# ClickHouse Optimizer

A robust CLI tool for incrementally optimizing all partitions of ClickHouse tables. Optimize large tables efficiently by processing partitions sequentially with comprehensive progress tracking and merge monitoring.

## 🚀 Why ClickHouse Optimizer?

ClickHouse tables can accumulate many small parts over time, degrading query performance. The `OPTIMIZE TABLE` command typically processes all partitions at once, which can:

- **Overwhelm system resources** on large tables
- **Block other operations** during optimization
- **Fail on timeout** without completing any work
- **Provide no visibility** into progress

If you generate a file with a list of partitions to optimize, you can run the `OPTIMIZE TABLE` command manually. However, this approach is error-prone, failing when the `OPTIMIZE TABLE` command times out, and can be time-consuming.

This tool solves these problems by:

- ✅ **Processing partitions sequentially** to manage resource usage
- ✅ **Monitoring merge completion** with real-time progress bars
- ✅ **Graceful timeout handling** - continues with next partition if one times out
- ✅ **Rich console output** with ETA calculations

## 📦 Installation

### pip

```bash
pip install clickhouse-optimizer
```

### uvx (no install needed)

```bash
uvx clickhouse-optimizer --help
```

### Docker

```bash
docker pull gavinmroy/clickhouse-optimizer
```

## 🔧 Quick Start

### Basic Usage

```bash
# Optimize all partitions of a table
clickhouse-optimizer --host ch.example.com --user admin --password secret --database mydb mytable

# Run with verbose logging to see detailed progress
clickhouse-optimizer --verbose --host ch.example.com --user admin --password secret --database mydb mytable
```

### Environment Variables

Set connection parameters via environment variables:

```bash
export CLICKHOUSE_HOST=ch.example.com
export CLICKHOUSE_USER=admin
export CLICKHOUSE_PASSWORD=secret
export CLICKHOUSE_DATABASE=mydb

clickhouse-optimizer mytable
```

### Docker

```bash
# Using CLI arguments
docker run --rm gavinmroy/clickhouse-optimizer \
  --host ch.example.com --user admin --password secret \
  --database mydb mytable

# Using environment variables
docker run --rm \
  -e CLICKHOUSE_HOST=ch.example.com \
  -e CLICKHOUSE_USER=admin \
  -e CLICKHOUSE_PASSWORD=secret \
  -e CLICKHOUSE_DATABASE=mydb \
  gavinmroy/clickhouse-optimizer mytable
```

### Advanced Options

```bash
# Custom timeouts and polling intervals
clickhouse-optimizer \
  --optimize-timeout 7200 \
  --poll-interval 10 \
  mytable
```

## 📋 Command Reference

| Option | Environment Variable | Description | Default |
|--------|---------------------|-------------|---------|
| `--host` | `CLICKHOUSE_HOST` | ClickHouse server hostname | Required |
| `--port` | `CLICKHOUSE_PORT` | ClickHouse server port | 9440 |
| `--database` | `CLICKHOUSE_DATABASE` | Database name | Required |
| `--user` | `CLICKHOUSE_USER` | Username for authentication | Required |
| `--password` | `CLICKHOUSE_PASSWORD` | Password for authentication | Required |
| `--secure` | `CLICKHOUSE_SECURE` | Use secure connection | False |
| `--verbose` | `CLICKHOUSE_VERBOSE` | Enable verbose logging | False |
| `--optimize-timeout` | `CLICKHOUSE_OPTIMIZE_TIMEOUT` | Max seconds to wait for merges | 43200 (12h) |
| `--poll-interval` | `CLICKHOUSE_POLL_INTERVAL` | Seconds between status checks | 5 |

## 🏗️ How It Works

1. **Discovery**: Queries `system.parts` to find all active partitions
2. **Sequential Processing**: Optimizes one partition at a time
3. **Merge Monitoring**: Tracks merge progress via `system.merges`
4. **Progress Display**: Shows completion status with Rich progress bars
5. **Fault Tolerance**: Continues with next partition if one times out

## 🎯 Use Cases

### Large Production Tables
Perfect for tables with hundreds of partitions where full optimization would be too resource-intensive.

### Maintenance Windows
Ideal for scheduled optimization during low-traffic periods with predictable progress tracking.

### Performance Recovery
Quickly improve query performance on tables with many small parts without system overload.

### Safe Operations
Monitor optimization progress with detailed logging and progress tracking.

## 📊 Architecture

This tool follows a clean, modular architecture:

- **Settings**: Pydantic-based configuration with automatic CLI parsing
- **Optimizer**: Core business logic with progress tracking and error handling
- **CLI**: Minimal entry point with Rich console formatting

The optimizer discovers partitions, processes them sequentially, and monitors merge completion through ClickHouse system tables.
