+<p>This document is intended as a reference guide to the full syntax and semantics of the Asterix Query Language (AQL), the language for talking to AsterixDB. This guide covers both the data manipulation language (DML) aspects of AQL, including its support for queries and data modification, as well as its data definition language (DDL) aspects.  New AsterixDB users are encouraged to read and work through the (friendlier) guide &#x201c;AsterixDB 101: An ADM and AQL Primer&#x201d; before attempting to make use of this document. In addition, readers are advised to read and understand the Asterix Data Model (ADM) reference guide since a basic understanding of ADM concepts is a prerequisite to understanding AQL. In what follows, we detail the features of the AQL language in a grammar-guided manner: We list and briefly explain each of the productions in the AQL grammar, offering examples for clarity in cases where doing so seems needed or helpful.</p></div>

+<p>An AQL query can be any legal AQL expression.</p>
+
+<div class="source">
+<div class="source">
+<pre>Expression ::= ( OperatorExpr | IfThenElse | FLWOR | QuantifiedExpression )
+</pre></div></div>
+<p>AQL is a fully composable expression language. Each AQL expression returns zero or more Asterix Data Model (ADM) instances. There are four major kinds of expressions in AQL. At the topmost level, an AQL expression can be an OperatorExpr (similar to a mathematical expression), an IfThenElse (to choose between two alternative values), a FLWOR expression (the heart of AQL, pronounced &#x201c;flower expression&#x201d;), or a QuantifiedExpression (which yields a boolean value). Each will be detailed as we explore the full AQL grammar.</p>

+              | ListConstructor
+              | ObjectConstructor
+</pre></div></div>
+<p>The most basic building block for any AQL expression is the PrimaryExpr. This can be a simple literal (constant) value, a reference to a query variable that is in scope, a parenthesized expression, a function call, an expression accessing the ADM contents of a dataset, a newly constructed list of ADM instances, or a newly constructed ADM object.</p>

+FloatLiteral   ::= &lt;DIGITS&gt; ( &quot;f&quot; | &quot;F&quot; )
+                 | &lt;DIGITS&gt; ( &quot;.&quot; &lt;DIGITS&gt; ( &quot;f&quot; | &quot;F&quot; ) )?

+DoubleLiteral  ::= &lt;DIGITS&gt;
+                 | &lt;DIGITS&gt; ( &quot;.&quot; &lt;DIGITS&gt; )?
+                 | &quot;.&quot; &lt;DIGITS&gt;
+</pre></div></div>
+<p>Literals (constants) in AQL can be strings, integers, floating point values, double values, boolean constants, or the constant value null. The null value in AQL has &#x201c;unknown&#x201d; or &#x201c;missing&#x201d; value semantics, similar to (though not identical to) nulls in the relational query language SQL.</p>
+<p>The following are some simple examples of AQL literals. Since AQL is an expression language, each example is also a complete, legal AQL query (!).</p>

+&lt;LETTER&gt;    ::= [&quot;A&quot; - &quot;Z&quot;, &quot;a&quot; - &quot;z&quot;]
+</pre></div></div>
+<p>A variable in AQL can be bound to any legal ADM value. A variable reference refers to the value to which an in-scope variable is bound. (E.g., a variable binding may originate from one of the for or let clauses of a FLWOR expression or from an input parameter in the context of an AQL function body.)</p>

+<p>Since AQL is an expression language, the following example expression is actually also a complete, legal AQL query whose result is the value 2.

+<p>Functions are included in AQL, like most languages, as a way to package useful functionality or to componentize complicated or reusable AQL computations. A function call is a legal AQL query expression that represents the ADM value resulting from the evaluation of its body expression with the given parameter bindings; the parameter value bindings can themselves be any AQL expressions.</p>
+<p>The following example is a (built-in) function call expression whose value is 8.</p>

