Apache Druid (incubating) Expressions
This feature is still experimental. It has not been optimized for performance yet, and its implementation is known to
have significant inefficiencies.
This expression language supports the following operators (listed in decreasing order of precedence).
| Operators | Description |
|---|---|
| !, - | Unary NOT and Minus |
| ^ | Binary power op |
| *, /, % | Binary multiplicative |
| +, - | Binary additive |
| <, <=, >, >=, ==, != | Binary Comparison |
| &&, | | Binary Logical AND, OR |
Long, double, and string data types are supported. If a number contains a dot, it is interpreted as a double, otherwise it is interpreted as a long. That means, always add a '.' to your number if you want it interpreted as a double value. String literals should be quoted by single quotation marks.
Additionally, the expression language supports long, double, and string arrays. Array literals are created by wrapping square brackets around a list of scalar literals values delimited by a comma or space character. All values in an array literal must be the same type.
Expressions can contain variables. Variable names may contain letters, digits, '_' and '$'. Variable names must not begin with a digit. To escape other special characters, you can quote it with double quotation marks.
For logical operators, a number is true if and only if it is positive (0 or negative value means false). For string type, it's the evaluation result of 'Boolean.valueOf(string)'.
Multi-value string dimensions are supported and may be treated as either
scalar or array typed values. When treated as a scalar type, an expression will automatically be transformed to apply
the scalar operation across all values of the multi-valued type, to mimic Druid's native behavior. Values that result in
arrays will be coerced back into the native Druid string type for aggregation. Druid aggregations on multi-value string
dimensions on the individual values, not the 'array', behaving similar to the UNNEST operator available in many SQL
dialects. However, by using the array_to_string function, aggregations may be done on a stringified version of the
complete array, allowing the complete row to be preserved. Using string_to_array in an expression post-aggregator,
allows transforming the stringified dimension back into the true native array type.
The following built-in functions are available.
General functions
| name | description |
|---|---|
| cast | cast(expr,'LONG' or 'DOUBLE' or 'STRING' or 'LONG_ARRAY', or 'DOUBLE_ARRAY' or 'STRING_ARRAY') returns expr with specified type. exception can be thrown. Scalar types may be cast to array types and will take the form of a single element list (null will still be null). |
| if | if(predicate,then,else) returns 'then' if 'predicate' evaluates to a positive number, otherwise it returns 'else' |
| nvl | nvl(expr,expr-for-null) returns 'expr-for-null' if 'expr' is null (or empty string for string type) |
| like | like(expr, pattern[, escape]) is equivalent to SQL expr LIKE pattern |
| case_searched | case_searched(expr1, result1, [[expr2, result2, ...], else-result]) |
| case_simple | case_simple(expr, value1, result1, [[value2, result2, ...], else-result]) |
| bloom_filter_test | bloom_filter_test(expr, filter) tests the value of 'expr' against 'filter', a bloom filter serialized as a base64 string. See bloom filter extension documentation for additional details. |

| parse_long | parse_long(string[, radix]) parses a string as a long with the given radix, or 10 (decimal) if a radix is not provided. |
| regexp_extract | regexp_extract(expr, pattern[, index]) applies a regular expression pattern and extracts a capture group index, or null if there is no match. If index is unspecified or zero, returns the substring that matched the pattern. |
| replace | replace(expr, pattern, replacement) replaces pattern with replacement |
| substring | substring(expr, index, length) behaves like java.lang.String's substring |
| right | right(expr, length) returns the rightmost length characters from a string |

The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like "America/Los_Angeles" or offset like "-08:00", and will be used as the time zone for strings that do not include a time zone offset. Pattern and time zone must be literals. Strings that cannot be parsed as timestamps will be returned as nulls. |

IP Address Functions
For the IPv4 address functions, the address argument can either be an IPv4 dotted-decimal string
(e.g., "192.168.0.1") or an IP address represented as a long (e.g., 3232235521). The subnet
argument should be a string formatted as an IPv4 address subnet in CIDR notation (e.g.,
"192.168.0.0/16").
| function | description |
|---|---|
| ipv4_match(address, subnet) | Returns 1 if the address belongs to the subnet literal, else 0. If address is not a valid IPv4 address, then 0 is returned. This function is more efficient if address is a long instead of a string. |
| ipv4_parse(address) | Parses address into an IPv4 address stored as a long. If address is a long that is a valid IPv4 address, then it is passed through. Returns null if address cannot be represented as an IPv4 address. |
| ipv4_stringify(address) | Converts address into an IPv4 address dotted-decimal string. If address is a string that is a valid IPv4 address, then it is passed through. Returns null if address cannot be represented as an IPv4 address. |
