import org.jooq.impl.DSL;

A SQL keyword.

A Keyword is a QueryPart that renders a SQL keyword according to the settings specified in Settings.getRenderKeywordCase(). It is useful mostly in jOOQ's internals and for users who wish to make extensive use of "plain SQL templating". 

Example:

// Assuming import static org.jooq.impl.DSL.*;
Field<Integer> field = field(
    "{0}({1} {2} {3})",
    SQLDataType.INTEGER,
    keyword("extract"), keyword("year"), keyword("from"), ACTOR.LAST_UPDATE
);

 Instances can be created using DSL.keyword(String) and overloads.
