# Analyzing Stack Overflow data with ClickHouse
This dataset contains every `Post`, `User`, `Vote`, `Comment`, `Badge, `PostHistory`, and `PostLink` that has occurred on Stack Overflow.
Users can either download pre-prepared Parquet versions of the data, containing every post up to April 2024, or download the latest data in XML format and load this. Stack Overflow provide updates to this data periodically - historically every 3 months.
The following diagram shows the schema for the available tables assuming Parquet format.

A description of the schema of this data can be found [here](https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/2677/database-schema-documentation-for-the-public-data-dump-and-sede).
## Pre-prepared data
We provide a copy of this data in Parquet format, up to date as of April 2024. While small for ClickHouse with respect to the number of rows (60 million posts), this dataset contains significant volumes of text and large String columns.
```sql
CREATE DATABASE stackoverflow
```
The following timings are for a 96 GiB, 24 vCPU ClickHouse Cloud cluster located in `eu-west-2`. The dataset is located in `eu-west-3`.

```
## Original dataset
The original dataset is available in compressed (7zip) XML format at [https://archive.org/download/stackexchange](https://archive.org/download/stackexchange) - files with prefix `stackoverflow.com*`.
### Download
```bash
wget https://archive.org/download/stackexchange/stackoverflow.com-Badges.7z
wget https://archive.org/download/stackexchange/stackoverflow.com-Comments.7z
wget https://archive.org/download/stackexchange/stackoverflow.com-PostHistory.7z
wget https://archive.org/download/stackexchange/stackoverflow.com-PostLinks.7z
wget https://archive.org/download/stackexchange/stackoverflow.com-Posts.7z
wget https://archive.org/download/stackexchange/stackoverflow.com-Users.7z
wget https://archive.org/download/stackexchange/stackoverflow.com-Votes.7z
```
These files are up to 35GB and can take around 30 mins to download depending on internet connection - the download server throttles at around 20MB/sec.
### Convert to JSON
At the time of writing, ClickHouse does not have native support for XML as an input format. To load the data into ClickHouse we first convert to NDJSON.
To convert XML to JSON we recommend the [`xq`](https://github.com/kislyuk/yq) linux tool, a simple `jq` wrapper for XML documents.
Install xq and jq:
```bash
sudo apt install jq
pip install yq
```
The following steps apply to any of the above files. We use the `stackoverflow.com-Posts.7z` file as an example. Modify as required.
Extract the file using [p7zip](https://p7zip.sourceforge.net/). This will produce a single xml file - in this case `Posts.xml`.
> Files are compressed approximately 4.5x. At 22GB compressed, the posts file requires around 97G uncompressed.
```bash
p7zip -d stackoverflow.com-Posts.7z
```
The following splits the xml file into files, each containing 10000 rows.
```bash
mkdir posts
cd posts
# the following splits the input xml file into sub files of 10000 rows
tail +3 ../Posts.xml | head -n -1 | split -l 10000 --filter='{ printf "<rows>\n"; cat - ; printf "</rows>\n"; } > $FILE' -
```
After running the above users will have a set of files, each with 10000 lines. This ensures the memory overhead of the next command is not excessive (xml to JSON conversion is done in memory).
```bash
find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -exec xq -c '.rows.row[]' {} \; | sed -e 's:"@:":g' > posts_v2.json
```
The above command will produce a single `posts.json` file.
Load into ClickHouse with the following command. Note the schema is specified for the `posts.json` file. This will need to be adjusted per data type to align with the target table.
```bash
clickhouse local --query "SELECT * FROM file('posts.json', JSONEachRow, 'Id Int32, PostTypeId UInt8, AcceptedAnswerId UInt32, CreationDate DateTime64(3, \'UTC\'), Score Int32, ViewCount UInt32, Body String, OwnerUserId Int32, OwnerDisplayName String, LastEditorUserId Int32, LastEditorDisplayName String, LastEditDate DateTime64(3, \'UTC\'), LastActivityDate DateTime64(3, \'UTC\'), Title String, Tags String, AnswerCount UInt16, CommentCount UInt8, FavoriteCount UInt8, ContentLicense String, ParentId String, CommunityOwnedDate DateTime64(3, \'UTC\'), ClosedDate DateTime64(3, \'UTC\')') FORMAT Native" | clickhouse client --host <host> --secure --password <password> --query "INSERT INTO stackoverflow.posts_v2 FORMAT Native"
```
## Example queries
A few simple questions to you get started.
### Most popular tags on Stack Overflow

arrayJoin(arrayFilter(t -> (t != ''), splitByChar('|', Tags))) AS Tags,
count() AS c
FROM stackoverflow.posts
GROUP BY Tags
ORDER BY c DESC
LIMIT 10

### User with the most answers (active accounts)
Account requires a `UserId`.
