+# Reddit comments dataset

+This dataset contains publicly-available comments on Reddit that go back to December, 2005, to March, 2023, and contains over 7B rows of data. The raw data is in JSON format in compressed `.zst` files and the rows look like the following:

+A shoutout to Percona for the [motivation behind ingesting this dataset](https://www.percona.com/blog/big-data-set-reddit-comments-analyzing-clickhouse/), which we have downloaded and stored in an S3 bucket.
+
+:::note
+The following commands were executed on ClickHouse Cloud. To run this on your own cluster, replace `default` in the `s3Cluster` function call with the name of your cluster. If you do not have a cluster, then replace the `s3Cluster` function with the `s3` function.

+1. Let's create a table for the Reddit data:
+
+```sql

+```
+
+:::note
+The names of the files in S3 start with `RC_YYYY-MM` where `YYYY-MM` goes from `2005-12` to `2023-02`. The compression changes a couple of times though, so the file extensions are not consistent. For example:
+
+- the file names are initially `RC_2005-12.bz2` to `RC_2017-11.bz2`
+- then they look like `RC_2017-12.xz` to `RC_2018-09.xz`
+- and finally `RC_2018-10.zst` to `RC_2023-02.zst`
+:::
+
+2. We are going to start with one month of data, but if you want to simply insert every row - skip ahead to step 8 below. The following file has 86M records from December, 2017:
+
+```sql
+INSERT INTO reddit
+    SELECT *
+    FROM s3Cluster(
+        'default',
+        'https://clickhouse-public-datasets.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/reddit/original/RC_2017-12.xz',
+        'JSONEachRow'
+    );
+```
+
+If you do not have a cluster, use `s3` instead of `s3Cluster`:
+
+```sql
+INSERT INTO reddit
+    SELECT *
+    FROM s3(
+        'https://clickhouse-public-datasets.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/reddit/original/RC_2017-12.xz',
+        'JSONEachRow'
+    );
+```
+
+3. It will take a while depending on your resources, but when it's done verify it worked:
+
+```sql
+SELECT formatReadableQuantity(count())
+FROM reddit;
+```
+
+```response
+┌─formatReadableQuantity(count())─┐
+│ 85.97 million                   │
+└─────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+4. Let's see how many unique subreddits were in December of 2017:
+
+```sql
+SELECT uniqExact(subreddit)
+FROM reddit;
+```
+
+```response
+┌─uniqExact(subreddit)─┐

+
+5. This query returns the top 10 subreddits (in terms of number of comments):
+
+```sql

+    subreddit,
+    count() AS c

+
+```sql

+```
+
+7.  We already inserted some data, but we will start over:
+
+```sql
+TRUNCATE TABLE reddit;
+```
+
+8. This is a fun dataset and it looks like we can find some great information, so let's go ahead and insert the entire dataset from 2005 to 2023. When you're ready, run this command to insert all the rows. (It takes a while - up to 17 hours!)
+
+```sql
+INSERT INTO reddit
+SELECT *
+FROM s3Cluster(
+    'default',
+    'https://clickhouse-public-datasets.s3.amazonaws.com/reddit/original/RC*',
+    'JSONEachRow'
+    )
+SETTINGS zstd_window_log_max = 31;
+```
+
+The response looks like:
+
+```response
+0 rows in set. Elapsed: 61187.839 sec. Processed 6.74 billion rows, 2.06 TB (110.17 thousand rows/s., 33.68 MB/s.)
+```
+
+8. Let's see how many rows were inserted and how much disk space the table is using:
+
+
+```sql
+SELECT
+    sum(rows) AS count,
+    formatReadableQuantity(count),
+    formatReadableSize(sum(bytes)) AS disk_size,
+    formatReadableSize(sum(data_uncompressed_bytes)) AS uncompressed_size
+FROM system.parts
+WHERE (table = 'reddit') AND active
+```
+
+Notice the compression of disk storage is about 1/3 of the uncompressed size:
+
+```response
+┌──────count─┬─formatReadableQuantity(sum(rows))─┬─disk_size──┬─uncompressed_size─┐

