Tablestore:Range query

Prerequisites

• An OTSClient instance is initialized. For more information, see Initialize an OTSClient instance.

• A data table is created and data is written to the data table. For more information, see Create data tables and Write data.

• A search index is created for the data table. For more information, see Create a search index.

Parameters

Examples

The following sample code provides an example on how to query the rows in which the value of the Col_Long column is greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10 in a table. In this example, the rows that meet the query conditions are returned in descending order based on the value of the Col_Long column.

/**
 * Search the table for rows in which the value of the Col_Long column ranges from 1 to 10, and the range includes 1 but excludes 10. Tablestore sorts these rows by the value of the Col_Long column in descending order. 
 */
client.search({
    tableName: TABLE_NAME,
    indexName: INDEX_NAME,
    searchQuery: {
        offset: 0,
        limit: 10, // To query only the number of rows that meet the query conditions without specific data, set the limit parameter to 0. 
        query: { // Set the query type to TableStore.QueryType.RANGE_QUERY. 
            queryType: TableStore.QueryType.RANGE_QUERY,
            query: {
                fieldName: "Col_Long",
                rangeFrom: 1,
                includeLower: true, // Include the value of rangeFrom in the range. 
                rangeTo: 10,
                includeUpper: false // Exclude the value of rangeTo from the range. 
            }
        },
        getTotalCount: true // Specify whether to return the total number of rows that meet the query conditions. Default value: false. 
    },
    columnToGet: { // Specify the columns that you want to return. You can set the parameter to RETURN_SPECIFIED to return the specified columns, RETURN_ALL to return all columns, RETURN_ALL_FROM_INDEX to return all columns in the search index, or RETURN_NONE to return only the primary key columns. 
        returnType: TableStore.ColumnReturnType.RETURN_ALL
    }
}, function (err, data) {
    if (err) {
        console.log('error:', err);
        return;
    }
    console.log('success:', JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));
});

FAQ

References

• The following query types are supported by search indexes: term query, terms query, match all query, match query, match phrase query, prefix query, range query, wildcard query, Boolean query, geo query, nested query, vector query, and exists query. You can select a query type to query data based on your business requirements.

  If you want to sort or paginate the rows that meet the query conditions, you can use the sorting and paging feature. For more information, see Sorting and paging.

  If you want to collapse the result set based on a specific column, you can use the collapse (distinct) feature. This way, data of the specified type appears only once in the query results. For more information, see Collapse (distinct).

• If you want to analyze data in a data table, such as obtaining the extreme values, sum, and total number of rows, you can perform aggregation operations or execute SQL statements. For more information, see Aggregation and SQL query.

• If you want to quickly obtain all rows that meet the query conditions without the need to sort the rows, you can call the ParallelScan and ComputeSplits operations to use the parallel scan feature. For more information, see Parallel scan.
