About the project
A header-only C client for the ClickHouse Native wire protocol, designed to be embedded in applications such as PostgreSQL extensions. It decodes Native Format blocks over TCP or from arbitrary I/O sources.
Useful for
- Read `clickhouse local` Native Format output from a pipe without TCP or compression.
- Embed a ClickHouse block decoder inside a PostgreSQL extension using palloc and longjmp.
- Implement a custom network client over TCP that reads ClickHouse data blocks with optional LZ4 or ZSTD compression.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
