost) position, or AFTER followed by a column
name to add the new column in any other position. Note that,
nowadays, the physical position of a column is usually
irrelevant.
 
See also Instant ADD COLUMN for InnoDB.
 
DROP COLUMN
 
... DROP COLUMN [IF EXISTS] col_name [CASCADE|RESTRICT]
Drops the column from the table.
If you are using IF EXISTS you will not get an error if the
column didn't exist.
If the column is part of any index, the column will be
dropped from them, except if you add a new column with
identical name at the same time. The index will be dropped
if all columns from the index were dropped.
If the column was used in a view or trigger, you will get an
error next time the view or trigger is accessed.
 
Dropping a column that is part of a multi-column UNIQUE
constraint is not permitted. For example:
 
CREATE TABLE a (
 a int,
 b int,
 primary key (a,b)
);
 
ALTER TABLE x DROP COLUMN a;
[42000][1072] Key column 'A' doesn�4n?'t exist in table
 
The reason is that dropping column a would result in the new
constraint that all values in column b be unique. In order
to drop the column, an explicit DROP PRIMARY KEY and ADD
PRIMARY KEY would be required. Up until MariaDB 10.2.7, the
column was dropped and the additional constraint applied,
resulting in the following structure:
 
ALTER TABLE x DROP COLUMN a;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.46 sec)
 
DESC x;
+-------+---------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+-------+---------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| b | int(11) | NO | PRI | NULL | |
+-------+---------+------+-----+---------+-------+
 
MariaDB 10.4.0 supports instant DROP COLUMN. DROP COLUMN of
an indexed column would imply DROP INDEX (and in the case of
a non-UNIQUE multi-column index, possibly ADD INDEX). These
will not be allowed with ALGORITHM=INSTANT, but unlike
before, they can be allowed with ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
 
RESTRICT and CASCADE are allowed to make porting from other
database systems easier. In MariaDB, they do nothing.
 
MODIFY COLUMN
 
Allows you to modify the type of a column. The column will
be at the same place as the original column and all indexes
on the column will be kept. Note that when modifying column,
you should specify all attributes for the new column.
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT, PRIMARY
KEY((a));
ALTER TABLE t1 MODIFY a BIGINT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT;
 
CHANGE COLUMN
 
Works like MODIFY COLUMN except that you can also change the
name of the column. The column will be at the same place as
the original column and all index on the column will be
kept.
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT, PRIMARY
KEY(a));
ALTER TABLE t1 CHANGE a b BIGINT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT;
 
ALTER COLUMN
 
This lets you change column options.
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT, b
varchar(50), PRIMARY KEY(a));
ALTER TABLE t1 ALTER b SET DEFAULT 'hello';
 
ADD PRIMARY KEY
 
Add a primary key.
 
For PRIMARY KEY indexes, you can specify a name for the
index, but it is silently ignored, and the name of the index
is always PRIMARY.
 
See Getting Started with Indexes: Primary Key for more
information.
 
DROP PRIMARY KEY
 
Drop a primary key.
 
For PRIMARY KEY indexes, you can specify a name for the
index, but it is silently ignored, and the name of the index
is always PRIMARY.
 
See Getting Started with Indexes: Primary Key for more
information.
 
ADD FOREIGN KEY
 
Add a foreign key.
 
For FOREIGN KEY indexes, a reference definition must be
provided.
 
For FOREIGN KEY indexes, you can specify a name for the
constraint, using the CONSTRAINT keyword. That name will be
used in error messages.
 
First, you have to specify the name of the target (parent)
table and a column or a column list which must be indexed
and whose values must match to the foreign key's values.
The MATCH clause is accepted to improve the compatibility
with other DBMS's, but has no meaning in MariaDB. The ON
DELETE and ON UPDATE clauses specify what must be done when
a DELETE (or a REPLACE) statements attempts to delete a
referenced row from the parent table, and when an UPDATE
statement attempts to modify the referenced foreign key
columns in a parent table row, respectively. The following
options are allowed:
RESTRICT: The delete/update operation is not performed. The
statement terminates with a 1451 error (SQLSTATE '2300').
NO ACTION: Synonym for RESTRICT.
CASCADE: The delete/update operation is performed in both
tables.
SET NULL: The update or delete goes ahead in the parent
table, and the corresponding foreign key fields in the child
table are set to NULL. (They must not be defined as NOT NULL
for this to succeed).
 
MariaDB until 5.3
SET DEFAULT: This option is currently implemented only for
the PBXT storage engine, which is disabled by default and no
longer maintained. It sets the child table's foreign key
fields to their DEFAULT values when the referenced parent
table key entries are updated or deleted.
 
If either clause is omitted, the default behavior for the
omitted clause is RESTRICT.
 
See Foreign Keys for more information.
 
DROP FOREIGN KEY
 
Drop a foreign key.
 
See Foreign Keys for more information.
 
ADD INDEX
 
Add a plain index.
 
Plain indexes are regular indexes that are not unique, and
are not acting as a primary key or a foreign key. They are
also not the "specialized" FULLTEXT or SPATIAL indexes.
 
See Getting Started with Indexes: Plain Indexes for more
information.
 
DROP INDEX
 
Drop a plain index.
 
Plain indexes are regular indexes that are not unique, and
are not acting as a primary key or a foreign key. They are
also not the "specialized" FULLTEXT or SPATIAL indexes.
 
See Getting Started with Indexes: Plain Indexes for more
information.
 
ADD UNIQUE INDEX
 
Add a unique index.
 
The UNIQUE keyword means that the index will not accept
duplicated values, except for NULLs. An error will raise if
you try to insert duplicate values in a UNIQUE index.
 
For UNIQUE indexes, you can specify a name for the
constraint, using the CONSTRAINT keyword. That name will be
used in error messages.
 
See Getting Started with Indexes: Unique Index for more
information.
 
DROP UNIQUE INDEX
 
Drop a unique index.
 
The UNIQUE keyword means that the index will not accept
duplicated values, except for NULLs. An error will raise if
you try to insert duplicate values in a UNIQUE index.
 
For UNIQUE indexes, you can specify a name for the
constraint, using the CONSTRAINT keyword. That name will be
used in error messages.
 
See Getting Started with Indexes: Unique Index for more
information.
 
ADD FULLTEXT INDEX
 
Add a FULLTEXT index.
 
See Full-Text Indexes for more information.
 
DROP FULLTEXT INDEX
 
Drop a FULLTEXT index.
 
See Full-Text Indexes for more information.
 
ADD SPATIAL INDEX
 
Add a SPATIAL index.
 
See SPATIAL INDEX for more information.
 
DROP SPATIAL INDEX
 
Drop a SPATIAL index.
 
See SPATIAL INDEX for more information.
 
ENABLE/ DISABLE KEYS
 
DISABLE KEYS will disable all non unique keys for the table
for storage engines that support this (at least MyISAM and
Aria). This can be used to speed up inserts into empty
tables.
 
ENABLE KEYS will enable all disabled keys.
 
RENAME TO
 
Renames the table. See also RENAME TABLE.
 
ADD CONSTRAINT
 
Modifies the table adding a constraint on a particular
column or columns.
 
MariaDB 10.2.1 introduced new ways to define a constraint.
 
Note: Before MariaDB 10.2.1, constraint expressions were
accepted in syntax, but ignored.
 
ALTER TABLE table_name 
ADD CONSTRAINT [constraint_name] CHECK(expression);
Before a row is inserted or updated, all constraints are
evaluated in the order they are defined. If any constraint
fails, then the row will not be updated. One can use most
deterministic functions in a constraint, including UDF's.
 
CREATE TABLE account_ledger (
 id INT PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
 transaction_name VARCHAR(100),
 credit_account VARCHAR(100),
 credit_amount INT,
 debit_account VARCHAR(100),
 debit_amount INT);
 
ALTER TABLE account_ledger 
ADD CONSTRAINT is_balanced 
 CHECK((debit_amount + credit_amount) = 0);
 
The constraint_name is optional. If you don't provide one
in the ALTER TABLE statement, MariaDB auto-generates a name
for you. This is done so that you can remove it later using
DROP CONSTRAINT clause.
 
You can disable all constraint expression checks by setting
the variable check_constraint_checks to OFF. You may find
this useful when loading a table that violates some
constraints that you want to later find and fix in SQL.
 
To view constraints on a table, query
information_schema.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS:
 
SELECT CONSTRAINT_NAME, TABLE_NAME, CONSTRAINT_TYPE 
FROM information_schema.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'account_ledger';
 
+-----------------+----------------+-----------------+
| CONSTRAINT_NAME | TABLE_NAME | CONSTRAINT_TYPE |
+-----------------+----------------+-----------------+
| is_balanced | account_ledger | CHECK |
+-----------------+----------------+-----------------+
 
DROP CONSTRAINT
 
DROP CONSTRAINT for UNIQUE and FOREIGN KEY constraints was
introduced in MariaDB 10.2.22 and MariaDB 10.WR�3.13.
 
DROP CONSTRAINT for CHECK constraints was introduced in
MariaDB 10.2.1
 
Modifies the table, removing the given constraint.
 
ALTER TABLE table_name
DROP CONSTRAINT constraint_name;
 
When you add a constraint to a table, whether through a
CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE...ADD CONSTRAINT statement, you
can either set a constraint_name yourself, or allow MariaDB
to auto-generate one for you. To view constraints on a
table, query information_schema.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS. For
instance,
 
CREATE TABLE t (
 a INT,
 b INT,
 c INT,
 CONSTRAINT CHECK(a > b),
 CONSTRAINT check_equals CHECK(a = c)); 
 
SELECT CONSTRAINT_NAME, TABLE_NAME, CONSTRAINT_TYPE 
FROM information_schema.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 't';
 
+-----------------+----------------+-----------------+
| CONSTRAINT_NAME | TABLE_NAME | CONSTRAINT_TYPE |
+-----------------+----------------+-----------------+
| check_equals | t | CHECK |
| CONSTRAINT_1 | t | CHECK |
+-----------------+----------------+-----------------+
 
To remove a constraint from the table, issue an ALTER
TABLE...DROP CONSTRAINT statement. For example,
 
ALTER TABLE t DROP CONSTRAINT is_unique;
 
ADD SYSTEM VERSIONING
 
System-versioned tables was added in MariaDB 10.3.4.
 
Add system versioning.
 
DROP SYSTEM VERSIONING
 
System-versioned tables was added in MariaDB 10.3.4.
 
Drop system versioning.
 
ADD PERIOD FOR SYSTEM_TIME
 
System-versioned tables was added in MariaDB 10.3.4.
 
FORCE
 
ALTER TABLE ... FORCE can force MariaDB to re-build the
table.
 
In MariaDB 5.5 and before, this could only be done by
setting the ENGINE table option to its old value. For
example, for an InnoDB table, one could execute the
following:
 
ALTER TABLE tab_name ENGINE = InnoDB;
 
In MariaDB 10.0 and later, the FORCE option can be used
instead. For example, :
 
ALTER TABLE tab_name FORCE;
 
With InnoDB, the table rebuild will only reclaim unused
space (i.e. the space previously used for deleted rows) if
the innodb_file_per_table system variable is set to ON. If
the system variable is OFF, then the space will not be
reclaimed, but it will be-re-used for new data that's later
added.
 
EXCHANGE PARTITION
 
ALTER TABLE ... EXCHANGE PARTITION was introduced in MariaDB
10.0.4
 
This is used to exchange the tablespace files between a
partition and another table.
 
See copying InnoDB's transportable tablespaces for more
information.
 
DISCARD TABLESPACE
 
This is used to discard an InnoDB table's tablespace.
 
See copying InnoDB's transportable tablespaces for more
information.
 
IMPORT TABLESPACE
 
This is used to import an InnoDB table's tablespace. The
tablespace should have been copied from its original server
after executing FLUSH TABLES FOR EXPORT.
 
See copying InnoDB's transportable tablespaces for more
information.
 
ALTER TABLE ... IMPORT only applies to InnoDB tables. Most
other popular storage engines, such as Aria and MyISAM, will
recognize their data files as soon as they've been placed
in the proper directory under the datadir, and no special
DDL is required to import them.
 
ALGORITHM
 
In MariaDB 5.5 and before, ALTER TABLE operations required
making a temporary copy of the table, which can be slow for
large tables.
 
In MariaDB 10.0 and later, the ALTER TABLE statement
supports the ALGORITHM clause. This clause is one of the
clauses that is used to implement online DDL. ALTER TABLE
supports several different algorithms. An algorithm can be
explicitly chosen for an ALTER TABLE operation by setting
the ALGORITHM clause. The supported values are:
ALGORITHM=DEFAULT - This implies the default behavior for
the specific statement, such as if no ALGORITHM clause is
specified.
ALGORITHM=COPY
ALGORITHM=INPLACE
ALGORITHM=NOCOPY - This was added in MariaDB 10.3.7.
ALGORITHM=INSTANT - This was added in MariaDB 10.3.7.
 
See InnoDB Online DDL Overview: ALGORITHM for information on
how the ALGORITHM clause affects InnoDB.
 
ALGORITHM=DEFAULT
 
The default behavior, which occurs if ALGORITHM=DEFAULT is
specified, or if ALGORITHM is not specified at all, usually
only makes a copy if the operation doesn't support being
done in-place at all. In this case, the most efficient
available algorithm will usually be used.
 
However, in MariaDB 10.3.6 and before, if the value of the
old_alter_table system variable is set to ON, then the
default behavior is to perform ALTER TABLE operations by
making a copy of the table using the old algorithm.
 
In MariaDB 10.3.7 and later, the old_alter_table system
variable is deprecated. Instead, the alter_algorithm system
variable defines the default algorithm for ALTER TABLE
operations.
 
ALGORITHM=COPY
 
ALGORITHM=COPY was introduced in MariaDB 10.0 as the name
for the original ALTER TABLE algorithm.
 
When ALGORITHM=INPLACE is set, MariaDB essentially does the
following operations:
 
-- Create a temporary table with the new definition
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE tmp_tab (
...
);
 
-- Copy the data from the original table
INSERT INTO tmp_tab
 SELECT * FROM original_tab;
 
-- Drop the original table
DROP TABLE original_tab;
 
-- Rename the temporary table, so that it replaces the
original one
RENAME TABLE tmp_tab TO original_tab;
 
This algorithm is very inefficient, but it is generic, so it
works for all storage engines.
 
If ALGORITHM=COPY is specified, then the copy algorithm will
be used even if it is not necessary. This can result in a
lengthy table copy. If multiple ALTER TABLE operations are
required that each require the table to be rebuilt, then it
is best to specify all operations in a single ALTER TABLE
statement, so that the table is only rebuilt once.
 
ALGORITHM=INPLACE
 
ALGORITHM=INPLACE was introduced in MariaDB 10.0.
 
ALGORITHM=COPY can be incredibly slow, because the whole
table has to be copied and rebuilt. ALGORITHM=INPLACE was
introduced as a way to avoid this by performing operations
in-place and avoiding the table copy and rebuild, when
possible.
 
When ALGORITHM=INPLACE is set, the underlying storage engine
uses optimizations to perform the operation while avoiding
the table copy and rebuild. However, INPLACE is a bit of a
misnomer, since some operations may still require the table
to be rebuilt for some storage engines. Regardless, several
operations can be performed without a full copy of the table
for some storage engines.
 
A more accurate name would have been ALGORITHM=ENGINE, where
ENGINE refers to an "engine-specific" algorithm.
 
If an ALTER TABLE operation supports ALGORITHM=INPLACE, then
it can be performed using optimizations by the underlying
storage engine, but it may rebuilt.
 
See InnoDB Online DDL Operations with ALGORITHM=INPLACE for
more.
 
ALGORITHM=NOCOPY
 
ALGORITHM=NOCOPY was introduced in MariaDB 10.3.7.
 
ALGORITHM=INPLACE can sometimes be surprisingly slow in
instances where it has to rebuild the clustered index,
because when the clustered index has to be rebuilt, the
whole table has to be rebuilt. ALGORITHM=NOCOPY was
introduced as a way to avoid this. 
 
If an ALTER TABLE operation supports ALGORITHM=NOCOPY, then
it can be performed without rebuilding the clustered index.
 
If ALGORITHM=NOCOPY is specified for an ALTER TABLE
operation that does not support ALGORITHM=NOCOPY, then an
error will be raised. In this case, raising an error is
preferable, if the alternative is for the operation to
rebuild the clustered index, and perform unexpectedly
slowly.
 
See InnoDB Online DDL Operations with ALGORITHM=NOCOPY for
more.
 
ALGORITHM=INSTANT
 
ALGORITHM=INSTANT was introduced in MariaDB 10.3.7.
 
ALGORITHM=INPLACE can sometimes be surprisingly slow in
instances where it has to modify data files.
ALGORITHM=INSTANT was introduced as a way to avoid this.
 
If an ALTER TABLE operation supports ALGORITHM=INSTANT, then
it can be performed without modifying any data files.
 
If ALGORITHM=INSTANT is specified for an ALTER TABLE
operation that does not support ALGORITHM=INSTANT, then an
error will be raised. In this case, raising an error is
preferable, if the alternative is for the operation to
modify data files, and perform unexpectedly slowly.
 
See InnoDB Online DDL Operations with ALGORITHM=INSTANT for
more.

func_body:
 Valid SQL procedure statement
 
Description
----------- 
Use the CREATE FUNCTION statement to create a new stored
function. You must have
the CREATE ROUTINE database privilege to use CREATE
FUNCTION.
A function takes any number of arguments and returns a value
from the function body. The
function body can be any valid SQL expression as you would
use, for example, in any select
expression. If you have the appropriate privileges, you can
call the function exactly as you
would any built-in function. See Security below for details
on privileges.
 
You can also use a variant of the CREATE FUNCTION statement
to install a user-defined
function (UDF) defined by a plugin. See CREATE FUNCTION
(UDF)
for details.
 
You can use a SELECT statement for the function body by
enclosing it in
parentheses, exactly as you would to use a subselect for any
other expression. The SELECT
statement must return a single value. If more than one
column is returned when the function is called,
error 1241 results. If more than one row is returned when
the function is called, error 1242
results. Use a LIMIT clause to ensure only one row is
returned.
 
You can also replace the RETURN clause with a BEGIN...END
compound
statement. The compound statement must contain a RETURN
statement. When the function is
called, the RETURN statement immediately returns its result,
and any statements after RETURN
are effectively ignored.
 
By default, a function is associated with the default
database. To associate the function explicitly
with a given database, specify the fully-qualified name as
db_name.func_name
when you create it. If the function name is the same as the
name of a built-in function, you must
use the fully qualified name when you call it.
 
The parameter list enclosed within parentheses must always
be present.
If there are no parameters, an empty parameter list of ()
should be
used. Parameter names are not case sensitive.
 
Each parameter can be declared to use any valid data type,
except that
the COLLATE attribute cannot be used.
 
For valid identifiers to use as function names, see
Identifier Names.
 
AGGREGATE
 
From MariaDB 10.3.3, it is possible to create stored
aggregate functions as well. See Stored Aggregate Functions
for details.
 
RETURNS
 
The RETURNS clause specifies the return type of the
function. NULL values are permitted with all return types.
 
What happens if the RETURN clause returns a value of a
different type? It depends on the SQL_MODE in effect at the
moment of the function creation.
 
If the SQL_MODE is strict (STRICT_ALL_TABLES or
STRICT_TRANS_TABLES flags are specified), a 1366 error will
be produced.
 
Otherwise, the value is coerced to the proper type. For
example, if a function
specifies an ENUM or SET value in the RETURNS clause, but
the RETURN
clause returns an integer, the value returned from the
function is the string for the corresponding ENUM
member of set of SET members.
 
MariaDB stores the SQL_MODE system variable setting that is
in effect at the
time a routine is created, and always executes the routine
with this setting in
force, regardless of the server SQL mode in effect when the
routine is invoked.
 
LANGUAGE SQL
 
LANGUAGE SQL is a standard SQL clause, and it can be used in
MariaDB for portability. However that clause has no meaning,
because SQL is the only supported language for stored
functions.
 
A function is deterministic if it can produce only one
result for a given list of parameters. If the result may be
affected by stored data, server variables, random numbers or
any value that is not explicitly passed, then the function
is not deterministic. Also, a function is non-deterministic
if it uses non-deterministic functions like NOW() or
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP(). The optimizer may choose a faster
execution plan if it known that the function is
deterministic. In such cases, you should declare the routine
using the DETERMINISTIC keyword. If you want to explicitly
state that the function is not deterministic (which is the
default) you can use the NOT DETERMINISTIC keywords.
 
If you declare a non-deterministic function as
DETERMINISTIC, you may get incorrect results. If you declare
a deterministic function as NOT DETERMINISTIC, in some cases
the queries will be slower.
 
OR REPLACE
 
If the optional OR REPLACE clause is used, it acts as a
shortcut for:
 
DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS function_name;
 
CREATE FUNCTION function_name ...;
 
with the exception that any existing privileges for the
function are not dropped.
 
IF NOT EXISTS
 
If the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a
warning instead of an error if the function already exists.
Cannot be used together with OR REPLACE.
 
[NOT] DETERMINISTIC
 
The [NOT] DETERMINISTIC clause also affects binary logging,
because the STATEMENT format can not be used to store or
replicate non-deterministic statements.
 
CONTAINS SQL, NO SQL, READS SQL DATA, and MODIFIES SQL DATA
are informative clauses that tell the server what the
function does. MariaDB does not check in any way whether the
specified clause is correct. If none of these clauses are
specified, CONTAINS SQL is used by default.
 
MODIFIES SQL DATA
 
MODIFIES SQL DATA means that the function contains
statements that may modify data stored in databases. This
happens if the function contains statements like DELETE,
UPDATE, INSERT, REPLACE or DDL.
 
READS SQL DATA
 
READS SQL DATA means that the function reads data stored in
databases, but does not modify any data. This happens if
SELECT statements are used, but there no write operations
are executed.
 
CONTAINS SQL
 
CONTAINS SQL means that the function contains at least one
SQL statement, but it does not read or write any data stored
in a database. Examples include SET or DO.
 
NO SQL
 
NO SQL means nothing, because MariaDB does not currently
support any language other than SQL.
 
Oracle Mode
 
From MariaDB 10.3, a subset of Oracle's PL/SQL language has
been supported in addition to the traditional SQL/PSM-based
MariaDB syntax. See Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3 for
details on changes when running Oracle mode.
 
Security
 
You must have the EXECUTE privilege on a function to call
it.
MariaDB automatically grants the EXECUTE and ALTER ROUTINE
privileges to the
account that called CREATE FUNCTION, even if the DEFINER
clause was used.
 
Each function has an account associated as the definer. By
default, the definer is the account
that created the function. Use the DEFINER clause to specify
a different account as the
definer. You must have the SUPER privilege to use the
DEFINER
clause. See Account Names for details on specifying
accounts.
 
The SQL SECURITY clause specifies what privileges are used
when a function is called.
If SQL SECURITY is INVOKER, the function body will be
evaluated using the privileges
of the user calling the function. If SQL SECURITY is
DEFINER, the function body is
always evaluated using the privileges of the definer
account. DEFINER is the default.
 
This allows you to create functions that grant limited
access to certain data. For example, say
you have a table that stores some employee information, and
that you've granted SELECT
privileges only on certain columns to the user account
roger.
 
CREATE TABLE employees (name TINYTEXT, dept TINYTEXT, salary
INT);
GRANT SELECT (name, dept) ON employees TO roger;
 
To allow the user the get the maximum salary for a
department, define a function and grant
the EXECUTE privilege:
 
CREATE FUNCTION max_salary (dept TINYTEXT) RETURNS INT
RETURN
 (SELECT MAX(salary) FROM employees WHERE employees.dept =
dept);
GRANT EXECUTE ON FUNCTION max_salary TO roger;
 
Since SQL SECURITY defaults to DEFINER, whenever the user
roger calls
th$�8��2is function, the subselect will execute with your
privileges. As long as you have privileges to
select the salary of each employee, the caller of the
function will be able to get the maximum
salary for each department without being able to see
individual salaries.
 
Character sets and collations
 
Function return types can be declared to use any valid
character set and collation. If used, the COLLATE attribute
needs to be preceded by a CHARACTER SET attribute.
 
If the character set and collation are not specifically set
in the statement, the database defaults at the time of
creation will be used. If the database defaults change at a
later stage, the stored function character set/collation
will not be changed at the same time; the stored function
needs to be dropped and recreated to ensure the same
character set/collation as the database is used.
 
Examples
-------- 
The following example function takes a parameter, performs
an operation using
an SQL function, and returns the result.
 
CREATE FUNCTION hello (s CHAR(20))
 RETURNS CHAR(50) DETERMINISTIC
 RETURN CONCAT('Hello, ',s,'!');
 
SELECT hello('world');
+----------------+
| hello('world') |
+----------------+
| Hello, world! |
+----------------+
 
You can use a compound statement in a function to manipulate
data with statements
like INSERT and UPDATE. The following example creates a
counter function
that uses a temporary table to store the current value.
Because the compound statement
contains statements terminated with semicolons, you have to
first change the statement
delimiter with the DELIMITER statement to allow the
semicolon to be used in the
function body. See Delimiters in the mysql client for more.
 
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE counter (c INT);
INSERT INTO counter VALUES (0);
DELIMITER //
CREATE FUNCTION counter () RETURNS INT
 BEGIN
 UPDATE counter SET c = c + 1;
 
 RETURN (SELECT c FROM counter LIMIT 1);
 END //
DELIMITER ;
 
Character set and collation:
 
CREATE FUNCTION hello2 (s CHAR(20))
 RETURNS CHAR(50) CHARACTER SET 'utf8' COLLATE
'utf8_bin' DETERMINISTIC
 RETURN CONCAT('Hello, ',s,'!');

 [MAX_ROWS [=] max_number_of_rows]
 [MIN_ROWS [=] min_number_of_rows]
 [TABLESPACE [=] tablespace_name]
 [NODEGROUP [=] node_group_id]
If the PARTITION BY clause is used, the table will be
partitioned. A partition method must be explicitly indicated
for partitions and subpartitions. Partition methods are:
[LINEAR] HASH creates a hash key which will be used to read
and write rows. The partition function can be any valid SQL
expression which returns an INTEGER number. Thus, it is
possible to use the HASH method on an integer column, or on
functions which accept integer columns as an argument.
However, VALUES LESS THAN and VALUES IN clauses can not be
used with HASH. An example:
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT, b CHAR(5), c DATETIME)
 PARTITION BY HASH ( YEAR(c) );
 
 [LINEAR] HASH can be used for subpartitions, too.
[LINEAR] KEY is similar to HASH, but the index has an even
distribution of data. Also, the expression can only be a
column or a list of columns. VALUES LESS THAN and VALUES IN
clauses can not be used with KEY.
RANGE partitions the rows using on a range of values, using
the VALUES LESS THAN operator. VALUES IN is not allowed with
RANGE. The partition function can be any valid SQL
expression which returns a single value.
LIST assignes partitions based on a table's column with a
restricted set of possible values. It is similar to RANGE,
but VALUES IN must be used for at least 1 columns, and
VALUES LESS THAN is disallowed.
SYSTEM_TIME partitioning is used for System-versioned tables
to store historical data separately from current data.
 
Only HASH and KEY can be used for subpartitions, and they
can be [LINEAR].
 
It is possible to define up to 1024 partitions and
subpartitions.
 
The number of defined partitions can be optionally specified
as PARTITION count. This can be done to avoid specifying all
partitions individually. But you can also declare each
individual partition and, additionally, specify a PARTITIONS
count clause; in the case, the number of PARTITIONs must
equal count.
 
Also see Partitioning Types Overview.
 
Sequences
 
CREATE TABLE can also be used to create a SEQUENCE. See
CREATE SEQUENCE and Sequence Overview.
 
Examples
-------- 
create table if not exists test (
a bigint auto_increment primary key,
name varchar(128) charset utf8,
key name (name(32))
) engine=InnoDB default charset latin1;
 
This example shows a couple of things:
Usage of IF NOT EXISTS; If the table already existed, it
will not be created. There will not be any error for the
client, just a warning.
How to create a PRIMARY KEY that is automatically generated.
How to specify a table-specific character set and another
for a column.
How to create an index (name) that is only partly indexed
(to save space).
 
The following clauses will work from MariaDB 10.2.1 only.
 
CREATE TABLE t1(
 a int DEFAULT (1+1),
 b int DEFAULT (a+1),
 expires DATETIME DEFAULT(NOW() + INTERVAL 1 YEAR),
 x BLOB DEFAULT USER()
);

routine_body:
 Valid SQL procedure statement
 
Description
----------- 
Creates a stored procedure. By default, a routine is
associated with the default database. To associate the
routine
explicitly with a given database, specify the name as
db_name.sp_name
when you create it.
 
When the routine is invoked, an implicit USE db_name is
performed (and
undone when the routine terminates). The causes the routine
to have
the given default database while it executes. USE statements
within
stored routines are disallowed.
 
When a stored procedure has been created, you invoke it by
using the CALL statement (see CALL).
 
To execute the CREATE PROCEDURE statement, it is
necessary to have the CREATE ROUTINE privilege. By default,
MariaDB
automatically grants the ALTER ROUTINE and EXECUTE
privileges to the
routine creator. See also Stored Routine Privileges.
 
The DEFINER and SQL SECURITY clauses specify the security
context to
be used when checking access privileges at routine execution
time, as
described later.
 
If the routine name is the same as the name of a built-in
SQL
function, you must use a space between the name and the
following
parenthesis when defining the routine, or a syntax error
occurs. This
is also true when you invoke the routine later. For this
reason, we
suggest that it is better to avoid re-using the names of
existing SQL
functions for your own stored routines.
 
The IGNORE_SPACE SQL mode applies to built-in functions, not
to stored
routines. It is always allowable to have spaces after a
routine name,
regardless of whether IGNORE_SPACE is enabled.
 
The parameter list enclosed within parentheses must always
be present.
If there are no parameters, an empty parameter list of ()
should be
used. Parameter names are not case sensitive.
 
Each parameter can be declared to use any valid data type,
except that
the COLLATE attribute cannot be used.
 
For valid identifiers to use as procedure names, see
Identifier Names.
 
IN/OUT/INOUT
 
Each parameter is an IN parameter by default. To specify
otherwise for
a parameter, use the keyword OUT or INOUT before the
parameter name.
 
An IN parameter passes a value into a procedure. The
procedure might
modify the value, but the modification is not visible to the
caller
when the procedure returns. An OUT parameter passes a value
from the
procedure back to the caller. Its initial value is NULL
within the
procedure, and its value is visible to the caller when the
procedure
returns. An INOUT parameter is initialized by the caller,
can be
modified by the procedure, and any change made by the
procedure is
visible to the caller when the procedure returns.
 
For each OUT or INOUT parameter, pass a user-defined
variable in the
CALL statement that invokes the procedure so that you can
obtain its
value when the procedure returns. If you are calling the
procedure
from within another stored procedure or function, you can
also pass a
routine parameter or local routine variable as an IN or
INOUT
parameter.
 
DETERMINISTIC/NOT DETERMINISTIC
 
DETERMINISTIC and NOT DETERMINISTIC apply only to functions.
Specifying DETERMINISTC or NON-DETERMINISTIC in procedures
has no effect. The default value is NOT DETERMINISTIC.
Functions are DETERMINISTIC when they always return the same
value for the same input. For example, a truncate or
substring function. Any function involving data, therefore,
is always NOT DETERMINISTIC.
 
CONTAINS SQL/NO SQL/READS SQL DATA/MODIFIES SQL DATA
 
CONTAINS SQL, NO SQL, READS SQL DATA, and MODIFIES SQL DATA
are informative clauses that tell the server what the
function does. MariaDB does not check in any way whether the
specified clause is correct. If none of these clauses are
specified, CONTAINS SQL is used by default.
 
MODIFIES SQL DATA means that the function contains
statements that may modify data stored in databases. This
happens if the function contains statements like DELETE,
UPDATE, INSERT, REPLACE or DDL.
 
READS SQL DATA means that the function reads data stored in
databases, but does not modify any data. This happens if
SELECT statements are used, but there no write operations
are executed.
 
CONTAINS SQL means that the function contains at least one
SQL statement, but it does not read or write any data stored
in a database. Examples include SET or DO.
 
NO SQL means nothing, because MariaDB does not currently
support any language other than SQL.
 
The routine_body consists of a valid SQL procedure
statement. This can
be a simple statement such as SELECT or INSERT, or it can be
a
compound statement written using BEGIN and END. Compound
statements
can contain declarations, loops, and other control structure
statements. See Programmatic and Compound Statements for
syntax details.
 
MariaDB allows routines to contain DDL statements, such as
CREATE and
DROP. MariaDB also allows stored procedures (but not stored
functions)
to contain SQL transaction statements such as COMMIT.
 
For additional information about statements that are not
allowed in
stored routines, see Stored Routine Limitations.
 
Invoking stored procedure from within programs
 
For information about invoking stored procedures from within
programs written in a language that has a MariaDB/MySQL
interface, see CALL.
 
OR REPLACE
 
If the optional OR REPLACE clause is used, it acts as a
shortcut for:
 
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS name;
 
CREATE PROCEDURE name ...;
 
with the exception that any existing privileges for the
procedure are not dropped.
 
sql_mode
 
MariaDB stores the sql_mode system variable setting that is
in effect at the time a routine is created, and always
executes the routine with this setting in force, regardless
of the server SQL mode in effect when the routine is
invoked.
 
Character Sets and Collations
 
Procedure parameters can be declared with any character
set/collation. If the character set and collation are not
specifically set, the database defaults at the time of
creation will be used. If the database defaults change at a
later stage, the stored procedure character set/collation
will not be changed at the same time; the stored procedure
needs to be dropped and recreated to ensure the same
character set/collation as the database is used.
 
Oracle Mode
 
From MariaDB 10.3, a subset of Oracle's PL/SQL language has
been supported in addition to the traditional SQL/PSM-based
MariaDB syntax. See Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3 for
details on changes when running Oracle mode.
 
Examples
-------- 
The following example shows a simple stored procedure that
uses an OUT
parameter. It uses the DELIMITER command to set a new
delimiter for the duration of the process — see Delimiters
in the mysql client.
 
DELIMITER //
 
CREATE PROCEDURE simpleproc (OUT param1 INT)
 BEGIN
 SELECT COUNT(*) INTO param1 FROM t;
 END;
//
 
DELIMITER ;
 
CALL simpleproc(@a);
 
SELECT @a;
+------+

 OUT param1 CHAR(10) CHARACTER SET 'utf8' COLLATE
'utf8_bin'
)
 BEGIN
 SELECT CONCAT('a'),f1 INTO param1 FROM t;
 END;

�.CACHE INDEXSyntax
------ 
CACHE INDEX 
 tbl_index_list [, tbl_index_list] ...
 IN key_cache_name 
 
tbl_index_list:
 tbl_name [[INDEX|KEY] (index_name[, index_name] ...)]
 
Description
----------- 
The CACHE INDEX statement assigns table indexes to a
specific key
cache. It is used only for MyISAM tables.
 
A default key cache exists and cannot be destroyed. To
create more key caches, the key_buffer_size server system
variable.
 
The associations between tables indexes and key caches are
lost on server restart. To recreate them automatically, it
is necessary to configure caches in a configuration file and
include some CACHE INDEX (and optionally LOAD INDEX)
statements in the init file.
 
Examples
-------- 
The following statement assigns indexes from the tables t1,
t2, and t3
to the key cache named hot_cache:
 
CACHE INDEX t1, t2, t3 IN hot_cache;
+---------+--------------------+----------+----------+
| Table | Op | Msg_type | Msg_text |
+---------+--------------------+----------+----------+
| test.t1 | assign_to_keycache | status | OK |
| test.t2 | assign_to_keycache | status | OK |
| test.t3 | assign_to_keycache | status | OK |
+---------+--------------------+----------+----------+
 
Implementation (for MyISAM)
 
Normally CACHE INDEX should not take a long time to execute.
Internally it's implemented the following way:
Find the right key cache (under
LOCK_global_system_variables)
Open the table with a TL_READ_NO_INSERT lock.
Flush the original key cache for the given file (under key
cache lock)
Flush the new key cache for the given file (safety)
Move the file to the new key cache (under file share lock)
 
The only possible long operations are getting the locks for
the table and flushing the original key cache, if there were
many key blocks for the file in it.
 
We plan to also add CACHE INDEX for Aria tables if there is
a need for this.

�:FLUSH TABLES FOR EXPORTFLUSH TABLES ... FOR EXPORT was introduced in MariaDB
10.0.8.
 
Syntax
------ 
FLUSH TABLES table_name [, table_name] FOR EXPORT
 
Description
----------- 
FLUSH TABLES ... FOR EXPORT flushes changes to the specified
tables to disk so that binary copies can be made while the
server is still running. This works for Archive, Aria, CSV,
InnoDB, MyISAM, MERGE, and XtraDB tables.
 
The table is read locked until one has issued UNLOCK TABLES.
 
If a storage engine does not support FLUSH TABLES FOR
EXPORT, a 1031 error (SQLSTATE 'HY000') is produced.
 
If FLUSH TABLES ... FOR EXPORT is in effect in the session,
the following statements will produce an error if attempted:
FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK
FLUSH TABLES ... WITH READ LOCK
FLUSH TABLES ... FOR EXPORT
Any statement trying to update any table
 
If any of the following statements is in effect in the
session, attempting  FLUSH TABLES ... FOR EXPORT will
produce an error.
FLUSH TABLES ... WITH READ LOCK
FLUSH TABLES ... FOR EXPORT
LOCK TABLES ... READ
LOCK TABLES ... WRITE
 
FLUSH FOR EXPORT is not written to the binary log.
 
This statement requires the RELOAD and the LOCK TABLES
privileges.
 
If one of the specified tables cannot be locked, none of the
tables will be locked.
 
If a table does not exist, an error like the following will
be produced:
 
ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'test.xxx' doesn't exist
 
If a table is a view, an error like the following will be
produced:
 
ERROR 1347 (HY000): 'test.v' is not BASE TABLE
 
Example
 
FLUSH TABLES test.t1 FOR EXPORT;
# Copy files related to the table (see below)
UNLOCK TABLES;

/HELP CommandSyntax
------ 
HELP search_string
 
Description
----------- 
The HELP command can be used in any MariaDB client, such as
the mysql command-line client, to get basic syntax help and
a short description for most commands and functions. 
 
If you provide an argument to the HELP command, the mysql
client uses it as a search string to access server-side
help. The proper operation of this command requires that the
help tables in the mysql database be initialized with help
topic information.
 
If there is no match for the search string, the search
fails. Use help contents to see a list of the help
categories:
 
HELP contents
You asked for help about help category: "Contents"
For more information, type 'help ', where  is one of the
following
categories:
 
 Account Management
 Administration
 Compound Statements
 Data Definition
 Data Manipulation
 Data Types
 Functions
 Functions and Modifiers for Use with GROUP BY
 Geographic Features
 Language Structure
 Plugins
 Table Maintenance
 Transactions
 User-Defined Functions
 Utility
 
If a search string matches multiple items, MariaDB shows a
list of matching topics:
 
HELP create
Many help items for your request exist.
To make a more specific request, please type 'help ',
where  is one of the following
topics:
 CREATE DATABASE
 CREATE EVENT
 CREATE FUNCTION
 CREATE FUNCTION UDF
 CREATE INDEX
 CREATE PROCEDURE
 CREATE SERVER
 CREATE TABLE
 CREATE TABLESPACE
 CREATE TRIGGER
 CREATE USER
 CREATE VIEW
 SHOW
 SHOW CREATE DATABASE
 SHOW CREATE EVENT
 SHOW CREATE FUNCTION
 SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE
 SHOW CREATE TABLE
 SPATIAL
 
Then you can enter a topic as the search string to see the
help entry for that topic.
 
The help is provided with the MariaDB server and makes use
of four help tables found in the mysql database:
help_relation, help_topic, help_category and help_keyword.
These tables are populated by the mysql_install_db or
fill_help_table.sql scripts which currently contain data
generated from an old version of MySQL.

select_statement:
 [IGNORE | REPLACE] [AS] SELECT ... (Some legal select
statement)
 
Description
----------- 
Use the CREATE TABLE statement to create a table with the
given name.
 
In its most basic form, the CREATE TABLE statement provides
a table name
followed by a list of columns, indexes, and constraints. By
default, the table
is created in the default database. Specify a database with
db_name.tbl_name.
If you quote the table name, you must quote the database
name and table name
separately as `db_name`.`tbl_name`. This is particularly
useful for CREATE TABLE ... SELECT, because it allows to
create a table into a database, which contains data from
other databases. See Identifier Qualifiers.
 
If a table with the same name exists, error 1050 results.
Use IF NOT EXISTS
to suppress this error and issue a note instead. Use SHOW
WARNINGS
to see notes.
 
The CREATE TABLE statement automatically commits the current
transaction,
except when using the TEMPORARY keyword.
 
For valid identifiers to use as table names, see Identifier
Names.
 
Note: if the default_storage_engine is set to ColumnStore
then it needs setting on all UMs. Otherwise when the tables
using the default engine are replicated across UMs they will
use the wrong engine. You should therefore not use this
option as a session variable with ColumnStore.
 
Microsecond precision can be between 0-6. If no precision is
specified it is assumed to be 0, for backward compatibility
reasons.
 
Privileges
 
Executing the CREATE TABLE statement requires the CREATE
privilege for the table or the database.
 
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE ...
 
The OR REPLACE clause was added in MariaDB 10.0.8.
 
If the OR REPLACE clause is used and if the table already
exists, then instead of returning an error, the server will
drop the existing table and replace it with the newly
defined table.
 
This syntax was originally added to make replication more
robust if it has to rollback and repeat statements such as
CREATE ... SELECT on slaves.
 
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE table_name (a int);
 
is basically the same as:
 
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS table_name;
CREATE TABLE table_name (a int);
 
with the following exceptions:
If table_name was locked with LOCK TABLES it will continue
to be locked after the statement.
Temporary tables are only dropped if the TEMPORARY keyword
was used. (With DROP TABLE, temporary tables are preferred
to be dropped before normal tables).
 
Things to be Aware of With CREATE OR REPLACE
 
The table is dropped first (if it existed), after that the
CREATE is done. Because of this, if the CREATE fails, then
the table will not exist anymore after the statement. If the
table was used with LOCK TABLES it will be unlocked.
One can't use OR REPLACE together with IF EXISTS.
Slaves in replication will by default use CREATE OR REPLACE
when replicating CREATE statements that don''t use IF
EXISTS. This can be changed by setting the variable
slave-ddl-exec-mode to STRICT.
 
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ...
 
If the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, then the index will
only be created if an index with the same name does not
already exist. If the index already exists, then a warning
will be triggered by default.
 
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE ...
 
