Things you can do with SPyQL CLI that you can't with clickhouse local (AFAIK, top of my mind, not exhaustive):

- pipe data into (e.g. from another CLI util)

- use python code in your queries

- import python libs (just install them with pip/conda)

- write your one UDFs in Python

- run OS commands from within the query (using os.system)

- have guaranty of row order (like in grep, sed, etc)

And there is more, please take a look at: https://spyql.readthedocs.io/en/latest/distinctive.html

As shown in the first example you can pipe data into clickhouse-local: https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/operations/utilities/clickhou...