+
+1 row in set. Elapsed: 0.010 sec.
+```
+
+9. The following query shows how many comments, authors and subreddits we have for each month:
+
+```sql
+SELECT
+    toStartOfMonth(created_utc) AS firstOfMonth,
+    count() AS c,
+    bar(c, 0, 50000000, 25) AS bar_count,
+    uniq(author) AS authors,
+    bar(authors, 0, 5000000, 25) AS bar_authors,
+    uniq(subreddit) AS subreddits,
+    bar(subreddits, 0, 100000, 25) AS bar_subreddits
+FROM reddit
+GROUP BY firstOfMonth
+ORDER BY firstOfMonth ASC;
+```
+
+This is a substantial query that has to process all 6.74 billion rows, but we still get an impressive response time (about 3 minutes):
+
+```response

+
+```sql

+SETTINGS joined_subquery_requires_alias = 0;
+```
+
+It looks like memes and teenagers were busy on Reddit in 2019:

+12. One more query: let's compare ClickHouse mentions to other technologies like Snowflake and Postgres. This query is a big one because it has to search all the comments three times for a substring, and unfortunately ClickHouse user are obviously not very active on Reddit yet:
+
+```sql
+SELECT
+    toStartOfQuarter(created_utc) AS quarter,
+    sum(if(positionCaseInsensitive(body, 'clickhouse') > 0, 1, 0)) AS clickhouse,
+    sum(if(positionCaseInsensitive(body, 'snowflake') > 0, 1, 0)) AS snowflake,
+    sum(if(positionCaseInsensitive(body, 'postgres') > 0, 1, 0)) AS postgres
+FROM reddit
+GROUP BY quarter
+ORDER BY quarter ASC;

-# Storing details for connecting to external sources in configuration files
+Named collections provide a way to store collections of key-value pairs to be 
+used to configure integrations with external sources. You can use named collections with
+dictionaries, tables, table functions, and object storage. 

-Details for connecting to external sources (dictionaries, tables, table functions) can be saved
-in configuration files and thus simplify the creation of objects and hide credentials
-from users with only SQL access.
+Named collections can be configured with DDL or in configuration files and are applied
+when ClickHouse starts. They simplify the creation of objects and the hiding of credentials
+from users without administrative access.

-Parameters can be set in XML `<format>CSV</format>` and overridden in SQL `, format = 'TSV'`.
-The parameters in SQL can be overridden using format `key` = `value`: `compression_method = 'gzip'`.
+The keys in a named collection must match the parameter names of the corresponding
+function, table engine, database, etc. In the examples below the parameter list is
+linked to for each type.

-Named collections are stored in the `config.xml` file of the ClickHouse server in the `<named_collections>` section and are applied when ClickHouse starts.
+Parameters set in a named collection can be overridden in SQL, this is shown in the examples
+below.

-Example of configuration:
-```xml
-$ cat /etc/clickhouse-server/config.d/named_collections.xml
+## Storing named collections in the system database
+
+### DDL example
+
+```sql
+CREATE NAMED COLLECTION name AS
+key_1 = 'value',
+key_2 = 'value2',
+url = 'https://connection.url/'
+```
+
+### Permissions to create named collections with DDL
+
+To manage named collections with DDL a user must have the `named_control_collection` privilege.  This can be assigned by adding a file to `/etc/clickhouse-server/users.d/`.  The example gives the user `default` both the `access_management` and `named_collection_control` privileges:
+
+```xml title='/etc/clickhouse-server/users.d/user_default.xml'
+<clickhouse>
+  <users>
+    <default>
+      <password_sha256_hex>65e84be33532fb784c48129675f9eff3a682b27168c0ea744b2cf58ee02337c5</password_sha256_hex replace=true>
+      <access_management>1</access_management>
+      <!-- highlight-start -->
+      <named_collection_control>1</named_collection_control>
+      <!-- highlight-end -->
+    </default>
+  </users>
+</clickhouse>
+```
+
+:::tip
+In the above example the `passowrd_sha256_hex` value is the hexadecimal representation of the SHA256 hash of the password.  This configuration for the user `default` has the attribute `replace=true` as in the default configuration has a plain text `password` set, and it is not possible to have both plain text and sha256 hex passwords set for a user.

