Latest stable release: 0.7.8 -- requires Clojure 1.7 or later!
Leiningen dependency information:
[org.clojure/java.jdbc "0.7.8"]
Maven dependency information:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.clojure</groupId>
<artifactId>java.jdbc</artifactId>
<version>0.7.8</version>
</dependency>
Note: Earlier versions of Clojure are supported by older versions of clojure.java.jdbc
: e.g., version 0.6.1 supports Clojure 1.4 and later.
You will also need to add dependencies for the JDBC driver you intend to use. Here are links (to Maven Central) for each of the common database drivers that clojure.java.jdbc is known to be used with:
Note: different versions of various database drivers have different Java/JVM version requirements. In particular, recent versions of Apache Derby require at least Java 8 and recent versions of H2 require at least Java 7. Clojure's Continuous Integration system uses older versions so tests can be run on Java 6 (see pom.xml
); local testing is done with more recent versions on Java 8.
(require '[clojure.java.jdbc :as j])
;; there are many ways to write a db-spec but the easiest way is to
;; use :dbtype and then provide the :dbname and any of :user, :password,
;; :host, :port, and other options as needed:
(def mysql-db {:dbtype "mysql"
:dbname "clojure_test"
:user "clojure_test"
:password "clojure_test"})
(def pg-db {:dbtype "postgresql"
:dbname "mypgdatabase"
:host "mydb.server.com"
:user "myuser"
:password "secret"
:ssl true
:sslfactory "org.postgresql.ssl.NonValidatingFactory"})
;; if the dbtype is not known to clojure.java.jdbc, or you want to override the
;; default choice of JDBC driver class name, you can provide :classname and the
;; name of the class to use:
(def redshift42 {:dbtype "redshift"
:dbname "myredstore"
:classname "com.amazon.redshift.jdbc42.Driver"
...})
;; you can also specify a full connection string if you'd prefer:
(def pg-uri
{:connection-uri (str "postgresql://myuser:secret@mydb.server.com:5432/mypgdatabase"
"?ssl=true&sslfactory=org.postgresql.ssl.NonValidatingFactory")})
(j/insert-multi! mysql-db :fruit
[{:name "Apple" :appearance "rosy" :cost 24}
{:name "Orange" :appearance "round" :cost 49}])
;; ({:generated_key 1} {:generated_key 2})
(j/query mysql-db
["select * from fruit where appearance = ?" "rosy"]
{:row-fn :cost})
;; (24)
For more detail see the API reference or documentation.
Testing:
To test against PostgreSQL, first create the user and database:
$ sudo -u postgres createuser clojure_test -P clojure_test
$ sudo -u postgres createdb clojure_test -O clojure_test
Or similarly with MySQL:
$ mysql -u root
mysql> create database clojure_test;
mysql> grant all on clojure_test.* to clojure_test identified by "clojure_test";
Then run the tests with the TEST_DBS environment variable:
$ TEST_DBS="mysql postgres" mvn test
Also see the run-tests.sh
shell script which uses the clj
CLI and deps.edn
for multi-version testing!

get-connection
now accepts an opts
map with :auto-commit?
and :read-only?
