# dictionaries
2023-03-18 02:45:43 +00:00
Contains information about [dictionaries](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md).
Columns:
- `database` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Name of the database containing the dictionary created by DDL query. Empty string for other dictionaries.
- `name` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — [Dictionary name](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md).
- `uuid` ([UUID](../../sql-reference/data-types/uuid.md)) — Dictionary UUID.
- `status` ([Enum8](../../sql-reference/data-types/enum.md)) — Dictionary status. Possible values:
- `NOT_LOADED` — Dictionary was not loaded because it was not used.
- `LOADED` — Dictionary loaded successfully.
- `FAILED` — Unable to load the dictionary as a result of an error.
- `LOADING` — Dictionary is loading now.
- `LOADED_AND_RELOADING` — Dictionary is loaded successfully, and is being reloaded right now (frequent reasons: [SYSTEM RELOAD DICTIONARY](../../sql-reference/statements/system.md#query_language-system-reload-dictionary) query, timeout, dictionary config has changed).
- `FAILED_AND_RELOADING` — Could not load the dictionary as a result of an error and is loading now.
- `origin` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Path to the configuration file that describes the dictionary.
- `type` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Type of dictionary allocation. [Storing Dictionaries in Memory](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md#storig-dictionaries-in-memory).
- `key.names` ([Array](../../sql-reference/data-types/array.md)([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md))) — Array of [key names](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md#dictionary-key-and-fields#ext_dict_structure-key) provided by the dictionary.
- `key.types` ([Array](../../sql-reference/data-types/array.md)([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md))) — Corresponding array of [key types](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md#dictionary-key-and-fields#ext_dict_structure-key) provided by the dictionary.
- `attribute.names` ([Array](../../sql-reference/data-types/array.md)([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md))) — Array of [attribute names](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md#dictionary-key-and-fields#ext_dict_structure-attributes) provided by the dictionary.
- `attribute.types` ([Array](../../sql-reference/data-types/array.md)([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md))) — Corresponding array of [attribute types](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md#dictionary-key-and-fields#ext_dict_structure-attributes) provided by the dictionary.
- `bytes_allocated` ([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md#uint-ranges)) — Amount of RAM allocated for the dictionary.
- `query_count` ([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md#uint-ranges)) — Number of queries since the dictionary was loaded or since the last successful reboot.
- `hit_rate` ([Float64](../../sql-reference/data-types/float.md)) — For cache dictionaries, the percentage of uses for which the value was in the cache.
- `found_rate` ([Float64](../../sql-reference/data-types/float.md)) — The percentage of uses for which the value was found.
- `element_count` ([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md#uint-ranges)) — Number of items stored in the dictionary.
- `load_factor` ([Float64](../../sql-reference/data-types/float.md)) — Percentage filled in the dictionary (for a hashed dictionary, the percentage filled in the hash table).
- `source` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Text describing the [data source](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md#dictionary-sources) for the dictionary.
- `lifetime_min` ([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md#uint-ranges)) — Minimum [lifetime](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md#dictionary-updates) of the dictionary in memory, after which ClickHouse tries to reload the dictionary (if `invalidate_query` is set, then only if it has changed). Set in seconds.
- `lifetime_max` ([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md#uint-ranges)) — Maximum [lifetime](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md#dictionary-updates) of the dictionary in memory, after which ClickHouse tries to reload the dictionary (if `invalidate_query` is set, then only if it has changed). Set in seconds.
- `loading_start_time` ([DateTime](../../sql-reference/data-types/datetime.md)) — Start time for loading the dictionary.
- `last_successful_update_time` ([DateTime](../../sql-reference/data-types/datetime.md)) — End time for loading or updating the dictionary. Helps to monitor some troubles with dictionary sources and investigate the causes.
- `loading_duration` ([Float32](../../sql-reference/data-types/float.md)) — Duration of a dictionary loading.
- `last_exception` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Text of the error that occurs when creating or reloading the dictionary if the dictionary couldnt be created.
- `comment` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Text of the comment to dictionary.
**Example**
Configure the dictionary:
``` sql
CREATE DICTIONARY dictionary_with_comment
(
id UInt64,
value String
)
PRIMARY KEY id
SOURCE(CLICKHOUSE(HOST 'localhost' PORT tcpPort() TABLE 'source_table'))
LAYOUT(FLAT())
LIFETIME(MIN 0 MAX 1000)
COMMENT 'The temporary dictionary';
```
Make sure that the dictionary is loaded.
``` sql
SELECT * FROM system.dictionaries LIMIT 1 FORMAT Vertical;
```