Use the TEMPORARY keyword to create a temporary table that
is only available to your current session. Temporary tables
are dropped when the your session ends. Temporary table
names are specific to your session. They will not conflict
with other temporary tables from other session even if they
share the same name. They will shadow names of non-temporary
tables or views, if they are identical. A temporary table
can have the same name as a non-temporary table which is
located in the same database. In that case, their name will
reference the temporary table when used in SQL statements.
You must have the CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES privilege on the
database to create temporary tables. If no storage engine is
specified, the default_tmp_storage_engine setting will
determine the engine.
 
CREATE TABLE ... LIKE
 
Use the LIKE clause instead of a full table definition to
create a table with the same definition as another table,
including columns, indexes, and table options. Foreign key
definitions, as well as any DATA DIRECTORY or INDEX
DIRECTORY table options specified on the original table,
will not be created.
 
CREATE TABLE ... SELECT
 
You can create a table containing data from other tables
using the CREATE ... SELECT statement. Columns will be
created in the table for each field returned by the SELECT
query.
 
You can also define some columns normally and add other
columns from a SELECT. You can also create columns in the
normal way and assign them some values using the query, this
is done to force a certain type or other field
characteristics. The columns that are not named in the query
will be placed before the others. For example:
 
CREATE TABLE test (a INT NOT NULL, b CHAR(10)) ENGINE=MyISAM
 SELECT 5 AS b, c, d FROM another_table;
 
Remember that the query just returns data. If you want to
use the same indexes, or the same columns attributes ([NOT]
NULL, DEFAULT, AUTO_INCREMENT) in the new table, you need to
specify them manually. Types and sizes are not automatically
preserved if no data returned by the SELECT requires the
full size, and VARCHAR could be converted into CHAR. The
CAST() function can be used to forcee the new table to use
certain types.
 
Aliases (AS) are taken into account, and they should always
be used when you SELECT an expression (function,
arithmetical operation, etc).
 
If an error occurs during the query, the table will not be
created at all.
 
If the new table has a primary key or UNIQUE indexes, you
can use the IGNORE or REPLACE keywords to handle duplicate
key errors during the query. IGNORE means that the newer
values must not be inserted an identical value exists in the
index. REPLACE means that older values must be overwritten.
 
If the columns in the new table are more than the rows
returned by the query, the columns populated by the query
will be placed after other columns. Note that if the strict
SQL_MODE is on, and the columns that are not names in the
query do not have a DEFAULT value, an error will raise and
no rows will be copied.
 
Concurrent inserts are not used during the execution of a
CREATE ... SELECT.
 
If the table already exists, an error similar to the
following will be returned:
 
ERROR 1050 (42S01): Table 't' already exists
 
If the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used and the table exists, a
note will be produced instead of an error.
 
To insert rows from a query into an existing table, INSERT
... SELECT can be used.

constraint_definition:
 CONSTRAINT [constraint_name] CHECK (expression)
Note: MariaDB accepts the REFERENCES clause in ALTER TABLE
and CREATE TABLE column definitions, but that syntax does
nothing. MariaDB simply parses it without returning any
error or warning, for compatibility with other DBMS's.
Before MariaDB 10.2.1 this was also true for CHECK
constraints. Only the syntax for indexes described below
creates foreign keys.
 
Each definition either creates a column in the table or
specifies and index or
constraint on one or more columns. See Indexes below for
details
on c�S�reating indexes.
 
Create a column by specifying a column name and a data type,
optionally
followed by column options. See Data Types for a full list
of data types allowed in MariaDB.
 
NULL and NOT NULL
 
Use the NULL or NOT NULL options to specify that values in
the column
may or may not be NULL, respectively. By default, values may
be NULL. See also NULL Values in MariaDB.
 
DEFAULT Column Option
 
The DEFAULT clause was enhanced in MariaDB 10.2.1. Some
enhancements include
BLOB and TEXT columns now support DEFAULT.
The DEFAULT clause can now be used with an expression or
function.
 
Specify a default value using the DEFAULT clause. If you
don't specify DEFAULT then the following rules apply:
If the column is not defined with NOT NULL, AUTO_INCREMENT
or TIMESTAMP, an explicit DEFAULT NULL will be added.
Note that in MySQL and in MariaDB before 10.1.6, you may get
an explicit DEFAULT for primary key parts, if not specified
with NOT NULL.
 
The default value will be used if you INSERT a row without
specifying a value for that column, or if you specify
DEFAULT for that column.
Before MariaDB 10.2.1 you couldn't usually provide an
expression or function to evaluate at
insertion time. You had to provide a constant default value
instead. The one
exception is that you may use CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as
the default value for a TIMESTAMP column to use the current
timestamp at insertion time.
 
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP may also be used as
the default value for a DATETIME
 
From MariaDB 10.2.1 you can use most functions in DEFAULT.
Expressions should have parentheses around them. If you use
a non deterministic function in DEFAULT then all inserts to
the table will be replicated in row mode. You can even refer
to earlier columns in the DEFAULT expression:
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (a int DEFAULT (1+1), b int DEFAULT (a+1));
CREATE TABLE t2 (a bigint primary key DEFAULT UUID_SHORT());
 
The DEFAULT clause cannot contain any stored functions or
subqueries, and a column used in the clause must already
have been defined earlier in the statement.
 
Since MariaDB 10.2.1, it is possible to assign BLOB or TEXT
columns a DEFAULT value. In earlier versions, assigning a
default to these columns was not possible.
 
Starting from 10.3.3 you can also use DEFAULT (NEXT VALUE
FOR sequence)
 
AUTO_INCREMENT Column Option
 
Use AUTO_INCREMENT to create a column whose value can
can be set automatically from a simple counter. You can only
use AUTO_INCREMENT
on a column with an integer type. The column must be a key,
and there can only be
one AUTO_INCREMENT column in a table. If you insert a row
without specifying
a value for that column (or if you specify 0, NULL, or
DEFAULT
as the value), the actual value will be taken from the
counter, with each insertion
incrementing the counter by one. You can still insert a
value explicitly. If you
insert a value that is greater than the current counter
value, the counter is
set based on the new value. An AUTO_INCREMENT column is
implicitly NOT NULL.
Use LAST_INSERT_ID to get the AUTO_INCREMENT value
most recently used by an INSERT statement.
 
ZEROFILL Column Option
 
If the ZEROFILL column option is specified for a column
using a numeric data type, then the column will be set to
UNSIGNED and the spaces used by default to pad the field are
replaced with zeros. ZEROFILL is ignored in expressions or
as part of a UNION. ZEROFILL is a non-standard MySQL and
MariaDB enhancement.
 
PRIMARY KEY Column Option
 
Use PRIMARY KEY (or just KEY) to make a column a primary
key. A primary key is a special type of a unique key. There
can be at most one primary key per table, and it is
implicitly NOT NULL.
 
Specifying a column as a unique key creates a unique index
on that column. See the Index Definitions section below for
more information.
 
UNIQUE KEY Column Option
 
Use UNIQUE KEY (or just UNIQUE) to specify that all values
in the column
must be distinct from each other. Unless the column is NOT
NULL, there may be
multiple rows with NULL in the column. 
 
Specifying a column as a unique key creates a unique index
on that column. See the Index Definitions section below for
more information.
 
COMMENT Column Option
 
You can provide a comment for each column using the COMMENT
clause. The maximum length is 1024 characters (it was 255
characters before MariaDB 5.5). Use
the SHOW FULL COLUMNS statement to see column comments.
 
Generated Columns
 
A generated column is a column in a table that cannot
explicitly be set to a specific value in a DML query.
Instead, its value is automatically generated based on an
expression. This expression might generate the value based
on the values of other columns in the table, or it might
generate the value by calling built-in functions or
user-defined functions (UDFs).
 
There are two types of generated columns:
PERSISTENT or STORED: This type's value is actually stored
in the table.
VIRTUAL: This type's value is not stored at all. Instead,
the value is generated dynamically when the table is
queried. This type is the default.
 
Generated columns are also sometimes called computed columns
or virtual columns.
 
For a complete description about generated columns and their
limitations, see Generated (Virtual and Persistent/Stored)
Columns.
 
COLUMN_FORMAT
 
COLUMN_FORMAT is only used by MySQL Cluster, and is silently
ignored in MariaDB.
 
COMPRESSED
 
Certain columns may be compressed. See Storage-Engine
Independent Column Compression.
 
INVISIBLE
 
Columns may be made invisible, and hidden in certain
contexts. See Invisible Columns.
 
WITH SYSTEM VERSIONING Column Option
 
Columns may be explicitly marked as included from system
versioning. See System-versioned tables for details.
 
WITHOUT SYSTEM VERSIONING Column Option
 
Columns may be explicitly marked as excluded from system
versioning. See System-versioned tables for details.

INDEX and KEY are synonyms. 
 
Index names are optional, if not specified an automatic name
will be assigned. Index name are needed to drop indexes and
appear in error messages when a constraint is violated.
 
Index Categories
 
Plain Indexes
 
Plain indexes are regular indexes that are not unique, and
are not acting as a primary key or a foreign key. They are
also not the "specialized" FULLTEXT or SPATIAL indexes.
 
See Getting Started with Indexes: Plain Indexes for more
information.
 
PRIMARY KEY
 
For PRIMARY KEY indexes, you can specify a name for the
index, but it is silently ignored, and the name of the index
is always PRIMARY.
 
See Getting Started with Indexes: Primary Key for more
information.
 
UNIQUE
 
The UNIQUE keyword means that the index will not accept
duplicated values, except for NULLs. An error will raise if
you try to insert duplicate values in a UNIQUE index.
 
For UNIQUE indexes, you can specify a name for the
constraint, using the CONSTRAINT keyword. That name will be
used in error messages.
 
See Getting Started with Indexes: Unique Index for more
information.
 
FOREIGN KEY
 
For FOREIGN KEY indexes, a reference definition must be
provided.
 
For FOREIGN KEY indexes, you can specify a name for the
constraint, using the CONSTRAINT keyword. That name will be
used in error messages.
 
First, you have to specify the name of the targ:L�aet (parent)
table and a column or a column list which must be indexed
and whose values must match to the foreign key's values.
The MATCH clause is accepted to improve the compatibility
with other DBMS's, but has no meaning in MariaDB. The ON
DELETE and ON UPDATE clauses specify what must be done when
a DELETE (or a REPLACE) statements attempts to delete a
referenced row from the parent table, and when an UPDATE
statement attempts to modify the referenced foreign key
columns in a parent table row, respectively. The following
options are allowed:
RESTRICT: The delete/update operation is not performed. The
statement terminates with a 1451 error (SQLSTATE '2300').
NO ACTION: Synonym for RESTRICT.
CASCADE: The delete/update operation is performed in both
tables.
SET NULL: The update or delete goes ahead in the parent
table, and the corresponding foreign key fields in the child
table are set to NULL. (They must not be defined as NOT NULL
for this to succeed).
SET DEFAULT: This option is currently implemented only for
the PBXT storage engine, which is disabled by default and no
longer maintained. It sets the child table's foreign key
fields to their DEFAULT values when the referenced parent
table key entries are updated or deleted.
 
If either clause is omitted, the default behavior for the
omitted clause is RESTRICT.
 
See Foreign Keys for more information.
 
FULLTEXT
 
Use the FULLTEXT keyword to create full-text indexes.
 
See Full-Text Indexes for more information.
 
SPATIAL
 
Use the SPATIAL keyword to create geometric indexes.
 
See SPATIAL INDEX for more information.
 
Index Options
 
KEY_BLOCK_SIZE Index Option
 
The KEY_BLOCK_SIZE index option is similar to the
KEY_BLOCK_SIZE table option.
 
With the InnoDB storage engine, if you specify a non-zero
value for the KEY_BLOCK_SIZE table option for the whole
table, then the table will implicitly be created with the
ROW_FORMAT table option set to COMPRESSED. However, this
does not happen if you just set the KEY_BLOCK_SIZE index
option for one or more indexes in the table. The InnoDB
storage engine ignores the KEY_BLOCK_SIZE index option.
However, the SHOW CREATE TABLE statement may still report it
for the index.
 
For information about the KEY_BLOCK_SIZE index option, see
the KEY_BLOCK_SIZE table option below.
 
Index Types
 
Each storage engine supports some or all index types. See
Storage Engine Index Types for details on permitted index
types for each storage engine.
 
Different index types are optimized for different kind of
operations:
BTREE is the default type, and normally is the best choice.
It is supported by all storage engines. It can be used to
compare a column's value with a value using the =, >, >=,
0) ,b int check (b> 0), constraint abc check (a>b));
 
If you use the second format and you don't give a name to
the constraint, then the constraint will get a auto
generated name. This is done so that you can later delete
the constraint with ALTER TABLE DROP constraint_name.
 
One can disable all constraint expression checks by setting
the variable check_constraint_checks to OFF. This is useful
for example when loading a table that violates some
constraints that you want to later find and fix in SQL.
 
See CONSTRAINT for more information.
 
Table Options
 
For each individual table you create (or alter), you can set
some table options. The general syntax for setting options
is:
 
  = , [ =  ...]
 
The equal sign is optional.
 
Some options are supported by the server and can be used for
all tables, no matter what storage engine they use; other
options can be specified for all storage engines, but have a
meaning only for some engines. Also, engines can extend
CREATE TABLE with new options.
 
If the IGNORE_BAD_TABLE_OPTIONS SQL_MODE is enabled, wrong
table options generate a warning; otherwise, they generate
an error.

[STORAGE] ENGINE
 
[STORAGE] ENGINE specifies a storage engine for the table.
If this option is not used, the default storage engine is
used instead. That is, the default_storage_engine session option
value if it is set, or the value specified for the
--default-storage-engine mysqld startup options, or InnoDB.
If the specified storage engine is not installed and active,
the default value will be used, unless the
NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION SQL MODE is set (default since
MariaDB 10.0). This is only true for CREATE TABLE, not for
ALTER TABLE. For a list of storage engines that are present
in your server, issue a SHOW ENGINES.
 
AUTO_INCREMENT
 
AUTO_INCREMENT specifies the initial value for the
AUTO_INCREMENT primary key. This works for MyISAM, Aria,
InnoDB/XtraDB, MEMORY, and ARCHIVE tables. You can change
this option with ALTER TABLE, but in that case the new value
must be higher than the highest value which is present in
the AUTO_INCREMENT column. If the storage engine does not
support this option, you can insert (and then delete) a row
having the wanted value - 1 in the AUTO_INCREMENT column.
 
AVG_ROW_LENGTH
 
AVG_ROW_LENGTH is the average rows size. It only applies to
tables using MyISAM and Aria storage engines that have the
ROW_FORMAT table option set to FIXED format.
 
MyISAM uses MAX_ROWS and AVG_ROW_LENGTH to decide the
maximum size of a table (default: 256TB, or the maximum file
size allowed by the system).
 
[DEFAULT] CHARACTER SET/CHARSET
 
[DEFAULT] CHARACTER SET (or [DEFAULT] CHARSET) is used to
set a default character set for the table. This is the
character set used for all columns where an explicit
character set is not specified. If this option is omitted or
DEFAULT is specified, database's default character set will
be used. See Setting Character Sets and Collations for
details on setting the character sets.
 
CHECKSUM/TABLE_CHECKSUM
 
CHECKSUM (or TABLE_CHECKSUM) can be set to 1 to maintain a
live checksum for all table's rows. This makes write
operations slower, but CHECKSUM TABLE will be very fast.
This option is only supported for MyISAM and Aria tables.
 
[DEFAULT] COLLATE
 
[DEFAULT] COLLATE is used to set a default collation for the
table. This is the collation used for all columns where an
explicit character set is not specified. If this option is
omitted or DEFAULT is specified, database's default option
will be used. See Setting Character Sets and Collations for
details on setting the collations
 
COMMENT
 
COMMENT is a comment for the table. Maximum length is 2048
characters (before mariaDB 5.5 it was 60 characters). Also
used to define table parameters when creating a Spider
table.
 
CONNECTION
 
CONNECTION is used to specify a server name or a connection
string for a Spider, CONNECT, Federated or FederatedX table.
 
DATA DIRECTORY/INDEX DIRECTORY
 
DATA DIRECTORY and INDEX DIRECTORY were only supported for
MyISAM and Aria, before MariaDB 5.5. Since 5.5, DATA
DIRECTORY has also been supported by InnoDB if the
innodb_file_per_table server system variable is enabled, but
only in CREATE TABLE, not in ALTER TABLE. So, carefully
choose a path for InnoDB tables at creation time, because it
cannot be changed without dropping and re-creating the
tab�o"�le. These options specify the paths for data files and
index files, respectively. If these options are omitted, the
database's directory will be used to store data files and
index files. Note that these table options do not work for
partitioned tables (use the partition options instead), or
if the server has been invoked with the
--skip-symbolic-links startup option. To avoid the
overwriting of old files with the same name that could be
present in the directories, you can use the
--keep_files_on_create option (an error will be issued if
files already exist). These options are ignored if the
NO_DIR_IN_CREATE SQL_MODE is enabled (useful for replication
slaves). Also note that symbolic links cannot be used for
InnoDB tables.
 
DATA DIRECTORY works by creating symlinks from where the
table would normally have been (inside the datadir) to where
the option specifies. For security reasons, to avoid
bypassing the privilege system, the server does not permit
symlinks inside the datadir. Therefore, DATA DIRECTORY
cannot be used to specify a location inside the datadir. An
attempt to do so will result in an error 1210 (HY000)
Incorrect arguments to DATA DIRECTORY.
 
DELAY_KEY_WRITE
 
DELAY_KEY_WRITE is supported by MyISAM and Aria, and can be
set to 1 to speed up write operations. In that case, when
data are modified, the indexes are not updated until the
table is closed. Writing the changes to the index file
altogether can be much faster. However, note that this
option is applied only if the delay_key_write server
variable is set to 'ON'. If it is 'OFF' the delayed
index writes are always disabled, and if it is 'ALL' the
delayed index writes are always used, disregarding the value
of DELAY_KEY_WRITE.
 
ENCRYPTED
 
The ENCRYPTED table option was added in MariaDB 10.1.4
 
The ENCRYPTED table option can be used to manually set the
encryption status of an InnoDB table. See InnoDB / XtraDB
Encryption for more information.
 
Aria does not currently support the ENCRYPTED table option.
See MDEV-18049 about that.
 
See Data-at-Rest Encryption for more information.
 
ENCRYPTION_KEY_ID
 
The ENCRYPTION_KEY_ID table option was added in MariaDB
10.1.4
 
The ENCRYPTION_KEY_ID table option can be used to manually
set the encryption key of an InnoDB table. See InnoDB /
XtraDB Encryption for more information.
 
Aria does not currently support the ENCRYPTION_KEY_ID table
option. See MDEV-18049 about that.
 
See Data-at-Rest Encryption for more information.
 
IETF_QUOTES
 
The IETF_QUOTES option was added in MariaDB 10.1.8
 
For the CSV storage engine, the IETF_QUOTES option, when set
to YES, enables IETF-compatible parsing of embedded quote
and comma characters. Enabling this option for a table
improves compatibility with other tools that use CSV, but is
not compatible with MySQL CSV tables, or MariaDB CSV tables
created without this option. Disabled by default.
 
INSERT_METHOD
 
INSERT_METHOD is only used with MERGE tables. This option
determines in which underlying table the new rows should be
inserted. If you set it to 'NO' (which is the default) no
new rows can be added to the table (but you will still be
able to perform INSERTs directly against the underlying
tables). FIRST means that the rows are inserted into the
first table, and LAST means that thet are inserted into the
last table.
 
KEY_BLOCK_SIZE
 
KEY_BLOCK_SIZE is used to determine the size of key blocks,
in bytes or kilobytes. However, this value is just a hint,
and the storage engine could modify or ignore it. If
KEY_BLOCK_SIZE is set to 0, the storage engine's default
value will be used.
 
With the InnoDB storage engine, if you specify a non-zero
value for the KEY_BLOCK_SIZE table option for the whole
table, then the table will implicitly be created with the
ROW_FORMAT table option set to COMPRESSED.
 
MIN_ROWS/MAX_ROWS
 
MIN_ROWS and MAX_ROWS let the storage engine know how many
rows you are planning to store as a minimum and as a
maximum. These values will not be used as real limits, but
they help the storage engine to optimize the table. MIN_ROWS
is only used by MEMORY storage engine to decide the minimum
memory that is always allocated. MAX_ROWS is used to decide
the minimum size for indexes.
 
PACK_KEYS
 
PACK_KEYS can be used to determine whether the indexes will
be compressed. Set it to 1 to compress all keys. With a
value of 0, compression will not be used. With the DEFAULT
value, only long strings will be compressed. Uncompressed
keys are faster.
 
PAGE_CHECKSUM
 
PAGE_CHECKSUM is only applicable to Aria tables, and
determines whether indexes and data should use page
checksums for extra safety. 
 
PAGE_COMPRESSED
 
PAGE_COMPRESSED is used to enable InnoDB page compression
for InnoDB tables.
 
PAGE_COMPRESSION_LEVEL
 
PAGE_COMPRESSION_LEVEL is used to set the compression level
for InnoDB page compression for InnoDB tables. The table
must also have the PAGE_COMPRESSED table option set to 1.
 
Valid values for PAGE_COMPRESSION_LEVEL are 1 (the best
speed) through 9 (the best compression), .
 
PASSWORD
 
PASSWORD is unused.
 
RAID_TYPE
 
RAID_TYPE is an obsolete option, as the raid support has
been disabled since MySQL 5.0.
 
ROW_FORMAT
 
The ROW_FORMAT table option specifies the row format for the
data file. Possible values are engine-dependent.
 
Supported MyISAM Row Formats
 
For MyISAM, the supported row formats are: 
FIXED
DYNAMIC
COMPRESSED
 
The COMPRESSED row format can only be set by the myisampack
command line tool.
 
See MyISAM Storage Formats for more information.
 
Supported Aria Row Formats
 
For Aria, the supported row formats are:
PAGE
FIXED
DYNAMIC.
 
See Aria Storage Formats for more information.
 
Supported InnoDB Row Formats
 
For InnoDB/XtraDB, the supported row formats are:
COMPACT
REDUNDANT
COMPRESSED
DYNAMIC.
 
If the ROW_FORMAT table option is set to FIXED for an InnoDB
table, then the server will either return an error or a
warning depending on the value of the innodb_strict_mode
system variable. If the innodb_strict_mode system variable
is set to OFF, then a warning is issued, and MariaDB will
create the table using the default row format for the
specific MariaDB server version. If the innodb_strict_mode
system variable is set to ON, then an error will be raised.
 
See XtraDB/InnoDB Storage Formats for more information.
 
Other Storage Engines and ROW_FORMAT
 
Other storage engines do not support the ROW_FORMAT table
option.
 
SEQUENCE
 
If the table is a sequence, then it will have the SEQUENCE
set to 1.
 
STATS_AUTO_RECALC
 
STATS_AUTO_RECALC is available only in MariaDB 10.0+. It
indicates whether to automatically recalculate persistent
statistics (see STATS_PERSISTENT, below) for an InnoDB
table.
If set to 1, statistics will be recalculated when more than
10% of the data has changed. When set to 0, stats will be
recalculated only when an ANALYZE TABLE is run. If set to
DEFAULT, or left out, the value set by the
innodb_stats_auto_recalc system variable applies. See InnoDB
Persistent Statistics.
 
STATS_PERSISTENT
 
STATS_PERSISTENT is available only in MariaDB 10.0+. It
indicates whether the InnoDB statistics created by ANALYZE
TABLE will remain on disk or not. It can be set to 1 (on
disk), 0 (not on disk, the pre-MariaDB 10 behavior), or
DEFAULT (the same as leaving out the option), in which case
the value set by the innodb_stats_persistent system variable
will apply. Persistent statistics stored on disk allow the
statistics to survive server restarts, and provide better
query plan stability. See InnoDB Persistent Statistics.
 
STATS_SAMPLE_PAGES
 
STATS_SAMPLE_PAGES is available only in MariaDB 10.0+. It
indicates how many pages are used to sample index
statistics. If 0 or DEFAULT, the default value, the
innodb_stats_sample_pages value is used. See InnoDB
Persistent Statistics.
 
TRANSACTIONAL
 
TRANSACTIONAL is only applicable for Aria tables. In future
Aria tables created with this option will be fully
transactional, but currently this provides a form of crash
protection. See Aria Storage Engine for more details.
 
UNION
 
UNION must be specified when you create a MERGE table. This
option contains a comma-separated list of MyISAM tables
which are a�F��

��T
.(FLUSHSyntax
------ 
FLUSH [NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG | LOCAL]
 flush_option [, flush_option] ...
 
or when flushing tables:
 
FLUSH [NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG | LOCAL] TABLES [table_list]
[table_flush_option]
 
where table_list is a list of tables separated by , (comma).
 
Description
----------- 
The FLUSH statement clears or reloads various internal
caches used by
MariaDB. To execute FLUSH, you must have the RELOAD
privilege. See GRANT.
 
The RESET statement is similar to FLUSH. See
RESET.
 
You cannot issue a FLUSH statement from within a stored
function or a trigger. Doing so within a stored procedure is
permitted, as long as it is not called by a stored function
or trigger. See Stored Routine Limitations, Stored Function
Limitations and Trigger Limitations.
 
If a listed table is a view, an error like the following
will be produced:
 
ERROR 1347 (HY000): 'test.v' is not BASE TABLE
 
By default, FLUSH statements are written to the binary log
and will be replicated. The NO_WRITE_TO_BINLOG keyword
(LOCAL is an alias) will ensure the statement is not written
to the binary log. 
 
The different flush options are:
 
Option | Description | 
 
CHANGED_PAGE_BITMAPS | Internal command used for backup
purposes. See the Information Schema CHANGED_PAGE_BITMAPS
Table. | 
 
CLIENT_STATISTICS | Reset client statistics (see SHOW
CLIENT_STATISTICS). | 
 
DES_KEY_FILE | Reloads the DES key file (Specified with the
--des-key-file startup option). | 
 
HOSTS | Flush the hostname cache (used for converting ip to
host names and for unblocking blocked hosts. See
max_connect_errors) | 
 
INDEX_STATISTICS | Reset index statistics (see SHOW
INDEX_STATISTICS). | 
 
[ERROR | ENGINE | GENERAL | SLOW | BINARY | RELAY] LOGS |
Close and reopen the specified log type, or all log types if
none are specified. FLUSH RELAY LOGS [connection-name] can
be used to flush the relay logs for a specific connection.
Only one connection can be specified per FLUSH command. See
Multi-source replication. FLUSH ENGINE LOGS will delete all
unneeded Aria redo logs. | 
 
MASTER | Deprecated option, use RESET MASTER instead. | 
 
PRIVILEGES | Reload all privileges from the privilege tables
in the mysql database. If the server is started with
--skip-grant-table option, this will activate the privilege
tables again. | 
 
QUERY CACHE | Defragment the query cache to better utilize
its memory. If you want to reset the query cache, you can do
it with RESET QUERY CACHE. | 
 
QUERY_RESPONSE_TIME | See the QUERY_RESPONSE_TIME plugin. | 
 
SLAVE | Deprecated option, use RESET SLAVE instead. | 
 
SSL | Used to dynamically reinitialize the server's TLS
context by reloading the files defined by several TLS system
variables. See FLUSH SSL for more information. This command
was first added in MariaDB 10.4.1. | 
 
STATUS | Resets all server status variables that can be
reset to 0. Not all global status variables support this, so
not all global values are reset. See FLUSH STATUS for more
information. | 
 
TABLE | Close tables given as options or all open tables if
no table list was used. From MariaDB 10.4.1, using without
any table list will only close tables not in use, and tables
not locked by the FLUSH TABLES connection. If there are no
locked tables, FLUSH TABLES will be instant and will not
cause any waits, as it no longer waits for tables in use.
When a table list is provided, from MariaDB 10.4.1, the
server will wait for the end of any transactions that are
using the tables. Previously, FLUSH TABLES only waited for
the statements to complete. | 
 
TABLES | Same as FLUSH TABLE. | 
 
TABLES ... FOR EXPORT | For InnoDB tables, flushes table
changes to disk to permit binary table copies while the
server is running. Introduced in MariaDB 10.0.8. See FLUSH
TABLES ... FOR EXPORT for more. | 
 
TABLES WITH READ LOCK | Closes all open tables. New tables
are only allowed to be opened with read locks until an
UNLOCK TABLES is given. | 
 
TABLES WITH READ LOCK AND DISABLE CHECKPOINT | As TABLES
WITH READ LOCK but also disable all checkpoint writes by
transactional table engines. This is useful when doing a
disk snapshot of all tables. | 
 
TABLE_STATISTICS | Reset table statistics (see SHOW
TABLE_STATISTICS). | 
 
USER_RESOURCES | Resets all per hour user resources. This
enables clients that have exhausted their resources to
connect again. | 
 
USER_STATISTICS | Reset user statistics (see SHOW
USER_STATISTICS). | 
 
You can also use the mysqladmin client to flush things. Use
mysqladmin --help to examine what flush commands it
supports.
 
FLUSH STATUS
 
Server status variables can be reset by executing the
following:

FLUSH SSL
 
The FLUSH SSL command was first added in MariaDB 10.4.
 
In MariaDB 10.4 and later, the FLUSH SSL command can be used
to dynamically reinitialize the server's TLS context. This
is most useful if you need to replace a certificate that is
about to expire without restarting the server.
 
This operation is performed by reloading the files defined
by the following TLS system variables:
ssl_cert
ssl_key
ssl_ca
ssl_capath
ssl_crl
ssl_crlpath
 
These TLS system variables are not dynamic, so their values
can not be changed without restarting the server.
 
If you want to dynamically reinitialize the server's TLS
context, then you need to change the certificate and key
files at the relevant paths defined by these TLS system
variables, without actually changing the values of the
variables. See MDEV-19341 for more information.
 
Reducing Memory Usage
 
To flush some of the global caches that take up memory, you
could execute the following command:
 
FLUSH LOCAL HOSTS,
 QUERY CACHE, 
 TABLE_STATISTICS, 
 INDEX_STATISTICS,

JKILL [CONNECTION | QUERY]Syntax
------ 
KILL [HARD | SOFT] [CONNECTION | QUERY [ID] ] [thread_id |
USER user_name | query_id]
 
MariaDB 5.3.2
 
The options HARD | SOFT and USER username were introduced in
MariaDB 5.3.2
 
MariaDB 10.0.5
 
KILL QUERY ID query_id, which permits killing a query by
query id rather than thread id, was introduced in MariaDB
10.0.5.
 
Description
----------- 
Each connection to mysqld runs in a separate thread. You can
see which threads
are running with the SHOW PROCESSLIST statement and kill a
thread with the KILL thread_id statement. 
KILL allows the optional CONNECTION or
QUERY modifier:
KILL CONNECTION is the same as KILL with no
 modifier: It terminates the connection associated with the
given thread or query id.
KILL QUERY terminates the statement that the connection
thread_id is
 currently executing, but leaves the connection itself
intact.
KILL QUERY ID (introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5) terminates the
query by query_id, leaving the connection intact.
 
If a connection is terminated that has an active
transaction, the transaction will be rolled back. If only a
query is killed, the current transaction will stay active.
See also idle_transaction_timeout.
 
If you have the PROCESS privilege, you can see all threads.
If
you have the SUPER privilege, you can kill all threads and
statements. Otherwise, you can see and kill only your own
threads and
statements.
 
Killing queries that repair or create indexes on MyISAM and
Aria tables may result in corrupted tables. Use the SOFT
option to avoid this!
 
The HARD option (default) kills a command as soon as
possible. If you use
SOFT, then critical operations that may leave a table in an
inconsistent state will not be interrupted. Such operations
include REPAIR and INDEX creation for MyISAM and Aria tables
(REPAIR TABLE, OPTIMIZE TABLE).
 
KILL ... USER username will kill all connections/queries for
a
given user. USER can be specified one of the following ways:
username (Kill without regard to hostname)
username@hostname
CURRENT_USER or CURRENT_USER()
 
If you specify a thread id and that thread does not exist,
you get the following error:
 
ERROR 1094 (HY000): Unknown thread id: 
 
If you specify a query id that doesn't exist, you get the
following error:
 
ERROR 1957 (HY000): Unknown query id: 
 
However, if you specify a user name, no error is issued for
non-connected (or even non-existing) users. To check if the
connection/query has been killed, you can use the
ROW_COUNT() function.
 
A client whose connection is killed receives the following
error:
 
ERROR 1317 (70100): Query execution was interrupted
 
To obtain a list of existing sessions, use the SHOW
PROCESSLIST statement or query the Information Schema
PROCESSLIST table.
 
Note: You cannot use KILL with the Embedded MySQL Server
library because the embedded server merely runs inside the
threads of the host
application. It does not create any connection threads of
its own.
 
Note: You can also use 
mysqladmin kill thread_id [,thread_id...]
to kill connections. To get a list of running queries,
use mysqladmin processlist. See mysqladmin.
 
Percona Toolkit contains a program, pt-kill that can be used
to automatically kill connections that match certain
criteria. For example, it can be used to terminate idle
connections, or connections that have been busy for more
than 60 seconds.

�(RESETSyntax
------ 
RESET reset_option [, reset_option] ...
 
Description
----------- 
The RESET statement is used to clear the state of various
server
operations. You must have the RELOAD privilege to execute
RESET.
 
RESET acts as a stronger version of the FLUSH statement.
 
The different RESET options are:
 
Option | Description | 
 
SLAVE ["connection_name"] [ALL] | Deletes all relay logs
from the slave and reset the replication position in the
master binary log. | 
 
MASTER | Deletes all old binary logs, makes the binary index
file (--log-bin-index) empty and creates a new binary log
file. This is useful when you want to reset the master to an
initial state. If you want to just delete old, not used
binary logs, you should use the PURGE BINARY LOGS command. |

 
QUERY CACHE | Removes all queries from the query cache. See
also FLUSH QUERY CACHE. |

If the syntax for a given SHOW statement includes a
LIKE 'pattern' part, 'pattern' is a
string that can contain the SQL "%" and
"_" wildcard characters. The pattern is useful for
restricting statement output to matching values.
 
Several SHOW statements also accept a
WHERE clause that provides more flexibility in specifying
which rows to display. See Extended Show.

 [SQL SECURITY { DEFINER | INVOKER }]
 VIEW [IF NOT EXISTS] view_name [(column_list)]
 AS select_statement
 [WITH [CASCADED | LOCAL] CHECK OPTION]
 
Description
----------- 
The CREATE VIEW statement creates a new view, or replaces an
existing
one if the OR REPLACE clause is given. If the view does not
exist, CREATE OR
REPLACE VIEW is the same as CREATE VIEW. If the view does
exist, CREATE OR
REPLACE VIEW is the same as ALTER VIEW.
 
The select_statement is a SELECT statement that provides the
definition of
the view. (When you select from the view, you select in
effect using the SELECT
statement.) select_statement can select from base tables or
other views.
 
The view definition is "frozen" at creation time, so
changes to the underlying
tables afterwards do not affect the view definition. For
example, if a view is
defined as SELECT * on a table, new columns added to the
table later do not
become part of the view. A SHOW CREATE VIEW shows that
such queries are rewritten and column names are included in
the view
definition.
 
The view definition must be a query that does not return
errors at view
creation times. However, the base tables used by the views
might be altered
later and the query may not be valid anymore. In this case,
querying the view
will result in an error. CHECK TABLE helps in finding this
kind
of problems.
 
The ALGORITHM clause affects how MariaDB processes the
view. The DEFINER and SQL SECURITY clauses specify the
security context to be
used when checking access privileges at view invocation
time. The WITH CHECK
OPTION clause can be given to constrain inserts or updates
to rows in tables
referenced by the view. These clauses are described later in
this section.
 
The CREATE VIEW statement requires the CREATE VIEW privilege
for the
view, and some privilege for each column selected by the
SELECT
statement. For columns used elsewhere in the SELECT
statement you must
have the SELECT privilege. If the OR REPLACE clause is
present, you
must also have the DROP privilege for the view.
 
A view belongs to a database. By default, a new view is
created in the
default database. To create the view explicitly in a given
database,
specify the name as db_name.view_name when you create it.
 
CREATE VIEW test.v AS SELECT * FROM t;
 
Base tables and views share the same namespace within a
database, so a
database cannot contain a base table and a view that have
the same
name.
 
Views must have unique column names with no duplicates, just
like base
tables. By default, the names of the columns retrieved by
the SELECT
statement are used for the view column names. To define
explicit names
for the view columns, the optional column_list clause can be
given as
a list of comma-separated identifiers. The number of names
in
column_list must be the same as the number of columns
retrieved by the
SELECT statement.
 
MySQL until 5.1.28
 
Prior to MySQL 5.1.29, When you modify an existing view, the
current view definition is backed up and saved. It is stored
in that
table's database directory, in a subdirectory named arc.
The backup
file for a view v is named v.frm-00001. If you alter the
view again,
the next backup is named v.frm-00002. The three latest view
backup
definitions are stored. Backed up view definitions are not
preserved
by mysqldump, or any other such programs, but you can retain
them
using a file copy operation. However, they are not needed
for anything
but to provide you with a backup of your previous view
definition. It
is safe to remove these backup definitions, but only while
mysqld is
not running. If you delete the arc subdirectory or its files
while
mysqld is running, you will receive an error the next time
you try to
alter the view: 
 
MariaDB [test]> ALTER VIEW v AS SELECT * FROM t; 
ERROR 6 (HY000): Error on delete of
'.\test\arc/v.frm-0004' (Errcode: 2)
 
Columns retrieved by the SELECT statement can be simple
references to
table columns. They can also be expressions that use
functions,
constant values, operators, and so forth.
 
Unqualified table or view names in the SELECT statement are
interpreted with respect to the default database. A view can
refer to
tables or views in other databases by qualifying the table
or view
name with the proper database name.
 
A view can be created from many kinds of SELECT statements.
It can
refer to base tables or other views. It can use joins,
UNION, and
subqueries. The SELECT need not even refer to any tables.
The
following example defines a view that selects two columns
from another
table, as well as an expression calculated from those
columns:
 
CREATE TABLE t (qty INT, price INT);
 
INSERT INTO t VALUES(3, 50);
 
CREATE VIEW v AS SELECT qty, price, qty*price AS value FROM
t;
 
SELECT * FROM v;
+------+-------+-------+
| qty | price | value |
+------+-------+-------+
| 3 | 50 | 150 |
+------+-------+-------+
 
A view definition is subject to the following restrictions:
The SELECT statement cannot contain a subquery in the FROM
clause.
The SELECT statement cannot refer to system or user
variables.
Within a stored program, the definition cannot refer to
program parameters or local variables.
The SELECT statement cannot refer to prepared statement
parameters.
Any table or view referred to in the definition must exist.
However, after a view has been created, it is possible to
drop a table or view that the definition refers to. In this
case, use of the view results in an error. To check a view
definition for problems of this kind, use the CHECK TABLE
statement.
The definition cannot refer to a TEMPORARY table, and you
cannot create a TEMPORARY view.
Any tables named in the view definition must exist at
definition time.
You cannot associate a trigger with a view.
For valid identifiers to use as view names, see Identifier
Names.
 
ORDER BY is allowed in a view definition, but it is ignored
if you
select from a view using a statement that has its own ORDER
BY.
 
For other options or clauses in the definition, they are
added to the
options or clauses of the statement that references the
view, but the
effect is undefined. For example, if a view definition
includes a
LIMIT clause, and you select from the view using a statement
that has
its own LIMIT clause, it is undefined which limit applies.
This same
principle applies to options such as ALL, DISTINCT, or
SQL_SMALL_RESULT that follow the SELECT keyword, and to
clauses such
as INTO, FOR UPDATE, and LOCK IN SHARE MODE.
 
The PROCEDURE clause cannot be used in a view definition,
and it cannot be used if a view is referenced in the FROM
clause.
 
If you create a view and then change the query processing
environment
by changing system variables, that may affect the results
that you get
from the view:
 
CREATE VIEW v (mycol) AS SELECT 'abc';
 
SET sql_mode = '';
 
SELECT "mycol" FROM v;
+-------+
| mycol |
+-------+
| mycol | 
+-------+
 
SET sql_mode = 'ANSI_QUOTES';
 
SELECT "mycol" FROM v;
+-------+
| mycol |
+-------+
| abc | 
+-------+
 
The DEFINER and SQL SECURITY clauses determine which MariaDB
account to
use when checking access privileges for the view when a
statement is
executed that references the view. They were added in MySQL
5.1.2.
The legal SQL SECURITY characteristic values are DEFINER and
INVOKER.
These indicate that the required privileges must be held by
the user
who defined or invoked the view, respectively. The default
SQL
SECURITY value is DEFINER.
 
If a user value is given for the DEFINER clause, it should
be a MariaDB
account in 'user_name'@'host_name' format (the same
format used in the
GRANT statement). The user_name and host_name values both
are
required. The definer can also be given as CURRENT_USER or
CURRENT_USER(). The default DEFINER value is the user who
executes the
CREATE VIEW statement. This is the same as specifying
DEFINER =
CURRENT_USER explicitly.
 
If you specify the DEFINER clause, these rules determine the
legal
DEFINER user values:
If you do not have the SUPER privilege, the only legal user
value is your own account, either specified literally or by
using CUR_^(�RENT_USER. You cannot set the definer to some other
account.
If you have the SUPER privilege, you can specify any
syntactically legal account name. If the account does not
actually exist, a warning is generated.
If the SQL SECURITY value is DEFINER but the definer account
does not exist when the view is referenced, an error occurs.
 
Within a view definition, CURRENT_USER returns the view's
DEFINER
value by default. Before MySQL 5.1.12, and for views
defined with the SQL SECURITY INVOKER characteristic,
CURRENT_USER
returns the account for the view's invoker. For information
about user
auditing within views, see
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/account-activity-auditing.html.
 
Within a stored routine that is defined with the SQL
SECURITY DEFINER
characteristic, CURRENT_USER returns the routine's DEFINER
value. This
also affects a view defined within such a program, if the
view
definition contains a DEFINER value of CURRENT_USER.
 
View privileges are checked like this:
At view definition time, the view creator must have the
privileges needed to use the top-level objects accessed by
the view. For example, if the view definition refers to
table columns, the creator must have privileges for the
columns, as described previously. If the definition refers
to a stored function, only the privileges needed to invoke
the function can be checked. The privileges required when
the function runs can be checked only as it executes: For
different invocations of the function, different execution
paths within the function might be taken.
When a view is referenced, privileges for objects accessed
by the view are checked against the privileges held by the
view creator or invoker, depending on whether the SQL
SECURITY characteristic is DEFINER or INVOKER, respectively.
If reference to a view causes execution of a stored
function, privilege checking for statements executed within
the function depend on whether the function is defined with
a SQL SECURITY characteristic of DEFINER or INVOKER. If the
security characteristic is DEFINER, the function runs with
the privileges of its creator. If the characteristic is
INVOKER, the function runs with the privileges determined by
the view's SQL SECURITY characteristic.
 
