Function list

Name Summary
MAP_CONTAINS_KEY Checks if a key is in a map.
MAP_EMPTY Checks if a map is empty.
MAP_ENTRIES Gets an array of key-value pairs from a map, sorted in ascending order by key.

MAP_CONTAINS_KEY

  MAP_CONTAINS_KEY 
 ( 
 input_map 
 , 
  
 key_to_find 
 ) 
 

Description

Checks if a key is in a map. Returns TRUE if the key is found. Otherwise, returns FALSE .

Definitions

  • input_map : A MAP<K,V> value that represents the map to search. If this value is NULL , the function returns NULL .
  • key_to_find : The key to find in the map.

Return type

BOOL

Examples

The following query checks if a column called cell_plan in a table called test_table has a key called data_plan_05gb :

  SELECT 
  
 MAP_CONTAINS_KEY 
 ( 
 cell_plan 
 , 
  
 b 
 'data_plan_05gb' 
 ) 
  
 AS 
  
 results 
 FROM 
  
 test_table 
 /*---------* 
 | results | 
 +---------+ 
 | TRUE    | 
 | TRUE    | 
 | FALSE   | 
 | FALSE   | 
 | FALSE   | 
 *---------*/ 
 

MAP_EMPTY

  MAP_EMPTY 
 ( 
 input_map 
 ) 
 

Description

Checks if a map is empty. Returns TRUE if the map is empty, otherwise FALSE .

Definitions

  • input_map : A MAP<K,V> value that represents the map to search. If this value is NULL , the function returns NULL .

Return type

BOOL

Example

The following query checks if a column called cell_plan in a table called test_table is empty:

  SELECT 
  
 MAP_EMPTY 
 ( 
 cell_plan 
 ) 
  
 AS 
  
 results 
 FROM 
  
 test_table 
 /*----------* 
 | results  | 
 +----------+

 ( 
 input_map 
 ) 
 

Description

Definitions

  • input_map : A MAP<K,V> value that represents the map to query. If this value is NULL , the function returns NULL .

Return type

ARRAY<STRUCT<K,V>>

Examples

The following query gets key-value pairs, sorted in ascending order by key, from a table called test_table :

  SELECT

 AS 
  
 results 
 FROM 
  
 test_table 
 /*-------------------------------------------------------------*

 | []                                                          | 
 | [ {"data_plan_10gb", "false"} ]                             | 
 | [ {"data_plan_10gb", "false"} ]                             | 
 *-------------------------------------------------------------*/ 
 

MAP_KEYS

  MAP_KEYS 
 ( 
 input_map 
 ) 
 

Description

Gets an array of keys from a map, sorted in ascending order.

Definitions

  • input_map : A MAP<K,V> value that represents the map to query. If this value is NULL , the function returns NULL .

Return type

ARRAY<K>

Examples

The following query gets a list of keys, sorted in ascending order, from a table called test_table :

  SELECT 
  
 MAP_KEYS 
 ( 
 cell_plan 
 ) 
  
 AS 
  
 results 
 FROM 
  
 test_table 
 /*----------------------------------------* 
 | results                                | 
 +----------------------------------------+ 
 | [ "data_plan_01gb", "data_plan_05gb" ] | 
 | [ "data_plan_05gb" ]                   | 
 | []                                     | 
 | [ "data_plan_10gb" ]                   | 
 | [ "data_plan_10gb" ]                   |