options. If present, the appropriate methods will be called on the connection obtained. These options are valid in any function call that may call get-connection
under the hood. This should allow for streaming results in a query for most databases JDBC-153.prepared-statement

clojure.java.jdbc
now requires Clojure 1.7 or later!clojure.java.jdbc.spec
namespace (requires clojure.spec.alpha
).reducible-query
and reducible-result-set
use IReduce
and correctly support the no-init
arity of reduce
by using the first row of the ResultSet
, if present, as the (missing) init
value, and only calling f
with no arguments if the ResultSet
is empty. The init
arity of reduce
only ever calls f
with two arguments.Release 0.7.0-beta1 on 2017-06-29
clojure.spec.alpha
.reducible-query
accepts a db-spec
and a SQL/parameters vector and returns a reducible (IReduce
on Clojure 1.7 or later; CollReduce
on Clojure 1.5/1.6): when reduced, it runs the query, obtains a reducible result set, and then reduces that. A reducible query will run the query each time it is reduced. The helper function reducible-result-set
is public: it accepts a ResultSet
and produces a reducible that offers a single pass reduce over the rows. Both functions honor reduced
values to short-circuit the process JDBC-99.Release 0.7.0-alpha3 on 2017-03-23
classname
is now accepted with dbtype
/ dbname
so you can easily specify a JDBC driver class name for a database type that is not known JDBC-151.redshift
has been added as a dbtype
with com.amazon.redshift.jdbc.Driver
as the driver name.Release 0.7.0-alpha2 on 2017-03-01
pgsql
and the Impossibl PostgresSQL 'NG' driver are now supported (note that :max-rows
does not work with this driver!); also, providing unknown dbtype
or subprotocol
in a db-spec
should now throw a better exception JDBC-150.quoted
now accepts keywords for database / dialect (:ansi
(including PostgresSQL), :mysql
, :oracle
, :sqlserver
-- these match the keywords used in HoneySQL which is the recommended third party SQL DSL for java.jdbc) JDBC-149.get-connection
clauses to make it easier to combine keys in a db-spec
JDBC-148.DriverManager
before classForName
call on drivers to avoid potential race condition on initialization JDBC-145.Release 0.7.0-alpha1 on 2016-11-12 -- potentially breaking changes
as-sql-name
and quoted
have changed slightly: the former no longer has the curried (single argument) version, and the latter no longer has the two argument version. This change came out of a discussion on Slack which indicated curried functions are non-idiomatic. If you relied on the curried version of as-sql-name
, you will not need to use partial
. If you relied on the two argument version of quoted
, you will need to add an extra ( )
for the one argument call. I'd be fairly surprised if anyone is using as-sql-name
at all since it is really an implementation detail. I'd also be surprised if anyone was using the two argument version of quoted
since the natural usage is :entities (quoted [\[ \]])
to create a naming strategy (that provides SQL entity quoting).insert-multi!
with a sequence of row maps may be substantially slower than with a sequence of row value vectors (the former performs an insert for each row, the latter performs a single insert for all the data together) JDBC-147.insert!
and update!
JDBC-144.get-isolation-level
to return the current transaction's isolation level, if any JDBC-141.read-columns
option to allow more flexible customization of reading column values from a result set (particularly in a multi-database application). Also expands set-parameters
support to options (previously it was just part of the db-spec) JDBC-137.clojure.spec
coverage to almost the whole library API.Release 0.6.2-alpha3 on 2016-08-25
:qualifier
and existing :identifiers
functionality JDBC-140.:dbtype
is the easiest / preferred way to write db-spec
maps JDBC-139.Release 0.6.2-alpha2 on 2016-07-21
clojure.spec
support to work with Clojure 1.9.0 Alpha 10.Release 0.6.2-alpha1 on 2016-07-05
clojure.spec
via the new clojure.java.jdbc.spec
namespace. Requires Clojure 1.9.0 Alpha 8 (or later).db-spec
itself JDBC-136.query
(and by extension find-by-keys
and get-by-id
) now support :explain?
and :explain-fn
options to help support basic performance analysis JDBC-135.insert!
and insert-multi!
now respect :identifiers
and :qualifier
because inserting rows on PostgreSQL returns full rows, not just the newly inserted keys JDBC-134.:identifiers
option, you can now use :qualifier
to specify a namespace qualifier (string) to be used when constructing keywords from SQL column names JDBC-133.Release 0.6.1 on 2016-05-12 -- IMPORTANT BUG FIX!
insert!
and insert-multi!
now default :transaction?
to true
(as they should have done in 0.6.0!) JDBC-128. These two functions also have improved docstrings to clarify the difference in behavior between inserting rows as maps compared to inserting rows as a series of column values.Release 0.6.0 on 2016-05-11 -- BREAKING RELEASE! DEPRECATED FUNCTIONALITY REMOVED!
