Reindexer

GoDoc Build Status Build Status

Reindexer is an embeddable, in-memory, document-oriented database with a high-level Query builder interface.

Reindexer’s goal is to provide fast search with complex queries. We at Restream weren’t happy with Elasticsearch and created Reindexer as a more performant alternative.

The core is written in C++ and the application level API is in Go.

This document describes Go connector and its API. To get information about reindexer server and HTTP API refer to reindexer documentation

Versions overview

There are two LTS-versions of reindexer available: v3.x.x and v4.x.x.

3.x.x is currently our mainstream branch and 4.x.x (release/4 branch) is beta-version with experimental RAFT-cluster and sharding support. Storages are compatible between those versions, however, replication configs are totally different. Versions 3 and 4 are getting all the same bugfixes and features (except replication-related ones).

Features

Key features:

Performance

Performance has been our top priority from the start, and we think we managed to get it pretty good. Benchmarks show that Reindexer’s performance is on par with a typical key-value database. On a single CPU core, we get:

See benchmarking results and more details in benchmarking repo

Memory Consumption

Reindexer aims to consume as little memory as possible; most queries are processed without any memory allocation at all.

To achieve that, several optimizations are employed, both on the C++ and Go level:

Full text search

Reindexer has internal full text search engine. Full text search usage documentation and examples are here

Disk Storage

Reindexer can store documents to and load documents from disk via LevelDB. Documents are written to the storage backend asynchronously by large batches automatically in background.

When a namespace is created, all its documents are stored into RAM, so the queries on these documents run entirely in in-memory mode.

Usage

Here is complete example of basic Reindexer usage:

package main

// Import package
import (
	"fmt"
	"math/rand"

	"github.com/restream/reindexer/v3"
	// choose how the Reindexer binds to the app (in this case "builtin," which means link Reindexer as a static library)
	_ "github.com/restream/reindexer/v3/bindings/builtin"

	// OR use Reindexer as standalone server and connect to it via TCP or unix domain socket (if available).
	// _ "github.com/restream/reindexer/v3/bindings/cproto"

	// OR link Reindexer as static library with bundled server.
	// _ "github.com/restream/reindexer/v3/bindings/builtinserver"
	// "github.com/restream/reindexer/v3/bindings/builtinserver/config"

)

// Define struct with reindex tags. Fields must be exported - private fields can not be written into reindexer
type Item struct {
	ID       int64  `reindex:"id,,pk"`    // 'id' is primary key
	Name     string `reindex:"name"`      // add index by 'name' field
	Articles []int  `reindex:"articles"`  // add index by articles 'articles' array
	Year     int    `reindex:"year,tree"` // add sortable index by 'year' field
}

func main() {
	// Init a database instance and choose the binding (builtin)
	db := reindexer.NewReindex("builtin:///tmp/reindex/testdb")

	// OR - Init a database instance and choose the binding (connect to server via TCP sockets)
	// Database should be created explicitly via reindexer_tool or via WithCreateDBIfMissing option:
	// If server security mode is enabled, then username and password are mandatory
	// db := reindexer.NewReindex("cproto://user:pass@127.0.0.1:6534/testdb", reindexer.WithCreateDBIfMissing())

	// OR - Init a database instance and choose the binding (connect to server via unix domain sockets)
	// Unix domain sockets are available on the unix systems only (socket file has to be explicitly set on the server's side with '--urpcaddr' option)
	// Database should be created explicitly via reindexer_tool or via WithCreateDBIfMissing option:
	// If server security mode is enabled, then username and password are mandatory
	// db := reindexer.NewReindex("ucproto://user:pass@/tmp/reindexer.socket:/testdb", reindexer.WithCreateDBIfMissing())

	// OR - Init a database instance and choose the binding (builtin, with bundled server)
	// serverConfig := config.DefaultServerConfig ()
	// If server security mode is enabled, then username and password are mandatory
	// db := reindexer.NewReindex("builtinserver://user:pass@testdb",reindexer.WithServerConfig(100*time.Second, serverConfig))

	// Create new namespace with name 'items', which will store structs of type 'Item'
	db.OpenNamespace("items", reindexer.DefaultNamespaceOptions(), Item{})

	// Generate dataset
	for i := 0; i < 100000; i++ {
		err := db.Upsert("items", &Item{
			ID:       int64(i),
			Name:     "Vasya",
			Articles: []int{rand.Int() % 100, rand.Int() % 100},
			Year:     2000 + rand.Int()%50,
		})
		if err != nil {
			panic(err)
		}
	}

	// Query a single document
	elem, found := db.Query("items").
		Where("id", reindexer.EQ, 40).
		Get()

	if found {
		item := elem.(*Item)
		fmt.Println("Found document:", *item)
	}

	// Query multiple documents
	query := db.Query("items").
		Sort("year", false).                          // Sort results by 'year' field in ascending order
		WhereString("name", reindexer.EQ, "Vasya").   // 'name' must be 'Vasya'
		WhereInt("year", reindexer.GT, 2020).         // 'year' must be greater than 2020
		WhereInt("articles", reindexer.SET, 6, 1, 8). // 'articles' must contain one of [6,1,8]
		Limit(10).                                    // Return maximum 10 documents
		Offset(0).                                    // from 0 position
		ReqTotal()                                    // Calculate the total count of matching documents

	// Execute the query and return an iterator
	iterator := query.Exec()
	// Iterator must be closed
	defer iterator.Close()

	fmt.Println("Found", iterator.TotalCount(), "total documents, first", iterator.Count(), "documents:")

	// Iterate over results
	for iterator.Next() {
		// Get the next document and cast it to a pointer
		elem := iterator.Object().(*Item)
		fmt.Println(*elem)
	}
	// Check the error
	if err := iterator.Error(); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
}

There are also some basic samples for C++ and Go here

SQL compatible interface

As alternative to Query builder Reindexer provides SQL compatible query interface. Here is sample of SQL interface usage:

    ...
	iterator := db.ExecSQL ("SELECT * FROM items WHERE name='Vasya' AND year > 2020 AND articles IN (6,1,8) ORDER BY year LIMIT 10")
    ...

Please note, that the Query Builder interface is preferred: it has more features and is faster than the SQL interface

String literals should be enclosed in single quotes.

