`taos-jdbcdriver` is the official Java connector for TDengine. Java developers can use it to develop applications that access data in TDengine. `taos-jdbcdriver` implements standard JDBC driver interfaces and two connection methods: One is **native connection**, which connects to TDengine instances natively through the TDengine client driver (taosc), supporting data writing, querying, subscriptions, schemaless writing, and bind interface. The second is **REST connection** which is implemented through taosAdapter. The set of features implemented by the REST connection differs slightly from those implemented by the native connection.

![TDengine Database Connector Java](tdengine-jdbc-connector.webp)

The preceding figure shows the two ways in which a Java application can access TDengine.

- JDBC native connection: Java applications use TSDBDriver on physical node 1 (pnode1) to call client-driven directly (`libtaos.so` or `taos.dll`) APIs to send writing and query requests to taosd instances located on physical node 2 (pnode2).
- JDBC REST connection: The Java application encapsulates the SQL as a REST request via RestfulDriver, sends it to the REST server (taosAdapter) on physical node 2. taosAdapter forwards the request to TDengine server and returns the result.

The REST connection, which does not rely on TDengine client drivers, is more convenient and flexible, in addition to being cross-platform. However the performance is about 30% lower than that of the native connection.

:::info
TDengine's JDBC driver implementation is as consistent as possible with the relational database driver. Still, there are differences in the use scenarios and technical characteristics of TDengine and relational object databases. So 'taos-jdbcdriver' also has some differences from traditional JDBC drivers. It is important to keep the following points in mind:

- TDengine does not currently support delete operations for individual data records.
- Transactional operations are not currently supported.

:::

## Supported platforms

Native connections are supported on the same platforms as the TDengine client driver.
REST connection supports all platforms that can run Java.

**Note**: adding `batchfetch` to the REST connection and setting it to true will enable the WebSocket connection.

### Handling exceptions

After an error is reported, the error message and error code can be obtained through SQLException.

```java
try (Statement statement = connection.createStatement()) {
    // executeQuery
    ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery(sql);
    // print result
    printResult(resultSet);
} catch (SQLException e) {
    System.out.println("ERROR Message: " + e.getMessage());
    System.out.println("ERROR Code: " + e.getErrorCode());
    e.printStackTrace();
}
```

There are four types of error codes that the JDBC connector can report:

- Error code of the JDBC driver itself (error code between 0x2301 and 0x2350),
- Error code of the native connection method (error code between 0x2351 and 0x2360)
- Error code of the consumer method (error code between 0x2371 and 0x2380)
- Error code of other TDengine function modules.

For specific error codes, please refer to.

## TDengine DataType vs. Java DataType

TDengine currently supports timestamp, number, character, Boolean type, and the corresponding type conversion with Java is as follows:

| TDengine DataType | JDBCType           |
| ----------------- | ------------------ |
| TIMESTAMP         | java.sql.Timestamp |
| INT               | java.lang.Integer  |
| BIGINT            | java.lang.Long     |
| FLOAT             | java.lang.Float    |
| DOUBLE            | java.lang.Double   |
| SMALLINT          | java.lang.Short    |
| TINYINT           | java.lang.Byte     |
| BOOL              | java.lang.Boolean  |
| BINARY            | byte array         |
| NCHAR             | java.lang.String   |
| JSON              | java.lang.String   |

**Note**: Only TAG supports JSON types

## Installation Steps

### Pre-installation preparation

Before using Java Connector to connect to the database, the following conditions are required.

- Java 1.8 or above runtime environment and Maven 3.6 or above installed
- TDengine client driver installed (required for native connections, not required for REST connections), please refer to [Installing Client Driver](/reference/connector#Install-Client-Driver)

### Install the connectors

<Tabs defaultValue="maven">
<TabItem value="maven" label="Install via Maven">

taos-jdbcdriver has been published on the [Sonatype Repository](https://search.maven.org/artifact/com.taosdata.jdbc/taos-jdbcdriver) and synchronized to other major repositories.

