Percona-Tookit工具包之pt-table-usage

Preface

There always be some table join operations in our SQL statement.Although we can know details of table join information from explain opertion by json format.Whatif you are not using MySQL 5.7?Is there a tool which can tell us how the tables are used in join operations?

Introduce

pt-table-usage is simply used to anaylyze how the queries use tables.It can indicate the data flow by the contexts in which table appear.We can either get these information from query statement directly(using "--query" option) or from a log file(It should be slow log format) insetead.

Procedure

Usage

 pt-table-usage [OPTIONS] [FILES]

Common parameter

 --constant-data-value //Specify the table to print as the source for constant data(default "DUAL").

 --continue-on-error //It won't stop when getting errors(default "yes").

 --create-table-definitions //Specify a file to read definitions in it.

 --explain-extended //Specify a server to avoid ambiguous names of columns and tables.

 --id-attribute //Specify a format to identify each event(default query ID).

 --progress //Specify the way to print progress(default time,30s).

 --query //Speicy reading from a qeury instead of log file.

Example

Print table usage relevant with constant query(insert,update).

 //Create a test table.

 (zlm@192.168.1.101 )[zlm]>create table test_table_usage(

     -> id int,

     -> name char()

     -> ) engine=innodb;

 Query OK,  rows affected (0.02 sec)

 [root@zlm2 :: ~]

 #pt-table-usage --query='insert into zlm.test_table_usage values(1,'zlm');'

 Query_id: 0x4467805469FEF40B. //The

 INSERT zlm.test_table_usage

 SELECT DUAL //When specifying the constant value,it will print "DUAL" after "SELECT".

 [root@zlm2 :: ~]

 #pt-table-usage --query='update zlm.test_table_usage set id=2 where name='zlm';'

 Query_id: 0xB2EE79AD4DA99C2B.

 UPDATE zlm.test_table_usage

 SELECT DUAL //When specifying the constant value,it will print "DUAL" after "SELECT".

 WHERE zlm.test_table_usage //There's a condition in query statment.It will be printed here.

 (zlm@192.168.1.101 )[zlm]>select * from test_table_usage;

 Empty set (0.00 sec) //There're no records changed at all in the test table.Because those two queries are just query operations which won't be really executed.

Print table usage relevant with query(select).

 [root@zlm2 :: ~]

 #pt-table-usage --query='select t1.id,t1.pad from sbtest1 as t1 join sbtest2 as t2 where t1.pad=t2.pad;'

 Query_id: 0x016CE309DD3D9FA3.

 SELECT sbtest1 //This time,it shows the specific table name which your query data in.

 TLIST sbtest1 //"TLIST" means full table scan will be used in the above query.

 TLIST sbtest2

 WHERE sbtest1

 [root@zlm2 :: ~]

 #pt-table-usage --query='select t1.id,t2.pad from sbtest1 as t1 join sbtest2 as t2 where t1.pad=t2.pad;'

 Query_id: 0x016CE309DD3D9FA3.

 SELECT sbtest1

 SELECT sbtest2 //Have you seen the difference?The column "pad" belongs to the table "sbtest2" in the query,So there comes the line.

 TLIST sbtest1 //"TLIST" means full table scan will be used in the above query either.

 TLIST sbtest2

 WHERE sbtest1

Print table usage according to the slow log file.

Summary

It's very simple to use pt-table-usage,there're only several options of it.
pt-table-usage can be used in either a query statement by specifying "--query" or a log file such as slow log by specifying the path of it.
If your MySQL version is below 5.7,you can consider using pt-table-usage to analyze the join information of tables in queries.
