Piotr Sarna cf30d4cbcf Merge 'Secondary index of collection columns' from Nadav Har'El
This pull request introduces global secondary-indexing for non-frozen collections.

The intent is to enable such queries:

```
CREATE TABLE test(int id, somemap map<int, int>, somelist<int>, someset<int>, PRIMARY KEY(id));
CREATE INDEX ON test(keys(somemap));
CREATE INDEX ON test(values(somemap));
CREATE INDEX ON test(entries(somemap));
CREATE INDEX ON test(values(somelist));
CREATE INDEX ON test(values(someset));

-- index on test(c) is the same as index on (values(c))
CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS ON test(somelist);
CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS ON test(someset);
CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS ON test(somemap);

SELECT * FROM test WHERE someset CONTAINS 7;
SELECT * FROM test WHERE somelist CONTAINS 7;
SELECT * FROM test WHERE somemap CONTAINS KEY 7;
SELECT * FROM test WHERE somemap CONTAINS 7;
SELECT * FROM test WHERE somemap[7] = 7;
```

We use here all-familiar materialized views (MVs). Scylla treats all the
collections the same way - they're a list of pairs (key, value). In case
of sets, the value type is dummy one. In case of lists, the key type is
TIMEUUID. When describing the design, I will forget that there is more
than one collection type.  Suppose that the columns in the base table
were as follows:

```
pkey int, ckey1 int, ckey2 int, somemap map<int, text>, PRIMARY KEY(pkey, ckey1, ckey2)
```

The MV schema is as follows (the names of columns which are not the same
as in base might be different). All the columns here form the primary
key.

```
-- for index over entries
indexed_coll (int, text), idx_token long, pkey int, ckey1 int, ckey2 int
-- for index over keys
indexed_coll int, idx_token long, pkey int, ckey1 int, ckey2 int
-- for index over values
indexed_coll text, idx_token long, pkey int, ckey1 int, ckey2 int, coll_keys_for_values_index int
```

The reason for the last additional column is that the values from a collection might not be unique.

Fixes #2962
Fixes #8745
Fixes #10707

This patch does not implement **local** secondary indexes for collection columns: Refs #10713.

Closes #10841

ScyllaDB Documentation

This repository contains the source files for ScyllaDB Open Source documentation.

  • The dev folder contains developer-oriented documentation related to the ScyllaDB code base. It is not published and is only available via GitHub.
  • All other folders and files contain user-oriented documentation related to ScyllaDB Open Source and are sources for docs.scylladb.com.

To report a documentation bug or suggest an improvement, open an issue in GitHub issues for this project.

To contribute to the documentation, open a GitHub pull request.

Key Guidelines for Contributors

Creating Knowledge Base Articles

The kb/ directory holds source files for knowledge base articles in the Knowledge Base section of the ScyllaDB documentation.

The kb/kb_common subdirectory contains a template for knowledge base articles to help you create new articles.

To create a new knowledge base article (KB):

  1. Copy the kb-article-template.rst file from /kb/kb_common to /kb and rename it with a unique name.
  2. Open the new file and fill in the required information.
  3. Remove what is not needed.
  4. Run make preview to build the docs and preview them locally.
  5. Send a PR with "KB" in its title.

Building User Documentation

Prerequisites

  • Python 3. Check your version with $ python --version.

Mac OS X

You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.

You also need the standard utility make.

Check if you have these two items with the following commands:

brew help
make -h

Linux Distributions

Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.

Windows

Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.

Building the Docs

  1. Run make preview to build the documentation.
  2. Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.

Cleanup

You can clean up all the build products and auto-installed Python stuff with:

make pristine

Information for Contributors

If you are interested in contributing to Scylla docs, please read the Scylla open source page at http://www.scylladb.com/opensource/ and complete a Scylla contributor agreement if needed. We can only accept documentation pull requests if we have a contributor agreement on file for you.
