# mysql
Allows `SELECT` and `INSERT` queries to be performed on data that is stored on a remote MySQL server.
**Syntax**
``` sql
mysql('host:port', 'database', 'table', 'user', 'password'[, replace_query, 'on_duplicate_clause'])
```
**Arguments**
- `host:port` — MySQL server address.
- `database` — Remote database name.
- `table` — Remote table name.
- `user` — MySQL user.
- `password` — User password.
- `replace_query` — Flag that converts `INSERT INTO` queries to `REPLACE INTO`. Possible values:
- `0` - The query is executed as `INSERT INTO`.
- `1` - The query is executed as `REPLACE INTO`.
- `on_duplicate_clause` — The `ON DUPLICATE KEY on_duplicate_clause` expression that is added to the `INSERT` query. Can be specified only with `replace_query = 0` (if you simultaneously pass `replace_query = 1` and `on_duplicate_clause`, ClickHouse generates an exception).
Example: `INSERT INTO t (c1,c2) VALUES ('a', 2) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE c2 = c2 + 1;`
`on_duplicate_clause` here is `UPDATE c2 = c2 + 1`. See the MySQL documentation to find which `on_duplicate_clause` you can use with the `ON DUPLICATE KEY` clause.
Simple `WHERE` clauses such as `=, !=, >, >=, <, <=` are currently executed on the MySQL server.
The rest of the conditions and the `LIMIT` sampling constraint are executed in ClickHouse only after the query to MySQL finishes.
Supports multiple replicas that must be listed by `|`. For example:
```sql
SELECT name FROM mysql(`mysql{1|2|3}:3306`, 'mysql_database', 'mysql_table', 'user', 'password');
```
or
```sql
SELECT name FROM mysql(`mysql1:3306|mysql2:3306|mysql3:3306`, 'mysql_database', 'mysql_table', 'user', 'password');
```
**Returned Value**
A table object with the same columns as the original MySQL table.
:::note
In the `INSERT` query to distinguish table function `mysql(...)` from table name with column names list, you must use keywords `FUNCTION` or `TABLE FUNCTION`. See examples below.

**Examples**
Table in MySQL:
``` text
mysql> CREATE TABLE `test`.`test` (
-> `int_id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
-> `float` FLOAT NOT NULL,
-> PRIMARY KEY (`int_id`));
mysql> INSERT INTO test (`int_id`, `float`) VALUES (1,2);
mysql> SELECT * FROM test;
+--------+-------+
| int_id | float |
+--------+-------+
| 1 | 2 |
+--------+-------+
```
Selecting data from ClickHouse:
``` sql
SELECT * FROM mysql('localhost:3306', 'test', 'test', 'bayonet', '123');
```
``` text
┌─int_id─┬─float─┐
│ 1 │ 2 │
└────────┴───────┘
```
Replacing and inserting:
```sql
INSERT INTO FUNCTION mysql('localhost:3306', 'test', 'test', 'bayonet', '123', 1) (int_id, float) VALUES (1, 3);
INSERT INTO TABLE FUNCTION mysql('localhost:3306', 'test', 'test', 'bayonet', '123', 0, 'UPDATE int_id = int_id + 1') (int_id, float) VALUES (1, 4);
SELECT * FROM mysql('localhost:3306', 'test', 'test', 'bayonet', '123');
```
``` text
┌─int_id─┬─float─┐
│ 1 │ 3 │
│ 2 │ 4 │
└────────┴───────┘
```
Copying data from MySQL table into ClickHouse table:
```sql
CREATE TABLE mysql_copy
(
`id` UInt64,
`datetime` DateTime('UTC'),
`description` String,
)
ENGINE = MergeTree
ORDER BY (id,datetime);
INSERT INTO mysql_copy
SELECT * FROM mysql('host:port', 'database', 'table', 'user', 'password');
```
Or if copying only an incremental batch from MySQL based on the max current id:
```sql
INSERT INTO mysql_copy
SELECT * FROM mysql('host:port', 'database', 'table', 'user', 'password')
WHERE id > (SELECT max(id) from mysql_copy);
```
