bydbctl

bydbctl is the command line tool for interacting with BanyanDB. It is a powerful tool that can be used to create, update, read, and delete schemas. It can also be used to query data stored in streams, measures, and properties.

These are several ways to install:

Get binaries from download.
Build from sources to get latest features.

The config file named .bydbctl.yaml will be created in $HOME folder after the first CRUD command is applied.

> more ~/.bydbctl.yaml

group: ""

bydbctl leverages HTTP endpoints to retrieve data instead of gRPC.

HTTP client

Users could select any HTTP client to access the HTTP based endpoints. The default address is localhost:17913/api

TLS

TLS is supported by bydbctl.--tls=true and --cert <cert_file> are the flags to enable TLS and specify the certificate file. If you want to ignore the certificate verification, use --insecure=true.
