Parse Engine

SQL is relatively simple compared with other programming languages, but it’s still a complete programming language. Therefore, there’s no essential difference between parsing SQL syntax and parsing other languages (such as Java, C and Go, etc.).

Abstract Syntax Tree

The parsing process is divided into lexical parsing and syntactic parsing. The lexical parser is used to split SQL into indivisible atomic symbols called Tokens.

Tokens are classified into keywords, expressions, literals, and operators based on the dictionaries provided by different database dialects. The syntactic parser is then used to convert the output of the lexical parser into an abstract syntax tree.

For example:

SELECT id, name FROM t_user WHERE status = 'ACTIVE' AND age > 18

After the above SQL is parsed, its AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) is as follows:

SQL AST

The tokens for keywords in the AST are green, while the tokens for variables are red, and gray ones indicate that further splitting is required.

Finally, the domain model is traversed through the abstract syntax tree by visitor; the context required for sharding is extracted through the domain model (SQLStatement); and then, mark locations that may need rewriting.

The parsing context for sharding includes select items, table, sharding condition, auto-increment primary key, and Order By, Group By, and pagination information (Limit, Rownum, Top). The SQL parsing process is irreversible.

Each Token is parsed in the original SQL order, providing high performance. Taking the similarities and differences of SQL dialects of various databases into consideration, the SQL dialect dictionary of various databases is provided in the parsing module.

SQL Parser Engine

Iteration

SQL parsing is the core of sharding solutions, and its performance and compatibility are the most important indicators. ShardingSphere’s SQL parser has undergone three iterations and upgrades.

To achieve high performance and fast implementation, the first generation of SQL parsers used Druid prior to V1.4.x. In practical tests, its performance far exceeds that of other parsers.

The second generation of SQL parsers started from V1.5.x. ShardingSphere uses a completely self-developed SQL parsing engine. Owing to different purposes, ShardingSphere does not need to convert SQL into a complete abstract syntax tree, nor does it require a second traversal through the accessor pattern. It uses a half-parsing method to extract only the context required by data sharding, thus further improving the performance and compatibility of SQL parsing.

The third generation of SQL parsers, starting with V3.0.x, attempts to use ANTLR as a generator of SQL parsing engines and uses Visit to obtain SQL statements from the AST. Since V5.0.x, the architecture of the parsing engine has been restructured and adjusted. Moreover, the AST obtained from the first parsing is stored in the cache so that the parsing results of the same SQL can be directly obtained next time to improve parsing efficiency. Therefore, it is recommended that you use PreparedStatement, a SQL-precompiled method, to improve performance.

  • Obtain AST
CacheOption cacheOption = new CacheOption(128, 1024L);
SQLParserEngine parserEngine = new SQLParserEngine(sql, cacheOption);
ParseASTNode parseASTNode = parserEngine.parse(sql, useCache);
  • Obtain SQLStatement
CacheOption cacheOption = new CacheOption(128, 1024L);
SQLParserEngine parserEngine = new SQLParserEngine(sql, cacheOption);
ParseASTNode parseASTNode = parserEngine.parse(sql, useCache);
SQLVisitorEngine sqlVisitorEngine = new SQLVisitorEngine(sql, "STATEMENT", useCache, new Properties());
SQLStatement sqlStatement = sqlVisitorEngine.visit(parseASTNode);
  • SQL Formatting
ParseASTNode parseASTNode = parserEngine.parse(sql, useCache);
SQLVisitorEngine sqlVisitorEngine = new SQLVisitorEngine(sql, "FORMAT", useCache, new Properties());
String result = sqlVisitorEngine.visit(parseASTNode);
