Sequence 存储引擎

本文介绍了 Sequence 存储引擎。有关序列对象的详细信息,请参阅序列

Sequence 引擎允许创建具有给定起始值、结束值和增量的升序或降序数字序列(正整数)。

当您需要时,它会自动创建完全虚拟的、短暂的表。没有办法显式地创建 Sequence 表。它们也不会写入磁盘或创建 .frm 文件。它们是只读的,支持事务,并且支持 XA

安装

Sequence 引擎默认安装,SHOW ENGINES 将列出支持的 Sequence 存储引擎:

SHOW ENGINES\G
...
*************************** 5. row ***************************
      Engine: MyISAM
     Support: YES
     Comment: MyISAM storage engine

          XA: NO
  Savepoints: NO
*************************** 6. row ***************************
      Engine: SEQUENCE

     Support: YES

用法和示例

要使用 Sequence 表,您只需从中进行选择,如下所示

SELECT * FROM seq_1_to_5;
+-----+
| seq |
+-----+
|   1 |
|   2 |
|   3 |
|   4 |
|   5 |
+-----+

要在语句中使用序列,您需要从以模式 seq_FROM_to_TOseq_FROM_to_TO_step_STEP 命名的表中进行选择。

对于奇数步长,序列将从 FROM 开始,并在达到 TO 前的最终结果结束。

SELECT * FROM seq_1_to_15_step_3;
+-----+
| seq |
+-----+
|   1 |
|   4 |
|   7 |
|  10 |
|  13 |
+-----+

序列也可以向后移动。在这种情况下,最终值将始终是 TO 值,因此降序序列与升序序列具有相同的值:

SELECT * FROM seq_5_to_1_step_2;
+-----+
| seq |
+-----+
|   5 |
|   3 |
|   1 |
+-----+
SELECT * FROM seq_15_to_1_step_3;
+-----+
| seq |
+-----+
|  13 |
|  10 |
|   7 |
|   4 |
|   1 |
+-----+
SELECT * FROM seq_15_to_2_step_3;
+-----+
| seq |
+-----+
|  14 |
|  11 |
|   8 |
|   5 |
|   2 |
+-----+

这个引擎在连接和子查询中特别有用。例如,此查询查找所有小于50的素数:

SELECT seq FROM seq_2_to_50 s1 WHERE 0 NOT IN
     (SELECT s1.seq % s2.seq FROM seq_2_to_50 s2 WHERE s2.seq <= sqrt(s1.seq));
+-----+
| seq |
+-----+
|   2 |
|   3 |
|   5 |
|   7 |
|  11 |
|  13 |
|  17 |
|  19 |
|  23 |
|  29 |
|  31 |
|  37 |
|  41 |
|  43 |
|  47 |
+-----+

并且几乎(除了2,唯一的偶素数)使用连接得到相同的结果:

SELECT s1.seq FROM seq_2_to_50 s1 JOIN seq_2_to_50 s2 
  WHERE s1.seq > s2.seq AND s1.seq % s2.seq <> 0 
  GROUP BY s1.seq HAVING s1.seq - COUNT(*) = 2;
+-----+
| seq |
+-----+
|   3 |
|   5 |
|   7 |
|  11 |
|  13 |
|  17 |
|  19 |
|  23 |
|  29 |
|  31 |
|  37 |
|  41 |
|  43 |
|  47 |
+-----+

序列表在日期计算中也很有用。例如,要查找在40年期间特定日期所在的星期几(也许是为了提前计划生日!):

SELECT DAYNAME('1980-12-05' + INTERVAL (seq) YEAR) day,
    '1980-12-05' + INTERVAL (seq) YEAR date FROM seq_0_to_40;
+-----------+------------+
| day       | date       |
+-----------+------------+
| Friday    | 1980-12-05 |
| Saturday  | 1981-12-05 |
| Sunday    | 1982-12-05 |
...
| Friday    | 2014-12-05 |
| Saturday  | 2015-12-05 |
| Monday    | 2016-12-05 |
| Tuesday   | 2017-12-05 |
| Wednesday | 2018-12-05 |
| Thursday  | 2019-12-05 |
| Saturday  | 2020-12-05 |
+-----------+------------+

虽然序列表只能直接使用正整数,但它们可以间接地利用 CAST 语句返回负结果。例如:

SELECT CAST(seq AS INT) - 5 x FROM seq_5_to_1;
+----+
| x  |
+----+
|  0 |
| -1 |
| -2 |
| -3 |
| -4 |
+----+

需要使用 CAST 来避免出现 BIGINT UNSIGNED value is out of range 错误。

虽然序列表是虚拟的,但它们仍然是表,因此它们必须在数据库中。这意味着必须选择默认数据库(例如,通过 USE 命令)才能查询序列表。不能将 information_schema 数据库用作序列表的默认值。

表名冲突

如果安装了 SEQUENCE 存储引擎,则不可能创建一个遵循 SEQUENCE 模式命名的表:

CREATE TABLE seq_1_to_100 (col INT) ENGINE = InnoDB;
ERROR 1050 (42S01): Table 'seq_1_to_100' already exists

但是,SEQUENCE 表可以转换为另一个引擎,并且可以在任何语句中引用新表:

ALTER TABLE seq_1_to_100 ENGINE = BLACKHOLE;

SELECT * FROM seq_1_to_100;
Empty set (0.00 sec)

虽然无法删除 SEQUENCE 表,但是可以删除转换后的表。具有相同名称的 SEQUENCE 表仍将存在:

DROP TABLE seq_1_to_100;

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM seq_1_to_100;
+----------+
| COUNT(*) |
+----------+
|      100 |
+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

始终可以创建并使用类似于 SEQUENCE 的临时表:

CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE seq_1_to_100 (col INT) ENGINE = InnoDB;

SELECT * FROM seq_1_to_100;
Empty set (0.00 sec)
