In order to follow REST a bit more carefully, all write operations
should go through a POST in the future. We still allow read operations
through either GET or POST (similar to the Graphite /render endpoint),
but write operations will trigger a returned warning as part of the JSON
response and will eventually return an error.
Also updates the Golang client libraries to always use POST instead of
GET.
Fixes#6290.
The interrupt iterator currently introduces a non-trivial amount of
overhead to queries by checking for interrupts every 256 points.
This commit adjusts that check to every 5000 points.
There are also several places where nested field access has been
adjusted to minimize field lookups.
This commit removes support for `SHOW SERVERS` and `DROP SERVER`
from the `influxql` package. It also removes extraneous cluster
testing code from `cmd/influxd/run`.
Fixes#6465
The derivative function had an arbitrary limitation that would cause it
to set the value to zero if the previous value was after the next value.
This caused all `ORDER BY desc` queries with `derivative()` to always
return zero values.
Fixes#4675.
Sanitizing is now done through pattern matching rather than parsing the
query and replacing the password in the query. This prevents
accidentally redacting the wrong part of a query and revealing what the
password is through association.
Fixes#3883.
This removes the previous restrictions that kept derivative as only
capable of being used in a single field and only at the top level.
This lets users determine how they want to use derivative more freely
and opens up the possibility of also using math between derivatives.
This may open up some problems when it comes to math between derivatives
as timestamps may not match correctly. That is likely a problem related
to any binary math to begin with though and can probably be ignored by
the derivatives. I'm also not sure it makes sense to perform any math
between a derivative and a difference or perform math between a
derivative and a mean.
Fixes#6118.
This has various benefits:
- Users embedding InfluxDB within other Go programs can specify a different logger / prefix easily.
- More consistent with code used elsewhere in InfluxDB (e.g. services, other `run.Server.*` fields, etc).
- This is also more efficient, because it means `executeQuery` no longer allocates a single `*log.Logger` each time it is called.
The series keys within a tag set were previously not sorted which would
cause the output to be non-deterministic. This sorts the output series
by their keys so it has a consistent output especially when using
limits.
Fixes#3166.
This also switches the remaining iterators to be lazy so they can return
errors properly. They needed to be converted to lazy initialization
anyway, which has the side effect of making it much easier for us to
propagate the underlying error during initialization.
Updated the Emitter to return errors when it cannot read properly from
the iterators.
The optional sections of the command consumed the semicolon token and
didn't put it back for the outer loop. The code shouldn't explicitly
check for a semicolon or EOF anyway, so these checks were removed and
the token gets unscanned if it doesn't match the optional token that the
parser is looking for.
Fixes#6398.
For aggregate queries, derivatives will now alter the start time to one
interval behind and will use that interval to find the derivative of the
first point instead of giving no value for that interval. Null values
will still be discarded so if the interval before the one you are
querying is null, then it will be discarded like if it were in the
middle of the query. You can use `fill(0)` to fill in these values.
This does not apply to raw queries yet.
Also modified the derivative and difference aggregates to use the stream
iterator instead of the reduce slice iterator for space efficiency.
Fixes#3247. Contributes to #5943.
The deprecated message is now attached to a new attribute returned with
the results. This message can then be read by clients to warn a user
about upcoming changes to the query engine.
The `influx` client has already been modified to read this message and
print it out for every format except CSV.
The first warning message is a deprecated message about removing `IF NOT
EXISTS` from `CREATE DATABASE`.
The message will also be printed to the server log.
Fixes#5707.
This commit changes the channel iterators to use a double buffer
to reduce allocations. The caller of `Iterator.Next()` must copy
out the point before calling `Next()` again.
The `percentile()` call previously did not validate that the first
argument was a variable reference and that would let an invalid query
slip by that would panic the query engine.
Added checking for this case and also included test cases for the other
calls that require a variable reference as the first argument.
Fixes#6379.
Change distinct so it uses a custom reducer that keeps internal state
instead of requiring all of the points to be kept as a slice in memory.
Fixes#6261.
This commit makes a number of performance improvements to
reduce allocations during query execution. Several objects
and buffers are now reused across the components to avoid
allocations.
Previously a simple `count(value)` query across 1M points
would require 26,000+ allocations. After the changes in
this commit that number has been reduced to 88.
If a point had no tags at all and was asked for the subset of tags with
at least one key, it would return a new set of tags that was completely
empty. In contrast, if the point had any tags at all, it would return a
set of tags with the tag value being an empty string. This lead to
a point with no tags being treated differently than a point with at
least one tag.
Fixing this so the tag value will always be an empty string for
consistency. A missing tag should always be empty.
The following query was fixed previously:
SELECT 'value' FROM cpu
This ended up hitting the `buildExprIterator()` code path and was
handled properly. But this query:
SELECT 'value', value FROM cpu
This took a different code path that would trigger a panic because it
triggered a panic instead of an error condition. This code path has now
been modified to trigger an error instead of a panic.
Fixes#6248.
Fixes#6211.
In Go-land packages with the same name, e.g., internal, do not clash
with each other when they're in different parts of the project. However
with protobufs definitions will clash if they share the same package
name.
This commit renames the influxql protobuf package to `influxql` to
avoid a clash with a message definition in another protobuf package
called internal. Go package aliases allow us to continue to refer to the
internal package as `internal` rather than `influxql`.
The QueryExecutor had a lot of dead code made obsolete by the query
engine refactor that has now been removed. The TSDBStore interface has
also been cleaned up so we can have multiple implementations of this
(such as a local and remote version).
A StatementExecutor interface has been created for adding custom
functionality to the QueryExecutor that may not be available in the open
source version. The QueryExecutor delegate all statement execution to
the StatementExecutor and the QueryExecutor will only keep track of
housekeeping. Implementing additional queries is as simple as wrapping
the cluster.StatementExecutor struct or replacing it with something
completely different.
The PointsWriter in the QueryExecutor has been changed to a simple
interface that implements the one method needed by the query executor.
This is to allow different PointsWriter implementations to be used by
the QueryExecutor. It has also been moved into the StatementExecutor
instead.
The TSDBStore interface has now been modified to contain the code for
creating an IteratorCreator. This is so the underlying TSDBStore can
implement different ways of accessing the underlying shards rather than
always having to access each shard individually (such as batch
requests).
Remove the show servers handling. This isn't a valid command in the open
source version of InfluxDB anymore.
The QueryManager interface is now built into QueryExecutor and is no
longer necessary. The StatementExecutor and QueryExecutor split allows
task management to much more easily be built into QueryExecutor rather
than as a separate struct.
A bigger refactor of these functions is needed to support #3290, but
this will work for the more common case that someone uses double quotes
instead of single quotes when surrounding a time literal.
Fixes#3932.
This commit sets the `MergeIterator.init` flag after initialization.
Previously this would generate a new heap on every call to `Next()`
which caused some aggregate queries to slow by ~10,000%.