+<p>Querying Big Data is the main point of AsterixDB and AQL. Data in AsterixDB reside in datasets (collections of ADM objects), each of which in turn resides in some namespace known as a dataverse (data universe). Data access in a query expression is accomplished via a DatasetAccessExpression. Dataset access expressions are most commonly used in FLWOR expressions, where variables are bound to their contents.</p>
+<p>Note that the Identifier that identifies a dataset (or any other Identifier in AQL) can also be a StringLiteral. This is especially useful to avoid conficts with AQL keywords (e.g. &#x201c;dataset&#x201d;, &#x201c;null&#x201d;, or &#x201c;type&#x201d;).</p>
+<p>The following are three examples of legal dataset access expressions. The first one accesses a dataset called Customers in the dataverse called SalesDV. The second one accesses the Customers dataverse in whatever the current dataverse is. The third one does the same thing as the second but uses a slightly older AQL syntax.</p>

+<p>A major feature of AQL is its ability to construct new ADM data instances. This is accomplished using its constructors for each of the major ADM complex object structures, namely lists (ordered or unordered) and objects. Ordered lists are like JSON arrays, while unordered lists have bag (multiset) semantics. Objects are built from attributes that are field-name/field-value pairs, again like JSON. (See the AsterixDB Data Model document for more details on each.)</p>
+<p>The following examples illustrate how to construct a new ordered list with 3 items, a new unordered list with 4 items, and a new object with 2 fields, respectively. List elements can be homogeneous (as in the first example), which is the common case, or they may be heterogeneous (as in the second example). The data values and field name values used to construct lists and objects in constructors are all simply AQL expressions. Thus the list elements, field names, and field values used in constructors can be simple literals (as in these three examples) or they can come from query variable references or even arbitrarily complex AQL expressions.</p>

+<p>Components of complex types in ADM are accessed via path expressions. Path access can be applied to the result of an AQL expression that yields an instance of such a type, e.g., a object or list instance. For objects, path access is based on field names. For ordered lists, path access is based on (zero-based) array-style indexing. AQL also supports an &#x201c;I&#x2019;m feeling lucky&#x201d; style index accessor, [?], for selecting an arbitrary element from an ordered list. Attempts to access non-existent fields or list elements produce a null (i.e., missing information) result as opposed to signaling a runtime error.</p>

+<p>The heart of AQL is the FLWOR (for-let-where-orderby-return) expression. The roots of this expression were borrowed from the expression of the same name in XQuery. A FLWOR expression starts with one or more clauses that establish variable bindings. A <tt>for</tt> clause binds a variable incrementally to each element of its associated expression; it includes an optional positional variable for counting/numbering the bindings. By default no ordering is implied or assumed by a <tt>for</tt> clause. A <tt>let</tt> clause binds a variable to the collection of elements computed by its associated expression.</p>
+<p>Following the initial <tt>for</tt> or <tt>let</tt> clause(s), a FLWOR expression may contain an arbitrary sequence of other clauses. The <tt>where</tt> clause in a FLWOR expression filters the preceding bindings via a boolean expression, much like a <tt>where</tt> clause does in a SQL query. The <tt>order by</tt> clause in a FLWOR expression induces an ordering on the data. The <tt>group by</tt> clause, discussed further below, forms groups based on its group by expressions, optionally naming the expressions&#x2019; values (which together form the grouping key for the expression). The <tt>with</tt> subclause of a <tt>group by</tt> clause specifies the variable(s) whose values should be grouped based on the grouping key(s); following the grouping clause, only the grouping key(s) and the variables named in the with subclause remain in scope, and the named grouping variables now contain lists formed from their input values. The <tt>limit</tt> clause caps the number of values returned, optionally starting its result count from a specified offset. (Web applications can use this feature for doing pagination.) The <tt>distinct</tt> clause is similar to the <tt>group-by</tt> clause, but it forms no groups; it serves only to eliminate duplicate values. As indicated by the grammar, the clauses in an AQL query can appear in any order. To interpret a query, one can think of data as flowing down through the query from the first clause to the <tt>return</tt> clause.</p>
+<p>The following example shows a FLWOR expression that selects and returns one user from the dataset FacebookUsers.</p>
+<div class="section">
+<div class="section">
+<h5><a name="Example"></a>Example</h5>
+
+<div class="source">
+<div class="source">
+<pre>for $user in dataset FacebookUsers
+where $user.id = 8
+return $user
+</pre></div></div>
+<p>The next example shows a FLWOR expression that joins two datasets, FacebookUsers and FacebookMessages, returning user/message pairs. The results contain one object per pair, with result objects containing the user&#x2019;s name and an entire message.</p></div>
+<div class="section">
+<h5><a name="Example"></a>Example</h5>

