common table expression

Common table expression简称CTE，由SQL:1999标准引入，
目前支持CTE的数据库有Teradata, DB2, Firebird, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle (with recursion since 11g release 2), PostgreSQL (since 8.4), MariaDB (since 10.2), SQLite (since 3.8.3), HyperSQL and H2 (experimental), MySQL8.0.

CTE的语法如下：

WITH [RECURSIVE] with_query [, ...]
SELECT...

with_query:
query_name [ (column_name [,...]) ] AS (SELECT ...)

以下图示来自MariaDB

Non-recursive CTEs

Recursive CTEs

CTE的使用

CTE使语句更加简洁

例如以下两个语句表达的是同一语义，使用CTE比未使用CTE的嵌套查询更简洁明了。

1) 使用嵌套子查询

SELECT MAX(txt), MIN(txt)
FROM
(
  SELECT concat(cte2.txt, cte3.txt) as txt
  FROM
  (
    SELECT CONCAT(cte1.txt,'is a ') as txt
    FROM
    (
      SELECT 'This ' as txt
    ) as cte1
  ) as cte2,
  (
    SELECT 'nice query' as txt
    UNION
    SELECT 'query that rocks'
    UNION
    SELECT 'query'
  ) as cte3
) as cte4;

2) 使用CTE

WITH cte1(txt) AS (SELECT "This "),
     cte2(txt) AS (SELECT CONCAT(cte1.txt,"is a ") FROM cte1),
     cte3(txt) AS (SELECT "nice query" UNION
                   SELECT "query that rocks" UNION
                   SELECT "query"),
     cte4(txt) AS (SELECT concat(cte2.txt, cte3.txt) FROM cte2, cte3)
SELECT MAX(txt), MIN(txt) FROM cte4;

CTE 可以进行树形查询

初始化这颗树

create table t1(id int, value char(10), parent_id int);
insert into t1 values(1, 'A', NULL);
insert into t1 values(2, 'B', 1);
insert into t1 values(3, 'C', 1);
insert into t1 values(4, 'D', 1);
insert into t1 values(5, 'E', 2);
insert into t1 values(6, 'F', 2);
insert into t1 values(7, 'G', 4);
insert into t1 values(8, 'H', 6);

1) 层序遍历

with recursive cte as (
  select id, value, 0 as level from t1 where parent_id is null
  union all
  select t1.id, t1.value, cte.level+1 from cte join t1 on t1.parent_id=cte.id)
select * from cte;
+------+-------+-------+
| id   | value | level |
+------+-------+-------+
|    1 | A     |     0 |
|    2 | B     |     1 |
|    3 | C     |     1 |
|    4 | D     |     1 |
|    5 | E     |     2 |
|    6 | F     |     2 |
|    7 | G     |     2 |
|    8 | H     |     3 |
+------+-------+-------+

2) 深度优先遍历

with recursive cte as (
  select id, value, 0 as level, CAST(id AS CHAR(200)) AS path  from t1 where parent_id is null
  union all
  select t1.id, t1.value, cte.level+1, CONCAT(cte.path, ",", t1.id)  from cte join t1 on t1.parent_id=cte.id)
select * from cte order by path;
+------+-------+-------+---------+
| id   | value | level | path    |
+------+-------+-------+---------+
|    1 | A     |     0 | 1       |
|    2 | B     |     1 | 1,2     |
|    5 | E     |     2 | 1,2,5   |
|    6 | F     |     2 | 1,2,6   |
|    8 | H     |     3 | 1,2,6,8 |
|    3 | C     |     1 | 1,3     |
|    4 | D     |     1 | 1,4     |
|    7 | G     |     2 | 1,4,7   |
+------+-------+-------+---------+

Oracle

Oracle从9.2才开始支持CTE, 但只支持non-recursive with, 直到Oracle 11.2才完全支持CTE。但oracle 之前就支持connect by 的树形查询，recursive with 语句可以与connect by语句相互转化。一些相互转化案例可以参考这里.

Oracle recursive with 语句不需要指定recursive关键字，可以自动识别是否recursive.

Oracle 还支持CTE相关的hint,

WITH dept_count AS (
  SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ deptno, COUNT(*) AS dept_count
  FROM   emp
  GROUP BY deptno)
SELECT ...

WITH dept_count AS (
  SELECT /*+ INLINE */ deptno, COUNT(*) AS dept_count
  FROM   emp
  GROUP BY deptno)
SELECT ...

“MATERIALIZE”告诉优化器产生一个全局的临时表保存结果，多次引用CTE时直接访问临时表即可。而”INLINE”则表示每次需要解析查询CTE。

PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL从8.4开始支持CTE，PostgreSQL还扩展了CTE的功能， CTE的query中支持DML语句，例如

create table t1 (c1 int, c2 char(10));
 insert into t1 values(1,'a'),(2,'b');
 select * from t1;
 c1 | c2
----+----
  1 | a
  2 | b


 WITH cte AS (
     UPDATE t1 SET c1= c1 * 2 where c1=1
     RETURNING *
 )
 SELECT * FROM cte; //返回更新的值
 c1 |     c2
----+------------
  2 | a

 truncate table t1;
 insert into t1 values(1,'a'),(2,'b');
 WITH cte AS (
     UPDATE t1 SET c1= c1 * 2 where c1=1
     RETURNING *
 )
 SELECT * FROM t1;//返回原值
 c1 |     c2
----+------------
  1 | a
  2 | b


 truncate table t1;
 insert into t1 values(1,'a'),(2,'b');
 WITH cte AS (
     DELETE FROM t1
     WHERE c1=1
     RETURNING *
 )
 SELECT * FROM cte;//返回删除的行
 c1 |     c2
----+------------
  1 | a


 truncate table t1;
 insert into t1 values(1,'a'),(2,'b');
 WITH cte AS (
     DELETE FROM t1
     WHERE c1=1
     RETURNING *
 )
 SELECT * FROM t1;//返回原值
 c1 |     c2
----+------------
  1 | a
  2 | b
(2 rows)

MariaDB

MariaDB从10.2开始支持CTE。10.2.1 支持non-recursive CTE, 10.2.2开始支持recursive CTE。目前的GA的版本是10.1.

MySQL从8.0开始支持完整的CTE。MySQL8.0还在development
阶段，RC都没有，GA还需时日。

AliSQL

AliSQL基于mariadb10.2， port了no-recursive CTE的实现，此功能近期会上线。

以下从源码主要相关函数简要介绍其实现，

//解析识别with table引用
find_table_def_in_with_clauses

//检查依赖关系，比如不能重复定义with table名字
With_clause::check_dependencies

// 为每个引用clone一份定义
With_element::clone_parsed_spec

//替换with table指定的列名
With_element::rename_columns_of_derived_unit

此实现对于多次引用CTE，CTE会解析多次，因此此版本CTE有简化SQL的作用，但效率上没有效提高。
