With this commit, we implemented some basic features of reference tables.
To start with, a reference table is
* a distributed table whithout a distribution column defined on it
* the distributed table is single sharded
* and the shard is replicated to all nodes
Reference tables follows the same code-path with a single sharded
tables. Thus, broadcast JOINs are applicable to reference tables.
But, since the table is replicated to all nodes, table fetching is
not required any more.
Reference tables support the uniqueness constraints for any column.
Reference tables can be used in INSERT INTO .. SELECT queries with
the following rules:
* If a reference table is in the SELECT part of the query, it is
safe join with another reference table and/or hash partitioned
tables.
* If a reference table is in the INSERT part of the query, all
other participating tables should be reference tables.
Reference tables follow the regular co-location structure. Since
all reference tables are single sharded and replicated to all nodes,
they are always co-located with each other.
Queries involving only reference tables always follows router planner
and executor.
Reference tables can have composite typed columns and there is no need
to create/define the necessary support functions.
All modification queries, master_* UDFs, EXPLAIN, DDLs, TRUNCATE,
sequences, transactions, COPY, schema support works on reference
tables as expected. Plus, all the pre-requisites associated with
distribution columns are dismissed.
Added a new UDF, mark_tables_colocated(), to colocate tables with the same
configuration (shard count, shard replication count and distribution column type).
With this change, we now push down foreign key constraints created during CREATE TABLE
statements. We also start to send foreign constraints during shard move along with
other DDL statements
So far placements were assigned an Oid, but that was just used to track
insertion order. It also did so incompletely, as it was not preserved
across changes of the shard state. The behaviour around oid wraparound
was also not entirely as intended.
The newly introduced, explicitly assigned, IDs are preserved across
shard-state changes.
The prime goal of this change is not to improve ordering of task
assignment policies, but to make it easier to reference shards. The
newly introduced UpdateShardPlacementState() makes use of that, and so
will the in-progress connection and transaction management changes.
This adds support for SERIAL/BIGSERIAL column types. Because we now can
evaluate functions on the master (during execution), adding this is a
matter of ensuring the table creation step works properly.
To accomplish this, I've added some logic to detect sequences owned by
a table (i.e. those related to its columns). Simply creating a sequence
and using it in a default value is insufficient; users who do so must
ensure the sequence is owned by the column using it.
Fortunately, this is exactly what SERIAL and BIGSERIAL do, which is the
use case we're targeting with this feature. While testing this, I found
that worker_apply_shard_ddl_command actually adds shard identifiers to
sequence names, though I found no places that use or test this path. I
removed that code so that sequence names are not mutated and will match
those used by a SERIAL default value expression.
Our use of the new-to-9.5 CREATE SEQUENCE IF NOT EXISTS syntax means we
are dropping support for 9.4 (which is being done regardless, but makes
this change simpler). I've removed 9.4 from the Travis build matrix.
Some edge cases are possible in ALTER SEQUENCE, COPY FROM (on workers),
and CREATE SEQUENCE OWNED BY. I've added errors for each so that users
understand when and why certain operations are prohibited.
Fixes#676
We added old versions (i.e. without schema name) of worker_apply_shard_ddl_command,
worker_fetch_foreign_file and worker_fetch_regular_table back. During function call
of one of these functions, we set schema name as public schema and call the newer
version of the functions.
Fixes#565Fixes#626
To add schema support to citus, we need to schema-prefix all table names, object names etc.
in the queries sent to worker nodes. However; query deparsing is not available for most of
DDL commands, therefore it is not easy to generate worker query in the master node.
As a solution we are sending schema names along with shard id and query to run to worker
nodes with worker_apply_shard_ddl_command.
To not break \STAGE command we pass public schema as paramater while calling
worker_apply_shard_ddl_command from there. This will not cause problem if user uses \STAGE
in different schema because passes schema name is used only if there is no schema name is
given in the query.
Fixes#78
With this change, it is possible to append a table in any schema to shard. The function
master_append_table_to_shard now supports schema names.
Now, master_create_empty_shard() will create shards according to the
value of citus.shard_placement_policy which also makes default round-robin
instead of random.
Fixes#10
This change creates a new UDF: master_modify_multiple_shards
Parameters:
modify_query: A simple DELETE or UPDATE query as a string.
The UDF is similar to the existing master_apply_delete_command UDF.
Basically, given the modify query, it prunes the shard list, re-constructs
the query for each shard and sends the query to the placements.
Depending on the value of citus.multi_shard_commit_protocol, the commit
can be done in one-phase or two-phase manner.
Limitations:
* It cannot be called inside a transaction block
* It only be called with simple operator expressions (like Single Shard Modify)
Sample Usage:
```
SELECT master_modify_multiple_shards(
'DELETE FROM customer_delete_protocol WHERE c_custkey > 500 AND c_custkey < 500');
```
Now, we can copy to an append-partitioned distributed relation from
any worker node by providing master options such as;
COPY relation_name FROM file_path WITH (delimiter '|', master_host 'localhost', master_port 5432);
where master_port is optional and default is 5432.
That's important because ownership of relations implies special
privileges. Without this change, a distributed table can be accessible
by a table's owner, but a shard created by another user might not.
- Flexed the check which prevented append operation cstore tables
since its storage type is not SHARD_STORAGE_TABLE.
- Used process utility function to perform copy operation in
worker_append_table_to shard() instead of directly calling
postgresql DoCopy().
- Removed the additional check in master_create_empty_shard() function.
This check was redundant and erroneous since it was called after
CheckDistributedTable() call.
- Modified WorkerTableSize() function to retrieve cstore table shard
size correctly.
After this change, shards and associated metadata are automatically
dropped when running DROP TABLE on a distributed table, which fixes#230.
It also adds schema support for master_apply_delete_command, which
fixes#73.
Dropping the shards happens in the master_drop_all_shards UDF, which is
called from the SQL_DROP trigger. Inside the trigger, the table is no
longer visible and calling master_apply_delete_command directly wouldn't
work and oid <-> name mappings are not available. The
master_drop_all_shards function therefore takes the relation id, schema
name, and table name as parameters, which can be obtained from
pg_event_trigger_dropped_objects() in the SQL_DROP trigger. If the user
calls master_drop_all_shards while the table still exists, the schema
name and table name are ignored.
