Config to connect to an external database through JDBC.

### Attributes

<h4 id="atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.url">
  *url*
</h4>

The JDBC connection string.

<h4 id="atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.sql_dialect_key">
  *sql\_dialect\_key*
</h4>

The key of the SQL dialect to use.

The dialect will typically be provided with an [`extra JAR`](./atoti.config.SessionConfig#atoti.SessionConfig.extra_jars).

<h4 id="atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.password_parameter_name">
  *password\_parameter\_name*
</h4>

The name of the query string parameter in which [`password`](#atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.password) should be added to [`url`](#atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.url).

Unused when [`password`](#atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.password) is `None`, required when it is not.

<h4 id="atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.auto_multi_column_array_conversion">
  *auto\_multi\_column\_array\_conversion*
</h4>

When not `None`, multi-column array conversion will be performed automatically.

<h4 id="atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.column_clustered_queries">
  *column\_clustered\_queries*
</h4>

Control which queries will use clustering columns.

<h4 id="atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.feeding_query_timeout">
  *feeding\_query\_timeout*
</h4>

Timeout for queries performed on the external database during feeding phases.

The feeding phases are:

* the initial load to feed [`aggregate_providers`](./atoti.Cube.aggregate_providers#atoti.Cube.aggregate_providers) and [`hierarchies`](./atoti.Cube.hierarchies#atoti.Cube.hierarchies);
* the refresh operations.

<h4 id="atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.lookup_mode">
  *lookup\_mode*
</h4>

Whether lookup queries on the external database are allowed.

Lookup can be very slow and expensive as the database may not enforce primary keys.

<h4 id="atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.max_sub_queries">
  *max\_sub\_queries*
</h4>

Maximum number of sub queries performed when splitting a query into multi-step queries.

<h4 id="atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.password">
  *password*
</h4>

The password to connect to the database.

Passing it in this separate attribute prevents it from being logged alongside the connection string.

If `None`, a password is expected to be present in [`url`](#atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.url).

<h4 id="atoti_directquery_jdbc.ConnectionConfig.query_timeout">
  *query\_timeout*
</h4>

Timeout for queries performed on the external database outside feeding phases.