Composite indexes should be enclosed in double quotes.

SELECT * FROM items WHERE "field1+field2" = 'Vasya'

If the field name does not start with alpha, ‘_’ or ‘#’ it must be enclosed in double quotes, examples:

UPDATE items DROP "123"

SELECT * FROM ns WHERE "123" = 'some_value'

SELECT * FROM ns WHERE "123abc" = 123

DELETE FROM ns WHERE "123abc123" = 111

Simple Joins may be done via default SQL syntax:

SELECT * FROM ns INNER JOIN ns2 ON ns2.id = ns.fk_id WHERE a > 0

Joins with condition on the left namespace must use subquery-like syntax:

SELECT * FROM ns WHERE a > 0 AND INNER JOIN (SELECT * FROM ns2 WHERE b > 10 AND c = 1) ON ns2.id = ns.fk_id

Subquery can also be a part of the WHERE-condition:

SELECT * FROM ns WHERE (SELECT * FROM ns2 WHERE id < 10 LIMIT 0) IS NOT NULL

SELECT * FROM ns WHERE id = (SELECT id FROM ns2 WHERE id < 10)

SELECT * FROM ns WHERE (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ns2 WHERE id < 10) > 18

Installation

Reindexer can run in 3 different modes:

Installation for server mode

In this mode Reindexer’s Go-binding does not depend on reindexer’s static library.

  1. Install Reindexer Server
  2. go get -a github.com/restream/reindexer/v3

Official docker image

The simplest way to get reindexer server, is pulling & run docker image from dockerhub.

docker run -p9088:9088 -p6534:6534 -it reindexer/reindexer

Dockerfile

Installation for embedded mode

Prerequirements

Reindexer’s core is written in C++17 and uses LevelDB as the storage backend, so the Cmake, C++17 toolchain and LevelDB must be installed before installing Reindexer.

To build Reindexer, g++ 8+, clang 7+ or mingw64 is required.

In those modes Reindexer’s Go-binding depends on reindexer’s static libraries (core, server and resource).

Get Reindexer using go.mod

This way is recommended and will fit for the most scenarios.

Go modules with go.mod do not allow to build C++ libraries in modules’ directories. Go-binding will use pkg-config to detect libraries’ directories.

Reindexer’s libraries must be either installed from sources or from prebuilt package via package manager.

Then get the module:

go get -a github.com/restream/reindexer/v3

Get Reindexer using go.mod and replace

If you need modified Reindexer’s sources, you can use replace like that.

  1. Download and build reindexer: 
    # Clone reindexer via git. It's also possible to use 'go get -a github.com/restream/reindexer/v3', but it's behavior may vary depending on Go's version
git clone https://github.com/restream/reindexer.git $GOPATH/src/reindexer
bash $GOPATH/src/reindexer/dependencies.sh
# Generate builtin binding
cd $GOPATH/src/reindexer
go generate ./bindings/builtin
# Optional (build builtin server binding)
go generate ./bindings/builtinserver
  2. Add Reindexer’s module to your application’s go.mod and replace it with the local package: 
    # Go to your app's directory
cd /your/app/path
go get -a github.com/restream/reindexer/v3
go mod edit -replace github.com/restream/reindexer/v3=$GOPATH/src/reindexer

In this case, Go-binding will generate explicit libraries’ and paths’ list and will not use pkg-config.

Get Reindexer for apps without go.mod (vendoring)

If you’re not using go.mod it’s possible to get and build reindexer from sources this way:

export GO111MODULE=off # Disable go1.11 modules
# Go to your app's directory
cd /your/app/path
# Clone reindexer via git. It's also possible to use 'go get -a github.com/restream/reindexer', but it's behavior may vary depending on Go's version
git clone --branch master https://github.com/restream/reindexer.git vendor/github.com/restream/reindexer/v3
# Generate builtin binding
go generate -x ./vendor/github.com/restream/reindexer/v3/bindings/builtin
# Optional (build builtin server binding)
go generate -x ./vendor/github.com/restream/reindexer/v3/bindings/builtinserver

Get Reindexer using go.mod (vendoring)

Go does not support proper vendoring for CGO code (https://github.com/golang/go/issues/26366), however, it’s possible to use vend to copy Reindexer’s sources into vendor-directory.

With vend you’ll be able to call go generate -mod=vendor for builtin and builtinserver, placed in your vendor-directory.

It’s also possible to copy simply copy reindexer’s sources into youth project, using git clone.

In these cases all the dependencies from Reindexer’s go.mod must be installed manually with proper versions.

Advanced Usage

Index Types and Their Capabilities

Internally, structs are split into two parts:

Queries are possible only on the indexed fields, marked with reindex tag. The reindex tag contains the index name, type, and additional options:

reindex:"<name>[[,<type>],<opts>]"

Fields with regular indexes are not nullable. Condition is NULL is supported only by sparse and array indexes.

Nested Structs

By default, Reindexer scans all nested structs and adds their fields to the namespace (as well as indexes specified). During indexes scan private (unexported fields), fields tagged with reindex:"-" and fields tagged with json:"-" will be skipped.

type Actor struct {
	Name string `reindex:"actor_name"`
	Age  int    `reindex:"age"`
}

type BaseItem struct {
	ID        int64  `reindex:"id,hash,pk"`
	UUIDValue string `reindex:"uuid_value,hash,uuid"`
}

type ComplexItem struct {
	BaseItem              // Index fields of BaseItem will be added to reindex
	Actor         []Actor // Index fields ("name" and "age") of Actor will be added to reindex as array-indexes
	Name          string  `reindex:"name"`      // Hash-index for "name"
	Year          int     `reindex:"year,tree"` // Tree-index for "year"
	Value         int     `reindex:"value,-"`   // Store(column)-index for "value"
	Metainfo      int     `json:"-"`            // Field "MetaInfo" will not be stored in reindexer
	Parent        *Item   `reindex:"-"`         // Index fields of "Parent" will NOT be added to reindex and all of the "Parent" exported content will be stored as non-indexed data
	ParentHidden  *Item   `json:"-"`            // Indexes and fields of "ParentHidden" will NOT be added to reindexer
	privateParent *Item                         // Indexes and fields of "ParentHidden" will NOT be added to reindexer (same as with `json:"-"`)
	AnotherActor  Actor   `reindex:"actor"`     // Index fields of "AnotherActor" will be added to reindexer with prefix "actor." (in this example two indexes will be created: "actor.actor_name" and "actor.age")
}

Sort

Reindexer can sort documents by fields (including nested and fields of the joined namespaces) or by expressions in ascending or descending order.

