Also add a "fromIndex" argument to the strpos expression function. There
are some -1 and +1 adjustment terms due to the fact that the strpos
expression behaves like Java indexOf (0-indexed), but the POSITION SQL
function is 1-indexed.

This PR accumulates many refactorings and small improvements that I did while preparing the next change set of https://github.com/druid-io/druid/projects/2. I finally decided to make them a separate PR to minimize the volume of the main PR.
Some of the changes:
- Renamed confusing "Generic Column" term to "Numeric Column" (what it actually implies) in many class names.
- Generified `ComplexMetricExtractor`
* SQL: Update to Calcite 1.17.0.
Other than keeping things fresh, another motivation is that
this fixes CALCITE-1436 (AggregateNode NPE for aggregators other
than SUM/COUNT), which affects aggregate functions on our system
tables.
Also sets shouldConvertRaggedUnionTypesToVarying = true, a new
type system parameter that prefers VARCHAR over CHAR. This is
better for Druid, because we don't really have support for a
true CHAR type.
* Remove unused import.
The "Duplicate field name" check on inputRowSignature is too strict:
it is actually fine for a row signature to have the same field name
twice. It happens when the same expression is selected twice, and
both selections map to the same Druid object (dimension, aggregator,
etc).
I did not succeed in writing a test that triggers this, but I did see
it occur in production for a complex query with hundreds of aggregators.
* Rename io.druid to org.apache.druid.
* Fix META-INF files and remove some benchmark results.
* MonitorsConfig update for metrics package migration.
* Reorder some dimensions in inner queries for some reason.
* Fix protobuf tests.
* add subtotalsSpec attribute to groupBy query
* dont sent subtotalsSpec to downstream nodes from broker and other updates
* address review comment
* fix checkstyle issues after merge to master
* add docs for subtotalsSpec feature
* address doc review comments
The old code assumes that post-aggregator prefixes are one character
long followed by numbers. This isn't always true (we may pad with
underscores to avoid conflicts). Instead, the new code uses a different
base prefix for sort-project postaggregators ("s" instead of "p") and
uses the usual Calcites.findUnusedPrefix function to avoid conflicts.
* SQL: Support more result formats, add columns header.
- Add result formats for line-based JSON and CSV.
- Add X-Druid-Sql-Columns header with a list of all columns that
the response will contain.
- Add more comprehensive documentation on what callers should expect
when making Druid SQL queries.
* Fix some tests.

False failures on Travis due to spurious timeout (in turn due to noisy

Druid stores timestamps down to the millisecond, so we should use
precision = 3. Setting this wrong sometimes caused milliseconds
to be ignored in timestamp literals.
Fixes#5337.
Fixes test failures reported in -
https://github.com/druid-io/druid/issues/4909
Issue is that If some test skips setting up Calcite system properties
with proper encoding and loads calcite classes that use that property,
All subsequent tests in the same JVM fails.
To reproduce the issue - ExpressionsTest and CalciteQueryTest from IDE
in this order.
A better fix would be to not use System Properties in calcite, This
will work for now.
All new Calcite Unit tests that are added need to inherit
CalciteTestBase.

