# Functions for Working with Strings {#functions-for-working-with-strings}
|
||
|
||
!!! note "Note"
|
||
Functions for [searching](../../sql-reference/functions/string-search-functions.md) and [replacing](../../sql-reference/functions/string-replace-functions.md) in strings are described separately.
|
||
|
||
## empty {#empty}
|
||
|
||
Returns 1 for an empty string or 0 for a non-empty string.
|
||
The result type is UInt8.
|
||
A string is considered non-empty if it contains at least one byte, even if this is a space or a null byte.
|
||
The function also works for arrays.
|
||
|
||
## notEmpty {#notempty}
|
||
|
||
Returns 0 for an empty string or 1 for a non-empty string.
|
||
The result type is UInt8.
|
||
The function also works for arrays.
|
||
|
||
## length {#length}
|
||
|
||
Returns the length of a string in bytes (not in characters, and not in code points).
|
||
The result type is UInt64.
|
||
The function also works for arrays.
|
||
|
||
## lengthUTF8 {#lengthutf8}
|
||
|
||
Returns the length of a string in Unicode code points (not in characters), assuming that the string contains a set of bytes that make up UTF-8 encoded text. If this assumption is not met, it returns some result (it does not throw an exception).
|
||
The result type is UInt64.
|
||
|
||
## char_length, CHAR_LENGTH {#char-length}
|
||
|
||
Returns the length of a string in Unicode code points (not in characters), assuming that the string contains a set of bytes that make up UTF-8 encoded text. If this assumption is not met, it returns some result (it does not throw an exception).
|
||
The result type is UInt64.
|
||
|
||
## character_length, CHARACTER_LENGTH {#character-length}
|
||
|
||
Returns the length of a string in Unicode code points (not in characters), assuming that the string contains a set of bytes that make up UTF-8 encoded text. If this assumption is not met, it returns some result (it does not throw an exception).
|
||
The result type is UInt64.
|
||
|
||
## lower, lcase {#lower}
|
||
|
||
Converts ASCII Latin symbols in a string to lowercase.
|
||
|
||
## upper, ucase {#upper}
|
||
|
||
Converts ASCII Latin symbols in a string to uppercase.
|
||
|
||
## lowerUTF8 {#lowerutf8}
|
||
|
||
Converts a string to lowercase, assuming the string contains a set of bytes that make up a UTF-8 encoded text.
|
||
It does not detect the language. So for Turkish the result might not be exactly correct.
|
||
If the length of the UTF-8 byte sequence is different for upper and lower case of a code point, the result may be incorrect for this code point.
|
||
If the string contains a set of bytes that is not UTF-8, then the behavior is undefined.
|
||
|
||
## upperUTF8 {#upperutf8}
|
||
|
||
Converts a string to uppercase, assuming the string contains a set of bytes that make up a UTF-8 encoded text.
|
||
It does not detect the language. So for Turkish the result might not be exactly correct.
|
||
If the length of the UTF-8 byte sequence is different for upper and lower case of a code point, the result may be incorrect for this code point.
|
||
If the string contains a set of bytes that is not UTF-8, then the behavior is undefined.
|
||
|
||
## isValidUTF8 {#isvalidutf8}
|
||
|
||
Returns 1, if the set of bytes is valid UTF-8 encoded, otherwise 0.
|
||
|
||
## toValidUTF8 {#tovalidutf8}
|
||
|
||
Replaces invalid UTF-8 characters by the `<60>` (U+FFFD) character. All running in a row invalid characters are collapsed into the one replacement character.
|
||

||
``` sql
|
||
toValidUTF8(input_string)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Arguments**
|
||
|
||
- `input_string` — Any set of bytes represented as the [String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md) data type object.
|
||
|
||
Returned value: Valid UTF-8 string.
|
||
|
||
**Example**
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SELECT toValidUTF8('\x61\xF0\x80\x80\x80b');
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
``` text
|