 ## Working with Data Types

-The maximum size of an array is limited to one million elements.
-
 When creating an array on the fly, ClickHouse automatically defines the argument type as the narrowest data type that can store all the listed arguments. If there are any [Nullable](../../sql-reference/data-types/nullable.md#data_type-nullable) or literal [NULL](../../sql-reference/syntax.md#null-literal) values, the type of an array element also becomes [Nullable](../../sql-reference/data-types/nullable.md).

 If ClickHouse couldn’t determine the data type, it generates an exception. For instance, this happens when trying to create an array with strings and numbers simultaneously (`SELECT array(1, 'a')`).

+## Regular Expression Tree Dictionary {#regexp-tree-dictionary}

-Regexp Tree dictionary stores multiple trees of regular expressions with attributions. Users can retrieve strings in the dictionary. If a string matches the root of the regexp tree, we will collect the corresponding attributes of the matched root and continue to walk the children. If any of the children matches the string, we will collect attributes and rewrite the old ones if conflicts occur, then continue the traverse until we reach leaf nodes.
+Regular expression tree dictionaries are a special type of dictionary which represent the mapping from key to attributes using a tree of regular expressions. There are some use cases, e.g. parsing of (user agent)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_agent] strings, which can be expressed elegantly with regexp tree dictionaries.

-The key `regexp` represents the regular expression of a tree node. The name of key is same as the dictionary key. The `name` and `version` is user-defined attributions in the dicitionary. The `versions` (which can be any name that not appear in attributions or the key) indicates the children nodes of this tree.
+This config consists of a list of regular expression tree nodes. Each node has the following structure:

-**Back Reference**
+- **regexp**: the regular expression of the node.
+- **attributes**: a list of user-defined dictionary attributes. In this example, there are two attributes: `name` and `version`. The first node defines both attributes. The second node only defines attribute `name`. Attribute `version` is provided by the child nodes of the second node.
+  - The value of an attribute may contain **back references**, referring to capture groups of the matched regular expression. In the example, the value of attribute `version` in the first node consists of a back-reference `\1` to capture group `(\d+[\.\d]*)` in the regular expression. Back-reference numbers range from 1 to 9 and are written as `$1` or `\1` (for number 1). The back reference is replaced by the matched capture group during query execution.
+- **child nodes**: a list of children of a regexp tree node, each of which has its own attributes and (potentially) children nodes. String matching proceeds in a depth-first fashion. If a string matches a regexp node, the dictionary checks if it also matches the nodes' child nodes. If that is the case, the attributes of the deepest matching node are assigned. Attributes of a child node overwrite equally named attributes of parent nodes. The name of child nodes in YAML files can be arbitrary, e.g. `versions` in above example.

-The value of an attribution could contain a back reference which refers to a capture group of the matched regular expression. Reference number ranges from 1 to 9 and writes as `$1` or `\1`.
-
-During the query execution, the back reference in the value will be replaced by the matched capture group.

-**Query**
-
-Due to the specialty of Regexp Tree dictionary, we only allow functions `dictGet`, `dictGetOrDefault` and `dictGetOrNull` work with it.
+Regexp tree dictionaries only allow access using functions `dictGet`, `dictGetOrDefault` and `dictGetOrNull`.

 Example:

@ -2262,12 +2290,83 @@ SELECT dictGet('regexp_dict', ('name', 'version'), '31/tclwebkit1024');

 Result:

