Command Line Interface
The openLooKeng CLI provides a terminal-based interactive shell for running queries. The CLI is a runnable JAR file, so it can be run as java -jar ./hetu-cli-*.jar
.
Download CLI jar file corresponding to the server’s version, e.g. hetu-cli-1.0.0-executable.jar
, and run:
java -jar ./hetu-cli-1.0.0-executable.jar --server localhost:8080 --catalog hive --schema default
Run the CLI with the --help
option to see the available options.
By default, the results of queries are paginated using the less
program which is configured with a carefully selected set of options. This behavior can be overridden by setting the environment variable OPENLOOKENG_PAGER
to the name of a different program such as more
, or set it to an empty value to completely disable pagination.
