README

DuckDB is an embedded SQL database designed for high-performance analytics (OLAP).

pdo_duckdb is a native DuckDB database driver for the PHP Data Objects (PDO) interface.
As a native PHP extension, it is implemented in C/C++ and does not require PHP FFI or preloading.
Compared to FFI, pdo_duckdb offers much more performance and lower latency by processing query results and type conversions in C/C++. It is also thread safe and fully tested with FrankenPHP (PHP-ZTS) and Swoole.
The release packages contain pre-compiled binaries for all supported platforms and DuckDB is directly included. DuckDB extensions work the same way as they do in DuckDB CLI.

This extension supports all DuckDB types: Text, Numeric, Date, Time, Interval, JSON, Array, Struct, Map, List, Enum, Variant, Geometry, Union, Bitstring, Blob and Boolean.

Supported PHP versions (nts & zts): 8.2 8.3 8.4 8.5 8.6

Supported operating systems: Ubuntu 22.04/24.04/26.04, Debian 12/13, Fedora 42/43, AmazonLinux, openSUSE 16, Wolfi OS, Windows Server 2022/2025 (x64), macOS 14-26 (arm64)

Supported SAPIs: php-cli, php-fpm, FrankenPHP, TrueAsync, Swoole, mod_php

Support end: Ubuntu 22.04 (April 2027), Debian 12 (April 2027)

Usage examples

$duckDb = new PDO('duckdb::memory:', null, null, [PDO::DUCKDB_ATTR_CONFIG => ['TimeZone' => 'Europe/Berlin']]);
$duckDb->exec("CREATE TABLE table1 (id INTEGER, amount DECIMAL(10, 2), description VARCHAR)");

$statement = $duckDb->prepare("INSERT INTO table1 VALUES (?, ?, ?)");
$statement->execute([1, 42.21, 'Hello DuckDB! 🐘 💓 🦆']);

$statement = $duckDb->query("SELECT * FROM table1");
print_r($statement->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC));

# Array
#     [0] => Array
#         [id] => 1
#         [amount] => 42.21
#         [description] => Hello DuckDB! 🐘 💓 🦆

Open databases from disk or in-memory

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:'); // open in-memory database

$db = new PDO('duckdb:/tmp/test.db'); // open database file from disk

// open database file as read-only
$db = new PDO('duckdb:/tmp/test.db', null, null, [
    PDO::DUCKDB_ATTR_CONFIG => ['access_mode' => 'read_only']
]);

Read and write Parquet files

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$db->exec("CREATE TABLE table1 (id INTEGER, text VARCHAR USING COMPRESSION zstd, data JSON)");

$statement = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO table1 VALUES (?, ?, ?)");
$statement->execute([1, 'Hello DuckDB 🦆', ['foo' => 'bar', 'baz' => 42]]);

$db->exec("COPY (SELECT * FROM table1) TO '/tmp/table1.parquet' (COMPRESSION zstd)");

foreach ($db->query("SELECT * FROM '/tmp/table1.parquet'", PDO::FETCH_ASSOC) as $row) {
    print_r($row);
}

# Array
#     [id] => 1
#     [text] => Hello DuckDB 🦆
#     [data] => Array
#         [foo] => bar
#         [baz] => 42

Apache Parquet: very fast and efficient column based storage file format containing one table of data.
Each column is split into several column groups. Depending on the query, the file can be read partially by certain columns groups.
Different compression or dictionary algorithms can be applied to each column. Also supports encryption.

Note: You can read and save Parquet files on local file systems or directly on S3 object storage.

Read CSV files with SQL

$list = [
    ['aaa', 'bbb', 'ccc'],
    ['123', '456', '789'],
    ['aaa', 'bbb', 'ccc']
];
$fp = fopen('/tmp/test.csv', 'w');
foreach ($list as $fields) {
    fputcsv($fp, $fields, ',', '"', "");
}
fclose($fp);

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$statement = $db->query("SELECT * FROM '/tmp/test.csv'");
print_r($statement->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC));

# Array
#     [0] => Array
#         [aaa] => 123
#         [bbb] => 456
#         [ccc] => 789
#     [1] => Array
#         [aaa] => aaa
#         [bbb] => bbb
#         [ccc] => ccc

CSV data import

$list = [
    ['aaa', 'bbb'],
    ['123', '456'],
    ['aaa', 'bbb']
];
$fp = fopen('/tmp/test.csv', 'w');
foreach ($list as $fields) {
    fputcsv($fp, $fields, ',', '"', "");
}
fclose($fp);

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$db->exec("CREATE TABLE test_csv AS SELECT * FROM '/tmp/test.csv'"); // schema + data import
$db->exec("INSERT INTO test_csv SELECT * FROM '/tmp/test.csv'"); // only import data

print_r($db->query('SHOW test_csv')->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC));