find-by-keys
now correctly handles nil
values JDBC-126. 0.6.0 / 2016-05-11.find-by-keys
calls seq
on :order-by
to treat []
as no ORDER BY
clause. 0.6.0 / 2016-05-11.db-query-with-resultset
now accepts an options map and passes it to prepare-statement
JDBC-125. 0.6.0-rc2 / 2016-05-07.
prepare-statement
options map as the first element of the [sql & params]
vector is no longer supported and will throw an IllegalArgumentException
. It was always very poorly documented and almost never used, as far as I can tell.db-query-with-resultset
no longer requires the sql-params
argument to be a vector: a sequence is acceptable. This is in line with other functions that accept a sequence. 0.6.0-rc2 / 2016-05-07.db-query-with-resultset
now accepts a bare SQL string or PreparedStatement
as the sql-params
argument, when there are no parameters needed. This is in line with other functions that accept SQL or a PreparedStatement
. 0.6.0-rc2 / 2016-05-07.query
's options map now is passed to db-query-with-resultset
and thus can contain options to be used to construct the PreparedStatement
JDBC-125. 0.6.0-rc2 / 2016-05-07.get-by-id
and find-by-keys
convenience functions (these were easy to add after the API changes in 0.6.0 and we rely very heavily on them at World Singles so putting them in the core for everyone seemed reasonable). 0.6.0-rc1 / 2016-05-04.
find-by-keys
accepts an :order-by
option that expects a sequence of orderings; an ordering is a column name (keyword) or a map from column name (keyword) to direction (:asc
or :desc
). 0.6.0-rc2 / 2016-05-07.insert-multi!
argument validation exception JDBC-123. 0.6.0-alpha2 / 2016-04-18.db-transaction
(deprecated in version 0.3.0) has been removedjava.jdbc.deprecated
namespace has been removedRelease 0.5.8 on 2016-04-12
db-do-commands
now expects multiple commands to be be wrapped in a vector JDBC-122. The single command form is unchanged (but may be wrapped in a vector). Calling db-do-commands
with multiple commands (not wrapped in a single vector) will produce a "DEPRECATED" warning printed to the console.db-do-prepared
and db-do-prepared-return-keys
now expect to receive a db-spec
, an optional transaction?
boolean, a sql-params
argument, and an optional options map. sql-params
is a vector containing a SQL string or PreparedStatement
followed by parameters -- like other APIs in this library. In addition, like the :multi? true
version of execute!
, db-do-prepared
can accept a vector that has parameter groups: multiple vectors containing groups of parameter values JDBC-122. Calling db-do-prepared
with unrolled arguments -- the SQL string / statement followed by parameter groups -- is deprecated and will produce "DEPRECATED" warnings printed to the console.Release 0.5.7 on 2016-04-10
(insert! db table [:col] ["val"] {})
syntax, introduced in 0.5.6, threw an exception JDBC-121.Release 0.5.6 on 2016-04-10
create-table-ddl
now expects the column specs to be wrapped in a single vector and no longer needs the :options
delimiter to specify the options map JDBC-120.
insert!
now supports only single row insertion; multi-row insertion is deprecated. insert-multi!
has been added for multi-row insertion. :options
is no longer needed as a delimiter for the options map JDBC-119.
insert!
is called with multiple rows, or :options
is specified, you will get a "DEPRECATED" warning printed to the console.Release 0.5.5 on 2016-04-09

.prepareStatement
JDBC-112 - Michael Blume.metadata-query
macro to make metadata query / results easier to work with for JDBC-107.prepare-statement
:return-keys
may now be a vector of (auto-generated) column names to return, in addition to just being truthy or falsey. This allows keys to be returned for more databases. JDBC-104.Release 0.4.0 / 0.4.1 on 2015-07-26
