TRQL (pronounced Treacle like the delicious British dark sweet syrup) is
the TRiggerQueryLanguage. It allows users to safely write queries on
their data. The queries are safely turned into ClickHouse queries which
are tenant-safe and not SQL injectable.

This started out as a translation of HogQL by PostHog from Python to
TypeScript.
Features
- Tenant safe queries.
- Many underlying ClickHouse features including functions and
aggregations.
- Virtual columns, which are exposed to users as real columns but are
actually expressions.
- Transformations of data types and where clauses.
- Simple JSON path querying.
- Limits on execution time.
- Reporting of query statistics.
