Tips

Let's learn a weekly tip from Databend.

Have fun with Databend UDF (User Defined Function)

In the last week we have introduced an experimental UDF engine, thanks @lianghanzhen. Let's try it out together.

Create a UDF

Databend supports the use of expressions as user defined functions. We can easily create a user-defined function in lambda-like style with CREATE FUNCTION <fn-name> AS (<fn-param0>, ...) -> <fn-expr>. Let's create a custom function to calculate the mean of two numbers together.

mysql> CREATE FUNCTION mean2number AS (x, y) -> (x + y) / 2;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.05 sec)
Read 0 rows, 0 B in 0.037 sec., 0 rows/sec., 0 B/sec.

Call a UDF

Calling UDF is the same as calling any other function. In the following example we have calculated the mean of 150 and 250.

mysql> SELECT mean2number(150, 250);
+-------------------+
| ((150 + 250) / 2) |
+-------------------+
|               200 |
+-------------------+
1 row in set (0.02 sec)
Read 1 rows, 1 B in 0.018 sec., 55.59 rows/sec., 55.59 B/sec.