MySQL until 5.1.1
 
Prior to MySQL 5.1.2 (before the DEFINER and SQL SECURITY
clauses were
implemented), privileges required for objects used in a view
are
checked at view creation time.
 
Example: A view might depend on a stored function, and that
function
might invoke other stored routines. For example, the
following view
invokes a stored function f():
 
CREATE VIEW v AS SELECT * FROM t WHERE t.id = f(t.name);
 
Suppose that f() contains a statement such as this:
 
IF name IS NULL then
 CALL p1();
ELSE
 CALL p2();
END IF;
 
The privileges required for executing statements within f()
need to be
checked when f() executes. This might mean that privileges
are needed
for p1() or p2(), depending on the execution path within
f(). Those
privileges must be checked at runtime, and the user who must
possess
the privileges is determined by the SQL SECURITY values of
the view v
and the function f().
 
The DEFINER and SQL SECURITY clauses for views are
extensions to
standard SQL. In standard SQL, views are handled using the
rules for
SQL SECURITY INVOKER.
 
If you invoke a view that was created before MySQL 5.1.2, it
is
treated as though it was created with a SQL SECURITY DEFINER
clause
and with a DEFINER value that is the same as your account.
However,
because the actual definer is unknown, MySQL issues a
warning. To make
the warning go away, it is sufficient to re-create the view
so that
the view definition includes a DEFINER clause.
 
The optional ALGORITHM clause is an extension to standard
SQL. It
affects how MariaDB processes the view. ALGORITHM takes
three values:
MERGE, TEMPTABLE, or UNDEFINED. The default algorithm is
UNDEFINED if
no ALGORITHM clause is present. See View Algorithms for more
information.
 
Some views are updatable. That is, you can use them in
statements such
as UPDATE, DELETE, or INSERT to update the contents of the
underlying
table. For a view to be updatable, there must be a
one-to-one
relationship between the rows in the view and the rows in
the
underlying table. There are also certain other constructs
that make a
view non-updatable. See Inserting and Updating with Views.
 
WITH CHECK OPTION
 
The WITH CHECK OPTION clause can be given for an updatable
view to
prevent inserts or updates to rows except those for which
the WHERE
clause in the select_statement is true.
 
In a WITH CHECK OPTION clause for an updatable view, the
LOCAL and
CASCADED keywords determine the scope of check testing when
the view
is defined in terms of another view. The LOCAL keyword
restricts the
CHECK OPTION only to the view being defined. CASCADED causes
the
checks for underlying views to be evaluated as well. When
neither
keyword is given, the default is CASCADED.
 
For more information about updatable views and the WITH
CHECK OPTION
clause, see
Inserting and Updating with Views.
 
IF NOT EXISTS
 
The IF NOT EXISTS clause was added in MariaDB 10.1.3
 
When the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a
warning instead of an error if the specified view already
exists. Cannot be used together with the OR REPLACE clause.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE t (a INT, b INT) ENGINE = InnoDB;
 
INSERT INTO t VALUES (1,1), (2,2), (3,3);
 
CREATE VIEW v AS SELECT a, a*2 AS a2 FROM t;
 
SELECT * FROM v;
 
+------+------+
| a | a2 |
+------+------+
| 1 | 2 |
| 2 | 4 |
| 3 | 6 |
+------+------+
 
OR REPLACE and IF NOT EXISTS:
 
CREATE VIEW v AS SELECT a, a*2 AS a2 FROM t;
 
ERROR 1050 (42S01): Table 'v' already exists
 
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW v AS SELECT a, a*2 AS a2 FROM t;
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.04 sec)
 
CREATE VIEW IF NOT EXISTS v AS SELECT a, a*2 AS a2 FROM t;

&SETSyntax
------ 
SET variable_assignment [, variable_assignment] ...
 
variable_assignment:
 user_var_name = expr
 | [GLOBAL | SESSION] system_var_name = expr
 | [@@global. | @@session. | @@]system_var_name = expr
 
One can also set a user variable in any expression with this
syntax:
 
user_var_name:= expr
 
Description
----------- 
The SET statement assigns values to different types of
variables that affect the operation of the server or your
client. Older
versions of MySQL employed SET OPTION, but this syntax was
deprecated in favor of SET without OPTION, and was removed
in MariaDB 10.0.
 
Changing a system variable by using the SET statement does
not make the change permanently. To do so, the change must
be made in a configuration file.
 
For setting variables on a per-query basis (from MariaDB
10.1.2), see SET STATEMENT.
 
See SHOW VARIABLES for documentation on viewing server
system variables.
 
See Server System Variables for a list of all the system
variables.
 
GLOBAL / SESSION
 
When setting a system variable, the scope can be specified
as either GLOBAL or SESSION.
 
A global variable change affects all new sessions. It does
not affect any currently open sessions, including the one
that made the change. 
 
A session variable change affects the current session only.
 
If the variable has a session value, not specifying either
GLOBAL or SESSION will be the same as specifying SESSION. If
the variable only has a global value, not specifying GLOBAL
or SESSION will apply to the change to the global value.
 
DEFAULT
 
Setting a global variable to DEFAULT will restore it to the
server default, and setting a session variable to DEFAULT
will restore it to the current global value.
 
Examples
-------- 
innodb_sync_spin_loops is a global variable.
skip_parallel_replication is a session variable.
max_error_count is both global and session.
 
SELECT VARIABLE_NAME, SESSION_VALUE, GLOBAL_VALUE FROM
 INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SYSTEM_VARIABLES WHERE 
 VARIABLE_NAME LIKE 'max_error_count' OR

2'DROP TABLESPACEThe DROP TABLESPACE statement is not supported by MariaDB.
It was originally inherited from MySQL NDB Cluster. In MySQL
5.7 and later, the statement is also supported for InnoDB.
However, MariaDB has chosen not to include that specific
feature. See MDEV-19294 for more information.

/SHOW AUTHORSSyntax
------ 
SHOW AUTHORS
 
Description
----------- 
The SHOW AUTHORS statement displays information about the
people who work on MariaDB. For each author, it displays
Name, Location, and
Comment values. All columns are encoded as latin1.
 
In MariaDB 5.5 this is in somewhat random order.
 
In MariaDB 10.0.5 and later you have:
First the active people in MariaDB are listed.
Then the active people in MySQL.
Last the people that has contributed to MariaDB/MySQL in the
past.
 
The order is somewhat related to importance of the
contribution given to the MariaDB project, but this is not
100% accurate. There is still room for improvements and
debate...

%9SHOW CLIENT_STATISTICSMariaDB 5.2 introduced the User Statistics feature.
 
Syntax
------ 
SHOW CLIENT_STATISTICS
 
Description
----------- 
The SHOW CLIENT_STATISTICS statement was introduced in
MariaDB 5.2 as part of the User Statistics feature. It was
removed as a separate statement in MariaDB 10.1.1, but
effectively replaced by the generic SHOW
information_schema_table statement. The
information_schema.CLIENT_STATISTICS table holds statistics
about client connections.
 
The userstat system variable must be set to 1 to activate
this feature. See the User Statistics and
information_schema.CLIENT_STATISTICS articles for more
information.

�/SHOW COLUMNSSyntax
------ 
SHOW [FULL] {COLUMNS | FIELDS} FROM tbl_name [FROM db_name]
 [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
SHOW COLUMNS displays information about the columns in a
given table. It also works for views. The LIKE clause, if
present on its own, indicates which column names to match.
The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be given to select rows using
more general conditions, as discussed in Extended SHOW.
 
If the data types differ from what you expect them to be
based on a
CREATE TABLE statement, note that MariaDB sometimes changes
data types when you create or alter a table. The conditions
under which this
occurs are described in the Silent Column Changes article.
 
The FULL keyword causes the output to include the column
collation and comments, as well as the privileges you have
for each column.
 
You can use db_name.tbl_name as an alternative to the
tbl_name FROM db_name syntax. In other words, these two
statements are equivalent:
 
SHOW COLUMNS FROM mytable FROM mydb;
SHOW COLUMNS FROM mydb.mytable;
 
SHOW COLUMNS displays the following values for each table
column:
 
Field indicates the column name.
 
Type indicates the column data type.
 
Collation indicates the collation for non-binary string
columns, or
NULL for other columns. This value is displayed only if you
use the
FULL keyword.
 
The Null field contains YES if NULL values can be stored in
the column,
NO if not.
 
The Key field indicates whether the column is indexed:
If Key is empty, the column either is not indexed or is
indexed only as a
 secondary column in a multiple-column, non-unique index.
If Key is PRI, the column is a PRIMARY KEY or
 is one of the columns in a multiple-column PRIMARY KEY.
If Key is UNI, the column is the first column of a
unique-valued
 index that cannot contain NULL values.
If Key is MUL, multiple occurrences of a given value are
allowed
 within the column. The column is the first column of a
non-unique index or a
 unique-valued index that can contain NULL values.
 
If more than one of the Key values applies to a given column
of a
table, Key displays the one with the highest priority, in
the order
PRI, UNI, MUL.
 
A UNIQUE index may be displayed as PRI if
it cannot contain NULL values and there is no
PRIMARY KEY in the table. A UNIQUE index
may display as MUL if several columns form a composite
UNIQUE index; although the combination of the columns is
unique, each column can still hold multiple occurrences of a
given value.
 
The Default field indicates the default value that is
assigned to the
column.
 
The Extra field contains any additional information that is
available about a given column.
 
Value | Description | 
 
AUTO_INCREMENT | The column was created with the
AUTO_INCREMENT keyword. | 
 
PERSISTENT | The column was created with the PERSISTENT
keyword. (New in 5.3) | 
 
VIRTUAL | The column was created with the VIRTUAL keyword.
(New in 5.3) | 
 
on update CURRENT_TIMESTAMP | The column is a TIMESTAMP
column that is automatically updated on INSERT and UPDATE. |

 
Privileges indicates the privileges you have for the column.
This
value is displayed only if you use the FULL keyword.
 
Comment indicates any comment the column has. This value is
displayed
only if you use the FULL keyword.
 
SHOW FIELDS is a synonym for
SHOW COLUMNS. Also DESCRIBE and EXPLAIN can be used as
shortcuts.
 
You can also list a table's columns with: 
 
mysqlshow db_name tbl_name
 
See the mysqlshow command for more details.
 
The DESCRIBE statement provides information similar to SHOW
COLUMNS. The information_schema.COLUMNS table provides
similar, but more complete, information.
 
The SHOW CREATE TABLE, SHOW TABLE STATUS, and SHOW INDEX
statements also provide information about tables.
 
Examples
-------- 
SHOW COLUMNS FROM city;
+------------+----------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+------------+----------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Id | int(11) | NO | PRI | NULL | auto_increment |

Syntax
------ 
COLUMN_CHECK(dyncol_blob);
 
Description
----------- 
Check if dyncol_blob is a valid packed dynamic columns blob.
Return value of 1 means the blob is valid, return value of 0
means it is not.
 
Rationale:
Normally, one works with valid dynamic column blobs.
Functions like COLUMN_CREATE, COLUMN_ADD, COLUMN_DELETE
always return valid dynamic column blobs. However, if a
dynamic column blob is accidentally truncated, or transcoded
from one character set to another, it will be corrupted.
This function can be used to check if a value in a blob
field is a valid dynamic column blob.

Syntax
------ 
COLUMN_DELETE(dyncol_blob, column_nr, column_nr...);
COLUMN_DELETE(dyncol_blob, column_name, column_name...);
 
Description
----------- 
Deletes a dynamic column with the specified name. Multiple
names can be given. The return value is a dynamic column
blob after the modification.

----------- 
Checks if a column with name column_name exists in
dyncol_blob. If yes, return 1, otherwise return 0. See
dynamic columns for more information.

&,COLUMN_LISTThe Dynamic columns feature was introduced in MariaDB 5.3.
 
Syntax
------ 
COLUMN_LIST(dyncol_blob);
 
Description
----------- 
Since MariaDB 10.0.1, this function returns a
comma-separated list of column names. The names are quoted
with backticks.
 
Before MariaDB 10.0.1, it returned a comma-separated list of
column numbers, not names.

------ 
SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE proc_name
 
Description
----------- 
This statement is a MariaDB extension. It returns the exact
string that
can be used to re-create the named stored procedure, as well
as the SQL_MODE that was used when the trigger has been
created and the character set used by the connection.. A
similar
statement, SHOW CREATE FUNCTION,
displays information about stored functions.
 
Both statements require that you are the owner of the
routine or have the SELECT privilege on the mysql.proc
table. When neither is true, the statements display NULL for
the Create Procedure or Create Function field.
 
Warning Users with SELECT privileges on mysql.proc or USAGE
privileges on *.* can view the text of routines, even when
they do not have privileges for the function or procedure
itself.
 
The output of these statements is unreliably affected by the
sql_quote_show_create server system variable - see
http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=12719

Syntax
------ 
SHOW CREATE SEQUENCE sequence_name;
 
Description
----------- 
Shows the CREATE SEQUENCE statement that created the given

�4SHOW CREATE TABLESyntax
------ 
SHOW CREATE TABLE tbl_name
 
Description
----------- 
Shows the CREATE TABLE statement that created the given
table. The statement requires the SELECT privilege for the
table. This statement also works with views and SEQUENCE.
 
SHOW CREATE TABLE quotes table and
column names according to the value of the
sql_quote_show_create server system variable.
 
MariaDB and MySQL-specific table options, column options,
and index options are not included in the output of this
statement if the NO_TABLE_OPTIONS, NO_FIELD_OPTIONS and
NO_KEY_OPTIONS SQL_MODE flags are used.
 
Invalid table options, column options and index options are
normally commented out (note, that it is possible to create
a table with invalid options, by altering a table of a
different engine, where these options were valid). To have
them uncommented, enable IGNORE_BAD_TABLE_OPTIONS SQL_MODE.
Remember that replaying a CREATE TABLE statement with
uncommented invalid options will fail with an error, unless
IGNORE_BAD_TABLE_OPTIONS SQL_MODE is in effect.
 
Note that SHOW CREATE TABLE is not meant to provide metadata
about a table. It provides information about how the table
was declared, but the real table structure could differ a
bit. For example, if an index has been declared as HASH, the
CREATE TABLE statement returned by SHOW CREATE TABLE will
declare that index as HASH; however, it is possible that the
index is in fact a BTREE, because the storage engine does
not support HASH.
 
MariaDB 10.2.1 permits TEXT and BLOB data types to be
assigned a DEFAULT value. As a result, from MariaDB 10.2.1,
SHOW CREATE TABLE will append a DEFAULT NULL to nullable
TEXT or BLOB fields if no specific default is provided. 
 
From MariaDB 10.2.2, numbers are no longer quoted in the
DEFAULT clause in SHOW CREATE statement. Previously, MariaDB
quoted numbers. 
 
Examples
-------- 
SHOW CREATE TABLE t\G
*************************** 1. row
***************************
 Table: t
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `t` (
 `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 `s` char(60) DEFAULT NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1
 
With sql_quote_show_create off:
 
SHOW CREATE TABLE t\G
*************************** 1. row
***************************
 Table: t
Create Table: CREATE TABLE t (
 id int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 s char(60) DEFAULT NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (id)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1
 
Unquoted numeric DEFAULTs, from MariaDB 10.2.2:
 
CREATE TABLE td (link TINYINT DEFAULT 1);
 
SHOW CREATE TABLE td\G
*************************** 1. row
***************************
 Table: td
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `td` (
 `link` tinyint(4) DEFAULT 1
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1
 
Quoted numeric DEFAULTs, until MariaDB 10.2.1:
 
CREATE TABLE td (link TINYINT DEFAULT 1);
 
SHOW CREATE TABLE td\G
*************************** 1. row
***************************
 Table: td
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `td` (
 `link` tinyint(4) DEFAULT '1'

SHOW CREATE TRIGGER trigger_name
 
Description
----------- 
This statement shows a CREATE TRIGGER
statement that creates the given trigger, as well as the
SQL_MODE that was used when the trigger has been created and

J1SHOW DATABASESSyntax
------ 
SHOW {DATABASES | SCHEMAS}
 [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
SHOW DATABASES lists the databases on the MariaDB server
host.
SHOW SCHEMAS is a synonym for 
SHOW DATABASES. The LIKE clause, if
present on its own, indicates which database names to match.
The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be given to select rows using
more general conditions, as discussed in Extended SHOW.
 
You see only those databases for which you have some kind of
privilege, unless you have the global 
SHOW DATABASES privilege. You
can also get this list using the mysqlshow command.
 
If the server was started with the --skip-show-database
option, you cannot use this statement at all unless you have
the
SHOW DATABASES privilege.
 
Example
 
SHOW DATABASES;
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql |
| performance_schema |
| test |
+--------------------+
 
SHOW DATABASES LIKE 'm%';

/SHOW ENGINESSyntax
------ 
SHOW [STORAGE] ENGINES
 
Description
----------- 
SHOW ENGINES displays status information about the server's
storage engines. This is particularly useful for checking
whether a storage
engine is supported, or to see what the default engine is. 
SHOW TABLE TYPES is a deprecated synonym.
 
The information_schema.ENGINES table provides the same
information.
 
Since storage engines are plugins, different information
about them is also shown in the information_schema.PLUGINS
table and by the SHOW PLUGINS statement.
 
Note that both MySQL's InnoDB and Percona's XtraDB
replacement are labeled as InnoDB. However, if XtraDB is in
use, it will be specified in the COMMENT field. See XtraDB
and InnoDB. The same applies to FederatedX.
 
The output consists of the following columns:
Engine indicates the engine's name.
Support indicates whether the engine is installed, and
whether it is the default engine for the current session.
Comment is a brief description.
Transactions, XA and Savepoints indicate whether
transactions, XA transactions and transaction savepoints are
supported by the engine.

�.SHOW ENGINESyntax
------ 
SHOW ENGINE engine_name {STATUS | MUTEX}
 
Description
----------- 
SHOW ENGINE displays operational information about a storage
engine. The following statements currently are supported:
 
SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS
SHOW ENGINE INNODB MUTEX
SHOW ENGINE PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA STATUS
 
If the Sphinx Storage Engine is installed, the following is
also supported:
 
SHOW ENGINE SPHINX STATUS
 
See SHOW ENGINE SPHINX STATUS.
 
Older (and now removed) synonyms were SHOW INNODB STATUS
for SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS and 
SHOW MUTEX STATUS for 
SHOW ENGINE INNODB MUTEX.
 
SHOW ENGINE BDB LOGS formerly displayed status information
about BDB log files. It was deprecated in MySQL 5.1.12 and
removed in MariaDB and MySQL 5.5, so now produces an error.
 
SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS
 
SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS displays extensive information
from the standard InnoDB Monitor about the state of the
InnoDB storage engine.
See SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS for more.
 
SHOW ENGINE INNODB MUTEX
 
SHOW ENGINE INNODB MUTEX displays InnoDB mutex statistics.
 
The statement displays the following output fields:
Type: Always InnoDB.
Name: The source file where the mutex is implemented, and
the line number
 in the file where the mutex is created. The line number is
dependent on the MariaDB version.
Status: This field displays the following values if
UNIV_DEBUG was defined at compilation time (for example, in
include/univ.h in the InnoDB part of the source tree). Only
the os_waits value is displayed if UNIV_DEBUG was not
defined. Without UNIV_DEBUG, the information on which the
output is based is insufficient to distinguish regular
mutexes and mutexes that protect
 rw-locks (which allow multiple readers or a single writer).
Consequently, the
 output may appear to contain multiple rows for the same
mutex.
count indicates how many times the mutex was requested.
spin_waits indicates how many times the spinlock had to run.
spin_rounds indicates the number of spinlock rounds.
(spin_rounds divided by
 spin_waits provides the average round count.)
os_waits indicates the number of operating system waits.
This occurs when
 the spinlock did not work (the mutex was not locked during
the spinlock and
 it was necessary to yield to the operating system and
wait).
os_yields indicates the number of times a the thread trying
to lock a mutex
 gave up its timeslice and yielded to the operating system
(on the
 presumption that allowing other threads to run will free
the mutex so that
 it can be locked).
os_wait_times indicates the amount of time (in ms) spent in
operating system
 waits, if the timed_mutexes system variable is 1 (ON). If
timed_mutexes is 0
 (OFF), timing is disabled, so os_wait_times is 0.
timed_mutexes is off by
 default.
 
Information from this statement can be used to diagnose
system problems. For
example, large values of spin_waits and spin_rounds may
indicate scalability
problems.
 
The information_schema.INNODB_MUTEXES table provides similar
information.
 
SHOW ENGINE PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA STATUS
 
This statement shows how much memory is used for
performance_schema tables and internal buffers.
 
The output contains the following fields:
Type: Always performance_schema.
Name: The name of a table, the name of an internal buffer,
or the performance_schema word, followed by a dot and an
attribute. Internal buffers names are enclosed by
parenthesis. performance_schema means that the attribute
refers to the whole database (it is a total). 
Status: The value for the attribute.
 
The following attributes are shown, in this order, for all
tables:
row_size: The memory used for an individual record. This
value will never change.
row_count: The number of rows in the table or buffer. For
some tables, this value depends on a server system variable.
memory: For tables and performance_schema, this is the
result of row_size * row_count.
 
For internal buffers, the attributes are:
count
size

.SHOW ERRORSSyntax
------ 
SHOW ERRORS [LIMIT [offset,] row_count]
SHOW ERRORS [LIMIT row_count OFFSET offset]
SHOW COUNT(*) ERRORS
 
Description
----------- 
This statement is similar to SHOW WARNINGS, except that
instead of
displaying errors, warnings, and notes, it displays only
errors.
 
The LIMIT clause has the same syntax as for the
SELECT statement.
 
The SHOW COUNT(*) ERRORS statement displays the number of
errors. You can also retrieve this number from the
error_count variable.
 
SHOW COUNT(*) ERRORS;
SELECT @@error_count;
 
The value of error_count might be greater than the number of
messages displayed by SHOW WARNINGS if the max_error_count
system variable is set so low that not all messages are
stored.
 
For a list of MariaDB error codes, see MariaDB Error Codes.

�Br
G<SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUSSHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS is a specific form of the SHOW
ENGINE statement that displays the InnoDB Monitor output,
which is extensive InnoDB information which can be useful in
diagnosing problems.
 
The following sections are displayed
Status: Shows the timestamp, monitor name and the number of
seconds, or the elapsed time between the current time and
the time the InnoDB Monitor output was last displayed. The
per-second averages are based upon this time.
BACKGROUND THREAD: srv_master_thread lines show work
performed by the main background thread.
SEMAPHORES: Threads waiting for a semaphore and stats on how
the number of times threads have needed a spin or a wait on
a mutex or rw-lock semaphore. If this number of threads is
large, there may be I/O or contention issues. Reducing the
size of the innodb_thread_concurrency system variable may
help if contention is related to thread scheduling. Spin
rounds per wait shows the number of spinlock rounds per OS
wait for a mutex. 
LATEST FOREIGN KEY ERROR: Only shown if there has been a
foreign key constraint error, it displays the failed
statement and information about the constraint and the
related tables.
LATEST DETECTED DEADLOCK: Only shown if there has been a
deadlock, it displays the transactions involved in the
deadlock and the statements being executed, held and
required locked and the transaction rolled back to.
TRANSACTIONS: The output of this section can help identify
lock contention, as well as reasons for the deadlocks.
FILE I/O: InnoDB thread information as well as pending I/O
operations and I/O performance statistics.
INSERT BUFFER AND ADAPTIVE HASH INDEX: InnoDB insert buffer
and adaptive hash index status information, including the
number of each type of operation performed, and adaptive
hash index performance.
LOG: InnoDB log information, including current log sequence
number, how far the log has been flushed to disk, the
position at which InnoDB last took a checkpoint, pending
writes and write performance statistics.
BUFFER POOL AND MEMORY: Information on buffer pool pages
read and written, which allows you to see the number of data
file I/O operations performed by your queries. See InnoDB
Buffer Pool for more. Similar information is also available
from the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_BUFFER_POOL_STATS table.
ROW OPERATIONS:Information about the main thread, including
the number and performance rate for each type of row
operation. 
 
If the innodb_status_output_locks system variable is set to
1, extended lock information will be displayed.

------ 
SHOW EVENTS [{FROM | IN} schema_name]
 [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
Shows information about Event Manager events (created with
CREATE EVENT). Requires the EVENT privilege. Without any
arguments, SHOW EVENTS lists all of the events in the
current schema:
 
SELECT CURRENT_USER(), SCHEMA();
+----------------+----------+
| CURRENT_USER() | SCHEMA() |

	/SHOW EXPLAINThe SHOW EXPLAIN command is a new feature in MariaDB 10.0.0.
 
Command description
 
The SHOW EXPLAIN command allows one to get an EXPLAIN (that
is, a
description of a query plan) of a query running in a certain
thread.
 
The syntax is:
 
SHOW EXPLAIN FOR ;
 
which will produce an EXPLAIN output for the query that
thread number thread_id is running. The thread id can be
obtained with SHOW PROCESSLIST.
 
SHOW EXPLAIN FOR 1;
 
+------+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+---------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key |
key_len | ref | rows | Extra |
+------+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+---------+-------------+
| 1 | SIMPLE | tbl | index | NULL | a | 5 | NULL | 1000107 |
Using index |
+------+-------------+-------+-------+---------------+------+---------+------+---------+-------------+
1 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
 
The output is always accompanied with a warning which shows
the query the
target thread is running (this shows what the EXPLAIN is
for):
 
SHOW WARNINGS;
 
+-------+------+------------------------+
| Level | Code | Message |
+-------+------+------------------------+
| Note | 1003 | select sum(a) from tbl |
+-------+------+------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
 
Possible errors
 
The output can be only produced if the target thread is
currently running a
query, which has a ready query plan. If this is not the
case, the output will
be:
 
SHOW EXPLAIN FOR 2;
 
ERROR 1932 (HY000): Target is not running an EXPLAINable
command
 
You will get this error when:
the target thread is not running a command for which one can
run EXPLAIN
the target thread is running a command for which one can run
EXPLAIN, but
there is no query plan yet (for example, tables are open and
locks are
 acquired before the query plan is produced)
 

Differences between SHOW EXPLAIN and EXPLAIN outputs
 
Background
 
In MySQL, EXPLAIN execution takes a slightly different route
from the way
the real query (typically the SELECT) is optimized. This is
unfortunate,
and has caused a number of bugs in EXPLAIN. (For example,
see
MDEV-326, MDEV-410, and
lp:1013343.
lp:992942 is not directly
about EXPLAIN, but it also would not have existed if MySQL
didn't try to delete
parts of a query plan in the middle of the query) 
 
SHOW EXPLAIN examines a running SELECT, and hence its output
may be
slightly different from what EXPLAIN SELECT would produce.
We did our best
to make sure that either the difference is negligible, or
SHOW EXPLAIN's
output is closer to reality than EXPLAIN's output.
 
List of recorded differences
 
SHOW EXPLAIN may have Extra='no matching row in const
table', where EXPLAIN would produce Extra='Impossible
WHERE ...'
For queries with subqueries, SHOW EXPLAIN may print
select_type==PRIMARY where regular EXPLAIN used to print
select_type==SIMPLE, or vice versa.
 
Required permissions
 
Running SHOW EXPLAIN requires the same permissions as
running SHOW PROCESSLIST would.

7SHOW FUNCTION STATUSSyntax
------ 
SHOW FUNCTION STATUS
 [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
This statement is similar to 
SHOW PROCEDURE STATUS but for
stored functions.
 
The LIKE clause, if present on its own, indicates which
function names to match. 
 
The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be given to select rows using
more general conditions, as discussed in Extended SHOW.
 
The information_schema.ROUTINES table contains more detailed
information.

�.SHOW GRANTSUsers
 
Syntax
------ 
SHOW GRANTS [FOR user]
 
Description
----------- 
This statement lists the GRANT statement or
statements that must be issued to duplicate the privileges
that are granted to
a MariaDB user account. The account is named using the same
format as for the
GRANT statement; for example,
'jeffrey'@'localhost'. If you specify only the user name
part
of the account name, a host name part of '%' is used. For
additional information about specifying account names, see
GRANT.
 
SHOW GRANTS FOR 'root'@'localhost';
+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Grants for root@localhost |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'localhost' WITH
GRANT OPTION |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
To list the privileges granted to the account that you are
using to
connect to the server, you can use any of the following
statements:
 
SHOW GRANTS;
 
SHOW GRANTS FOR CURRENT_USER;
 
SHOW GRANTS FOR CURRENT_USER();
 
If SHOW GRANTS FOR CURRENT_USER (or any
of the equivalent syntaxes) is used in DEFINER context (such
as within a stored procedure that is defined with 
 SQL SECURITY DEFINER), the grants displayed are those of
the
definer and not the invoker.
 
Note that the DELETE HISTORY privilege, introduced in
MariaDB 10.3.4, is displayed as DELETE VERSIONING ROWS when
running SHOW GRANTS (MDEV-17655).
 
Roles
 
Roles were introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
SHOW GRANTS [FOR role]
 
Description
----------- 
From MariaDB 10.0.5, SHOW GRANTS can also be used to view
the privileges granted to a role.
 
Example
 
SHOW GRANTS FOR journalist;
+------------------------------------------+
| Grants for journalist |
+------------------------------------------+
| GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'journalist' |
| GRANT DELETE ON `test`.* TO 'journalist' |
+------------------------------------------+

�-SHOW INDEXSyntax
------ 
SHOW {INDEX | INDEXES | KEYS} 
 FROM tbl_name [FROM db_name]
 [WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
SHOW INDEX returns table index information. The format
resembles that of the SQLStatistics call in ODBC.
 
You can use db_name.tbl_name as an alternative to the
 tbl_name FROM db_name syntax. These two statements are
 equivalent:
 
SHOW INDEX FROM mytable FROM mydb;
SHOW INDEX FROM mydb.mytable;
 
SHOW KEYS and SHOW INDEXES are synonyms for SHOW INDEX.
 
You can also list a table's indexes with the following
command: 
 
mysqlshow -k db_name tbl_name
 
See mysqlshow for more details.
 
The information_schema.STATISTICS table stores similar
information.
 
The following fields are returned by SHOW INDEX.
 
Field | Description | 
 
Table | Table name | 
 
Non_unique | 1 if the index permits duplicate values, 0 if
values must be unique. | 
 
Key_name | Index name. The primary key is always named
PRIMARY. | 
 
Seq_in_index | The column's sequence in the index,
beginning with 1. | 
 
Column_name | Column name. | 
 
Collation | Either A, if the column is sorted in ascending
order in the index, or NULL if it's not sorted. | 
 
Cardinality | Estimated number of unique values in the
index. The cardinality statistics are calculated at various
times, and can help the optimizer make improved decisions. |

 
Sub_part | NULL if the entire column is included in the
index, or the number of included characters if not. | 
 
Packed | NULL if the index is not packed, otherwise how the
index is packed. | 
 
Null | NULL if NULL values are permitted in the column, an
empty string if NULL's are not permitted. | 
 
Index_type | The index type, which can be BTREE, FULLTEXT,
HASH or RTREE. See Storage Engine Index Types. | 
 
Comment | Other information, such as whether the index is
disabled. | 
 
Index_comment | Contents of the COMMENT attribute when the
index was created. | 
 
The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be given to select rows using
more general conditions, as discussed in Extended SHOW.

/SHOW LOCALESSHOW LOCALES was introduced as part of the Information
Schema plugin extension in MariaDB 10.1.1.
 
SHOW LOCALES is used to return locales information as part
of the Locales plugin. While the information_schema.LOCALES
table has 8 columns, the SHOW LOCALES statement will only
display 4 of them:
 
Example

N5SHOW MASTER STATUSSyntax
------ 
SHOW MASTER STATUS
 
Description
----------- 
Provides status information about the binary log files of
the master.
 
This statement requires the SUPER or the REPLICATION_CLIENT
privilege.
 
To see information about the current GTIDs in the binary
log, use the
gtid_binlog_pos variable.
 
Example
 
SHOW MASTER STATUS;
+--------------------+----------+--------------+------------------+
| File | Position | Binlog_Do_DB | Binlog_Ignore_DB |

w3SHOW OPEN TABLESSyntax
------ 
SHOW OPEN TABLES [FROM db_name]
 [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
 SHOW OPEN TABLES lists the non-TEMPORARY
tables that are currently open in the table cache. See
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/table-cache.html.
 
The FROM and LIKE clauses may be used.
 
The FROM
clause, if present, restricts the tables shown to those
present in the
db_name database. 
 
The LIKE clause, if
present on its own, indicates which table names to match.
The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be given to select rows using
more general conditions, as discussed in Extended SHOW.
 
The following information is returned:
 
Column | Description | 
 
Database | Database name. | 
 
Name | Table name. | 
 
In_use | Number of table instances being used. | 
 
Name_locked | 1 if the table is name-locked, e.g. if it is
being dropped or renamed, otherwise 0. | 
 
Before MariaDB 5.5, each use of, for example, LOCK TABLE ...
WRITE would increment In_use for that table. With the
implementation of the metadata locking improvements in
MariaDB 5.5, LOCK TABLE... WRITE acquires a strong MDL lock,
and concurrent connections will wait on this MDL lock, so
any subsequent LOCK TABLE... WRITE will not increment
In_use.
 
Example
 
SHOW OPEN TABLES;
 
+----------+---------------------------+--------+-------------+
| Database | Table | In_use | Name_locked |
+----------+---------------------------+--------+-------------+
...
| test | xjson | 0 | 0 |
| test | jauthor | 0 | 0 |
| test | locks | 1 | 0 |
...

�6SHOW PROCEDURE CODESyntax
------ 
SHOW PROCEDURE CODE proc_name
 
Description
----------- 
This statement is a MariaDB extension that is available only
for servers that
have been built with debugging support. It displays a
representation of the
internal implementation of the named stored procedure. A
similar statement,
 SHOW FUNCTION CODE, displays
information about stored functions.
 
Both statements require that you be the owner of the routine
or have
 SELECT access to the mysql.proc table.
 
If the named routine is available, each statement produces a
result
set. Each row in the result set corresponds to one
"instruction" in
the routine. The first column is Pos, which is an ordinal
number
beginning with 0. The second column is Instruction, which
contains an
SQL statement (usually changed from the original source), or
a
directive which has meaning only to the stored-routine
handler.
 
Examples
-------- 
DELIMITER //
 
CREATE PROCEDURE p1 ()
 BEGIN
 DECLARE fanta INT DEFAULT 55;
 DROP TABLE t2;
 LOOP
 INSERT INTO t3 VALUES (fanta);
 END LOOP;
 END//
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
 
SHOW PROCEDURE CODE p1//

Description
----------- 
This statement is a MariaDB extension. It returns
characteristics of a stored
procedure, such as the database, name, type, creator,
creation and modification
dates, and character set information. A similar statement, 
 SHOW FUNCTION STATUS, displays
information about stored functions.
 
The LIKE clause, if present, indicates which procedure or
function names to match. The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be
given to select rows using more general conditions, as
discussed in Extended SHOW.
 
The ROUTINES table in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA database

y7SHOW RELAYLOG EVENTSSyntax
------ 
SHOW RELAYLOG ['connection_name'] EVENTS
 [IN 'log_name'] [FROM pos] [LIMIT [offset,] row_count]
 
Description
----------- 
On replication slaves this command shows the events in the
relay log. If 'log_name' is not specified, the first relay
log is shown.
 
Syntax for the LIMIT clause is the same as for SELECT ...
LIMIT.
 
Using the LIMIT clause is highly recommended because the
SHOW RELAYLOG EVENTS command returns the complete contents
of the relay log, which can be quite large.
 
This command does not return events related to setting user
and system variables. If you need those, use mysqlbinlog.
 
On the replication master, this command does nothing.
 
connection_name
 
connection_name was added as part of multi-source
replication added in MariaDB 10.0.1
 
If there is only one nameless master, or the default master
(as specified by the default_master_connection system
variable) is intended, connection_name can be omitted. If
provided, the SHOW RELAYLOG statement will apply to the
specified master. connection_name is case-insensitive.

f3SHOW SLAVE HOSTSSyntax
------ 
SHOW SLAVE HOSTS
 
Description
----------- 
This command is run on the master and displays a list of
replication slaves that are currently registered with it.
Only slaves started with the --report-host=host_name option
are visible in this list.
 
The list is displayed on any server (not just the master
server). The output
looks like this:
 
SHOW SLAVE HOSTS;
+------------+-----------+------+-----------+
| Server_id | Host | Port | Master_id |
+------------+-----------+------+-----------+
| 192168010 | iconnect2 | 3306 | 192168011 |
| 1921680101 | athena | 3306 | 192168011 |
+------------+-----------+------+-----------+
Server_id: The unique server ID of the slave server, as
configured in the server's option file, or on the command
line with --server-id=value.
Host: The host name of the slave server, as configured in
the server's option file, or on the command line with
--report-host=host_name. Note that this can differ from the
machine name as configured in the operating system.
Port: The port the slave server is listening on.
Master_id: The unique server ID of the master server that
the slave server is replicating from.
 
Some MariaDB and MySQL versions report another variable,
rpl_recovery_rank. This
variable was never used, and was eventually removed in
MariaDB 10.1.2 and MySQL 5.6.

�3SHOW PROCESSLISTSyntax
------ 
SHOW [FULL] PROCESSLIST
 
Description
----------- 
 SHOW PROCESSLIST shows you which threads are running. You
can also get this information from the
information_schema.PROCESSLIST table or the mysqladmin
processlist command. If you have the 
PROCESS privilege, you can see all threads.
Otherwise, you can see only your own threads (that is,
threads associated with
the MariaDB account that you are using). If you do not use
the
FULL keyword, only the first 100 characters of each
statement are shown in the Info field.
 
The columns shown in SHOW PROCESSLIST
 are:
 
Name | Description | Introduced | 
 
ID | The client's process ID. |  | 
 
USER | The username associated with the process. |  | 
 
HOST | The host the client is connected to. |  | 
 
DB | The default database of the process (NULL if no
default). |  | 
 
COMMAND | The command type. See Thread Command Values. |  | 
 
TIME | The amount of time, in seconds, the process has been
in its current state. For a slave SQL thread before MariaDB
10.1, this is the time in seconds between the last
replicated event's timestamp and the slave machine's real
time. |  | 
 
STATE | See Thread States. |  | 
 
INFO | The statement being executed. |  | 
 
PROGRESS | The total progress of the process (0-100%) (see
Progress Reporting). | MariaDB 5.3 | 
 
See TIME_MS column in information_schema.PROCESSLIST for
differences in the TIME column between MariaDB and MySQL.
 
The information_schema.PROCESSLIST table contains the
following additional columns:
 
Name | Description | Introduced | 
 
TIME_MS | The amount of time, in milliseconds, the process
has been in its current state. | MariaDB 5.1 | 
 
STAGE | The stage the process is currently in. |
MariaDB 5.3 | 
 
MAX_STAGE | The maximum number of stages. | MariaDB 5.3 | 
 
PROGRESS | The progress of the process within the current
stage (0-100%). | MariaDB 5.3 | 
 
MEMORY_USED | The amount of memory used by the process. |
MariaDB 10.0.1 | 
 
EXAMINED_ROWS | The number of rows the process has examined.
| MariaDB 10.0.1 | 
 
QUERY_ID | Query ID. | MariaDB 10.0.5 | 
 
Note that the PROGRESS field from the information schema,
and the PROGRESS field from SHOW PROCESSLIST display
different results. SHOW PROCESSLIST shows the total
progress, while the information schema shows the progress
for the current stage only.
 
Threads can be killed using their thread_id, or, since
MariaDB 10.0.5, their query_id, with the KILL statement.
 
Since queries on this table are locking, if the
performance_schema is enabled, you may want to query the
THREADS table instead.

�/SHOW PROFILESyntax
------ 
SHOW PROFILE [type [, type] ... ]
 [FOR QUERY n]
 [LIMIT row_count [OFFSET offset]]
 
type:
 ALL
 | BLOCK IO
 | CONTEXT SWITCHES
 | CPU
 | IPC
 | MEMORY
 | PAGE FAULTS
 | SOURCE
 | SWAPS
 
Description
----------- 
The SHOW PROFILE and 
SHOW PROFILES statements display profiling
information that indicates resource usage for statements
executed during the
course of the current session.
 
Profiling is controlled by the profiling session variable,
which has a default value of 0 (OFF). Profiling is enabled
by setting profiling to 1 or ON:
 
SET profiling = 1;
 
SHOW PROFILES displays a list of the most recent statements
sent to the master. The size of the list is controlled by
the
profiling_history_size session variable, which has a default
value of 15. The maximum value is 100. Setting the value to
0 has the practical effect of disabling profiling.
 
All statements are profiled except SHOW PROFILES and 
SHOW PROFILE, so you will find neither of those statements
in the profile list. Malformed statements are profiled. For
example, 
 SHOW PROFILING is an illegal statement, and a syntax error
occurs if you try to execute it, but it will show up in the
profiling list.
 
 SHOW PROFILE displays detailed information about a single
statement. Without the FOR QUERY n clause, the output
pertains to the most recently executed statement. If 
 FOR QUERY n is included,
 SHOW PROFILE displays information for statement n. The
values of n correspond to
the Query_ID values displayed by SHOW PROFILES.
 
The LIMIT row_count clause may be given to limit the
output to row_count rows. If LIMIT is given, 
 OFFSET offset may be added to begin the output offset
rows into the full set of rows.
 
By default, SHOW PROFILE displays Status and Duration
columns. The Status values are like the State values
displayed by 
SHOW PROCESSLIST,
although there might be some minor differences in
interpretation for
the two statements for some status values (see
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/thread-information.html).
 
Optional type values may be specified to display specific
additional
types of information:
ALL displays all information
BLOCK IO displays counts for block input and output
operations
CONTEXT SWITCHES displays counts for voluntary and
involuntary context switches
CPU displays user and system CPU usage times
IPC displays counts for messages sent and received
MEMORY is not currently implemented
PAGE FAULTS displays counts for major and minor page faults
SOURCE displays the names of functions from the source code,
together with the name and line number of the file in which
the function occurs
SWAPS displays swap counts
 
Profiling is enabled per session. When a session ends, its
profiling information is lost.
 
The information_schema.PROFILING table contains similar
information.

4SHOW TABLE STATUSSyntax
------ 
SHOW TABLE STATUS [{FROM | IN} db_name]
 [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
 SHOW TABLE STATUS works like 
 SHOW TABLES, but provides more extensive information about
each non-TEMPORARY table.
 
The LIKE clause, if present on its own, indicates which
table names to
match. The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be given to select
rows using more general conditions, as discussed in Extended
SHOW.
 