-```

 ┌─dictGet('regexp_dict', ('name', 'version'), '31/tclwebkit1024')─┐

 └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
 ```

+In this case, we first match the regular expression `\d+/tclwebkit(?:\d+[\.\d]*)` in the top layer's second node. The dictionary then continues to look into the child nodes and finds that the string also matches `3[12]/tclwebkit`. As a result, the value of attribute `name` is `Android` (defined in the first layer) and the value of attribute `version` is `12` (defined the child node).
+
+With a powerful YAML configure file, we can use a regexp tree dictionaries as a user agent string parser. We support [uap-core](https://github.com/ua-parser/uap-core) and demonstrate how to use it in the functional test [02504_regexp_dictionary_ua_parser](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/blob/master/tests/queries/0_stateless/02504_regexp_dictionary_ua_parser.sh)
+
+### Use Regular Expression Tree Dictionary in ClickHouse Cloud
+
+Above used `YAMLRegExpTree` source works in ClickHouse Open Source but not in ClickHouse Cloud. To use regexp tree dictionaries in ClickHouse could, first create a regexp tree dictionary from a YAML file locally in ClickHouse Open Source, then dump this dictionary into a CSV file using the `dictionary` table function and the [INTO OUTFILE](../statements/select/into-outfile.md) clause.
+
+```sql
+SELECT * FROM dictionary(regexp_dict) INTO OUTFILE('regexp_dict.csv')
+```
+
+The content of csv file is:
+
+```text
+1,0,"Linux/(\d+[\.\d]*).+tlinux","['version','name']","['\\1','TencentOS']"
+2,0,"(\d+)/tclwebkit(\d+[\.\d]*)","['comment','version','name']","['test $1 and $2','$1','Android']"
+3,2,"33/tclwebkit","['version']","['13']"
+4,2,"3[12]/tclwebkit","['version']","['12']"
+5,2,"3[12]/tclwebkit","['version']","['11']"
+6,2,"3[12]/tclwebkit","['version']","['10']"
+```
+
+The schema of dumped file is:
+
+- `id UInt64`: the id of the RegexpTree node.
+- `parent_id UInt64`: the id of the parent of a node.
+- `regexp String`: the regular expression string.
+- `keys Array(String)`: the names of user-defined attributes.
+- `values Array(String)`: the values of user-defined attributes.
+
+To create the dictionary in ClickHouse Cloud, first create a table `regexp_dictionary_source_table` with below table structure:
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE regexp_dictionary_source_table
+(
+    id UInt64,
+    parent_id UInt64,
+    regexp String,
+    keys   Array(String),
+    values Array(String)
+) ENGINE=Memory;
+```
+
+Then update the local CSV by
+
+```bash
+clickhouse client \
+    --host MY_HOST \
+    --secure \
+    --password MY_PASSWORD \
+    --query "
+    INSERT INTO regexp_dictionary_source_table 
+    SELECT * FROM input ('id UInt64, parent_id UInt64, regexp String, keys Array(String), values Array(String)') 
+    FORMAT CSV" < regexp_dict.csv
+```
+
+You can see how to [Insert Local Files](https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/integrations/data-ingestion/insert-local-files) for more details. After we initialize the source table, we can create a RegexpTree by table source:
+
+``` sql
+CREATE DICTIONARY regexp_dict
+(
+    regexp String,
+    name String,
+    version String
+PRIMARY KEY(regexp)
+SOURCE(CLICKHOUSE(TABLE 'regexp_dictionary_source_table'))
+LIFETIME(0)
+LAYOUT(regexp_tree);
+```

 This is a fast non-cryptographic hash function. It uses the CityHash algorithm for string parameters and implementation-specific fast non-cryptographic hash function for parameters with other data types. The function uses the CityHash combinator to get the final results.

+Note that Google changed the algorithm of CityHash after it has been added to ClickHouse. In other words, ClickHouse's cityHash64 and Google's upstream CityHash now produce different results. ClickHouse cityHash64 corresponds to CityHash v1.0.2.

 **Arguments**

 The function takes a variable number of input parameters. Arguments can be any of the [supported data types](/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/index.md). For some data types calculated value of hash function may be the same for the same values even if types of arguments differ (integers of different size, named and unnamed `Tuple` with the same data, `Map` and the corresponding `Array(Tuple(key, value))` type with the same data).

-Custom functions from lambda expressions can be created using the [CREATE FUNCTION](../statements/create/function.md) statement. To delete these functions use the [DROP FUNCTION](../statements/drop.md#drop-function) statement.
-
-## Executable User Defined Functions
-ClickHouse can call any external executable program or script to process data.
-
-The configuration of executable user defined functions can be located in one or more xml-files. The path to the configuration is specified in the [user_defined_executable_functions_config](../../operations/server-configuration-parameters/settings.md#server_configuration_parameters-user_defined_executable_functions_config) parameter.
