User-Defined Functions (UDFs)

Java and Scala UDFs are currently supported. Use the CREATE FUNCTION command to create a function that can execute code from a JAR.

Step 1: Upload code​

Upload your code as a JAR file in the Onehouse console under Settings > Project Settings > Integrations > Manage JARs. When you upload the JAR, Onehouse will add it to your cloud storage bucket under the path:

onehouse-customer-bucket-<REQUEST_ID_PREFIX>/hudi_configs/custom_jar/jar_name.jar

Step 2: Restart SQL Cluster(s)​

Restart your SQL Cluster(s) to automatically add the new JARs to the Clusters' classpath. You can do this from the Cluster page in the Onehouse console. Note that triggering a Cluster restart will kill all in-progress queries.

sql_cluster_restart

Step 3: Create the funciton​

Now, you create a UDF referencing the JAR files in your SQL queries.

Syntax:

CREATE [ OR REPLACE ] [ TEMPORARY ] FUNCTION [ IF NOT EXISTS ]
    function_name AS class_name [ resource_locations ]

Example:

--Create the UDF by referenceing your JAR file
CREATE FUNCTION simple_udf AS 'SimpleUdf'
    USING JAR 's3a://onehouse-customer-bucket-12345/hudi_configs/custom_jar/SimpleUdf.jar';

--Invoke the UDF
SELECT simple_udf(c1) AS function_return_value FROM test;