+return
+  {
+    &quot;uname&quot;: $user.name,
+    &quot;message&quot;: $message.message
+  };
+</pre></div></div>
+<p>In the next example, a <tt>let</tt> clause is used to bind a variable to all of a user&#x2019;s FacebookMessages. The query returns one object per user, with result objects containing the user&#x2019;s name and the set of all messages by that user.</p></div>
+<div class="section">

+<p>The following example returns all TwitterUsers ordered by their followers count (most followers first) and language. When ordering <tt>null</tt> is treated as being smaller than any other value if <tt>null</tt>s are encountered in the ordering key(s).</p></div>

+<div class="source">
+<pre>  for $user in dataset TwitterUsers
+  order by $user.followers_count desc, $user.lang asc
+  return $user
+</pre></div></div>
+<p>The next example illustrates the use of the <tt>group by</tt> clause in AQL. After the <tt>group by</tt> clause in the query, only variables that are either in the <tt>group by</tt> list or in the <tt>with</tt> list are in scope. The variables in the clause&#x2019;s <tt>with</tt> list will each contain a collection of items following the <tt>group by</tt> clause; the collected items are the values that the source variable was bound to in the tuples that formed the group. For grouping <tt>null</tt> is handled as a single value.</p></div>
+<div class="section">
+<h5><a name="Example"></a>Example</h5>
+
+<div class="source">
+<div class="source">
+<pre>  for $x in dataset FacebookMessages

+    {
+      &quot;location&quot; : $loc,
+      &quot;message&quot; : $messages
+    }
+</pre></div></div>
+<p>The use of the <tt>limit</tt> clause is illustrated in the next example.</p></div>

+<h5><a name="Example"></a>Example</h5>

+<div class="source">
+<pre>  for $user in dataset TwitterUsers

+  limit 2
+  return $user
+</pre></div></div>
+<p>The final example shows how AQL&#x2019;s <tt>distinct by</tt> clause works. Each variable in scope before the distinct clause is also in scope after the <tt>distinct by</tt> clause. This clause works similarly to <tt>group by</tt>, but for each variable that contains more than one value after the <tt>distinct by</tt> clause, one value is picked nondeterministically. (If the variable is in the <tt>distinct by</tt> list, then its value will be deterministic.) Nulls are treated as a single value when they occur in a grouping field.</p></div>

+<p>In order to allow SQL fans to write queries in their favored ways, AQL provides synonyms: <i>from</i> for <i>for</i>, <i>select</i> for <i>return</i>, <i>with</i> for <i>let</i>, and <i>keeping</i> for <i>with</i> in the group by clause. The following query is such an example.</p></div>

+<p>The create dataverse statement is used to create new dataverses. To ease the authoring of reusable AQL scripts, its optional IfNotExists clause allows creation to be requested either unconditionally or only if the the dataverse does not already exist. If this clause is absent, an error will be returned if the specified dataverse already exists. The <tt>with format</tt> clause is a placeholder for future functionality that can safely be ignored.</p>

+<p>The create type statement is used to create a new named ADM datatype. This type can then be used to create datasets or utilized when defining one or more other ADM datatypes. Much more information about the Asterix Data Model (ADM) is available in the <a href="datamodel.html">data model reference guide</a> to ADM. A new type can be a object type, a renaming of another type, an ordered list type, or an unordered list type. A object type can be defined as being either open or closed. Instances of a closed object type are not permitted to contain fields other than those specified in the create type statement. Instances of an open object type may carry additional fields, and open is the default for a new type (if neither option is specified).</p>
+<p>The following example creates a new ADM object type called FacebookUser type. Since it is closed, its instances will contain only what is specified in the type definition. The first four fields are traditional typed name/value pairs. The friend-ids field is an unordered list of 32-bit integers. The employment field is an ordered list of instances of another named object type, EmploymentType.</p>

