# Dictionary
|
|
|
|
The `Dictionary` engine displays the dictionary data as a ClickHouse table.
|
|
|
|
As an example, consider a dictionary of `products` with the following configuration:
|
|
|
|
```xml
|
|
<dictionaries>
|
|
<dictionary>
|
|
<name>products</name>
|
|
<source>
|
|
<odbc>
|
|
<table>products</table>
|
|
<connection_string>DSN=some-db-server</connection_string>
|
|
</odbc>
|
|
</source>
|
|
<lifetime>
|
|
<min>300</min>
|
|
<max>360</max>
|
|
</lifetime>
|
|
<layout>
|
|
<flat/>
|
|
</layout>
|
|
<structure>
|
|
<id>
|
|
<name>product_id</name>
|
|
</id>
|
|
<attribute>
|
|
<name>title</name>
|
|
<type>String</type>
|
|
<null_value></null_value>
|
|
</attribute>
|
|
</structure>
|
|
</dictionary>
|
|
</dictionaries>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Query the dictionary data:
|
|
|
|
``` sql
|
|
select name, type, key, attribute.names, attribute.types, bytes_allocated, element_count,source from system.dictionaries where name = 'products';
|
|
|
|
SELECT
|
|
name,
|
|
type,
|
|
key,
|
|
attribute.names,
|
|
attribute.types,
|
|
bytes_allocated,
|
|
element_count,
|
|
source
|
|
FROM system.dictionaries
|
|
WHERE name = 'products'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
┌─name─────┬─type─┬─key────┬─attribute.names─┬─attribute.types─┬─bytes_allocated─┬─element_count─┬─source──────────┐
|
|
│ products │ Flat │ UInt64 │ ['title'] │ ['String'] │ 23065376 │ 175032 │ ODBC: .products │
|
|
└──────────┴──────┴────────┴─────────────────┴─────────────────┴─────────────────┴───────────────┴─────────────────┘
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can use the [dictGet*](../../query_language/functions/ext_dict_functions.md#ext_dict_functions) function to get the dictionary data in this format.
|
|
|
|
This view isn't helpful when you need to get raw data, or when performing a `JOIN` operation. For these cases, you can use the `Dictionary` engine, which displays the dictionary data in a table.
|
|
|
|
Syntax:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
CREATE TABLE %table_name% (%fields%) engine = Dictionary(%dictionary_name%)`
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Usage example:
|
|
|
|
``` sql
|
|
create table products (product_id UInt64, title String) Engine = Dictionary(products);
|
|
|
|
CREATE TABLE products
|
|
(
|
|
product_id UInt64,
|
|
title String,
|
|
)
|
|
ENGINE = Dictionary(products)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Ok.
|
|
|
|
0 rows in set. Elapsed: 0.004 sec.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Take a look at what's in the table.
|
|
|
|
``` sql
|
|
select * from products limit 1;
|
|
|
|
SELECT *
|
|
FROM products
|
|
LIMIT 1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
┌────product_id─┬─title───────────┐
|
|
│ 152689 │ Some item │
|
|
└───────────────┴─────────────────┘
|
|
|
|
1 rows in set. Elapsed: 0.006 sec.
|
|
```