-
-A function configuration contains the following settings:
-
- `name` - a function name.
- `command` - script name to execute or command if `execute_direct` is false.
- `argument` - argument description with the `type`, and optional `name` of an argument. Each argument is described in a separate setting. Specifying name is necessary if argument names are part of serialization for user defined function format like [Native](../../interfaces/formats.md#native) or [JSONEachRow](../../interfaces/formats.md#jsoneachrow). Default argument name value is `c` + argument_number.
- `format` - a [format](../../interfaces/formats.md) in which arguments are passed to the command.
- `return_type` - the type of a returned value.
- `return_name` - name of retuned value. Specifying return name is necessary if return name is part of serialization for user defined function format like [Native](../../interfaces/formats.md#native) or [JSONEachRow](../../interfaces/formats.md#jsoneachrow). Optional. Default value is `result`.
- `type` - an executable type. If `type` is set to `executable` then single command is started. If it is set to `executable_pool` then a pool of commands is created.
- `max_command_execution_time` - maximum execution time in seconds for processing block of data. This setting is valid for `executable_pool` commands only. Optional. Default value is `10`.
- `command_termination_timeout` - time in seconds during which a command should finish after its pipe is closed. After that time `SIGTERM` is sent to the process executing the command. Optional. Default value is `10`.
- `command_read_timeout` - timeout for reading data from command stdout in milliseconds. Default value 10000. Optional parameter.
- `command_write_timeout` - timeout for writing data to command stdin in milliseconds. Default value 10000. Optional parameter.
- `pool_size` - the size of a command pool. Optional. Default value is `16`.
- `send_chunk_header` - controls whether to send row count before sending a chunk of data to process. Optional. Default value is `false`.
- `execute_direct` - If `execute_direct` = `1`, then `command` will be searched inside user_scripts folder specified by [user_scripts_path](../../operations/server-configuration-parameters/settings.md#server_configuration_parameters-user_scripts_path). Additional script arguments can be specified using whitespace separator. Example: `script_name arg1 arg2`. If `execute_direct` = `0`, `command` is passed as argument for `bin/sh -c`. Default value is `1`. Optional parameter.
- `lifetime` - the reload interval of a function in seconds. If it is set to `0` then the function is not reloaded. Default value is `0`. Optional parameter.
-
-The command must read arguments from `STDIN` and must output the result to `STDOUT`. The command must process arguments iteratively. That is after processing a chunk of arguments it must wait for the next chunk.

-## Error Handling
-
-Some functions might throw an exception if the data is invalid. In this case, the query is canceled and an error text is returned to the client. For distributed processing, when an exception occurs on one of the servers, the other servers also attempt to abort the query.
-
-## Evaluation of Argument Expressions
-
-In almost all programming languages, one of the arguments might not be evaluated for certain operators. This is usually the operators `&&`, `||`, and `?:`.
-But in ClickHouse, arguments of functions (operators) are always evaluated. This is because entire parts of columns are evaluated at once, instead of calculating each row separately.
-
-## Performing Functions for Distributed Query Processing
-
-For distributed query processing, as many stages of query processing as possible are performed on remote servers, and the rest of the stages (merging intermediate results and everything after that) are performed on the requestor server.
-
-This means that functions can be performed on different servers.
-For example, in the query `SELECT f(sum(g(x))) FROM distributed_table GROUP BY h(y),`
-
- if a `distributed_table` has at least two shards, the functions ‘g’ and ‘h’ are performed on remote servers, and the function ‘f’ is performed on the requestor server.
- if a `distributed_table` has only one shard, all the ‘f’, ‘g’, and ‘h’ functions are performed on this shard’s server.
-
-The result of a function usually does not depend on which server it is performed on. However, sometimes this is important.
-For example, functions that work with dictionaries use the dictionary that exists on the server they are running on.
-Another example is the `hostName` function, which returns the name of the server it is running on in order to make `GROUP BY` by servers in a `SELECT` query.
-
-If a function in a query is performed on the requestor server, but you need to perform it on remote servers, you can wrap it in an ‘any’ aggregate function or add it to a key in `GROUP BY`.
