NAME
ndb_select_all - print rows from an NDB table
SYNOPSIS
ndb_select_all -c connect_string tbl_name -d db_name [> file_name]
DESCRIPTION
ndb_select_all prints all rows from an NDB table to stdout.
Usage:
ndb_select_all -c connect_string tbl_name -d db_name [> file_name]
Additional Options:
· --lock=lock_type, -l lock_type
Employs a lock when reading the table. Possible values for
lock_type are:
· 0: Read lock
· 1: Read lock with hold
· 2: Exclusive read lock
There is no default value for this option.
· --order=index_name, -o index_name
Orders the output according to the index named index_name. Note
that this is the name of an index, not of a column, and that
the index must have been explicitly named when created.
· --descending, -z
Sorts the output in descending order. This option can be used
only in conjunction with the -o (--order) option.
· --header=FALSE
Excludes column headers from the output.
· --useHexFormat -x
Causes all numeric values to be displayed in hexadecimal
format. This does not affect the output of numerals contained
in strings or datetime values.
· --delimiter=character, -D character
Causes the character to be used as a column delimiter. Only
table data columns are separated by this delimiter.
The default delimiter is the tab character.
· --disk
Adds a disk reference column to the output. The column is
nonempty only for Disk Data tables having nonindexed columns.
· --rowid
Adds a ROWID column providing information about the fragments
in which rows are stored.
· --gci
Adds a column to the output showing the global checkpoint at
which each row was last updated. See Section 17.1, “MySQL
Cluster Overview”, and Section 17.5.4.2, “MySQL Cluster Log
Events”, for more information about checkpoints.
· --tupscan, -t
Scan the table in the order of the tuples.
· --nodata
Causes any table data to be omitted.
Sample Output:
Output from a MySQL SELECT statement:
mysql> SELECT * FROM ctest1.fish;
+----+-----------+
| id | name |
+----+-----------+
| 3 | shark |
| 6 | puffer |
| 2 | tuna |
| 4 | manta ray |
| 5 | grouper |
| 1 | guppy |
+----+-----------+
6 rows in set (0.04 sec)
Output from the equivalent invocation of ndb_select_all:
shell> ./ndb_select_all -c localhost fish -d ctest1
id name
3 [shark]
6 [puffer]
2 [tuna]
4 [manta ray]
5 [grouper]
1 [guppy]
6 rows returned
NDBT_ProgramExit: 0 - OK
Note that all string values are enclosed by square brackets
(“[...]”) in the output of ndb_select_all. For a further example,
consider the table created and populated as shown here:
CREATE TABLE dogs (
id INT(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
name VARCHAR(25) NOT NULL,
breed VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY pk (id),
KEY ix (name)
)
TABLESPACE ts STORAGE DISK
ENGINE=NDBCLUSTER;
INSERT INTO dogs VALUES
(´´, ´Lassie´, ´collie´),
(´´, ´Scooby-Doo´, ´Great Dane´),
(´´, ´Rin-Tin-Tin´, ´Alsatian´),
(´´, ´Rosscoe´, ´Mutt´);
This demonstrates the use of several additional ndb_select_all
options:
shell> ./ndb_select_all -d ctest1 dogs -o ix -z --gci --disk
GCI id name breed DISK_REF
834461 2 [Scooby-Doo] [Great Dane] [ m_file_no: 0 m_page: 98 m_page_idx: 0 ]
834878 4 [Rosscoe] [Mutt] [ m_file_no: 0 m_page: 98 m_page_idx: 16 ]
834463 3 [Rin-Tin-Tin] [Alsatian] [ m_file_no: 0 m_page: 34 m_page_idx: 0 ]
835657 1 [Lassie] [Collie] [ m_file_no: 0 m_page: 66 m_page_idx: 0 ]
4 rows returned
NDBT_ProgramExit: 0 - OK
