MODIFY COLUMN |
TiDB 数据库中 MODIFY COLUMN 的使用概况。 |
|
ALTER TABLE .. MODIFY COLUMN
语句用于修改已有表上的列,包括列的数据类型和属性。若要同时重命名,可改用 CHANGE COLUMN
语句。
从 v5.1.0 版本起,TiDB 开始支持 Reorg 类型变更,包括但不限于:
- 从
VARCHAR
转换为BIGINT
DECIMAL
精度修改- 从
VARCHAR(10)
到VARCHAR(5)
的长度压缩

CREATE TABLE t1 (id int not null primary key AUTO_INCREMENT, col1 INT);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.11 sec)
{{< copyable "sql" >}}
INSERT INTO t1 (col1) VALUES (1),(2),(3),(4),(5);
Query OK, 5 rows affected (0.02 sec)
Records: 5 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
{{< copyable "sql" >}}
ALTER TABLE t1 MODIFY col1 BIGINT;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.09 sec)
{{< copyable "sql" >}}
SHOW CREATE TABLE t1\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Table: t1
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `t1` (
`id` int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`col1` bigint DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_bin AUTO_INCREMENT=30001
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

CREATE TABLE t1 (id int not null primary key AUTO_INCREMENT, col1 INT);

INSERT INTO t1 (col1) VALUES (12345),(67890);

{{< copyable "sql" >}}
ALTER TABLE t1 MODIFY col1 VARCHAR(5);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (2.52 sec)
{{< copyable "sql" >}}
SHOW CREATE TABLE t1\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Table: t1
CREATE TABLE `t1` (
`id` int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`col1` varchar(5) DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`) /*T![clustered_index] CLUSTERED */
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_bin AUTO_INCREMENT=30001
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
注意:
当所变更的类型与已经存在的数据行产生冲突时,TiDB 会进行报错处理。在上述例子中,TiDB 将进行如下报错:
alter table t1 modify column col1 varchar(4); ERROR 1406 (22001): Data Too Long, field len 4, data len 5
由于和 Async Commit 功能兼容,DDL 在开始进入到 Reorg Data 前会有一定时间(约 2.5s)的等待处理:
Query OK, 0 rows affected (2.52 sec)
-
不支持修改主键列上需要 Reorg-Data 的类型,但是支持修改 Meta-Only 的类型。例如:
CREATE TABLE t (a int primary key); ALTER TABLE t MODIFY COLUMN a VARCHAR(10); ERROR 8200 (HY000): Unsupported modify column: column has primary key flag
CREATE TABLE t (a int primary key); ALTER TABLE t MODIFY COLUMN a int UNSIGNED; ERROR 8200 (HY000): Unsupported modify column: column has primary key flag
CREATE TABLE t (a int primary key); ALTER TABLE t MODIFY COLUMN a bigint; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
-
不支持修改生成列的类型。例如:
CREATE TABLE t (a INT, b INT as (a+1)); ALTER TABLE t MODIFY COLUMN b VARCHAR(10); ERROR 8200 (HY000): Unsupported modify column: column is generated
-
不支持修改分区表上的列类型。例如:
CREATE TABLE t (c1 INT, c2 INT, c3 INT) partition by range columns(c1) ( partition p0 values less than (10), partition p1 values less than (maxvalue)); ALTER TABLE t MODIFY COLUMN c1 DATETIME; ERROR 8200 (HY000): Unsupported modify column: table is partition table
-
不支持部分数据类型(例如,部分 TIME 类型、BIT、SET、ENUM、JSON 等)向某些类型的变更,因为 TiDB 的
CAST
函数与 MySQL 的行为有一些兼容性问题。例如:CREATE TABLE t (a DECIMAL(13, 7)); ALTER TABLE t MODIFY COLUMN a DATETIME; ERROR 8200 (HY000): Unsupported modify column: change from original type decimal(13,7) to datetime is currently unsupported yet