# Array
#     [0] => Array
#         [column_name] => aaa
#         [column_type] => VARCHAR
#         [null] => YES
#     [1] => Array
#         [column_name] => bbb
#         [column_type] => VARCHAR
#         [null] => YES

Read JSON files with SQL

file_put_contents('/tmp/logs.json', json_encode(['log' => 'log text']) . PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND);
file_put_contents('/tmp/logs.json', json_encode(['log' => 'log text 2']) . PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND);

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$statement = $db->query("SELECT * FROM '/tmp/logs.json'");
print_r($statement->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC));

# Array
#     [0] => Array
#         [log] => log text
#     [1] => Array
#         [log] => log text 2

$db->exec("COPY (SELECT * FROM '/tmp/logs.json') TO '/tmp/logs_json.parquet' (COMPRESSION zstd)");

Use structured columns with a fixed schema

// s is array{v: string, i: int, a: string[], d: float}

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$db->exec("CREATE TABLE table1 (s STRUCT(v VARCHAR, i INTEGER, a VARCHAR[], d DECIMAL))");

$statement = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO table1 VALUES (?)");
$statement->execute([['v' => 'foo', 'i' => 21, 'a' => ['b', 'c'], 'd' => 42.21]]);

$statement = $db->query("SELECT * FROM table1");
print_r($statement->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC));

# Array
#     [s] => Array
#         [v] => foo
#         [i] => 21
#         [a] => Array
#             [0] => b
#             [1] => c
#         [d] => 42.21

Cast array columns to JSON-string

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$db->exec("CREATE TABLE table1 (v VARCHAR[])");
$db->exec("INSERT INTO table1 VALUES (['a', 'b'])");

$statement = $db->query("SELECT v FROM table1");
print_r($statement->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC));

# Array
#     [v] => Array
#         [0] => a
#         [1] => b

$statement = $db->query("SELECT v::json::varchar as v FROM table1");
print_r($statement->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC));

# Array
#     [v] => ["a","b"]

Auto increment columns

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$db->exec('CREATE SEQUENCE table1_id');
$db->exec("CREATE TABLE table1 (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY DEFAULT nextval('table1_id'))");
$statement = $db->query("INSERT INTO table1 VALUES (default) RETURNING *");
print_r($statement->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC));

# Array
#     [id] => 1

Differences to MySQL / MariaDB

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$statement = $db->query("SELECT
    0/0, 1/0, -1/0,
    nullif(0/0, 'NAN'), nullif(1/0, 'INF'), nullif(-1/0, '-INF')");
var_export($statement->fetch(PDO::FETCH_NUM));

# array (
#     0 => NAN, // MySQL,MariaDB: NULL
#     1 => INF, // MySQL,MariaDB: NULL
#     2 => -INF, // MySQL,MariaDB: NULL
#     3 => NULL,
#     4 => NULL,
#     5 => NULL,
# )

Copy data from MySQL or MariaDB to Parquet

Start MariaDB container, create and fill "orders" table:

docker run --rm -it -p 3306:3306 -e MARIADB_ROOT_PASSWORD=secret -e MARIADB_DATABASE=testdb mariadb:12
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -psecret testdb -e "
    CREATE TABLE orders (id integer primary key, customer integer, amount decimal(12, 2), origin varchar(255));
    INSERT INTO orders VALUES (1, 42, 123.42, 'shop');
    INSERT INTO orders VALUES (2, 21, 12.21, 'offline');
"

Use DuckDB MySQL extension to copy "orders" table from MariaDB to a parquet file:

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$db->exec('INSTALL mysql');
$db->exec("ATTACH 'host=127.0.0.1 port=3306 user=root password=secret database=testdb' AS testdb (TYPE mysql)");
$db->exec("COPY (select * from testdb.orders) TO '/tmp/orders.parquet' (FORMAT parquet)");

$rows = $db->query("SELECT * from '/tmp/orders.parquet'")->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
print_r($rows);

# Array
#     [0] => Array
#         [id] => 1
#         [customerId] => 42
#         [amount] => 123.42
#         [origin] => shop
#     [1] => Array
#         [id] => 2
#         [customerId] => 21
#         [amount] => 12.21
#         [origin] => offline

Copy data from PostgreSQL to Parquet

Start PostgreSQL container, create and fill "orders" table:

docker run --rm -it -p 5432:5432 -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=secret postgres:18
PGPASSWORD=secret psql -h 127.0.0.1 -U postgres -c "
    CREATE TABLE orders (id integer primary key, customer integer, amount decimal(12, 2), origin varchar(255));
    INSERT INTO orders VALUES (1, 42, 123.42, 'shop');
    INSERT INTO orders VALUES (2, 21, 12.21, 'offline');
"