The following information is returned:
 
Column | Description | 
 
Name | Table name. | 
 
Engine | Table storage engine. | 
 
Version | Version number from the table's .frm file. | 
 
Row_format | Row format (see InnoDB, Aria and MyISAM row
formats). | 
 
Rows | Number of rows in the table. Some engines, such as
XtraDB and InnoDB may store an estimate. | 
 
Avg_row_length | Average row length in the table. | 
 
Data_length | For InnoDB/XtraDB, the index size, in pages,
multiplied by the page size. For Aria and MyISAM, length of
the data file, in bytes. For MEMORY, the approximate
allocated memory. | 
 
Max_data_length | Maximum length of the data file, ie the
total number of bytes that could be stored in the table. Not
used in XtraDB and InnoDB. | 
 
Index_length | Length of the index file. | 
 
Data_free | Bytes allocated but unused. For InnoDB tables in
a shared tablespace, the free space of the shared tablespace
with small safety margin. An estimate in the case of
partitioned tables - see the PARTITIONS table. | 
 
Auto_increment | Next AUTO_INCREMENT value. | 
 
Create_time | Time the table was created. | 
 
Update_time | Time the table was last updated. On Windows,
the timestamp is not updated on update, so MyISAM values
will be inaccurate. In InnoDB, if shared tablespaces are
used, will be NULL, while buffering can also delay the
update, so the value will differ from the actual time of the
last UPDATE, INSERT or DELETE. | 
 
Check_time | Time the table was last checked. Not kept by
all storage engines, in which case will be NULL. | 
 
Collation | Character set and collation. | 
 
Checksum | Live checksum value, if any. | 
 
Create_options | Extra CREATE TABLE options. | 
 
Comment | Table comment provided when MariaDB created the
table. | 
 
Similar information can be found in the
information_schema.TABLES table as well as by using
mysqlshow:
 
mysqlshow --status db_name
 
Example
 
show table status\G

7.SHOW TABLESSyntax
------ 
SHOW [FULL] TABLES [FROM db_name]
 [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
SHOW TABLES lists the non-TEMPORARY tables, sequences and
views in a given database. 
 
The LIKE clause, if present on its own, indicates which
table names to match. The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be
given to select rows using more general conditions, as
discussed in Extended SHOW. For example, when searching for
tables in the test database, the column name for use in the
WHERE and LIKE clauses will be Tables_in_test
 
The FULL modifier is supported such that SHOW FULL TABLES
displays a second output column. Values for the second
column. Table_type, are BASE TABLE for a table, VIEW for a
view and SEQUENCE for a sequence.
 
You can also get this information using:
 
mysqlshow db_name
 
See mysqlshow for more details.
 
If you have no privileges for a base table or view, it does
not show up in the output from SHOW TABLES or mysqlshow
db_name.
 
The information_schema.TABLES table, as well as the SHOW
TABLE STATUS statement, provide extended information about
tables.
 
Examples
-------- 
SHOW TABLES;
+----------------------+
| Tables_in_test |
+----------------------+
| animal_count |
| animals |
| are_the_mooses_loose |
| aria_test2 |
| t1 |
| view1 |
+----------------------+
 
Showing the tables beginning with a only.
 
SHOW TABLES WHERE Tables_in_test LIKE 'a%';
+----------------------+
| Tables_in_test |
+----------------------+
| animal_count |
| animals |
| are_the_mooses_loose |
| aria_test2 |
+----------------------+
 
Showing tables and table types:
 
SHOW FULL TABLES;
+----------------+------------+
| Tables_in_test | Table_type |
+----------------+------------+
| s1 | SEQUENCE |
| student | BASE TABLE |
| v1 | VIEW |

~8SHOW TABLE_STATISTICSMariaDB 5.2 introduced the User Statistics feature.
 
Syntax
------ 
SHOW TABLE_STATISTICS
 
Description
----------- 
The SHOW TABLE_STATISTICS statement was introduced in
MariaDB 5.2 as part of the User Statistics feature. It was
removed as a separate statement in MariaDB 10.1.1, but
effectively replaced by the generic SHOW
information_schema_table statement. The
information_schema.TABLE_STATISTICS table shows statistics
on table usage
 
The userstat system variable must be set to 1 to activate
this feature. See the User Statistics and
information_schema.TABLE_STATISTICS articles for more
information.
 
Example
 
From MariaDB 10.0

b0SHOW TRIGGERSSyntax
------ 
SHOW TRIGGERS [FROM db_name]
 [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
 SHOW TRIGGERS lists the triggers currently defined for
tables in a database (the default database unless a FROM
clause is given). This statement requires the
TRIGGER privilege (prior to MySQL
5.1.22, it required the SUPER privilege). 
 
The LIKE clause, if present on its own, indicates which
table names to
match and causes the statement to display triggers for those
tables. The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be given to select
rows using more general conditions, as discussed in Extended
SHOW.
 
Similar information is stored in the
information_schema.TRIGGERS table.
 
If there are multiple triggers for the same action, then the
triggers are shown in action order.
 
Examples
-------- 
For the trigger defined at Trigger Overview:
 
SHOW triggers Like 'animals' \G
*************************** 1. row
***************************
 Trigger: the_mooses_are_loose
 Event: INSERT
 Table: animals
 Statement: BEGIN
 IF NEW.name = 'Moose' THEN
 UPDATE animal_count SET animal_count.animals =
animal_count.animals+100;
 ELSE 
 UPDATE animal_count SET animal_count.animals =
animal_count.animals+1;
 END IF;
END

 Event: INSERT
 Table: animals
 Statement: BEGIN
 IF NEW.name = 'Moose' THEN
 UPDATE animal_count SET animal_count.animals =
animal_count.animals+100;
 ELSE 
 UPDATE animal_count SET animal_count.animals =
animal_count.animals+1;

 sql_mode: 
 Definer: root@localhost
character_set_client: utf8
collation_connection: utf8_general_ci
 Database Collation: latin1_swedish_ci
character_set_client is the session value of the
character_set_client system variable when the trigger was
created. 
collation_connection is the session value of the
collation_connection system variable when the trigger was
 created. 
Database Collation is the collation of the database 
 with which the trigger is associated.
 
These columns were added in MariaDB/MySQL 5.1.21.
 
Old triggers created before MySQL 5.7 and MariaDB 10.2.3 has
NULL in the Created column.

�7SHOW USER_STATISTICSMariaDB 5.2 introduced the User Statistics feature.
 
Syntax
------ 
SHOW USER_STATISTICS
 
Description
----------- 
The SHOW USER_STATISTICS statement was introduced in MariaDB
5.2 as part of the User Statistics feature. It was removed
as a separate statement in MariaDB 10.1.1, but effectively
replaced by the generic SHOW information_schema_table
statement. The information_schema.USER_STATISTICS table
holds statistics about user activity. You can use this table
to find out such things as which user is causing the most
load and which users are being abusive. You can also use
this table to measure how close to capacity the server may
be.
 
The userstat system variable must be set to 1 to activate
this feature. See the User Statistics and
information_schema.USER_STATISTICS table for more
information.
 
Example
 
From MariaDB 10.0:

�8SHOW WSREP_MEMBERSHIPMariaDB 10.1.2
 
SHOW WSREP_MEMBERSHIP was introduced with the WSREP_INFO
plugin in MariaDB 10.1.2.
 
Syntax
------ 
SHOW WSREP_MEMBERSHIP
 
Description
----------- 
The SHOW WSREP_MEMBERSHIP statement returns Galera node
cluster membership information. It returns the same
information as found in the
information_schema.WSREP_MEMBERSHIP table. Only users with
the SUPER privilege can access this information.
 
Examples
-------- 
SHOW WSREP_MEMBERSHIP;

�1SHOW VARIABLESSyntax
------ 
SHOW [GLOBAL | SESSION] VARIABLES
 [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
 
Description
----------- 
SHOW VARIABLES shows the values of MariaDB system variables.
This
information also can be obtained using the mysqladmin
variables
command. The LIKE clause, if present, indicates which
variable names
to match. The WHERE clause can be given to select rows using
more
general conditions.
 
With the GLOBAL modifier, SHOW VARIABLES displays the values
that are
used for new connections to MariaDB. With SESSION, it
displays the
values that are in effect for the current connection. If no
modifier
is present, the default is SESSION. LOCAL is a synonym for
SESSION.
With a LIKE clause, the statement displays only rows for
those
variables with names that match the pattern. To obtain the
row for a
specific variable, use a LIKE clause as shown:
 
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'maria_group_commit';
 
SHOW SESSION VARIABLES LIKE 'maria_group_commit';
 
To get a list of variables whose name match a pattern, use
the "%"
wildcard character in a LIKE clause:
 
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE '%maria%';
 
SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE '%maria%';
 
Wildcard characters can be used in any position within the
pattern to
be matched. Strictly speaking, because "_" is a wildcard
that matches
any single character, you should escape it as "\_" to
match it
literally. In practice, this is rarely necessary.
 
The WHERE and LIKE clauses can be given to select rows using
more general conditions, as discussed in Extended SHOW.
 
See SET for information on setting server system variables.
 
See Server System Variables for a list of all the variables
that can be set.
 
You can also see the server variables by querying the
Information Schema GLOBAL_VARIABLES and SESSION_VARIABLES
tables.

4SHOW WSREP_STATUSMariaDB 10.1.2
 
SHOW WSREP_STATUS was introduced with the WSREP_INFO plugin
in MariaDB 10.1.2.
 
Syntax
------ 
SHOW WSREP_STATUS
 
Description
----------- 
The SHOW WSREP_STATUS statement returns Galera node and
cluster status information. It returns the same information
as found in the information_schema.WSREP_STATUS table. Only
users with the SUPER privilege can access this information.
 
Examples
-------- 
SHOW WSREP_STATUS;
+------------+-------------+----------------+--------------+
| Node_Index | Node_Status | Cluster_Status | Cluster_Size |
+------------+-------------+----------------+--------------+
| 0 | Synced | Primary | 3 |
+------------+-------------+----------------+--------------+

0SHOW WARNINGSSyntax
------ 
SHOW WARNINGS [LIMIT [offset,] row_count]
SHOW ERRORS [LIMIT row_count OFFSET offset]
SHOW COUNT(*) WARNINGS
 
Description
----------- 
 SHOW WARNINGS shows the error, warning, and note messages
that resulted from the last statement that generated
messages in the
current session. It shows nothing if the last statement used
a table
and generated no messages. (That is, a statement that uses a
table but
generates no messages clears the message list.) Statements
that do not
use tables and do not generate messages have no effect on
the message
list.
 
A note is different to a warning in that it only appears if
the sql_notes variable is set to 1 (the default), and is not
converted to an error if strict mode is enabled.
 
A related statement, SHOW ERRORS, shows only the errors.
 
The SHOW COUNT(*) WARNINGS statement displays the total
number of errors, warnings, and notes. You can also retrieve
this number from
the warning_count variable:
 
SHOW COUNT(*) WARNINGS;
SELECT @@warning_count;
 
The value of warning_count might be greater than the number
of messages displayed by SHOW WARNINGS if the
max_error_count system variable is set so low that not all
messages are stored.
 
The LIMIT clause has the same syntax as for the
 SELECT statement.
 
SHOW WARNINGS can be used after EXPLAIN EXTENDED to see how
a query is internally rewritten by MariaDB.
 
If the sql_notes server variable is set to 1, Notes are
included in the output of SHOW WARNINGS; if it is set to 0,
this statement will not show (or count) Notes.
 
The results of SHOW WARNINGS and SHOW COUNT(*) WARNINGS are
directly sent to the client. If you need to access those
information in a stored program, you can use the GET
DIAGNOSTICS statement instead.
 
For a list of MariaDB error codes, see MariaDB Error Codes.
 
The mysql client also has a number of options related to
warnings. The \W command will show warnings after every
statement, while \w will disable this. Starting the client
with the --show-warnings option will show warnings after
every statement.
 
MariaDB 10.3.1 implements a stored routine error stack
trace. SHOW WARNINGS can also be used to show more
information. See the example below.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT 1/0;
+------+
| 1/0 |

| NULL |

~'CALLSyntax
------ 
CALL sp_name([parameter[,...]])
CALL sp_name[()]
 
Description
----------- 
The CALL statement invokes a stored procedure that was
defined previously with CREATE PROCEDURE. 
 
Stored procedure names can be specified as
database_name.procedure_name. Procedure names and database
names can be quoted with backticks (). This is necessary if
they are reserved words, or contain special characters. See
identifier qualifiers for details.
 
Before MySQL 5.1.13, stored procedures that take no
arguments required parentheses. In current releases of
MariaDB, CALL p() and CALL p are equivalent.
 
If parentheses are used, any number of spaces, tab
characters and new line characters is allowed between the
procedure's name and the open parenthesis.
 
CALL can pass back values to its caller using parameters
that are declared as OUT or INOUT
parameters. If no value is assigned to an OUT parameter,
NULL is assigned (and its former value is lost). To pass
such values from another stored program you can use
user-defined variables, local variables or routine's
parameters; in other contexts, you can only use user-defined
variables. 
 
CALL can also be executed as a prepared statement.
Placeholders can be used for IN parameters in all versions
of MariaDB; for OUT and INOUT parameters, placeholders can
be used since MariaDB 5.5.
 
When the procedure returns, a client program can also obtain
the
number of rows affected for the final statement executed
within the routine: At
the SQL level, call the ROW_COUNT() function; from the C
API, call the mysql_affected_rows() function.
 
If the CLIENT_MULTI_RESULTS API flag is set, CALL can return
any number of resultsets and the called stored procedure can
execute prepared statements. If it is not set, at most one
resultset can be returned and prepared statements cannot be
used within procedures.

���
5Concurrent InsertsThe MyISAM storage engine supports concurrent inserts. This
feature allows SELECT statements to be executed during
INSERT operations, reducing contention.
 
Whether concurrent inserts can be used or not depends on the
value of the concurrent_insert server system variable:
NEVER (0) disables concurrent inserts.
AUTO (1) allows concurrent inserts only when the target
table has no free blocks (no data in the middle of the table
has been deleted after the last OPTIMIZE TABLE). This is the
default.
ALWAYS (2) always enables concurrent inserts.
 
If the binary log is used, CREATE TABLE ... SELECT and
INSERT ... SELECT statements cannot use concurrent inserts.
These statements acquire a read lock on the table, so
concurrent inserts will need to wait. This way the log can
be safely used to restore data.
 
Concurrent inserts is not used by slaves with the row based
replication (see binary log formats).
 
If an INSERT statement contain the HIGH_PRIORITY clause,
concurrent inserts cannot be used. INSERT ... DELAYED is
usually unneeded if concurrent inserts are enabled.
 
LOAD DATA INFILE uses concurrent inserts if the CONCURRENT
keyword is specified and concurrent_insert is not NEVER.
This makes the statement slower (even if no other sessions
access the table) but reduces contention.
 
LOCK TABLES allows non-conflicting concurrent inserts if a
READ LOCAL lock is used. Concurrent inserts are not allowed
if the LOCAL keyword is omitted.
 
Notes
 
The decision to enable concurrent insert for a table is done
when the table is opened. If you change the value of
concurrent_insert it will only affect new opened tables. If
you want it to work for also for tables in use or cached,
you should do FLUSH TABLES after setting the variable.

|)DELETESyntax
------ 
Single-table syntax:
 
DELETE [LOW_PRIORITY] [QUICK] [IGNORE] 
 FROM tbl_name [PARTITION (partition_list)]
 [WHERE where_condition]
 [ORDER BY ...]
 [LIMIT row_count]
 [RETURNING select_expr 
 [, select_expr ...]]
 
Multiple-table syntax:
 
DELETE [LOW_PRIORITY] [QUICK] [IGNORE]
 tbl_name[.*] [, tbl_name[.*]] ...
 FROM table_references
 [WHERE where_condition]
 
Or:
 
DELETE [LOW_PRIORITY] [QUICK] [IGNORE]
 FROM tbl_name[.*] [, tbl_name[.*]] ...
 USING table_references
 [WHERE where_condition]
 
Trimming history:
 
DELETE HISTORY
 FROM tbl_name [PARTITION (partition_list)]
 [BEFORE SYSTEM_TIME [TIMESTAMP|TRANSACTION] expression]
 
Description
----------- 
Option | Description | 
 
LOW_PRIORITY | Wait until all SELECT's are done before
starting the statement. Used with storage engines that uses
table locking (MyISAM, Aria etc). See HIGH_PRIORITY and
LOW_PRIORITY clauses for details. | 
 
QUICK | Signal the storage engine that it should expect that
a lot of rows are deleted. The storage engine engine can do
things to speed up the DELETE like ignoring merging of data
blocks until all rows are deleted from the block (instead of
when a block is half full). This speeds up things at the
expanse of lost space in data blocks. At least MyISAM and
Aria support this feature. | 
 
IGNORE | Don't stop the query even if a not-critical error
occurs (like data overflow). See How IGNORE works for a full
description. | 
 
For the single-table syntax, the DELETE statement deletes
rows
from tbl_name and returns a count of the number of deleted
rows. This count can
be obtained by calling the ROW_COUNT() function. The
WHERE clause, if given, specifies the conditions that
identify
which rows to delete. With no WHERE clause, all rows are
deleted. If the ORDER BY clause is specified, the rows are
deleted in the order that is specified. The LIMIT clause
places a limit on the number of rows that can be deleted.
 
For the multiple-table syntax, DELETE deletes from each
tbl_name the rows that satisfy the conditions. In this case,
ORDER BY and LIMIT> cannot be used. A DELETE can also
reference tables which are located in different databases;
see Identifier Qualifiers for the syntax.
 
where_condition is an expression that evaluates to true for
each row to be deleted. It is specified as described in
SELECT.
 
Currently, you cannot delete from a table and select from
the same
table in a subquery.
 
You need the DELETE privilege on a table to delete rows from
it. You need only the SELECT privilege for any columns that
are only read, such as those named in the WHERE clause. See
GRANT.
 
The PARTITION clause was introduced in MariaDB 10.0. See
Partition Pruning and Selection for details.
 
As stated, a DELETE statement with no WHERE
clause deletes all rows. A faster way to do this, when you
do not need to know
the number of deleted rows, is to use TRUNCATE TABLE.
However,
within a transaction or if you have a lock on the table, 
TRUNCATE TABLE cannot be used whereas DELETE
can. See TRUNCATE TABLE, and
LOCK.
 
From MariaDB 10.0.5, it is possible to return a resultset of
the deleted rows for a single table to the client by using
the syntax DELETE ... RETURNING select_expr [, select_expr2
...]]
 
Any of SQL expression that can be calculated from a single
row fields is allowed. Subqueries are allowed. The AS
keyword is allowed, so it is possible to use aliases.
 
The use of aggregate functions is not allowed. RETURNING
cannot be used in multi-table DELETEs.
 
Same Source and Target Table
 
Until MariaDB 10.3.1, deleting from a table with the same
source and target was not possible. From MariaDB 10.3.1,
this is now possible. For example:
 
DELETE FROM t1 WHERE c1 IN (SELECT b.c1 FROM t1 b WHERE
b.c2=0);
 
One can use DELETE HISTORY to delete historical information
from System-versioned tables.
 
Examples
-------- 
How to use the ORDER BY and LIMIT clauses:
 
DELETE FROM page_hit ORDER BY timestamp LIMIT 1000000;
 
How to use the RETURNING clause:
 
DELETE FROM t RETURNING f1;
 
+------+
| f1 |
+------+
| 5 |
| 50 |
| 500 |
+------+ 
 
The following statement joins two tables: one is only used
to satisfy a WHERE condition, but no row is deleted from it;
rows from the other table are deleted, instead.
 
DELETE post FROM blog INNER JOIN post WHERE blog.id =
post.blog_id;
 
Deleting from the Same Source and Target
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (c1 INT, c2 INT);
DELETE FROM t1 WHERE c1 IN (SELECT b.c1 FROM t1 b WHERE
b.c2=0);
 
Until MariaDB 10.3.1, this returned:
 
ERROR 1093 (HY000): Table 't1' is specified twice, both as
a target for 'DELETE' 
 and as a separate source for
 
From MariaDB 10.3.1:
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

�L�
T	)EXCEPTEXCEPT was introduced in MariaDB 10.3.0.
 
The result of EXCEPT is all records of the left SELECT
result set except records which are in right SELECT result
set, i.e. it is subtraction of two result sets.
 
Syntax
------ 
SELECT ...
(INTERSECT | EXCEPT | UNION [ALL | DISTINCT]) SELECT ...
[(INTERSECT | EXCEPT | UNION [ALL | DISTINCT]) SELECT ...]
[ORDER BY [column [, column ...]]]
[LIMIT {[offset,] row_count | row_count OFFSET offset}]
 
Please note:
ALL is not supported by EXCEPT (and it is difficult to make
sense of ALL with EXCEPT).
Brackets for explicit operation precedence are not
supported; use a subquery in the FROM clause as a
workaround).
 
Description
----------- 
MariaDB has supported EXCEPT and INTERSECT in addition to
UNION since MariaDB 10.3.
 
All behavior for naming columns, ORDER BY and LIMIT is the
same as for UNION.
 
EXCEPT implicitly supposes a DISTINCT operation.
 
The result of EXCEPT is all records of the left SELECT
result except records which are in right SELECT result set,
i.e. it is subtraction of two result sets.
 
EXCEPT and UNION have the same operation precedence.
 

Parentheses
 
From MariaDB 10.4.0, parentheses can be used to specify
precedence. Before this, a syntax error would be returned.
 
Examples
-------- 
Show customers which are not employees:
 
(SELECT e_name AS name, email FROM customers)
EXCEPT
(SELECT c_name AS name, email FROM employees);
 
Difference between UNION, EXCEPT and INTERSECT:
 
CREATE TABLE seqs (i INT);
INSERT INTO seqs VALUES (1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6);
 
SELECT i FROM seqs WHERE i =3;
 
+------+
| i |
+------+
| 1 |
| 2 |
| 3 |
| 4 |
| 5 |
| 6 |
+------+
 
SELECT i FROM seqs WHERE i =3;
 
+------+
| i |
+------+
| 1 |
| 2 |
+------+
 
SELECT i FROM seqs WHERE i =3;
 
+------+
| i |
+------+
| 3 |
+------+
 
Parentheses for specifying precedence, from MariaDB 10.4.0
 
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t1 (a INT);
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t2 (b INT);
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t3 (c INT);
 
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1),(2),(3),(4);
INSERT INTO t2 VALUES (5),(6);
INSERT INTO t3 VALUES (1),(6);
 
((SELECT a FROM t1) UNION (SELECT b FROM t2)) EXCEPT (SELECT
c FROM t3);
+------+
| a |
+------+
| 2 |
| 3 |

BAHIGH_PRIORITY and LOW_PRIORITYThe XtraDB/InnoDB storage engine uses row-level locking to
ensure data integrity. However some storage engines (such as
MEMORY, MyISAM, Aria and MERGE) lock the whole table to
prevent conflicts. These storage engines use two separate
queues to remember pending statements; one is for SELECTs
and the other one is for write statements (INSERT, DELETE,
UPDATE). By default, the latter has a higher priority.
 
To give write operations a lower priority, the
low_priority_updates server system variable can be set to
ON. The option is available on both the global and session
levels, and it can be set at startup or via the SET
statement.
 
When too many table locks have been set by write statements,
some pending SELECTs are executed. The maximum number of
write locks that can be acquired before this happens is
determined by the max_write_lock_count server system
variable, which is dynamic.
 
If write statements have a higher priority (default), the
priority of individual write statements (INSERT, REPLACE,
UPDATE, DELETE) can be changed via the LOW_PRIORITY
attribute, and the priority of a SELECT statement can be
raised via the HIGH_PRIORITY attribute. Also, LOCK TABLES
supports a LOW_PRIORITY attribute for WRITE locks.
 
If read statements have a higher priority, the priority of
an INSERT can be changed via the HIGH_PRIORITY attribute.
However, the priority of other write statements cannot be
raised individually.
 
The use of LOW_PRIORITY or HIGH_PRIORITY for an INSERT
prevents Concurrent Inserts from being used.

)IGNOREThe IGNORE option tells the server to ignore some common
errors.
 
IGNORE can be used with the following statements:
DELETE
INSERT (see also INSERT IGNORE)
LOAD DATA INFILE
UPDATE
ALTER TABLE
CREATE TABLE ... SELECT
INSERT ... SELECT
 
The logic used:
Variables out of ranges are replaced with the
maximum/minimum value.
 
SQL_MODEs STRICT_TRANS_TABLES, STRICT_ALL_TABLES,
NO_ZERO_IN_DATE, NO_ZERO_DATE are ignored.
 
Inserting NULL in a NOT NULL field will insert 0 ( in a
numerical
 field), 0000-00-00 ( in a date field) or an empty string (
in a character
 field).
 
Rows that cause a duplicate key error or break a foreign key
constraint are
 not inserted, updated, or deleted.
 
The following errors are ignored:
 
Error number | Symbolic error name | Description | 
 
1022 | ER_DUP_KEY | Can't write; duplicate key in table
'%s' | 
 
1048 | ER_BAD_NULL_ERROR | Column '%s' cannot be null | 
 
1062 | ER_DUP_ENTRY | Duplicate entry '%s' for key %d | 
 
1242 | ER_SUBQUERY_NO_1_ROW | Subquery returns more than 1
row | 
 
1264 | ER_WARN_DATA_OUT_OF_RANGE | Out of range value for
column '%s' at row %ld | 
 
1265 | WARN_DATA_TRUNCATED | Data truncated for column
'%s' at row %ld | 
 
1292 | ER_TRUNCATED_WRONG_VALUE | Truncated incorrect %s
value: '%s' | 
 
1366 | ER_TRUNCATED_WRONG_VALUE_FOR_FIELD | Incorrect
integer value | 
 
1369 | ER_VIEW_CHECK_FAILED | CHECK OPTION failed '%s.%s'
| 
 
1451 | ER_ROW_IS_REFERENCED_2 | Cannot delete or update a
parent row | 
 
1452 | ER_NO_REFERENCED_ROW_2 | Cannot add or update a child
row: a foreign key constraint fails (%s) | 
 
1526 | ER_NO_PARTITION_FOR_GIVEN_VALUE | Table has no
partition for value %s | 
 
1586 | ER_DUP_ENTRY_WITH_KEY_NAME | Duplicate entry '%s'
for key '%s' | 
 
1591 | ER_NO_PARTITION_FOR_GIVEN_VALUE_SILENT | Table has no
partition for some existing values | 
 
1748 | ER_ROW_DOES_NOT_MATCH_GIVEN_PARTITION_SET | Found a
row not matching the given partition set | 
 
Ignored errors normally generate a warning.
 
A property of the IGNORE clause consists in causing
transactional engines and non-transactional engines (like
XtraDB and Aria) to behave the same way. For example,
normally a multi-row insert which tries to violate a UNIQUE
contraint is completely rolled back on XtraDB/InnoDB, but
might be partially executed on Aria. With the IGNORE clause,
the statement will be partially executed in both engines.
 
Starting from MariaDB 5.5.28 duplicate key errors also
generate warnings. The OLD_MODE server variable can be used
to prevent this.

���
j+GROUP BYUse the GROUP BY clause in a SELECT statement to group rows
together that have the same value in one or more column, or
the same computed value using expressions with any
functions and operators except
grouping functions. When you
use a GROUP BY clause, you will get a single result row for
each group of rows
that have the same value for the expression given in GROUP
BY.
 
When grouping rows, grouping values are compared as if by
the = operator.
For string values, the = operator ignores trailing
whitespace and may normalize
characters and ignore case, depending on the collation in
use.
 
You can use any of the grouping functions in your select
expression. Their values will
be calculated based on all the rows that have been grouped
together for each result
row. If you select a non-grouped column or a value computed
from a non-grouped
column, it is undefined which row the returned value is
taken from. This is not permitted if the ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY
SQL_MODE is used.
 
You can use multiple expressions in the GROUP BY clause,
separated by commas.
Rows are grouped together if they match on each of the
expressions.
 
You can also use a single integer as the grouping
expression. If you use an integer n,
the results will be grouped by the nth column in the select
expression.
 
The WHERE clause is applied before the GROUP BY clause. It
filters non-aggregated
rows before the rows are grouped together. To filter grouped
rows based on aggregate values,
use the HAVING clause. The HAVING clause takes any
expression and evaluates it as
a boolean, just like the WHERE clause. You can use grouping
functions in the HAVING
clause. As with the select expression, if you reference
non-grouped columns in the HAVING
clause, the behavior is undefined.
 
By default, if a GROUP BY clause is present, the rows in the
output will be sorted by the expressions used in the GROUP
BY. You can also specify ASC or DESC (ascending, descending)
after those expressions, like in ORDER BY. The default is
ASC.
 
If you want the rows to be sorted by another field, you can
add an explicit ORDER BY. If you don't want the result to
be ordered, you can add ORDER BY NULL.
 
WITH ROLLUP
 
The WITH ROLLUP modifer adds extra rows to the resultset
that represent super-aggregate summaries. For a full
description with examples, see SELECT WITH ROLLUP.
 
GROUP BY Examples
 
Consider the following table that records how many times
each user has played and won a game:
 
CREATE TABLE plays (name VARCHAR(16), plays INT, wins INT);
INSERT INTO plays VALUES 
 ("John", 20, 5), 
 ("Robert", 22, 8), 
 ("Wanda", 32, 8), 
 ("Susan", 17, 3);
 
Get a list of win counts along with a count:
 
SELECT wins, COUNT(*) FROM plays GROUP BY wins;
 
+------+----------+
| wins | COUNT(*) |
+------+----------+
| 3 | 1 |
| 5 | 1 |
| 8 | 2 |
+------+----------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
 
The GROUP BY expression can be a computed value, and can
refer back to an identifer
specified with AS. Get a list of win averages along with a
count:
 
SELECT (wins / plays) AS winavg, COUNT(*) FROM plays GROUP
BY winavg;
 
+--------+----------+
| winavg | COUNT(*) |
+--------+----------+
| 0.1765 | 1 |
| 0.2500 | 2 |
| 0.3636 | 1 |
+--------+----------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
 
You can use any grouping function
in the select expression. For each win average as above, get
a list of the average play
count taken to get that average:
 
SELECT (wins / plays) AS winavg, AVG(plays) FROM plays 
 GROUP BY winavg;
 
+--------+------------+
| winavg | AVG(plays) |
+--------+------------+
| 0.1765 | 17.0000 |
| 0.2500 | 26.0000 |
| 0.3636 | 22.0000 |
+--------+------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
 
You can filter on aggregate information using the HAVING
clause. The HAVING
clause is applied after GROUP BY and allows you to filter on
aggregate data that is
not available to the WHERE clause. Restrict the above
example to results that involve
an average number of plays over 20:
 
SELECT (wins / plays) AS winavg, AVG(plays) FROM plays 
 GROUP BY winavg HAVING AVG(plays) > 20;
 
+--------+------------+
| winavg | AVG(plays) |
+--------+------------+
| 0.2500 | 26.0000 |
| 0.3636 | 22.0000 |
+--------+------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

'DBINSERT - Default &amp; Duplicate ValuesDefault Values
 
If the SQL_MODE contains STRICT_TRANS_TABLES and you are
inserting into a transactional table (like InnoDB), or if
the SQL_MODE contains STRICT_ALL_TABLES, all NOT NULL
columns which does not have a DEFAULT value (and is not
AUTO_INCREMENT) must be explicitly referenced in INSERT
statements. If not, an error like this is produced:
 
ERROR 1364 (HY000): Field 'col' doesn't have a default
value
 
In all other cases, if a NOT NULL column without a DEFAULT
value is not referenced, an empty value will be inserted
(for example, 0 for INTEGER columns and '' for CHAR
columns). See NULL Values in MariaDB:Inserting for examples.
 
If a NOT NULL column having a DEFAULT value is not
referenced, NULL will be inserted.
 
If a NULL column having a DEFAULT value is not referenced,
its default value will be inserted. It is also possible to
explicitly assign the default value using the DEFAULT
keyword or the DEFAULT() function.
 
If the DEFAULT keyword is used but the column does not have
a DEFAULT value, an error like this is produced:
 
ERROR 1364 (HY000): Field 'col' doesn't have a default
value
 
Duplicate Values
 
By default, if you try to insert a duplicate row and there
is a UNIQUE index, INSERT stops and an error like this is
produced:
 
ERROR 1062 (23000): Duplicate entry 'dup_value' for key
'col'
 
To handle duplicates you can use the IGNORE clause, INSERT
ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE or the REPLACE statement. Note that
the IGNORE and DELAYED options are ignored when you use ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.

The INSERT statement is used to insert new rows into an
existing table. The INSERT ... VALUES
and INSERT ... SET forms of the statement insert rows based
on explicitly specified values. The INSERT ... SELECT form
inserts rows selected from another table or tables. INSERT
... SELECT is discussed further in the INSERT ... SELECT
article.
 
The table name can be specified in the form db_name.tbl_name
or, if a default database is selected, in the form tbl_name
(see Identifier Qualifiers). This allows to use INSERT ...
SELECT to copy rows between different databases.
 
The PARTITION clause was introduced in MariaDB 10.0. It can
be used in both the INSERT and the SELECT part. See
Partition Pruning and Selection for details.
 
The columns list is optional. It specifies which values are
explicitly inserted, and in which order. If this clause is
not specified, all values must be explicitly specified, in
the same order they are listed in the table definition.
 
The list of value follow the VALUES or VALUE keyword (which
are interchangeable, regardless how much values you want to
insert), and is wrapped by parenthesis. The values must be
listed in the same order as the columns list. It is possible
to specify more than one list to insert more than one rows
with a single statement. If many rows are inserted, this is
a speed optimization.
 
For one-row statements, the SET clause may be more simple,
because you don't need to remember the columns order. All
values are specified in the form col = expr.
 
Values can also be specified in the form of a SQL expression
or subquery. However, the subquery cannot access the same
table that is named in the INTO clause.
 
If you use the LOW_PRIORITY keyword, execution of the INSERT
is delayed until no other clients are reading from the
table. If you use the HIGH_PRIORITY keyword, the statement
has the same priority as SELECTs. This affects only storage
engines that use only table-level locking (MyISAM, MEMORY,
MERGE). However, if one of these keywords is specified,
concurrent inserts cannot be used. See HIGH_PRIORITY and
LOW_PRIORITY clauses for details.

Examples

'Doe');
 
Inserting more than 1 row at a time:
 
INSERT INTO tbl_name VALUES (1, "row 1"), (2, "row 2");
 
Using the SET clause:
 
INSERT INTO person SET first_name = 'John', last_name =
'Doe';
 
SELECTing from another table:
 
INSERT INTO contractor SELECT * FROM person WHERE status =
'c';

&0INSERT IGNOREIgnoring Errors
 
Normally INSERT stops and rolls back when it encounters an
error.
 
By using the IGNORE keyword all errors are converted to
warnings, which will not stop inserts of additional rows.
 
The IGNORE and DELAYED options are ignored when you use ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.
 
Incompatibilities
 
MariaDB until 5.5.28
MySQL and MariaDB before 5.5.28 didn't give warnings for
duplicate key errors when using IGNORE.
You can get the old behaviour if you set OLD_MODE to
NO_DUP_KEY_WARNINGS_WITH_IGNORE
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE t1 (x INT UNIQUE);
 
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES(1),(2);
 
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES(2),(3);
ERROR 1062 (23000): Duplicate entry '2' for key 'x'

1INSERT DELAYEDSyntax
------ 
INSERT DELAYED ...
 
Description
----------- 
The DELAYED option for the INSERT
statement is a MariaDB/MySQL extension to standard SQL that
is very useful if you have
clients that cannot or need not wait for the INSERT to
complete. This is a common situation when you use MariaDB
for logging and you
also periodically run SELECT and UPDATE
statements that take a long time to complete.
 
When a client uses INSERT DELAYED, it gets an okay from the
server at once, and the row is queued to be inserted when
the table is not in
use by any other thread.
 
Another major benefit of using INSERT DELAYED is that
inserts from many clients are bundled together and written
in one block. This
is much faster than performing many separate inserts.
 
Note that INSERT DELAYED is slower than a normal
 INSERT if the table is not otherwise in use. There is also
the additional overhead for the server to handle a separate
thread for each
table for which there are delayed rows. This means that you
should use
INSERT DELAYED only when you are really sure that you need
it.
 
The queued rows are held only in memory until they are
inserted into the table.
This means that if you terminate mysqld forcibly (for
example, with kill -9) or
if mysqld dies unexpectedly, any queued rows that have not
been written to disk
are lost.
 
The number of concurrent INSERT DELAYED threads is limited
by the max_delayed_threads server system variables. If it is
set to 0, INSERT DELAYED is disabled. The session value can
be equal to the global value, or 0 to disable this statement
for the current session. If this limit has been reached, the
DELAYED clause will be silently ignore for subsequent
statements (no error will be produced).
 
There are some constraints on the use of DELAYED:
INSERT DELAYED works only with MyISAM, MEMORY, ARCHIVE,
 and BLACKHOLE tables. If you execute INSERT DELAYED with
another storage engine, you will get an error like this:
ERROR 1616 (HY000): DELAYED option not supported for table
'tab_name'
For MyISAM tables, if there are no free blocks in the middle
of the data
 file, concurrent SELECT and INSERT statements are
supported. Under these
 circumstances, you very seldom need to use INSERT DELAYED
 with MyISAM.
INSERT DELAYED should be used only for
 INSERT statements that specify value lists. The server
 ignores DELAYED for INSERT ... SELECT
 or INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE statements.
Because the INSERT DELAYED statement returns immediately,
 before the rows are inserted, you cannot use
 LAST_INSERT_ID() to get the
 AUTO_INCREMENT value that the statement might generate.
DELAYED rows are not visible to SELECT
 statements until they actually have been inserted.
After INSERT DELAYED, ROW_COUNT() returns the number of the
rows you tried to insert, not the number of the successful
writes.
DELAYED is ignored on slave replication servers, so that 
 INSERT DELAYED is treated as a normal
 INSERT on slaves. This is because
 DELAYED could cause the slave to have different data than
 the master. INSERT DELAYED statements are not safe for
replication.
Pending INSERT DELAYED statements are lost if a table is
 write locked and ALTER TABLE is used to modify the table
structure.
INSERT DELAYED is not supported for views. If you try, you
will get an error like this: ERROR 1347 (HY000):
'view_name' is not BASE TABLE
INSERT DELAYED is not supported for partitioned tables.
INSERT DELAYED is not supported within stored programs.

U0INSERT SELECTSyntax
------ 
INSERT [LOW_PRIORITY | HIGH_PRIORITY] [IGNORE]
 [INTO] tbl_name [(col_name,...)]
 SELECT ...
 [ ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE col_name=expr, ... ]
 
Description
----------- 
With INSERT ... SELECT, you can quickly insert many rows
into a table from one or more other tables. For example:
 
INSERT INTO tbl_temp2 (fld_id)
 SELECT tbl_temp1.fld_order_id
 FROM tbl_temp1 WHERE tbl_temp1.fld_order_id > 100;
 
tbl_name can also be specified in the form db_name.tbl_name
(see Identifier Qualifiers). This allows to copy rows
between different databases.
 
If the new table has a primary key or UNIQUE indexes, you
can use IGNORE to handle duplicate key errors during the
query. The newer values will not be inserted if an identical
value already exists.
 
REPLACE can be used instead of INSERT to prevent duplicates
on UNIQUE indexes by deleting old values. In that case, ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE cannot be used.
 
INSERT ... SELECT works for tables which already exist. To
create a table for a given resultset, you can use CREATE
TABLE ... SELECT.
 


URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/insert-select/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/insert-select/�
	,INTERSECTINTERSECT was introduced in MariaDB 10.3.0.
 
The result of an intersect is the intersection of right and
left SELECT results, i.e. only records that are present in
both result sets will be included in the result of the
operation.
 
Syntax
------ 
SELECT ...
(INTERSECT | EXCEPT | UNION [ALL | DISTINCT]) SELECT ...
[(INTERSECT | EXCEPT | UNION [ALL | DISTINCT]) SELECT ...]
[ORDER BY [column [, column ...]]]
[LIMIT {[offset,] row_count | row_count OFFSET offset}]
 
Please note:
ALL is not supported by INTERSECT (and it is difficult to
make sense of ALL with INTERSECT).
Brackets for explicit operation precedence are not
supported; use a subquery in the FROM clause as a
workaround).
 
Description
----------- 
MariaDB has supported INTERSECT (as well as EXCEPT) in
addition to UNION since MariaDB 10.3.
 
All behavior for naming columns, ORDER BY and LIMIT is the
same as for UNION.
 
INTERSECT implicitly supposes a DISTINCT operation.
 
The result of an intersect is the intersection of right and
left SELECT results, i.e. only records that are present in
both result sets will be included in the result of the
operation.
 
INTERSECT has higher precedence than UNION and EXCEPT. If
possible it will be executed linearly but if not it will be
translated to a subquery in the FROM clause:
 
(select a,b from t1)
union
(select c,d from t2)
intersect
(select e,f from t3)
union
(select 4,4);
 
will be translated to:
 
(select a,b from t1)
union
select c,d from
 ((select c,d from t2)
 intersect
 (select e,f from t3)) dummy_subselect
union
(select 4,4)
 

 
Parentheses
 
From MariaDB 10.4.0, parentheses can be used to specify
precedence. Before this, a syntax error would be returned.
 
Examples
-------- 
Show customers which are employees:
 
(SELECT e_name AS name, email FROM employees)
INTERSECT
(SELECT c_name AS name, email FROM customers);
 
Difference between UNION, EXCEPT and INTERSECT:
 
CREATE TABLE seqs (i INT);
INSERT INTO seqs VALUES (1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6);
 
SELECT i FROM seqs WHERE i =3;
 
+------+
| i |
+------+
| 1 |
| 2 |
| 3 |
| 4 |
| 5 |
| 6 |
+------+
 
SELECT i FROM seqs WHERE i =3;
 
+------+

+------+
| 1 |
| 2 |
+------+
 
SELECT i FROM seqs WHERE i =3;
 
+------+
| i |
+------+
| 3 |
+------+
 
Parentheses for specifying precedence, from MariaDB 10.4.0
 
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t1 (a INT);
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t2 (b INT);
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t3 (c INT);
 
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1),(2),(3),(4);
INSERT INTO t2 VALUES (5),(6);

�AINSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATESyntax
------ 
INSERT [LOW_PRIORITY | DELAYED | HIGH_PRIORITY] [IGNORE]
 [INTO] tbl_name [PARTITION (partition_list)] [(col,...)]
 {VALUES | VALUE} ({expr | DEFAULT},...),(...),...
 [ ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE

 [INTO] tbl_name [PARTITION (partition_list)] [(col,...)]
 SELECT ...
 [ ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE
 col=expr
 [, col=expr] ... ]
 
Description
----------- 
INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE is a MariaDB/MySQL
extension to the INSERT statement that, if it finds a
duplicate unique or primary key, will instead perform an
UPDATE.
 
