sqlp.rs

static USAGE: &str = r#"
Run blazing-fast Polars SQL queries against several CSVs - replete with joins, aggregations,
grouping, table functions, sorting, and more - working on larger than memory CSV files.

Polars SQL is a SQL dialect, converting SQL queries to fast Polars LazyFrame expressions
(see https://docs.pola.rs/user-guide/sql/intro/).

For a list of SQL functions and keywords supported by Polars SQL, see
https://github.com/pola-rs/polars/blob/rs-0.40.0/crates/polars-sql/src/functions.rs
https://github.com/pola-rs/polars/blob/rs-0.40.0/crates/polars-sql/src/keywords.rs and
https://github.com/pola-rs/polars/issues/7227

Returns the shape of the query result (number of rows, number of columns) to stderr.

Example queries:

   qsv sqlp data.csv 'select * from data where col1 > 10 order by col2 desc limit 20'

   qsv sqlp data.csv 'select col1, col2 as friendlyname from data' --format parquet --output data.parquet

  # enclose column names with spaces in double quotes
   qsv sqlp data.csv 'select "col 1", "col 2" from data'

   qsv sqlp data.csv data2.csv 'select * from data join data2 on data.colname = data2.colname'

   qsv sqlp data.csv data2.csv 'SELECT col1 FROM data WHERE col1 IN (SELECT col2 FROM data2)'

   qsv sqlp data1.csv data2.csv 'SELECT * FROM data1 UNION ALL BY NAME SELECT * FROM data2'

   qsv sqlp tbl_a.csv tbl_b.csv tbl_c.csv "SELECT * FROM tbl_a \
     RIGHT ANTI JOIN tbl_b USING (b) \
     LEFT SEMI JOIN tbl_c USING (c)"

  # use "_t_N" aliases to refer to input files, where N is the 1-based index
  # of the input file/s. For example, _t_1 refers to the first input file, _t_2
  # refers to the second input file, and so on.
   qsv sqlp data.csv data2.csv 'select * from _t_1 join _t_2 on _t_1.colname = _t_2.colname'

   qsv sqlp data.csv 'SELECT col1, count(*) AS cnt FROM data GROUP BY col1 ORDER BY cnt DESC, col1 ASC'

   qsv sqlp data.csv "select lower(col1), substr(col2, 2, 4) from data WHERE starts_with(col1, 'foo')"

   qsv sqlp data.csv "select COALESCE(NULLIF(col2, ''), 'foo') from data"

   qsv sqlp tbl1.csv "SELECT x FROM tbl1 WHERE x IN (SELECT y FROM tbl1)"

  # Use a SQL script to run a long, complex SQL query or to run SEVERAL SQL queries.
  # When running several queries, each query needs to be separated by a semicolon,
  # the last query will be returned as the result.
  # Typically, earlier queries are used to create tables that can be used in later queries.
  # Note that scripts support single-line comments starting with '--' so feel free to
  # add comments to your script.
  # In long, complex scripts that produce multiple temporary tables, note that you can use
  # `truncate table <table_name>;` to free up memory used by temporary tables. Otherwise,
  # the memory used by the temporary tables won't be freed until the script finishes.
  # See test_sqlp/sqlp_boston311_sql_script() for an example.
   qsv sqlp data.csv data2.csv data3.csv data4.csv script.sql --format json --output data.json

  # use Common Table Expressions (CTEs) using WITH to simplify complex queries
   qsv sqlp people.csv "WITH millennials AS (SELECT * FROM people WHERE age >= 25 and age <= 40) \
     SELECT * FROM millennials WHERE STARTS_WITH(name,'C')"

  # CASE statement
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select CASE WHEN col1 > 10 THEN 'foo' WHEN col1 > 5 THEN 'bar' ELSE 'baz' END from data"
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select CASE col*5 WHEN 10 THEN 'foo' WHEN 5 THEN 'bar' ELSE 'baz' END from _t_1"