To sort by non-index fields all the values must be convertible to each other, i.e. either have the same types or be one of th numeric types (bool, int, int64 or float).

Sort expressions can contain:

If field name followed by + they must be separated by space to distinguish composite index name. Fields of the joined namespaces must be written like this: joined_namespace.field.

Abs() means absolute value of an argument.

Rank() means fulltext rank of match and is applicable only in fulltext query.

ST_Distance() means distance between geometry points (see geometry subsection). The points could be columns in current or joined namespaces or fixed point in format ST_GeomFromText('point(1 -3)')

In SQL query sort expression must be quoted.

type Person struct {
	Name string `reindex:"name"`
	Age  int    `reindex:"age"`
}

type City struct {
	Id                 int               `reindex:"id"`
	NumberOfPopulation int               `reindex:"population"`
	Center             reindexer.Point `reindex:"center,rtree,linear"`
}

type Actor struct {
	ID          int               `reindex:"id"`
	PersonData  Person            `reindex:"person"`
	Price       int               `reindex:"price"`
	Description string            `reindex:"description,text"`
	BirthPlace  int               `reindex:"birth_place_id"`
	Location    reindexer.Point `reindex:"location,rtree,greene"`
}
....

query := db.Query("actors").Sort("id", true)           // Sort by field
....
query = db.Query("actors").Sort("person.age", true)   // Sort by nested field
....
// Sort by joined field
// Works for inner join only, when each item from left namespace has exactly one joined item from right namespace
query = db.Query("actors").
	InnerJoin(db.Query("cities")).On("birth_place_id", reindexer.EQ, "id").
	Sort("cities.population", true)
....
// Sort by expression:
query = db.Query("actors").Sort("person.age / -10 + price / 1000 * (id - 5)", true)
....
query = db.Query("actors").Where("description", reindexer.EQ, "ququ").
    Sort("rank() + id / 100", true)   // Sort with fulltext rank
....
// Sort by geometry distance
query = db.Query("actors").
    Join(db.Query("cities")).On("birth_place_id", reindexer.EQ, "id").
    SortStPointDistance(cities.center, reindexer.Point{1.0, -3.0}, true).
    SortStFieldDistance("location", "cities.center", true)
....
// In SQL query:
iterator := db.ExecSQL ("SELECT * FROM actors ORDER BY person.name ASC")
....
iterator := db.ExecSQL ("SELECT * FROM actors WHERE description = 'ququ' ORDER BY 'rank() + id / 100' DESC")
....
iterator := db.ExecSQL ("SELECT * FROM actors ORDER BY 'ST_Distance(location, ST_GeomFromText(\'point(1 -3)\'))' ASC")
....
iterator := db.ExecSQL ("SELECT * FROM actors ORDER BY 'ST_Distance(location, cities.center)' ASC")

It is also possible to set a custom sort order like this

type SortModeCustomItem struct {
	ID      int    `reindex:"id,,pk"`
	InsItem string `reindex:"item_custom,hash,collate_custom=a-zA-Z0-9"`
}

or like this

type SortModeCustomItem struct {
	ID      int    `reindex:"id,,pk"`
	InsItem string `reindex:"item_custom,hash,collate_custom=АаБбВвГгДдЕеЖжЗзИиКкЛлМмНнОоПпРрСсТтУуФфХхЦцЧчШшЩщЪъЫыЬьЭ-ЯAaBbCcDdEeFfGgHhIiJjKkLlMmNnOoPpQqRrSsTtUuVvWwXxYyZz0-9ЁёЙйэ-я"`
}

The very first character in this list has the highest priority, priority of the last character is the smallest one. It means that sorting algorithm will put items that start with the first character before others. If some characters are skipped their priorities would have their usual values (according to characters in the list).

Text pattern search with LIKE condition

For simple searching text pattern in string fields condition LIKE can be used. It looks for strings matching the pattern. In the pattern _ means any char and % means any sequence of chars.

Go example:

	query := db.Query("items").
		Where("field", reindexer.LIKE, "pattern")

SQL example:

SELECT * FROM items WHERE fields LIKE 'pattern'

‘me_t’ corresponds to ‘meet’, ‘meat’, ‘melt’ and so on ‘%tion’ corresponds to ‘tion’, ‘condition’, ‘creation’ and so on

CAUTION: condition LIKE uses scan method. It can be used for debug purposes or within queries with another good selective conditions.

Generally for full text search with reasonable speed we recommend to use fulltext index.

Update queries

UPDATE queries are used to modify existing items of a namespace. There are several kinds of update queries: updating existing fields, adding new fields and dropping existing non-indexed fields.

UPDATE Sql-Syntax

UPDATE nsName
SET field1 = value1, field2 = value2, ..
WHERE condition;

It is also possible to use arithmetic expressions with +, -, /, * and brackets

UPDATE NS SET field1 = field2+field3-(field4+5)/2

including functions like now(), sec() and serial(). To use expressions from Golang code SetExpression() method needs to be called instead of Set().

To make an array-field empty

UPDATE NS SET arrayfield = [] WHERE id = 100

and set it to null

UPDATE NS SET field = NULL WHERE id > 100

In case of non-indexed fields, setting its value to a value of a different type will replace it completely; in case of indexed fields, it is only possible to convert it from adjacent type (integral types and bool), numeric strings (like “123456”) to integral types and back. Setting indexed field to null resets it to a default value.

It is possible to add new fields to existing items

UPDATE NS SET newField = 'Brand new!' WHERE id > 100

and even add a new field by a complex nested path like this

UPDATE NS SET nested.nested2.nested3.nested4.newField = 'new nested field!' WHERE id > 100

will create the following nested objects: nested, nested2, nested3, nested4 and newField as a member of object nested4.