The row/s affected value is reported as 1 if a row is
inserted, and 2 if a row is updated, unless the API's
CLIENT_FOUND_ROWS flag is set.
 
If more than one unique index is matched, only the first is
updated. It is not recommended to use this statement on
tables with more than one unique index.
 
If the table has an AUTO_INCREMENT primary key and the
statement inserts or updates a row, the LAST_INSERT_ID()
function returns its AUTO_INCREMENT value.
 
The VALUES() function can only be used in a ON DUPLICATE KEY
UPDATE clause and has no meaning in any other context. It
returns the column values from the INSERT portion of the
statement. This function is particularly useful for
multi-rows inserts.
 
The IGNORE and DELAYED options are ignored when you use ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.
 
The PARTITION clause was introduced in MariaDB 10.0. See
Partition Pruning and Selection for details.
 
This statement activates INSERT and UPDATE triggers. See
Trigger Overview for details.
 
See also a similar statement, REPLACE.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE ins_duplicate (id INT PRIMARY KEY, animal
VARCHAR(30));
INSERT INTO ins_duplicate VALUES (1,'Aardvark'),
(2,'Cheetah'), (3,'Zebra');
 
If there is no existing key, the statement runs as a regular
INSERT:
 
INSERT INTO ins_duplicate VALUES (4,'Gorilla') ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE animal='Gorilla';
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.07 sec)
 
SELECT * FROM ins_duplicate;
+----+----------+
| id | animal |
+----+----------+
| 1 | Aardvark |
| 2 | Cheetah |
| 3 | Zebra |
| 4 | Gorilla |
+----+----------+
 
A regular INSERT with a primary key value of 1 will fail,
due to the existing key:
 
INSERT INTO ins_duplicate VALUES (1,'Antelope');
ERROR 1062 (23000): Duplicate entry '1' for key
'PRIMARY'
 
However, we can use an INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE
instead:
 
INSERT INTO ins_duplicate VALUES (1,'Antelope') ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE animal='Antelope';
Query OK, 2 rows affected (0.09 sec)
 
Note that there are two rows reported as affected, but this
refers only to the UPDATE.
 
SELECT * FROM ins_duplicate;
+----+----------+
| id | animal |
+----+----------+
| 1 | Antelope |
| 2 | Cheetah |
| 3 | Zebra |
| 4 | Gorilla |
+----+----------+
 
Adding a second unique column:
 
ALTER TABLE ins_duplicate ADD id2 INT;
UPDATE ins_duplicate SET id2=id+10;
ALTER TABLE ins_duplicate ADD UNIQUE KEY(id2);
 
Where two rows match the unique keys match, only the first
is updated. This can be unsafe and is not recommended unless
you are certain what you are doing. Note that the warning
shown below appears in MariaDB 5.5 and before, but has been
removed in MariaDB 10.0, as MariaDB now assumes that the
keys are checked in order, as shown in SHOW CREATE TABLE.
 
INSERT INTO ins_duplicate VALUES (2,'Lion',13) ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE animal='Lion';
Query OK, 2 rows affected, 1 warning (0.06 sec)

Although the third row with an id of 3 has an id2 of 13,
which also matched, it was not updated.
 
Changing id to an auto_increment field. If a new row is
added, the auto_increment is moved forward. If the row is
updated, it remains the same.

U.JOIN SyntaxDescription
----------- 
MariaDB supports the following JOIN syntaxes for
the table_references part of SELECT statements and
multiple-table DELETE and UPDATE statements:
 
table_references:
 table_reference [, table_reference] ...
 
table_reference:
 table_factor
 | join_table
 
table_factor:
 tbl_name [PARTITION (partition_list)]
 [query_system_time_period_specification] [[AS] alias]

[AS] alias
 | ( table_references )
 | { ON table_reference LEFT OUTER JOIN table_reference
 ON conditional_expr }
 
join_table:

[join_condition]
 | table_reference STRAIGHT_JOIN table_factor
 | table_reference STRAIGHT_JOIN table_factor ON
conditional_expr
 | table_reference {LEFT|RIGHT} [OUTER] JOIN table_reference
join_condition
 | table_reference NATURAL [{LEFT|RIGHT} [OUTER]] JOIN
table_factor
 
join_condition:
 ON conditional_expr
 | USING (column_list)
 
query_system_time_period_specification:
 FOR SYSTEM_TIME AS OF point_in_time
 | FOR SYSTEM_TIME BETWEEN point_in_time AND point_in_time
 | FOR SYSTEM_TIME FROM point_in_time TO point_in_time
 | FOR SYSTEM_TIME ALL
 
point_in_time:
 [TIMESTAMP] expression
 | TRANSACTION expression
 
index_hint_list:
 index_hint [, index_hint] ...
 
index_hint:
 USE {INDEX|KEY}
 [{FOR {JOIN|ORDER BY|GROUP BY}] ([index_list])
 | IGNORE {INDEX|KEY}
 [{FOR {JOIN|ORDER BY|GROUP BY}] (index_list)
 | FORCE {INDEX|KEY}
 [{FOR {JOIN|ORDER BY|GROUP BY}] (index_list)
 
index_list:
 index_name [, index_name] ...
 
A table reference is also known as a join expression.
 
Each table can also be specified as db_name.tabl_name. This
allows to write queries which involve multiple databases.
See Identifier Qualifiers for syntax details.
 
The syntax of table_factor is extended in comparison with
the
SQL Standard. The latter accepts only table_reference, not a
list of them inside a pair of parentheses.
 
This is a conservative extension if we consider each comma
in a list of
table_reference items as equivalent to an inner join. For
example:
 
SELECT * FROM t1 LEFT JOIN (t2, t3, t4)
 ON (t2.a=t1.a AND t3.b=t1.b AND t4.c=t1.c)
 
is equivalent to:
 
SELECT * FROM t1 LEFT JOIN (t2 CROSS JOIN t3 CROSS JOIN t4)
 ON (t2.a=t1.a AND t3.b=t1.b AND t4.c=t1.c)
 
In MariaDB, CROSS JOIN is a syntactic equivalent to
INNER JOIN (they can replace each other). In standard SQL,
they are not equivalent. INNER JOIN is used with an
ON clause, CROSS JOIN is used otherwise.
 
In general, parentheses can be ignored in join expressions
containing only
inner join operations. MariaDB also supports nested joins
(see
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/nested-join-optimization.html).
 
See System-versioned tables for more information
about FOR SYSTEM_TIME syntax.
 
Index hints can be specified to affect how the MariaDB
optimizer makes
use of indexes. For more information, see How to force query
plans.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT left_tbl.*
 FROM left_tbl LEFT JOIN right_tbl ON left_tbl.id =
right_tbl.id
 WHERE right_tbl.id IS NULL;

e	+LOAD XMLSyntax
------ 
LOAD XML [LOW_PRIORITY | CONCURRENT] [LOCAL] INFILE
'file_name'
 [REPLACE | IGNORE]
 INTO TABLE [db_name.]tbl_name
 [CHARACTER SET charset_name]
 [ROWS IDENTIFIED BY '']
 [IGNORE number {LINES | ROWS}]
 [(column_or_user_var,...)]
 [SET col_name = expr,...]
 
Description
----------- 
The LOAD XML statement reads data from an XML file into a
table. The
file_name must be given as a literal string. The tagname in
the
optional ROWS IDENTIFIED BY clause must also be given as a
literal
string, and must be surrounded by angle brackets (< and >).
 
LOAD XML acts as the complement of running the mysql client
in XML
output mode (that is, starting the client with the --xml
option). To
write data from a table to an XML file, use a command such
as the
following one from the system shell:
 
shell> mysql --xml -e 'SELECT * FROM mytable' > file.xml
 
To read the file back into a table, use LOAD XML INFILE. By
default,
the  element is considered to be the equivalent of a
database
table row; this can be changed using the ROWS IDENTIFIED BY
clause.
 
This statement supports three different XML formats:
Column names as attributes and column values as attribute
values:
 
Column names as tags and column values as the content of
these tags:
 
 value1
 value2
 
Column names are the name attributes of  tags, and values
are
 the contents of these tags:
 
 value1
 value2
 
 This is the format used by other tools, such as mysqldump.
 
All 3 formats can be used in the same XML file; the import
routine
automatically detects the format for each row and interprets
it
correctly. Tags are matched based on the tag or attribute
name and the
column name.
 
The following clauses work essentially the same way for LOAD
XML as
they do for LOAD DATA:
LOW_PRIORITY or CONCURRENT
LOCAL
REPLACE or IGNORE
CHARACTER SET
(column_or_user_var,...)
SET
 
See LOAD DATA for more information about these clauses.
 
The IGNORE number LINES or IGNORE number ROWS clause causes
the first
number rows in the XML file to be skipped. It is analogous
to the LOAD
DATA statement's IGNORE ... LINES clause.
 
If the LOW_PRIORITY keyword is used, insertions are delayed
until no other clients are reading from the table. The
CONCURRENT keyword allowes the use of concurrent inserts.
These clauses cannot be specified together.
 
This statement activates INSERT triggers.

���
�(LIMITDescription
----------- 
Use the LIMIT clause to restrict the number of returned
rows. When you use a single
integer n with LIMIT, the first n rows will be returned. Use
the ORDER BY
clause to control which rows come first. You can also select
a number of rows after an offset
using either of the following:
 
LIMIT offset, row_count
LIMIT row_count OFFSET offset
 
When you provide an offset m with a limit n, the first m
rows will be ignored, and the
following n rows will be returned.
 
Executing an UPDATE with the LIMIT clause is not safe for
replication.
 
Since MariaDB 10.0.11, LIMIT 0 has been an exception to this
rule (see MDEV-6170).
 
Beginning in MariaDB 5.5.21, there is a LIMIT ROWS EXAMINED
optimization which provides the
means to terminate the execution of SELECT statements which
examine too
many rows, and thus use too many resources. See LIMIT ROWS
EXAMINED.
 
Multi-Table Updates
 
Until MariaDB 10.3.1, it was not possible to use LIMIT (or
ORDER BY) in a multi-table UPDATE statement. This
restriction was lifted in MariaDB 10.3.2.
 
GROUP_CONCAT
 
Starting from MariaDB 10.3.3, it is possible to use LIMIT
with GROUP_CONCAT().
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE members (name VARCHAR(20));
INSERT INTO members
VALUES('Jagdish'),('Kenny'),('Rokurou'),('Immaculada');
 
SELECT * FROM members;
 
+------------+
| name |
+------------+
| Jagdish |
| Kenny |
| Rokurou |
| Immaculada |
+------------+
 
Select the first two names (no ordering specified):
 
SELECT * FROM members LIMIT 2;
 
+---------+
| name |
+---------+
| Jagdish |
| Kenny |
+---------+
 
All the names in alphabetical order:
 
SELECT * FROM members ORDER BY name;
 
+------------+
| name |
+------------+
| Immaculada |
| Jagdish |
| Kenny |
| Rokurou |
+------------+
 
The first two names, ordered alphabetically:
 
SELECT * FROM members ORDER BY name LIMIT 2;
 
+------------+
| name |
+------------+
| Immaculada |
| Jagdish |
+------------+
 
The third name, ordered alphabetically (the first name would
be offset zero, so the third is offset two):
 
SELECT * FROM members ORDER BY name LIMIT 2,1;
 
+-------+
| name |
+-------+
| Kenny |
+-------+
 
From MariaDB 10.3.2, LIMIT can be used in a multi-table
update:
 
CREATE TABLE warehouse (product_id INT, qty INT);
INSERT INTO warehouse VALUES
(1,100),(2,100),(3,100),(4,100);
 
CREATE TABLE store (product_id INT, qty INT);
INSERT INTO store VALUES (1,5),(2,5),(3,5),(4,5);
 
UPDATE warehouse,store SET warehouse.qty = warehouse.qty-2,
store.qty = store.qty+2 
 WHERE (warehouse.product_id = store.product_id AND
store.product_id >= 1) 
 ORDER BY store.product_id DESC LIMIT 2;
 
SELECT * FROM warehouse;
 
+------------+------+
| product_id | qty |
+------------+------+
| 1 | 100 |
| 2 | 100 |
| 3 | 98 |
| 4 | 98 |
+------------+------+
 
SELECT * FROM store;
 
+------------+------+
| product_id | qty |
+------------+------+
| 1 | 5 |
| 2 | 5 |
| 3 | 7 |
| 4 | 7 |
+------------+------+
 
From MariaDB 10.3.3, LIMIT can be used with GROUP_CONCAT,
so, for example, given the following table:
 
CREATE TABLE d (dd DATE, cc INT);
 
INSERT INTO d VALUES ('2017-01-01',1);
INSERT INTO d VALUES ('2017-01-02',2);
INSERT INTO d VALUES ('2017-01-04',3);
 
the following query:
 
SELECT SUBSTRING_INDEX(GROUP_CONCAT(CONCAT_WS(":",dd,cc)
ORDER BY cc DESC),",",1) FROM d;
 
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| SUBSTRING_INDEX(GROUP_CONCAT(CONCAT_WS(":",dd,cc) ORDER
BY cc DESC),",",1) |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 2017-01-04:3 |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
can be more simply rewritten as:
 
SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(CONCAT_WS(":",dd,cc) ORDER BY cc DESC
LIMIT 1) FROM d;
 
+-------------------------------------------------------------+
| GROUP_CONCAT(CONCAT_WS(":",dd,cc) ORDER BY cc DESC LIMIT
1) |
+-------------------------------------------------------------+
| 2017-01-04:3 |
+-------------------------------------------------------------+

and are essentially temporary named result sets. There are
two kinds of CTEs: Non-Recursive, which this article covers;
and Recursive.
 
Common table expressions were introduced in MariaDB 10.2.1.
 
Non-Recursive CTEs
 
The WITH keyword signifies a CTE. It is given a name,
followed by a body (the main query) as follows:
 
CTEs are similar to derived tables. For example
 
WITH engineers AS 
 ( SELECT * FROM employees
 WHERE dept = 'Engineering' )
 
SELECT * FROM engineers
WHERE ...
 
SELECT * FROM
 ( SELECT * FROM employees
 WHERE dept = 'Engineering' ) AS engineers
WHERE
...
 
A non-recursive CTE is basically a query-local VIEW. There
are several advantages and caveats to them. The syntax is
more readable than nested FROM (SELECT ...).
A CTE can refer to another and it can be referenced from
multiple places.
 
A CTE referencing Another CTE
 
Using this format makes for a more readable SQL than a
nested FROM(SELECT ...) clause. Below is an example of this:
 
WITH engineers AS (
SELECT * FROM employees
WHERE dept IN('Development','Support') ),
eu_engineers AS ( SELECT * FROM engineers WHERE country
IN('NL',...) )
SELECT
...
FROM eu_engineers;
 
Multiple Uses of a CTE
 
This can be an 'anti-self join', for example:
 
WITH engineers AS (
SELECT * FROM employees
WHERE dept IN('Development','Support') )
 
SELECT * FROM engineers E1
WHERE NOT EXISTS
 (SELECT 1 FROM engineers E2
 WHERE E2.country=E1.country
 AND E2.name  E1.name );
 
Or, for year-over-year comparisons, for example:
 
WITH sales_product_year AS (
SELECT product, YEAR(ship_date) AS year,
SUM(price) AS total_amt
FROM item_sales
GROUP BY product, year )
 
SELECT *
FROM sales_product_year CUR,
sales_product_year PREV,
WHERE CUR.product=PREV.product 
AND CUR.year=PREV.year + 1 
AND CUR.total_amt > PREV.total_amt
 
Another use is to compare individuals against their group.
Below is an example of how this might be executed:
 
WITH sales_product_year AS (
SELECT product,
YEAR(ship_date) AS year,
SUM(price) AS total_amt
FROM item_sales
GROUP BY product, year
)
 
SELECT * 
FROM sales_product_year S1
WHERE
total_amt > 
 (SELECT 0.1 * SUM(total_amt)
 FROM sales_product_year S2
 WHERE S2.year = S1.year)

 [IGNORE number LINES]
 [(col_name_or_user_var,...)]
 [SET col_name = expr,...]
 
Description
----------- 
Reads rows from a text file into the designated table on the
database at a very high speed. The file name must be given
as a literal string. 
 
Files are written to disk using the SELECT INTO OUTFILE
statement. You can then read the files back into a table
using the LOAD DATA INFILE statement. The FIELDS and LINES
clauses are the same in both statements. These clauses are
optional, but if both are specified then the FIELDS clause
must precede LINES.
 
In releases after MariaDB 5.5, LOAD DATA INFILE is unsafe
for statement-based replication.
 
Executing this statement activates INSERT triggers.
 
REPLACE and IGNORE
 
In cases where you load data from a file into a table that
already contains data and has a Primary Key, you may
encounter issues where the statement attempts to insert a
row with a Primary Key that already exists. When this
happens, the statement fails with Error 1064, protecting the
data already on the table. In cases where you want MariaDB
to overwrite duplicates, use the REPLACE keyword.
 
The REPLACE keyword works like the REPLACE statement. Here,
the statement attempts to load the data from the file. If
the row does not exist, it adds it to the table. If the row
contains an existing Primary Key, it replaces the table
data. That is, in the event of a conflict, it assumes the
file contains the desired row. 
 
This operation can cause a degradation in load speed by a
factor of 20 or more if the part that has already been
loaded is larger than the capacity of the InnoDB Buffer
Pool. This happens because it causes a lot of turnaround in
the Buffer Pool.
 
Use the IGNORE keyword when you want to skip any rows that
contain a conflicting Primary Key. Here, the statement
attempts to load the data from the file. If the row does not
exist, it adds it to the table. If the row contains an
existing Primary Key, it ignores the addition request and
moves on to the next. That is, in the event of a conflict,
it assumes the table contains the desired row.
 
LOCAL
 
When you issue this statement, the Server attempts to read
files from the host file system. Using the LOCAL keyword,
the statement instead attempts to read files from the
client. This allows you to insert files from the client's
local file system into the database.
 
In the event that you don't want the server to permit this
operation, (such as for security reasons), you can disable
support using local_infile. When this system variable is set
to 0, MariaDB rejects LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE statements,
failing with an error message.
 
Character-sets
 
When the statement opens the file, it attempts to read the
contents using the default character-set, as defined by the
character_set_database system variable. 
 
In the cases where the file was written using a
character-set other than the default, you can specify the
character-set to use with the CHARACTER SET clause in the
statement. It ignores character-sets specified by the SET
NAMES statement and by the character_set_client system
variable. Setting the CHARACTER SET clause to a value of
binary indicates "no conversion."
 
The statement interprets all fields in the file as having
the same character-set, regardless of the column data type.
To properly interpret file contents, you must ensure that it
was written with the correct character-set. If you write a
data file with mysqldump -T or with the SELECT INTO OUTFILE
statement with the mysql client, be sure to use the
--default-character-set option, so that the output is
written with the desired character-set.
 
When using mixed character sets, use the CHARACTER SET
clause in both SELECT INTO OUTFILE and LOAD DATA INFILE to
ensure that MariaDB correctly interprets the escape
sequences.
 
The character_set_filesystem system variable controls the
interpretation of the filename.
 
It is currently not possible to load data files that use the
ucs2 character set.
 
Priority and Concurrency
 
In loading data from a file, there's a risk that the
statement will attempt insertions concurrent with reads from
another client, which can result in the read serving a
result-set that contains only part of the update from the
LOAD DATA INFILE statement.
 
Using the LOW_PRIORITY keyword, MariaDB delays insertions
until no other clients are reading from the table.
Alternatively, you can use the CONCURRENT keyword to perform
concurrent insertion.
 
The LOW_PRIORITY and CONCURRENT keywords are mutually
exclusive. They cannot be used in the same statement.
 
Progress Reporting
 
Since MariaDB 5.3, the LOAD DATA INFILE statement supports
progress reporting. You may find this useful when dealing
with long-running operations. Using another client you can
issue a SHOW PROCESSLIST query to check the progress of the
data load.
 
Using mysqlimport
 
MariaDB ships with a separate utility for loading data from
files: mysqlimport. It operates by sending LOAD DATA INFILE
statements to the server.
 
Using mysqlimport you can compress the file using the
--compress option, to get better performance over slow
networks, providing both the client and server support the
compressed protocol. Use the --local option to load from the
local file system.
 
Indexing
 
In cases where the storage engine supports ALTER TABLE...
DISABLE KEYS statements, the LOAD DATA INFILE statement
automatically disables indexes during the execution.

+ORDER BYDescription
----------- 
Use the ORDER BY clause to order a resultset, such as that
are returned from a SELECT
statement. You can specify just a column or use any
expression with functions. If you are
using the GROUP BY clause, you can use grouping functions in
ORDER BY.
Ordering is done after grouping.
 
You can use multiple ordering expressions, separated by
commas. Rows will be sorted by
the first expression, then by the second expression if they
have the same value for the
first, and so on.
 
You can use the keywords ASC and DESC after each ordering
expression to
force that ordering to be ascending or descending,
respectively. Ordering is ascending
by default.
 
You can also use a single integer as the ordering
expression. If you use an integer n,
the results will be ordered by the nth column in the select
expression.
 
When string values are compared, they are compared as if by
the STRCMP
function. STRCMP ignores trailing whitespace and may
normalize
characters and ignore case, depending on the collation in
use.
 
Starting from MariaDB 5.5.35 duplicated entries in the ORDER
BY clause are removed. MySQL 5.6 also removes duplicated
fields.
 
ORDER BY can also be used to order the activities of a
DELETE or UPDATE statement (usually with the LIMIT clause). 
 
Until MariaDB 10.3.1, it was not possible to use ORDER BY
(or LIMIT) in a multi-table UPDATE statement. This
restriction was lifted in MariaDB 10.3.2.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE seq (i INT, x VARCHAR(1));
INSERT INTO seq VALUES (1,'a'), (2,'b'), (3,'b'),
(4,'f'), (5,'e');
 
SELECT * FROM seq ORDER BY i;
 
+------+------+
| i | x |
+------+------+
| 1 | a |
| 2 | b |
| 3 | b |
| 4 | f |
| 5 | e |
+------+------+
 
SELECT * FROM seq ORDER BY i DESC;
 
+------+------+
| i | x |
+------+------+
| 5 | e |
| 4 | f |
| 3 | b |
| 2 | b |
| 1 | a |
+------+------+
 
SELECT * FROM seq ORDER BY x,i;
 
+------+------+
| i | x |
+------+------+
| 1 | a |
| 2 | b |
| 3 | b |
| 5 | e |
| 4 | f |
+------+------+
 
ORDER BY in an UPDATE statement, in conjunction with LIMIT:
 
UPDATE seq SET x='z' WHERE x='b' ORDER BY i DESC LIMIT
1;
 
SELECT * FROM seq;
 
+------+------+
| i | x |
+------+------+
| 1 | a |
| 2 | b |
| 3 | z |
| 4 | f |
| 5 | e |
+------+------+
 
From MariaDB 10.3.2, ORDER BY can be used in a multi-table
update:
 
CREATE TABLE warehouse (product_id INT, qty INT);
INSERT INTO warehouse VALUES
(1,100),(2,100),(3,100),(4,100);
 
CREATE TABLE store (product_id INT, qty INT);
INSERT INTO store VALUES (1,5),(2,5),(3,5),(4,5);
 
UPDATE warehouse,store SET warehouse.qty = warehouse.qty-2,
store.qty = store.qty+2 
 WHERE (warehouse.product_id = store.product_id AND
store.product_id >= 1) 
 ORDER BY store.product_id DESC LIMIT 2;
 
SELECT * FROM warehouse;
 
+------------+------+
| product_id | qty |
+------------+------+
| 1 | 100 |
| 2 | 100 |
| 3 | 98 |
| 4 | 98 |
+------------+------+
 
SELECT * FROM store;
 
+------------+------+
| product_id | qty |
+------------+------+
| 1 | 5 |
| 2 | 5 |
| 3 | 7 |
| 4 | 7 |
+------------+------+

%*REPLACESyntax
------ 
REPLACE [LOW_PRIORITY | DELAYED]
 [INTO] tbl_name [PARTITION (partition_list)] [(col,...)]
 {VALUES | VALUE} ({expr | DEFAULT},...),(...),...
 
Or:
 
REPLACE [LOW_PRIORITY | DELAYED]
 [INTO] tbl_name [PARTITION (partition_list)]
 SET col={expr | DEFAULT}, ...
 
Or:
 
REPLACE [LOW_PRIORITY | DELAYED]
 [INTO] tbl_name [PARTITION (partition_list)] [(col,...)]
 SELECT ...
 
Description
----------- 
 REPLACE works exactly like
 INSERT, except that if an old row in the table
 has the same value as a new row for a PRIMARY KEY or a
 UNIQUE index, the old row is deleted before the new row is
 inserted. If the table has more than one UNIQUE keys, it is
possible that the new row conflicts with more than one row.
In this case, all conflicting rows will be deleted.
 
The table name can be specified in the form db_name.tbl_name
or, if a default database is selected, in the form tbl_name
(see Identifier Qualifiers). This allows to use REPLACE ...
SELECT to copy rows between different databases.
 
Basically it works like this:
 
BEGIN;
SELECT 1 FROM t1 WHERE key=# FOR UPDATE;
IF found-row
 DELETE FROM t1 WHERE key=# ;
 INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (...);
ENDIF
END;
 
The above can be replaced with:
 
REPLACE INTO t1 VALUES (...)
 
 REPLACE is a MariaDB/MySQL extension to the SQL standard.
It
 either inserts, or deletes and inserts. For other
MariaDB/MySQL extensions to
 standard SQL --- that also handle duplicate values --- see
IGNORE and INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.
 
Note that unless the table has a PRIMARY KEY or
 UNIQUE index, using a REPLACE statement
makes no sense. It becomes equivalent to INSERT, because
there is no index to be used to determine whether a new row
duplicates another.
 
Values for all columns are taken from the values specified
in the
 REPLACE statement. Any missing columns are set to their
default values, just as happens for INSERT. You cannot refer
to values from the current row and use them in the new row.
If you use an
assignment such as 'SET col = col + 1', the
reference to the column name on the right hand side is
treated as
 DEFAULT(col), so the assignment is equivalent to
 'SET col = DEFAULT(col) + 1'.
 
To use REPLACE, you must have both the
 INSERT and DELETE privileges
for the table.
 
There are some gotchas you should be aware of, before using
REPLACE:
If there is an AUTO_INCREMENT field, a new value will be
generated.
If there are foreign keys, ON DELETE action will be
activated by REPLACE.
Triggers on DELETE and INSERT will be activated by REPLACE.
 
To avoid some of these behaviors, you can use INSERT ... ON
DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.
 
The PARTITION clause was introduced in MariaDB 10.0. See
Partition Pruning and Selection for details.
 
This statement activates INSERT and DELETE triggers. See
Trigger Overview for details.

NRecursive Common Table Expressions OverviewRecursive Common Table Expressions have been supported since
MariaDB 10.2.2.
 
Common Table Expressions (CTEs) are a standard SQL feature,
and are essentially temporary named result sets. CTEs first
appeared in the SQL standard in 1999, and the first
implementations began appearing in 2007.
 
There are two kinds of CTEs:
Non-recursive
Recursive, which this article covers.
 
SQL is generally poor at recursive structures.
 
CTEs permit a query to reference itself. A recursive CTE
will repeatedly execute subsets of the data until it obtains
the complete result set. This makes it particularly useful
for handing hierarchical or tree-structured data.
 
Syntax example
 
WITH RECURSIVE signifies a recursive CTE. It is given a
name, followed by a body (the main query) as follows:
 

Computation
 
Given the following structure:
 
First execute the anchor part of the query:
 
Next, execute the recursive part of the query:
 

 

Summary so far
 
with recursive R as (
 select anchor_data
 union [all]
 select recursive_part
 from R, ...
)
select ...
Compute anchor_data
Compute recursive_part to get the new data
if (new data is non-empty) goto 2;
 
CAST to avoid truncating data
 
As currently implemented by MariaDB and by the SQL Standard,
data may be truncated if not correctly cast. It is necessary
to CAST the column to the correct width if the CTE's
recursive part produces wider values for a column than the
CTE's nonrecursive part. Some other DBMS give an error in
this situation, and MariaDB's behavior may change in future
- see MDEV-12325. See the examples below.
 
Examples
-------- 
Transitive closure - determining bus destinations
 
Sample data:
 
CREATE TABLE bus_routes (origin varchar(50), dst
varchar(50));
INSERT INTO bus_routes VALUES 
 ('New York', 'Boston'), 
 ('Boston', 'New York'), 
 ('New York', 'Washington'), 
 ('Washington', 'Boston'), 
 ('Washington', 'Raleigh');
 
Now, we want to return the bus destinations with New York as
the origin:
 
WITH RECURSIVE bus_dst as ( 
 SELECT origin as dst FROM bus_routes WHERE origin='New
York' 
 UNION
 SELECT bus_routes.dst FROM bus_routes, bus_dst WHERE
bus_dst.dst= bus_routes.origin 
) 
SELECT * FROM bus_dst;
 
+------------+
| dst |
+------------+
| New York |
| Boston |
| Washington |
| Raleigh |
+------------+
 
The above example is computed as follows:
 
First, the anchor data is calculated:
Starting from New York
Boston and Washington are added
 
Next, the recursive part:
Starting from Boston and then Washington
Raleigh is added
UNION excludes nodes that are already present.
 
Computing paths - determining bus routes
 
This time, we are trying to get bus routes such as “New
York -> Washington -> Raleigh”.
 
Using the same sample data as the previous example:
 
WITH RECURSIVE paths (cur_path, cur_dest) AS (
 SELECT origin, origin FROM bus_routes WHERE origin='New
York' 
 UNION
 SELECT CONCAT(paths.cur_path, ',', bus_routes.dst),
bus_routes.dst 
 FROM paths, bus_routes 
 WHERE paths.cur_dest = bus_routes.origin AND 
 LOCATE(bus_routes.dst, paths.cur_path)=0 
) 
SELECT * FROM paths;
 
+-----------------------------+------------+
| cur_path | cur_dest |
+-----------------------------+------------+
| New York | New York |
| New York,Boston | Boston |
| New York,Washington | Washington |
| New York,Washington,Boston | Boston |
| New York,Washington,Raleigh | Raleigh |
+-----------------------------+------------+
 
CAST to avoid data truncation
 
In the following example, data is truncated because the
results are not specifically cast to a wide enough type:
 
WITH RECURSIVE tbl AS (
 SELECT NULL AS col
 UNION
 SELECT "THIS NEVER SHOWS UP" AS col FROM tbl
)
+------+
| col |
+------+
| NULL |
| |
+------+
 
Explicitly use CAST to overcome this:
 
WITH RECURSIVE tbl AS (
 SELECT CAST(NULL AS CHAR(50)) AS col
 UNION SELECT "THIS NEVER SHOWS UP" AS col FROM tbl
) 
SELECT * FROM tbl;
 
+---------------------+
| col |
+---------------------+
| NULL |
| THIS NEVER SHOWS UP |
+---------------------+

�7SELECT INTO DUMPFILESyntax
------ 
SELECT ... INTO DUMPFILE 'file_path'
 
Description
----------- 
SELECT ... INTO DUMPFILE is a SELECT clause which writes the
resultset into a single unformatted row, without any
separators, in a file. The results will not be returned to
the client.
 
file_path can be an absolute path, or a relative path
starting from the data directory. It can only be specified
as a string literal, not as a variable. However, the
statement can be dynamically composed and executed as a
prepared statement to work around this limitation.
 
This statement is binary-safe and so is particularly useful
for writing BLOB values to file. It can be used, for
example, to copy an image or an audio document from the
database to a file. SELECT ... INTO FILE can be used to save
a text file.
 
The file must not exist. It cannot be overwritten. A user
needs the FILE privilege to run this statement. Also,
MariaDB needs permission to write files in the specified
location. If the secure_file_priv system variable is set to
a non-empty directory name, the file can only be written to
that directory.
 
Since MariaDB 5.1, the character_set_filesystem system
variable has controlled interpretation of file names that
are given as literal strings.
 
Example
 
SELECT _utf8'Hello world!' INTO DUMPFILE '/tmp/world';
 
SELECT LOAD_FILE('/tmp/world') AS world;
 
+--------------+
| world |
+--------------+
| Hello world! |

Description
----------- 
SELECT is used to retrieve rows selected from one or more
tables, and can include UNION statements and subqueries.
Each select_expr expression indicates a column or data that
you want to retrieve. You
must have at least one select expression. See Select
Expressions below.
 
The FROM clause indicates the table or tables from which to
retrieve rows.
Use either a single table name or a JOIN expression. See
JOIN
for details. If no table is involved, FROM DUAL can be
specified.
 
The PARTITION clause was introduced in MariaDB 10.0. See
Partition Pruning and Selection for details.
Each table can also be specified as db_name.tabl_name. Each
column can also be specified as tbl_name.col_name or even
db_name.tbl_name.col_name. This allows to write queries
which involve multiple databases. See Identifier Qualifiers
for syntax details.
 
The WHERE clause, if given, indicates the condition or
 conditions that rows must satisfy to be selected.
 where_condition is an expression that evaluates to true for
 each row to be selected. The statement selects all rows if
there is no WHERE
 clause.
In the WHERE clause, you can use any of the functions and
 operators that MariaDB supports, except for aggregate
(summary) functions. See Functions and Operators and
Functions and Modifiers for use with GROUP BY (aggregate).
 
Use the ORDER BY clause to order the results.
 
Use the LIMIT clause allows you to restrict the results to
only
a certain number of rows, optionally with an offset.
 
Use the GROUP BY and HAVING clauses to group
rows together when they have columns or computed values in
common.
 
SELECT can also be used to retrieve rows computed without
reference to
any table.
 
Select Expressions
 
A SELECT statement must contain one or more select
expressions, separated
by commas. Each select expression can be one of the
following:
The name of a column.
Any expression using functions and operators.
* to select all columns from all tables in the FROM clause.
tbl_name.* to select all columns from just the table
tbl_name.
 
When specifying a column, you can either use just the column
name or qualify the column
name with the name of the table using tbl_name.col_name. The
qualified form is
useful if you are joining multiple tables in the FROM
clause. If you do not qualify the
column names when selecting from multiple tables, MariaDB
will try to find the column in
each table. It is an error if that column name exists in
multiple tables.
 
You can quote column names using backticks. If you are
qualifying column names
with table names, quote each part separately as
`tbl_name`.`col_name`.
 
If you use any grouping functions
in any of the select expressions, all rows in your results
will be implicitly grouped, as if
you had used GROUP BY NULL.
 
DISTINCT
 
A query may produce some identical rows. By default, all
rows are retrieved, even when their values are the same. To
explicitly specify that you want to retrieve identical rows,
use the ALL option. If you want duplicates to be removed
from the resultset, use the DISTINCT option. DISTINCTROW is
a synonym for DISTINCT. See also COUNT DISTINCT and SELECT
UNIQUE in Oracle mode.
 
INTO
 
The INTO clause is used to specify that the query results
should be written to a file or variable.
SELECT INTO OUTFILE - formatting and writing the result to
an external file.
SELECT INTO DUMPFILE - binary-safe writing of the
unformatted results to an external file.
SELECT INTO Variable - selecting and setting variables.
 
The reverse of SELECT INTO OUTFILE is LOAD DATA.
 
WAIT/NOWAIT
 
Set the lock wait timeout. See WAIT and NOWAIT.
 

max_statement_time clause
 
By using max_statement_time in conjunction with SET
STATEMENT, it is possible to limit the execution time of
individual queries. For example:
 
SET STATEMENT max_statement_time=100 FOR 
 SELECT field1 FROM table_name ORDER BY field1;

[6SELECT INTO OUTFILESyntax
------ 
SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE 'file_name'
 [CHARACTER SET charset_name]
 [export_options]
 
export_options:
 [{FIELDS | COLUMNS}
 [TERMINATED BY 'string']
 [[OPTIONALLY] ENCLOSED BY 'char']
 [ESCAPED BY 'char']
 ]
 [LINES
 [STARTING BY 'string']
 [TERMINATED BY 'string']
 ]
 
Description
----------- 
SELECT INTO OUTFILE writes the resulting rows to a file, and
allows the use of column and row terminators to specify a
particular output format. The default is to terminate fields
with tabs (\t) and lines with newlines (\n).
 
The file must not exist. It cannot be overwritten. A user
needs the FILE privilege to run this statement. Also,
MariaDB needs permission to write files in the specified
location. If the secure_file_priv system variable is set to
a non-empty directory name, the file can only be written to
that directory.
 
The LOAD DATA INFILE statement complements SELECT INTO
OUTFILE.
 
Character-sets
 
The CHARACTER SET clause specifies the character set in
which the results are to be written. Without the clause, no
conversion takes place (the binary character set). In this
case, if there are multiple character sets, the output will
contain these too, and may not easily be able to be
reloaded.
 
In cases where you have two servers using different
character-sets, using SELECT INTO OUTFILE to transfer data
from one to the other can have unexpected results. To ensure
that MariaDB correctly interprets the escape sequences, use
the CHARACTER SET clause on both the SELECT INTO OUTFILE
statement and the subsequent LOAD DATA INFILE statement.
 
Example
 
The following example produces a file in the CSV format:
 
SELECT customer_id, firstname, surname INTO OUTFILE
'/exportdata/customers.txt'
 FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
 LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
 FROM customers;

5SELECT WITH ROLLUPSyntax
------ 
See SELECT for the full syntax.
 
Description
----------- 
The WITH ROLLUP modifier adds extra rows to the resultset
that represent super-aggregate summaries. The
super-aggregated column is represented by a NULL value.
Multiple aggregates over different columns will be added if
there are multiple GROUP BY columns.
 
The LIMIT clause can be used at the same time, and is
applied after the WITH ROLLUP rows have been added.
 
WITH ROLLUP cannot be used with ORDER BY. Some sorting is
still possible by using ASC or DESC clauses with the GROUP
BY column, although the super-aggregate rows will always be
added last.
 
Examples
-------- 
These examples use the following sample table
 
CREATE TABLE booksales ( 
 country VARCHAR(35), genre
ENUM('fiction','non-fiction'), year YEAR, sales INT);
 
INSERT INTO booksales VALUES
 ('Senegal','fiction',2014,12234),
('Senegal','fiction',2015,15647),
 ('Senegal','non-fiction',2014,64980),
('Senegal','non-fiction',2015,78901),
 ('Paraguay','fiction',2014,87970),
('Paraguay','fiction',2015,76940),
 ('Paraguay','non-fiction',2014,8760),
('Paraguay','non-fiction',2015,9030);
 
The addition of the WITH ROLLUP modifier in this example
adds an extra row that aggregates both years:
 
SELECT year, SUM(sales) FROM booksales GROUP BY year;
 
+------+------------+
| year | SUM(sales) |
+------+------------+
| 2014 | 173944 |
| 2015 | 180518 |
+------+------------+
2 rows in set (0.08 sec)
 
SELECT year, SUM(sales) FROM booksales GROUP BY year WITH
ROLLUP;
 
+------+------------+
| year | SUM(sales) |
+------+------------+
| 2014 | 173944 |
| 2015 | 180518 |
| NULL | 354462 |
+------+------------+
 
In the following example, each time the genre, the year or
the country change, another super-aggregate row is added:
 
SELECT country, year, genre, SUM(sales) 
 FROM booksales GROUP BY country, year, genre;
 
+----------+------+-------------+------------+
| country | year | genre | SUM(sales) |
+----------+------+-------------+------------+

4(UNIONUNION is used to combine the results from multiple SELECT
statements into a single result set.
 
Syntax
------ 
SELECT ...
UNION [ALL | DISTINCT] SELECT ...
[UNION [ALL | DISTINCT] SELECT ...]
[ORDER BY [column [, column ...]]]
[LIMIT {[offset,] row_count | row_count OFFSET offset}]
 
Description
----------- 
UNION is used to combine the results from multiple SELECT
statements into a single result set.
 
The column names from the first SELECT statement are used as
the column names for the results returned. Selected columns
listed in corresponding positions of each SELECT statement
should have the same data type. (For example, the first
column selected by the first statement should have the same
type as the first column selected by the other statements.)
 
If they don't, the type and length of the columns in the
result take into account the values returned by all of the
SELECTs, so there is no need for explicit casting. Note that
currently this is not the case for recursive CTEs - see
MDEV-12325.
 
Table names can be specified as db_name.tbl_name. This
permits writing UNIONs which involve multiple databases. See
Identifier Qualifiers for syntax details.
 
UNION queries cannot be used with aggregate functions.
 
ALL/DISTINCT
 
The ALL keyword causes duplicate rows to be preserved. The
DISTINCT keyword (the default if the keyword is omitted)
causes duplicate rows to be removed by the results.
 
UNION ALL and UNION DISTINCT can both be present in a query.
In this case, UNION DISTINCT will override any UNION ALLs to
its left.
 
Until MariaDB 10.1.1, all UNION ALL statements required the
server to create a temporary table. Since MariaDB 10.1.1,
the server can in most cases execute UNION ALL without
creating a temporary table, improving performance (see
MDEV-334).
 
ORDER BY and LIMIT
 
Individual SELECTs can contain their own ORDER BY and LIMIT
clauses. In this case, the individual queries need to be
wrapped between parentheses. However, this does not affect
the order of the UNION, so they only are useful to limit the
record read by one SELECT.
 
The UNION can have global ORDER BY and LIMIT clauses, which
affect the whole resultset. If the columns retrieved by
individual SELECT statements have an alias (AS), the ORDER
BY must use that alias, not the real column names.
 
HIGH_PRIORITY
 
Specifying a query as HIGH_PRIORITY will not work inside a
UNION. If applied to the first SELECT, it will be ignored.
Applying to a later SELECT results in a syntax error:
 
ERROR 1234 (42000): Incorrect usage/placement of
'HIGH_PRIORITY'
 
SELECT ... INTO ...
 
Individual SELECTs cannot be written INTO DUMPFILE or INTO
OUTFILE. If the last SELECT statement specifies INTO
DUMPFILE or INTO OUTFILE, the entire result of the UNION
will be written. Placing the clause after any other SELECT
will result in a syntax error.
 
If the result is a single row, SELECT ... INTO @var_name can
also be used.
 

Parentheses
 
From MariaDB 10.4.0, parentheses can be used to specify
precedence. Before this, a syntax error would be returned.
 