  # spaceship operator: "<=>" (three-way comparison operator)
  #  returns -1 if left < right, 0 if left == right, 1 if left > right
  # https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-way_comparison#Spaceship_operator
   qsv sqlp data.csv data2.csv "select data.c2 <=> data2.c2 from data join data2 on data.c1 = data2.c1"

  # regex operators: "~" (contains pattern, case-sensitive); "~*" (contains pattern, case-insensitive)
  #   "!~" (does not contain pattern, case-sensitive); "!~*" (does not contain pattern, case-insensitive)
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select * from data WHERE col1 ~ '^foo' AND col2 > 10"
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select * from data WHERE col1 !~* 'bar$' AND col2 > 10"

  # regexp_like function: regexp_like(<string>, <pattern>, <optional flags>)
  # returns true if <string> matches <pattern>, false otherwise
  #   <optional flags> can be one or more of the following:
  #   'c' (case-sensitive - default), 'i' (case-insensitive), 'm' (multiline)
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select * from data WHERE regexp_like(col1, '^foo') AND col2 > 10"
  # case-insensitive regexp_like
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select * from data WHERE regexp_like(col1, '^foo', 'i') AND col2 > 10"

  # regexp match using a literal pattern
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select idx,val from data WHERE val regexp '^foo'"

  # regexp match using patterns from another column
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select idx,val from data WHERE val regexp pattern_col"

  # use Parquet, JSONL and Arrow files in SQL queries
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select * from data join read_parquet('data2.parquet') as t2 ON data.c1 = t2.c1"
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select * from data join read_ndjson('data2.jsonl') as t2 on data.c1 = t2.c1"
   qsv sqlp data.csv "select * from data join read_ipc('data2.arrow') as t2 ON data.c1 = t2.c1"

  # you can also directly load CSVs using the Polars read_csv() SQL function. This is useful when
  # you want to bypass the regular CSV parser and use Polars' multithreaded, mem-mapped CSV parser
  # instead - making for dramatically faster queries at the cost of CSV parser configurability.
  # (i.e. limited to comma delimiter, no CSV comments, etc.)
   qsv sqlp small_dummy.csv "select * from read_csv('data.csv') order by col1 desc limit 100"

  Note that sqlp will automatically use this "fast path" optimization when there is only 
  one input CSV file, no CSV parsing options are used, its not a SQL script and the
  `--no-optimizations` flag is not set.

  # use stdin as input
   cat data.csv | qsv sqlp - 'select * from stdin'
   cat data.csv | qsv sqlp - data2.csv 'select * from stdin join data2 on stdin.col1 = data2.col1'

  # automatic snappy decompression/compression
   qsv sqlp data.csv.sz 'select * from data where col1 > 10' --output result.csv.sz

  # explain query plan
   qsv sqlp data.csv 'explain select * from data where col1 > 10 order by col2 desc limit 20'

Usage:
    qsv sqlp [options] <input>... <sql>
    qsv sqlp --help

sqlp arguments:
    input                  The CSV file/s to query. Use '-' for standard input.
                           If input is a directory, all files in the directory will be read as input.
                           If the input is a file with a '.infile-list' extension, the
                           file will be read as a list of files to use as input.
                           If the input are snappy compressed file(s), it will be
                           decompressed automatically.
                           Column headers are required. Use 'qsv rename _all_generic --no-headers'
                           to add generic column names (_col_N) to a CSV with no headers.
                           If you are using Polars SQL's table functions like read_csv() & read_parquet()
                           to read input files directly, you can use the special value 'SKIP_INPUT'
                           to skip input preprocessing.

    sql                    The SQL query/ies to run. Each input file will be available as a table
                           named after the file name (without the extension), or as "_t_N"
                           where N is the 1-based index.
                           If the query ends with ".sql", it will be read as a SQL script file,
                           with each SQL query separated by a semicolon. It will execute the queries
                           in order, and the result of the LAST query will be returned as the result.
                           SQL scripts support single-line comments starting with '--'.

