Feature Request: Adding UUID (Ordered) display transformer for binary data in table

See original GitHub issue

This is a feature request for DBeaver to allow displaying UUID in the Ordered form described here stored in an MySQL / MariaDB in a binary(16) field as IDs: https://www.percona.com/blog/2014/12/19/store-uuid-optimized-way/

DELIMITER //  
CREATE DEFINER=`root`@`localhost` FUNCTION `ordered_uuid`(uuid BINARY(36))   
RETURNS binary(16) DETERMINISTIC   
RETURN UNHEX(CONCAT(SUBSTR(uuid, 15, 4),SUBSTR(uuid, 10, 4),SUBSTR(uuid, 1, 8),SUBSTR(uuid, 20, 4),SUBSTR(uuid, 25)));  
//  
DELIMITER ;

As far as my research went the existing UUID transformer in UUIDAttributeTransformer.java in realized as a plugin for DBeaver.

Currently using DBeaver 5.0.2 CE with MariaDB 10.0

Ok. then let’s leave it as is for now. Thanks for contribution 😉

Basically, every DBMS that uses binary storage for UUID will benefit from the re-ordering of the bytes - especially if UUID-Type 1 is used.

There are a handful projects on github that do the same re-ordering: https://github.com/search?utf8=✓&q=ordered+uuid&type= so the percona article might became a standard 😉