Examples
-------- 
UNION between tables having different column names:
 
(SELECT e_name AS name, email FROM employees)
UNION
(SELECT c_name AS name, email FROM customers);
 
Specifying the UNION's global order and limiting total
rows:
 
(SELECT name, email FROM employees)
UNION
(SELECT name, email FROM customers)
ORDER BY name LIMIT 10;
 
Adding a constant row:
 
(SELECT 'John Doe' AS name, 'john.doe@example.net' AS
email)
UNION
(SELECT name, email FROM customers);
 
Differing types:
 
SELECT CAST('x' AS CHAR(1)) UNION SELECT REPEAT('y',4);
+----------------------+
| CAST('x' AS CHAR(1)) |
+----------------------+
| x |
| yyyy |
+----------------------+
 
Returning the results in order of each individual SELECT by
use of a sort column:
 
(SELECT 1 AS sort_column, e_name AS name, email FROM
employees)
UNION
(SELECT 2, c_name AS name, email FROM customers) ORDER BY
sort_column;
 
Difference between UNION, EXCEPT and INTERSECT:
 
CREATE TABLE seqs (i INT);
INSERT INTO seqs VALUES (1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6);
 
SELECT i FROM seqs WHERE i =3;
 
+------+
| i |
+------+
| 1 |
| 2 |
| 3 |
| 4 |
| 5 |
| 6 |
+------+
 
SELECT i FROM seqs WHERE i =3;
 
+------+
| i |
+------+
| 1 |
| 2 |
+------+
 
SELECT i FROM seqs WHERE i =3;
 
+------+
| i |
+------+
| 3 |
+------+
 
Parentheses for specifying precedence, from MariaDB 10.4.0
 
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t1 (a INT);
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t2 (b INT);
CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t3 (c INT);
 
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (1),(2),(3),(4);
INSERT INTO t2 VALUES (5),(6);
INSERT INTO t3 VALUES (1),(6);
 
((SELECT a FROM t1) UNION (SELECT b FROM t2)) INTERSECT
(SELECT c FROM t3);
+------+
| a |
+------+
| 1 |
| 6 |
+------+
 
(SELECT a FROM t1) UNION ((SELECT b FROM t2) INTERSECT
(SELECT c FROM t3));
+------+
| a |
+------+
| 1 |
| 2 |
| 3 |
| 4 |

�)UPDATESyntax
------ 
Single-table syntax:
 
UPDATE [LOW_PRIORITY] [IGNORE] table_reference 
 [PARTITION (partition_list)]
 SET col1={expr1|DEFAULT} [,col2={expr2|DEFAULT}] ...
 [WHERE where_condition]
 [ORDER BY ...]
 [LIMIT row_count]
 
Multiple-table syntax:
 
UPDATE [LOW_PRIORITY] [IGNORE] table_references
 SET col1={expr1|DEFAULT} [, col2={expr2|DEFAULT}] ...
 [WHERE where_condition]
 
Description
----------- 
For the single-table syntax, the UPDATE statement updates
columns of existing rows in the named table with new values.
The
SET clause indicates which columns to modify and the values
they should be given. Each value can be given as an
expression, or the keyword
DEFAULT to set a column explicitly to its default value. The
WHERE clause, if given, specifies the conditions that
identify
which rows to update. With no WHERE clause, all rows are
updated. If the ORDER BY clause is specified, the rows are
updated in the order that is specified. The LIMIT clause
places a limit on the number of rows that can be updated.
 
The PARTITION clause was introduced in MariaDB 10.0. See
Partition Pruning and Selection for details.
 
Until MariaDB 10.3.2, for the multiple-table syntax, UPDATE
updates rows in each
table named in table_references that satisfy the conditions.
In this case,
ORDER BY and LIMIT cannot be used. This restriction was
lifted in MariaDB 10.3.2 and both clauses can be used with
multiple-table updates. An UPDATE can also reference tables
which are located in different databases; see Identifier
Qualifiers for the syntax.
 
where_condition is an expression that evaluates to true for
each row to be updated.
 
table_references and where_condition are as
specified as described in SELECT.
 
Assignments are evaluated in left-to-right order, unless the
SIMULTANEOUS_ASSIGNMENT sql_mode (available from MariaDB
10.3.5) is set, in which case the UPDATE statement evaluates
all assignments simultaneously. 
 
You need the UPDATE privilege only for columns referenced in
an UPDATE that are actually updated. You need only the
SELECT privilege for any columns that are read but
not modified. See GRANT.
 
The UPDATE statement supports the following modifiers:
If you use the LOW_PRIORITY keyword, execution of
 the UPDATE is delayed until no other clients are reading
from
 the table. This affects only storage engines that use only
table-level
 locking (MyISAM, MEMORY, MERGE). See HIGH_PRIORITY and
LOW_PRIORITY clauses for details.
If you use the IGNORE keyword, the update statement does 
 not abort even if errors occur during the update. Rows for
which
 duplicate-key conflicts occur are not updated. Rows for
which columns are
 updated to values that would cause data conversion errors
are updated to the
 closest valid values instead.
 
UPDATE Statements With the Same Source and Target
 
From MariaDB 10.3.2, UPDATE statements may have the same
source and target.
 
For example, given the following table:
 
DROP TABLE t1;
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (c1 INT, c2 INT);
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (10,10), (20,20);
 
Until MariaDB 10.3.1, the following UPDATE statement would
not work:
 
UPDATE t1 SET c1=c1+1 WHERE c2=(SELECT MAX(c2) FROM t1);
ERROR 1093 (HY000): Table 't1' is specified twice, 
 both as a target for 'UPDATE' and as a separate source
for data
 
From MariaDB 10.3.2, the statement executes successfully:
 
UPDATE t1 SET c1=c1+1 WHERE c2=(SELECT MAX(c2) FROM t1);
 
SELECT * FROM t1;
 
+------+------+
| c1 | c2 |
+------+------+
| 10 | 10 |
| 21 | 20 |
+------+------+
 
Example
 
Single-table syntax:
 
UPDATE table_name SET column1 = value1, column2 = value2
WHERE id=100;
 
Multiple-table syntax:
 
UPDATE tab1, tab2 SET tab1.column1 = value1, tab1.column2 =
value2 WHERE tab1.id = tab2.id;

�'WITHThe WITH keyword signifies a Common Table Expression (CTE).
It allows you to refer to a subquery expression many times
in a query, as if having a temporary table that only exists
for the duration of a query.
 
There are two kinds of CTEs:
Non-Recursive
Recursive
 
Common Table Expression WITH was introduced in MariaDB
10.2.1.
 
Recursive WITH has been supported since MariaDB 10.2.2.
 
Syntax
------ 
WITH [RECURSIVE] table_reference as (SELECT ...)
 SELECT ...
 
You can use table_reference as any normal table in the
external SELECT part. You can also use WITH in sub queries.
WITH can also be used with EXPLAIN and SELECT.
 
Below is an example with the WITH at the top level:
 
WITH t AS (SELECT a FROM t1 WHERE b >= 'c') 
 SELECT * FROM t2, t WHERE t2.c = t.a;
 
The example below uses WITH in a subquery:
 
SELECT t1.a, t1.b FROM t1, t2
 WHERE t1.a > t2.c 
 AND t2.c IN(WITH t AS (SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE t1.a

{DESCRIBE | DESC} tbl_name [col_name | wild]
 
Description
----------- 
DESCRIBE provides information about the columns in a table.
It is a shortcut for SHOW COLUMNS FROM.
These statements also display information for views.
 
col_name can be a column name, or a string containing the
SQL "%" and "_" wildcard characters to
obtain output only for the columns with names matching the
string. There is no
need to enclose the string within quotes unless it contains
spaces or other
special characters.

�6ANALYZE FORMAT=JSONANALYZE FORMAT=JSON is a mix of the EXPLAIN FORMAT=JSON and
ANALYZE statement features. ANALYZE FORMAT=JSON $statement
will execute $statement, and then print the output of
EXPLAIN FORMAT=JSON, amended with the data from query
execution.
 
Basic Execution Data
 
You can get the following also from tabular ANALYZE
statement form:
r_rows is provided for any node that reads rows. It shows
how many rows were read, on average 
r_filtered is provided whenever there is a condition that is
checked. It shows the percentage of rows left after checking
the condition.
 
Advanced Execution Data
 
The most important data that is not available in tabula
ANALYZE statement are:
r_loops field. This shows how many times the node was
executed. Most query plan elements have this field.
r_total_time_ms field. It shows how much time in total was
spent executing this node. If the node has subnodes, their
execution time is included.
r_buffer_size field. Query plan nodes that make use of
buffers report the size of buffer that was was used.
 
Data About Individual Query Plan Nodes
 
filesort node reports whether sorting was done with LIMIT n
parameter, and how many rows were in the sort result. 
block-nl-join node has r_loops field, which allows to tell
whether Using join buffer was efficient 
range-checked-for-each-record reports counters that show the
result of the check. 
expression-cache is used for subqueries, and it reports how
many times the cache was used, and what cache hit ratio was.
union_result node has r_rows so one can see how many rows
were produced after UNION operation
and so forth

�*CROSSESSyntax
------ 
Crosses(g1,g2)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns 1 if g1 spatially crosses g2. Returns NULL if g1 is
a Polygon or a MultiPolygon, or if g2 is a
Point or a MultiPoint. Otherwise, returns 0.
 
The term spatially crosses denotes a spatial relation
between two
given geometries that has the following properties:
The two geometries intersect
Their intersection results in a geometry that has a
dimension that is one
 less than the maximum dimension of the two given geometries
Their intersection is not equal to either of the two given
geometries
 
CROSSES() is based on the original MySQL implementation, and

�-ST_CROSSESSyntax
------ 
ST_CROSSES(g1,g2)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns 1 if geometry g1 spatially crosses geometry g2.
Returns NULL if g1 is a Polygon or a MultiPolygon, or if g2
is a
Point or a MultiPoint. Otherwise, returns 0.
 
The term spatially crosses denotes a spatial relation
between two
given geometries that has the following properties:
The two geometries intersect
Their intersection results in a geometry that has a
dimension that is one
 less than the maximum dimension of the two given geometries
Their intersection is not equal to either of the two given
geometries
 
ST_CROSSES() uses object shapes, while CROSSES(), based on
the original MySQL implementation, uses object bounding
rectangles.

i	*ADDDATESyntax
------ 
ADDDATE(date,INTERVAL expr unit), ADDDATE(expr,days)
 
Description
----------- 
When invoked with the INTERVAL form of the second argument,
ADDDATE()
is a synonym for DATE_ADD(). The related function
SUBDATE() is a synonym for DATE_SUB(). For
information on the INTERVAL unit argument, see the
discussion for
DATE_ADD().
 
When invoked with the days form of the second argument,
MariaDB treats it as an
integer number of days to be added to expr.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT DATE_ADD('2008-01-02', INTERVAL 31 DAY);

U-CONVERT_TZSyntax
------ 
CONVERT_TZ(dt,from_tz,to_tz)
 
Description
----------- 
CONVERT_TZ() converts a datetime value dt from the time zone
given by from_tz to the time zone given by to_tz and returns
the resulting value.
 
In order to use named time zones, such as GMT, MET or
Africa/Johannesburg, the time_zone tables must be loaded
(see mysql_tzinfo_to_sql).
 
No conversion will take place if the value falls outside of
the supported TIMESTAMP range ('1970-01-01 00:00:01' to
'2038-01-19 05:14:07' UTC) when converted from from_tz to
UTC.
 
This function returns NULL if the arguments are invalid (or
named time zones have not been loaded).
 
See time zones for more information.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT CONVERT_TZ('2016-01-01
12:00:00','+00:00','+10:00');
+-----------------------------------------------------+
| CONVERT_TZ('2016-01-01 12:00:00','+00:00','+10:00')
|
+-----------------------------------------------------+
| 2016-01-01 22:00:00 |
+-----------------------------------------------------+
 
Using named time zones (with the time zone tables loaded):
 
SELECT CONVERT_TZ('2016-01-01
12:00:00','GMT','Africa/Johannesburg');
+---------------------------------------------------------------+
| CONVERT_TZ('2016-01-01
12:00:00','GMT','Africa/Johannesburg') |
+---------------------------------------------------------------+
| 2016-01-01 14:00:00 |
+---------------------------------------------------------------+
 
The value is out of the TIMESTAMP range, so no conversion
takes place:
 
SELECT CONVERT_TZ('1969-12-31
22:00:00','+00:00','+10:00');
+-----------------------------------------------------+
| CONVERT_TZ('1969-12-31 22:00:00','+00:00','+10:00')

�*EXTRACTSyntax
------ 
EXTRACT(unit FROM date)
 
Description
----------- 
The EXTRACT() function extracts the required unit from the
date. See Date and Time Units for a complete list of
permitted units.
 
In MariaDB 10.0.7 and MariaDB 5.5.35, EXTRACT (HOUR FROM
...) was changed to return a value from 0 to 23, adhering to
the SQL standard. Until MariaDB 10.0.6 and MariaDB 5.5.34,
and in all versions of MySQL at least as of MySQL 5.7, it
could return a value > 23. HOUR() is not a standard
function, so continues to adhere to the old behaviour
inherited from MySQL.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT EXTRACT(YEAR FROM '2009-07-02');
+---------------------------------+
| EXTRACT(YEAR FROM '2009-07-02') |
+---------------------------------+
| 2009 |
+---------------------------------+
 
SELECT EXTRACT(YEAR_MONTH FROM '2009-07-02 01:02:03');
+------------------------------------------------+
| EXTRACT(YEAR_MONTH FROM '2009-07-02 01:02:03') |
+------------------------------------------------+
| 200907 |
+------------------------------------------------+
 
SELECT EXTRACT(DAY_MINUTE FROM '2009-07-02 01:02:03');
+------------------------------------------------+
| EXTRACT(DAY_MINUTE FROM '2009-07-02 01:02:03') |
+------------------------------------------------+
| 20102 |
+------------------------------------------------+
 
SELECT EXTRACT(MICROSECOND FROM '2003-01-02
10:30:00.000123');
+--------------------------------------------------------+
| EXTRACT(MICROSECOND FROM '2003-01-02 10:30:00.000123') |
+--------------------------------------------------------+
| 123 |
+--------------------------------------------------------+
 
From MariaDB 10.0.7 and MariaDB 5.5.35, EXTRACT (HOUR
FROM...) returns a value from 0 to 23, as per the SQL
standard. HOUR is not a standard function, so continues to
adhere to the old behaviour inherited from MySQL.
 
SELECT EXTRACT(HOUR FROM '26:30:00'), HOUR('26:30:00');
+-------------------------------+------------------+
| EXTRACT(HOUR FROM '26:30:00') | HOUR('26:30:00') |

p0FROM_UNIXTIMESyntax
------ 
FROM_UNIXTIME(unix_timestamp),
FROM_UNIXTIME(unix_timestamp,format)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns a representation of the unix_timestamp argument as a
value in
'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.uuuuuu format,
depending on
whether the function is used in a string or numeric context.
The value
is expressed in the current time zone. unix_timestamp is an
internal
timestamp value such as is produced by the UNIX_TIMESTAMP()
function.
 
If format is given, the result is formatted according to the
format
string, which is used the same way as listed in the entry
for the
DATE_FORMAT() function.
 
Timestamps in MariaDB have a maximum value of 2147483647,
equivalent to 2038-01-19 05:14:07. This is due to the
underlying 32-bit limitation. Using the function on a
timestamp beyond this will result in NULL being returned.
Use DATETIME as a storage type if you require dates beyond
this.
 
The options that can be used by FROM_UNIXTIME(), as well as
DATE_FORMAT() and STR_TO_DATE(), are:
 
Option | Description | 
 
%a | Short weekday name in current locale (Variable
lc_time_names). | 
 
%b | Short form month name in current locale. For locale
en_US this is one of:
Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun,Jul,Aug,Sep,Oct,Nov or Dec. |

%f | Sub seconds 6 digits. | 
 
%H | Hour with 2 digits between 00-23. | 
 
%h | Hour with 2 digits between 01-12. | 
 
%I | Hour with 2 digits between 01-12. | 
 
%i | Minute with 2 digits. | 
 
%j | Day of the year (001-366) | 
 
%k | Hour with 1 digits between 0-23. | 
 
%l | Hour with 1 digits between 1-12. | 
 
%M | Full month name in current locale (Variable
lc_time_names). | 
 
%m | Month with 2 digits. | 
 
%p | AM/PM according to current locale (Variable
lc_time_names). | 
 
%r | Time in 12 hour format, followed by AM/PM. Short for
'%I:%i:%S %p'. | 
 
%S | Seconds with 2 digits. | 
 
%s | Seconds with 2 digits. | 
 
%T | Time in 24 hour format. Short for '%H:%i:%S'. |

%y | Year with 2 digits. | 
 
%# | For str_to_date(), skip all numbers. | 
 
%. | For str_to_date(), skip all punctation characters. | 
 
%@ | For str_to_date(), skip all alpha characters. | 
 
%% | A literal % character. | 
 
Performance Considerations
 
If your session time zone is set to SYSTEM (the default),
FROM_UNIXTIME() will call the OS function to convert the
data using the system time zone. At least on Linux, the
corresponding function (localtime_r) uses a global mutex
inside glibc that can cause contention under high concurrent
load.
 
Set your time zone to a named time zone to avoid this issue.
See mysql time zone tables for details on how to do this.

�'HOURSyntax
------ 
HOUR(time)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the hour for time. The range of the return value is
0 to 23
for time-of-day values. However, the range of TIME values
actually is
much larger, so HOUR can return values greater than 23.
 
The return value is always positive, even if a negative TIME
value is provided.

Description
----------- 
Returns the current date and time as a value in 'YYYY-MM-DD
HH:MM:SS'
or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.uuuuuu format, depending on whether the
function is
used in a string or numeric context. The value is expressed
in the
current time zone.
 
The optional precision determines the microsecond precision.
See Microseconds in MariaDB.
 
NOW() (or its synonyms) can be used as the default value for
TIMESTAMP columns as well as, since MariaDB 10.0.1, DATETIME
columns. Before MariaDB 10.0.1, it was only possible for a
single TIMESTAMP column per table to contain the
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as its default.
 
When displayed in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS table, a
default CURRENT TIMESTAMP is displayed as CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
up until MariaDB 10.2.2, and as current_timestamp() from
MariaDB 10.2.3, due to to MariaDB 10.2 accepting expressions
in the DEFAULT clause.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT NOW();

�.STR_TO_DATESyntax
------ 
STR_TO_DATE(str,format)
 
Description
----------- 
This is the inverse of the DATE_FORMAT() function. It takes
a string str and a format string format. STR_TO_DATE()
returns a
DATETIME value if the format string contains both date and
time parts, or a
DATE or TIME value if the string contains only date or time
parts.
 
The date, time, or datetime values contained in str should
be given in the format indicated by format. If str contains
an illegal date, time, or datetime value, STR_TO_DATE()
returns NULL. An illegal value also produces a warning.
 
The options that can be used by STR_TO_DATE(), as well as
its inverse DATE_FORMAT() and the FROM_UNIXTIME() function,
are:

�	*SUBDATESyntax
------ 
SUBDATE(date,INTERVAL expr unit), SUBDATE(expr,days)
 
Description
----------- 
When invoked with the INTERVAL form of the second argument,
SUBDATE()
is a synonym for DATE_SUB(). See Date and Time Units for a
complete list of permitted units. 
 
The second form allows the use of an integer value for days.
In such
cases, it is interpreted as the number of days to be
subtracted from
the date or datetime expression expr.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT DATE_SUB('2008-01-02', INTERVAL 31 DAY);

+	*SYSDATESyntax
------ 
SYSDATE([precision])
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the current date and time as a value in 'YYYY-MM-DD
HH:MM:SS'
or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.uuuuuu format, depending on whether the
function is
used in a string or numeric context.
 
The optional precision determines the microsecond precision.
See Microseconds in MariaDB.
 
SYSDATE() returns the time at which it executes. This
differs from the
behavior for NOW(), which returns a constant time that
indicates the
time at which the statement began to execute. (Within a
stored routine
or trigger, NOW() returns the time at which the routine or
triggering
statement began to execute.)
 
In addition, changing the timestamp system variable with a
SET timestamp statement affects the value returned by
NOW() but not by SYSDATE(). This means that timestamp
settings in the
binary log have no effect on invocations of SYSDATE().
 
Because SYSDATE() can return different values even within
the same
statement, and is not affected by SET TIMESTAMP, it is
non-deterministic and therefore unsafe for replication if
statement-based binary logging is used. If that is a
problem, you can
use row-based logging, or start the server with the mysqld
option --sysdate-is-now to cause SYSDATE() to be an alias
for NOW(). The non-deterministic nature of SYSDATE() also
means that indexes cannot be used for evaluating expressions
that refer to it, and that statements using the SYSDATE()
function are unsafe for statement-based replication.
 
Examples
-------- 
Difference between NOW() and SYSDATE():
 
SELECT NOW(), SLEEP(2), NOW();

E/TIMESTAMPADDSyntax
------ 
TIMESTAMPADD(unit,interval,datetime_expr)
 
Description
----------- 
Adds the integer expression interval to the date or datetime
expression datetime_expr. The unit for interval is given by
the unit
argument, which should be one of the following values:
MICROSECOND, SECOND, MINUTE, HOUR, DAY, WEEK, MONTH,
QUARTER, or YEAR.
 
The unit value may be specified using one of keywords as
shown, or
with a prefix of SQL_TSI_. For example, DAY and SQL_TSI_DAY
both are
legal.
 
Before MariaDB 5.5, FRAC_SECOND was permitted as a synonym
for MICROSECOND.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT TIMESTAMPADD(MINUTE,1,'2003-01-02');
+-------------------------------------+
| TIMESTAMPADD(MINUTE,1,'2003-01-02') |
+-------------------------------------+

�0TIMESTAMPDIFFSyntax
------ 
TIMESTAMPDIFF(unit,datetime_expr1,datetime_expr2)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns datetime_expr2 - datetime_expr1, where
datetime_expr1 and
datetime_expr2 are date or datetime expressions. One
expression may be
a date and the other a datetime; a date value is treated as
a datetime
having the time part '00:00:00' where necessary. The unit
for the
result (an integer) is given by the unit argument. The legal
values
for unit are the same as those listed in the description of
the
TIMESTAMPADD() function, i.e MICROSECOND, SECOND, MINUTE,
HOUR, DAY, WEEK, MONTH, QUARTER, or YEAR.
 
TIMESTAMPDIFF can also be used to calculate age.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT TIMESTAMPDIFF(MONTH,'2003-02-01','2003-05-01');

------ 
TO_DAYS(date)
 
Description
----------- 
Given a date date, returns the number of days since the
start of the current calendar (0000-00-00).
 
The function is not designed for use with dates before the
advent of the Gregorian calendar in October 1582. Results
will not be reliable since it doesn't account for the lost
days when the calendar changed from the Julian calendar.
 
This is the converse of the FROM_DAYS() function.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT TO_DAYS('2007-10-07');
+-----------------------+

�bq1UNIX_TIMESTAMPSyntax
------ 
UNIX_TIMESTAMP()
UNIX_TIMESTAMP(date)
 
Description
----------- 
If called with no argument, returns a Unix timestamp
(seconds since
'1970-01-01 00:00:00' UTC) as an unsigned integer. If
UNIX_TIMESTAMP()
is called with a date argument, it returns the value of the
argument as seconds
since '1970-01-01 00:00:00' UTC. date may be a DATE
string, a
DATETIME string, a TIMESTAMP, or a number in
the format YYMMDD or YYYYMMDD. The server interprets date as
a value in the
current time zone and converts it to an internal value in
UTC. Clients can set
their time zone as described in time zones.
 
The inverse function of UNIX_TIMESTAMP() is FROM_UNIXTIME()
 
UNIX_TIMESTAMP() supports microseconds.
 
Timestamps in MariaDB have a maximum value of 2147483647,
equivalent to 2038-01-19 05:14:07. This is due to the
underlying 32-bit limitation. Using the function on a date
beyond this will result in NULL being returned. Use DATETIME
as a storage type if you require dates beyond this.
 
Error Handling
 
Returns NULL for wrong arguments to UNIX_TIMESTAMP(). In
MySQL and MariaDB before 5.3 wrong arguments to
UNIX_TIMESTAMP() returned 0. 
 
Compatibility
 
As you can see in the examples above,
UNIX_TIMESTAMP(constant-date-string) returns a timestamp
with 6 decimals while MariaDB 5.2 and before returns it
without decimals. This can cause a problem if you are using
UNIX_TIMESTAMP() as a partitioning function. You can fix
this by using FLOOR(UNIX_TIMESTAMP(..)) or changing the date
string to a date number, like 20080101000000. 
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP();
+------------------+
| UNIX_TIMESTAMP() |
+------------------+
| 1269711082 |

�? Well-Known Binary (WKB) FormatWKB stands for Well-Known Binary, a format for representing
geographical and geometrical data.
 
WKB uses 1-byte unsigned integers, 4-byte unsigned integers,
and 8-byte double-precision numbers.
The first byte indicates the byte order. 00 for big endian,
or 01 for little endian.
The next 4 bytes indicate the geometry type. Values from 1
to 7 indicate whether the type is Point, LineString,
Polygon, MultiPoint, MultiLineString, MultiPolygon, or
GeometryCollection respectively. 
The 8-byte floats represent the co-ordinates.
 
Take the following example, a sequence of 21 bytes each
represented by two hex digits:
 
000000000140000000000000004010000000000000
It's big endian
000000000140000000000000004010000000000000
 
It's a POINT
000000000140000000000000004010000000000000
 
The X co-ordinate is 2.0
000000000140000000000000004010000000000000

��C}2%BINARY OperatorSyntax
------ 
BINARY
 
Description
----------- 
The BINARY operator casts the string following it to a
binary string. This is an easy way to force a column
comparison to be done byte by byte rather than character by
character. This causes the comparison to be case sensitive
even if the column isn't defined as BINARY or BLOB. 
 
BINARY also causes trailing spaces to be significant.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT 'a' = 'A';
 
+-----------+
| 'a' = 'A' |
+-----------+
| 1 |
+-----------+
 
SELECT BINARY 'a' = 'A';
 
+------------------+
| BINARY 'a' = 'A' |
+------------------+
| 0 |
+------------------+
 
SELECT 'a' = 'a ';
 
+------------+
| 'a' = 'a ' |
+------------+
| 1 |
+------------+
 
SELECT BINARY 'a' = 'a ';
 
+-------------------+
| BINARY 'a' = 'a ' |
+-------------------+
| 0 |
+-------------------+
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/binary-operator/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/binary-operator/E~'%CASTSyntax
------ 
CAST(expr AS type)
 
Description
----------- 
The CAST() function takes a value of one type and produces a
value of another type, similar to the CONVERT() function.
For more information, see the description of CONVERT(). 
 
The main difference between the CAST() and CONVERT() is that
CONVERT(expr,type) is ODBC syntax while CAST(expr as type)
and CONVERT(... USING ...) are SQL92 syntax.
 
In MariaDB 10.4 and later, you can use the CAST() function
with the INTERVAL keyword.
 
Until MariaDB 5.5.31, X'HHHH', the standard SQL syntax for
binary string literals, erroneously worked in the same way
as 0xHHHH. In 5.5.31 it was intentionally changed to behave
as a string in all contexts (and never as a number).
 
This introduces an incompatibility with previous versions of
MariaDB, and all versions of MySQL (see the example below). 
 
Examples
-------- 
Simple casts:
 
SELECT CAST("abc" AS BINARY);
SELECT CAST("1" AS UNSIGNED INTEGER);
SELECT CAST(123 AS CHAR CHARACTER SET utf8)
 
Note that when one casts to CHAR without specifying the
character set, the collation_connection character set
collation will be used. When used with CHAR CHARACTER SET,
the default collation for that character set will be used.
 
SELECT COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR));
+------------------------------+
| COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR)) |
+------------------------------+
| latin1_swedish_ci |
+------------------------------+
 
SELECT COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR CHARACTER SET utf8));
+-------------------------------------------------+
| COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR CHARACTER SET utf8)) |
+-------------------------------------------------+
| utf8_general_ci |
+-------------------------------------------------+
 
If you also want to change the collation, you have to use
the COLLATE operator:
 
SELECT COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR CHARACTER SET utf8) 
 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci);
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| COLLATION(CAST(123 AS CHAR CHARACTER SET utf8) COLLATE
utf8_unicode_ci) |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| utf8_unicode_ci |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
Using CAST() to order an ENUM field as a CHAR rather than
the internal numerical value:
 
CREATE TABLE enum_list (enum_field enum('c','a','b'));
 
INSERT INTO enum_list (enum_field) 
VALUES('c'),('a'),('c'),('b');
 
SELECT * FROM enum_list 
ORDER BY enum_field;
 
+------------+
| enum_field |
+------------+
| c |
| c |
| a |
| b |
+------------+
 
SELECT * FROM enum_list 
ORDER BY CAST(enum_field AS CHAR);
+------------+
| enum_field |
+------------+
| a |
| b |
| c |
| c |
+------------+
 
From MariaDB 5.5.31, the following will trigger warnings,
since x'aa' and 'X'aa' no longer behave as a number.
Previously, and in all versions of MySQL, no warnings are
triggered since they did erroneously behave as a number:
 
SELECT CAST(0xAA AS UNSIGNED), CAST(x'aa' AS UNSIGNED),
CAST(X'aa' AS UNSIGNED);
+------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
| CAST(0xAA AS UNSIGNED) | CAST(x'aa' AS UNSIGNED) |
CAST(X'aa' AS UNSIGNED) |
+------------------------+-------------------------+-------------------------+
| 170 | 0 | 0 |

1 row in set, 2 warnings (0.00 sec)
 
Warning (Code 1292): Truncated incorrect INTEGER value:
'\xAA'
Warning (Code 1292): Truncated incorrect INTEGER value:

Casting to intervals:
 
SELECT CAST(2019-01-04 INTERVAL AS DAY_SECOND(2)) AS
"Cast";

P0%CHAR FunctionSyntax
------ 
CHAR(N,... [USING charset_name])
 
Description
----------- 
CHAR() interprets each argument as an INT and returns a
string consisting of the characters given by the code values
of those integers. NULL values are skipped. By default,
CHAR() returns a binary string. To produce a string in a
given character set, use the optional USING clause:
 
SELECT CHARSET(CHAR(0x65)), CHARSET(CHAR(0x65 USING utf8));
+---------------------+--------------------------------+
| CHARSET(CHAR(0x65)) | CHARSET(CHAR(0x65 USING utf8)) |
+---------------------+--------------------------------+
| binary | utf8 |
+---------------------+--------------------------------+
 
If USING is given and the result string is illegal for the
given character set, a warning is issued. Also, if strict
SQL mode is enabled, the result from CHAR() becomes NULL.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT CHAR(77,97,114,'105',97,'68',66);
+----------------------------------+
| CHAR(77,97,114,'105',97,'68',66) |
+----------------------------------+
| MariaDB |
+----------------------------------+
 
SELECT CHAR(77,77.3,'77.3');
+----------------------+
| CHAR(77,77.3,'77.3') |
+----------------------+
| MMM |
+----------------------+
1 row in set, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
 
Warning (Code 1292): Truncated incorrect INTEGER value:

.%CHAR_LENGTHSyntax
------ 
CHAR_LENGTH(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the length of the given string argument, measured in
characters. A multi-byte character counts as a single
character. This means that for a string containing five
two-byte characters, LENGTH() (or OCTET_LENGTH() in Oracle
mode) returns 10, whereas CHAR_LENGTH() returns 5. If the
argument is NULL, it returns NULL. 
 
If the argument is not a string value, it is converted into
a string.
 
It is synonymous with the CHARACTER_LENGTH() function.
 
Until MariaDB 10.3.1, returns MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG, or
bigint(10), in all cases. From MariaDB 10.3.1, returns
MYSQL_TYPE_LONG, or int(10), when the result would fit
within 32-bits.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT CHAR_LENGTH('MariaDB');
+------------------------+
| CHAR_LENGTH('MariaDB') |
+------------------------+
| 7 |
+------------------------+
 
SELECT CHAR_LENGTH('π');
+-------------------+
| CHAR_LENGTH('π') |
+-------------------+
| 1 |
+-------------------+
 


URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/char_length/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/char_length/I�&%CHRThe CHR() function was introduced in MariaDB 10.3.1 to
provide Oracle compatibility
 
Syntax
------ 
CHR(N)
 
Description
----------- 
CHR() interprets each argument N as an integer and returns a
VARCHAR(1) string consisting of the character given by the
code values of the integer. The character set and collation
of the string are set according to the values of the
character_set_database and collation_database system
variables.
 
CHR() is similar to the CHAR() function, but only accepts a
single argument.
 
CHR() is available in all sql_modes.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT CHR(67);
+---------+
| CHR(67) |
+---------+
| C |
+---------+
 
SELECT CHR('67');

URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/chr/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/chr/J�)%CONCATSyntax
------ 
CONCAT(str1,str2,...)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the string that results from concatenating the
arguments. May have one or more arguments. If all arguments
are non-binary strings, the result is a non-binary string.
If the arguments include any binary strings, the result is a
binary string. A numeric argument is converted to its
equivalent binary string form; if you want to avoid that,
you can use an explicit type cast, as in this example:
 
SELECT CONCAT(CAST(int_col AS CHAR), char_col);
 
CONCAT() returns NULL if any argument is NULL.
 
A NULL parameter hides all information contained in other
parameters from the result. Sometimes this is not desirable;
to avoid this, you can:
Use the CONCAT_WS() function with an empty separator,
because that function is NULL-safe.
Use IFNULL() to turn NULLs into empty strings.
 
Oracle Mode
 
In Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3, CONCAT ignores NULL.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT CONCAT('Ma', 'ria', 'DB');
+---------------------------+
| CONCAT('Ma', 'ria', 'DB') |
+---------------------------+
| MariaDB |
+---------------------------+
 
SELECT CONCAT('Ma', 'ria', NULL, 'DB');
+---------------------------------+
| CONCAT('Ma', 'ria', NULL, 'DB') |
+---------------------------------+
| NULL |
+---------------------------------+
 
SELECT CONCAT(42.0);
+--------------+
| CONCAT(42.0) |
+--------------+
| 42.0 |
+--------------+
 
Using IFNULL() to handle NULLs:
 
SELECT CONCAT('The value of @v is: ', IFNULL(@v, ''));
+------------------------------------------------+
| CONCAT('The value of @v is: ', IFNULL(@v, '')) |
+------------------------------------------------+
| The value of @v is: |
+------------------------------------------------+
 
In Oracle mode, from MariaDB 10.3:
 
SELECT CONCAT('Ma', 'ria', NULL, 'DB');
+---------------------------------+
| CONCAT('Ma', 'ria', NULL, 'DB') |
+---------------------------------+
| MariaDB |
+---------------------------------+
 


URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/concat/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/concat/K	�,%CONCAT_WSSyntax
------ 
CONCAT_WS(separator,str1,str2,...)
 
Description
----------- 
CONCAT_WS() stands for Concatenate With Separator and is a
special form of CONCAT(). The first argument is the
separator for the rest of the arguments. The separator is
added between the strings to be concatenated. The separator
can be a string, as can the rest of the arguments.
 
If the separator is NULL, the result is NULL; all other NULL
values are skipped. This makes CONCAT_WS() suitable when you
want to concatenate some values and avoid losing all
information if one of them is NULL.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT CONCAT_WS(',','First name','Second name','Last
Name');
+-------------------------------------------------------+
| CONCAT_WS(',','First name','Second name','Last
Name') |
+-------------------------------------------------------+
| First name,Second name,Last Name |
+-------------------------------------------------------+
 
SELECT CONCAT_WS('-','Floor',NULL,'Room');
+------------------------------------+
| CONCAT_WS('-','Floor',NULL,'Room') |
+------------------------------------+
| Floor-Room |
+------------------------------------+
 
In some cases, remember to include a space in the separator
string:
 
SET @a = 'gnu', @b = 'penguin', @c = 'sea lion';
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
 
SELECT CONCAT_WS(', ', @a, @b, @c);
+-----------------------------+
| CONCAT_WS(', ', @a, @b, @c) |
+-----------------------------+
| gnu, penguin, sea lion |
+-----------------------------+
 
Using CONCAT_WS() to handle NULLs:
 
SET @a = 'a', @b = NULL, @c = 'c';
 
SELECT CONCAT_WS('', @a, @b, @c);
+---------------------------+
| CONCAT_WS('', @a, @b, @c) |
+---------------------------+
| ac |

�U	LI*%CONVERTSyntax
------ 
CONVERT(expr,type), CONVERT(expr USING transcoding_name)
 
Description
----------- 
The CONVERT() and CAST() functions take a value of one type
and produce a value of another type.
 
The type can be one of the following values:
BINARY
CHAR
DATE
DATETIME 
DECIMAL[(M[,D])]
DOUBLE 
FLOAT — From MariaDB 10.4.5
INTEGER 
Short for SIGNED INTEGER
 
SIGNED [INTEGER]
TIME 
UNSIGNED [INTEGER]
 
Note that in MariaDB, INT and INTEGER are the same thing.
 
BINARY produces a string with the BINARY data type. If the
optional length is given, BINARY(N) causes the cast to use
no more than N bytes of the argument. Values shorter than
the given number in bytes are padded with 0x00 bytes to make
them equal the length value.
 
CHAR(N) causes the cast to use no more than the number of
characters given in the argument.
 
The main difference between the CAST() and CONVERT() is that
CONVERT(expr,type) is ODBC syntax while CAST(expr as type)
and CONVERT(... USING ...) are SQL92 syntax.
 
CONVERT() with USING is used to convert data between
different character sets. In MariaDB, transcoding names are
the same as the
corresponding character set names. For example, this
statement
converts the string 'abc' in the default character set to
the
corresponding string in the utf8 character set:
 
SELECT CONVERT('abc' USING utf8);
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT enum_col FROM tbl_name 
ORDER BY CAST(enum_col AS CHAR);
 
Converting a BINARY to string to permit the LOWER function
to work:
 
SET @x = 'AardVark';
 
SET @x = BINARY 'AardVark';
 
SELECT LOWER(@x), LOWER(CONVERT (@x USING latin1));
+-----------+----------------------------------+
| LOWER(@x) | LOWER(CONVERT (@x USING latin1)) |
+-----------+----------------------------------+
| AardVark | aardvark |

ELT(N, str1[, str2, str3,...])
 
Description
----------- 
Takes a numeric argument and a series of string arguments.
Returns the string that corresponds to the given numeric
position. For instance, it returns str1 if N is 1, str2 if N
is 2, and so on. If the numeric argument is a FLOAT, MariaDB
rounds it to the nearest INTEGER. If the numeric argument is
less than 1, greater than the total number of arguments, or
not a number, ELT() returns NULL. It must have at least two
arguments.
 
It is complementary to the FIELD() function.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT ELT(1, 'ej', 'Heja', 'hej', 'foo');
+------------------------------------+
| ELT(1, 'ej', 'Heja', 'hej', 'foo') |
+------------------------------------+
| ej |

4-%EXPORT_SETSyntax
------ 
EXPORT_SET(bits, on, off[, separator[, number_of_bits]])
 
Description
----------- 
Takes a minimum of three arguments. Returns a string where
each bit in the given bits argument is returned, with the
string values given for on and off. 
 
Bits are examined from right to left, (from low-order to
high-order bits). Strings are added to the result from left
to right, separated by a separator string (defaults as
','). You can optionally limit the number of bits the
EXPORT_SET() function examines using the number_of_bits
option. 
 
If any of the arguments are set as NULL, the function
returns NULL.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT EXPORT_SET(5,'Y','N',',',4);
+-----------------------------+
| EXPORT_SET(5,'Y','N',',',4) |
+-----------------------------+
| Y,N,Y,N |

(%FIELDSyntax
------ 
FIELD(pattern, str1[,str2,...])
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the index position of the string or number matching
the given pattern. Returns 0 in the event that none of the
arguments match the pattern. Raises an Error 1582 if not
given at least two arguments.
 
When all arguments given to the FIELD() function are
strings, they are treated as case-insensitive. When all the
arguments are numbers, they are treated as numbers.
Otherwise, they are treated as doubles. 
 
If the given pattern occurs more than once, the FIELD()
function only returns the index of the first instance. If
the given pattern is NULL, the function returns 0, as a NULL
pattern always fails to match.
 
This function is complementary to the ELT() function.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT FIELD('ej', 'Hej', 'ej', 'Heja', 'hej',
'foo') 
 AS 'Field Results';
 
+---------------+
| Field Results |

------ 
EXTRACTVALUE(xml_frag, xpath_expr)
 
Description
----------- 
The EXTRACTVALUE() function takes two string arguments: a
fragment of XML markup and an XPath expression, (also known
as a locator). It returns the text (That is, CDDATA), of the
first text node which is a child of the element or elements
matching the XPath expression. 
 
In cases where a valid XPath expression does not match any
text nodes in a valid XML fragment, (including the implicit
/text() expression), the EXTRACTVALUE() function returns an
empty string.
 
Invalid Arguments
 
When either the XML fragment or the XPath expression is
NULL, the EXTRACTVALUE() function returns NULL. When the XML
fragment is invalid, it raises a warning Code 1525:
 
Warning (Code 1525): Incorrect XML value: 'parse error at
line 1 pos 11: unexpected END-OF-INPUT'
 
When the XPath value is invalid, it generates an Error 1105:
 
ERROR 1105 (HY000): XPATH syntax error: ')'
 
Explicit text() Expressions
 
This function is the equivalent of performing a match using
the XPath expression after appending /text(). In other
words:
 
SELECT
 EXTRACTVALUE('example', '/cases/case') AS 'Base
Example',
 EXTRACTVALUE('example', '/cases/case/text()') AS

When EXTRACTVALUE() returns multiple matches, it returns the
content of the first child text node of each matching
element, in the matched order, as a single, space-delimited
string.
 
By design, the EXTRACTVALUE() function makes no distinction
between a match on an empty element and no match at all. If
you need to determine whether no matching element was found
in the XML fragment or if an element was found that
contained no child text nodes, use the XPath count()
function. 
 
For instance, when looking for a value that exists, but
contains no child text nodes, you would get a count of the
number of matching instances:
 
SELECT
 EXTRACTVALUE('', '/cases/case') AS 'Empty Example',
 EXTRACTVALUE('', '/cases/case/count()') AS 'count()
Example';
 
+---------------+-----------------+
| Empty Example | count() Example |
+---------------+-----------------+
| | 1 |
+---------------+-----------------+
 
Alternatively, when looking for a value that doesn't exist,
count() returns 0.
 
SELECT
 EXTRACTVALUE('', '/cases/person') AS 'No Match
Example',
 EXTRACTVALUE('', '/cases/person/count()') AS 'count()
Example';
 
+------------------+-----------------+
| No Match Example | count() Example |
+------------------+-----------------+
| | 0|
+------------------+-----------------+
 
Matches
 
Important: The EXTRACTVALUE() function only returns CDDATA.
It does not return tags that the element might contain or
the text that these child elements contain.
 