* timewarp and timezones
changes:
* `TimewarpOperator` will now compensate for daylight savings time shifts between date translation ranges for queries using a `PeriodGranularity` with a timezone defined
* introduces a new abstract query type `TimeBucketedQuery` for all queries which have a `Granularity` (100% not attached to this name). `GroupByQuery`, `SearchQuery`, `SelectQuery`, `TimeseriesQuery`, and `TopNQuery` all extend `TimeBucke
tedQuery`, cutting down on some duplicate code and providing a mechanism for `TimewarpOperator` (and anything else) that needs to be aware of granularity
* move precondition check to TimeBucketedQuery, add Granularities.nullToAll, add getTimezone to TimeBucketQuery
* formatting
* more formatting
* unused import
* changes:
* add 'getGranularity' and 'getTimezone' to 'Query' interface
* merge 'TimeBucketedQuery' into 'BaseQuery'
* fixup tests from resulting serialization changes
* dedupe
* fix after merge
* suppress warning
* Deduplicate DataSegments contents (loadSpec's keys, dimensions and metrics lists as a whole) more aggressively; use ArrayMap instead of default LinkedHashMap for DataSegment.loadSpec, because they have only 3 entries on average; prune DataSegment.loadSpec on brokers
* Fix DataSegmentTest
* Refinements
* Try to fix
* Fix the second DataSegmentTest
* Nullability
* Fix tests
* Fix tests, unify to use TestHelper.getJsonMapper()
* Revert TestUtil as ServerTestHelper, fix tests

* Fix indexing tests
* Fix s3 tests
* Try to fix tests, remove lazy caching of ObjectMapper in TestHelper, rename TestHelper.getJsonMapper() to makeJsonMapper()
* Fix HDFS tests
* Fix HdfsDataSegmentPusherTest
* Capitalize constant names
* SQL: Improve translation of time floor expressions.
The main change is to TimeFloorOperatorConversion.applyTimestampFloor.
- Prefer timestamp_floor expressions to timeFormat extractionFns, to
avoid turning things into strings when it isn't necessary.
- Collapse CAST(FLOOR(X TO Y) AS DATE) to FLOOR(X TO Y) if appropriate.
* Fix tests.
* ExpressionSelectors: Add caching selectors.
- SingleLongInputCaching selector for expressions on the __time column,
using a similar optimization to SingleScanTimeDimSelector
- SingleStringInputDimensionSelector for expressions on string columns
that return strings, using a similar optimization to ExtractionFn
based DimensionSelectors.
- SingleStringInputCaching selector for expressions on string columns
that return primitives.
Also, in the SQL planner, prefer expressions for time operations
rather than extractionFns.
* Code review comments.
i.e., aggregations like COUNT(DISTINCT CASE WHEN x THEN y END). This
patch also changes complex columns to report as nullable, which
is required for them to type-check properly when used in these kinds
of filtered aggregations.
* maxQueryTimeout property in runtime properties.
* extra line
* move withTimeoutAndMaxScatterGatherBytes method to QueryLifeCycle.
* Fix initialize method.
* remove unused import.
* doc update.
* some more details in doc about query failure..
* minor fix.
* decorating QueryRunner to set and verify context. Added by servers.
* remove whitespace.
* SQL: Improved behavior when implicitly casting strings to date/time literals.
- Handle all flavors of ISO8601 and SQL literals.
- Throw errors on other literals instead of silently transforming them to 0.
* Respect timeZone when format is null.
* Fix havingSpec on complex aggregators.
- Uses the technique from #4883 on DimFilterHavingSpec too.
- Also uses Transformers from #4890, necessitating a move of that and other
related classes from druid-server to druid-processing. They probably make
more sense there anyway.
- Adds a SQL query test.
Fixes#4957.
* Remove unused import.
* Changes for lookup synchronization
* Refactor of Lookup classes
* Minor refactors and doc update
* Change coordinator instance to be retrieved by DruidLeaderClient

* Move ListeningScheduledExecutorService to ExecutorCompletionService
* Move exception to outer block
* Remove check to see future is done
* Remove unnecessary assignment
* Add logging
* SQL: Upgrade to Calcite 1.14.0, some refactoring of internals.
This brings benefits:
- Ability to do GROUP BY and ORDER BY with ordinals.
- Ability to support IN filters beyond 19 elements (fixes#4203).
Some refactoring of druid-sql internals:
- Builtin aggregators and operators are implemented as SqlAggregators
and SqlOperatorConversions rather being special cases. This simplifies
the Expressions and GroupByRules code, which were becoming complex.
- SqlAggregator implementations are no longer responsible for filtering.
Added new functions:
- Expressions: strpos.
