Vladimir Sitnikov commented on CALCITE-2439:
--------------------------------------------

{quote}I think it adds too much complexity if there is more than one table 
function.{quote}
Well, I'm thinking of non-table, scalar function to weight options.

That is table function would provide "possible options", and scalar function 
(or several of them) could weight.

>             Project: Calcite
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: core
>    Affects Versions: 1.17.0

> Current implementation of SqlAdvisor provides no way to perform smart 
> complete.
> For example,
>  1) A valid completion for {{select cd^ from clients}} might be {{select 
> client_id from clients}}.
>  That is completion is valid if all input characters are represented in final 
> word in a proper sequence.
> 2) Completion might be case-insensitive if all input characters have the same 
> upper/lower case.
> 3) "Contains" might be valid completion option as well. That is {{select id^ 
> from ...}} might be completed to \{{select client_id from...} as well.
> Of course, exact match should be sorted the first, then partial matches and 
> so on.
> It is not clear if smart complete logic belongs to {{SqlAdvisor}} or not. 
> Current client-facing API provides no way to skip default "case-sensitive 
> prefix filtering", so there's no way to implement smart complete at the 
> client side only.
> It is not clear where this logic belongs:
>  a) Ultimate solution would be "skip filtering the identifiers at SqlAdvisor 
> side". Then client can filter and sort the way it wants. The downside of the 
> approach is it would force client to pipe large amount of items across JDBC 
> bridge
>  b) It might be helpful if Calcite had pre-defined implementations that would 
> filter and sort the results. The good part is it simplifies client 
> development, however various clients might have various filters applied.
