[FEATURE] Add fields for the Initial SQL category in connection-fields.xml etc #866

Open yurifal opened 3 years ago

yurifal commented 3 years ago

The optimal defaults for the Connection (session) could be pre-defined and written in the Initial SQL right from the start (for every new Connection).

These could be done by adding one more "vendor" field in the connection-fields.xml specifically for the Initial SQL category. There's no way to do it as of now (such code would be ignored by xml parser).

Name: Yuri Fal Company: Analytika Plus What's in the making: http://github.com/analytikaplus/clickhouse-tableau-connector-jdbc

For example, I would like to define the following session parameter

SET join_use_nulls=1;

in the Initial SQL for every connection to ClickHouse -- for a proper results in the In/Out Set dimensions.