- SQL: TRUNCATE, TRUNC, LENGTH, CHAR_LENGTH, STRLEN, STRPOS, SUBSTR,
and DATE_TRUNC.
* Add missing @Override annotation.
* Adjustments for forbidden APIs.
* Adjustments for forbidden APIs.
* Disable GROUP BY alias.
* Doc reword.
* SQL: Delay query translation until the end of planning.
This fixes a bug in which input rels to nested queries could get swapped
out by the optimizer, leading to incorrect nested query planning.
This also, I hope, makes the query translation code easier to understand. At
least for me, the PartialDruidQuery -> DruidQuery -> Query chain is easier
to understand than the previous-existing rule spaghetti.
* Make test more consistent.
* Fix test.
* remove ServerConfig from DruidNode as all information needs to be present in DruidNode serialized form
* sanitize output of /druid/coordinator/v1/cluster endpoint
* Move scan-query from a contrib extension into core.
Based on a proposal at: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/druid-development/ME_OatUDnbk/discussion
This patch also adds support for virtual columns to the Scan query,
and updates Druid SQL to use Scan instead of Select.
This patch also makes some behavioral changes to handling of the __time
column. In particular, it is now is returned as "__time" rather than
"timestamp"; it is no longer included if you do not specifically ask for
it in your "columns"; and it is returned as a long rather than a string.
Users can revert time handling to the legacy extension behavior by
setting "legacy" : true in their queries, or setting the property
druid.query.scan.legacy = true. This is meant to provide a migration
path for users that were formerly using the contrib extension.
* Adjustments from review.
* Add back Select query.
* Adjust SQL docs.
* Restore SelectQuery link.
* SQL: Full TRIM support.
- Support trimming arbitrary characters
- Support BOTH, LEADING, and TRAILING
* Remove unused import.
* Fix tests, add RTRIM / LTRIM.
* Remove unused imports.
* BTRIM and docs.
* Replace for with foreach.
* SQL: EXPLAIN improvements.
- Include query JSON in explain output.
- Fix a bug where semi-joins and nested groupBys were not fully explained.
- Fix a bug where limits were not included in "select" query explanations.
* Fix compile error.
* Fix compile error.
* Fix tests.
* Add "round" option to cardinality and hyperUnique aggregators.
Also turn it on by default in SQL, to make math on distinct counts
work more as expected.
* Fix some compile errors.
* Fix test.
* Formatting.
If DruidSchema started too long after the BrokerServerView, its
initialization callback would never get called, and it would sit
there not knowing about any tables.
This moves the registration of the callback into the constructor,
where it belongs.
* Improved SQL support for floats and doubles.
- Use Druid FLOAT for SQL FLOAT, and Druid DOUBLE for SQL DOUBLE, REAL,
and DECIMAL.
- Use float* aggregators when appropriate.
- Add tests involving both float and double columns.
- Adjust documentation accordingly.
* CR comments.
* Fix braces.
* Add metrics to the native queries underpinning SQL.
This is done by factoring out the metrics and request log emitting
code from QueryResource into a new QueryLifecycle class. That class
is used by both QueryResource and the SQL DruidSchema and QueryMaker.
Also fixes a couple of bugs in QueryResource:
- RequestLogLine start time was set to `TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS.toMillis(startNs)`,
which is incorrect since absolute nanos cannot be converted to millis.
- DruidMetrics.makeRequestMetrics was called with null `query` on
unparseable queries, which led to spurious "Unable to log query"
errors.
Partial fix for #4047.
* Code style
* Remove unused imports.
* Fix tests.
* Remove unused import.
* Fixes and improvements to SQL metadata caching.
Also adds support for MultipleSpecificSegmentSpec to CachingClusteredClient.
SQL changes:
- Cache metadata on a per-segment level, in addition to per-dataSource, so
we don't need to re-query all segments whenever a single new one appears.
This should lower the load placed on the cluster by metadata queries.
