    1. SELECT map('key1', number, 'key2', number * 2) FROM numbers(3);

    mapAdd

    Collect all the keys and sum corresponding values.

    Syntax

    1. mapAdd(arg1, arg2 [, ...])

    Arguments

    Arguments are maps or of two arrays, where items in the first array represent keys, and the second array contains values for the each key. All key arrays should have same type, and all value arrays should contain items which are promoted to the one type (, UInt64 or ). The common promoted type is used as a type for the result array.

    Returned value

    • Depending on the arguments returns one map or , where the first array contains the sorted keys and the second array contains values.

    Example

    Query with a tuple:

    1. SELECT mapAdd(([toUInt8(1), 2], [1, 1]), ([toUInt8(1), 2], [1, 1])) as res, toTypeName(res) as type;

    Result:

    1. ([1,2],[2,2]) Tuple(Array(UInt8), Array(UInt64))
    2. └───────────────┴────────────────────────────────────┘

    Query with Map type:

    1. SELECT mapAdd(map(1,1), map(1,1));

    Result:

    Collect all the keys and subtract corresponding values.

    Syntax

    1. mapSubtract(Tuple(Array, Array), Tuple(Array, Array) [, ...])

    Arguments are maps or of two arrays, where items in the first array represent keys, and the second array contains values for the each key. All key arrays should have same type, and all value arrays should contain items which are promote to the one type (, UInt64 or ). The common promoted type is used as a type for the result array.

    Returned value

    • Depending on the arguments returns one map or , where the first array contains the sorted keys and the second array contains values.

    Example

    Query with a tuple map:

    1. SELECT mapSubtract(([toUInt8(1), 2], [toInt32(1), 1]), ([toUInt8(1), 2], [toInt32(2), 1])) as res, toTypeName(res) as type;

    Result:

    1. ┌─res────────────┬─type──────────────────────────────┐
    2. ([1,2],[-1,0]) Tuple(Array(UInt8), Array(Int64))
    3. └────────────────┴───────────────────────────────────┘

    Query with Map type:

    1. SELECT mapSubtract(map(1,1), map(1,1));

    Result:

    1. {1:0}
    2. └───────────────────────────────────┘

    mapPopulateSeries

    Fills missing keys in the maps (key and value array pair), where keys are integers. Also, it supports specifying the max key, which is used to extend the keys array.
    Arguments are or two arrays, where the first array represent keys, and the second array contains values for the each key.

    For array arguments the number of elements in keys and values must be the same for each row.

    Syntax

    1. mapPopulateSeries(keys, values[, max])
    2. mapPopulateSeries(map[, max])

    Generates a map (a tuple with two arrays or a value of Map type, depending on the arguments), where keys are a series of numbers, from minimum to maximum keys (or max argument if it specified) taken from the map with a step size of one, and corresponding values. If the value is not specified for the key, then it uses the default value in the resulting map. For repeated keys, only the first value (in order of appearing) gets associated with the key.

    Arguments

    Mapped arrays:

    • keys — Array of keys. (Int).
    • values — Array of values. (Int).

    or

    • map — Map with integer keys. .

    Returned value

    • Depending on the arguments returns a map or a of two arrays: keys in sorted order, and values the corresponding keys.

    Example

    Query with mapped arrays:

    1. select mapPopulateSeries([1,2,4], [11,22,44], 5) as res, toTypeName(res) as type;

    Result:

    1. ┌─res──────────────────────────┬─type──────────────────────────────┐
    2. ([1,2,3,4,5],[11,22,0,44,0]) Tuple(Array(UInt8), Array(UInt8))
    3. └──────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────────┘

    Query with Map type:

    Result:

    1. ┌─mapPopulateSeries(map(1, 10, 5, 20), 6)─┐
    2. {1:10,2:0,3:0,4:0,5:20,6:0}
    3. └─────────────────────────────────────────┘

    Determines whether the map contains the key parameter.

    Syntax

    1. mapContains(map, key)
    • map — Map. .

    Returned value

    • 1 if map contains key, 0 if not.

    Type: UInt8.

    Example

    Query:

    1. CREATE TABLE test (a Map(String,String)) ENGINE = Memory;
    2. SELECT mapContains(a, 'name') FROM test;

    Result:

    1. ┌─mapContains(a, 'name')─┐
    2. 1
    3. 0
    4. └────────────────────────┘

    mapKeys

    Returns all keys from the map parameter.

    Can be optimized by enabling the optimize_functions_to_subcolumns setting. With optimize_functions_to_subcolumns = 1 the function reads only subcolumn instead of reading and processing the whole column data. The query SELECT mapKeys(m) FROM table transforms to SELECT m.keys FROM table.

    Syntax

    1. mapKeys(map)

    Parameters

    • map — Map. Map.

    Returned value

    • Array containing all keys from the map.

    Type: .

    Example

    Query:

    1. CREATE TABLE test (a Map(String,String)) ENGINE = Memory;
    2. INSERT INTO test VALUES ({'name':'eleven','age':'11'}), ({'number':'twelve','position':'6.0'});
    3. SELECT mapKeys(a) FROM test;

    Result:

    1. ┌─mapKeys(a)────────────┐
    2. ['name','age']
    3. ['number','position']
    4. └───────────────────────┘

    Returns all values from the map parameter.

    Can be optimized by enabling the optimize_functions_to_subcolumns setting. With optimize_functions_to_subcolumns = 1 the function reads only subcolumn instead of reading and processing the whole column data. The query SELECT mapValues(m) FROM table transforms to SELECT m.values FROM table.

    Syntax

    1. mapKeys(map)

    Parameters

    • map — Map. Map.

    Returned value

    • Array containing all the values from map.

    Type: .

    Example

    Query:

    1. ┌─mapValues(a)─────┐
    2. ['eleven','11']