Example of using Update queries in golang code:

db.Query("items").Where("id", reindexer.EQ, 40).Set("field1", values).Update()

Update field with object

Reindexer enables to update and add object fields. Object can be set by either a struct, a map or a byte array (that is a JSON version of object representation).

type ClientData struct {
    Name          string `reindex:"name" json:"name"`
	Age           int    `reindex:"age" json:"age"`
	Address       int    `reindex:"year" json:"year"`
	Occupation    string `reindex:"occupation" json:"occupation"`
	TaxYear       int    `reindex:tax_year json:"tax_year"`
	TaxConsultant string `reindex:tax_consultant json:"tax_consultant"`
}
type Client struct {
	ID      int         `reindex:"id" json:"id"`
	Data    ClientData  `reindex:"client_data" json:"client_data"`
	...
}
clientData := updateClientData(clientId)
db.Query("clients").Where("id", reindexer.EQ, 100).SetObject("client_data", clientData).Update()

In this case, Map in golang can only work with string as a key. map[string]interface{} is a perfect choice.

Updating of object field by Sql statement:

UPDATE clients SET client_data = {"Name":"John Doe","Age":40,"Address":"Fifth Avenue, Manhattan","Occupation":"Bank Manager","TaxYear":1999,"TaxConsultant":"Jane Smith"} WHERE id = 100;

Remove field via update-query

UPDATE Sql-Syntax of queries that drop existing non-indexed fields:

UPDATE nsName
DROP field1, field2, ..
WHERE condition;

db.Query("items").Where("id", reindexer.EQ, 40).Drop("field1").Update()

Update array elements by indexes

Reindexer update mechanism enables to modify array fields: to modify a certain item of an existing array or even to replace an entire field.

To update an item subscription operator syntax is used:

UPDATE NS SET array[*].prices[0] = 9999 WHERE id = 5

where * means all items.

To update entire array the following is used:

UPDATE NS SET prices = [999, 1999, 2999] WHERE id = 9

any non-indexed field can be easily converted to array using this syntax.

Reindexer also allows to update items of object arrays:

UPDATE NS SET extra.objects[0] = {"Id":0,"Description":"Updated!"} WHERE id = 9

also like this

db.Query("clients").Where("id", reindexer.EQ, 100).SetObject("extra.objects[0]", updatedValue).Update()

Reindexer supports heterogeneous arrays:

UPDATE NS SET info = ["hi", "bro", 111, 2.71] WHERE id = 9

	q := DB.Query(ns).Where("id", reindexer.EQ, 1).Set("array", []interface{}{"whatsup", 777, "bro"})
	res, err := q.Update().FetchAll()

Index array-fields support values that can be converted to an index type only. When saved, such values may change precision due to conversion.

UPDATE NS SET prices_idx = [11, '2', 3]

To remove item by index you should do the following:

UPDATE NS DROP array[5]

Concatenate arrays

To add items to an existing array the following syntax is supported:

UPDATE NS SET integer_array = integer_array || [5,6,7,8]

and

UPDATE NS SET integer_array = [1,2,3,4,5] || integer_array

The first one adds elements to the end of integer_array, the second one adds 5 items to the front of it. To make this code work in Golang SetExpression() should be used instead of Set().

Remove array elements by values

To remove items by value into an existing array the following syntax is supported:

UPDATE NS SET integer_array = array_remove(integer_array, [5,6,7,8])

and

UPDATE NS SET integer_array = array_remove_once(integer_array, [5,6,7,8,6])

The first one removes all occurrences of the listed values in integer_array, the second one deletes only the first occurrence found. To make this code work in Golang SetExpression() should be used instead of Set(). If you need to remove one value, you can use square brackets [5] or simple value 5.

UPDATE NS SET integer_array = array_remove(integer_array, [5])

update ns set integer_array = array_remove(integer_array, 5)

Remove command can be combined with array concatenate:

UPDATE NS SET integer_array = array_remove_once(integer_array, [5,6,7,8]) || [1,2,3]

also like this

db.Query("main_ns").SetExpression("integer_array", "array_remove(integer_array, [5,6,7,8]) || [1,2,3]").Update()

It is possible to remove the values of the second field from the values of the first field. And also add new values etc. Note: The first parameter in commands is expected to be an array/field-array, the second parameter can be an array/scalar/field-array/field-scalar. For values compatibility/convertibility required

UPDATE NS SET integer_array = [3] || array_remove(integer_array, integer_array2) || integer_array3 || array_remove_once(integer_array, [8,1]) || [2,4]

UPDATE NS SET integer_array = array_remove(integer_array, integer_array2) || array_remove(integer_array, integer_array3) || array_remove_once(integer_array, [33,777])

db.Query("main_ns").SetExpression("integer_array", "[3] || array_remove(integer_array, integer_array2) || integer_array3 || array_remove(integer_array, [8,1]) || [2,4]").Update()

Transactions and batch update

Reindexer supports transactions. Transaction are performs atomic namespace update. There are synchronous and async transaction available. To start transaction method db.BeginTx() is used. This method creates transaction object, which provides usual Update/Upsert/Insert/Delete interface for application. For RPC clients there is transactions count limitation - each connection can’t have more than 1024 open transactions at the same time.

Synchronous mode

	// Create new transaction object
	tx, err := db.BeginTx("items");
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	// Fill transaction object
	tx.Upsert(&Item{ID: 100})
	tx.Upsert(&Item{ID: 101})
	tx.Query().WhereInt("id", reindexer.EQ, 102).Set("Name", "Petya").Update()
	// Apply transaction
	if err := tx.Commit(); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

Async batch mode

For speed up insertion of bulk records async mode can be used.

	// Create new transaction object
	tx, err := db.BeginTx("items");
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	// Prepare transaction object async.
	tx.UpsertAsync(&Item{ID: 100},func(err error) {})
	tx.UpsertAsync(&Item{ID: 100},func(err error) {})
	// Wait for async operations done, and apply transaction.
	if err := tx.Commit(); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

The second argument of UpsertAsync is completion function, which will be called after receiving server response. Also, if any error occurred during prepare process, then tx.Commit should return an error. So it is enough, to check error returned by tx.Commit - to be sure, that all data has been successfully committed or not.