- Fix race condition in DruidSchema that can cause us to miss metadata. It was
possible to notice new segments, then issue a query, and have that query
not actually hit those segments, and not notice that it didn't hit those segments.
Then, the metadata from those segments would be ignored.
- Fix assumption in DruidSchema that all segments are immutable. Now, mutable
segments are periodically re-queried.
- Fix inappropriate re-use of SchemaPlus. Now we create one for each planning
cycle, rather than sharing one. It caches table objects, which we want to
avoid, since it can cause stale metadata. We do the caching in DruidSchema
so we don't need the SchemaPlus caching.
Server changes:
- Add a TimelineCallback to TimelineServerView, for callers that want to get updates
when the timeline has been modified.
- Change CachingClusteredClient from a QueryRunner to a QuerySegmentWalker. This
allows it to accept queries that are segment-descriptor-based rather than
intervals-based. In particular it will now support MultipleSpecificSegmentSpec.
* Fix DruidSchema, and unused imports.
* Remove unused import.
* Fix SqlBenchmark.
* SQL + Expressions = Best friends forever.
- Use expressions as a projection layer for anything that can't be
expressed using traditional Druid extractionFns. Sometimes they're
embedded directly (like "expression" filters, builtin aggregators,
or "expression" post-aggregators). Sometimes they're referenced
through virtual columns (like dimensionSpecs, which can't innately
reference functions of more than one column without the virtual
column layer).
- Add many new functions and operators, taking advantage of the
expression capability (see the querying/sql.md doc).
- Improve consistency of constant reduction and of casting by
using Druid expressions for this instead of Calcite's RexExecutor.
* Fix casting bug, and other code review comments.
* Fix docs.
* Avoid usages of Default system Locale and printing to System.out or System.err in production code
* Fix Charset in DruidKerberosUtil
* Remove redundant string format in GenericIndexed
* Rename StringUtils.safeFormat() to unimportantSafeFormat(); add StringUtils.format() which fails as well as String.format()
* Fix testSafeFormat()
* More fixes of redundant StringUtils.format() inside ISE
* Rename unimportantSafeFormat() to nonStrictFormat()
* ExpressionPostAggregator: Automatically finalize inputs.
Raw HyperLogLogCollectors and such aren't very useful. When writing
expressions like `x / y` users will expect `x` and `y` to be finalized.
* Fix un-merge.
* Code review comments.
* Remove unnecessary ImmutableMap.copyOf.
* Adding a flag to indicate when ObjectCachingColumnSelectorFactory need not be threadsafe.
* - Use of computeIfAbsent over putIfAbsent
- Replace Maps.newXXXMap() with normal instantiation
- Documentations on when is thread-safe required.
- Use Builders for On/OffheapIncrementalIndex
* - Optimization on computeIfAbsent
- Constant EMPTY DimensionsSpec
- Improvement on IncrementalIndexSchema.Builder
- Remove setting of default values
- Use var args for metrics
- Correction on On/OffheapIncrementalIndex Builders
- Combine On/OffheapIncrementalIndex Builders
* - Removing unused imports.
* - Helper method for testing with IncrementalIndex.Builder
* - Correction on javadoc.
* Style fix
* Expressions: Add ExprMacros, which have the same syntax as functions, but
can convert themselves to any kind of Expr at parse-time.
ExprMacroTable is an extension point for adding new ExprMacros. Anything
that might need to parse expressions needs an ExprMacroTable, which can
be injected through Guice.
* Address code review comments.
* SQL: More forgiving Avatica server.
- Automatically close statements that are fully iterated or that have
errors, to prevent dangling statements from causing clients to hit
open statement limits.
- Empower client auto-reconnects by throwing NoSuchConnectionException
when appropriate.
- Try to close empty connections when we hit the open connection limit,
rather than failing the newly opened connection. Client
auto-reconnections mean this shouldn't cause problems in practice.
- Improve concurrency of the server by making "connections" a
concurrent map.
- Lower default connection timeout to PT5M from PT30M.