+<p>The create dataset statement is used to create a new dataset. Datasets are named, unordered collections of ADM object instances; they are where data lives persistently and are the targets for queries in AsterixDB. Datasets are typed, and AsterixDB will ensure that their contents conform to their type definitions. An Internal dataset (the default) is a dataset that is stored in and managed by AsterixDB. It must have a specified unique primary key that can be used to partition data across nodes of an AsterixDB cluster. The primary key is also used in secondary indexes to uniquely identify the indexed primary data objects. Random primary key (UUID) values can be auto-generated by declaring the field to be UUID and putting &#x201c;autogenerated&#x201d; after the &#x201c;primary key&#x201d; identifier. In this case, values for the auto-generated PK field should not be provided by the user since it will be auto-generated by AsterixDB. Optionally, a filter can be created on a field to further optimize range queries with predicates on the filter&#x2019;s field. (Refer to <a href="filters.html">Filter-Based LSM Index Acceleration</a> for more information about filters.)</p>
+<p>An External dataset is stored outside of AsterixDB (currently datasets in HDFS or on the local filesystem(s) of the cluster&#x2019;s nodes are supported). External dataset support allows AQL queries to treat external data as though it were stored in AsterixDB, making it possible to query &#x201c;legacy&#x201d; file data (e.g., Hive data) without having to physically import it into AsterixDB. For an external dataset, an appropriate adapter must be selected to handle the nature of the desired external data. (See the <a href="externaldata.html">guide to external data</a> for more information on the available adapters.)</p>
+<p>When creating a dataset, it is possible to choose a merge policy that controls which of the underlaying LSM storage components to be merged. Currently, AsterixDB provides four different merge policies that can be configured per dataset: no-merge, constant, prefix, and correlated-prefix. The no-merge policy simply never merges disk components. While the constant policy merges disk components when the number of components reaches some constant number k, which can be configured by the user. The prefix policy relies on component sizes and the number of components to decide which components to merge. Specifically, it works by first trying to identify the smallest ordered (oldest to newest) sequence of components such that the sequence does not contain a single component that exceeds some threshold size M and that either the sum of the component&#x2019;s sizes exceeds M or the number of components in the sequence exceeds another threshold C. If such a sequence of components exists, then each of the components in the sequence are merged together to form a single component. Finally, the correlated-prefix is similar to the prefix policy but it delegates the decision of merging the disk components of all the indexes in a dataset to the primary index. When the policy decides that the primary index needs to be merged (using the same decision criteria as for the prefix policy), then it will issue successive merge requests on behalf of all other indexes associated with the same dataset. The default policy for AsterixDB is the prefix policy except when there is a filter on a dataset, where the preferred policy for filters is the correlated-prefix.</p>

+<p>The AQL insert statement is used to insert data into a dataset. The data to be inserted comes from an AQL query expression. The expression can be as simple as a constant expression, or in general it can be any legal AQL query. Inserts in AsterixDB are processed transactionally, with the scope of each insert transaction being the insertion of a single object plus its affiliated secondary index entries (if any). If the query part of an insert returns a single object, then the insert statement itself will be a single, atomic transaction. If the query part returns multiple objects, then each object inserted will be handled independently as a tranaction. If a dataset has an auto-generated primary key field, an insert statement should not include a value for that field in it. (The system will automatically extend the provided object with this additional field and a corresponding value.). The optional &#x201c;as Variable&#x201d; provides a variable binding for the inserted objects, which can be used in the &#x201c;returning&#x201d; clause. The optional &#x201c;returning Query&#x201d; allows users to run simple queries/functions on the objects returned by the insert. This query cannot refer to any datasets.</p>

+<p>The AQL delete statement is used to delete data from a target dataset. The data to be deleted is identified by a boolean expression involving the variable bound to the target dataset in the delete statement. Deletes in AsterixDB are processed transactionally, with the scope of each delete transaction being the deletion of a single object plus its affiliated secondary index entries (if any). If the boolean expression for a delete identifies a single object, then the delete statement itself will be a single, atomic transaction. If the expression identifies multiple objects, then each object deleted will be handled independently as a transaction.</p>

The expression can be as simple as a constant expression, or in general it can be any legal AQL query. Upserts in AsterixDB are processed transactionally, with the scope of each upsert transaction being the upsertion (deletion if found + insertion) of a single object plus its affiliated secondary index entries (if any). If the query part of an upsert returns a single object, then the upsert statement itself will be a single, atomic transaction.