Transactions commit strategies

Depending on amount of changes in transaction there are 2 possible Commit strategies:

The amount of data for selecting a Commit strategy can be selected in the namespace configuration. Check fields StartCopyPolicyTxSize, CopyPolicyMultiplier and TxSizeToAlwaysCopy in struct DBNamespacesConfig(describer.go)

If transaction size is less than TxSizeToAlwaysCopy, reindexer uses extra heuristic and trying to avoid namespace copying, if there were no selecting queries seen for this namespace. In some cases this heuristic may increase selects latency, so it may be disabled by setting REINDEXER_NOTXHEURISTIC env variable to any non-empty value.

Implementation notes

  1. Transaction object is not thread safe and can’t be used from different goroutines;
  2. Transaction object holds Reindexer’s resources, therefore application should explicitly call Rollback or Commit, otherwise resources will leak;
  3. It is safe to call Rollback after Commit;
  4. It is possible to call Query from transaction by call tx.Query("ns").Exec() ...;
  5. Only serializable isolation is available, i.e. each transaction takes exclusive lock over the target namespace until all the steps of the transaction committed.

Join

Reindexer can join documents from multiple namespaces into a single result:

type Actor struct {
	ID        int    `reindex:"id"`
	Name      string `reindex:"name"`
	IsVisible bool   `reindex:"is_visible"`
}

// Fields, marked with 'joined' must also be exported - otherwise reindexer's binding will not be able to put data in those fields
type ItemWithJoin struct {
	ID          int      `reindex:"id"`
	Name        string   `reindex:"name"`
	ActorsIDs   []int    `reindex:"actors_ids"`
	ActorsNames []int    `reindex:"actors_names"`
	Actors      []*Actor `reindex:"actors,,joined"`
}
....

query := db.Query("items_with_join").Join(
	db.Query("actors").
		WhereBool("is_visible", reindexer.EQ, true),
	"actors"
).On("actors_ids", reindexer.SET, "id")

it := query.Exec()

In this example, Reindexer uses reflection under the hood to create Actor slice and copy Actor struct.

Join query may have from one to several On conditions connected with And (by default), Or or Not operators:

query := db.Query("items_with_join").
	Join(
		db.Query("actors").
			WhereBool("is_visible", reindexer.EQ, true),
		"actors").
	On("actors_ids", reindexer.SET, "id").
	Or().
	On("actors_names", reindexer.SET, "name")

An InnerJoin combines data from two namespaces where there is a match on the joining fields in both namespaces. A LeftJoin returns all valid items from the namespaces on the left side of the LeftJoin keyword, along with the values from the table on the right side, or nothing if a matching item doesn’t exist. Join is an alias for LeftJoin.

InnerJoins can be used as a condition in Where clause:

query1 := db.Query("items_with_join").
	WhereInt("id", reindexer.RANGE, []int{0, 100}).
	Or().
	InnerJoin(db.Query("actors").WhereString("name", reindexer.EQ, "ActorName"), "actors").
	On("actors_ids", reindexer.SET, "id").
	Or().
	InnerJoin(db.Query("actors").WhereInt("id", reindexer.RANGE, []int{100, 200}), "actors").
	On("actors_ids", reindexer.SET, "id")

query2 := db.Query("items_with_join").
	WhereInt("id", reindexer.RANGE, []int{0, 100}).
	Or().
	OpenBracket().
		InnerJoin(db.Query("actors").WhereString("name", reindexer.EQ, "ActorName"), "actors").
		On("actors_ids", reindexer.SET, "id").
		InnerJoin(db.Query("actors").WhereInt("id", reindexer.RANGE, []int{100, 200}), "actors").
		On("actors_ids", reindexer.SET, "id").
	CloseBracket()

query3 := db.Query("items_with_join").
	WhereInt("id", reindexer.RANGE, []int{0, 100}).
	Or().
	InnerJoin(db.Query("actors").WhereInt("id", reindexer.RANGE, []int{100, 200}), "actors").
	On("actors_ids", reindexer.SET, "id").
	Limit(0)

Note that usually Or operator implements short-circuiting for Where conditions: if the previous condition is true the next one is not evaluated. But in case of InnerJoin it works differently: in query1 (from the example above) both InnerJoin conditions are evaluated despite the result of WhereInt. Limit(0) as part of InnerJoin (query3 from the example above) does not join any data - it works like a filter only to verify conditions.

Anti-join

Reindexer does not support ANTI JOIN SQL construction, however, it supports logical operations with JOINs. In fact NOT (INNER JOIN ...) is totally equivalent to the ANTI JOIN:

query := db.Query("items_with_join").
	Not().
	OpenBracket(). // Brackets are essential here for NOT to work
		InnerJoin(
		db.Query("actors").
			WhereBool("is_visible", reindexer.EQ, true),
		"actors").
		On("id", reindexer.EQ, "id")
	CloseBracket()

SELECT * FROM items_with_join
WHERE
	NOT (
		INNER JOIN (
			SELECT * FROM actors WHERE is_visible = true
		) ON items_with_join.id = actors.id
	)

Joinable interface

To avoid using reflection, Item can implement Joinable interface. If that implemented, Reindexer uses this instead of the slow reflection-based implementation. This increases overall performance by 10-20%, and reduces the amount of allocations.

// Joinable interface implementation.
// Join adds items from the joined namespace to the `ItemWithJoin` object.
// When calling Joinable interface, additional context variable can be passed to implement extra logic in Join.
func (item *ItemWithJoin) Join(field string, subitems []interface{}, context interface{}) {

	switch field {
	case "actors":
		for _, joinItem := range subitems {
			item.Actors = append(item.Actors, joinItem.(*Actor))
		}
	}
}

Subqueries (nested queries)

A condition could be applied to result of another query (subquery) included into the current query. The condition may either be on resulting rows of the subquery:

query := db.Query("main_ns").
	WhereQuery(db.Query("second_ns").Select("id").Where("age", reindexer.GE, 18), reindexer.GE, 100)

or between a field of main query’s namespace and result of the subquery:

query := db.Query("main_ns").
	Where("id", reindexer.EQ, db.Query("second_ns").Select("id").Where("age", reindexer.GE, 18))

