description

ARRAY<T>

An array of T-type items, it cannot be used as a key column. Now ARRAY can only used in Duplicate Model Tables.

After version 2.0, it supports the use of non-key columns in Unique model tables.

T-type could be any of:

BOOLEAN, TINYINT, SMALLINT, INT, BIGINT, LARGEINT, FLOAT, DOUBLE, DECIMAL, DATE,
DATEV2, DATETIME, DATETIMEV2, CHAR, VARCHAR, STRING

example

Create table example:

mysql> CREATE TABLE `array_test` (
  `id` int(11) NULL COMMENT "",
  `c_array` ARRAY<int(11)> NULL COMMENT ""
) ENGINE=OLAP
DUPLICATE KEY(`id`)
COMMENT "OLAP"
DISTRIBUTED BY HASH(`id`) BUCKETS 1
PROPERTIES (
"replication_allocation" = "tag.location.default: 1",
"in_memory" = "false",
"storage_format" = "V2"
);

Insert data example:

mysql> INSERT INTO `array_test` VALUES (1, [1,2,3,4,5]);
mysql> INSERT INTO `array_test` VALUES (2, [6,7,8]), (3, []), (4, null);

Select data example:

mysql> SELECT * FROM `array_test`;