- [sonatype](https://search.maven.org/artifact/com.taosdata.jdbc/taos-jdbcdriver)
- [mvnrepository](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.taosdata.jdbc/taos-jdbcdriver)
- [maven.aliyun](https://maven.aliyun.com/mvn/search)

Add following dependency in the `pom.xml` file of your Maven project:

```xml-dtd
<dependency>
 <groupId>com.taosdata.jdbc</groupId>
 <artifactId>taos-jdbcdriver</artifactId>
 <version>3.2.1</version>
</dependency>
```

</TabItem>
<TabItem value="source" label="Build from source code">

You can build Java connector from source code after cloning the TDengine project:

```shell

cd taos-connector-jdbc
mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true
```

After you have compiled taos-jdbcdriver, the `taos-jdbcdriver-3.2.*-dist.jar` file is created in the target directory. The compiled JAR file is automatically stored in your local Maven repository.

</TabItem>
</Tabs>

## Establishing a connection

TDengine's JDBC URL specification format is:
`jdbc:[TAOS|TAOS-RS]://[host_name]:[port]/[database_name]?[user={user}|&password={password}|&charset={charset}|&cfgdir={config_dir}|&locale={locale}|&timezone={timezone}]`

For establishing connections, native connections differ slightly from REST connections.

<Tabs defaultValue="rest">
<TabItem value="native" label="native connection">

```java
Class.forName("com.taosdata.jdbc.TSDBDriver");
String jdbcUrl = "jdbc:TAOS://taosdemo.com:6030/test?user=root&password=taosdata";
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(jdbcUrl);
```

In the above example, TSDBDriver, which uses a JDBC native connection, establishes a connection to a hostname `taosdemo.com`, port `6030` (the default port for TDengine), and a database named `test`. In this URL, the user name `user` is specified as `root`, and the `password` is `taosdata`.

Note: With JDBC native connections, taos-jdbcdriver relies on the client driver (`libtaos.so` on Linux; `taos.dll` on Windows; `libtaos.dylib` on macOS).

The configuration parameters in the URL are as follows:

- user: Log in to the TDengine username. The default value is 'root'.
- password: User login password, the default value is 'taosdata'.
- cfgdir: client configuration file directory path, default '/etc/taos' on Linux OS, 'C:/TDengine/cfg' on Windows OS, '/etc/taos' on macOS.
- charset: The character set used by the client, the default value is the system character set.
- locale: Client locale, by default, use the system's current locale.
- timezone: The time zone used by the client, the default value is the system's current time zone.
- batchfetch: true: pulls result sets in batches when executing queries; false: pulls result sets row by row. The default value is true. Enabling batch pulling and obtaining a batch of data can improve query performance when the query data volume is large.
- batchErrorIgnore:true: When executing statement executeBatch, if there is a SQL execution failure in the middle, the following SQL will continue to be executed. false: No more statements after the failed SQL are executed. The default value is: false.

**Connect using the TDengine client-driven configuration file **

When you use a JDBC native connection to connect to a TDengine cluster, you can use the TDengine client driver configuration file to specify parameters such as `firstEp` and `secondEp` of the cluster in the configuration file as below:

1. Do not specify hostname and port in Java applications.

```java
public Connection getConn() throws Exception{
  Class.forName("com.taosdata.jdbc.TSDBDriver");
  String jdbcUrl = "jdbc:TAOS://:/test?user=root&password=taosdata";
  Properties connProps = new Properties();
  connProps.setProperty(TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_CHARSET, "UTF-8");
  connProps.setProperty(TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_LOCALE, "en_US.UTF-8");
  connProps.setProperty(TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_TIME_ZONE, "UTC-8");
  Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(jdbcUrl, connProps);
  return conn;
}
```

2. specify the firstEp and the secondEp in the configuration file taos.cfg

```shell
# first fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for TDengine system
firstEp               cluster_node1:6030

# second fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for TDengine system, for cluster only
secondEp              cluster_node2:6030

# default system charset
# charset               UTF-8

# system locale
# locale                en_US.UTF-8
```

In the above example, JDBC uses the client's configuration file to establish a connection to a hostname `cluster_node1`, port 6030, and a database named `test`. When the firstEp node in the cluster fails, JDBC attempts to connect to the cluster using secondEp.

