== SQL CLI
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The SQL CLI is a stand alone Java application for quick interaction
|
||
|
|
with X-Pack SQL. You can run it like this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
["source","bash",subs="attributes,callouts"]
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
$ java -jar cli-{version}.jar
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can pass the URL of the Elasticsearch instance to connect to as
|
||
|
|
the first parameter:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
["source","bash",subs="attributes,callouts"]
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
$ java -jar cli-{version}.jar https://some.server:9200
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The cli jar is entirely stand alone and can be moved whereever it is
|
||
|
|
needed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once the CLI is running you can use any <<sql-spec,query>> that
|
||
|
|
Elasticsearch supports:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[source,sqlcli]
|
