Forcibly promotes the integer argument to 64-bit type, and does nothing on floating point argument. It's intended to help enforce evaluation of certain expressions (such as a*b) in 64-bit mode even though all the arguments are 32-bit.

Forcibly promotes given argument to floating point type. Intended to help enforce evaluation of numeric JSON fields.

Forcibly promotes given argument to 64-bit signed type. Intended to help enforce evaluation of numeric JSON fields.

Forcibly promotes the argument to string type

Forcibly reinterprets given argument to 64-bit unsigned type.

Forcibly reinterprets its 32-bit unsigned integer argument as signed, and also expands it to 64-bit type (because 32-bit type is unsigned). It's easily illustrated by the following example: 1-2 normally evaluates to 4294967295, but SINT(1-2) evaluates to -1.

CONTAINS(polygon, x, y) checks whether the (x,y) point is within the given polygon, and returns 1 if true, or 0 if false. The polygon has to be specified using either the POLY2D() function. The former function is intended for "small" polygons, meaning less than 500 km (300 miles) a side, and it doesn't take into account the Earth's curvature for speed. For larger distances, you should use GEOPOLY2D, which tessellates the given polygon in smaller parts, accounting for the Earth's curvature.

IF() behavior is slightly different than its MySQL counterpart. It takes 3 arguments, checks whether the 1st argument is equal to 0.0, returns the 2nd argument if it is not zero or the 3rd one when it is. Note that unlike comparison operators, IF() does not use a threshold! Therefore, it's safe to use comparison results as its 1st argument, but arithmetic operators might produce unexpected results. For instance, the following two calls will produce different results even though they are logically equivalent:

IF ( sqrt(3)*sqrt(3)-3<>0, a, b )
IF ( sqrt(3)*sqrt(3)-3, a, b )

In the first case, the comparison operator <> will return 0.0 (false) because of a threshold, and IF() will always return ** as a result. In the second one, the same sqrt(3)*sqrt(3)-3 expression will be compared with zero without threshold by the IF() function itself. But its value will be slightly different from zero because of limited floating point calculations precision. Because of that, the comparison with 0.0 done by IF() will not pass, and the second variant will return 'a' as a result.

IN(expr,val1,val2,...) takes 2 or more arguments, and returns 1 if 1st argument (expr) is equal to any of the other arguments (val1..valN), or 0 otherwise. Currently, all the checked values (but not the expression itself!) are required to be constant. The constants are pre-sorted and then binary search is used, so IN() even against a big arbitrary list of constants will be very quick. First argument can also be an MVA attribute. In that case, IN() will return 1 if any of the MVA values is equal to any of the other arguments. IN() also supports IN(expr,@uservar) syntax to check whether the value belongs to the list in the given global user variable. First argument can be JSON attribute.

INDEXOF(cond FOR var IN json.array) function iterates through all elements in array and returns index of first element for which 'cond' is true and -1 if 'cond' is false for every element in array.

INTERVAL(expr,point1,point2,point3,...), takes 2 or more arguments, and returns the index of the argument that is less than the first argument: it returns 0 if expr<point1, 1 if point1<=expr<point2, and so on. It is required that point1<point2<...<pointN for this function to work correctly.

LENGTH(attr_mva) function returns amount of elements in MVA set. It works with both 32-bit and 64-bit MVA attributes. LENGTH(attr_json) returns length of a field in JSON. Return value depends on type of a field. For example LENGTH(json_attr.some_int) always returns 1 and LENGTH(json_attr.some_array) returns number of elements in array. LENGTH(string_expr) function returns the length of the string resulted from an expression. TO_STRING() must enclose the expression, regardless if the expression returns a non-string or it's simply a string attribute.

REMAP(condition, expression, (cond1, cond2, ...), (expr1, expr2, ...)) function allows you to make some exceptions of an expression values depending on condition values. Condition expression should always result integer, expression can result in integer or float.

Example:

SELECT id, size, REMAP(size, 15, (5,6,7,8), (1,1,2,2)) s
FROM products
ORDER BY s ASC;

This will put documents with sizes 5 and 6 first, lower will go sizes 7 an 8. In case there's an original value not listed in the array (e.g. size 10) it will be defaulted to 15 and in this case will be put to the end.

More examples:

SELECT REMAP(userid, karmapoints, (1, 67), (999, 0)) FROM users;
SELECT REMAP(id%10, salary, (0), (0.0)) FROM employes;

GEODIST(lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2, \[...\]) function computes geosphere distance between two given points specified by their coordinates. Note that by default both latitudes and longitudes must be in radians and the result will be in meters. You can use arbitrary expression as any of the four coordinates. An optimized path will be selected when one pair of the arguments refers directly to a pair attributes and the other one is constant.

GEODIST() also takes an optional 5th argument that lets you easily convert between input and output units, and pick the specific geodistance formula to use. The complete syntax and a few examples are as follows:

GEODIST(lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2, { option=value, ... })

GEODIST(40.7643929, -73.9997683, 40.7642578, -73.9994565, {in=degrees, out=feet})

GEODIST(51.50, -0.12, 29.98, 31.13, {in=deg, out=mi})

The known options and their values are:

• in = {deg | degrees | rad | radians}, specifies the input units;
• out = {m | meters | km | kilometers | ft | feet | mi | miles}, specifies the output units;
• method = {adaptive | haversine}, specifies the geodistance calculation method.

The default method is "adaptive". It is well optimized implementation that is both more precise and much faster at all times than "haversine".

GEOPOLY2D(lat1,lon1,lat2,lon2,lat3,lon3...) produces a polygon to be used with the CONTAINS() function. This function takes into account the Earth's curvature by tessellating the polygon into smaller ones, and should be used for larger areas. For small areas POLY2D() function can be used instead. The function expects coordinates to be pairs of latitude/longitude coordinates in degrees, if radians are used it will give same result as POLY2D().

POLY2D(x1,y1,x2,y2,x3,y3...) produces a polygon to be used with the CONTAINS() function. This polygon assumes a flat Earth, so it should not be too large; for large areas the GEOPOLY2D() function which takes Earth's curvature in consideration should be used.