In TDengine, as long as one node in firstEp and secondEp is valid, the connection to the cluster can be established normally.

The configuration file here refers to the configuration file on the machine where the application that calls the JDBC Connector is located, the default path is `/etc/taos/taos.cfg` on Linux, the default path is `C://TDengine/cfg/taos.cfg` on Windows, and the default path is `/etc/taos/taos.cfg` on macOS.

</TabItem>
<TabItem value="rest" label="REST connection">

```java
Class.forName("com.taosdata.jdbc.rs.RestfulDriver");
String jdbcUrl = "jdbc:TAOS-RS://taosdemo.com:6041/test?user=root&password=taosdata";
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(jdbcUrl);
```

In the above example, a RestfulDriver with a JDBC REST connection is used to establish a connection to a database named `test` with hostname `taosdemo.com` on port `6041`. The URL specifies the user name as `root` and the password as `taosdata`.

There is no dependency on the client driver when Using a JDBC REST connection. Compared to a JDBC native connection, only the following are required:

1. driverClass specified as "com.taosdata.jdbc.rs.RestfulDriver".
2. jdbcUrl starting with "jdbc:TAOS-RS://".
3. use 6041 as the connection port.

The configuration parameters in the URL are as follows:

- user: Log in to the TDengine username. The default value is 'root'.
- password: User login password, the default value is 'taosdata'.
- batchfetch: true: pulls result sets in batches when executing queries; false: pulls result sets row by row. The default value is: false. batchfetch uses HTTP for data transfer. JDBC REST supports batch pulls. taos-jdbcdriver and TDengine transfer data via WebSocket connection. Compared with HTTP, WebSocket enables JDBC REST connection to support large data volume querying and improve query performance.
- charset: specify the charset to parse the string, this parameter is valid only when set batchfetch to true.
- batchErrorIgnore: true: when executing executeBatch of Statement, if one SQL execution fails in the middle, continue to execute the following SQL. false: no longer execute any statement after the failed SQL. The default value is: false.
- httpConnectTimeout: REST connection timeout in milliseconds, the default value is 5000 ms.
- httpSocketTimeout: socket timeout in milliseconds, the default value is 5000 ms. It only takes effect when batchfetch is false.
- messageWaitTimeout: message transmission timeout in milliseconds, the default value is 3000 ms. It only takes effect when batchfetch is true.
- useSSL: connecting Securely Using SSL. true: using SSL connection, false: not using SSL connection.

**Note**: Some configuration items (e.g., locale, timezone) do not work in the REST connection.

:::note

- Unlike the native connection method, the REST interface is stateless. When using the JDBC REST connection, you need to specify the database name of the table and super table in SQL. For example:

```sql
INSERT INTO test.t1 USING test.weather (ts, temperature) TAGS('California.SanFrancisco') VALUES(now, 24.6);
```

- If the dbname is specified in the URL, the JDBC REST connection uses /rest/sql/dbname as the default URL for RESTful requests. In this case, it is not necessary to specify the dbname in SQL. For example, if the URL is `jdbc:TAOS-RS://127.0.0.1:6041/test`, then the SQL can be executed: insert into test using weather(ts, temperature) tags('California.SanFrancisco') values(now, 24.6);

</Tabs>

### Specify the URL and Properties to get the connection

In addition to getting the connection from the specified URL, you can use Properties to specify parameters when the connection is established.