Result of the subquery may either be a certain field pointed by Select method (in this case it must set the single field filter):

query1 := db.Query("main_ns").
	WhereQuery(db.Query("second_ns").Select("id").Where("age", reindexer.GE, 18), reindexer.GE, 100)
query2 := db.Query("main_ns").
	Where("id", reindexer.EQ, db.Query("second_ns").Select("id").Where("age", reindexer.GE, 18))

or count of items satisfying to the subquery required by ReqTotal or CachedTotal methods:

query1 := db.Query("main_ns").
	WhereQuery(db.Query("second_ns").Where("age", reindexer.GE, 18).ReqTotal(), reindexer.GE, 100)
query2 := db.Query("main_ns").
	Where("id", reindexer.EQ, db.Query("second_ns").Where("age", reindexer.GE, 18).CachedTotal())

or aggregation:

query1 := db.Query("main_ns").
	WhereQuery(db.Query("second_ns").Where("age", reindexer.GE, 18).AggregateMax("age"), reindexer.GE, 33)
query2 := db.Query("main_ns").
	Where("age", reindexer.GE, db.Query("second_ns").Where("age", reindexer.GE, 18).AggregateAvg("age"))

Min, Max, Avg, Sum, Count and CountCached aggregations are allowed only. Subquery can not contain multiple aggregations at the same time.

Subquery can be applied to the same namespace or to the another one.

Subquery can not contain another subquery, join or merge.

If you want to check if at least one of the items is satisfying to the subqueries, you may use ANY or EMPTY condition:

query1 := db.Query("main_ns").
	WhereQuery(db.Query("second_ns").Where("age", reindexer.GE, 18), reindexer.ANY, nil)
query2 := db.Query("main_ns").
		WhereQuery(db.Query("second_ns").Where("age", reindexer.LE, 18), reindexer.EMPTY, nil)

Complex Primary Keys and Composite Indexes

A Document can have multiple fields as a primary key. To enable this feature add composite index to struct. Composite index is an index that involves multiple fields, it can be used instead of several separate indexes.

type Item struct {
	ID    int64 `reindex:"id"`     // 'id' is a part of a primary key
	SubID int   `reindex:"sub_id"` // 'sub_id' is a part of a primary key
	// Fields
	//	....
	// Composite index
	_ struct{} `reindex:"id+sub_id,,composite,pk"`
}

OR

type Item struct {
	ID       int64 `reindex:"id,-"`         // 'id' is a part of primary key, WITHOUT personal searchable index
	SubID    int   `reindex:"sub_id,-"`     // 'sub_id' is a part of a primary key, WITHOUT a personal searchable index
	SubSubID int   `reindex:"sub_sub_id,-"` // 'sub_sub_id' is a part of a primary key WITHOUT a personal searchable index

	// Fields
	// ....

	// Composite index
	_ struct{} `reindex:"id+sub_id+sub_sub_id,,composite,pk"`
}

Also composite indexes are useful for sorting results by multiple fields:

type Item struct {
	ID     int64 `reindex:"id,,pk"`
	Rating int   `reindex:"rating"`
	Year   int   `reindex:"year"`

	// Composite index
	_ struct{} `reindex:"rating+year,tree,composite"`
}

...
	// Sort query results by rating first, then by year
	query := db.Query("items").Sort("rating+year", true)

	// Sort query results by rating first, then by year, and put item where rating == 5 and year == 2010 first
	query := db.Query("items").Sort("rating+year", true,[]interface{}{5,2010})

For make query to the composite index, pass []interface{} to .WhereComposite function of Query builder:

	// Get results where rating == 5 and year == 2010
	query := db.Query("items").WhereComposite("rating+year", reindexer.EQ,[]interface{}{5,2010})

All the fields in regular (non-fulltext) composite index must be indexed. I.e. to be able to create composite index rating+year, it is necessary to create some kind of indexes for both raiting and year first:

type Item struct {
	ID     int64 `reindex:"id,,pk"`
	Rating int   `reindex:"rating,-"` // this field must be indexed (using index type '-' in this example)
	Year   int   `reindex:"year"`     // this field must be indexed (using index type 'hash' in this example)
	_ struct{} `reindex:"rating+year,tree,composite"`
}

Aggregations

Reindexer allows to retrieve aggregated results. Currently Count, CountCached, Average, Sum, Minimum, Maximum, Facet and Distinct aggregations are supported.

In order to support aggregation, Query has methods AggregateAvg, AggregateSum, AggregateMin, AggregateMax , AggregateFacet and Distinct those should be called before the Query execution: this will ask reindexer to calculate data aggregations. Aggregation Facet is applicable to multiple data columns and the result of that could be sorted by any data column or ‘ count’ and cut off by offset and limit. In order to support this functionality method AggregateFacet returns AggregationFacetRequest which has methods Sort, Limit and Offset.

Queries with MERGE will apply aggregations from the main query to all the merged subqueries. Subqueries can not have their own aggregations. Available aggregations for MERGE-queries are: Count, CountCached, Sum, Min and Max.

To get aggregation results, Iterator has method AggResults: it is available after query execution and returns slice of results.

Example code for aggregate items by price and name

	query := db.Query("items")
	query.AggregateMax("price")
	query.AggregateFacet("name", "price").Sort("name", true).Sort("count", false).Offset(10).Limit(100)
	iterator := query.Exec()
	// Check the error
	if err := iterator.Error(); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	defer iterator.Close()

	aggMaxRes := iterator.AggResults()[0]

	if aggMaxRes.Value != nil {
		fmt.Printf ("max price = %d\n", *aggMaxRes.Value)
	} else {
		fmt.Println ("no data to aggregate")
	}

	aggFacetRes := iterator.AggResults()[1]

	fmt.Printf ("'name' 'price' -> count")
	for _, facet := range aggFacetRes.Facets {
		fmt.Printf ("'%s' '%s' -> %d", facet.Values[0], facet.Values[1], facet.Count)
	}

	query := db.Query("items")
	query.Distinct("name").Distinct("price")
	iterator := query.Exec()
	// Check the error
	if err := iterator.Error(); err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	defer iterator.Close()

	aggResults := iterator.AggResults()

	distNames := aggResults[0]
	fmt.Println ("names:")
	for _, name := range distNames.Distincts {
		fmt.Println(name)
	}

	distPrices := aggResults[1]
	fmt.Println ("prices:")
	for _, price := range distPrices.Distincts {
		fmt.Println(price)
	}

Sorting by aggregatedFACET’s fields has distinct syntax in it’s SQL version:

SELECT FACET(name, price ORDER BY "name" ASC, "count" DESC) FROM items

Search in array fields with matching array indexes

Reindexer allows to search data in array fields when matching values have same indexes positions. For instance, we’ve got an array of structures:

type Elem struct {
	F1 int `reindex:"f1"`
	F2 int `reindex:"f2"`
}

type A struct {
	Elems []Elem
}

Common attempt to search values in this array

db.Query("Namespace").Where("f1",EQ,1).Where("f2",EQ,2)

finds all items of array Elem[] where f1 is equal to 1 and f2 is equal to 2.