|
||
└───────────────────────┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## repeat {#repeat}
|
||
|
||
Repeats a string as many times as specified and concatenates the replicated values as a single string.
|
||
|
||
Alias: `REPEAT`.
|
||
|
||
**Syntax**
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
repeat(s, n)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Arguments**
|
||
|
||
- `s` — The string to repeat. [String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md).
|
||
- `n` — The number of times to repeat the string. [UInt](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md).
|
||
|
||
**Returned value**
|
||
|
||
The single string, which contains the string `s` repeated `n` times. If `n` \< 1, the function returns empty string.
|
||
|
||
Type: `String`.
|
||
|
||
**Example**
|
||
|
||
Query:
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SELECT repeat('abc', 10);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Result:
|
||
|
||
``` text
|
||
┌─repeat('abc', 10)──────────────┐
|
||
│ abcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabc │
|
||
└────────────────────────────────┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## reverse {#reverse}
|
||
|
||
Reverses the string (as a sequence of bytes).
|
||
|
||
## reverseUTF8 {#reverseutf8}
|
||
|
||
Reverses a sequence of Unicode code points, assuming that the string contains a set of bytes representing a UTF-8 text. Otherwise, it does something else (it does not throw an exception).
|
||
|
||
## format(pattern, s0, s1, …) {#format}
|
||
|
||
Formatting constant pattern with the string listed in the arguments. `pattern` is a simplified Python format pattern. Format string contains “replacement fields” surrounded by curly braces `{}`. Anything that is not contained in braces is considered literal text, which is copied unchanged to the output. If you need to include a brace character in the literal text, it can be escaped by doubling: `{{ '{{' }}` and `{{ '}}' }}`. Field names can be numbers (starting from zero) or empty (then they are treated as consequence numbers).
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SELECT format('{1} {0} {1}', 'World', 'Hello')
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
``` text
|
||
┌─format('{1} {0} {1}', 'World', 'Hello')─┐
|
||
│ Hello World Hello │
|
||
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SELECT format('{} {}', 'Hello', 'World')
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
``` text
|
||
┌─format('{} {}', 'Hello', 'World')─┐
|
||
│ Hello World │
|
||
└───────────────────────────────────┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## concat {#concat}
|
||
|
||
Concatenates the strings listed in the arguments, without a separator.
|
||
|
||
**Syntax**
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
concat(s1, s2, ...)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Arguments**
|
||
|
||
Values of type String or FixedString.
|
||
|
||
**Returned values**
|
||
|
||
Returns the String that results from concatenating the arguments.
|
||
|
||
If any of argument values is `NULL`, `concat` returns `NULL`.
|
||
|
||
**Example**
|
||
|
||
Query:
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SELECT concat('Hello, ', 'World!');
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Result:
|
||
|
||
``` text
|
||
┌─concat('Hello, ', 'World!')─┐
|
||
│ Hello, World! │
|
||
└─────────────────────────────┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## concatAssumeInjective {#concatassumeinjective}
|
||
|
||
Same as [concat](#concat), the difference is that you need to ensure that `concat(s1, s2, ...) → sn` is injective, it will be used for optimization of GROUP BY.
|
||
|
||
The function is named “injective” if it always returns different result for different values of arguments. In other words: different arguments never yield identical result.
|
||
|
||
**Syntax**
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
concatAssumeInjective(s1, s2, ...)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Arguments**
|
||
|
||
Values of type String or FixedString.
|
||
|
||
**Returned values**
|
||
|
||
Returns the String that results from concatenating the arguments.
|
||
|
||
If any of argument values is `NULL`, `concatAssumeInjective` returns `NULL`.
|
||
|
||
**Example**
|
||
|
||
Input table:
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
CREATE TABLE key_val(`key1` String, `key2` String, `value` UInt32) ENGINE = TinyLog;
|
||
INSERT INTO key_val VALUES ('Hello, ','World',1), ('Hello, ','World',2), ('Hello, ','World!',3), ('Hello',', World!',2);
|
||
SELECT * from key_val;
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
``` text
|
||
┌─key1────┬─key2─────┬─value─┐
|
||
│ Hello, │ World │ 1 │
|
||
│ Hello, │ World │ 2 │
|
||
│ Hello, │ World! │ 3 │
|
||
│ Hello │ , World! │ 2 │
|
||
└─────────┴──────────┴───────┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Query:
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SELECT concat(key1, key2), sum(value) FROM key_val GROUP BY concatAssumeInjective(key1, key2);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Result:
|
||
|
||
``` text
|
||
┌─concat(key1, key2)─┬─sum(value)─┐
|
||
│ Hello, World! │ 3 │
|
||
│ Hello, World! │ 2 │
|
||
│ Hello, World │ 3 │
|
||
└────────────────────┴────────────┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## substring(s, offset, length), mid(s, offset, length), substr(s, offset, length) {#substring}
|
||
|
||
Returns a substring starting with the byte from the ‘offset’ index that is ‘length’ bytes long. Character indexing starts from one (as in standard SQL). The ‘offset’ and ‘length’ arguments must be constants.
|
||
|
||
## substringUTF8(s, offset, length) {#substringutf8}
|
||
|
||
The same as ‘substring’, but for Unicode code points. Works under the assumption that the string contains a set of bytes representing a UTF-8 encoded text. If this assumption is not met, it returns some result (it does not throw an exception).
|
||
|
||
## appendTrailingCharIfAbsent(s, c) {#appendtrailingcharifabsent}
|
||
|
||
If the ‘s’ string is non-empty and does not contain the ‘c’ character at the end, it appends the ‘c’ character to the end.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
Decode base64-encoded string ‘s’ into original string. In case of failure raises an exception.