Note:

- The client parameter set in the application is process-level. If you want to update the parameters of the client, you need to restart the application. This is because the client parameter is a global parameter that takes effect only the first time the application is set.
- The following sample code is based on taos-jdbcdriver-3.1.0.

```java
public Connection getConn() throws Exception{
  Class.forName("com.taosdata.jdbc.TSDBDriver");
  String jdbcUrl = "jdbc:TAOS://taosdemo.com:6030/test?user=root&password=taosdata";
  Properties connProps = new Properties();
  connProps.setProperty(TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_CHARSET, "UTF-8");
  connProps.setProperty(TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_LOCALE, "en_US.UTF-8");
  connProps.setProperty(TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_TIME_ZONE, "UTC-8");
  connProps.setProperty("debugFlag", "135");
  connProps.setProperty("maxSQLLength", "1048576");
  Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(jdbcUrl, connProps);
  return conn;
}

public Connection getRestConn() throws Exception{
  Class.forName("com.taosdata.jdbc.rs.RestfulDriver");
  String jdbcUrl = "jdbc:TAOS-RS://taosdemo.com:6041/test?user=root&password=taosdata";
  Properties connProps = new Properties();
  connProps.setProperty(TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_BATCH_LOAD, "true");
  Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(jdbcUrl, connProps);
  return conn;
}
```

In the above example, a connection is established to `taosdemo.com`, port is 6030/6041, and database named `test`. The connection specifies the user name as `root` and the password as `taosdata` in the URL and specifies the character set, language environment, time zone, and whether to enable bulk fetching in the connProps.The url specifies the user name as `root` and the password as `taosdata`.

The configuration parameters in properties are as follows.

- TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_USER: login TDengine user name, default value 'root'.
- TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_PASSWORD: user login password, default value 'taosdata'.
- TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_BATCH_LOAD: true: pull the result set in batch when executing query; false: pull the result set row by row. The default value is: false.
- TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_BATCH_ERROR_IGNORE: true: when executing executeBatch of Statement, if there is a SQL execution failure in the middle, continue to execute the following sql. false: no longer execute any statement after the failed SQL. The default value is: false.
- TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_CONFIG_DIR: only works when using JDBC native connection. Client configuration file directory path, default value `/etc/taos` on Linux OS, default value `C:/TDengine/cfg` on Windows OS, default value `/etc/taos` on macOS.
- TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_CHARSET: In the character set used by the client, the default value is the system character set.
- TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_LOCALE: this only takes effect when using JDBC native connection. Client language environment, the default value is system current locale.
- TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_TIME_ZONE: only takes effect when using JDBC native connection. In the time zone used by the client, the default value is the system's current time zone.
- TSDBDriver.HTTP_CONNECT_TIMEOUT: REST connection timeout in milliseconds, the default value is 5000 ms. It only takes effect when using JDBC REST connection.
- TSDBDriver.HTTP_SOCKET_TIMEOUT: socket timeout in milliseconds, the default value is 5000 ms. It only takes effect when using JDBC REST connection and batchfetch is false.
- TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_MESSAGE_WAIT_TIMEOUT: message transmission timeout in milliseconds, the default value is 3000 ms. It only takes effect when using JDBC REST connection and batchfetch is true.
- TSDBDriver.PROPERTY_KEY_USE_SSL: connecting Securely Using SSL. true: using SSL connection, false: not using SSL connection. It only takes effect when using JDBC REST connection.
  For JDBC native connections, you can specify other parameters, such as log level, SQL length, etc., by specifying URL and Properties. For more detailed configuration, please refer to [Client Configuration](/reference/config/#Client-Only).

### Priority of configuration parameters

If the configuration parameters are duplicated in the URL, Properties, or client configuration file, the `priority` of the parameters, from highest to lowest, are as follows:

1. JDBC URL parameters, as described above, can be specified in the parameters of the JDBC URL.
2. Properties connProps
3. the configuration file taos.cfg of the TDengine client driver when using a native connection

For example, if you specify the password as `taosdata` in the URL and specify the password as `taosdemo` in the Properties simultaneously, JDBC will use the password in the URL to establish the connection.

## Usage examples

### Create database and tables

```java
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();

// create database
stmt.executeUpdate("create database if not exists db");

// use database
stmt.executeUpdate("use db");

// create table
stmt.executeUpdate("create table if not exists tb (ts timestamp, temperature int, humidity float)");
```

> **Note**: If you do not use `use db` to specify the database, all subsequent operations on the table need to add the database name as a prefix, such as db.tb.

