Akka Streams/IO Client for ClickHouse #23

Open cretz opened 8 years ago

New, neat DB - https://github.com/yandex/ClickHouse/
Undocumented protocol, ref client CLI connection and simple protocol header
Back when Akka streams were in alpha/beta I did this with IMAP (ref: https://github.com/cretz/smail) but abandoned it
People want a JDBC driver (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/clickhouse/pwow5kIj7O0)
If we didn't want to do Akka, we could do raw Java nio2 to save people the scala and akka dependency

Maybe a better idea:

A postgres or mysql wire format proxy for the project so people can use their existing libs

We have added JDBC driver https://github.com/yandex/clickhouse-jdbc (Just sources right now; pre-built binaries is expected in few days.)

@alexey-milovidov - Neat! Unfortunately JDBC drivers use synchronous approaches to data retrieval. There is often no async network use. I haven't read y'all's impl, but ideally an async network JVM driver would be preferred.