SELECT EXTRACTVALUE('Personx@example.com', '/cases') AS
Case;
 
+--------+
| Case |
+--------+
| Person |
+--------+
 
Note, in the above example, while the XPath expression
matches to the parent  instance, it does not return the
contained  tag or its content.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT
 ExtractValue('cccddd', '/a') AS val1,
 ExtractValue('cccddd', '/a/b') AS val2,
 ExtractValue('cccddd', '//b') AS val3,
 ExtractValue('cccddd', '/b') AS val4,
 ExtractValue('cccdddeee', '//b') AS val5;

------ 
FIND_IN_SET(pattern, strlist)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the index position where the given pattern occurs in
a string list. The first argument is the pattern you want to
search for. The second argument is a string containing
comma-separated variables. If the second argument is of the
SET data-type, the function is optimized to use bit
arithmetic.
 
If the pattern does not occur in the string list or if the
string list is an empty string, the function returns 0. If
either argument is NULL, the function returns NULL. The
function does not return the correct result if the pattern
contains a comma (",") character.

Description
----------- 
Formats the given number for display as a string, adding
separators to appropriate position and rounding the results
to the given decimal position. For instance, it would format
15233.345 to 15,233.35.
 
If the given decimal position is 0, it rounds to return no
decimal point or fractional part. You can optionally specify
a locale value to format numbers to the pattern appropriate
for the given region.

��	SS.%FROM_BASE64The FROM_BASE64() function was introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
FROM_BASE64(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Decodes the given base-64 encode string, returning the
result as a binary string. Returns NULL if the given string
is NULL or if it's invalid.
 
It is the reverse of the TO_BASE64 function.
 
There are numerous methods to base-64 encode a string.
MariaDB uses the following:
It encodes alphabet value 64 as '+'.
It encodes alphabet value 63 as '/'.
It codes output in groups of four printable characters. Each
three byte of data encoded uses four characters. If the
final group is incomplete, it pads the difference with the
'=' character.
It divides long output, adding a new line very 76
characters.
In decoding, it recognizes and ignores newlines, carriage
returns, tabs and space whitespace characters.
 
SELECT TO_BASE64('Maria') AS 'Input';
 
+-----------+
| Input |
+-----------+
| TWFyaWE= |
+-----------+
 
SELECT FROM_BASE64('TWFyaWE=') AS 'Output';

HEX(N_or_S)
 
Description
----------- 
If N_or_S is a number, returns a string representation of
the hexadecimal
value of N, where N is a longlong (BIGINT) number. This is
equivalent to CONV(N,10,16).
 
If N_or_S is a string, returns a hexadecimal string
representation of
N_or_S where each byte of each character in N_or_S is
converted to two hexadecimal
digits. If N_or_S is NULL, returns NULL. The inverse of this
operation is performed by the UNHEX()
function.

------ 
LENGTH(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the length of the string str, measured in bytes. A
multi-byte
character counts as multiple bytes. This means that for a
string
containing five two-byte characters, LENGTH() returns 10,
whereas
CHAR_LENGTH() returns 5. 
 
If str is not a string value, it is converted into a string.
If str is NULL, the function returns NULL.
 
Until MariaDB 10.3.1, returns MYSQL_TYPE_LONGLONG, or
bigint(10), in all cases. From MariaDB 10.3.1, returns
MYSQL_TYPE_LONG, or int(10), when the result would fit
within 32-bits.
 
Oracle Mode
 
When running Oracle mode from MariaDB 10.3, LENGTH() is a
synonym for CHAR_LENGTH().
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT LENGTH('MariaDB');
+-------------------+

SELECT LENGTH('π');
+--------------+

------ 
LOAD_FILE(file_name)
 
Description
----------- 
Reads the file and returns the file contents as a string. To
use this function, the file must be located on the server
host, you must specify the full path name to the file, and
you must have the FILE privilege. The file must be readable
by all and it must be less than the size, in bytes, of the
max_allowed_packet system variable. If the secure_file_priv
system variable is set to a non-empty directory name, the
file to be loaded must be located in that directory.
 
If the file does not exist or cannot be read because one of
the preceding conditions is not satisfied, the function
returns NULL.
 
Since MariaDB 5.1, the character_set_filesystem system
variable has controlled interpretation of file names that
are given as literal strings.
 
Statements using the LOAD_FILE() function are not safe for
statement based replication. This is because the slave will
execute the LOAD_FILE() command itself. If the file doesn't
exist on the slave, the function will return NULL.
 
Examples
-------- 
UPDATE t SET blob_col=LOAD_FILE('/tmp/picture') WHERE
id=1;

[�'%LIKESyntax
------ 
expr LIKE pat [ESCAPE 'escape_char']
expr NOT LIKE pat [ESCAPE 'escape_char']
 
Description
----------- 
Tests whether expr matches the pattern pat. Returns either 1
(TRUE) or 0 (FALSE).
Both expr and pat may be any valid expression and are
evaluated to strings.
Patterns may use the following wildcard characters:
% matches any number of characters, including zero.
_ matches any single character.
 
Use NOT LIKE to test if a string does not match a pattern.
This is equivalent to using
the NOT operator on the entire LIKE expression.
 
If either the expression or the pattern is NULL, the result
is NULL.
 
LIKE performs case-insensitive substring matches if the
collation for the
expression and pattern is case-insensitive. For
case-sensitive matches, declare either argument
to use a binary collation using COLLATE, or coerce either of
them to a BINARY
string using CAST. Use SHOW COLLATION to get a list of
available collations. Collations ending in _bin are
case-sensitive.
 
Numeric arguments are coerced to binary strings.
 
The _ wildcard matches a single character, not byte. It will
only match a multi-byte character
if it is valid in the expression's character set. For
example, _ will match _utf8"€", but it
will not match _latin1"€" because the Euro sign is not a
valid latin1 character. If necessary,
use CONVERT to use the expression in a different character
set.
 
If you need to match the characters _ or %, you must escape
them. By default,
you can prefix the wildcard characters the backslash
character \ to escape them.
The backslash is used both to encode special characters like
newlines when a string is
parsed as well as to escape wildcards in a pattern after
parsing. Thus, to match an
actual backslash, you sometimes need to double-escape it as
"\\\\".
 
To avoid difficulties with the backslash character, you can
change the wildcard escape
character using ESCAPE in a LIKE expression. The argument to
ESCAPE
must be a single-character string.
 
Examples
-------- 
Select the days that begin with "T":
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (d VARCHAR(16));
INSERT INTO t1 VALUES ("Monday"), ("Tuesday"),
("Wednesday"), ("Thursday"), ("Friday"),
("Saturday"), ("Sunday");
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE d LIKE "T%";
 
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE d LIKE "T%";
+----------+
| d |
+----------+
| Tuesday |
| Thursday |
+----------+
 
Select the days that contain the substring "es":
 
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE d LIKE "%es%";
 
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE d LIKE "%es%";
+-----------+
| d |
+-----------+
| Tuesday |
| Wednesday |
+-----------+
 
Select the six-character day names:
 
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE d like "___day";
 
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE d like "___day";
+---------+
| d |
+---------+
| Monday |
| Friday |
| Sunday |
+---------+
 
With the default collations, LIKE is case-insensitive:
 
SELECT * FROM t1 where d like "t%";
 
SELECT * FROM t1 where d like "t%";
+----------+
| d |
+----------+
| Tuesday |
| Thursday |
+----------+
 
Use COLLATE to specify a binary collation, forcing
case-sensitive matches:
 
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE d like "t%" COLLATE latin1_bin;
 
SELECT * FROM t1 WHERE d like "t%" COLLATE latin1_bin;
Empty set (0.00 sec)
 
You can include functions and operators in the expression to
match. Select dates
based on their day name:
 
CREATE TABLE t2 (d DATETIME);
INSERT INTO t2 VALUES
 ("2007-01-30 21:31:07"),
 ("1983-10-15 06:42:51"),

Optimizing LIKE
 
MariaDB can use indexes for LIKE on string columns in the
case where the LIKE doesn't start with % or _.
Starting from MariaDB 10.0, one can set the
optimizer_use_condition_selectivity variable to 5. If this
is done, then the optimizer will read
optimizer_selectivity_sampling_limit rows to calculate the
selectivity of the LIKE expression before starting to
calculate the query plan. This can help speed up some LIKE
queries by providing the optimizer with more information
about your data.

��j�'%REGEXP_INSTRREGEXP_INSTR was introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
REGEXP_INSTR(subject, pattern)
 
Returns the position of the first occurrence of the regular
expression pattern in the string subject, or 0 if pattern
was not found.
 
The positions start with 1 and are measured in characters
(i.e. not in bytes), which is important for multi-byte
character sets. You can cast a multi-byte character set to
BINARY to get offsets in bytes.
 
The function follows the case sensitivity rules of the
effective collation. Matching is performed case
insensitively for case insensitive collations, and case
sensitively for case sensitive collations and for binary
data.
 
The collation case sensitivity can be overwritten using the
(?i) and (?-i) PCRE flags.
 
MariaDB 10.0.5 switched to the PCRE regular expression
library for enhanced regular expression performance, and
REGEXP_INSTR was introduced as part of this enhancement.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT REGEXP_INSTR('abc','b');
-> 2
 
SELECT REGEXP_INSTR('abc','x');
-> 0
 
SELECT REGEXP_INSTR('BJÖRN','N');
-> 5
 
Casting a multi-byte character set as BINARY to get offsets
in bytes:
 
SELECT REGEXP_INSTR(BINARY 'BJÖRN','N') AS
cast_utf8_to_binary;
-> 6
 
Case sensitivity:
 
SELECT REGEXP_INSTR('ABC','b');
-> 2
 
SELECT REGEXP_INSTR('ABC' COLLATE utf8_bin,'b');
-> 0
 
SELECT REGEXP_INSTR(BINARY'ABC','b');
-> 0
 
SELECT REGEXP_INSTR('ABC','(?-i)b');

Syntax
------ 
REGEXP_REPLACE(subject, pattern, replace)
 
Description
----------- 
REGEXP_REPLACE returns the string subject with all
occurrences of the regular expression pattern replaced by
the string replace. If no occurrences are found, then
subject is returned as is.
 
The replace string can have backreferences to the
subexpressions in the form \N, where N is a number from 1
to 9.
 
The function follows the case sensitivity rules of the
effective collation. Matching is performed case
insensitively for case insensitive collations, and case
sensitively for case sensitive collations and for binary
data.
 
The collation case sensitivity can be overwritten using the
(?i) and (?-i) PCRE flags.
 
MariaDB 10.0.5 switched to the PCRE regular expression
library for enhanced regular expression performance, and
REGEXP_REPLACE was introduced as part of this enhancement.
 
MariaDB 10.0.11 introduced the default_regex_flags variable
to address the remaining compatibilities between PCRE and
the old regex library.

c(%REGEXP_SUBSTRREGEXP_SUBSTR was introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
REGEXP_SUBSTR(subject,pattern)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the part of the string subject that matches the
regular expression pattern, or an empty string if pattern
was not found.
 
The function follows the case sensitivity rules of the
effective collation. Matching is performed case
insensitively for case insensitive collations, and case
sensitively for case sensitive collations and for binary
data.
 
The collation case sensitivity can be overwritten using the
(?i) and (?-i) PCRE flags.
 
MariaDB 10.0.5 switched to the PCRE regular expression
library for enhanced regular expression performance, and
REGEXP_SUBSTR was introduced as part of this enhancement.
 
MariaDB 10.0.11 introduced the default_regex_flags variable
to address the remaining compatibilities between PCRE and
the old regex library. 
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR('ab12cd','[0-9]+');
-> 12
 
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR(
 'See https://mariadb.org/en/foundation/ for details',
 'https?://[^/]*');

------ 
RPAD(str, len [, padstr])
 
Description
----------- 
Returns the string str, right-padded with the string padstr
to a
length of len characters. If str is longer than len, the
return value
is shortened to len characters. If padstr is omitted, the
RPAD function pads spaces.
 
Prior to MariaDB 10.3.1, the padstr parameter was mandatory.
 
Returns NULL if given a NULL argument. If the result is
empty (a length of zero), returns either an empty string,
or, from MariaDB 10.3.6 with SQL_MODE=Oracle, NULL.
 
The Oracle mode version of the function can be accessed
outside of Oracle mode by using RPAD_ORACLE as the function
name.

------ 
SOUNDEX(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns a soundex string from str. Two strings that sound
almost the
same should have identical soundex strings. A standard
soundex string is four
characters long, but the SOUNDEX() function returns an
arbitrarily long
string. You can use SUBSTRING() on the result to get a
standard soundex
string. All non-alphabetic characters in str are ignored.
All
international alphabetic characters outside the A-Z range
are treated as
vowels.
 
Important: When using SOUNDEX(), you should be aware of the
following limitations:
This function, as currently implemented, is intended to work
well with
 strings that are in the English language only. Strings in
other languages may
 not produce reliable results.
 
Examples
-------- 
SOUNDEX('Hello');

SUBSTRING(str FROM pos FOR len)
 
SUBSTR(str,pos), 
SUBSTR(str FROM pos), 
SUBSTR(str,pos,len),
SUBSTR(str FROM pos FOR len)
 
Description
----------- 
The forms without a len argument return a substring from
string str starting at position pos.
 
The forms with a len argument return a substring len
characters long from string str, starting at position pos.
 
The forms that use FROM are standard SQL syntax.
 
It is also possible to use a negative value for pos. In this
case, the beginning of the substring is pos characters from
the end of the string, rather than the beginning. A negative
value may be used for pos in any of the forms of this
function.
 
By default, the position of the first character in the
string from which the substring is to be extracted is
reckoned as 1. For Oracle-compatibility, from MariaDB
10.3.3, when sql_mode is set to 'oracle', position zero is
treated as position 1 (although the first character is still
reckoned as 1).
 
If any argument is NULL, returns NULL.

Description
----------- 
Returns the substring from string str before count
occurrences of the

left
of the final delimiter (counting from the left) is returned.
If count
is negative, everything to the right of the final delimiter
(counting from the

case-sensitive match when
searching for delim.
 
If any argument is NULL, returns NULL.

Syntax
------ 
TO_BASE64(str)
 
Description
----------- 
Converts the string argument str to its base-64 encoded
form, returning the result as a character string in the
connection character set and collation.
 
The argument str will be converted to string first if it is
not a string. A NULL argument will return a NULL result.
 
The reverse function, FROM_BASE64(), decodes an encoded
base-64 string.
 
There are a numerous different methods to base-64 encode a
string. The following are used by MariaDB and MySQL:
Alphabet value 64 is encoded as '+'.
Alphabet value 63 is encoded as '/'.
Encoding output is made up of groups of four printable
characters, with each three bytes of data encoded using four
characters. If the final group is not complete, it is padded
with '=' characters to make up a length of four.
To divide long output, a newline is added after every 76
characters.
Decoding will recognize and ignore newlines, carriage
returns, tabs, and spaces. 
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT TO_BASE64('Maria');

0%WEIGHT_STRINGThe WEIGHT_STRING function was introduced in MariaDB 10.0.5.
 
Syntax
------ 
WEIGHT_STRING(str [AS {CHAR|BINARY}(N)] [LEVEL levels]
[flags])
 levels: N [ASC|DESC|REVERSE] [, N [ASC|DESC|REVERSE]] ... 
 
Description
----------- 
Returns a binary string representing the string's sorting
and comparison value. A string with a lower result means
that for sorting purposes the string appears before a string
with a higher result.
 
WEIGHT_STRING() is particularly useful when adding new
collations, for testing purposes.
 
If str is a non-binary string (CHAR, VARCHAR or TEXT),
WEIGHT_STRING returns the string's collation weight. If str
is a binary string (BINARY, VARBINARY or BLOB), the return
value is simply the input value, since the weight for each
byte in a binary string is the byte value.
 
WEIGHT_STRING() returns NULL if given a NULL input. 
 
The optional AS clause permits casting the input string to a
binary or non-binary string, as well as to a particular
length.
 
AS BINARY(N) measures the length in bytes rather than
characters, and right pads with 0x00 bytes to the desired
length. 
 
AS CHAR(N) measures the length in characters, and right pads
with spaces to the desired length.
 
N has a minimum value of 1, and if it is less than the
length of the input string, the string is truncated without
warning.
 
The optional LEVEL clause specifies that the return value
should contain weights for specific collation levels. The
levels specifier can either be a single integer, a
comma-separated list of integers, or a range of integers
separated by a dash (whitespace is ignored). Integers can
range from 1 to a maximum of 6, dependent on the collation,
and need to be listed in ascending order.
 
If the LEVEL clause is no provided, a default of 1 to the
maximum for the collation is assumed.
 
If the LEVEL is specified without using a range, an optional
modifier is permitted.
 
ASC, the default, returns the weights without any
modification.
 
DESC returns bitwise-inverted weights.
 
REVERSE returns the weights in reverse order.
 
Examples
-------- 
The examples below use the HEX() function to represent
non-printable results in hexadecimal format.
 
SELECT HEX(WEIGHT_STRING('x'));

Syntax
------ 
ALTER {DATABASE | SCHEMA} [db_name]
 alter_specification ...
ALTER {DATABASE | SCHEMA} db_name
 UPGRADE DATA DIRECTORY NAME
 
alter_specification:
 [DEFAULT] CHARACTER SET [=] charset_name
 | [DEFAULT] COLLATE [=] collation_name
 
Description
----------- 
ALTER DATABASE enables you to change the overall
characteristics of a
database. These characteristics are stored in the db.opt
file in the
database directory. To use ALTER DATABASE, you need the
ALTER
privilege on the database. ALTER SCHEMA is a synonym for
ALTER
DATABASE.
 
The CHARACTER SET clause changes the default database
character set.
The COLLATE clause changes the default database collation.
See Character Sets and Collations for more.
 
You can see what character sets and collations are available
using,
respectively, the SHOW CHARACTER SET and SHOW COLLATION
statements.
 
Changing the default character set/collation of a database
does not change the character set/collation of any stored
procedures or stored functions that were previously created,
and relied on the defaults. These need to be dropped and
recreated in order to apply the character set/collation
changes.
 
The database name can be omitted from the first syntax, in
which case
the statement applies to the default database.
 
The syntax that includes the UPGRADE DATA DIRECTORY NAME
clause was
added in MySQL 5.1.23. It updates the name of the directory
associated
with the database to use the encoding implemented in MySQL
5.1 for
mapping database names to database directory names (see
Identifier to File Name Mapping). This
clause is for use under these conditions:
It is intended when upgrading MySQL to 5.1 or later from
older versions.
It is intended to update a database directory name to the
current encoding format if the name contains special
characters that need encoding.
The statement is used by mysqlcheck (as invoked by
mysql_upgrade).
 
For example,if a database in MySQL 5.0 has a name of a-b-c,
the name
contains instance of the `-' character. In 5.0, the
database directory
is also named a-b-c, which is not necessarily safe for all
file
systems. In MySQL 5.1 and up, the same database name is
encoded as
a@002db@002dc to produce a file system-neutral directory
name.
 
When a MySQL installation is upgraded to MySQL 5.1 or later
from an
older version,the server displays a name such as a-b-c
(which is in
the old format) as #mysql50#a-b-c, and you must refer to the
name
using the #mysql50# prefix. Use UPGRADE DATA DIRECTORY NAME
in this
case to explicitly tell the server to re-encode the database
directory
name to the current encoding format:
 
ALTER DATABASE `#mysql50#a-b-c` UPGRADE DATA DIRECTORY NAME;
 
After executing this statement, you can refer to the
database as a-b-c
without the special #mysql50# prefix.
 
Examples
-------- 
ALTER DATABASE test CHARACTER SET = 'utf8' COLLATE =
'utf8_bin';

Description
----------- 
The ALTER EVENT statement is used to change one or more of
the
characteristics of an existing event without the need to
drop and recreate it.
The syntax for each of the DEFINER, ON SCHEDULE, ON
COMPLETION,
COMMENT, ENABLE / DISABLE, and DO clauses is exactly the
same as when used with CREATE EVENT.
 
This statement requires the EVENT privilege.
When a user executes a successful ALTER EVENT statement,
that user becomes
the definer for the affected event.
 
(In MySQL 5.1.11 and earlier, an event could be altered only
by its definer, or
by a user having the SUPER privilege.)
 
ALTER EVENT works only with an existing event:
 
ALTER EVENT no_such_event ON SCHEDULE EVERY '2:3'

privilege for each column referred to in the SELECT
statement. As of
MariaDB 5.1.23, ALTER VIEW is allowed only to the definer or
users with
the SUPER privilege.
 
Example
 
ALTER VIEW v AS SELECT a, a*3 AS a2 FROM t;

-'CONSTRAINTMariaDB supports the implementation of constraints at the
table-level using either CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE
statements. A table constraint restricts the data you can
add to the table. If you attempt to insert invalid data on a
column, MariaDB throws an error. 
 
Syntax
------ 
[CONSTRAINT [symbol]] constraint_expression
 
constraint_expression:
 | PRIMARY KEY [index_type] (index_col_name, ...)
[index_option] ...
 | FOREIGN KEY [index_name] (index_col_name, ...) 
 REFERENCES tbl_name (index_col_name, ...)
 [ON DELETE reference_option]
 [ON UPDATE reference_option]
 | UNIQUE [INDEX|KEY] [index_name]
 [index_type] (index_col_name, ...) [index_option] ...
 | CHECK (check_constraints)
 
index_type:
 USING {BTREE | HASH | RTREE}
 
index_col_name:
 col_name [(length)] [ASC | DESC]
 
index_option:
 | KEY_BLOCK_SIZE [=] value
 | index_type
 | WITH PARSER parser_name
 | COMMENT 'string'
 | CLUSTERING={YES|NO}
 
reference_option:
 RESTRICT | CASCADE | SET NULL | NO ACTION | SET DEFAULT
 
Description
----------- 
Constraints provide restrictions on the data you can add to
a table. This allows you to enforce data integrity from
MariaDB, rather than through application logic. When a
statement violates a constraint, MariaDB throws an error.
 
There are four types of table constraints:
 
Constraint | Description | 
 
PRIMARY KEY | Sets the column for referencing rows. Values
must be unique and not null. | 
 
FOREIGN KEY | Sets the column to reference the primary key
on another table. | 
 
UNIQUE | Requires values in column or columns only occur
once in the table. | 
 
CHECK | Checks whether the data meets the given condition. |

 
FOREIGN KEY Constraints
 
InnoDB supports foreign key constraints. The syntax for a
foreign key
constraint definition in InnoDB looks like this:
 
[CONSTRAINT [symbol]] FOREIGN KEY
 [index_name] (index_col_name, ...)
 REFERENCES tbl_name (index_col_name,...)
 [ON DELETE reference_option]
 [ON UPDATE reference_option]
 
reference_option:
 RESTRICT | CASCADE | SET NULL | NO ACTION
 
CHECK Constraints
 
From MariaDB 10.2.1, constraints are enforced. Before
MariaDB 10.2.1 constraint expressions were accepted in the
syntax but ignored.
 
In MariaDB 10.2.1 you can define constraints in 2 different
ways:
CHECK(expression) given as part of a column definition.
CONSTRAINT [constraint_name] CHECK (expression)
 
Before a row is inserted or updated, all constraints are
evaluated in the order they are defined. If any constraint
expression returns false, then the row will not be inserted
or updated.
One can use most deterministic functions in a constraint,
including UDFs.
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT CHECK (a>2), b INT CHECK (b>2),
CONSTRAINT a_greater CHECK (a>b));
 
If you use the second format and you don't give a name to
the constraint, then the constraint will get an
automatically generated name. This is done so that you can
later delete the constraint with ALTER TABLE DROP
constraint_name.
 
One can disable all constraint expression checks by setting
the check_constraint_checks variable to OFF. This is useful
for example when loading a table that violates some
constraints that you want to later find and fix in SQL.
 
Replication
 
In row-based replication, only the master checks
constraints, and failed statements will not be replicated.
In statement-based replication, the slaves will also check
constraints. Constraints should therefore be identical, as
well as deterministic, in a replication environment.
 
Auto_increment
 
From MariaDB 10.2.6, auto_increment columns are no longer
permitted in check constraints. Previously they were
permitted, but would not work correctly. See MDEV-11117.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE product (category INT NOT NULL, id INT NOT
NULL,
 price DECIMAL,
 PRIMARY KEY(category, id)) ENGINE=INNODB;
 
CREATE TABLE customer (id INT NOT NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY (id)) ENGINE=INNODB;
 
CREATE TABLE product_order (no INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 product_category INT NOT NULL,
 product_id INT NOT NULL,
 customer_id INT NOT NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY(no),
 INDEX (product_category, product_id),
 FOREIGN KEY (product_category, product_id)
 REFERENCES product(category, id)
 ON UPDATE CASCADE ON DELETE RESTRICT,
 INDEX (customer_id),
 FOREIGN KEY (customer_id)
 REFERENCES customer(id)) ENGINE=INNODB;
 
The following examples will work from MariaDB 10.2.1
onwards.
 
Numeric constraints and comparisons:
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (a INT CHECK (a>2), b INT CHECK (b>2),
CONSTRAINT a_greater CHECK (a>b));
 
INSERT INTO t1(a) VALUES (1);
ERROR 4022 (23000): CONSTRAINT `a` failed for `test`.`t1`
 
INSERT INTO t1(a,b) VALUES (3,4);
ERROR 4022 (23000): CONSTRAINT `a_greater` failed for
`test`.`t1`
 
INSERT INTO t1(a,b) VALUES (4,3);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.04 sec)
 
Dropping a constraint:
 
ALTER TABLE t1 DROP CONSTRAINT a_greater;
 
Adding a constraint:
 
ALTER TABLE t1 ADD CONSTRAINT a_greater CHECK (a>b);
 
Date comparisons and character length:
 
CREATE TABLE t2 (name VARCHAR(30) CHECK
(CHAR_LENGTH(name)>2), start_date DATE, 
 end_date DATE CHECK (start_date IS NULL OR end_date IS NULL
OR start_date2)), start_date DATE, 
 end_date DATE CHECK (start_date IS NULL OR end_date IS NULL
OR start_date2 is very different to CHAR_LENGTH(name>2) as
the latter mistakenly performs a numeric comparison on the
name field, leading to unexpected results.

 WEEK | SECOND | YEAR_MONTH | DAY_HOUR | DAY_MINUTE |
 DAY_SECOND | HOUR_MINUTE | HOUR_SECOND | MINUTE_SECOND}
 
Description
----------- 
This statement creates and schedules a new event. It
requires the
EVENT privilege for the schema in which the event is to be
created.
 
The minimum requirements for a valid CREATE EVENT statement
are as
follows:
The keywords CREATE EVENT plus an event name, which uniquely
identifies
 the event in the current schema. (Prior to MySQL 5.1.12,
the event name
 needed to be unique only among events created by the same
user on a given
 database.)
An ON SCHEDULE clause, which determines when and how often
the event
 executes.
A DO clause, which contains the SQL statement to be executed
by an
 event.
 
Here is an example of a minimal CREATE EVENT statement:
 
CREATE EVENT myevent
 ON SCHEDULE AT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL 1 HOUR
 DO
 UPDATE myschema.mytable SET mycol = mycol + 1;
 
The previous statement creates an event named myevent. This
event executes once
— one hour following its creation
— by running an SQL statement that increments the
value of the myschema.mytable table's mycol column by 1.
 
The event_name must be a valid MariaDB identifier with a
maximum length
of 64 characters. It may be delimited using back ticks, and
may be
qualified with the name of a database schema. An event is
associated
with both a MariaDB user (the definer) and a schema, and its
name must
be unique among names of events within that schema. In
general, the
rules governing event names are the same as those for names
of stored
routines. See Identifier Names.
 
If no schema is indicated as part of event_name, the default
(current)
schema is assumed.
 
For valid identifiers to use as event names, see Identifier
Names.
 
OR REPLACE
 
The OR REPLACE clause was included in MariaDB 10.1.4. If
used and the event already exists, instead of an error being
returned, the existing event will be dropped and replaced by
the newly defined event.
 
IF NOT EXISTS
 
If the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a
warning instead of an error if the event already exists.
Cannot be used together with OR REPLACE.
 
ON SCHEDULE
 
The ON SCHEDULE clause can be used to specify when the event
must be triggered.
 
AT
 
If you want to execute the event only once (one time event),
you can use the AT keyword, followed by a timestamp. If you
use CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, the event acts as soon as it is
created. As a convenience, you can add one or more intervals
to that timestamp. You can also specify a timestamp in the
past, so that the event is stored but not triggered, until
you modify it via ALTER EVENT.
 
The following example shows how to create an event that will
be triggered tomorrow at a certain time:
 
CREATE EVENT example
ON SCHEDULE AT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL 1 DAY + INTERVAL
3 HOUR
DO something;
 
You can also specify that an event must be triggered at a
regular interval (recurring event). In such cases, use the
EVERY clause followed by the interval.
 
If an event is recurring, you can specify when the first
execution must happen via the STARTS clause and a maximum
time for the last execution via the ENDS clause. STARTS and
ENDS clauses are followed by a timestamp and, optionally,
one or more intervals. The ENDS clause can specify a
timestamp in the past, so that the event is stored but not
executed until you modify it via ALTER EVENT.
 
In the following example, next month a recurring event will
be triggered hourly for a week:
 
CREATE EVENT example
ON SCHEDULE EVERY 1 HOUR
STARTS CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL 1 MONTH
ENDS CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL 1 MONTH + INTERVAL 1 WEEK
DO some_task;
 
Intervals consist of a quantity and a time unit. The time
units are the same used for other staments and time
functions, except that you can't use microseconds for
events. For simple time units, like HOUR or MINUTE, the
quantity is an integer number, for example '10 MINUTE'.
For composite time units, like HOUR_MINUTE or HOUR_SECOND,
the quantity must be a string with all involved simple
values and their separators, for example '2:30' or
'2:30:30'.
 
ON COMPLETION [NOT] PRESERVE
 
The ON COMPLETION clause can be used to specify if the event
must be deleted after its last execution (that is, after its
AT or ENDS timestamp is past). By default, events are
dropped when they are expired. To explicitly state that this
is the desired behaviour, you can use ON COMPLETION NOT
PRESERVE. Instead, if you want the event to be preserved,
you can use ON COMPLETION PRESERVE.
 
In you specify ON COMPLETION NOT PRESERVE, and you specify a
timestamp in the past for AT or ENDS clause, the event will
be immediatly dropped. In such cases, you will get a Note
1558: "Event execution time is in the past and ON
COMPLETION NOT PRESERVE is set. The event was dropped
immediately after creation".
 
ENABLE/DISABLE/DISABLE ON SLAVE
 
Events are ENABLEd by default. If you want to stop MariaDB
from executing
an event, you may specify DISABLE. When it is ready to be
activated, you
may enable it using ALTER EVENT. Another option is
DISABLE ON SLAVE, which indicates that an event was created
on a master and has been replicated to the slave, which is
prevented from executing the event. If DISABLE ON SLAVE is
specifically set, the event will not be executed.
 
COMMENT
 
The COMMENT clause may be used to set a comment for the
event. Maximum
length for comments is 64 characters. The comment is a
string, so it must be
quoted. To see events comments, you can query the
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.EVENTS table (the column is named
EVENT_COMMENT).
 
Examples
-------- 
Minimal CREATE EVENT statement:
 
CREATE EVENT myevent
 ON SCHEDULE AT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL 1 HOUR

Description
----------- 
CREATE INDEX is mapped to an ALTER TABLE statement to create
indexes.
See ALTER TABLE. CREATE INDEX cannot be used to create a
PRIMARY KEY; use ALTER TABLE instead.
 
If another connection is using the table, a metadata lock is
active, and this statement will wait until the lock is
released. This is also true for non-transactional tables.
 
Another shortcut, DROP INDEX, allows the removal of an
index.
 
For valid identifiers to use as index names, see Identifier
Names.
 
Note that KEY_BLOCK_SIZE is currently ignored in CREATE
INDEX, although it is included in the output of SHOW CREATE
TABLE.
 
Privileges
 
Executing the CREATE INDEX statement requires the INDEX
privilege for the table or the database.
 
Online DDL
 
In MariaDB 10.0 and later, online DDL is supported with the
ALGORITHM and LOCK clauses.
 
See InnoDB Online DDL Overview for more information on
online DDL with InnoDB.
 
CREATE OR REPLACE INDEX ...
 
The OR REPLACE clause was added in MariaDB 10.1.4.
 
If the OR REPLACE clause is used and if the index already
exists, then instead of returning an error, the server will
drop the existing index and replace it with the newly
defined index.
 
CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS ...
 
If the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, then the index will
only be created if an index with the same name does not
already exist. If the index already exists, then a warning
will be triggered by default.
 
Index Definitions
 
See CREATE TABLE: Index Definitions for information about
index definitions.
 
WAIT/NOWAIT
 
Set the lock wait timeout. See WAIT and NOWAIT.
 
ALGORITHM
 
See ALTER TABLE: ALGORITHM for more information.
 
LOCK
 
See ALTER TABLE: LOCK for more information.
 
Progress Reporting
 
MariaDB provides progress reporting for CREATE INDEX
statement for clients
that support the new progress reporting protocol. For
example, if you were using the mysql client, then the
progress report might look like this::
 
CREATE INDEX ON tab (num);;
Stage: 1 of 2 'copy to tmp table' 46% of stage
 
The progress report is also shown in the output of the SHOW
PROCESSLIST statement and in the contents of the
information_schema.PROCESSLIST table.
 
See Progress Reporting for more information.

----------- 
The CREATE PACKAGE statement can be used when Oracle
SQL_MODE is set.
 
The CREATE PACKAGE creates the specification for a stored
package (a collection of logically related stored objects).
A stored package specification declares public routines
(procedures and functions) of the package, but does not
implement these routines.
 
A package whose specification was created by the CREATE
PACKAGE statement, should later be implemented using the
CREATE PACKAGE BODY statement.

DROP {DATABASE | SCHEMA} [IF EXISTS] db_name
 
Description
----------- 
DROP DATABASE drops all tables in the database and deletes
the database. Be very careful with this statement! To use
DROP DATABASE,
you need the DROP privilege on the database. DROP SCHEMA is
a synonym for DROP DATABASE.
 
Important: When a database is dropped, user privileges on
the database are not automatically dropped. See GRANT.
 
IF EXISTS
 
Use IF EXISTS to prevent an error from occurring for
databases that do not exist. A NOTE is generated for each
non-existent database when using IF EXISTS. See SHOW
WARNINGS.
 
Examples
-------- 
DROP DATABASE bufg;

[table_options]
 
The options for CREATE SEQUENCE can be given in any order,
optionally followed by table_options.
 
table_options can be any of the normal table options in
CREATE TABLE but the most usable ones are ENGINE=... and
COMMENT=.
 
NOMAXVALUE and NOMINVALUE are there to allow one to create
SEQUENCEs using the Oracle syntax.
 
Description
----------- 
CREATE SEQUENCE will create a sequence that generates new
values when called with NEXT VALUE FOR sequence_name. It's
an alternative to AUTO INCREMENT when one wants to have more
control of how the numbers are generated. As the SEQUENCE
caches values (up to CACHE) it can in some cases be much
faster than AUTO INCREMENT. Another benefit is that one can
access the last value generated by all used sequences, which
solves one of the limitations with LAST_INSERT_ID().
 
CREATE SEQUENCE requires the CREATE privilege.
 
DROP SEQUENCE can be used to drop a sequence, and ALTER
SEQUENCE to change it.
 
Arguments to Create
 
The following options may be used:
 
Option | Default value |  Description | 
 
INCREMENT |  1 | Increment to use for values. May be
negative. Setting an increment of 0 causes the sequence to
use the value of the auto_increment_increment system
variable at the time of creation, which is always a positive
number. (see MDEV-16035). | 
 
MINVALUE | 1 if INCREMENT > 0 and -9223372036854775807 if
INCREMENT < 0 | Minimum value for the sequence | 
 
MAXVALUE | 9223372036854775806 if INCREMENT > 0 and -1 if
INCREMENT < 0 | Max value for sequence | 
 
START | MINVALUE if INCREMENT > 0 and MAX_VALUE if
INCREMENT< 0 | First value that the sequence will generate |

 
CACHE | 1000 |  Number of values that should be cached. 0
if no CACHE. The underlying table will be updated first time
a new sequence number is generated and each time the cache
runs out. | 
 
If CYCLE is used then the sequence should start again from
MINVALUE after it has run out of values. Default value is
NOCYCLE.
 
Constraints on Create Arguments
 
To be able to create a legal sequence, the following must
hold:
MAXVALUE >= start
MAXVALUE > MINVALUE
START >= MINVALUE
MAXVALUE = -9223372036854775807 (LONGLONG_MIN+1)
 
Note that sequences can't generate the maximum/minimum 64
bit number because of the constraint of
MINVALUE and MAXVALUE. 
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE SEQUENCE s START WITH 100 INCREMENT BY 10;
 
CREATE SEQUENCE s2 START WITH -100 INCREMENT BY -10;
 
The following statement fails, as the increment conflicts
with the defaults
 
CREATE SEQUENCE s3 START WITH -100 INCREMENT BY 10;
 
ERROR 4082 (HY000): Sequence 'test.s3' values are
conflicting
 
The sequence can be created by specifying workable minimum
and maximum values:
 
CREATE SEQUENCE s3 START WITH -100 INCREMENT BY 10
MINVALUE=-100 MAXVALUE=1000;

"-'DROP EVENTSyntax
------ 
DROP EVENT [IF EXISTS] event_name
 
Description
----------- 
This statement drops the event named event_name. The event
immediately
ceases being active, and is deleted completely from the
server.
 
If the event does not exist, the error
ERROR 1517 (HY000): Unknown event 'event_name'
results. You can override this and cause the
statement to generate a NOTE for non-existent events instead
by using
IF EXISTS. See SHOW WARNINGS.
 
This statement requires the EVENT privilege. In MySQL 5.1.11
and earlier, an event could be dropped only
by its definer, or by a user having the SUPER privilege.
 
Examples
-------- 
DROP EVENT myevent3;
 
Using the IF EXISTS clause:
 
DROP EVENT IF EXISTS myevent3;
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.01 sec)
 
SHOW WARNINGS;

`0'DROP FUNCTIONSyntax
------ 
DROP FUNCTION [IF EXISTS] f_name
 
Description
----------- 
The DROP FUNCTION statement is used to drop a stored
function or a user-defined function (UDF). That is, the
specified routine is removed from the server, along with all
privileges specific to the function. You must have the ALTER
ROUTINE privilege for the routine in order to drop it. If
the automatic_sp_privileges server system variable is set,
both the ALTER ROUTINE and EXECUTE privileges are granted
automatically to the routine creator - see Stored Routine
Privileges.
 
IF EXISTS
 
The IF EXISTS clause is a MySQL/MariaDB extension. It
prevents an error from occurring if the function does not
exist. A
NOTE is produced that can be viewed with SHOW WARNINGS.
 
For dropping a user-defined functions (UDF), see DROP
FUNCTION UDF.
 
Examples
-------- 
DROP FUNCTION hello;
 
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.042 sec)
 
DROP FUNCTION hello;
 
ERROR 1305 (42000): FUNCTION test.hello does not exist

option:
 { HOST character-literal
 | DATABASE character-literal
 | USER character-literal
 | PASSWORD character-literal
 | SOCKET character-literal
 | OWNER character-literal
 | PORT numeric-literal }
 
Description
----------- 
This statement creates the definition of a server for use
with the Spider,
FEDERATED or FederatedX storage
engine. The CREATE SERVER statement creates a new row within
the
servers table within the mysql database. This statement
requires the SUPER privilege.
 
The server_name should be a unique reference to the server.
Server definitions
are global within the scope of the server, it is not
possible to qualify the
server definition to a specific database. server_name has a
maximum length of
64 characters (names longer than 64 characters are silently
truncated), and is
case insensitive. You may specify the name as a quoted
string.
 
The wrapper_name should be mysql, and may be quoted with
single quotes.
Other values for wrapper_name are not currently supported.
 
For each option you must specify either a character literal
or numeric literal.
Character literals are UTF-8, support a maximum length of 64
characters and
default to a blank (empty) string. String literals are
silently truncated to 64
characters. Numeric literals must be a number between 0 and
9999, default value
is 0.
 
Note: The OWNER option is currently not applied, and has no
effect on
the ownership or operation of the server connection that is
created.
 
The CREATE SERVER statement creates an entry in the
mysql.servers table that can later be used with the
CREATE TABLE statement when creating a Spider, FederatedX or
FEDERATED table. The options that you specify will
be used to populate the columns in the mysql.servers table.
The table columns
are Server_name, Host, Db, Username, Password, Port and
Socket.
 
 DROP SERVER removes a previously created server definition.

 
CREATE SERVER is not written to the binary log, irrespective
of
the binary log format being used.
 
For valid identifiers to use as server names, see Identifier
Names.
 
OR REPLACE
 
If the optional OR REPLACE clause is used, it acts as a
shortcut for:
 
DROP SERVER IF EXISTS name;
 
CREATE SERVER server_name ...;
 
IF NOT EXISTS
 
If the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will return a
warning instead of an error if the server already exists.
Cannot be used together with OR REPLACE.

algorithm_option:
 ALGORITHM [=] {DEFAULT|INPLACE|COPY|NOCOPY|INSTANT}
 
lock_option:
 LOCK [=] {DEFAULT|NONE|SHARED|EXCLUSIVE}
 
Description
----------- 
DROP INDEX drops the index named index_name from the table
tbl_name.
This statement is mapped to an ALTER TABLE statement to drop
the
index.
 
If another connection is using the table, a metadata lock is
active, and this statement will wait until the lock is
released. This is also true for non-transactional tables.
 
See ALTER TABLE.
 
Another shortcut, CREATE INDEX, allows the creation of an
index.
 
To remove the primary key, `PRIMARY` must be specified as
index_name. Note that the quotes are necessary, because
PRIMARY is a keyword.
 
Privileges
 
Executing the DROP INDEX statement requires the INDEX
privilege for the table or the database.
 
Online DDL
 
In MariaDB 10.0 and later, online DDL is supported with the
ALGORITHM and LOCK clauses.
 
See InnoDB Online DDL Overview for more information on
online DDL with InnoDB.
 
DROP INDEX IF EXISTS ...
 
The IF EXISTS clause was added in MariaDB 10.1.4.
 
If the IF EXISTS clause is used, then MariaDB will return a
warning instead of an error if the index does not exist.
 
WAIT/NOWAIT
 
Set the lock wait timeout. See WAIT and NOWAIT.
 
ALGORITHM
 
See ALTER TABLE: ALGORITHM for more information.
 
