SHOW Statements

SHOW CREATE TABLE

SHOW CREATE [TEMPORARY] [TABLE|DICTIONARY] [db.]table [INTO OUTFILE filename] [FORMAT format]

Returns a single String-type statement column, which contains a single value the CREATE query used for creating the specified object.

SHOW DATABASES

Prints a list of all databases.

SHOW DATABASES [LIKE | ILIKE | NOT LIKE '<pattern>'] [LIMIT <N>] [INTO OUTFILE filename] [FORMAT format]

This statement is identical to the query:

SELECT name FROM system.databases [WHERE name LIKE | ILIKE | NOT LIKE '<pattern>'] [LIMIT <N>] [INTO OUTFILE filename] [FORMAT format]

Examples

Getting database names, containing the symbols sequence 'de' in their names:

SHOW DATABASES LIKE '%de%'

Result:

┌─name────┐
│ default │
└─────────┘

Getting database names, containing symbols sequence 'de' in their names, in the case insensitive manner:

SHOW DATABASES ILIKE '%DE%'

Result:

┌─name────┐
│ default │
└─────────┘

Getting database names, not containing the symbols sequence 'de' in their names:

SHOW DATABASES NOT LIKE '%de%'

Result:

┌─name───────────────────────────┐
│ _temporary_and_external_tables │
│ system                         │
│ test                           │
│ tutorial                       │
└────────────────────────────────┘

Getting the first two rows from database names:

SHOW DATABASES LIMIT 2

Result:

┌─name───────────────────────────┐
│ _temporary_and_external_tables │
│ default                        │
└────────────────────────────────┘

SHOW PROCESSLIST

SHOW PROCESSLIST [INTO OUTFILE filename] [FORMAT format]

Outputs the content of the system.processes table, that contains a list of queries that is being processed at the moment, excepting SHOW PROCESSLIST queries.

The SELECT * FROM system.processes query returns data about all the current queries.

Tip (execute in the console):

$ watch -n1 "clickhouse-client --query='SHOW PROCESSLIST'"

SHOW TABLES

Displays a list of tables.

SHOW [TEMPORARY] TABLES [{FROM | IN} <db>] [LIKE | ILIKE | NOT LIKE '<pattern>'] [LIMIT <N>] [INTO OUTFILE <filename>] [FORMAT <format>]

If the FROM clause is not specified, the query returns the list of tables from the current database.

This statement is identical to the query:

SELECT name FROM system.tables [WHERE name LIKE | ILIKE | NOT LIKE '<pattern>'] [LIMIT <N>] [INTO OUTFILE <filename>] [FORMAT <format>]

Examples

Getting table names, containing the symbols sequence 'user' in their names:

SHOW TABLES FROM system LIKE '%user%'

Result:

┌─name─────────────┐
│ user_directories │
│ users            │
└──────────────────┘

Getting table names, containing sequence 'user' in their names, in the case insensitive manner:

SHOW TABLES FROM system ILIKE '%USER%'

Result:

┌─name─────────────┐
│ user_directories │
│ users            │
└──────────────────┘

Getting table names, not containing the symbol sequence 's' in their names:

SHOW TABLES FROM system NOT LIKE '%s%'

Result:

┌─name─────────┐
│ metric_log   │
│ metric_log_0 │
│ metric_log_1 │
└──────────────┘

Getting the first two rows from table names:

SHOW TABLES FROM system LIMIT 2

Result:

┌─name───────────────────────────┐
│ aggregate_function_combinators │
│ asynchronous_metric_log        │
└────────────────────────────────┘

SHOW DICTIONARIES

Displays a list of external dictionaries.

SHOW DICTIONARIES [FROM <db>] [LIKE '<pattern>'] [LIMIT <N>] [INTO OUTFILE <filename>] [FORMAT <format>]

If the FROM clause is not specified, the query returns the list of dictionaries from the current database.

You can get the same results as the SHOW DICTIONARIES query in the following way:

SELECT name FROM system.dictionaries WHERE database = <db> [AND name LIKE <pattern>] [LIMIT <N>] [INTO OUTFILE <filename>] [FORMAT <format>]

Example

The following query selects the first two rows from the list of tables in the system database, whose names contain reg.

SHOW DICTIONARIES FROM db LIKE '%reg%' LIMIT 2
┌─name─────────┐
│ regions      │
│ region_names │
└──────────────┘