### Insert data

```java
// insert data
int affectedRows = stmt.executeUpdate("insert into tb values(now, 23, 10.3) (now + 1s, 20, 9.3)");

System.out.println("insert " + affectedRows + " rows.");
```

> now is an internal function. The default is the current time of the client's computer.
> `now + 1s` represents the current time of the client plus 1 second, followed by the number representing the unit of time: a (milliseconds), s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours), d (days), w (weeks), n (months), y (years).

### Querying data

```java
// insert data
ResultSet resultSet = stmt.executeQuery("select * from tb");

Timestamp ts = null;
int temperature = 0;
float humidity = 0;
while(resultSet.next()){

    ts = resultSet.getTimestamp(1);
    temperature = resultSet.getInt(2);
    humidity = resultSet.getFloat("humidity");

    System.out.printf("%s, %d, %s\n", ts, temperature, humidity);
}
```

> The query is consistent with operating a relational database. When using subscripts to get the contents of the returned fields, you have to start from 1. However, we recommend using the field names to get the values of the fields in the result set.

### Writing data via parameter binding

TDengine has significantly improved the bind APIs to support data writing (INSERT) scenarios. Writing data in this way avoids the resource consumption of SQL syntax parsing, resulting in significant write performance improvements in many cases.

**Note:**

- JDBC REST connections do not currently support bind interface
- The following sample code is based on taos-jdbcdriver-3.2.1
- The setString method should be called for binary type data, and the setNString method should be called for nchar type data
- Do not use `db.?` in prepareStatement when specify the database with the table name, should directly use `?`, then specify the database in setTableName, for example: `prepareStatement.setTableName("db.t1")`.

### Data Subscription

The TDengine Java Connector supports subscription functionality with the following application API.

#### Create a Topic

```java
Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, properties);
Statement statement = connection.createStatement();
statement.executeUpdate("create topic if not exists topic_speed as select ts, speed from speed_table");
```

The three parameters of the `subscribe()` method have the following meanings.

- topic_speed: the subscribed topic (name). This is the unique identifier of the subscription.
- sql: the query statement of the subscription which can only be a _select_ statement. Only the original data should be queried, and data can only be queried in temporal order..

The preceding example uses the SQL statement `select ts, speed from speed_table` and creates a subscription named `topic_speed`.

#### Create a Consumer

```java
Properties config = new Properties();
config.setProperty("enable.auto.commit", "true");
config.setProperty("group.id", "group1");
config.setProperty("value.deserializer", "com.taosdata.jdbc.tmq.ConsumerTest.ResultDeserializer");

TaosConsumer consumer = new TaosConsumer<>(config);
```

- enable.auto.commit: Specifies whether to commit automatically.
- group.id: consumer: Specifies the group that the consumer is in.
- value.deserializer: To deserialize the results, you can inherit `com.taosdata.jdbc.tmq.ReferenceDeserializer` and specify the result set bean. You can also inherit `com.taosdata.jdbc.tmq.Deserializer` and perform custom deserialization based on the SQL result set.
- td.connect.type: Specifies the type connect with TDengine, `jni` or `WebSocket`. default is `jni`
- httpConnectTimeout：WebSocket connection timeout in milliseconds, the default value is 5000 ms. It only takes effect when using WebSocket type.
- messageWaitTimeout：socket timeout in milliseconds, the default value is 10000 ms. It only takes effect when using WebSocket type.
- For more information, see [Consumer Parameters](../../../develop/tmq).

#### Subscribe to consume data

```java
while(true) {
    ConsumerRecords<ResultBean> records = consumer.poll(Duration.ofMillis(100));
        for (ConsumerRecord<ResultBean> record : records) {
            ResultBean bean = record.value();
            process(bean);
        }
}
```

`poll` obtains one message each time it is run.

#### Close subscriptions

```java
// Unsubscribe
consumer.unsubscribe();
// Close consumer
consumer.close()
```

For more information, see [Data Subscription](../../../develop/tmq).

