About clickhouse_scanner

The ClickHouse extension attaches a ClickHouse server, or ClickHouse Cloud, as a DuckDB database. Tables are read and written with ordinary DuckDB SQL over ClickHouse's native protocol, with TLS. Filters, projections and LIMITs are pushed down to ClickHouse.

Features include:

• ATTACH support for ClickHouse databases, including secrets for credentials
• reads from attached schemas and tables, including joins with local data
• writes with INSERT, COPY, CREATE TABLE, UPDATE and DELETE
• clickhouse_query and clickhouse_execute for ClickHouse SQL that DuckDB cannot express
• clickhouse_scan to read one table without attaching a database