Use DuckDB PostgreSQL extension to copy "orders" table from PostgreSQL to a parquet file:

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$db->exec('INSTALL postgres');
$db->exec("ATTACH 'host=127.0.0.1 port=5432 user=postgres password=secret' AS testdb (TYPE postgres)");
$db->exec("COPY (select * from testdb.orders) TO '/tmp/orders.parquet' (FORMAT parquet)");

$rows = $db->query("SELECT * from '/tmp/orders.parquet'")->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
print_r($rows);

# Array
#     [0] => Array
#         [id] => 1
#         [customerId] => 42
#         [amount] => 123.42
#         [origin] => shop
#     [1] => Array
#         [id] => 2
#         [customerId] => 21
#         [amount] => 12.21
#         [origin] => offline

Read public data using HTTPs, JSON, CSV and Parquet

Query weather data:

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');

$url = 'https://bulk.meteostat.net/v2/stations/lite.json.gz';
$rows = $db->query("select id, name.en from read_json('{$url}') WHERE name.en like '%Berlin%' limit 2");
echo json_encode($rows->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)), PHP_EOL;

$url = 'https://data.meteostat.net/hourly/2026/10381.csv.gz';
$rows = $db->query("select hour, temp from read_csv('{$url}') where year = 2026 and month = 7 and day = 25 and hour > 9 limit 4");
echo json_encode($rows->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)), PHP_EOL;

# [{"id":"10381","en":"Berlin \/ Dahlem"},{"id":"10382","en":"Berlin \/ Tegel"}]
# [{"hour":10,"temp":24.1},{"hour":11,"temp":25.5},{"hour":12,"temp":26.4},{"hour":13,"temp":27.4}]

Download and query historical data from Deutsche Bahn:

# wget https://huggingface.co/datasets/piebro/deutsche-bahn-data/resolve/main/monthly_processed_data/data-2026-07.parquet

$db = new PDO('duckdb::memory:');
$rows = $db->query("
    SELECT train_type, train_number, round(avg(delay_in_min)) as delay_avg, count(*) as count
    FROM 'data-2026-07.parquet' WHERE train_type = 'ICE'

Performance

DuckDB is extremely fast when it comes to analytic queries.
Here is an example with 10M rows, performing in 170ms on 4 threads with 128M ram:

.timer on
/* generate 10M rows with random data */
COPY (
    SELECT i,
        (random()*1_000)::decimal(11,2) as d1,
        (random()*1_000)::int as i1,
        to_hex((random()*100000)::int) as h1,
        to_timestamp((i+1_0000_000) * random() * 100)::timestamp as created
    FROM generate_series(10_000_000) s(i)
) TO '/tmp/test.parquet' (format parquet, compression zstd);
/* Run Time (s): real 4.158 user 4.002094 sys 0.154674 */

SET threads = 4;
SET memory_limit = '128M';
SELECT count(*), sum(i), avg(d1), stddev(i1), avg(length(h1)), avg(date_diff('day', current_date, created))
FROM '/tmp/test.parquet';
/* Run Time (s): real 0.170 user 0.616465 sys 0.051658 */

Security

Use SQL SET variable = value; or put the settings inside the PDO::DUCKDB_ATTR_CONFIG connection options array:

# Disable extension loading
SET autoload_known_extensions = false;
SET autoinstall_known_extensions = false;
SET allow_community_extensions = false;

# Disable external file access, directory white listing
SET allowed_directories = ['/tmp'];
SET enable_external_access = false;

# Resource limits
SET threads = 4;
SET memory_limit = '4GB';
SET max_temp_directory_size = '4GB';

# Lock configuration
SET lock_configuration = true;

Why DuckDB?

https://duckdb.org/why_duckdb

Like SQLite, DuckDB embeds directly into host applications as a library, eliminating the need for network serialization and separate server setups. It uses columnar storage and vectorized processing, running analytics 10–100x faster than traditional row-oriented databases. DuckDB spills data to disk if needed, allowing to process datasets much larger than available system RAM. It includes an advanced query optimizer that handles joins, subqueries, expressions and filters.
DuckDB can directly query flat files (JSON, CSV, and Parquet) directly via SQL without needing to import the data first. Flat files can be read directly from disk, network attached storage or S3 comatible cloud storage.
Data is processed in cache-friendly batches on a multi-core architecture, allowing modern hardware to operate on arrays of data simultaneously. For analytical queries that only require a few metrics, DuckDB reads only the relevant columns from disk/memory, saving I/O and CPU cycles. This brings data warehouse-level performance to any laptop or server.

FAQ