|
||
|
||
## tryBase64Decode(s) {#trybase64decode}
|
||
|
||
Similar to base64Decode, but in case of error an empty string would be returned.
|
||
|
||
## endsWith(s, suffix) {#endswith}
|
||
|
||
Returns whether to end with the specified suffix. Returns 1 if the string ends with the specified suffix, otherwise it returns 0.
|
||
|
||
## startsWith(str, prefix) {#startswith}
|
||
|
||
Returns 1 whether string starts with the specified prefix, otherwise it returns 0.

||
|
||
**Returned values**

||
``` sql
|
||
decodeXMLComponent(x)
|
||
```
|
||

|
||
- `x` — A sequence of characters. [String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md).
|
||
|
||
**Returned value**
|
||
|
||
- The sequence of characters after replacement.
|
||
|
||
Type: [String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md).

**Example**
|
||
|
||
Query:
|
||

## extractTextFromHTML {#extracttextfromhtml}
|
||
|
||
A function to extract text from HTML or XHTML.
|
||
It does not necessarily 100% conform to any of the HTML, XML or XHTML standards, but the implementation is reasonably accurate and it is fast. The rules are the following:
|
||
|
||
1. Comments are skipped. Example: `<!-- test -->`. Comment must end with `-->`. Nested comments are not possible.
|
||
Note: constructions like `<!-->` and `<!--->` are not valid comments in HTML but they are skipped by other rules.
|
||
2. CDATA is pasted verbatim. Note: CDATA is XML/XHTML specific. But it is processed for "best-effort" approach.
|
||
3. `script` and `style` elements are removed with all their content. Note: it is assumed that closing tag cannot appear inside content. For example, in JS string literal has to be escaped like `"<\/script>"`.
|
||
Note: comments and CDATA are possible inside `script` or `style` - then closing tags are not searched inside CDATA. Example: `<script><![CDATA[</script>]]></script>`. But they are still searched inside comments. Sometimes it becomes complicated: `<script>var x = "<!--"; </script> var y = "-->"; alert(x + y);</script>`
|
||
Note: `script` and `style` can be the names of XML namespaces - then they are not treated like usual `script` or `style` elements. Example: `<script:a>Hello</script:a>`.
|
||
Note: whitespaces are possible after closing tag name: `</script >` but not before: `< / script>`.
|
||
4. Other tags or tag-like elements are skipped without inner content. Example: `<a>.</a>`
|
||
Note: it is expected that this HTML is illegal: `<a test=">"></a>`
|
||
Note: it also skips something like tags: `<>`, `<!>`, etc.
|
||
Note: tag without end is skipped to the end of input: `<hello `
|
||
5. HTML and XML entities are not decoded. They must be processed by separate function.
|
||
6. Whitespaces in the text are collapsed or inserted by specific rules.
|
||
- Whitespaces at the beginning and at the end are removed.
|
||
- Consecutive whitespaces are collapsed.
|
||
- But if the text is separated by other elements and there is no whitespace, it is inserted.
|
||
- It may cause unnatural examples: `Hello<b>world</b>`, `Hello<!-- -->world` - there is no whitespace in HTML, but the function inserts it. Also consider: `Hello<p>world</p>`, `Hello<br>world`. This behavior is reasonable for data analysis, e.g. to convert HTML to a bag of words.
|
||
7. Also note that correct handling of whitespaces requires the support of `<pre></pre>` and CSS `display` and `white-space` properties.
|
||
|
||
**Syntax**
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
extractTextFromHTML(x)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Arguments**
|
||
|
||
- `x` — input text. [String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md).
|
||
|
||
**Returned value**
|
||
|
||
- Extracted text.
|
||
|
||
Type: [String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md).
|
||
|
||
**Example**
|
||
|
||
The first example contains several tags and a comment and also shows whitespace processing.
|
||
The second example shows `CDATA` and `script` tag processing.
|
||
In the third example text is extracted from the full HTML response received by the [url](../../sql-reference/table-functions/url.md) function.
|
||
|
||
Query:
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SELECT extractTextFromHTML(' <p> A text <i>with</i><b>tags</b>. <!-- comments --> </p> ');
|
||
SELECT extractTextFromHTML('<![CDATA[The content within <b>CDATA</b>]]> <script>alert("Script");</script>');
|
||
SELECT extractTextFromHTML(html) FROM url('http://www.donothingfor2minutes.com/', RawBLOB, 'html String');
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Result:
|
||
|
||
``` text
|
||
A text with tags .
|
||
The content within <b>CDATA</b>
|
||
Do Nothing for 2 Minutes 2:00