#### Full Sample Code

<TabItem value="native" label="native connection">

In addition to the native connection, the Java Connector also supports subscribing via websocket.

    private final TaosConsumer<ResultBean> consumer;

### Use with connection pool

#### HikariCP

Example usage is as follows.

```java
 public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException {
    HikariConfig config = new HikariConfig();
    // jdbc properties
    config.setJdbcUrl("jdbc:TAOS://127.0.0.1:6030/log");
    config.setUsername("root");
    config.setPassword("taosdata");
    // connection pool configurations
    config.setMinimumIdle(10);           //minimum number of idle connection
    config.setMaximumPoolSize(10);      //maximum number of connection in the pool
    config.setConnectionTimeout(30000); //maximum wait milliseconds for get connection from pool
    config.setMaxLifetime(0);       // maximum life time for each connection
    config.setIdleTimeout(0);       // max idle time for recycle idle connection
    config.setConnectionTestQuery("select server_status()"); //validation query

    HikariDataSource ds = new HikariDataSource(config); //create datasource

    Connection  connection = ds.getConnection(); // get connection
    Statement statement = connection.createStatement(); // get statement

    //query or insert
    // ...

    connection.close(); // put back to connection pool
}
```

> getConnection(), you need to call the close() method after you finish using it. It doesn't close the connection. It just puts it back into the connection pool.
> For more questions about using HikariCP, please see the [official instructions](https://github.com/brettwooldridge/HikariCP).

#### Druid

Example usage is as follows.

```java
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

    DruidDataSource dataSource = new DruidDataSource();
    // jdbc properties
    dataSource.setDriverClassName("com.taosdata.jdbc.TSDBDriver");
    dataSource.setUrl(url);
    dataSource.setUsername("root");
    dataSource.setPassword("taosdata");
    // pool configurations
    dataSource.setInitialSize(10);
    dataSource.setMinIdle(10);
    dataSource.setMaxActive(10);
    dataSource.setMaxWait(30000);
    dataSource.setValidationQuery("select server_status()");

    Connection  connection = dataSource.getConnection(); // get connection
    Statement statement = connection.createStatement(); // get statement
    //query or insert
    // ...

    connection.close(); // put back to connection pool
}
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is there no performance improvement when using Statement's `addBatch()` and `executeBatch()` to perform `batch data writing/update`?

   **Cause**: In TDengine's JDBC implementation, SQL statements submitted by `addBatch()` method are executed sequentially in the order they are added, which does not reduce the number of interactions with the server and does not bring performance improvement.

   **Solution**: 1. splice multiple values in a single insert statement; 2. use multi-threaded concurrent insertion; 3. use parameter-bound writing

2. java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no taos in java.library.path

   **Cause**: The program did not find the dependent native library `taos`.

   **Solution**: On Windows you can copy `C:\TDengine\driver\taos.dll` to the `C:\Windows\System32` directory, on Linux the following soft link will be created `ln -s /usr/local/taos/driver/libtaos.so.x.x.x.x /usr/lib/libtaos.so` will work, on macOS the lib soft link will be `/usr/local/lib/libtaos.dylib`.

3. java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: taos.dll Can't load AMD 64 bit on a IA 32-bit platform

   **Cause**: Currently, TDengine only supports 64-bit JDK.

   **Solution**: Reinstall the 64-bit JDK.

4. java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: setByteArray

   **Cause**: taos-jbdcdriver 3.\* only supports TDengine 3.0 and later.

   **Solution**: Use taos-jdbcdriver 2.\* with your TDengine 2.\* deployment.

5. java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.nio.ByteBuffer.position(I)Ljava/nio/ByteBuffer; ... taos-jdbcdriver-3.0.1.jar

**Cause**：taos-jdbcdriver 3.0.1 is compiled on JDK 11.

**Solution**： Use taos-jdbcdriver 3.0.2.

For additional troubleshooting, see [FAQ](../../../train-faq/faq).