LOCK
 
See ALTER TABLE: LOCK for more information.
 
Progress Reporting
 
MariaDB provides progress reporting for DROP INDEX statement
for clients
that support the new progress reporting protocol. For
example, if you were using the mysql client, then the
progress report might look like this::

------ 
CREATE [OR REPLACE]

 TRIGGER [IF NOT EXISTS] trigger_name trigger_time
trigger_event
 ON tbl_name FOR EACH ROW
 [{ FOLLOWS | PRECEDES } other_trigger_name ]
 trigger_stmt
 
Description
----------- 
This statement creates a new trigger. A trigger is a named
database
object that is associated with a table, and that activates
when a
particular event occurs for the table. The trigger becomes
associated
with the table named tbl_name, which must refer to a
permanent table.
You cannot associate a trigger with a TEMPORARY table or a
view.
 
CREATE TRIGGER requires the TRIGGER privilege for the table
associated
with the trigger. (Before MySQL 5.1.6, this statement
requires the
SUPER privilege.)
 
You can have multiple triggers for the same trigger_time and
trigger_event.
 
For valid identifiers to use as trigger names, see
Identifier Names.
 
OR REPLACE
 
If used and the trigger already exists, instead of an error
being returned, the existing trigger will be dropped and
replaced by the newly defined trigger.
 
DEFINER
 
The DEFINER clause determines the security context to be
used when
checking access privileges at trigger activation time.
 
IF NOT EXISTS
 
If the IF NOT EXISTS clause is used, the trigger will only
be created if a trigger of the same name does not exist. If
the trigger already exists, by default a warning will be
returned.
 
trigger_time
 
trigger_time is the trigger action time. It can be BEFORE or
AFTER to
indicate that the trigger activates before or after each row
to be
modified.
 
trigger_event
 
trigger_event indicates the kind of statement that activates
the
trigger. The trigger_event can be one of the following:
INSERT: The trigger is activated whenever a new row is
inserted into the table; for example, through INSERT, LOAD
DATA, and REPLACE statements.
UPDATE: The trigger is activated whenever a row is modified;
for example, through UPDATE statements.
DELETE: The trigger is activated whenever a row is deleted
from the table; for example, through DELETE and REPLACE
statements. However, DROP TABLE and TRUNCATE statements on
the table do not activate this trigger, because they do not
use DELETE. Dropping a partition does not activate DELETE
triggers, either.
 
FOLLOWS/PRECEDES other_trigger_name
 
The FOLLOWS other_trigger_name and PRECEDES
other_trigger_name options were added in MariaDB 10.2.3 as
part of supporting multiple triggers per action time.
This is the same syntax used by MySQL 5.7, although MySQL
5.7 does not have multi-trigger support.
 
FOLLOWS adds the new trigger after another trigger while
PRECEDES adds the new trigger before another trigger. If
neither option is used, the new trigger is added last for
the given action and time.
 
FOLLOWS and PRECEDES are not stored in the trigger
definition. However the trigger order is guaranteed to not
change over time. mysqldump and other backup methods will
not change trigger order.
You can verify the trigger order from the ACTION_ORDER
column in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TRIGGERS table.
 
SELECT trigger_name, action_order FROM
information_schema.triggers 
 WHERE event_object_table='t1';

------ 
DROP PROCEDURE [IF EXISTS] sp_name
 
Description
----------- 
This statement is used to drop a stored procedure. That is,
the
specified routine is removed from the server along with all
privileges specific to the procedure. You must have the
ALTER ROUTINE privilege for the routine. If the
automatic_sp_privileges server system variable is set, that
privilege and EXECUTE are granted automatically to the
routine creator - see Stored Routine Privileges.
 
The IF EXISTS clause is a MySQL/MariaDB extension. It
prevents an error from occurring if the procedure or

�0'DROP SEQUENCEDROP SEQUENCE was introduced in MariaDB 10.3.
 
Syntax
------ 
DROP [TEMPORARY] SEQUENCE [IF EXISTS] [/*COMMENT TO SAVE*/]
 sequence_name [, sequence_name] ...
 
Description
----------- 
DROP SEQUENCE removes one or more sequences created with
CREATE SEQUENCE. You must have the DROP privilege for each
sequence. MariaDB returns an error indicating by name which
non-existing tables it was unable to drop, but it also drops
all of the tables in the list that do exist.
 
Important: When a table is dropped, user privileges on the
table are not automatically dropped. See GRANT.
 
If another connection is using the sequence, a metadata lock
is active, and this statement will wait until the lock is
released. This is also true for non-transactional tables.
 
For each referenced sequence, DROP SEQUENCE drops a
temporary sequence with that name, if it exists. If it does
not exist, and the TEMPORARY keyword is not used, it drops a
non-temporary sequence with the same name, if it exists. The
TEMPORARY keyword ensures that a non-temporary sequence will
not accidentally be dropped.
 
Use IF EXISTS to prevent an error from occurring for
sequences that do not exist. A NOTE is generated for each
non-existent sequence when using IF EXISTS. See SHOW
WARNINGS.
 
DROP SEQUENCE requires the DROP privilege.
 
Notes
 
DROP SEQUENCE only removes sequences, not tables. However,
DROP TABLE can remove both sequences and tables.

DROP SERVER [ IF EXISTS ] server_name
 
Description
----------- 
Drops the server definition for the server named
server_name. The
corresponding row within the mysql.servers table will be
deleted. This
statement requires the SUPER privilege. 
 
Dropping a server for a table does not affect any
FederatedX, FEDERATED or Spider tables that used this
connection information when they were created. 
 
IF EXISTS
 
If the IF EXISTS clause is used, MariaDB will not return an
error if the server does not exist. Unlike all other

the server does not exist. See MDEV-9400.

Description
----------- 
This statement drops a trigger. The schema (database) name

Its use requires the TRIGGER privilege for the table
associated with the trigger.
 
Use IF EXISTS to prevent an error from occurring for a

------ 
DROP VIEW [IF EXISTS]
 view_name [, view_name] ...
 [RESTRICT | CASCADE]
 
Description
----------- 
DROP VIEW removes one or more views. You must have the DROP
privilege for
each view. If any of the views named in the argument list do
not exist, MariaDB
returns an error indicating by name which non-existing views
it was unable to
drop, but it also drops all of the views in the list that do
exist.
 
The IF EXISTS clause prevents an error from occurring for
views that don't
exist. When this clause is given, a NOTE is generated for
each non-existent
view. See SHOW WARNINGS.
 
RESTRICT and CASCADE, if given, are parsed and ignored.
 
It is possible to specify view names as db_name.view_name.
This is useful to delete views from multiple databases with
one statement. See Identifier Qualifiers for details.
 
The DROP privilege is required to use DROP TABLE on
non-temporary tables. For temporary tables, no privilege is
required, because such tables are only visible for the
current session.
 
If a view references another view, it will be possible to
drop the referenced view. However, the other view will
reference a view which does not exist any more. Thus,
querying it will produce an error similar to the following:
 
ERROR 1356 (HY000): View 'db_name.view_name' references
invalid table(s) or 
column(s) or function(s) or definer/invoker of view lack
rights to use them
 
This problem is reported in the output of CHECK TABLE.
 
Note that it is not necessary to use DROP VIEW to replace an
existing view, because CREATE VIEW has an OR REPLACE clause.
 
Examples
-------- 
DROP VIEW v,v2;
 
Given views v and v2, but no view v3
 
DROP VIEW v,v2,v3;
ERROR 1051 (42S02): Unknown table 'v3'

E-'DROP TABLESyntax
------ 
DROP [TEMPORARY] TABLE [IF EXISTS] [/*COMMENT TO SAVE*/]
 tbl_name [, tbl_name] ...
 [WAIT n|NOWAIT]
 [RESTRICT | CASCADE]
 
Description
----------- 
DROP TABLE removes one or more tables. You must have the
DROP privilege
for each table. All table data and the table definition are
removed, as well as triggers associated to the table, so be
careful with this statement! If any of the tables named in
the argument list do
not exist, MariaDB returns an error indicating by name which
non-existing tables
it was unable to drop, but it also drops all of the tables
in the list that do
exist.
 
Important: When a table is dropped, user privileges on the
table are not
automatically dropped. See GRANT.
 
If another connection is using the table, a metadata lock is
active, and this statement will wait until the lock is
released. This is also true for non-transactional tables.
 
Note that for a partitioned table, DROP TABLE permanently
removes the table
definition, all of its partitions, and all of the data which
was stored in
those partitions. It also removes the partitioning
definition (.par) file
associated with the dropped table.
 
For each referenced table, DROP TABLE drops a temporary
table with that name, if it exists. If it does not exist,
and the TEMPORARY keyword is not used, it drops a
non-temporary table with the same name, if it exists. The
TEMPORARY keyword ensures that a non-temporary table will
not accidentally be dropped.
 
Use IF EXISTS to prevent an error from occurring for tables
that do not
exist. A NOTE is generated for each non-existent table when
using
IF EXISTS. See SHOW WARNINGS.
 
If a foreign key references this table, the table cannot be
dropped. In this case, it is necessary to drop the foreign
key first.
 
RESTRICT and CASCADE are allowed to make porting from other
database systems easier. In MariaDB, they do nothing.
 
Since MariaDB 5.5.27, the comment before the tablenames
(that /*COMMENT TO SAVE*/) is stored in the binary log. That
feature can be used by replication tools to send their
internal messages.
 
It is possible to specify table names as db_name.tab_name.
This is useful to delete tables from multiple databases with
one statement. See Identifier Qualifiers for details.
 
The DROP privilege is required to use DROP TABLE on
non-temporary tables. For temporary tables, no privilege is
required, because such tables are only visible for the
current session.
 
Note: DROP TABLE automatically commits the current active
transaction,
unless you use the TEMPORARY keyword.
 
WAIT/NOWAIT
 
Set the lock wait timeout. See WAIT and NOWAIT.
 
DROP TABLE in replication
 
DROP TABLE has the following characteristics in replication:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS are always logged.
DROP TABLE without IF EXISTS for tables that don't exist
are not written to the binary log.
Dropping of TEMPORARY tables are prefixed in the log with
TEMPORARY. These drops are only logged when running
statement or mixed mode replication.
One DROP TABLE statement can be logged with up to 3
different DROP statements:
DROP TEMPORARY TABLE
list_of_non_transactional_temporary_tables
DROP TEMPORARY TABLE list_of_transactional_temporary_tables
DROP TABLE list_of_normal_tables
 
Starting from MariaDB 10.0.8, DROP TABLE on the master is
treated on the slave as DROP TABLE IF EXISTS. You can change
that by setting slave-ddl-exec-mode to STRICT.
 
Dropping an Internal #sql-... Table
 
If the mysqld process is killed during an ALTER TABLE you
may find a table named #sql-... in your data directory. In
MariaDB 10.3, InnoDB tables with this prefix will de deleted
automatically during startup.
In MariaDB 10.4 we will ensure that these temporary tables
will always be deleted automatically.
 
If you want to delete one of these tables explicitly you can
do so by using the following syntax:
 
DROP TABLE `#mysql50##sql-...`;
 
When running an ALTER TABLE…ALGORITHM=INPLACE that
rebuilds the table, InnoDB will create an internal #sql-ib
table. For these tables, the .frm file will be called
something else. In order to drop such a table after a server
crash, you must rename the #sql*.frm file to match the
#sql-ib*.ibd file.
 
Examples
-------- 
DROP TABLE Employees, Customers;
 
Notes
 
Beware that DROP TABLE can drop both tables and sequences.
This is mainly done to allow old tools like mysqldump to
work with sequences.

------ 
RENAME TABLE tbl_name

 [, tbl_name2 TO new_tbl_name2] ...
 
Description
----------- 
This statement renames one or more tables or views, but not
the privileges associated to them.
 
The rename operation is done atomically, which means that no
other session can
access any of the tables while the rename is running. For
example, if you have
an existing table old_table, you can create another table
new_table that has the same structure but is empty, and then
replace the existing table with the empty one as follows
(assuming that
backup_table does not already exist):
 
CREATE TABLE new_table (...);
RENAME TABLE old_table TO backup_table, new_table TO
old_table;
 
tbl_name can optionally be specified as db_name.tbl_name.
See Identifier Qualifiers. This allows to use RENAME to move
a table from a database to another (as long as they are on
the same filesystem):
 
RENAME TABLE db1.t TO db2.t;
 
Note that moving a table to another database is not possible
if it has some triggers. Trying to do so produces the
following error:
 
ERROR 1435 (HY000): Trigger in wrong schema
 
Also, views cannot be moved to another database:
 
ERROR 1450 (HY000): Changing schema from 'old_db' to
'new_db' is not allowed.
 
If a RENAME TABLE renames more than one table and one
renaming fails, all renames executed by the same statement
are rolled back.
 
Renames are always executed in the specified order. Knowing
this, it is also possible to swap two tables' names:
 
RENAME TABLE t1 TO tmp_table,
 t2 TO t1,
 tmp_table TO t2;
 
Privileges
 
Executing the RENAME TABLE statement requires the DROP,
CREATE and INSERT privileges for the table or the database.
 
WAIT/NOWAIT
 
Set the lock wait timeout. See WAIT and NOWAIT.

�_�'('MERGEDescription
----------- 
The MERGE storage engine, also known as the MRG_MyISAM
engine, is a
collection of identical MyISAM tables that can be used as
one.
"Identical" means that all tables have identical column
and index
information. You cannot merge MyISAM tables in which the
columns are
listed in a different order, do not have exactly the same
columns, or
have the indexes in different order. However, any or all of
the MyISAM
tables can be compressed with myisampack. Columns names and
indexes names can be different, as long as data types and
NULL/NOT NULL clauses are the same. Differences in
table options such as AVG_ROW_LENGTH, MAX_ROWS, or PACK_KEYS
do not
matter.
 
Each index in a MERGE table must match an index in
underlying MyISAM tables, but the opposite is not true.
Also, a MERGE table cannot have a PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE
indexes, because it cannot enforce uniqueness over all
underlying tables.
 
The following options are meaningful for MERGE tables:
UNION. This option specifies the list of the underlying
MyISAM tables. The list is enclosed between parentheses and
separated with commas.
INSERT_METHOD. This options specifies whether, and how,
INSERTs are allowed for the table. Allowed values are: NO
(INSERTs are not allowed), FIRST (new rows will be written
into the first table specified in the UNION list), LAST (new
rows will be written into the last table specified in the
UNION list). The default value is NO.
 
If you define a MERGE table with a definition which is
different from the underlying MyISAM tables, or one of the
underlying tables is not MyISAM, the CREATE TABLE statement
will not return any error. But any statement which involves
the table will produce an error like the following:
 
ERROR 1168 (HY000): Unable to open underlying table which is
differently defined 
 or of non-MyISAM type or doesn't exist
 
A CHECK TABLE will show more information about the problem.
 
The error is also produced if the table is properly define,
but an underlying table's definition changes at some point
in time.
 
If you try to insert a new row into a MERGE table with
INSERT_METHOD=NO, you will get an error like the following:
 
ERROR 1036 (HY000): Table 'tbl_name' is read only
 
It is possible to build a MERGE table on MyISAM tables which
have one or more virtual columns. MERGE itself does not
support virtual columns, thus such columns will be seen as
regular columns. The data types and sizes will still need to
be identical, and they cannot be NOT NULL.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE t1 (
 a INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
 message CHAR(20)) ENGINE=MyISAM;
 
CREATE TABLE t2 (
 a INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
 message CHAR(20)) ENGINE=MyISAM;
 
INSERT INTO t1 (message) VALUES
('Testing'),('table'),('t1');
 
INSERT INTO t2 (message) VALUES
('Testing'),('table'),('t2');
 
CREATE TABLE total (
 a INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
 message CHAR(20), INDEX(a))
 ENGINE=MERGE UNION=(t1,t2) INSERT_METHOD=LAST;
 
SELECT * FROM total;
 
+---+---------+
| a | message |
+---+---------+
| 1 | Testing |
| 2 | table |
| 3 | t1 |
| 1 | Testing |
| 2 | table |
| 3 | t2 |
+---+---------+
 
In the following example, we'll create three MyISAM tables,
and then a MERGE table on them. However, one of them uses a
different data type for the column b, so a SELECT will
produce an error:
 
CREATE TABLE t1 (
 a INT,
 b INT
) ENGINE = MyISAM;
 
CREATE TABLE t2 (
 a INT,
 b INT
) ENGINE = MyISAM;
 
CREATE TABLE t3 (
 a INT,
 b TINYINT
) ENGINE = MyISAM;
 
CREATE TABLE t_mrg (
 a INT,
 b INT
) ENGINE = MERGE,UNION=(t1,t2,t3);
 
SELECT * FROM t_mrg;
 
ERROR 1168 (HY000): Unable to open underlying table which is
differently defined
 or of non-MyISAM type or doesn't exist
 
To find out what's wrong, we'll use a CHECK TABLE:
 
CHECK TABLE t_mrg;
 
+------------+-------+----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Table | Op | Msg_type | Msg_text |
+------------+-------+----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| test.t_mrg | check | Error | Table 'test.t3' is
differently defined or of non-MyISAM type or doesn't exist
|
| test.t_mrg | check | Error | Unable to open underlying
table which is differently defined or of non-MyISAM type or
doesn't exist |
| test.t_mrg | check | error | Corrupt |
+------------+-------+----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
Now, we know that the problem is in t3's definition.

Syntax
------ 
NEXT VALUE FOR sequence
 
or
 
NEXTVAL(sequence_name)
 
or in Oracle mode (SQL_MODE=ORACLE)
 
sequence_name.nextval
 
NEXT VALUE FOR is ANSI SQL syntax while NEXTVAL() is
PostgreSQL syntax.
 
Description
----------- 
Generate next value for a SEQUENCE.
You can greatly speed up NEXT VALUE by creating the sequence
with the CACHE option. If not, every NEXT VALUE usage will
cause changes in the stored SEQUENCE table.
When using NEXT VALUE the value will be reserved at once and
will not be reused, except if the SEQUENCE was created with
CYCLE. This means that when you are using SEQUENCEs you have
to expect gaps in the generated sequence numbers.
If one updates the SEQUENCE with SETVAL() or ALTER SEQUENCE
... RESTART, NEXT VALUE FOR will notice this and start from
the next requested value.
FLUSH TABLES will close the sequence and the next sequence
number generated will be according to what's stored in the
SEQUENCE object. In effect, this will discard the cached
values.
NEXT VALUE requires the INSERT privilege.
 
You can also use NEXT VALUE FOR sequence for column DEFAULT.

�l��1'TRUNCATE TABLESyntax
------ 
TRUNCATE [TABLE] tbl_name
 [WAIT n | NOWAIT]
 
Description
----------- 
TRUNCATE TABLE empties a table completely. It requires the
DROP privilege. See GRANT.
 
tbl_name can also be specified in the form db_name.tbl_name
(see Identifier Qualifiers).
 
Logically, TRUNCATE TABLE is equivalent to a DELETE
statement that deletes all rows, but there are practical
differences under some circumstances.
 
TRUNCATE TABLE will fail for an InnoDB table if any FOREIGN
KEY constraints from other tables reference the table,
returning the error:
 
ERROR 1701 (42000): Cannot truncate a table referenced in a
foreign key constraint
 
Foreign Key constraints between columns in the same table
are permitted.
 
For an InnoDB table, if there are no FOREIGN KEY
constraints, InnoDB performs fast truncation by dropping the
original table and creating an empty one with the same
definition, which is much faster than deleting rows one by
one. The AUTO_INCREMENT counter is reset by TRUNCATE TABLE,
regardless of whether there is a FOREIGN KEY constraint.
 
The count of rows affected by TRUNCATE TABLE is accurate
only
when it is mapped to a DELETE statement.
 
For other storage engines, TRUNCATE TABLE differs from
DELETE in the following ways:
Truncate operations drop and re-create the table, which is
much
 faster than deleting rows one by one, particularly for
large tables.
Truncate operations cause an implicit commit.
Truncation operations cannot be performed if the session
holds an
 active table lock.
Truncation operations do not return a meaningful value for
the number
 of deleted rows. The usual result is "0 rows affected,"
which should
 be interpreted as "no information."
As long as the table format file tbl_name.frm is valid, the
 table can be re-created as an empty table
 with TRUNCATE TABLE, even if the data or index files have
become
 corrupted.
The table handler does not remember the last
 used AUTO_INCREMENT value, but starts counting
 from the beginning. This is true even for MyISAM and
InnoDB, which normally
 do not reuse sequence values.
When used with partitioned tables, TRUNCATE TABLE preserves
 the partitioning; that is, the data and index files are
dropped and
 re-created, while the partition definitions (.par) file is
 unaffected.
Since truncation of a table does not make any use of DELETE,
 the TRUNCATE statement does not invoke ON DELETE triggers.
TRUNCATE TABLE will only reset the values in the Performance
Schema summary tables to zero or null, and will not remove
the rows.
 
For the purposes of binary logging and replication, TRUNCATE
TABLE is treated as DROP TABLE followed by CREATE TABLE (DDL
rather than DML).
 
TRUNCATE TABLE does not work on views. Currently, TRUNCATE
TABLE drops all historical records from a system-versioned
table.
 
WAIT/NOWAIT
 
Set the lock wait timeout. See WAIT and NOWAIT.
 
Oracle-mode
 
Oracle-mode from MariaDB 10.3 permits the optional keywords
REUSE STORAGE or DROP STORAGE to be used.
 
TRUNCATE [TABLE] tbl_name [{DROP | REUSE} STORAGE]
 
These have no effect on the operation.
 
Performance
 
TRUNCATE TABLE is faster than DELETE, because it drops and
re-creates a table.
 
With XtraDB/InnoDB, TRUNCATE TABLE is slower if
innodb_file_per_table=ON is set (the default since MariaDB
5.5). This is because TRUNCATE TABLE unlinks the underlying
tablespace file, which can be an expensive operation. See
MDEV-8069 for more details.
 
The performance issues with innodb_file_per_table=ON can be
exacerbated in cases where the InnoDB buffer pool is very
large and innodb_adaptive_hash_index=ON is set. In that
case, using DROP TABLE followed by CREATE TABLE instead of
TRUNCATE TABLE may perform better. Setting
innodb_adaptive_hash_index=OFF can also help. In MariaDB
10.2.19 and later, this performance can also be improved by
setting innodb_safe_truncate=OFF. See MDEV-9459 for more
details.
 
Setting innodb_adaptive_hash_index=OFF can also improve
TRUNCATE TABLE performance in general. See MDEV-16796 for
more details.

��
��4(Sequence OverviewSequences were introduced in MariaDB 10.3.
 
Introduction
 
A sequence is an object that generates a sequence of numeric
values, as specified by the CREATE SEQUENCE statement. 
 
CREATE SEQUENCE will create a sequence that generates new
values when called with NEXT VALUE FOR sequence_name. It's
an alternative to AUTO INCREMENT when one wants to have more
control of how the numbers are generated. As the SEQUENCE
caches values (up to the CACHE value in the CREATE SEQUENCE
statement, by default 1000) it can in some cases be much
faster than AUTO INCREMENT. Another benefit is that one can
access the last value generated by all used sequences, which
solves one of the limitations with LAST_INSERT_ID().
 
Creating a Sequence
 
The CREATE SEQUENCE statement is used to create a sequence.
Here is an example of a sequence starting at 100,
incrementing by 10 each time:
 
CREATE SEQUENCE s START WITH 100 INCREMENT BY 10;
 
The CREATE SEQUENCE statement, along with defaults, can be
viewd with the SHOW CREATE SEQUENCE STATEMENT, for example:
 
SHOW CREATE SEQUENCE s\G
*************************** 1. row
***************************
 Table: s
Create Table: CREATE SEQUENCE `s` start with 100 minvalue 1
maxvalue 9223372036854775806 
 increment by 10 cache 1000 nocycle ENGINE=InnoDB
 
Using Sequence Objects
 
To get the next value from a sequence, use
 
NEXT VALUE FOR sequence_name
 
or
 
NEXTVAL(sequence_name)
 
or in Oracle mode (SQL_MODE=ORACLE)
 
sequence_name.nextval
 
For retrieving the last value used by the current connection
from a sequence
use:
 
PREVIOUS VALUE FOR sequence_name
 
or
 
LASTVAL(sequence_name)
 
or in Oracle mode (SQL_MODE=ORACLE)
 
sequence_name.currval
 
For example:
 
SELECT NEXTVAL(s);
+------------+
| NEXTVAL(s) |
+------------+
| 100 |
+------------+
 
SELECT NEXTVAL(s);
+------------+
| NEXTVAL(s) |
+------------+
| 110 |
+------------+
 
SELECT LASTVAL(s);
+------------+
| LASTVAL(s) |
+------------+
| 110 |
+------------+
 
Using Sequences in DEFAULT
 
Starting from 10.3.3 you can use Sequences in DEFAULT:
 
create sequence s1;
 
create table t1 (a int primary key default (next value for
s1), b int);
insert into t1 (b) values (1),(2);
select * from t1;
 
+---+------+
| a | b |
+---+------+
| 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 |
+---+------+
 
Changing a Sequence
 
The ALTER SEQUENCE statement is used for changing sequences.
For example, to restart the sequence at another value:
 
ALTER SEQUENCE s RESTART 50;
 
SELECT NEXTVAL(s);
+------------+
| NEXTVAL(s) |
+------------+
| 50 |
+------------+
 
The SETVAL function can also be used to set the next value
to be returned for a SEQUENCE, for example:
 
SELECT SETVAL(s, 100);
+----------------+
| SETVAL(s, 100) |
+----------------+
| 100 |
+----------------+
 
SETVAL can only be used to increase the sequence value.
Attempting to set a lower value will fail, returning NULL:
 
SELECT SETVAL(s, 50);
+---------------+
| SETVAL(s, 50) |
+---------------+
| NULL |
+---------------+
 
Dropping a Sequence
 
The DROP SEQUENCE statement is used to drop a sequence, for
example:
 
DROP SEQUENCE s;
 
Replication
 
If one wants to use Sequences in a master-master setup or
with Galera one
should use INCREMENT=0. This will tell the Sequence to use
auto_increment_increment and auto_increment_offset to
generate unique values for each server.
 
Standards Compliance
 
MariaDB 10.3 supports both ANSI SQL and Oracle syntax for
sequences.
 
However as SEQUENCE is implemented as a special kind of
table, it uses the same namespace as tables. The benefits
are that sequences show up in SHOW TABLES, and one can also
create a sequence with CREATE TABLE and drop it with DROP
TABLE. One can SELECT from it as from any other table. This
ensures that all old tools that work with tables should work
with sequences.
 
Since sequence objects act as regular tables in many
contexts, they will be affected by LOCK TABLES. This is not
the case in other DBMS, such as Oracle, where LOCK TABLE
does not affect sequences.
 
Notes
 
One of the goals with the Sequence implementation is that
all old
tools, such as mysqldump, should work unchanged, while still
keeping the
normal usage of sequence standard compatibly.
 
To make this possible, sequence is currently implemented as
a table with a few exclusive properties.
 
The special properties for sequence tables are:
A sequence table has always one row.
When one creates a sequence, either with CREATE TABLE or
CREATE SEQUENCE, one row will be inserted.
If one tries to insert into a sequence table, the single row
will be updated. This allows mysqldump to work but also
gives the additional benefit that one can change all
properties of a sequence with a single insert. New
applications should of course also use ALTER SEQUENCE.
UPDATE or DELETE can't be performed on Sequence objects.
Doing a select on the sequence shows the current state of
the sequence, except the values that are reserved in the
cache. The next_value column shows the next value not
reserved by the cache.
FLUSH TABLES will close the sequence and the next sequence
number generated will be according to what's stored in the
Sequence object. In effect, this will discard the cached
values.
A number of normal table operations work on Sequence tables.
See next section.
 
Table Operations that Work with Sequences
 
SHOW CREATE TABLE sequence_name. This shows the table
structure that is behind the SEQUENCE including the field
names that can be used with SELECT or even CREATE TABLE.
CREATE TABLE sequence-structure ... SEQUENCE=1
ALTER TABLE sequence RENAME TO sequence2
RENAME TABLE sequence_name TO new_sequence_name
DROP TABLE sequence_name. This is allowed mainly to get old
tools like mysqldump to work with sequence tables.
SHOW TABLES
 
Implementation
 
Internally, sequence tables are created as a normal table
without
rollback (the InnoDB, Aria and MySAM engines support this),
wrapped by a
sequence engine object. This allowed us to create sequences
with
almost no performance impact for normal tables. (The cost is
one 'if'
per insert if the binary log is enabled).
 
Underlying Table Structure
 
The following example shows the table structure of sequences
and how it
can be used as a table.
(Output of results are slightly edited to make them easier
to read)
 
create sequence t1;
show create sequence t1\G
***** 1. row *****
 CREATE SEQUENCE `t1` start with 1 minvalue 1 maxvalue
9223372036854775806
 increment by 1 cache 1000 nocycle ENGINE=InnoDB
 
show create table t1\G
***** 1. row *****
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `t1` (
 `next_not_cached_value` bigint(21) NOT NULL,
 `minimum_value` bigint(21) NOT NULL,
 `maximum_value` bigint(21) NOT NULL,
 `start_value` bigint(21) NOT NULL COMMENT 'start value
when sequences is created or value if RESTART is used',
 `increment` bigint(21) NOT NULL COMMENT 'increment
value',
 `cache_size` bigint(21) unsigned NOT NULL,
 `cycle_option` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL COMMENT '0 if
no cycles are allowed, 1 if the sequence should begin a new
cycle when maximum_value is passed',
 `cycle_count` bigint(21) NOT NULL COMMENT 'How many cycles
have been done'
) ENGINE=InnoDB SEQUENCE=1
 
select * from t1\G
next_not_cached_value: 1
 minimum_value: 1
 maximum_value: 9223372036854775806
 start_value: 1
 increment: 1
 cache_size: 1000
 cycle_option: 0
 cycle_count: 0
The cycle_count column is incremented every time the
sequence wraps around.

)(SETVAL()SEQUENCEs were introduced in MariaDB 10.3.
 
Syntax
------ 
SETVAL(sequence_name, next_value, [is_used, [round]])
 
Description
----------- 
Set the next value to be returned for a SEQUENCE.
 
This function is compatible with PostgreSQL syntax, extended
with the round argument.
 
If the is_used argument is not given or is 1 or true, then
the next used value will
one after the given value. If is_used is 0 or false then the
next generated value
will be the given value.
 
If round is used then it will set the round value (or the
internal cycle count, starting at zero) for the sequence.
If round is not used, it's assumed to be 0.
 
next_value must be an integer literal.
 
For SEQUENCE tables defined with CYCLE (see CREATE SEQUENCE)
one should use both next_value and round to define the next
value. In this case the
current sequence value is defined to be round, next_value.
 
The result returned by SETVAL() is next_value or NULL if the
given next_value and round is smaller than the current
value.
 
SETVAL() will not set the SEQUENCE value to a something that
is less than
its current value. This is needed to ensure that SETVAL()
is replication safe. If you want to set the SEQUENCE to a
smaller number
use ALTER SEQUENCE.
 
If CYCLE is used, first round and then next_value are
compared
to see if the value is bigger than the current value.
 
Internally, in the MariaDB server, SETVAL() is used to
inform
slaves that a SEQUENCE has changed value. The slave may get
SETVAL() statements out of order, but this is ok as only the
biggest one will have an effect.
 
SETVAL requires the INSERT privilege.
 
Examples
-------- 
SELECT setval(foo, 42); -- Next nextval will return 43
SELECT setval(foo, 42, true); -- Same as above
SELECT setval(foo, 42, false); -- Next nextval will return
42
 
SETVAL setting higher and lower values on a sequence with an
increment of 10:
 
SELECT NEXTVAL(s);
+------------+
| NEXTVAL(s) |
+------------+
| 50 |
+------------+
 
SELECT SETVAL(s, 100);
+----------------+
| SETVAL(s, 100) |
+----------------+
| 100 |
+----------------+
 
SELECT NEXTVAL(s);
+------------+
| NEXTVAL(s) |
+------------+
| 110 |
+------------+
 
SELECT SETVAL(s, 50);
+---------------+
| SETVAL(s, 50) |
+---------------+
| NULL |
+---------------+
 
SELECT NEXTVAL(s);
+------------+
| NEXTVAL(s) |
+------------+
| 120 |
+------------+
 
Example demonstrating round:
 
CREATE OR REPLACE SEQUENCE s1
 START WITH 1
 MINVALUE 1
 MAXVALUE 99
 INCREMENT BY 1 
 CACHE 20 
 CYCLE;
 
SELECT SETVAL(s1, 99, 1, 0);
+----------------------+
| SETVAL(s1, 99, 1, 0) |
+----------------------+
| 99 |
+----------------------+
 
SELECT NEXTVAL(s1);
+-------------+
| NEXTVAL(s1) |
+-------------+
| 1 |
+-------------+
 
The following statement returns NULL, as the given
next_value and round is smaller than the current value.
 
SELECT SETVAL(s1, 99, 1, 0);
+----------------------+
| SETVAL(s1, 99, 1, 0) |
+----------------------+
| NULL |
+----------------------+
 
SELECT NEXTVAL(s1);
+-------------+
| NEXTVAL(s1) |
+-------------+
| 2 |
+-------------+
 
Increasing the round from zero to 1 will allow next_value to
be returned.
 
SELECT SETVAL(s1, 99, 1, 1);
+----------------------+
| SETVAL(s1, 99, 1, 1) |
+----------------------+
| 99 |
+----------------------+
 
SELECT NEXTVAL(s1);
+-------------+
| NEXTVAL(s1) |
+-------------+
| 1 |
+-------------+

JSON_ARRAY_APPEND(json_doc, path, value[, path, value] ...)
 
Description
----------- 
Appends values to the end of the specified arrays within a
JSON document, returning the result, or NULL if any of the

Evaluation is performed from left to right, with the
resulting document from the previous pair becoming the new

If the json_doc is not a valid JSON document, or if any of
the paths are not valid, or contain a * or ** wildcard, an

Syntax
------ 
JSON_ARRAY_INSERT(json_doc, path, value[, path, value] ...)
 
Description
----------- 
Inserts a value into a JSON document, returning the modified
document, or NULL if any of the arguments are NULL.
 
Evaluation is performed from left to right, with the
resulting document from the previous pair becoming the new
value against which the next pair is evaluated.
 
If the json_doc is not a valid JSON document, or if any of
the paths are not valid, or contain a * or ** wildcard, an
error is returned.
 
Examples
-------- 
SET @json = '[1, 2, [3, 4]]';

�%*DENSE_RANKThe DENSE_RANK() function was first introduced with window
functions in MariaDB 10.2.0.
 
Syntax
------ 
DENSE_RANK() OVER (
 [ PARTITION BY partition_expression ]
 [ ORDER BY order_list ]
) 
 
Description
----------- 
DENSE_RANK() is a window function that displays the number
of a given row, starting at one and following the ORDER BY
sequence of the window function, with identical values
receiving the same result. Unlike the RANK() function, there
are no skipped values if the preceding results are
identical. It is also similar to the ROW_NUMBER() function
except that in that function, identical values will receive
a different row number for each result.
 
Examples
-------- 
The distinction between DENSE_RANK(), RANK() and
ROW_NUMBER():

�a�)*LAGThe LAG() function was first introduced with other window
functions in MariaDB 10.2.
 
Syntax
------ 
LAG (expr[, offset]) OVER ( 
 [ PARTITION BY partition_expression ] 
 < ORDER BY order_list >
)
 
Description
----------- 
The LAG function accesses data from a previous row according
to the ORDER BY clause without the need for a self-join. The
specific row is determined by the offset (default 1), which
specifies the number of rows behind the current row to use.
An offset of 0 is the current row.
 
Examples
-------- 
CREATE TABLE t1 (pk int primary key, a int, b int, c
char(10), d decimal(10, 3), e real);

with in MariaDB 10.3.3.
 
Syntax
------ 
Description
----------- 
PERCENTILE_CONT() (standing for continuous percentile) is a
window function which returns a value which corresponds to
the given fraction in the sort order. If required, it will
interpolate between adjacent input items.
 
Essentially, the following process is followed to find the
value to return:
Get the number of rows in the partition, denoted by N
RN = p*(N-1), where p denotes the argument to the
PERCENTILE_CONT function
calculate the FRN(floor row number) and CRN(column row
number for the group( FRN= floor(RN) and CRN = ceil(RN))
look up rows FRN and CRN
If (CRN = FRN = RN) then the result is (value of expression
from row at RN)
Otherwise the result is
(CRN - RN) * (value of expression for row at FRN) +
(RN - FRN) * (value of expression for row at CRN)
 
The MEDIAN function is a specific case of PERCENTILE_CONT,
equivalent to PERCENTILE_CONT(0.5).

URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/percentile_cont/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/percentile_cont/�*RANKThe RANK() function was first introduced with window
functions in MariaDB 10.2.0.
 
Syntax
------ 
RANK() OVER (
 [ PARTITION BY partition_expression ]
 [ ORDER BY order_list ]
) 
 
Description
----------- 
RANK() is a window function that displays the number of a
given row, starting at one and following the ORDER BY
sequence of the window function, with identical values
receiving the same result. It is similar to the ROW_NUMBER()
function except that in that function, identical values will
receive a different row number for each result.
 
Examples
-------- 
The distinction between DENSE_RANK(), RANK() and
ROW_NUMBER():
 
CREATE TABLE student(course VARCHAR(10), mark int, name
varchar(10));
 
INSERT INTO student VALUES 
 ('Maths', 60, 'Thulile'),
 ('Maths', 60, 'Pritha'),
 ('Maths', 70, 'Voitto'),
 ('Maths', 55, 'Chun'),
 ('Biology', 60, 'Bilal'),
 ('Biology', 70, 'Roger');

!%,COLUMN_ADDThe Dynamic columns feature was introduced in MariaDB 5.3.
 
Syntax
------ 
COLUMN_ADD(dyncol_blob, column_nr, value [as type],
[column_nr, value [as type]]...);
COLUMN_ADD(dyncol_blob, column_name, value [as type],
[column_name, value [as type]]...);
 
Description
----------- 
Adds or updates dynamic columns.
dyncol_blob must be either a valid dynamic columns blob (for
example, COLUMN_CREATE returns such blob), or an empty
string.
column_name specifies the name of the column to be added. If
dyncol_blob already has a column with this name, it will be
overwritten.
value specifies the new value for the column. Passing a NULL
value will cause the column to be deleted.
as type is optional. See #datatypes section for a discussion
about types.
 
The return value is a dynamic column blob after the
modifications.
 
Examples
-------- 
-- MariaDB 5.3+:
UPDATE tbl SET dyncol_blob=COLUMN_ADD(dyncol_blob, 1
/*column id*/, "value") WHERE id=1;
 
-- MariaDB 10.0.1+:
UPDATE t1 SET dyncol_blob=COLUMN_ADD(dyncol_blob,
"column_name", "value") WHERE id=1;
 
Note: COLUMN_ADD() is a regular function (just like
CONCAT()), hence, in order to update the value in the table
you have to use the UPDATE ... SET
dynamic_col=COLUMN_ADD(dynamic_col,
....)  pattern.

w(,COLUMN_CREATEThe Dynamic columns feature was introduced in MariaDB 5.3.
 
Syntax
------ 
COLUMN_CREATE(column_nr, value [as type], [column_nr, value
[as type]]...);
COLUMN_CREATE(column_name, value [as type], [column_name,
value [as type]]...);
 
Description
----------- 
Returns a dynamic columns blob that stores the specified
columns with values.
 
The return value is suitable for 
storing in a table
further modification with other dynamic columns functions
 
The as type part allows one to specify the value type. In
most cases,
this is redundant because MariaDB will be able to deduce the
type of the
value. Explicit type specification may be needed when the
type of the value is
not apparent. For example, a literal '2012-12-01' has a
CHAR type by
default, one will need to specify '2012-12-01' AS DATE to
have it stored as
a date. See Dynamic Columns:Datatypes for further details.
 
Examples
-------- 
-- MariaDB 5.3+:
INSERT INTO tbl SET dyncol_blob=COLUMN_CREATE(1 /*column
id*/, "value");
-- MariaDB 10.0.1+:
INSERT INTO tbl SET
dyncol_blob=COLUMN_CREATE("column_name", "value");

�%,COLUMN_GETThe Dynamic columns feature was introduced in MariaDB 5.3.
 
Syntax
------ 
COLUMN_GET(dyncol_blob, column_nr as type);
COLUMN_GET(dyncol_blob, column_name as type);
 
Description
----------- 
Gets the value of a dynamic column by its name. If no column
with the given name exists, NULL will be returned.
 
column_name as type requires that one specify the datatype
of the dynamic column they are reading. 
 
This may seem counter-intuitive: why would one need to
specify which datatype they're retrieving? Can't the
dynamic columns system figure the datatype from the data
being stored?
 
The answer is: SQL is a statically-typed language. The SQL
interpreter needs to know the datatypes of all expressions
before the query is run (for example, when one is using
prepared statements and runs "select COLUMN_GET(...)", the
prepared statement API requires the server to inform the
client about the datatype of the column being read before
the query is executed and the server can see what datatype
the column actually has).
 
A note about lengths
 
If you're running queries like:
 
SELECT COLUMN_GET(blob, 'colname' as CHAR) ...
 
without specifying a maximum length (i.e. using #as CHAR#,
not as CHAR(n)), MariaDB will report the maximum length of
the resultset column to be 53,6870,911 for MariaDB
5.3-10.0.0 and 16,777,216 for MariaDB 10.0.1+. This may
cause excessive memory usage in some client libraries,
because they try to pre-allocate a buffer of maximum
resultset width. To avoid this problem, use CHAR(n) whenever
you're using COLUMN_GET in the select list.
 
See Dynamic Columns:Datatypes for more information about
datatypes.
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

URL: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/column_get/https://mariadb.com/kb/en/column_get/��&,COLUMN_JSONCOLUMN_JSON was introduced in MariaDB 10.0.1
 
Syntax
------ 
COLUMN_JSON(dyncol_blob)
 
Description
----------- 
Returns a JSON representation of data in dyncol_blob. Can
also be used to display nested columns. See dynamic columns
for more information.
 
Example
 
select item_name, COLUMN_JSON(dynamic_cols) from assets;
+-----------------+----------------------------------------+
| item_name | COLUMN_JSON(dynamic_cols) |
+-----------------+----------------------------------------+
| MariaDB T-shirt | {"size":"XL","color":"blue"} |
| Thinkpad Laptop | {"color":"black","warranty":"3
years"} |
+-----------------+----------------------------------------+
 
Limitation: COLUMN_JSON will decode nested dynamic columns
at a nesting level of not more than 10 levels deep. Dynamic
columns that are nested deeper than 10 levels will be shown
as BINARY string, without encoding.
