Use when the user wants to run SQL — especially analytical SQL — on local files (parquet/csv/json), URLs, S3 paths, or remote databases (Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, ClickHouse Cloud, Iceberg, Delta Lake) without setting up a server. Provides chDB — embedded ClickHouse SQL in Python with 1000+ functions, Session for stateful multi-step pipelines, parametrized queries, and cross-source joins via `s3()`, `mysql()`, `postgresql()`, `iceberg()`, `deltaLake()`, `remoteSecure()` table functions. TRIGGER when: user wants SQL on parquet/csv/files or across remote analytical sources; uses ClickHouse SQL features (window functions, windowFunnel, geoToH3, JSON path ops, Session, parametrized queries); imports `chdb` or calls `chdb.query()`. SKIP this skill for pandas-style DataFrame method-chaining (use chdb-datastore instead) or ClickHouse server administration.

chdb SQL — ClickHouse in Your Python Process

Run ClickHouse SQL directly in Python — no server needed. Query local files, remote databases, and cloud storage with full ClickHouse SQL power.

bash
pip install chdb

Decision Tree: Pick the Right API

1. One-off query on files or databases → chdb.query()
2. Multi-step analysis with tables → Session
3. DB-API 2.0 connection → chdb.connect()
4. Pandas-style DataFrame operations → Use chdb-datastore skill instead

chdb.query() — One Line, Any Data

python
import chdb
chdb.query("SELECT * FROM file('data.parquet', Parquet) WHERE price > 100 LIMIT 10") # local files
chdb.query("SELECT * FROM mysql('db:3306', 'shop', 'orders', 'root', 'pass')") # databases
chdb.query("SELECT * FROM s3('s3://bucket/data.parquet', NOSIGN) LIMIT 10") # cloud storage
chdb.query("SELECT * FROM deltaLake('s3://bucket/delta/table', NOSIGN) LIMIT 10") # data lakes
# Cross-source join
chdb.query("""
SELECT u.name, o.amount FROM mysql('db:3306', 'crm', 'users', 'root', 'pass') AS u
JOIN file('orders.parquet', Parquet) AS o ON u.id = o.user_id ORDER BY o.amount DESC
""")
data = {"name": ["Alice", "Bob"], "score": [95, 87]}
chdb.query("SELECT * FROM Python(data) ORDER BY score DESC") # Python data
df = chdb.query("SELECT * FROM numbers(10)", "DataFrame") # output formats
chdb.query("SELECT toDate({d:String}) + number FROM numbers({n:UInt64})",
"DataFrame", params={"d": "2025-01-01", "n": 30}) # parametrized

Session — Stateful Analysis Pipelines

python
from chdb import session as chs
sess = chs.Session("./analytics_db") # persistent; Session() for in-memory
sess.query("CREATE TABLE users ENGINE=MergeTree() ORDER BY id AS SELECT * FROM mysql('db:3306','crm','users','root','pass')")
sess.query("CREATE TABLE events ENGINE=MergeTree() ORDER BY (ts,user_id) AS SELECT * FROM s3('s3://logs/events/*.parquet',NOSIGN)")
sess.query("""
SELECT u.country, count() AS cnt, uniqExact(e.user_id) AS users
FROM events e JOIN users u ON e.user_id = u.id
WHERE e.ts >= today() - 7 GROUP BY u.country ORDER BY cnt DESC
""", "Pretty").show()
sess.close()

Connection API (DB-API 2.0)

python
from chdb import dbapi
conn = dbapi.connect()
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute("SELECT * FROM file('data.parquet', Parquet) WHERE value > 100")
print(cur.fetchall())
cur.close()
conn.close()

Troubleshooting

ProblemFix
ImportError: No module named 'chdb'pip install chdb
DB::Exception: FILE_NOT_FOUNDCheck file path; use absolute path or verify cwd
DB::Exception: Unknown table functionCheck function name spelling (e.g., deltaLake not deltalake)
Connection refused to remote DBCheck host:port format; ensure remote DB allows connections
Environment checkRun python agent/skills/chdb-sql/scripts/verify_install.py
