SQL Lab
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
SQL Lab is a modern, feature-rich SQL IDE written in
|
|
`React <https://facebook.github.io/react/>`_.
|
|

|
|
Feature Overview
|
|
----------------
|
|
- Connects to just about any database backend
|
|
- A multi-tab environment to work on multiple queries at a time
|
|
- A smooth flow to visualize your query results using Superset's rich
|
|
visualization capabilities
|
|
- Browse database metadata: tables, columns, indexes, partitions
|
|
- Support for long-running queries
|
|
|
|
- uses the `Celery distributed queue <http://www.celeryproject.org/>`_
|
|
to dispatch query handling to workers
|
|
- supports defining a "results backend" to persist query results
|
|
|
|
- A search engine to find queries executed in the past
|
|
- Supports templating using the
|
|
`Jinja templating language <http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/dev/>`_
|
|
which allows for using macros in your SQL code
|
|
|
|
Extra features
|
|
--------------
|
|
- Hit ``alt + enter`` as a keyboard shortcut to run your query
|
|
|
|
Templating with Jinja
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sql
|
|
|
|
SELECT *
|
|
FROM some_table
|
|
WHERE partition_key = '{{ presto.latest_partition('some_table') }}'
|
|
|
|
Templating unleashes the power and capabilities of a
|
|
programming language within your SQL code.
|
|
|
|
Templates can also be used to write generic queries that are
|
|
parameterized so they can be re-used easily.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Available macros
|
|
''''''''''''''''
|
|
|
|
We expose certain modules from Python's standard library in
|
|
Superset's Jinja context:
|
|
|
|
- ``time``: ``time``
|
|
- ``datetime``: ``datetime.datetime``
|
|
- ``uuid``: ``uuid``
|
|
- ``random``: ``random``
|
|
- ``relativedelta``: ``dateutil.relativedelta.relativedelta``
|
|
|
|
`Jinja's builtin filters <http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/dev/templates/>`_ can be also be applied where needed.
|
|
|
|
.. autoclass:: superset.jinja_context.PrestoTemplateProcessor
|
|
:members:
|
|
|
|
.. autofunction:: superset.jinja_context.url_param
|
|
|
|
.. autofunction:: superset.jinja_context.filter_values
|
|
|
|
Extending macros
|
|
''''''''''''''''
|
|
|
|
As mentioned in the `Installation & Configuration <https://superset.incubator.apache.org/installation.html#installation-configuration>`_ documentation,
|
|
it's possible for administrators to expose more more macros in their
|
|
environment using the configuration variable ``JINJA_CONTEXT_ADDONS``.
|
|
All objects referenced in this dictionary will become available for users
|
|
to integrate in their queries in **SQL Lab**.