EqualPosition function allows to search in array fields with equal indexes. Queries like this:

db.Query("Namespace").Where("f1", reindexer.GE, 5).Where("f2", reindexer.EQ, 100).EqualPosition("f1", "f2")

or

SELECT * FROM Namespace WHERE f1 >= 5 AND f2 = 100 EQUAL_POSITION(f1,f2);

will find all the items of array Elem[] with equal array indexes where f1 is greater or equal to 5 and f2 is equal to 100 (for instance, query returned 5 items where only 3rd elements of both arrays have appropriate values).

With complex expressions (expressions with brackets) equal_position() could be within a bracket:

SELECT * FROM Namespace WHERE (f1 >= 5 AND f2 = 100 EQUAL_POSITION(f1,f2)) OR (f3 = 3 AND f4 < 4 AND f5 = 7 EQUAL_POSITION(f3,f4,f5));
SELECT * FROM Namespace WHERE (f1 >= 5 AND f2 = 100 AND f3 = 3 AND f4 < 4 EQUAL_POSITION(f1,f3) EQUAL_POSITION(f2,f4)) OR (f5 = 3 AND f6 < 4 AND f7 = 7 EQUAL_POSITION(f5,f7));
SELECT * FROM Namespace WHERE f1 >= 5 AND (f2 = 100 AND f3 = 3 AND f4 < 4 EQUAL_POSITION(f2,f3)) AND f5 = 3 AND f6 < 4 EQUAL_POSITION(f1,f5,f6);

equal_position doesn’t work with the following conditions: IS NULL, IS EMPTY and IN(with empty parameter list).

Atomic on update functions

There are atomic functions, which executes under namespace lock, and therefore guarantees data consistency:

These functions can be passed to Upsert/Insert/Update in 3-rd and next arguments.

If these functions are provided, the passed by reference item will be changed to updated value

	// set ID field from serial generator
	db.Insert ("items",&item,"id=serial()")

	// set current timestamp in nanoseconds to updated_at field
	db.Update ("items",&item,"updated_at=now(NSEC)")

	// set current timestamp and ID
	db.Upsert ("items",&item,"updated_at=now(NSEC)","id=serial()")

Expire Data from Namespace by Setting TTL

Data expiration is useful for some classes of information, including machine generated event data, logs, and session information that only need to persist for a limited period of time.

Reindexer makes it possible to set TTL (time to live) for Namespace items. Adding TtlIndex to Namespace automatically removes items after a specified number of seconds.

Ttl indexes work only with int64 fields and store UNIX timestamp data. Items containing ttl index expire after expire_after seconds. Example of declaring TtlIndex in Golang:

type NamespaceExample struct {
	ID   int    `reindex:"id,,pk" json:"id"`
	Date int64  `reindex:"date,ttl,,expire_after=3600" json:"date"`
}
...
	ns.Date = time.Now().Unix()

In this case items of namespace NamespaceExample expire in 3600 seconds after NamespaceExample.Date field value (which is UNIX timestamp).

A TTL index supports queries in the same way non-TTL indexes do.

Direct JSON operations

Upsert data in JSON format

If source data is available in JSON format, then it is possible to improve performance of Upsert/Delete operations by directly passing JSON to reindexer. JSON deserialization will be done by C++ code, without extra allocs/deserialization in Go code.

Upsert or Delete functions can process JSON just by passing []byte argument with json

	json := []byte (`{"id":1,"name":"test"}`)
	db.Upsert  ("items",json)

It is just faster equivalent of:

	item := &Item{}
	json.Unmarshal ([]byte (`{"id":1,"name":"test"}`),item)
	db.Upsert ("items",item)

Get Query results in JSON format

In case of requirement to serialize results of Query in JSON format, then it is possible to improve performance by directly obtaining results in JSON format from reindexer. JSON serialization will be done by C++ code, without extra allocs/serialization in Go code.

...
	iterator := db.Query("items").
		Select ("id","name").        // Filter output JSON: Select only "id" and "name" fields of items, another fields will be omitted. This fields should be specified in the same case as the jsonpaths corresponding to them.
		Limit (1).
		ExecToJson ("root_object")   // Name of root object of output JSON

	json,err := iterator.FetchAll()
	// Check the error
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	fmt.Printf ("%s\n",string (json))
...

This code will print something like:

{ "root_object": [{ "id": 1, "name": "test" }] }

Using object cache

To avoid race conditions, by default object cache is turned off and all objects are allocated and deserialized from reindexer internal format (called CJSON) per each query. The deserialization is uses reflection, so its speed is not optimal (in fact CJSON deserialization is ~3-10x faster than JSON, and ~1.2x faster than GOB), but performance is still seriously limited by reflection overhead.

There are 2 ways to enable object cache:

DeepCopy interface

If object is implements DeepCopy interface, then reindexer will turn on object cache and use DeepCopy interface to copy objects from cache to query results. The DeepCopy interface is responsible to make deep copy of source object.

Here is sample of DeepCopy interface implementation

func (item *Item) DeepCopy () interface {} {
	copyItem := &Item{
		ID: item.ID,
		Name: item.Name,
		Articles: make ([]int,cap (item.Articles),len (item.Articles)),
		Year: item.Year,
	}
	copy (copyItem.Articles,item.Articles)
	return copyItem
}

Get shared objects from object cache (USE WITH CAUTION)

To speed up queries and do not allocate new objects per each query it is possible ask query return objects directly from object cache. For enable this behavior, call AllowUnsafe(true) on Iterator.

