clickhouse-migrations 0.8.1

Simple file-based migrations for clickhouse

Clickhouse Migrations

Python library for creating and applying migrations in ClickHouse database.

Development and Maintenance of large-scale db systems many times requires constant changes to the actual DB system. Holding off the scripts to migrate these will be painful.

Features:

• Supports multi statements - more than one query per migration file.
• Allow running migrations out-of-box
• Simple file migrations format: {VERSION}_{name}.sql
• Supports Cluster deployments, makes sure that migrations state is consistent on all cluster nodes

Known alternatives

This package originally forked from clickhouse-migrator.

Package	Differences
clickhouse-migrator	Doesn't support multistatement in a single file , to heavy because of pandas, looks like abandoned
django-clickhouse	Need django
clickhouse-migrate	Doesn't support multistatement

Installation

You can install from pypi using pip install clickhouse-migrations.

Usage

In command line

clickhouse-migrations --db-host localhost \
    --db-user default \
    --db-password secret \
    --db-name test \
    --migrations-dir ./migrations

In code

from clickhouse_migrations.clickhouse_cluster import ClickhouseCluster

cluster = ClickhouseCluster(db_host, db_user, db_password)
cluster.migrate(db_name, migrations_home, cluster_name=None,create_db_if_no_exists=True, multi_statement=True)

Parameter	Description	Default
db_host	Clickhouse database hostname	localhost
db_port	Clickhouse database port	9000
db_user	Clickhouse user	default
db_password	Clichouse password	default
db_name	Clickhouse database name	None
migration_path	Path to list of migration files	<project_root>
migrations	Explicit list of migrations to apply	[]
cluster_name	Name of Clickhouse topology cluster from <remote_servers>	None
create_db_if_no_exists	If the db_name is not present, enabling this will create the db	True
multi_statement	Allow multiple statements in migration files	True
secure	Use secure connection	False
fake	Marks the migrations as applied but without actually running the SQL to change your database schema	False

Notes

The Clickhouse driver does not natively support executing multipe statements in a single query. To allow for multiple statements in a single migration, you can use the multi_statement param. There are two important caveats:

• This mode splits the migration text into separately-executed statements by a semi-colon ;. Thus cannot be used when a statement in the migration contains a string with a semi-colon.
• The queries are not executed in any sort of transaction/batch, meaning you are responsible for fixing partial migrations.
