Please write in changelog when you move things around. For example moving quote_identifier was really unexpected.

Just to be clear, if doesn't have a doc string it's not considered part of the public API, so there are no guarantees that it won't be moved or otherwise refactored. That said, I think it makes sense to have some of the utility functions documented and "fixed".

[genzgd]

Sorry, I should have said "documentation", since that's what's in the back of my mind when refactoring code, and doc strings are not a perfect proxy for that. If you have suggestions for utility functions that are worth documenting, I'll include them in the documentation update currently in progress.

So far that's what we used.

from clickhouse_connect import create_client  # type: ignore
from clickhouse_connect.driver.client import Client  # type: ignore
from clickhouse_connect.driver.exceptions import DatabaseError  # type: ignore
from clickhouse_connect.driver.query import quote_identifier as I  # type: ignore

And that's a pretty big project with ~100k loc.
