A data source is the Druid equivalent of a database table. However, a query can also masquerade as a data source, providing subquery-like functionality. Query data sources are currently only supported by [GroupBy](GroupByQuery.html) queries.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Table Data Source
|
||||||
|
The table data source the most common type. It's represented by a string, or by the full structure:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"type": "table",
|
||||||
|
"name": <string_value>
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Query Data Source
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"type": "query",
|
||||||
|
"query": {
|
||||||
|
"type": "groupBy",
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