WARNING: when used AllowUnsafe(true) queries returns shared pointers to structs in object cache. Therefore, application MUST NOT modify returned objects.

	res, err := db.Query("items").WhereInt ("id",reindexer.EQ,1).Exec().AllowUnsafe(true).FetchAll()
	if err != nil {
		panic (err)
	}

	if len (res) > 1 {
		// item is SHARED pointer to struct in object cache
		item = res[0].(*Item)

		// It's OK - fmt.Printf will not modify item
		fmt.Printf ("%v",item)

		// It's WRONG - can race, and will corrupt data in object cache
		item.Name = "new name"
	}

Limit size of object cache

By default, maximum size of object cache is 256000 items for each namespace. To change maximum size use ObjCacheSize method of NamespaceOptions, passed to OpenNamespace. e.g.

	// Set object cache limit to 4096 items
	db.OpenNamespace("items_with_huge_cache", reindexer.DefaultNamespaceOptions().ObjCacheSize(4096), Item{})

!This cache should not be used for the namespaces, which were replicated from the other nodes: it may be inconsistent for those replica’s namespaces.

Geometry

The only supported geometry data type is 2D point, which implemented in Golang as [2]float64 (reindexer.Point).

In SQL, a point can be created as ST_GeomFromText('point(1 -3)').

The only supported request for geometry field is to find all points within a distance from a point. DWithin(field_name, point, distance) as on example below.

Corresponding SQL function is ST_DWithin(field_name, point, distance).

RTree index can be created for points. To do so, rtree and linear, quadratic, greene or rstar tags should be declared. linear, quadratic, greene or rstar means which algorithm of RTree construction would be used. Here algorithms are listed in order from optimized for insertion to optimized for search. But it depends on data. Test which is more appropriate for you. Default algorithm is rstar.

type Item struct {
	id              int               `reindex:"id,,pk"`
	pointIndexed    reindexer.Point `reindex:"point_indexed,rtree,linear"`
	pointNonIndexed reindexer.Point `json:"point_non_indexed"`
}

query1 := db.Query("items").DWithin("point_indexed", reindexer.Point{-1.0, 1.0}, 4.0)

SELECT * FROM items WHERE ST_DWithin(point_non_indexed, ST_GeomFromText('point(1 -3.5)'), 5.0);

Logging, debug, profiling and tracing

Turn on logger

Reindexer logger can be turned on by db.SetLogger() method, just like in this snippet of code:

type Logger struct {
}
func (Logger) Printf(level int, format string, msg ...interface{}) {
	log.Printf(format, msg...)
}
...
	db.SetLogger (Logger{})

Slow actions logging

Reindexer supports logging of slow actions. It can be configured via profiling.long_queries_logging section of the #config system namespace. The logging of next actions can be configured:

Debug queries

Another useful feature is debug print of processed Queries. To debug print queries details there are 2 methods:

Custom allocators support

Reindexer has support for TCMalloc (which is also a part of GPerfTools) and JEMalloc allocators (check ENABLE_TCMALLOC and ENABLE_JEMALLOC in CMakeLists.txt).

If you have built standalone server from sources available allocators will be detected and used automatically.

In go:generate builds and prebuilt packages reindexer has TCMalloc support, however none of TCMalloc libraries will be linked automatically. To force allocator’s libraries linkage LD_PRELOAD with required library has to be used:

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcmalloc_and_profiler.so ./my_executable

Custom allocator may be handy to track memory consummation, profile heap/CPU or to improve general performance.

Profiling

Heap profiling

Because reindexer core is written in C++ all calls to reindexer and their memory consumption are not visible for go profiler. To profile reindexer core there are cgo profiler available. cgo profiler now is part of reindexer, but it can be used with any another cgo code.

Usage of cgo profiler is very similar with usage of go profiler.

  1. Add import:
import _ "github.com/restream/reindexer/v3/pprof"
  1. If your application is not already running an http server, you need to start one. Add “net/http” and “log” to your imports and the following code to your main function:
go func() {
	log.Println(http.ListenAndServe("localhost:6060", nil))
}()
  1. Run application with environment variable HEAPPROFILE=/tmp/pprof
  2. Then use the pprof tool to look at the heap profile:
pprof -symbolize remote http://localhost:6060/debug/cgo/pprof/heap

CPU profiling

Internal Reindexer’s profiler is based on gperf_tools library and unable to get CPU profile via Go runtime. However, go profiler may be used with symbolizer to retrieve C++ CPU usage.

  1. Add import:
import _ "net/http/pprof"
  1. If your application is not already running an http server, you need to start one. Add “net/http” and “log” to your imports and the following code to your main function:
go func() {
	log.Println(http.ListenAndServe("localhost:6060", nil))
}()
  1. Run application with environment variable REINDEXER_CGOBACKTRACE=1
  2. Then use the pprof tool to get CPU profile:
pprof -symbolize remote http://localhost:6060/debug/pprof/profile?seconds=10

Known profiling issues

Due to internal Golang’s specific it’s not recommended to try to get CPU and heap profiles simultaneously, because it may cause deadlock inside the profiler.

Tracing

Go binding for Reindexer comes with optional support for OpenTelemetry integration.

To enable generation of OpenTelemetry tracing spans for all exported client side calls (OpenNamespace, Upsert, etc), pass reindexer.WithOpenTelemetry() option when creating a Reindexer DB instance:

db := reindexer.NewReindex("cproto://user:pass@127.0.0.1:6534/testdb", reindexer.WithOpenTelemetry())

All client side calls on the db instance will generate OpenTelemetry spans with the name of the performed operation and information about Reindexer DSN, namespace name (if applicable), etc.

For example, a call like this on the db instance above:

db.OpenNamespace("items", reindexer.DefaultNamespaceOptions(), Item{})

will generate an OpenTelemetry span with the span name of Reindexer.OpenNamespace and with span attributes like this:

Use opentelemetry-go in your client go application to export the information externally. For example, as a minimum, you will need to configure OpenTelemetry SDK exporter to expose the generated spans externally (see the Getting Started guide for more information).