sqlp options:
    --format <arg>            The output format to use. Valid values are:
                                csv      Comma-separated values
                                json     JSON
                                jsonl    JSONL (JSON Lines)
                                parquet  Apache Parquet
                                arrow    Apache Arrow IPC
                                avro     Apache Avro
                              [default: csv]

                              POLARS CSV INPUT PARSING OPTIONS:
    --try-parsedates          Automatically try to parse dates/datetimes and time.
                              If parsing fails, columns remain as strings.
                              Note that if dates are not well-formatted in your CSV,
                              that you may want to try to set `--ignore-errors` to relax
                              the CSV parsing of dates.
    --infer-len <arg>         The number of rows to scan when inferring the schema of the CSV.
                              Set to 0 to do a full table scan (warning: very slow).
                              [default: 1000]
    --low-memory              Use low memory mode when parsing CSVs. This will use less memory
                              but will be slower. It will also process LazyFrames in streaming mode.
                              Only use this when you get out of memory errors.
    --no-optimizations        Disable non-default query optimizations. This will make queries slower.
                              Use this when you get query errors or to force CSV parsing when there
                              is only one input file, no CSV parsing options are used and its not
                              a SQL script. Otherwise, the CSV will be read directly into a LazyFrame
                              using the fast path with the multithreaded, mem-mapped read_csv()
                              Polars SQL function which is much faster though not as configurable than
                              the regular CSV parser.
    --truncate-ragged-lines   Truncate ragged lines when parsing CSVs. If set, rows with more
                              columns than the header will be truncated. If not set, the query
                              will fail. Use this only when you get an error about ragged lines.
    --ignore-errors           Ignore errors when parsing CSVs. If set, rows with errors
                              will be skipped. If not set, the query will fail.
                              Only use this when debugging queries, as Polars does batched
                              parsing and will skip the entire batch where the error occurred.
    --rnull-values <arg>      The comma-delimited list of case-sensitive strings to consider as
                              null values when READING CSV files (e.g. NULL, NONE, <empty string>).
                              Use "<empty string>" to consider an empty string a null value.
                              [default: <empty string>]
    --decimal-comma           Use comma as the decimal separator when parsing CSVs.
                              Otherwise, use period as the decimal separator.
                              Note that you'll need to set --delimiter to an alternate delimiter
                              other than the default comma if you are using this option.

                              CSV OUTPUT FORMAT ONLY:
    --datetime-format <fmt>   The datetime format to use writing datetimes.
                              See https://docs.rs/chrono/latest/chrono/format/strftime/index.html
                              for the list of valid format specifiers.
    --date-format <fmt>       The date format to use writing dates.
    --time-format <fmt>       The time format to use writing times.
    --float-precision <arg>   The number of digits of precision to use when writing floats.
    --wnull-value <arg>       The string to use when WRITING null values.
                              [default: <empty string>]

                              ARROW/AVRO/PARQUET OUTPUT FORMATS ONLY:
    --compression <arg>       The compression codec to use when writing arrow or parquet files.
                                For Arrow, valid values are: zstd, lz4, uncompressed
                                For Avro, valid values are: deflate, snappy, uncompressed (default)
                                For Parquet, valid values are: zstd, lz4raw, gzip, snappy, uncompressed
                              [default: zstd]

                              PARQUET OUTPUT FORMAT ONLY:
    --compress-level <arg>    The compression level to use when using zstd or gzip compression.
                              When using zstd, valid values are -7 to 22, with -7 being the
                              lowest compression level and 22 being the highest compression level.
                              When using gzip, valid values are 1-9, with 1 being the lowest
                              compression level and 9 being the highest compression level.
                              Higher compression levels are slower.
                              The zstd default is 3, and the gzip default is 6.
    --statistics              Compute column statistics when writing parquet files.
    
Common options:
    -h, --help             Display this message
    -o, --output <file>    Write output to <file> instead of stdout.
    -d, --delimiter <arg>  The field delimiter for reading and writing CSV data.
                           Must be a single character. [default: ,]
    -Q, --quiet            Do not return result shape to stderr.
